Love or Die CEO’s Daily Dose of Swoon

Chapter 69

Calvert couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth as he witnessed the whole scene.

It was cles, that Cordelia was still somewhat resistant to such displays of affection, which was why Everard had to get creative, resorting to the kind of moves that might seem like a playboy taking his advantage.

Calvert let out a sigh.

It was Cordelia who was supposed to be under the curse of “love of die“. Yet, somehow, it was Everard who seemed totally smitten.

Having known the boss for years, Calvert had never seen him so invested in anyone!

As he shook his head in bemusement, Everard, dressed in a crisp black shirt, slowly clenched his fist and turned to glare icily in his direction. Calvert stiffened and hurriedly blurted out, “Boss, the math journal got in touch. In two days, they’ll publish Cordelia’s paper!”

Everard nodded in satisfaction, pocketed his hands, and settled back behind the counter to ponder.

Calvert couldn’t help but ask, “Boss, what’s on your mind?”

Everard replied, “Thinking about my girl.”
