Fortunately, Uriah wasn’t the type to linger. He left after dropping off the dessert.
Alice drove back to the company alone, but this scene was coincidentally witnessed by Clifton, who was also there to buy dessert.
When he arrived at Michael’s office, Clifton threw the dessert on Michael’s desk.
“Guess who I saw today?” He blinked at Michael.
Michael didn’t even look up. “Not interested p>
Clifton wasn’t upset and sat directly across from Michael.
“I saw Uriah getting out of Alice’s car and bringing her dessert. They seem to be getting along well p>
Michael looked up just in time to see Alice walking into the secretary’s office.
She distributed the desserts to her colleagues and then knocked on his office door with some documents in hand.
Clifton raised an eyebrow. “She is quite generous p>
“She doesn’t like sweets, Michael snorted.
Clifton shook his head with a smile. He knew Michael understood everything, even if he didn’t say it out loud.
But it seemed Michael understood nothing at the same time, at least not what he wanted.
‘Come in p>
Alice entered after hearing the voice and nodded at Clifton. “Mr. Farley p>
After greeting each other, Alice placed a resume on Michael’s desk.
“Mr. Johnson, I’ve found the one you want. Please take a look p>
The girl in the resume photo looked young and lively, with a proper and innocent appearance, just the type Michael liked.
Michael’s fingers tapped on the resume.
“Very impressive, Alice p>
He had only told her to hire someone yesterday, and she had already done it today. She really planned to leave in a week.
Michael’s eyes narrowed dangerously. ‘Should I praise you for doing a good job p>

“I always do my best with your tasks. Are you satisfied p>
“How would I know if I’m satisfied without meeting her p>
Michael’s eyes were fixed on her, barely glancing at the resume.
Alice didn’t understand why he was angry again and just smiled indifferently.
“In that case, I’ll notify her to start as an intern, and you can see if she’s suitable p>
“Do you think she’s suitable?” Michael raised an eyebrow.
Alice didn’t hesitate, especially since Clifton wasn’t an outsider and knew everything.
“Yes. She’s young, beautiful, and pure, well-protected by her family, perfectly meeting your requirements p>
She pointed to the name on the resume. “If you like her, the two families can even arrange a marriage, and you won’t have to worry about Mr. Vaughn Johnson having a heart attack p>
Clifton, initially uninterested, now looked at the photo after hearing her. “Briar Savage p>
Alice nodded. “Yes, from the Savage family. She’s also willing to intern at our company.
She maintained a professional smile. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave now p>
Michael nodded, and she left the office, breathing a sigh of relief.
She knew Briar was Michael’s type.
Michael had probably rejected Briar that time because of her. After all, he needed her for both work and life, and having a girlfriend
would be inconvenient.
Thinking of the word “girlfriend,” Alice felt a bit melancholic.
She had told Briar that she was Michael’s bed partner and that he wasn’t a good man.
Briar hadn’t believed her at the time, To Briar, Michael was the best man, handsome and not promiscuous.
Unfortunately, Briar only saw his exterior and didn’t understand his truy nature.
If Briar became Michael’s wife… Alice shuddered at the thought.
Alice shook her head vigorously. She was about to resign and didn’t need to worry about that.
Clifton watched her leave thoughtfully. “Michael, is she back at work p>

“What else? I said she’s mine. Michael’s tone carried a hint of certainty.
He trusted Alice completely and understood her. If she wanted to leave, she would have done so years ago. Now it was just a game
of cat and mouse.
Clifton rolled his eyes secretly. “I saw Uriah looking at her with impure intentions today p>
Today, Alice was dressed in a regular suit and white shirt, but this ordinary outfit was anything but ordinary on her Many men liked
women with this kind of restrained look.
And among all the women with this look, Alice was the most alluring, igniting a spark in those around her.
Alice had a great figure, with large breasts and a slim waist. The suit perfectly outlined her curves.
She could be the girl next door or a seductive boss, the dream lover of almost every man.
If it weren’t for Michael, Alice would have been taken long ago.
Looking at Michael’s gloomy face, Clifton kindly reminded him, “I’ve told you, Alice is very popular. Many people are eyeing her. Be
careful p>
‘Can’t you see she fits Uriah’s taste perfectly p>
Uriah was known for his flirtatious nature. The women he liked were all beauties, but he seemed to prefer the sexy yet innocent
type.
Alice fit this description perfectly, sexy but not trashy, cute with a hint of playfulness.
Clifton was sure Uriah had fallen for Alice.
Michael didn’t say anything, just looked at the resume.
Clifton placed the documents on his desk. “Here’s the material you wanted. I’m leaving p>
I warn you. If you get involved with this Briar Savage, you’ll have to marry her p>
The Savage family had developed rapidly in recent years and was very powerful.
If Michael really dated Briar, the two families would have to arrange a marriage.
After hearing the door close, Michael looked up and saw Alice refusing the returned desserts.
No, thank you, my teeth hurt these days.
“I really don’t want to eat, thank you p>

“No, I’m dieting.
Alice indeed didn’t like sweets, only occasionally eating a piece of candy when she was in a bad mood.
Michael chuckled and then dialed the secretary’s office, ‘Send Alice in p>
Winter looked at Alice helplessly and gave her a look.
Alice understood and entered the CEO’s office again.
“Mr. Johnson p>
Michael pointed to the resume on the desk. “I think I need an explanation p>
He certainly remembered Briar. Many women pursued him, but Briar was an exception.
The Savage family had developed rapidly in recent years, and Briar was a woman he didn’t want to get involved with.
So when Briar pursued him, he had Alice warn her and then took Alice on a business trip for more than half a month.
He didn’t believe Alice didn’t remember who Briar was.
Alice looked at him, puzzled. What was there to explain? She had just chosen someone based on his preferences.
“Alice, is this how you work p>
Michael stood up and threw the resume at Alice. “Don’t you know who she is p>
