Chapter 1685
The secretary scratched her cheeks. “She didn’t give US a name, but she’s been here for a long time.”
Noilace got up suddenly and hurried out of the office, followed by the secretary and Edison.
At the lobby...
Daisie was sleepy after waiting so long and could not wait any longer, so she got up and left without hesitation.
She walked out of the building and reached her arm out to hail a cab. But she was stopped by a figure that
appeared behind her, approached, and pulled her back.
She was caught off guard and slammed into his arms.
Daisie was stunned and raised her head. And judging from Noilace’s heaving chest, it seemed that he had rushed
out of the building in order to catch up to her. He then took a few deep breaths and calmed him breathing down,
“why didn’t you call me?”
“You didn’t reply when I texted you and weren’t you in a meeting?” Daisie lowered her gaze. “I was afraid that you
were busy, and I’d disturb—”

arms bulged slightly, so one could only imagine how much strength he was exerting.
Daisie buried herself in his arms and nudged him. “I’m about to run out of breath.”
He loosened his embrace a little but kept holding her and didn’t let go. “Dummy, when you saw that I didn’t reply to
you, didn’t you know how to give me a call? How do you know if I’m busy if you don’t call me?”
She looked up at him. “You were in a meeting. If that doesn’t spell busy, what does?”
“I’m busy.” He stroked her cheek with his palm. “But I’ll answer all your calls no matter how busy I am.”
Daisie blushed.
The passersby walked by them and peeped at them.
Daisie felt a little embarrassed, so she broke free from his arms. “ I’m heading back already.”
“Since you’re already here...” Nollace grabbed her wrist and leaned closer to her ear, “Accompany me to the end
of the day and get off work with me.”
She looked away, feeling pissed. “You’ve made me wait for so long. I’m not going to accompany you tonight.”
He narrowed his eyes. “Then I’ll carry you back into the building.”
As he stretched out his hands and wrapped them around her waist, she avoided it with a smile. However, Nollace
pulled her back into his arms. “How dare you escape me?”
She panicked, afraid of being seen, and lowered her voice. “I ’ll go with you, but you’re not allowed to carry me.”
Nollace let go of her. He no longer carried her, but holding hands was still a must.
When Noilace and Daisie walked into the lobby, all the employees were astounded.
‘It’s rumored that Young Master Knowles has a girlfriend. It’s indeed true!’
Compared to Edison, the secretary’s expression looked even more dumbfounded, as if she had just seen one of the
world’s wonders.
Noilace took a glance at Edison as if he was hinting at something. Edison understood it, nodded, and waited until he
walked into the elevator with Daisie.
The secretary wondered, “what does Mr. Knowles want from US with that gaze?”
Edison did not answer. He walked up to the front desk and tapped on the marble countertop, “who from the
administration department answered your call just now?”
The female employee replied cautiously, “It was Bella.”

After Edison left, the female receptionist’s heart was racing, she was really glad that she was not the person who
had offended Mr. Knowles’ girlfriend.
And when the secretary saw his response to the order given through a single gaze, she was completely farfetched.
‘This is as expected of Mr. Knowles’ confidant, who else would be able to receive that much information with just
one look?
‘It seems that I’ll have to pay more attention in the future so that I won’t end up on the other end of this situation
too.’
The large office had plenty of light, and it had an excellent and strategic geographical position. One could see the
Thaiwon River from the window facing south, and to the north was a bustling street with a lot of traffic.
Daisie stood in front of the window and looked down at the city. It was her first time getting such a clear view of the
city.
Noilace hugged her from behind, rested his chin on the top of her head, and let off a chuckle. “I’m glad that you’ve
taken the initiative to come to see me.”
She choked and responded stubbornly, “I didn’t come to you because I wanted to see you.”
