Chapter 272 The Lost Naivety

It was five in the evening—the usual hour for employees to knock off at the Hunter Group. Courtney would also leave around that timing as well, but Alexander had to work overtime since there were many problems with the finances.

“You really don’t need me to wait for you?” She knocked on the door with a smile on her face.

He raised his head to look at her from behind the computer. Even though he was tired, he immediately felt more energetic the moment he looked at her. “No need. After I’m almost done with looking at the accounts, I’ll head back home.”

“Now, I’m quite embarrassed about this. Do you want me to increase your pay?”

“You don’t look like you’re embarrassed at all. Alexander coldly squinted his eyes at her. Then, he curled his finger before gesturing at her. “Come here.”

 

“Are you regretting it now?”

Courtney released her grip on the door knob and naturally walked into the office to his table. Then, she slightly bent down to look at him. “If you regret what you’ve just said, it’s not too late—I can accompany you here.”

 

With that, Alexander raised his huge hand and placed it behind her head. Then, he pressed her down to him and kissed her soft lips before she could react.

Courtney struggled against his hold and anxiously looked behind her while muttering, “Um… The door is still open. What are you doing?”

Initially, it had caused a huge reaction after she hired Alexander to manage the company’s finances. If someone saw them behaving inappropriately in the living room and reported it to the board of directors, it would be difficult for her to explain.

With a calm look on his face, he arched his eyebrows and answered nonchalantly, “That’s it. You can leave now.”
