Guinevere smiled bitterly then. “There’s a sunk-cost fallacy when it comes to love… So, the longer

you’re in love, the harder it is to let go.”

Then, as if remembering it just then, she turned toward Xavier. “That’s the same for Zeta. She loved

you for years too, and she never gave up, even though you’re pretty much infamous these days.”

Xavier was taken aback that she would mention Zeta, and frowned even as he growled, “Why would

you talk about her for no reason?”

And with that, he turned to leave, with Guinevere watching him from behind.

Believing that he was getting grumpy over Zeta again, she shook her head but kept her silence as she

followed him.

Meanwhile, a bored Stella was reading her script in Weston’s office.

It turns out that his meeting proved to be an extensive one, and Ben had to come in a few times to

reassure her, eventually telling her that the meeting was going to last another hour.

She tried to ask to leave, but Ben would refuse her on each occasion, insisting that Weston had

insisted that she stay before he went home with her.

Naturally, Stella simply could not understand what had gotten into Weston-was he a child, insisting on

leaving work with her?

Ben returned to work after they spoke, though there was a slight commotion outside soon enough.

Stella got to her feet, believing that it would be Weston, only to find an unexpected face: Xavier Ford.

Why was he here? Nonetheless, Xavier did not spot her inside Weston’s office, and instead headed

straight to the secretaries’ offices. It seems that he had recently taken a liking to Daisy-especially her

aloofness toward others-which was just like Weston, not to mention she had turned down his attempts

to invite her out on dates.

In fact, the joy of the hunt had already taken his mind away from his unpleasant mood and Zeta, even

as he moved to stand in front of Daisy.

“Long time no see,” he said in cheesy French, and when he saw that she was staring fixedly at her

laptop, he grinned and quickly found himself a seat.

“Working, huh? Let me have a look…” He scanned the table on the screen, narrowing his eyes as he

did. “Oh, I think there’s a little error over here…” Daisy would always ignore him no matter how he tried

to talk to her before, and any response would just be a gesture of courtesy.

This time, however, she frowned immediately and started searching the spot Xavier pointed out,

exclaiming, “No way!” Xavier could not help chuckling at how naive she was, and Daisy shot him an

annoyed glare in return, realizing that she had been tricked. Taking a deep breath to calm herself just

then, she then said, “I’m sorry, Mr. Xavier Ford, but would you mind going to the conference room to

wait for Mr. Ford?” “I didn’t come here for him-I came here for you,” he said, resting his chin under his

hands as he stared flirtatiously at her. Daisy remained unmoved, however, and simply left to look for

Ben. “Mr. Sullivan…” Even Ben appeared to be put on the spot after Daisy told him about Xavier’s

antics. “Alright, you don’t have to team up on me, I was just going to talk to you a little,” Xavier

exclaimed, not interested in flirting anymore when he saw how upset Daisy was with him. He loved

women who put up a challenge, but Daisy was utterly resistant, making him lose interest or attraction

toward her in general. Getting up on his feet, he walked up to Ben and asked, “Wait, if Weston is

having a meeting, shouldn’t you be staying with him to take minutes?” Daisy began, “Mr. Sullivan has

something more important to do…” However, Ben wheeled on her so quickly right then that she

realized in irritation that she had misspoken.
