Chapter 231 Sealed by a Kiss

“I’ll come get it another day.”

“Frederick, are you out of your mind?”

If he hadn’t been her boss‘ brother, she would have hit him already.

Frederick kept silent.

“I’m busy! Let me down, now.”

“Sit still.”

“Do you want me to tear you apart?”

She grabbed his collar, and two buttons popped open, revealing his toned chest.

“I have information on the Corbin family.”

Tess‘ eyes flickered. “Really?”

“Yes.”

“Why didn’t you say so earlier?”

Tess quickly smoothed his white shirt and smiled awkwardly.

“Sorry about that. I didn’t mean it. It was just a misunderstanding.”

Frederick chuckled. “If you’re sorry, promise me one thing after this is over.”

“Just name it.”

Her smile froze at once. “Let me be clear: I’m not selling myself.”

“Do I look like that kind of man?”

“Hard to say.”

Frederick was speechless.

“Mr. Shaw.”

“Call me Frederick from now on.”

Tess blushed and stammered, “I didn’t! I grabbed your collar. I never touched you, I swear.”

“Fine, I’ll take you back. You can investigate alone.”

“No, Frederick! Stella’s your sister. You wouldn’t let her be in danger. You’re a total sister- obsessed guy. Can’t break that character.”

Frederick’s lips curved upward.

Frederick’s face darkened.

She had him right where she wanted.

He rolled up the partition between the front and back seats, held her head, and kissed her forehead. “Sealed.”

“You-”

“We’re here. Let’s go see the Corbin files.”

Tess held back her urge to hit him.

She followed him into his mansion and down to the basement. Her eyes widened at the family tree of the Corbin clan.

“You dug really deep.”

Tess gave him a thumbs–up.

“I helped you a lot. Don’t I deserve a proper thank you?”

Frederick walked to the wall and tapped Kael’s photo with his long finger.

“Mr. Shaw, you’re not just helping me. You’re helping your sister. Everyone in Azure Peak says you’re the perfect brother, right?”

Frederick laughed.

Tess studied the family tree carefully.

“Can I have Stella come over?”

“Yes.”

“She’s brilliant. She’ll figure this out in no time.”

Frederick smiled.

This woman mentions Stella nonstop, and praises her at every chance.

Anyone who cares for Stella couldn’t be bad.

She turned around, met his tender eyes, and quickly looked away.

Has no one told him he looks better cold? Those loving eyes are unnerving.

Is this powerful CEO falling for me just because I help his sister?

“Don’t you want a closer relationship with Stella?”

“How?”

Frederick stepped toward her, his presence pressing down. She backed away until her back hit the wall.

He leaned in, one hand against the wall, meeting her gaze.

“For example… marry me.”

Tess looked up, caught in his charming eyes, and her heart raced.

She tried to push him, but he stood firm as a mountain.

“Well? Think about it.”

Tess grabbed his tie. They were so close she could feel his breath. The air turned heavy with

thought she might stop breathing.

One word, and their lips would meet.

She tried to pull away, but Frederick caught her hands and lifted them above her head. His other hand tilted her chin up.

“I already sealed the deal. If I don’t take responsibility, people will call me a player.”
