Chapter 37 Lovestruck CEO

Throughout the meeting, Elliot was visibly distracted, his thoughts repeatedly drifting back to Corynn.

What was she up to now? Had she eaten lunch yet? Was she getting enough rest? Questions about Corynn kept

swirling in his mind.

In a daze, Elliot subconsciously searched for his phone and looked for Corynn’s picture.

After a few swipes, his gaze landed on her pretty face, bright and resolute, exuding an aura of maturity and confidence. This Corynn was dazzling–far more radiant than the old Corynn, making it hard for Elliot to ignore

her.

As Elliot, absentmindedly traced the contours of Corynn’s face in the photo with his thumb, his usually steely expression softened into one of affection.

Just then, the person presenting during the meeting suddenly looked up and saw the doting look on Elliot’s face. He gulped, feeling a chill run down his spine.

What the hell was going on? Elliot had never shown a soft side to him before!

The man’s eyes darted around the meeting room, only to see that his colleagues also looked as though they had

seen a ghost.

Was Elliot so distracted because of his fiancee, Amanda?

But they quickly dismissed the thought; after all, although Elliot always respected Amanda, he had never shown such a tender expression to her before.

However, the look on Elliot’s face now seemed almost… lovesick.

Could it be that he had actually fallen in love with someone? But who?

Elliot soon noticed that the meeting had gone oddly quiet. He looked up and saw the odd looks on everyone’s faces, his expression instantly turning frosty. “Are you done reporting?”

Everyone immediately snapped back to attention, burying their curiosity for the time being.
