Hope It's Not Too Late to Love novel Chapter 837

Chapter 837

Larry had spoken in such a hurried manner that it seemed as if something terrible had happened.

Vania put on a shocked look. "What happened?"

The look was convincing enough, even though she still did not know what on earth was going on.

Still, it was surely nothing big.

However, as soon as she asked that, Larry sighed for the fourth time. He then said to her in a secretive manner, "A new secretary came in this morning."

"Yes. What about it?" Can he finish his explanation?

Does he think he's telling a story? Is he trying to keep me on the edge of my seat?

Does Larry think I'm some evil housewife who is jealous of a secretary whom I have never met before?

"She doesn't know of the president's rules and wore a very revealing outfit today. She delivered documents to him," he explained, smacking his leg in emphasis.

"In the end, Mr. Luke's face clouded over. For the entire morning, he has been on a short fuse. Anyone could trigger him."

He found this to be a rather unfortunate outcome since the new secretary was rather pretty and smart. He did not expect her to kill her own career on the first day of the job.

"Is that all?" From the way he acted, it was as if something major had happened.

There was a dismissive look on her face because she certainly did not care about what she just heard.

Her devil-may-care attitude made Larry silently sigh. "Mrs. Luke, why do you just not get it? She is clearly trying to seduce President Luke. Can't you sense the danger at all?"

He then abruptly stopped himself to shoot her a look that seemed to be telling her to stop lying. He suspected she was secretly panicking.

The look on his face was so funny that she burst out chuckling. As she laughed, she wondered if she should have appeared to be jealous.

"Alright." Larry stared at her for a few more moments before shaking his head when he saw that she was still smiling. "You had best go talk to him, Mrs. Luke. Otherwise, no work will be done today."

"Okay. Go back to your lunch break and leave this to me," she confidently said.

It seemed like she was right to deliver lunch today.

He was now looking at her like she was his savior and watched her walk through the door of the president's office before walking away.

As Vania stood in front of the office door, she felt countless pairs of eyes boring into her back. Some of those gazes were hopeful while the others were hostile.

Those gazes must have come from Hanson's secretaries. After all, the area behind her was where their desks were located.

She was feeling rather excited as she had not expected to encounter something so fun.

At that thought, she decided to pause and gather her wits. Then, instead of just walking into the room, she knocked on the door.

"Are you in there, sir?" she loudly called out. "I am here with lunch for you."

She even put on a sultry voice, similar to how women who tried to seduce others spoke. She also put all her might into the act.

Even she got goosebumps from the sound of her own voice.

The office went silent. The whispering that had been going on behind her stopped as well, creating an awkward tension in the air.

Nevertheless, she continued to knock on the door and coyly call out, "President Luke, if you don't answer me, I will just come in."

She was about to push the door open when she heard a loud crash. He had smashed something against the floor. Then, she heard Hanson roar, "Scram!"

Annoyance and frustration filled his voice.

She unwittingly flinched for a second. She had to admit that the way he was behaving now was quite terrifying. If she were his secretary, she would have a short life due to being frightened every single day.
