Semua Bab Mafia King's Substitute Wife: Bab 31 - Bab 40

“I want to apply as one of your employees,” I said to Sylus while we were on our way home. We just drove Natalia to her school.Sylus raised an eyebrow, his gaze flicking from the road to me. “What position are you interested in, babe?” he asked, a hint of amusement in his voice.I hesitated, unsure on how to phrase it. “I-I don’t know…m-maybe something in the office? I want to be useful, Sylus.”He chuckled. “You’re already very useful, Charlotte. You are my wife.”“That’s not what I mean, Sylus. I want to do something to contribute to our…to your company.”Sylus’ expression turned thoughtful, his eyes narrowing as he focused on the road. “I’ll talk to HR, and see what we can do. By the way, do you just want to be my secretary?”“Y-Your secretary?”“Yup. In that way, I can keep you close to me all the time even during working hours.”That doesn’t sound good.“Uh..N-No. I don’t think I can do that. M-Maybe I’ll prefer being one of the administrators or something..”“Are you sure abou

It’s been a week now since I’ve started working as Sylus’ executive assistant, and all I did was focus on the charity event project that he assigned to me.“How’s the project?” Sylus suddenly asked me the moment I entered his office.I felt a flutter in my chest as I met Sylus’ gaze. “I-It’s going well, Sir,” I said, trying to sound confident. “The team is working on the final details, and I expect everything to be finalized by Tuesday next week.”Sylus leaned back in his chair, his gaze not leaving mine. “Good. I can see how dedicated you are with it. I can’t wait to see how it turns out.”“T-Thank you, Sir.”“You’ve been too occupied with this project that I can’t even find you in our bed when I wake up in the morning. It makes me want to just cancel this, so I could be alone with you again,” he suddenly said, sulking like a kid.I felt my cheeks flush at his words, my heart racing with a mix of surprise and embarrassment. “I-I’m sorry,” I stammered, not knowing what to say. “I just

“You did a fantastic job, babe.” Sylus said to me while we were on our way home. Natalia was already sleeping at the backseat, tired from playing with the other kids at the gala.I smiled, flattered about his compliment. “T-Thank you…”“You know what? I am surprised that you were able to nail it even though you never handled anything like that before. I mean, were you able to work as someone’s executive assistant back when you were in the island?”I laughed softly, feeling a bit self-conscious. “No, I don’t really have any experience like that back in the island,” I said. “But I did help out with some events and activities in our community, so I guess that gave me some idea of what to do.”Sylus nodded, his eyes on the road. “I knew it,” he said, his voice filled with pride. “You’re a natural, babe. You have a way of making things happen, exactly what we need in our company.”“T-Thanks…”As we approached our house, Sylus spoke up again. “You know, I’ve been thinking….maybe it’s time f

We were both panting when Sylus finally moved away from me. “I told you not to kiss me,” I said, glaring at him. He chuckled, still cupping both of my cheeks. “And why not? You made me play a game and asked me to go to sleep, and now I can’t even kiss you?” “I-It’s not like that. But why do you have to kiss me that long that I can’t even breathe anymore?” Sylus leaned in, his eyes sparkling with mischief. “Because you know you wanted it just as much as I did, Charlotte,” he whispered, his voice husky and seductive. I felt a flutter in my chest, but I tried to keep my cool. “I did not,” I said, trying to sound firm, but my voice came out breathless. Sylus chuckled. “Liar,” he whispered, his lips brushing against mine. I felt a shiver run down my spine, and I knew I was in trouble. I pushed against his chest, trying to create some distance between us. “Stop it, Sylus,” I said, trying to sound stern. But Sylus just smiled, his eyes gleaming with amusement. “Make me,” he w

The room seemed to spin as Sylus' lips claimed mine, his kiss intense and possessive. I tried to push him away, but he held me tight, his grip on my waist like a vice. My heart was racing, and I could feel my face flushing with heat. Just as I thought things were getting out of hand, Sylus suddenly pulled back, his eyes gleaming with amusement. "You're beautiful when you're flustered, love," he whispered, his voice husky. I glared at him, trying to catch my breath. "Mr. Sylus, this not the right time and place these kind of things," I whispered, trying to sound stern. He chuckled, his eyes sparkling with mischief. "I can't help it, babe. Seeing you acting like you don't care about me turns me on." I shook my head as I moved away from him. "Let's stop this now. We have to get back to work. As a CEO, you still have so many things to do. You need to focus on those things whenever we're here." He grinned, then he suddenly raised his right hand and wiped the corners of my mouth u
