Love Coming From The Least Expected novel Chapter 233

Thinking that I was concealing things very well, I crawled back into bed secretly, smiling and preparing to close my eyes. I did not expect that Christopher was actually awake, and just as I closed my eyes, he opened his and smirked.

“Are you still awake?” I was startled and felt guilty as I asked.

“You’ve awoken me again. Don’t roll around and go to sleep!” Christopher held me tight in his embrace like an octopus clutching my body. “Eve, I need to remind you that I’m a normal man, and I need to rest. If you keep seducing me, we’ve got a problem. So, be a good girl.”

I hit his chest with my head and glared at him angrily. As if I was the one seducing you! Hmph! It was obvious that the man was talking to himself. After doing it three times just now, I knew he was aroused once again.

Heading back to the office after one week, I heard murmuring the moment I walked into the hall. I did not bother but went straight to the thirteenth floor. Mave, who was furiously typing on the keyboard in front of the desktop, greeted me warmly when she saw me walking in. Then she took the breakfast from my hands.

“Vonnie, you being away on a business trip is a torture to me because I did not have even one good breakfast. Knowing you’re back today, I could cry with joy.” As she wolfed down the food, Mave mumbled indistinctly.

“You ought to move closer to the office so you wouldn’t have to be in the subway that early. Then you would have time for breakfast.” I laughed.

Of course everyone thought I went on a “business trip.” But come to think of it, have I become the main character? I mean—how lucky am I to not needing to look for a job and instead could have the job come looking for me?

“I would like to but room rentals in the city are too high, and I would have to spend half of my salary on it. Only the basement room rentals are cheaper, so it’s better if I live further away. At least, my home is comfortable and safe,” Mave replied sadly. “I envy those living in the city.”
