ログインNavia didn't move an inch.
Linda frowned. "Why are you still standing there staring at me? Don't tell me you're thinking about hitting me?"Now that she had security guards surrounding the office, Linda's confidence had completely exploded. Certain Navia wouldn't dare make a scene, she strutted around smugly before suddenly snapping her fingers in realization."Oh, I get it."She laughed mockingly."You can't bear to leave that little nameplate behind, can you?

Don't tell me you're thinking about hitting me?"Now that she had security guards surrounding the office, Linda's confidence had completely exploded. Certain Navia wouldn't dare make a scene, she strutted around smugly before suddenly snapping her fingers in realization."Oh, I get it."She laughed mockingly."You can't bear to leave that little nameplate behind, can you? Makes sense. Once you're out of Harrison Group, you're basically nobody. Of course you'd cling desperately to your old title."Linda waved toward the nearby guards."Go get the nameplate I threw away. Since she's so attached to it, package it nicely and let her take it home."One of the guards awkwardly retrieved the engraved desk plate from the trash and handed it toward Navia."Miss Harrison..."Navia grabbed it from his hands.Before Linda could even finish smiling smu
The team leaders all knew exactly who Linda Vale was now.Not only was she Daniel Harrison's daughter, she was also Liam Crawford's fiancée. With that status alone, nobody at Harrison Group dared offend her.The group crowded around her desk immediately, smiling so hard their faces looked stiff."Director Vale!""Good morning, Director Vale..."Linda leaned back comfortably in the executive chair, admiring her freshly painted crimson nails before covering her smile delicately."Oh, stop being so formal," she said sweetly. "You can just call me Linda. We're all family here, aren't we?""Right, exactly!""Linda's absolutely right!"Everyone hurried to agree.Linda casually flipped through the documents spread across the desk. Navia's name was still printed across several of them.She smirked faintly."Navia must've caused you all plenty of trouble before this, huh?"The room immediately fell awkwardly silent.
The Harrison Group headquarters stood in the heart of the tech district, surrounded by towering glass skyscrapers that turned the city into a forest of steel and light.Luxury cars lined the streets outside, so expensive vehicles barely drew a second glance anymore.But the moment a black Rolls-Royce bearing a license plate filled with matching eights pulled up to the curb, countless office workers nearby instinctively slowed down to stare.Even in Kingsley’s tech district—where CEOs and billionaires gathered—that kind of plate wasn’t something money alone could buy. It represented status, power, and connections at the very top.Navia unfastened her seatbelt.“Mr. Crawford, I’ll see you later.”She reached for the door handle before Leonel’s voice stopped her.“Wait.”The moment she turned around, Leonel leaned closer.The sharp scent of cedarwood surrounded her
Leonel looked genuinely helpless for a moment. He hadn’t expected this sweet-looking girl to have such a fiery temper.Lowering his voice, he coaxed gently, “I never said anything about letting you die.”“You may not want me dead, but you clearly want to—” Navia glared at him, only to lose her nerve halfway through the sentence.Leonel’s lips curved slightly. “Want to what?”He was obviously teasing her on purpose again.Seeing that she was seconds away from crying out of frustration, he finally gave up the game and sighed softly.“Your body hasn’t recovered yet,” he explained patiently. “Even the doctor said you need time to rest and heal.”His expression softened.“And besides, until you’re truly comfortable with me, I’m not going to touch you.”“You believe me, don’t you?”There wa
The faint scent of mint lingered on his skin from his shower, clean and cool yet dangerously intoxicating. She reflexively pushed against him, but her fingertips accidentally brushed the exposed skin beneath his open collar.The heat of him startled her so badly she snatched her hand back immediately."W-Why are you here?!" she stammered.Leonel ignored the question entirely.Both of his arms rested against the counter on either side of her, completely blocking off any escape.The difference in height left Navia barely reaching his chin. Completely surrounded by him, she could feel the warmth radiating from his body. When he leaned down slightly, his breath ghosted across her ear and neck, sending shivers racing down her spine.Leonel placed the sugar jar back in front of her."Aren't you adding sugar?" he asked lazily. "I'm still waiting for my coffee."Navia barely dared move. Biting her lip, she obediently picked up the jar
The icy warning in Leonel's eyes cut him off instantly.Jason stiffened and lowered his head like a scolded child, suddenly feeling a chill run down his spine.Seriously. Leonel's possessiveness over Navia was on another level.Earlier, the moment Adrian Hayes showed up, Leonel had immediately thrown him out without hesitation. Now he wouldn't even tolerate a harmless joke about her."My bad." Jason lightly slapped his own mouth.Only then did the coldness around Leonel ease slightly."Say something like that again," Leonel said lazily, "and bruising your mouth will be the least of your problems.""Understood." Jason wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.From now on, he definitely couldn't treat Navia like an ordinary Mrs. Crawford.She was clearly untouchable.Leonel answered the call from the Crawford Estate, and as expected, it was about the birthday gala.In previous years, Leonel had remained overseas and never once atten
