Ivy looked at Lucas's face and blinked. "Mr. Woods, I was just curious so I cto take a look." "Do you remember what you said earlier?" he asked.

Lucas was momentarily speechless, and Caspian could not help but chuckle. "Ivy, you're not afraid of Mr. Woods at all, huh?" "Is he scary? I don't think so. As an employee of thispany, I want to take an interest in its future development!" Ivy said confidently.
Lucas shifted his gaze back to the form in front of him. Soon, his brow furrowed as the questions on the form were rather absurd. For instance, the first question on the form was: 'Is your health in good condition? Are your parents healthy? Any hereditary diseases?' This was followed by the second question: 'How many romantic relationships have you had? What's your marital status? Do you have a girlfriend? Are you married? Do you have children?' The third question on the form was: 'What are your views on marriage? How do you view your career?' Lucas's hand trembled slightly as he held the form, taken aback by the intrusive questions.
Sitting beside Lucas, Caspian also read the outrageous questions.

After reading it, he wiped his eyes and asked Ms. Feake, "Ms. Feake, are you sure this is the form you meant to give our Mr. Woods? Is he supposed to fill this one?" Ms. Feake smiled. "There's only one form in my bag so I couldn't have given him the wrong one. Is there a problem with the questions on the form?" Caspian burst into laughter. "Why do I feel like this is a pre-marriage survey? We're here for a business partnership, right? Lucas's personal life doesn't seem relevant tour cooperation, does it?" Ms. Feake continued to smile. "Why wouldn't it be relevant? If Mr. Woods is in good health, our partnership will be even more secure. As for the questions about his romantic lif they are even more important. A stable relationship without the potential for scandal will reduce many potential risks for thepany's operations." Caspian was convinced and nodded in agreement so he handed the form back to Lucas. "Lucas, go ahead and fill it out. These questions are actually quite straightforward." "This intrudes upon my privacy!" Lucas protested.
Ms. Feake chimed in, "Mr. Woods, you can trust that this form will remain confidential. We won't disclose it to the public or discuss your personal matters outside. We hope you can trust us, just as we trust you with our investment while steering clear from interfering with your management or decísions." Caspian felt that Ms. Feake was sincere in her request and elbowed Lucas. "Lucas, just fill it in! It's not like you have any secrets that you don't want others to know about." "Why do I have to fill in information about my parents' health? What does that have to do with mypany?" Lucas questioned. Ms. Feake smiled and was about to answer when Ivy snatched the form out of Lucas's hand.
She quickly scanned the question and declared, "Mr. Woods, these questions are an invasion of your privacy. You shouldn't have to fill it in if you don't want to!" Caspian and Lucas both turned to look at her, while Ms. Feake asked Lucas gently, "May I know what position this young lady holds here?"
