Maddox Yardley? What was he doing here? Zaydon was completely puzzled as he stared at Maddox. He was confused to have first run into Minerva before Maddox.
After he was stunned for a couple of seconds, he turned around to look at Linda and the receptionist as he asked, "This is the President's office of Collins Corporation, right? I've not made a mistake, right?" The duo was dumbfounded by his sudden question as they stared at him with a confused look. Linda then smiled at him before explaining, "There's only one President's office in Collins Corporation so how can you possibly have made a mistake?" "Then... the person in there is Sebastian Collins?" Linda nodded her head and gave him a peculiar look.
"Do you have any questions, Mr. Dormer?" Zaydon was so shocked that he was unable to regain his senses. He was unsure of what was going on. All he could do was wave his hand to gesture that he had no problems before entering the room. Zaydon kept staring at Maddox after entering the room since he assumed that he might have recognized the wrong person. However, as he glanced back and forth at him, he was certain that this was the sperson he had seen before. He would never have mistaken him for anyone else but... how did Maddox becSebastian? So, Minerva happened to work here as his secretary? If the duo was still together, why would he still want to get engaged to Monica then? All he did was travel and everything changed so drastically upon his return? Could something have happened to his marriage or perhaps has he regretted getting married? Hmph, this man sure could change his heart pretty fast.
With that thought in mind, Zaydon approached him and gave him a wave while saying, "Hey, it's been a while." Maddox furrowed his brows, "Who are you?" Zaydon was speechless.
"Really now? I've never crossed you back then so you shouldn't be so vengeful, right? You don't even want to acknowledgeanymore?" As Maddox stared at the stranger in front of him, he presumed that he must have known him judging from his tone even though he had no recollection of ever knowing him before. Ever since he lost his memories, everyone felt like a stranger to him.
"Do we know each other before?" Hence, Maddox asked another question.

What was going on? Maddox didn't recognize him anymore? Zaydon thought that he was joking with him but his cold and serious demeanour made him seem like he was not joking at all. He noticed the extremely foreign gaze in his eyes and it seemed that he truly did not recognize him at all.
He suddenly did not know what to say anymore since he only cto the Collins Corporation just to see what kind of a person his future brother-in-law was but he did not expect to be in such a situation. "Why are you looking for me?" Zaydon felt helpless and all he could do was introduce himself but Maddox coldly told him, "My secretary has already toldwho you are before you entered. If you don't have anything else to deal with, please don't interrupt me." He coldly reminded him after he said that, "We're still at work right now." Zaydon was speechless.
Fine, he was still as cold as usual. The only difference was that he didn't recognize him.
Zaydon had plenty of questions but he just found this entire ordeal too peculiar, so he decided to only look into it when he got back. He shook his head, "Nope, all I wanted was to get to know you. Since you're working now, I won't be interrupting you then." Maddox was lost in his thoughts after he left.
He wondered if they knew each other judging from Zaydon's gaze earlier.
The receptionist and the secretary, Linda had already left by the tZaydon exited the office. He returned according to the spath he cfrom earlier but paused when passing by the secretary's room. He ran into Minerva here earlier and the receptionist told him that she happened to be the secretary's assistant.
He seemed to have somewhat understood why he would run into her here in a sudden moment. However... why would she work as the secretary's assistant though? While he was still thinking, he could hear the sound of approaching footsteps and when he looked up, he noticed Minerva returning with a folder.
He immediately strode over and stood in her way.
Minerva was stunned for a while before frowning after noticing Zaydon.
Why must she run into him again? "We meet again." Zaydon cracked a grin and winked at her before saying, "Are you available to chat somewhere else?" However, Minerva immediately refused, "Nope." She walked by him immediately after that.
Zaydon felt a little helpless since the woman was known to be unpredictable, so all he could do was to speak to her with her back turned, "I won't use up too much of your time. We can talk here." However, Minerva seemed as if she had missed what he said as she entered the secretary's room right away.
Zaydon was not angry. He started thinking while rubbing his chin with his hand.
Both of these people seemed to be more hotheaded than the other. He thought he might have to really clear things up when he got back before anything else.

"Tellwhat's going on? Why is Maddox suddenly the heir of the Collins family, and he is engaged to you?" Monica who was watching a on her computer while cuddling a pillow felt her blood boil after hearing what Zaydon said. She exclaimed, "Didn't you promise not to interfere with my own affairs, brother? Why did you probe into it behind my back then?" Zaydon stretched out his hands helplessly upon seeing her enraged look.
"I didn't investigate. All I wanted was to know who exactly had my sister caught feelings for since you m previously only had feelings for Maddox, right? I knew that anyone who is worthy of your feelings must be extremely capable... So I went to the Collins Corporation with that intention in mind." Monica did not want to listen to his explanation at all as she furiously exclaimed, "You went back on your word and you don't even respectas your sister at all."
"Monica, I just wanted to know who that person is and besides, if you actually were to be engaged to him, do you think I won't know who he is in the future?" Zaydon spoke in a serious tone and his face darkened after saying all of this, "Are you hiding anything fromsince you didn't wantto know?" Monica's expressions changed drastically upon hearing this as she frantically looked away.
"You promised me." "Yeah, I promised you, alright. But before I did, you didn't tellthat he is the person you're gonna be engaged to, right? Monica turned around and furiously questioned, "So what if that's the case? So what if he's the person I will be engaged to? I just like him and I want to be with him. I am your own biological sister, so isn't my happiness important?" "Do you think you'll be happy with him?" Zaydon snorted, "He likes you? If I remembered correctly, you were the one that brought up the engagement to grandpa last night, right? Not to mention, what's up with him?"
"Enough!" Monica rudely interrupted Zaydon, "I don't want to talk to you anymore. Since you don't seeas your sister, then stop sticking your ET nose into my affairs in the future. My engagement has nothing to do with you and if you continue to intervene, I'll let grandpa know!" Zaydon sighed helplessly.
"Why must you be so obsessed with him?" Would love actually cause people to lose their sense of rationality?
