Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Once the board meeting ended, the announcement about Mandy's and Julien's appointment was released to all Lovelace Group employees.

Julien exited the meeting room. The moment he entered the chairman's office, he plunged into Jonah's arms. He nuzzled his sweaty face against Jonah's shoulder.

He could finally feel at ease, knowing that he was finally back in his lover's presence. He also let go of the confident persona he was putting up and melted into Jonah's embrace.

When Lovelace Group's projects start picking up, we will ensure you're paid your share of the dividend." "You're too kind, Mandy. My money is also the Taylor family's money. You are also part of the Taylor family. I am just simply helping a family member." Jonah shook his head. "If you really want to give back, you can just give it to Julien. It's the sthing."
