One Night with the Cold CEO 150
Chloe Bishop frowned with worry.Although Sara’s congenital heart condition was well-managed and completely fine as long as she took her medication on schedule, she still worried that the intense, startling shocks of a haunted house might trigger her heart.“Mommy, please, please! Just this once!”Sara’s relentless coaxing instantly melted her resolve. Despite her lingering anxiety, Chloe Bishop gave a hesitant nod.“Alright, just this once.”“Yay! Mommy, I’m going in!”The Haunted House.As the group finally reached the entrance, Chloe Bishop’s feet came to an absolute, dead halt.She was an absolute coward when it came to anything remotely terrifying. Back home, Adrian was always the one who had to watch horror movies with Sara so she wouldn't have to. The thought of stepping into a dark maze full of ghosts in broad daylight made her want to turn around and run.“Mommy, let’s go in!”“Y-You guys go ahead with Adrian and Grayson Uncle first,” Chloe Bishop urged nervously, 她的 hidden s

Under Sara’s eager coaxing, Chloe Bishop reluctantly pinched off a piece of the pink cotton candy and brought it to Xavier Grayson’s lips, her cheeks burning with a blush.The man parted his lips and took a bite. The spun sugar melted instantly on his tongue, spreading a rich, velvety sweetness that seeped straight into his usually frozen heart.“Grayson Uncle, is the cotton candy sweet?” Little Sara asked, gleefully watching the spectacle.“Very sweet,” Xavier Grayson murmured, a subtle, breathtaking smile curving his lips.Anything hand-fed by her was bound to be extraordinarily sweet.Hearing his answer, a soft, rosy flush bloomed across Chloe Bishop’s fair cheeks. Embarrassed, she ducked her head, tearing off a piece of the cotton candy for herself. As she tasted the light sugar, the sweetness leaked into the depths of her own heart as well.“Mommy, Grayson Uncle wants more!” Sara, reading Xavier Grayson’s mind like an open book, piped up again.Shy and completely unable to look h

Under the bright, sunny sky.Sara bounced along with sparkling, wide eyes, practically vibrating with excitement at the sight of all the rides and games. Twirling in her little pink dress, she looked around in absolute awe.“Hold onto Grayson Uncle’s hand tightly and don’t wander off,” Chloe Bishop warned gently, her protective motherly instincts kicking in.“With Grayson Uncle here, I won't wander off!” The little girl looked back with a mischievous grin before continuing her joyful bounce forward.This was the very first time in Xavier Grayson’s life that he had set foot in an amusement park, let alone to chaperoned two little ones. Compared to Chloe Bishop, he was completely out of his element.Today, he had intentionally opted for a casual tailored jacket and trousers. Though simple, the outfit looked extraordinarily luxurious on him, accentuating his towering, model-like frame. As they strolled through the crowd, he effortlessly turned head after head.“Mr. Grayson, I’m really so

“Hello, I’m Chloe Bishop. Um... were you here to give Mr. Grayson a physical checkup today?” she asked, genuine concern lacing her voice.Chris Evans nodded pleasantly. “Yes, just a routine checkup.”Every six months, he made a point to conduct a thorough examination for Xavier Grayson.“Then... how is Mr. Grayson’s health doing overall?” Chloe Bishop pressed, unable to suppress her curiosity—especially since he had taken an injury for her not too long ago.Chris Evans hesitated for a brief second, but considering the rumor was practically common knowledge in high society anyway, he didn't see the harm in offering a vague reassurance.“To be completely honest with you, Miss Bishop, the external rumors aren't unfounded. It is highly likely Mr. Grayson will never be able to father children.”So it really is true.Hearing it confirmed by his personal physician didn't surprise Chloe Bishop. Instead, a wave of profound, unexpected pity washed over her.A man of his unmatched caliber, posse

Footsteps echoed softly along the hallway.Realizing someone was about to pass by, Chloe Bishop quickly took a step back, widening the distance between herself and Xavier Grayson.“Mr. Grayson, I should get back to work.”Xavier Grayson watched her scurry away like a frightened rabbit, a complex mix of amusement and lingering warmth tightening in his chest.The next day.Decked out in full glam, Ava Adam arrived at the Grayson Tower once more, only to be stopped cold in the lobby.“What do you mean, Mr. Grayson refuses to see me? Impossible! He would never treat me like this!”“I’m sorry, Miss Adam, but it’s true. Mr. Grayson is currently in a meeting and unable to take visitors,” the female receptionist replied firmly, blocking her path.Ava Adam’s eyes flashed with furious disbelief. “I don't believe you! If he’s in a meeting, I can wait. Who do you think you are to keep me out? Are you just jealous, so you’re deliberately trying to stop me from seeing him?”“Miss Adam, these are st

“Well, well, Secretary Chloe, what a coincidence.”Ava Adam sat right down opposite her, flashing a saccharine, two-faced smile that screamed of territorial dominance.The two of them had plenty of bad blood between them. Ava Adam had deliberately made things difficult for her during the recent design department debacle, and dragging Xavier Grayson right into the cafeteria today was undeniably intentional.Chloe Bishop kept her head down, silently stabbing at her food.Across the table, the man’s dark gaze remained locked firmly on her, while she stubbornly refused to look up.“Xavier, your company’s staff are terribly rude,” Ava Adam whined, turning to play the victim. “They don't even greet their boss when he walks by, and they completely ignore me!”“My apologies, I didn't hear you,” Chloe Bishop said, putting her fork down to avoid giving them any more ammunition.“Didn't hear me? Sounds to me like you did it on purpose!”“I didn't.”Finishing her flat defense, Chloe Bishop droppe
