âNo, itâs not safe here.
Someone might hear us!â Nathan pleaded, trying to keep his voice hushed.
She raised her eyebrows mischievously and let out a soft chuckle.
âIâm the president of the Simmons Group.
Who would dare to peep or eavesdrop on us in my office?â
While she had a point, Nathan couldnât help but notice that the door was still unlocked.
Attempting to regain control of the situation, he regulated his breathing and spoke in a serious tone.
âLucinda, Iâm analyzing important files for you.
Itâs a matter of great significance.
â
Unwilling to give up, Lucinda pouted and used her fingers to playfully twirl his tie.
She leaned in, her lips teasingly close to his ear.
âBut what weâre doing is also very important, Nate.
Donât you want me?â she whispered seductively.
Nathanâs face flushed red, and he felt the heat rise to his ears.
He was rarely caught off guard like this.
âYes, of course, but not here.
â
Lucinda snorted and rolled her eyes playfully.
âFine then.
But Iâm telling you this⦠Iâll be exhausted after a dayâs work.
When we get home, even if you cry and beg me, I wonât let you touch me!â
The idea of not being able to touch her later was too much for him to bear.
After hearing her declaration, he found himself considering the possibility of giving in to her desires in the office at that very moment.
After hesitating for a while, he compromised, unable to resist her allure.
âAlright, letâs continue,â he said, closing his eyes and allowing himself to relax, as if surrendering to her whims.
Lucinda couldnât help but snort coldly.
Instead of getting closer to Nathan, she stood up and moved away from him, her expression sullen as she snapped, âSorry, Iâm not in the mood right now.
Since you enjoy working so much, you can continue writing notes for me.
â
She pointed at the stack of documents Nathan had placed on the coffee table and added, âHelp me finish all the notes before I get off work today.
If you canât finish, itâs ten slaps on your palm for each unfinished page.
â
Nathanâs eyes widened in shock as he looked at the towering pile of documents on the table, almost as tall as his arm.
There was no way he could finish that mountain of work before the day was over!
Why did he refuse her when she finally took the initiative and made such an offer to make out with him?
Doing it in the office wasnât a big deal! Even if someone heard them, it wouldnât be him whoâd be embarrassed.
Regret washed over him as he grabbed Lucindaâs arm, pleading, âBaby, please donâtâ¦â
âGo back to work!â
