Messing With Her? Are You Crazy! novel Chapter 318

Instead…

She allowed Nicholas to slowly, inch by inch, draw closer.

He looked ready to claim his payment.

Just as the distance between them reached a dangerously close point—

“Sir! Miss Lancaster!”

Suddenly, Nathaniel’s voice came from the direction of the elevator. “The group outside has completely withdrawn! They must have realized their probe failed and that our security is impenetrable. They’ve given up for now!”

The elevator doors opened.

Nathaniel rushed out.

The moment his voice rang out.

On pure reflex, Serena shot her hand up, slapping it right over the man’s face, which was just about to touch hers.

His warm, thin lips pressed into her palm, sending a scorching sensation through her.

She pushed hard.

Caught off guard, the man stumbled back two steps and promptly fell to the floor.

Serena averted her gaze, looking nonchalantly at the monitors, and said with a blank expression, “Yeah, I figured as much. You should get some rest. They won’t make another move tonight.”

Nathaniel stood a short distance from the console, stammering a reply to Serena.

But his gaze was fixed in utter disbelief on his boss…

His boss, sprawled somewhat undignifiedly on the floor!

Nathaniel’s eyes widened. He glanced at Serena.

Then back at his boss, then back at Serena.

“D-Did they have a fight?” Nathaniel muttered to himself. “No, that’s not right… Why is Miss Lancaster’s face so red?”

Nicholas propped one long leg up. Even in such an awkward position on the floor, he was still handsome.

His face was just that good.

He remained seated and glanced up at Nathaniel. “It’s fine, Nathaniel. Go get some rest.”

Nathaniel looked at his boss, then at Serena again.

And suddenly, it clicked!

It was the middle of the night.

A man and a woman, alone in a room, in the middle of the night… those words added up.
