“Front Desk, happy to serve,” a gentle voice warmed up the conversation.　　“Lilian, this is Hawkins from the CEO’s office, listen carefully to what I’m about to say,” he went straight to the point.　　“A new employee Chloe Myers will have her first day, I want you to send her to the golden elevator, is that clear?” he added.　　Shocked, the woman responded, “But Sir Hawkins, isn’t that elevator only for–”　　“–Just do as you are told. Make sure she rides it, she has red hair, and blue eyes, is very gorgeous, and has a perfect physique. No mistakes, the order came directly from Mr. Schneider.”　　After the conversation he had with the front desk, he turned his way back to Mr. Schneider, “Sir, once she said yes to the negotiation, how would you leak it to the press?”　　Tyler for a moment thought hard, he wanted it to be simple but hurtful to Isabella who rejected him, “Let’s go viral and in the newspaper as if it was a scoop. Reveal my name but hide hers.”　　Hawkins’ eyes mesmerized, “I’ll

　　“Let’s say, get hired or get fired? Your choice!” threatened him.　　Chloe didn’t answer right away. Not because she was afraid of losing her job, but because she was battling her thoughts about what she did wrong to deserve this.　　Since a calm conversation between them wasn’t plausible. Hawkins had to come in between.　　“Mrs. Schneider, would you like some tea?”　　“Please, don’t call me that. Just Chloe. And yes, I need something soothing and relaxing before I crack your boss’s head,” she whispered and Hawkins let out a soft chuckle.　　Tyler heard what she said but he didn’t mind it. He expected her to be this way, with his first encounter, he knew she would be hard to control. And getting her to agree to his plan would yet be another great challenge.　　But he knew he had the upper hand on this, since he is her boss, and he has nothing to lose, unlike her.　　When Hawkins was preparing the tea, none of them talked to each other. There was utter silence until he came back. Hawkins ser

　　Hearing the words ‘maybe’ and ‘no’ made her raise her eyebrows. Those two points he just clearly refused were the fundamental points among all the things she just relayed.　　“And would you mind explaining to me those ‘maybe’ and ‘no’, huh?” she rested her back and crossed her legs, exposing its flawlessness.　　A twitch came from Tyler’s lips. Hawkins saw that as well, and he could tell in an instant that his boss was indeed affected by this difficult woman.　　“You don’t even know what I’ll get from this marriage, how come you came up with that 20%, what if it is just a dud, huh?” Tyler tried to find her true intention.　　“I thought you were clever, husband? The moment you said in the contract how much you were willing to compensate me, to the point of even making me a shareholder or giving me my brand, that means it would be way bigger than that,” an evil grin contradicting her innocent face appeared.　　At that point, Tyler admitted to himself how he adored her sexy brain, and he wou

　　It was a busy day at her department but Chloe was caught daydreaming by her boss about what happened this morning in her new home–her husband’s penthouse.　　“Hey, Ms. Myers, are you just going to stare at those blank papers? Didn’t I tell you to revise the layout of the ads and present it to me before noon, huh?” her head department yelled at her.　　She apologized for being absent-minded. When her boss turned around, she slapped her cheeks multiple times and shook his head trying to erase the image of her husband’s naked upper body this morning.　　She could once again feel her lower body part tighten as the temperature rose unexpectedly to her blushing cheeks.　　EARLIER THIS MORNING　　Chloe woke up thanks to her alarm, still dizzy from lack of sleep. She only slept for less than three hours due to unpacking.　　She opened her eyes and stared at the ceiling for a while. The scenery was quite different from her usual mornings. The color of the ceiling, the chandelier, and even the smell

　　A car salesman was mesmerized by this gorgeous figure that walked into their shop. Known as the playboy and the most good-looking among them, his colleagues had a bet on him.　　He approached her with his usual sweet charisma. Hawkins was watching his every move as the man approached his boss’s wife.　　The innocent Chloe instantly fell into Jeric’s charismatic trap, Hawkins got to do something before Tyler made a scene.　　But it was already too late.　　The look in Tyler’s eyes was filled with rage. Hawkins did everything to pacify his anger but failed, “Sir, I’ll manage this, please don’t–”　　Yet Tyler didn’t listen. He charged at them when he became touchy with his wife.　　“Son of a bitch!” he cussed inwardly while clenching his fists. A series of giggles wouldn’t matter, but what pissed him off was someone getting his hands on someone who is his.　　What made it worse was his wife wasn’t even aware of the man’s intention. The last straw of his patience was when the man asked for his
