Chapter 35
“Who cares? He’s my archenemy for life. Especially after he dared to accept Monica’s painting. That man is nothing but a devious snake, a greedy wolf in sheep’s clothing, pretending to be a gentleman but with the

Whitney approached the bookshelf with a scowl, slapping the picture of the man back and forth with disdain.
Tiana, quivering nervously, whispered, “Isn’t it a bit much to be trash–talking and hitting his picture in his own

“Do you really think he’d have surveillance in his office?” Whitney snorted, scanning the room suspiciously.
She noticed a one–way mirror on the wall; the other side was probably another office.
At that moment, just a mirror away, the tall man stood with his arms crossed, an assistant beside him sweating bullets as he listened to the young madam’s tirade.
But the boss had a deep, amused smile on his lips like a man watching his kitten put up a playful fight utterly adorable
“No use. Tiana! With the way Monica cozied up to him, he took the bait. What’s the point of me even trying?”
Whitney slumped into a chair, her defeat weighing heavily on her.

Whitney stiffened, then stood abruptly.
“Stay put.” The man raised an intrigued eyebrow, strode over, and grasped her delicate foot in his warm palm with one swift move. “This desk is worth three million, a fitting throne for your dainty feet.”
Before Whitney could react, he playfully tickled the sole of her foot, sending her face into a blaze.
She tried to pull away, but his firm grip held her in place, immobilizing her with just three fingers.
