Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 632 Cut The Ties

After lunch, Oscar was about to return to his office after sending Olivia off. Unexpectedly, Isabella tagged along with him shamelessly and called out, “Oscar!”

Oscar halted in his tracks and turned to utter grimly, “Isabella Walker, heed my words. Don’t ever think that you can do as you like in the office just because you are now the goddaughter of the Clintons. I hope you can at least try to prove yourself by contributing to the company. What’s the point of having a high educational qualification if you’re just a good-for-nothing employee?”

Unfazed by his words, Isabella chuckled. “Oscar, I believe I’ve put effort at work. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have appointed me as the director, would you? Since Aunt Olivia has announced to everyone that I’m her goddaughter, I’ll mind my manners. From now onwards, we are considered siblings. Thus, I hope you can trust me, putting aside all the prejudice against me. Let’s try to get on well with each other, okay?”

Looking intently into her eyes, Oscar stated, “I hope so.”

After that, he turned to step into the building without sparing her another glance. Isabella stood rooted to the spot as she gazed at his retreating figure till it was gradually out of sight. “Oscar, even though you’ve remarried, I’m convinced I’ll still be able to snatch you from that woman. As long as you’re still alive, it’s just a matter of time before you become mine!” she hissed, laughing slyly as she strutted into the building on her heels.

Moments later, she brought various types of documents to the top floor. After stepping out of the elevator, she headed straight to the secretary’s office and asked courteously, “Yuliana, is Mr. Clinton in his room? I’ve brought quite a few copies of documents for his signature.”

The latter led her to Oscar’s room and knocked on the door. “Mr. Clinton, Ms. Walker is here.”

“Let her come in!” Oscar’s voice sounded from the room.

Isabella entered with a stack of documents and stated formally, “Mr. Clinton, these are the proposals on the projects we’re collaborating with Garnerland Technology and Yendall Technology. Please take a look and place your signature if everything is fine for you.”

Oscar took the documents from her and roughly scanned through the copies. After ensuring everything was fine, he signed them accordingly.

Shortly after, he handed Isabella the signed documents and complimented, “You’ve done well this round. I predict our company will gain a profit of approximately forty-six percent. Anyway, I hope you can keep it up to prove your competency at work to me.”

In an instant, Isabella’s lips curved into a smile. The former’s words had seemingly cheered her up.

“Mr. Clinton, thanks for your compliment. If there’s nothing else, I’ll get back to work first,” she replied courteously with a smile.

Oscar only nodded without uttering any words.

Meanwhile, Isabella turned to walk away swiftly, bottling up her emotions.

Deep down, she had made up her mind to come up with a different approach. Instead of clinging to Oscar, she decided to take things step-by-step by impressing him with her competence at work gradually. Hmph! I’m sure Oscar will be impressed by me via our frequent interaction at work! Sooner or later, I’ll win his heart!

On the other hand, Oscar was unaware of what was playing in Isabella’s mind. He was more than happy when the latter seemed to be enlightened and stopped entangling him. Feeling relieved, he buried himself in his work the whole afternoon.

By the time he received Amelia’s call, it was already six in the evening. She asked him not to fetch her as she would go straight to the hospital.
