Chapter 722
"Second floor, by the window."
"Oh, alright."
While trying to control her wildly beating heart, Shirley grabbed her bag and went up to the second
floor. She looked around and saw Garrick in a sky-blue shirt sitting by the window.
He had his sleeves rolled up around his elbows, revealing his muscled arms. The sapphire Rolex watch
on his wrist added to his noble temperament and striking appearance. With that visual, his mature and
charming attributes were off the charts.
He's so handsome.
Shirley came to a stop before him and nodded lightly. "Sorry to keep you waiting, President Brennan."
"I've only just arrived."
He then motioned for her to take a seat, indicating that she sat across from him."What would you like to
eat?"
"I'm not picky. Anything is fine."
While sitting in front of him, Shirley revealed a natural yet sweet smile, which was lovely to see.

"Sure."
"Girls do love themselves some desserts, right? Why don't I order a strawberry mousse for you?"
"Thank you, President Brennan."
She suddenly felt that Garrick was very considerate and he was not as cold as he was yesterday.
Instead, she could feel that he was rather happy today and his attitude was kinder than before.
After Garrick ordered the food and a bottle of red wine, the waiter left and he finally looked at Shirley.
While gazing at her, he subconsciously scanned her attire from head to toe. She was dressed in a
black suit with her hair in a ponytail and her bangs were swaying in the wind, but it did not look messy.
Instead, it accentuated her fair face.
With her natural-looking makeup, her lips were a beautiful rose pink and she looked like an innocent
young lady.
Although her beauty was comparable to Sofia's, Sofia had a more stunning and arrogant temperament
than Shirley. In fact, Garrick could not understand why Skyler was more interested in Shirley's type.
"My sincerest apologies. I had a little too much to drink yesterday. You sent me back to my home, but I
forgot to ask someone to do the same for you. How did you get home?" He pretended not to know and
asked.
"Yesterday..." Shirley laughed awkwardly. "I booked an Uber home."
She chose not to tell the truth.
Meanwhile, Garrick could only feign ignorance despite knowing the truth.
His apartment was far from the city center and there were no e- hailing cabs nearby, let alone hailing
one by the roadside, so she must have walked a long way before she could hail one.
"That's great. After I sobered up today, I was worried about how you got home. It looks like I have
nothing to worry about.
"You're too kind, President Brennan. It's only a small matter."
When Shirley saw Garrick speaking with such elegance and politeness, she suddenly felt a sense of
admiration for him.
No wonder Garrick is so popular among women. Even I am attracted to his charm, let alone other
women.
The two exchanged pleasantries and the waiter brought over their dishes. "Your food has all arrived.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPlease enjoy your meal."
After the waiter left, Shirley began to eat while occasionally chatting with Garrick.
She found that he was not as cold as others had described him. Instead, he was humorous and it was
relaxing to be with him.
"You tried so hard to persuade me to cooperate with you yesterday, but why didn't you mention a word
about it today?"
He picked up his glass of red wine off the table and sipped on his Romanée-Conti before asking.
Shirley, who was enjoying her pasta, set down her fork, pulled out a tissue, and wiped her red lips. "I'm
afraid that discussing business with you after working hours might spoil your mood."
The book she read earlier mentioned about not discussing work over a meal when it was the client who
asked for a meal together.
"It's alright. I'm all ears."
"Really?"
"Yes."
"Alright, then. Let me introduce our company, Vincere Games..."
Now that she had the opportunity, she elaborated on the company's situation and development to him,
as well as the company's future plans and trends.
