The moment the silver doors slid open, pure chaos met them. Senior executives were scurrying like panicked ants, clutching blue leather folders, while VP Miller looked like he was three seconds away from a massive cardiac event.

"They're inside!" Miller hissed, wiping a sheet of cold sweat from his forehead. "Mr. Kyoto looks like he wants to dissolve our board, and Mrs. Kyoto hasn't smiled once! The catering hasn't—"

"Breathe, Miller," Jane commanded smoothly, stepping

  • THE CEO'S ACCIDENTAL CONFESSION: The Lingerie Slip   Chapter 120

    Her hand disappeared beneath the tablecloth. Mike felt it first against his knee, tentative, then bolder, sliding up his thigh with the confidence of a woman who knew exactly what she would find. Her palm pressed against the hard line of him through his trousers, and his own breath hitched, the first crack in his composure."Victoria—""Shh." She squeezed, her fingers measuring him through the wool, learning his shape. "The waiter was coming back."And he was, threading between tables with the wine list, asking about pairings, about preferences, about whether they had decided on appetizers. Mike managed to discuss the merits of burrata versus carpaccio while Victoria's hand worked him slowly, her thumb tracing the ridge beneath his zipper with maddening patience. He felt himself leak against his underwear, the damp spot spreading, and her fingers found it, pressed there, spreading the wetness through the fabric with something like satisfaction.When the waiter finally retreated, Mik

    A heavy, electric silence descended on their private alcove. Victoria didn't break eye contact for a single second, her chin tilted up in pure, arrogant challenge as her heel slowly, deliberately glided up to his knee under the white tablecloth.Mike swallowed hard, his jaw clenching tightly as his amber eyes darkened into a shade of pure, molten gold. The smug, victorious smirk on his face vanished, replaced by a raw, possessive heat that made Victoria's pulse hammer wildly against her ribs.Slowly, carefully, Mike set his glass down on the table.Without a word, his broad hand reached down beneath the tablecloth, his fingers catching her slender ankle with a hot, unyielding grip, halting her movement completely."You're playing with fire, Victoria," Mike rasped, his baritone voice dropping into a low, gravelly hum that vibrated straight down her spine. "We're in a public restaurant. And if you keep looking at me like that, I'm going to throw my credit card at the waiter, toss you ov

    A few hours later…Victoria stood in front of her full-length mirror, adjusting the delicate strap of her pastel baby blue dress, a dangerous, triumphant smirk on her lips.She was a woman on a mission. There was zero chance she was allowing Mike Cavill to keep a video of her snoring like a dockworker, let alone let it anywhere near her sister or—God forbid—her mother, Eleanor. She would have the video projected at William’s wedding reception just to humiliate her into settling down.So, Victoria had strategically selected her weapon of choice: an ethereal, breathtaking baby blue dress that was deceptively innocent from the front, but featured a plunging backless cut and a dangerously high thigh slit that exposed a lethal stretch of bare leg with every step.If I can’t out-talk him, she thought viciously, checking her lip gloss, I will distract him until his brain short-circuits and snatch his phone.An hour later, the sharp double-honk of a luxury town car signaled his arrival downst

    "Unblock me then!" his voice echoed back through the narrowing gap, followed by a quick, wicked wink before the door finally swung completely closed.Victoria stood frozen in the middle of her office, her chest heaving, her knuckles white around the handle of her coffee mug. She wanted to hurl it against the solid oak door. She wanted to shatter it into a thousand pieces to match the absolute, chaotic mess he had just made of her carefully curated life.Instead, after a long, agonizing ten seconds of heavy breathing, she slowly set the mug down on her desk with a sharp clack."Damn it," she gasped aloud, dropping her head into her hands. "That man is going to be the absolute death of me."She sank into her leather executive chair, her knees still trembling faintly from the sheer intensity of his hold. Her office was quiet again, the multi-million-pound contract sitting neatly signed on her glass table, but the atmosphere felt charged, thick with the scent of his woodsy cologne and the

    He looked down at Victoria, his amber eyes dancing with a wicked, teasing light, and pressed a soft, lingering kiss right to her temple.Victoria’s breath hitched. Fiancée?! Her eyes widened to the size of saucers, sending him a silent, death-promising glare that could have melted steel. You insufferable, lying bastard!"I am not your—" Victoria started, her voice tight and warning."Oh, young love!" the older woman clapped her hands together in sheer delight, her previous shock vanishing instantly, replaced by a misty, nostalgic smile. She looked at her husband, chuckling fondly. "It is quite alright, Mr. Cavill! My husband used to do the exact same foolish, passionate things when we were courting in Shanghai fifty years ago."The elderly gentleman chuckled, nodding in warm agreement as he picked his fountain pen back up. "A man who lets business get in the way of his lady is no man at all. We completely understand." He looked at Mike with a twinkle of genuine happiness. "So, when is

    Victoria felt a treacherous blush creeping up her neck again. She offered Arthur a tight, polite smile, took the water, and stepped into the elevator.Ten minutes later, as her taxi navigated through the wet, bustling streets of morning London, Victoria leaned her head against the cool glass window. She pulled out her phone, stared down at the blocked contact list, and felt her thumb hover over Mike's name.A quiet, breathless, helplessly smitten smile finally broke through her icy demeanor."Absolute jerk," she whispered to the foggy window, and unblocked him.Arriving at her London penthouse, Victoria kicked off her heels and immediately pulled out her phone. With a petty, vindicated smirk, she hit Block on Mike’s contact once again. Because why on earth should he get the satisfaction of a win before noon? She was still furious, furious that he had seen her completely unraveled, furious that he had undressed her... or, God forbid, that he was telling the absolute truth and she had b
