"I'm not going to approve it, of course," Emmeline said with a smirk. "You should go through the proper procedure."

"Emma, can't you do me a favor? No, can't you do Adrien and me a favor? Please approve my proposal!"

"I said I'm not approving it," Emmeline said. "You've asked the wrong person!"

She turned around and walked away. Adam pounced on her. "Emma!"

Emmeline quickly dodged aside.

Adam did not give up. He pounced at her again. "Don't go yet, Emma!"

Just as he was about to get his hands on Emmeline, a figure suddenly appeared between them.

Adam was shoved aside. However, there was a loud sound of cloth tearing.

When the dust settled, everyone realized that Benjamin was suddenly in the room.

They did not know when he had come in.

One of the sleeves of his suit jacket was already torn. Adam had torn it in the tussle.

"Benjamin? Why are you here?" Emmeline was surprised.

Benjamin shot a glance at his torn sleeve and said, "I was eating downstairs."
