"Mr. Larios, are you that nosy? So what if I have feelings for that male colleague? How can you help us?"
Chase responded with a slight grin, "Nothing is impossible. When I finish up my work in the next couple of days, I'll arrange something for you two."
Belinda remained silent.
She had said all that with a hint of annoyance and sarcasm, not expecting him to actually agree.
"Save your effort, Mr. Larios. I can handle my own business. You don't need to worry about me!" Belinda retorted, clearly not pleased.
Chase arched an eyebrow, "So you're planning to pursue him on your own again?"
Belinda frowned and turned to face him seriously, "Mr. Larios, yes, I pursued you once and failed, but that doesn't mean I need to chase after every man I like. I'm not that unattractive!"
Chase chuckled, "Indeed! With your qualities, I'm sure there are men chasing after you."
Belinda didn't want to deal with him anymore. She had once thought of him as gentle, witty, and always calm with a hint of humor. Now, he just seemed sarcastic and annoying.
Ellinor was right. This man was not cut out to be a serious boyfriend. Anyone who ended up with him would get hurt.
Seeing that Belinda was not responding, Chase also got bored and didn't say anything else. He turned to look at Ida, who was also staring at her phone, so he quietly leaned over to take a peek.
Ida was reading a complaint from Byran.
Byran texted. “You shameless woman, you betrayed me; I hate you!”
