"Roxanna, your cheeks are quite flushed. Are you feeling unwell?" Nicole expressed her concern for Roxanna in a hushed tone.
Roxanna couldn't afford any further complications. If anything were to happen, she would be too far from home to return promptly.
Instantly, Roxanna's cheeks turned an even deeper shade of red, resembling a ripe apple, which was even more alarming than before.
"Roxanna, your face has turned even redder." Nicole was taken aback and quickly tugged on Chloe's sleeve to point out Roxanna's flushed cheeks on the screen.
Chloe shook her head, glancing at the two individuals on the screen, and softly said, "Let's get started; we don't have much time, and Nicole shouldn't stay up too late."
Sigh, looks like it's true that pregnancy can make you a bit scatterbrained. She can't even discern something so simple.
"Alright, alright, Mr. Quill, please begin." Roxanna, grateful for Chloe's intervention, quickly addressed Isaac, hoping he would start speaking soon.
Isaac, however, looked at Roxanna with a somewhat enigmatic smile but still didn't show any intention of speaking.
Unsure of Isaac's intentions, Roxanna grew anxious, and she quickly turned to Chloe on the screen, seeking her assistance.
Chloe shook her head in helplessness. She didn't know what to do either.
Indeed, Roxanna was inexperienced in such situations.
"Mr. Quill," Chloe spoke up.
With Nicole's pregnancy-induced naivety, only Chloe could assist Roxanna in this predicament.
"Well, here's the thing. If we're going to collaborate extensively between our two companies, the overseas branch must also be involved. Currently, our overseas company..." Isaac nodded and began to explain, no longer teasing Roxanna beside him.
Chloe studied Isaac's eyes. Despite his constant smile, his eyes remained cold. It was a clearly insincere smile. Moreover, she had heard that Isaac was close to Colton.

What a waste of reading! This could have been an excellent novel if it hadn't skipped chapters after 531 and then everything is garbled. Get your act together if you still want a reading audience!!!...
