Ice and Fire novel Chapter 923

Lawrence arrived at the JC Group and headed straight for his office. Since Aria had been occupying his mind, he could not focus on his work.

Ivy immediately entered Lawrence's office with a cup of coffee. When she noticed that he was staring blankly ahead, she knew that he was contemplating.

She put the coffee mug on his desk lightly to avoid creating a sound as she didn't want to disturb him. Then she turned around and was about to take her leave.

"Wait!" Lawrence abruptly stopped her.

Ivy stopped and turned to look at Lawrence. "What can I do for you, Mr. Lawrence?" she asked politely.

"Why do you think Aria suddenly treat me like this?" Lawrence asked with a confused expression. Then he looked out of the window. He really didn't know what to do with Aria.

After reflecting quickly, Ivy could roughly figure out what was troubling her boss. She focused her gaze on Lawrence and gingerly asked, "Did Miss Aria get mad at you?"

"Umm," Lawrence nodded.

Ivy sidled up to Lawrence and stood beside him. She put on a fake frown and guessed, "She might have heard about what happened at the party, and that's why she got angry."

Lawrence didn't respond. He was certain that Aria didn't know that he met Anna at the party. He knew that she only got annoyed and even tried to leave him because of that lunch with Anna.

Ivy fixed her eyes on Lawrence's side profile. She would never get sick of looking at his handsome face. Only in some special situations could she get the chance to be close to her boss and such opportunities were rare so she wanted to take advantage of it. As she watched his scowling face, an idea suddenly came to her mind. Perhaps it was a good chance for her. Lawrence was currently at a loss so she thought she could seize the opportunity and try her best to win his heart.

"Mr. Lawrence, I've already gotten some information about Miss Anna. I learned that you grew up together and you were good friends. Besides, she is a high-born lady. I think she is way much better than Miss Aria. At least she could be of great help to you. If you marry her, it will surely do good to the future of the JC Group. By that time, perhaps our company could earn a reputation worldwide with the support of her family. What do you think?" Ivy spoke in Anna's favor. When she noticed the pensive look on Lawrence face, her mouth curved into a smile. 'It looks like he agrees to what I said, ' she assumed.

Ivy then decided to add fuel to the fire. But this time, she was against Anna which surprised Lawrence a lot.
