Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 97

Teddy spoke with a cool detachment, "This is the CEO's office. You can't just stroll in here without permission. Please, leave."

But Lisa acted like she didn't hear a word he said and marched right in. She spotted Connor sitting in his office chair and immediately put on a bright smile. "Mr. Connor, do you remember me? We met at your grandmother's birthday party."

Even as Lisa spoke, she felt a bit awkward. After all, she had been in the secretarial department for two weeks and hadn’t even exchanged a single word with Connor. Claiming to be his assistant would be a stretch since he probably didn’t even know who she was. So, she approached him on a personal note, especially since what she wanted to discuss was personal.

"Lisa?" Connor's voice was soft, almost curious.

By then, Teddy had come up behind her, ready to show her out. Hearing Connor call her name made him pause for a moment before he respectfully asked, "Sir?"

Connor sat in his fine leather office chair, looking every bit the sophisticated CEO in his tailored suit. His cold, handsome features were unmatched. He had been signing documents, his hand strikingly elegant and well-defined.

Lisa was almost mesmerized. Just one look at him made her heart race. Especially when he said her name in that deep, magnetic voice—it sent a shiver down her spine. The most surprising part was that during their brief encounter that day, they hadn’t even spoken, but Connor somehow remembered her name. What did that mean? It meant their first meeting had left a strong impression on him, and he might have even asked about her afterward.

With this realization, Lisa could hardly contain her excitement. Connor’s next words only confirmed her thoughts.

"Teddy, leave us," Connor said, his lips barely moving.

He didn't scold her for barging in. Instead, he sent Teddy away.
