My Substitute CEO Bride
Chapter 123
Nash had seen Lori once when he was registering his personal information in the HR department.
âI didnât expect you to personally come here for such a trivial matter, Ms. Lynchâ¦â Nash smiled and stood up to greet her.
After all, he could not just sit back when a department manager was personally delivering his work ID, right?
âAckâ¦!â
As Lori approached Nash, her high heels wavered and she stumbled toward Nash with a surprised cry.
He quickly grabbed her arm with his strong hand and asked in a deep voice, âAre you okay?â
Lori was a head shorter than him, and her blouse was about to pop openâ¦
No⦠it had already burst open.
A button on her white shirt had popped out.
Her milky, tender skin quivered slightly.
Lori furrowed her brows, giving Nash a pitiful look as she bit her red lip and said, âMr. Calcraft⦠I⦠seem to have twisted my ankleâ¦â
Nash let go of her arm and pointed to the first aid kit hanging on the wall. âThereâs some medicine for that in the first aid kit⦠Put some on and massage it. Youâll be fine!â
When Lori had fallen toward him, the muscles in one of her legs were noticeably tense.
Even if he had not caught her, she could have steadied herself.
It was clear that she had intentionally fallen toward him.
Either she was sent by Hera to test him, or she had an interest in him.
After all, there were not many young and handsome men in the Baroque branch office.
With watery eyes, Lori looked at the man resentfully and said, âMr. Calcraft⦠can you help me get there?â
Nash took the work ID from Loriâs hand and then turned to walk toward his office chair.
Lori was left standing there, dumbfounded.
She had always been confident about her appearance.
She thought she could get her hands on this new guy.
However, this guy was as clueless as a fool.
Just then, Hera walked into the office. âNashâ¦â
Seeing Lori in Nashâs office, Hera was surprised, âMs. Lynch⦠what are you doing here?â
Seeing Hera, Lori quickly said, âI came to deliver Mr. Calcraftâs work ID!â
Hera nodded, then walked up to Nash with a smile. âWhy didnât you tell me you were coming?â
âYou were in a meeting. I didnât want to disturb you.â
âYou were supposed to rest at home today. Why did you come to work?â Hera was a little upset.
âI had nothing to do, so I thought Iâd help you out,â Nash said with a light smile.
Meanwhile, Lori looked at them in surprise.
Her toes in her high heels were awkwardly curled.
No wonder Nash got the job of security manager without any work experience. He was Ms. Lewisâ boyfriend.
âOh my god! I was trying to seduce the CEOâs man?â
Lori blushed and stammered, âMr. Calcraft, Ms. Lewis, I⦠I should get going!â
Hera nodded. âGo ahead. By the way, Iâve approved the recruitment plan you submitted yesterday. The HR department needs to implement it as soon as possible!â
âYes, Ms. Lewis!â
Lori answered, then practically ran out of the office.
It was then that Hera turned back to Nash. She squinted her eyes and asked, âDid Ms. Lynch come over just to deliver your work ID?â
âWhy else?â
âYou need to be wary of this woman. Sheâs only been in the company for three years, but sheâs already been in three relationships!â Hera wrinkled her nose, looking a bit worried. Lori had a curvaceous figure and a lot of experience. She was worried Nash could not resist her.
âWhat about you? How many relationships have you been in?â Nash asked, crossing his legs.
