Chapter 1366 Isaac’s Suspicious

Roxanna wore a rather disdainful look on her face as she stared at the man sitting in her office. However, she tried her best to contain her emotions, as she didn't want to show any distaste toward the man. She was worried that their partnership would be affected if Isaac saw the look in her eyes.

However, Roxanna's attempts at concealing her emotions made her seem like she was sympathizing with Isaac more than anything. This made Isaac rather confused—he wasn't sure why the woman seemed to pity him. Did I make a wrong assumption? Well, this is just an excuse, anyway. I'm mainly here to help Colton ask about Nicole. There's nothing wrong with that, is there? Isaac tried to comfort himself. Regardless, he was certain that he had a valid reason to drop by.

"Why do you keep looking at me like that, Miss Miller?" Isaac felt rather uneasy when Roxanna didn't respond after a long time. She was simply staring at him with the same look of sympathy in her eyes. Roxanna returned to her senses then, and she realized how she might have gotten lost in her thoughts for a while. She hastily put on a pleasant and professional expression before explaining herself. "You don't have to worry about this, Mr. Quill. We will not breach or terminate the contract at all. Furthermore, we'll definitely achieve what we've promised you guys. We're earnest and responsible individuals even without the contact in place."

Roxanna hoped that Isaac would learn from his lesson after this time. She was concerned that he wouldn't be able to maintain his position with an IQ like his. All of a sudden, Roxanna was reminded of some information that she had found about Isaac on the Internet. It's true that the information online can't be trusted. He sure is different from what was described online.

Isaac didn't know what was going on in Roxanna's mind, but he could tell that it wasn't anything good, because there was a rather disdainful look on the woman's face. He met her gaze for a moment before he quickly looked away. He didn't want to forget his actual reason for paying a visit. "Well, even though we're just partners, and though I may not have the right to know more about your overseas research center, I'd still like to ask a few things about it. I want to know about your developments, as I'd like to use that information for further consideration in our future work together."

Isaac spoke while observing the look on the woman's face. He was hoping that he would be able to get something from her expression, and as he expected, Roxanna's expression didn't disappoint. Her facial features stiffened as she wondered why Isaac was inquiring for such information. However, she figured that it would not harm them if Isaac wanted to know more about the company. After all, they both might benefit from it if their companies could form further partnerships.

"Our overseas research center has already had some discussions about partnerships, but I can't be sure about the details. If you wish to know more about this, I can hop into a meeting with some of the people from the overseas teams, and I can get back to you soon," Roxanna replied in a formal tone. She was careful not to reveal anything else, such as pieces of unnecessary information about Nicole.
