Cecilia’s gaze was dull. She knew there was no changing the 

situation. Unbeknownst to her, Larry had stiffened because of Sean’s 

words. She wasn’t aware of this. She thanked Sean and turned to 

leave. 

“Wait, Ms. Worthington!” Larry cried. 

Cecilia stopped and asked politely, “Is there anything else you need, Mr. Walker? 

She didn’t think Larry would change his mind. She thought this was about something else. But what Larry said next surprised her. 

“I just thought it over again, Ms. Worthington, and I think your proposal is pretty good. I think it’d be good for us to work together!” 

“Really?” Cecilia looked at Larry anxiously. 

“Of course.” Larry was actually even more nervous than her. After all, Sean was the one who’d spoken up on Cecilia’s behalf. 

Cecilia’s eyes widened. Before this, she never would’ve imagined that Larry would change his mind. Was it because of Sean? 

She turned to look at him. At this moment, Larry continued, “I’ll call you about the contract tomorrow once I’ve had a meeting with my employees.” 

His attitude was completely different from before. 

“Thank you, Mr. Walker!” Cecilia was excited. 

“You’re welcome, Ms. Worthington.” 

“I’ll leave you to it, Mr. Walker. Cecilia knew Larry’s attitude toward her had changed because of Sean. She was smart enough to know

that she shouldn’t linger and disturb them. 

“I look forward to working with you, Ms. Worthington. Goodbye.” 

“Goodbye.” Cecilia turned and left. Before that, she sneaked a glance 

at Sean. 

Once Cecilia was gone, Larry confirmed with Sean that he’d done the right thing. “Mr. Lakeworth, do you know Ms. Worthington?” 

“Yeah.” Sean nodded. 

“How about the profit ratio?” Larry asked. 

Sean’s answer was simple. “Do your best to help the Worthington family.” 

“I understand, sir!” Larry was secretly stunned. Sean and Cecilia had to have a special relationship if Sean could say something like that. He’d almost made a huge mistake earlier! 

“I’ll leave everything else to you, Mr. Walker. I have to go now,” Sean said. He wanted to go after Cecilia as soon as possible. 

“Goodbye, Mr. Lakeworth,” Larry said respectfully. 

Sean left. He thought Cecilia would’ve already been gone by now, but he saw her standing by the door as soon as he stepped out of the 

building. 

She looked happy to see him. “Hi!” 

“Were you waiting for me?” Sean’s eyes lit up. 

“Yep.” Cecilia nodded. “Thank you so much for your help earlier!” 

“You’re being much too polite, Ms. Worthington. Mr. Walker only agreed to work with you because you had a good proposal.” Sean smiled. 

Cecilia looked at him. He had a gentle smile and was easygoing.

More importantly, he wasn’t being arrogant with her despite doing her such a huge favor. She asked, “Um, so… Would you happen to be free 

later?” 

“Sure. What’s up?” 

“Well, uh … I wanted to treat you to afternoon tea to thank you for 

your help. Of course, I’m not saying that it’s enough to repay you. I just wanted to thank you. If you think it’s too much trouble, you don’t have to go-” 

“It’s no trouble at all. I would love to have afternoon tea with you.” Sean smiled gently. 

“Really?” Cecilia looked at him excitedly. She had a chance to thank him properly! “That’s great! Do you prefer coffee or tea?” 

“I’m fine with anything. You can pick whatever you like,” Sean said amicably. He wanted to take the opportunity to confirm Cecilia’s identity. 

“Let’s go to Half-Isle Cafe, then. The coffee there is purer than most. other cafes, and it’s nearby. It won’t take up too much of your time.” 

Cecilia sounded excited. 

“Sure.” Sean chuckled. 

Ten minutes later, they arrived at Half-Isle Cafe. After taking their seats, Cecilia ordered two of their signature cappuccinos. As she stirred her coffee, she said happily, “The cappuccinos are really famous. Go ahead and try it.” 

“Okay.” Sean took a sip of his coffee as Cecilia watched. Then, he said, “It really is pretty delicious.” 

“Right?” Cecilia beamed. “Oh, right. I haven’t introduced myself yet. My name’s Cecilia Worthington. Thanks a lot for helping me out earlier. It’s a pleasure to meet you!”

“The pleasure is mine, Ms. Worthington.” Sean smiled. 

“Seriously, thanks a lot for earlier. If not for you speaking up for me, Mr. Walker wouldn’t have agreed to work with me. Speaking of which, how do you and Mr. Walker know each other? Before you, I’ve never heard of him taking anyone else’s suggestions into consideration.” 

Cecilia looked at Sean curiously. She knew her place-the fact that Larry had agreed to work with her was intricately linked to Sean. 

“Well…” Sean said half-jokingly, “Would you believe me if I were to tell you I’m his boss?” 

“You’re his boss?” Cecilia’s eyes widened in surprise. She murmured,” But I heard Diego Black’s the one behind him.” 

Sean laughed. “What if I were to tell you that Diego’s also a subordinate of mine?” 

Cecilia could tell he was joking. She smiled. “You’re really funny.” 

“I think so, too.” Sean continued laughing. 

“Oh, right. I still don’t know your name.”> 

“Me?” Sean smiled. “You can call me Lake-” 

At this moment, Cecilia’s phone, which she’d placed on the table, started vibrating. She checked it and saw it was a call from Tina.
