Chapter 52 The Door Wasn't Locked

Ethan's intentions were clear, but this was just too wild. I remembered I hadn't locked the door, and someone could walk in any moment. That would be embarrassing. I nervously pushed him away. "I worked all night, I'm tired."

Ethan wasn't backing off. He leaned in and whispered, "Don't worry about being tired, I'll do the work."

I couldn't resist him, but I was worried about the unlocked door.

He probably knew this wasn't the place for a long session, so he got straight to the point. "Honey, I can give you everything you want and make you the happiest woman." I could barely think, vaguely understanding he was talking about his CEO status.

I stammered, "Money doesn't always bring happiness, and not having money doesn't mean unhappiness. When I didn't have money before, having family around made me happy." Ethan smiled. Just then, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Ethan grabbed an ashtray and threw it at the door. It hit with a loud thud and shattered. The knocking stopped immediately. Seeing him so frustrated made me want to laugh a little.

A few minutes later, everything calmed down. We straightened our clothes, and Ethan went to open the door.

The door really hadn't been locked, but the assistant didn't dare come in without a response. It seemed Ethan was usually a strict boss. He probably knew they wouldn't dare come in, which was why he felt so free earlier. The assistant stood at the door, trembling, scared by the noise.

"What is it?" Ethan's expression was serious, and his demeanor turned cold.

"Mr. Windsor, the editor-in-chief of Starlight Times is here." The assistant kept his head down, not daring to look at him.

Ethan acknowledged and glanced at me.

I thought he was going to send me away, but he said, "Let him in."

He then sat back in his chair, resuming his composed demeanor.

I sat on the sofa where we had just been, still able to smell the lingering scent of hormones in the air.

Soon, the editor-in-chief of Starlight Times arrived. He glanced at me, then ignored me, shaking hands with Ethan before sitting opposite him.
