Chapter 258

Chapter 258 Noelle headed straight to United Press , Nicolass company headquarters .

Ever since the acquisition of the Sawyer Group , things had been chaotic .

The entire company was buzzing , and as the head of it all , Nicolas was busier than ever .

Paperwork stacked like mountains awaited him every day .

Standing outside the CEOs office , Noelle took a deep breath , steadying the fluttering in her chest .

Once her emotions were in check , she lifted the comers of her lips into a bright smile and pushed the door open .

Nicolas Inside , Nicolas was buried in documents , clearly on the verge of burnout .

He hadnt been this swamped in a long time , and his naturally prickly temper was showing .

High level execs had been avoiding one on one meetings like the plague , afraid of his mood swings .

But the moment Noelle walked in without knocking , no less Nicolas performed a live demonstration of world class double standards .

His scowl disappeared instantly .

When he saw her , his whole face lit up .

He dropped his pen without hesitation and opened his arms .

Noelle Without missing a beat , Noelle rushed into his embrace .

Holding her close , Nicolas began , Did everything go well But before he could finish , he felt Noelle rubbing her face insistently against his chest .

Confused , he glanced down , only to find her nuzzling into him with a determined vengeance her lips even pressing and grinding against the fabric of his shirt like she was trying to scrub away a layer of skin .

The friction was maddening .

As a healthy , fully functioning man , Nicolass breath began to catch .

She was igniting a fire in his chest and not the metaphorical kind .

And yet , here she was , stoking the flames with no intention of helping him put them out .

Just before things got dangerously close to combusting , Nicolas sucked in a breath and gently peeled her off him . He stared at her flusted lips , now swollen from all the rubbing , and chuckled in spite of himself .
