Camila told him as she held her baby boy, “Look, my son doesn't Like you!"

Aldrin smiled and argued, "I clean my teeth daily. My oral hygiene is excellent."

Camila hid her lack of appetite over dinner in front of Rowena by pretending to eat voraciously.

"Mila, have you been feeling really exhausted Lately? I don't Like the way you look at all.“ Rowena served her daughter a bowl of soup.

Aldrin echoed, "Yes, Camila. Is work killing you?" Camila hurriedly confirmed, "Yes, I have had a lot on my plate recently."

“You need to take care of yourself. You can have a daughter for Isaac when Joe grows up. You'll then be blessed with a son and a daughter."

Camila ducked her head and said, "Mom, we're having dinner for Christ's sake!"

Furthermore, Aldrin was there, thus this topic was inappropriate for discussion.

Rowena chuckled and added, "I won't say that again."

Joe went to bed early after dinner. Rowena requested that they spend the night, but Camila said Joe would need to sleep in his own bed in order to rest well.

Rowena couldn't keep them any longer.

Joe was snoozing in her arms as they sat in the car, and she was holding her phone.

The bright neon lights flashed by her face as she stared out the car window. Her eyelashes fluttered.

She thought long and hard before finally sending a message to Isaac. "I miss you."

Her gaze remained fixated on the phone even after she was done sending the text.

She eagerly anticipated his response.

Seconds turned to minutes and minutes were slowly becoming an hour and she got nothing from his end even when she had returned home.

In an attempt to reassure herself, Camila started making up excuses for his silence. She told herself that he was probably preoccupied by an important assignment.

That provided her with some sort of relief As a matter of fact, she was right. Isaac was preoccupied at that time.

A meeting room large enough to accommodate about a hundred people was occupied by dozens of senior executives.

A significant number of individuals present were foreigners and they were all sitting upright.

Despite Mercury Corp being a relatively new establishment, it had already acquired a considerable amount of businesses that had been transferred from the former Paramount Corporation. Furthermore, under Isaac's management, his sharp business acumen, precise investments, and distinctive judgement had propelled it to become a well-established investment company in a relatively short period.

It had already gained significant recognition within the industry. Isaac had made an investment in a domestic entertainment company, and within the past two years, he had helped to nurture hundreds of internet celebrities, many of whom had millions of online fans. Among them, three individuals had amassed more than fifty million fans.

Although that entertainment company was widely renowned within the country, the identity of the owner remained a mystery to the public

Isaac deemed the company not worth his time, as his involvement was only required for major decisions or directional judgments, while the company's executives handled most of the other matters.
