She averted her gaze from his lips and looked aside. "Sir, what do you think?"
Although he was distracted by the woman before him, he knew that he had to focus on his work. He glanced through the report in her hand and recalled her words. He then nodded. "Reject it."
"Okay." She made a note on her tablet and rolled the stylus between her fingers. "There's a message from Ms. Samantha, inviting you to a banquet on the tenth of next monthโฆ"
"Reject it." He interrupted with a slight frown.
She knew that he didn't like attending banquets unless they were business banquets. She also knew that Ms. Samantha was his sister, with whom he was estranged. However, she still delivered the rest of the message. "Mr. Preston has confirmed his attendance."
He thought hard about it, cursed softly, and then raised his head to look at her. "Call Liam here on your way out."
She nodded. "Okay. At what time would you like to have your morning coffee?"
"In ten minutes, thanks."
