Chapter 132 Playing Hard to Get
Ruth left Miles‘ office feeling very satisfied. She kept her head down shyly with her face flushed. She glanced around quickly to see if anyone was watching and then hurried back to her office.
“Ruth, what took you so long? What were you talking about with Mr. Miles in his office?”
A designer who was close to Ruth immediately asked when she saw her return.
Ruth paused for a moment and said shyly, “Oh, nothing much. Mr. Miles just gave me a lot of advice on my design and guided me on how to revise my drafts.”
The designer smiled and teased Ruth when she noticed her bright red face, “Why is your face so red if you guys were just talking about work?”
Ruth immediately covered her face and stammered, “Oh, stop it, Jane.”
After saying that, she ran off.
Jane Quinn watched Ruth leave with a peculiar glint in her eyes and silently returned to her work.
Meanwhile, Miles was in the restroom, frantically scrubbing his arm. He even considered taking a shower right there in his office, but unfortunately, there wasn’t a bathroom provided.
Miles‘ hands were sore from all the scrubbing now, but he could still feel Ruth’s perfume lingering in the air no matter how many times he washed his hands. He was disgusted by her
touch.
He hadn’t expected Ruth to try to seduce him. However, he had to play along for now to see what she was up to.
Thinking about Ruth made Miles feel sick to his stomach.
Once he had cleaned himself, Miles took a deep breath and went straight to Kate’s office.
“My muse, that woman is disgusting and terrifying. How much longer do I have to endure this? My chastity that I have protected all these years will be ruined by her!”
