lody Thorne leaned back slightly, "I’ve suddenly lost my desire for plain water; I want coffee. Would you make a cup of coffee?"
Sheryl Lancaster glanced once more in Jared Quinn’s direction, but Jared was absorbed in his docunts, oblivious to her presence.
Suppressing her anger, Sheryl reluctantly went to make a cup of coffee and slamd it down on the table so hard that so spilled out.
lody Thorne looked at her coldly and comnted, "Jared Quinn, is there sothing wrong with your eyes? How can you use such a lousy secretary? Are you hiding sothing unsavory between you and her? Is it ti for an inventory?"
Sheryl Lancaster’s face flushed imdiately.
The docunts that Jared Quinn was perusing snapped shut, his large hand grasping lody Thorne’s wrist as his voice deepened, "Is it her that’s overdue for inventory or is it you?"
Sheryl heard this and her mood lifted slightly, feeling sowhat pleased, thinking Jared was siding with her.
"Hmm?" Jared’s large hand had already pulled lody into his embrace.
lody pinched his waist, a warning not to misbehave or she’d refuse to serve him.
Jared lowered his head and kissed her mouth, kissing her with abandon, the kind of devouring kiss that nearly swallowed her whole.
Even watching was enough to make one blush and their heart race; that kind of male allure was irresistible.
Sheryl couldn’t help but blush, even though the kiss wasn’t hers, such a man was soone she very much desired.
It made her wonder how wonderful it would be if she were the one in his arms right now.
Five full minutes passed before Jared released her, while Sheryl stood there watching them kiss for five minutes.
The room was flooded with an ambiguous atmosphere, and she felt like a third wheel, completely ignored by everyone.
Sheryl clenched her hand and turned to leave the office!
No, she couldn’t leave, she was gambling, and had only this one chance.
Sheryl stayed strong until the end of the workday.
"Secretary Lancaster," Jared said as he left the office, glancing at her again, repeating his words from last night, "Go ho and get so rest."
"Mr. Quinn..." Sheryl looked at him walking away, puzzled.
Does she understand a man’s mind? Jared Quinn intends to have lody Thorne, while letting her stay by his side as a mistress?
Sheryl’s chest rose and fell with her indignation, her pride telling her no, absolutely not.
But what man has only one woman by his side?
lody Thorne was following behind Jared Quinn, gradually slowing down, her steps beca further and further from Jared’s.
When Jared turned around, there was a distance between them, as if they could never walk together.
Especially lody Thorne, too hurt from her past life, she couldn’t help but think about how Jared had treated other won and recalled how he treated her in her past life, although that was only a past life...
"lody Thorne," Jared stood still, his handso face exuding an indiscernible emotion, "Co here."
lody took another step back and curled her lips in mockery, "I didn’t expect you to be so skilled at wooing."
He hadn’t done anything, just said a word to Sheryl, and she was already almost entranced beyond saving.
As lody moved, Jared’s eyes darkened, his tall figure walked over to lody, stopped in front of her, and swept her in his arms, "You’re the only one I want to woo."
