Chapter 309

All this while, I thought he was a by-the-book, old-fashioned gentleman. Between the two of us, he was the no-nonsense type, while my mind was constantly in the gutter. "You could try it if you don't believe me," Brandon teased, his gaze piercing into my soul and making my face warm.

I pinched him and said primly, "I won't tell you if you won't listen to me."

"Yes, but not about Chris. I'm worried about the company," I said immediately, making my position clear.

"I know," he murmured as he rubbed his cheek against the top of my head. "You probably think things are turning more complicated than you expected, huh?"
