Chapter 311: Offending the Lady Boss.
Arwen halted as she slowly turned to look back at the person who had just prohibited her.
Her gaze and demeanour remained gentle as her eyes studied the woman standing in front of her. “You are?” she asked and the woman scoffed at her question. “Don’t pretend to be so noble when you are clearly not.” Arwen raised her brows at her words.
“I am not?” she repeated before asking again, “How do you know that?” “I am the receptionist here,” the woman said proudly before adding, “Of course, I can tell that you are not because I have seen a lot of women like you coming here to covet the chance to meet our CEO.” Arwen paused at her words.
A hint of surprise flashed on her face before she asked, “Women often come to meet your CEO like that?” The receptionist felt a bit odd at her question.
Although she was there asking the woman, it felt like she was being questioned instead.
Hardening her features, she snapped, “Don’t act smart out here and question me as if you are the Lady Boss here.
Just leave before I ask the security to throw you out.” Arwen’s lips curled in a slow and beautiful smile.
“I am not leaving,” she said, adding, “I am here to meet my husband and your CEO so I am not leaving until I meet him.” “Your husband?” That took the receptionist off-guard, and Arwen nodded to her. “Yes,” she said.
“Hence, I not acting smart out here, instead I am really the Lady Boss here.
If you don’t believe you can always confirm.” Arwen didn’t mind the receptionist’s brazenness; she understood her concern. But the receptionist didn’t take her seriously.
Letting out a mock laughter, she looked at Arwen head to toe.
“Your husband?” she scoffed again.
“Do you think I will believe that?” Arwen checked the time on her watch.
She was here to make sure Aiden ate something, she could stay here and let him starve himself.
Feeling impatient, she shook her head.
“You are not compelled to believe me and that’s why I asked you to confirm it.” She then glanced up at her and said, “If you are confirming it, can you do it fast?
I am here for a purpose; I don’t want to get delayed for long.” “Purpose of seducing our CEO,” the receptionist remarked scornfully.
“What made you think that I would even bother to confirm it.” Arwen thought she could be patient enough, but ultimately, she realized that she couldn’t.
Pinching the space between her brows, she shook her head at her attitude before fidgeting her phone out of her bad.
“It’s fine I will help you out there,” she said and then effortlessly dialled the number on her phone. Seeing her making the call with such confidence, the receptionist’s attitude wavered.
“Who are you calling?” she asked. “Someone that can help you confirm my identity,” Arwen didn’t mind giving her some heads-up. The receptionist lunged forward to snatch away her phone, but as if already seeing through her thoughts, Arwen stepped aside, dodging her attempt. “Don’t try that.
It will only make you miserable,” she said, and right at that time, the call was picked up on the other end and she spoke through the line while keeping her eyes on the receptionist.
“Mr.
Ethan,” she said, adding, “Can you please come down for a moment and help me confirm my identity here?” “Madam,” Emyr’s voice sounded a bit nervous as asked, “Where are you?” “I will wait for you in the company’s lounge area.” With that, Arwen didn’t say anymore.
She hung up the call and spoke to the receptionist, “It’s just a matter of a minute or two.
You can either wait here, or we can go get to sit somewhere.” “You…” “If I had been you, I would have preferred to stay cautious for a few minutes instead of regretting it later,” Arwen said as she darted her gaze to look around.
Unlike the last time, this area wasn’t looking very busy.
Could it be that the last time she came here, everyone was set up around this place purposely? That doesn’t seem impossible. “You are being too confident, aren’t you?” the receptionist’s voice came rageful.

“I am not going to let you wait for even another second and risk my job.” Saying that, she stormed her way to the desk and picked the receiver to make a call. Arwen stayed calm, but her gaze followed the woman and noted all her actions.
And soon she saw two burly men appear on her side.
She said something to them before gesturing them to look at her. And soon in the next second, they started walking her way. “Throw her out now,” the receptionist said in a tone full of command as they walked closer to Arwen. Arwen still remained untroubled.
Seeing her unthreatened like that, the receptionist became more furious.
“Get her out now,” she ordered once again and at her words, the two men were about to grab Arwen when the elevator behind her opened. Emyr’s gaze immediately noted the intention of the two guards and displeasure marred his expression.
Seeing the obvious on his face, the two guards stepped back, not daring to act anymore. “What are you doing?” the receptionist asked who hadn’t noticed Emy.
Her brows wrinkled in a frown.
“I asked you to throw her out now.” “Who dares?” Emry stepped forward, making the woman go stiff at his question. Her face paled as he slowly turned to look his way.
“M-Mr.
Ethan, I -” she couldn’t find her words. Arwen noticed the instant change in demeanor and shook her head internally.
Not giving a hard time to the woman, she gently spoke, “Mr.
Ethan!” And at her voice, Emyr immediately turned to look at the lady, before bowing his head down in respect.
“Madam, sorry for letting you experience this.
It was a fault on my end.” His words dawned upon the receptionist and she was stunned.
She glanced at Arwen incredulously and her face grew white in horror.
Just the thought of offending the Lady Boss made her knees go weak.
She wanted to apologize but at the same time, she wanted herself to go invisible. Arwen didn’t miss the horror on the woman’s face.
She gave her a fleeting glance and said, “Can you take me to Aiden first?”
