Chapter 148
As soon as Stacey picked up Jeremy, his small hands wrapped tightly around her neck, as if holding a treasure, and refused to let go. Hayden looked at them and finally said, “Let’s go into the office.”
The office was just around the corner, and they went in quickly. Stacey subconsciously observed the office. It was large, decorated simply in a minimalist style, and resembled the cold air Hayden gave off.
“If you get tired of carrying him, just put him down. You don’t have to hold him all the time. Let him play by himself, Hayden said to Stacey
Stacey smiled and agreed. “Okay.” It had to be said that with the appearance of Jeremy, Stacey wasn’t so nervous now.
Jeremy had been staring at Stacey since the beginning. His eyes were sparkling. The more he looked at her, the more he liked her. Lynn looked at the child and then Becky. Finally, she smiled and joked, “Is this kid a fan of Becky?”
As soon as these words were spoken, Martin, Samuel, and Jeremy looked at Lynn. Even Stacey subconsciously looked at her. Lynn’s scalp tingled, and she suddenly held her breath, not daring to move.
Stacey suddenly figured it out. Well, yeah, Jeremy should be my tan, right? Is that why he likes me so much, even though we just met? There are a lot of fans on the internet, including many children of other celebrities, she thought, She looked at Jeremy and asked with a smile, “Are you my fan?”
Jeremy looked at Stacey and nodded. Then, he seemed to remember something and quickly shook his head vigorously. Stacey was puzzled by his response.
Hayden frowned, but he didn’t explain. He said to Stacey. “There’s a lounge nearby. You can rest there for a while. If you need anything, just find my assistant, Samuel. You can go shoot the endorsement after you’ve rested”
Stacey hurriedly agreed, “Okay, thanks.”
Hayden nodded and returned to his desk. He started typing on the computer, apparently resuming handling company documents. Stacey and Lynn looked at each other, feeling a little strange.
Samuel hurriedly said, “Ms. Carter, Ms. Fox, this way, please.” He took them to the lounge and had them sit on the couch. there. Then, he brought out various drinks and snacks to entertion them. After arriving at the lounge, Jeremy came down from Stacey’s arms. Although she was no longer carrying him, Jeremy stuck close to Stacey.
Samuel brought a box of Legos and Jeremy play with them. Jeremy glanced at Stacey and then pushed Legos toward her. Stacey was amused and took the initiative to open the box to play with him.
The minutes flew by with something for them to kill the time with. An hour later, Lynn reminded her that she had to shoo the endorsement. Stacey looked at the time and remembered her job. After putting the last Lego parts together, she smiled and said to Jeremy, “Okay, it’s done!*
Jeremy looked at her. Stacey hesitated momentarily, then carefully said to him, “Jeremy, I’m going to shoot an endorsement Can I play with you next time?”
He didn’t answer, and Stacey hesitated for a while. Finally, she stood up and walked over to Hayden sitting at the desk in the work area outside. Behind the desk, Hayden also heard the noise and looked up at her. Stacey was nervous but still said, “Mr. Hoggard, I’ve rested well. Can I shoot the endorsement now?”
Hayden nodded and said, “Okay.” The next moment, he shut down the computer and stood up.
Stacey looked at him in confusion. Even Lynn was shocked and thought, “What does he mean by this? Is he going to watch Becky shoot the endorsement himself?
When a typical small company hired a celebrity to endorse its products, it wasn’t unusual for the boss to accompany the

celebrity during the endorsement shoot. However, this was Hoggard Technologies, a top–notch company. Surely, a simple endorsement could be handled by the planning department. Regardless, Hayden closed his laptop, put away the documents, and walked out from behind the desk. Jeremy’s face had a blank expression as he followed them. They all went downstairs.
On the 15th floor, Daniel from the planning department received a notification from Samuel, and his whole face froze. He then quickly informed the entire department, asking everyone to stop working immediately so they could wait at the elevator to greet the CEO and Jeremy.
Everyone wondered why they needed to turn this into a production over an endorsement shoot. The hundreds of employees in the planning department were stunned. Everyone reacted and hurriedly cleaned up their desks. They quickly put away their snacks into the drawers and tidied up their messy desks.
Everyone moved quickly. In less than a minute, the planning department’s office was spotless. Everyone left their workstations, followed Daniel out, and waited in two lines outside the elevator on the 15th floor.
It was only a few minutes, but it felt like a century before the elevator stopped at the floor, and the door slowly opened. Everyone held their breaths and looked at the people in the elevator nervously.
Jayden walked out of the elevator with his long legs, followed by Stacey. Jeremy trailed closely behind her. Finally, Samuel and Lynn emerged.
