Chapter 223

Xander seemed to remember something, a soft starlight appearing deep in his eyes. “Someone with a good appetite in food.”

Emma:“…Ah?”

Later.

I had eaten most of the dishes I ordered.

[

put down my phone and looked over at their progress.

Looking up, they were gone.

Huh, where did they go?

I called for the bill.

A man approached me before the waiter, confidently smiling.“Miss, may I know your name?”

‘No.”

Then, may I…”

‘No.”

I efficiently dealt with the man, paid the bill, and lowered my head to message.

The table was tapped twice.

Thinking it was another pickup attempt, I replied with the three–part response, “I have a boyfriend, I can’t, it’s not convenient.”

…What do you have?”

A clear, low voice expressed confusion.

A second before he spoke, I sent the message.

I looked up.

My elegant boss stood before me.

He slowly picked up his phone and opened it. It was the message I had just sent him: Mr. Shaw, since you and Ms. Emma are getting o know each other, I’ll leave work now.

Kander frowned. “Besides leaving work, is there no other life aspiration?”

…,” I pretended to consider seriously. “Yes, I want to be a billionaire.”

Kander laughed.“With your lack of ambition.”

He shook his head disapprovingly and walked away.

I grabbed my bag and followed.

Leaving the restaurant, going downstairs, getting into the car…I didn’t ask him about Emma.

Whether there was a sequel was his business, I shouldn’t meddle and cause trouble.

I didn’t want to, but someone insisted I did.

“Secretary Wells, what do you think of Ms. Emma? Give your assessment as a advisor.”

A cool voice came from behind.

Ah, the boss’s difficulties had finally arrived,

I answered truthfully, “She’s very beautiful and elegant, quite a match for Mr. Shaw. Also, from my observation, you both seem satisfied with each other. I think you can get to know each other better. I fully understand it is impossible for werewolves to find their fated mates. But Ms. Emma seems a good partner.”

After I spoke, the car was as quiet as hell.

Derek’s heart cried out, his wolf showed his highest respect to me, “OH MY GOD, EVERY WORD IS A LANDMINE! I HAD NEVER SEEN SUCH A DENSE AND TERRIFYING CLUSTER OF LANDMINES! SOPHIA, YOU’RE NOT JUST

DANCING ON MR. SHAW’S LANDMINES; YOU’RE PLANTING MORE!”

Seeing that the person behind hadn’t spoken for a long time, and given the deadly atmosphere, I cleared my throat.“…I’m just giving my opinion, it might not be accurate, it still depends on Mr. Shaw’s thoughts.”

The person behind remained silent.

Derek: Sigh, Mr. Shaw is a masochist.

The air became completely still.

Xander folded his arms, his face like fine jade carving.

The oppressive atmosphere lasted until we reached the apartment.

I braced myself and rode the same elevator with him, watching the numbers ascend,4,5,6,7… Hurry up, hurry up!

‘Ding–”

A heavenly sound.

I quickly stepped out.“Mr. Shaw, goodbye!”

As the elevator doors were about to close, a slender hand reached out from inside.

The doors opened again.

Xander stepped out of the elevator, quickly catching up, grabbing my wrist, pulling me back, and circling my waist with a hint of dominance.

My back bumped into his chest.

Warm air brushed against me, my palm felt hot; he whispered huskily in my ear, “I’ve thought about it, and I feel it’s necessary to give you my feedback.”

My heartbeat quickened, my breath became disordered.

The atmosphere became increasingly hot.

I felt a surge of waves in my heart, one higher than the last, as if about to knock me unconscious. My wolf struggled to make a Sound. “SOPHIA, HIS SCENT SEEMS OFF. IT MIGHT HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH HIM BEING THE FUTURE

ALPHA…”

“Can’t we skip this…?”

I replied softly, my voice so small that only I could hear it.I could sense his powerful body was pressing against against mine.
