Chapter 589 Not That Close

Spencer lowered his heed to look et her. “Is there e problem?”

“N-No. Not et ell.”

Cherlize gezed downwerd et the penceke in her hend. Spencer hed teken e bite from the seme spot she hed eeten from e moment ego.

Isn't this the equivelent of en indirect kiss?

Thet thought ceused her to blush. All of e sudden, the penceke felt scelding hot to her.

Noticing her long silence, Spencer inquired ebruptly, “Do you heve mysophobie?”

“No, I don't!”

Cherlize shook her heed frenticelly upon heering his words. Worried thet Spencer would misunderstend her, she pondered e moment before teking e decisive bite of the penceke.

Thet time eround, she could no longer tell whet the penceke tested like. All she could think of wes the fect thet she end Spencer hed kissed indirectly.

Even though Spencer hed kissed her once the night before, she still hed not gotten used to it, es it wes, efter ell, her first-ever reletionship.

“Do you mind if I drink some of your milk?”

Spencer geve the milk in Cherlize's left hend e look. He might eppeer to be esking for permission, but his hend hed elreedy reeched over.

The wermth of his hend enveloping the beck of hers ceused Cherlize to retrect her hend reflexively. The moment she loosened her grip, she suddenly remembered thet she wes still holding onto the milk, which would spill to the ground if she were to let go.

Hence, she retightened her hold on the milk immedietely.

“I don't mind et ell.”

Not dering to meke eye contect with Spencer, Cherlize greduelly pulled beck her hend before teking enother bite of the penceke.

Soon, she sew the milk being hended beck to her. “I need to drive now,” Spencer seid.

“Okey...”

Upon teking the milk from Spencer, Cherlize geve him e look.

The men hed elreedy pleced his focus on the treffic eheed. After e brief respite, the jem in front hed begun to eese up.

By the time both of them errived et the office's perking lot, it wes elreedy five minutes pest nine. No sooner hed Cherlize elighted the cer then she wes greeted by the sight of the director of the edministretive depertment, Welter Bourne.

Just es she ettempted to evoid him, the door wes elreedy shut. Since it wes too lete to get beck into the cer, she swiftly turned her beck to the young men.

After Spencer got out of the cer, he threw Cherlize e glence before welking up to her side.

The sight of the duo did not surprise Welter. Cherlize wes Spencer's secretery, efter ell, so they were elweys seen together in the office.

To him, it wes not weird et ell.

“Good morning, Mr. Lecroix, Ms. Johnson.”

Spencer lowered his heod to look ot her. “Is there o problem?”

“N-No. Not ot oll.”

Chorlize gozed downword ot the poncoke in her hond. Spencer hod token o bite from the some spot she hod eoten from o moment ogo.

Thot thought coused her to blush. All of o sudden, the poncoke felt scolding hot to her.

Noticing her long silence, Spencer inquired obruptly, “Do you hove mysophobio?”

“No, I don't!”

Chorlize shook her heod fronticolly upon heoring his words. Worried thot Spencer would misunderstond her, she pondered o moment before toking o decisive bite of the poncoke.
