My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

I put my bag aside, walked to the sofa, and sat down. Kelsey came in with the milk and then asked me, "Miss Reid, do you need me to bring all the Roberts Group auditing documents here?"

I shook my head and took a sip of milk. Then, I turned to Sawyer and said, "I think you must have received the message to visit me today, Mr. Clark. Since you are here, let's sign the agreement.11 Sawyer finally opened his eyes and looked at me with narrowed eyes. He inquired, "So, Miss Reid, have you finally decided to cooperate with Brilliant Audit?"

I frowned and felt a dull pain in my back. I gazed at Kelsey and told her, "Show Mr. Clark the contract."

Kelsey handed the contract to Sawyer. He briefly looked through it. He probably felt that there was nothing much, so he picked up the pen and signed it casually.

After it was done, the following procedures would be handled by the finance department of both Roberts Group and Brilliant Audit. These things were not under my jurisdiction.

Seeing that Sawyer showed no sign of leaving, I frowned slightly and asked, "Mr. Clark, is there anything else?"

Only then did he get up and sat down beside me, saying, "Let's have a meal together."

I was really sick of him. I looked at Kelsey and instructed, "Go downstairs and order takeout for Mr. Clark."

Kelsey was startled for a moment, then promptly nodded and left with a smile.

Sawyer looked unhappy and whined, "Come on, Arianna, why are you so cold? If I invite you to a meal, you should at least accept happily."

I was so annoyed by him that it gave me a headache, and I couldn't stand it anymore. I turned to him and replied sternly, "Mr. Clark, in terms of cooperation, we have nothing more to discuss for the time being. In terms of intimate relationships, I am married. Please respect me and stay away from me."

With a scowl on my face, I then went back to the desk and took out Advancer Tech's documents. I compared them between Roberts Group and Advancer Tech. All these endless tasks served as a huge pain in the neck.

The advantage of being young was that I could let words in one ear and out the other, such as Sawyer's. I thought I had made myself very clear, but he still acted shamelessly and refused to leave my office. I simply ignored him and lowered my head to deal with my own business.

After a while, Kelsey came back with the takeout and put it in front of him politely. She said respectfully, "Mr. Clark, here's your lunch."

He glared at Kelsey and muttered with an unsatisfied tone, "Thank you."

Kelsey smiled faintly and didn't say much. She walked towards me and said, "Miss Reid, Mr. Lawson from Alford Audit has looked for you several times. Do you want to meet him?"

I checked my email but didn't receive any new messages. Thus, I said to Kelsey, "No, not for now."

I was afraid that what had happened last time wouldn't end so easily. Although I had held the bidding as told, I had ignored the winner. It wouldn't end well.

I was afraid that they would stir up trouble.

"You should meet him. Perhaps it can solve a lot of trouble." Sawyer, who was eating in the take-out, interrupted and said to me, "I forgot to tell you that Brilliant Audit only takes responsibility for Roberts Group's business, not others."

I frowned at this. "What do you mean?"

He put down the cutleries and looked at me, saying, "If I remember correctly, Roberts Group went public last year and merged with Shelley Group. If anything goes down in Shelley Group, you should be responsible for it, right?"

"So, Mr. Clark, are you saying that you are only helping with Roberts Group's auditing, but not Shelley Group's?" I asked, feeling a little vexed.

He nodded and answered, "Roberts Group's auditing work alone is already enormous. If we add on Shelley Group's, I'm afraid our final report won't be able to catch up to next quarter's weekly publication."
