The CEO Gets What He Wants

Chapter 589 A Confused Avery

Nicole's heels clicked against the floor as she made her way into Felix's office and shut the door behind her.

Her movements were graceful as she sauntered over to his desk. Slowly, she removed her sunglasses as Felix gaped at her in surprise.

“Ms. Lambert, how may I assist you?” Felix asked as he straightened his back and put on his glasses.

With a smile, Nicole retrieved a check for ten million from her pink handbag and slid it toward him.

“I require your assistance with something, Dr. Sollo,” she said.

Felix's heart sank as a sense of foreboding filled him despite her sweet smile. “What can I do for you, Ms. Lambert?” he asked, knowing that her request would not be a pleasant one.

As expected, his heart went cold upon hearing her words.

“I need you to manipulate the DNA report you conducted for Evangeline so that it matches my parents' DNA. It should be an easy task for you, right? You know what I mean, Dr. Sollo. I heard that you just purchased a new mansion and could use some extra funds. This check is a small gift from me to you.”

Felix abruptly stood up, causing his glasses to slide down his nose.

He chided righteously, “Ms. Lambert, this is against my professional ethics. I will do no such thing. You know very well who your father is. The professional career that I have built up over the years will be ruined if he finds out that I rigged the report. Please take your cheque away, Ms. Lambert. I will not go against my conscience to accept this black money even if I need extra funds.”

Nicole's lips curved into a wicked smile as she stared at Felix. “How bold of you to say that, Felix. I hope you don't regret it later,” she taunted. With deliberate intent, she walked past his desk and stood before him, her fingers already working to tear her blouse apart.

Her v-neck off-shoulder sleeveless top revealed part of her cleavage, and as she ripped her top apart, little was left to the imagination.

Felix tried to stand up as he watched on warily, but Nicole forced
