“Where is your boss? Why hasn’t she come yet?” 

As Emily entered Matteo’s law firm, she heard him yelling, and the anger was evident in his voice.

Nervously biting her lip, she quickened her pace toward his office. She found her staff standing with their heads lowered, including Carl, while Matteo radiated raw anger around him. 

“Mr. Vinci,” she called softly, her voice slicing through the tension in the room. Matteo turned his head sharply toward her, and his heart skipped a beat as he took in the sight of the beautiful woman striding confidently in his direction. In that moment, everything else faded away; nothing existed but her. 

Her blue eyes sparkled with something that took his breath away, catching in his throat. Silky, soft caramel brown curls danced in the air, framing her face and giving her a dreamlike allure, even in a formal sky- blue dress. The scarf around her neck added an extra touch of elegance, accentuating her grace. In that instant, she was the most stunning woman in the entire universe. 

All his anger dissipated, replaced by a pleasant sense of joy. He couldn’t tear his eyes away from the only face that felt like the center of his universe. 

“What’s wrong?” Emily asked hesitantly, glancing around to inspect the work before looking at her staff for any hints. “Did my team disappoint you?” she inquired in a professional tone as she stopped before him

Emily forced a smile, feeling upset that he had scolded her staff just a minute ago, only to turn around and flirt with her. “I see your newfound interest in French still lingers,” she commented sarcastically. 

“I find it even sweeter when it’s meant for you,” he replied huskily, giving her a mischievous wink. 

Emily sighed, shaking her head. “Mr. Vinci-” 

“Matteo,” he cut in. 

“Alright, Matteo, may I ask what made you so upset that you halted my staff from working on redesigning your office?” she asked, crossing her arms across her chest. 

Matteo casually slipped his hands into his pockets, standing before her as he unabashedly checked her out. Emily narrowed her eyes in the challenge, but Matteo didn’t seem to mind, his gaze lingering on her.
