Chapter 1402 Teased

"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.

Chloe suddenly recalled the phone call from Roxanna, which had mentioned the connection between the two men.

Someone like Isaac, with connections to Colton and multiple influential companies abroad, was certainly not a

straightforward individual.

Sure, Roxanna had grown a lot, but she still appeared quite childish in front of Isaac, and Chloe couldn't help

thinking if Roxanna might be taken advantage of in this situation.

The idea made Chloe furrow her brows. I'll have to keep Roxanna at a distance from Isaac somehow.

"Chloe?"

Nicole and Isaac had nearly concluded their discussion. She felt reassured about this collaboration since Isaac and

Colton were close friends.

Moreover, there was a possibility she could gather some insights into the rivalry between Colton and Kendrick at a

critical moment to help Colton.

Chloe came to herself and looked at Nicole, nodding. "No problem."

"Alright, it's settled then. Roxanna, when it's time to sign the contract, forward it to the legal department. You can

sign on my behalf," said Nicole as she nodded at Roxanna after receiving Chloe's affirmation. Then, she glanced at

Isaac, giving him a slight nod as a sign of courtesy.

"Okay." Roxanna agreed, but she hadn't looked at Isaac throughout the conversation.

Their proximity was quite noticeable, and Roxanna wondered what the man beside her was thinking. He was sitting

so close when there was clearly more space available.

"For better communication in the future, Mr. Quill, let's exchange contact information," Chloe suddenly spoke as

they were about to conclude the conversation. She gazed at Isaac with a profound look as if deep in thought.

Roxanna was surprised by the request. Chloe had never proactively exchanged contact information with any guy

before. Could there be an issue with Isaac?

She didn't dare speculate and simply turned to Isaac, awaiting his response.

Isaac was momentarily taken aback but quickly realized what was happening. He nodded and agreed, "Sure, I'll

have Miss Miller send it to you later."
