Chapter 591
Neil trotted up the stairs, and very excitedly, rushed up to Taya.
“One billion, we must celebrate!”
Hearing so, Taya withdrew her gaze and shifted it to Neil. “How do
you want to celebrate?”
With his arms folded around his chest, stroking his chin, Neil
pondered out loud, “I heard that Rustic Place is better than Nightshade, perhaps… we shall visit the pub and have fun!”
Seeing through his lustful thoughts, Taya jokingly teased, “Shouldn’t you be all proper and set yourself as a role model?”
With a serious face, Neil corrected her, “You’re wrong, I’m not a
role model, and nor should I even be considered a human being. I’m just an intelligent animal.”
Taya couldn’t help laughing. She retrieved her phone and called
Harper to book a private room.
It just so happened that they received their payment from the NASA that day so from the company’s financial account, Neil transferred the money to Taya so that they would have enough money to thoroughly enjoy their time.
Out of worry, Taya couldn’t help asking Neil, “The staff in the
company should have probably seen my sister. Will there be any problem with it?”
Neil waved. “Rosalie permanently resided in Aronland. She
hadn’t been back much. Plus, I was the one who recruited all the members of the company.”
Hearing so, Taya heaved a sigh of relief. “If that’s the case, the
celebration party will be the day after tomorrow.”
She was exhausted from staying up all night working on her drawings the night before and hadn’t had much sleep.
Plus, Preston had reserved Harper’s place for three days, and they
would have to wait for Preston to vacate the rooms.
Seeing that Neil had no objections, Taya turned around, picked up
the scroll on the table and handed it to him.
“This is the drawing for the second project. I only managed to
produce a sketch, and I’ll need your help to finish up the rest. Plus,
please complete the site surveys for the rest of the projects, only then can I come up with the drawings as soon as possible.”
Watching as she gave her orders, Neil seemed to have seen the former Rosalie as he couldn’t help obeying Taya in awe. “Yes,
boss!”
After Taya greeted the architects in the company and got familiar
with the environment, she picked up her bag and left the
company.
As if expecting her to exit the building at the moment, the expensive Koenigsegg pulled up to a stop before her.
The noble man shrouded in an icy temperament got off the driver’s seat and gentlemanly opened the door for her.
“Get in the car.”
Taya gave him a glance, and after several seconds of pondering, walked straight toward him without any hesitation.
Just as she bent over to get into the car, Griffon shielded her head with his fingers.
The careful movements stunned Taya briefly. Griffon had never done such a thing…
The man went around and got into the car before closing the door and looking sideways at Taya silently in her seat.
The faint scent of fragrance lingered in the narrow space, adding traces of ambiguity to their silent atmosphere…
Not at ease, Taya plucked up her courage to ask why he wouldn’t drive when he leaned over and pressed down on her.
Noticing the tall sturdy figure and the flawless face approaching, accompanied by the scent of cedar, Taya tensed up.
Her hands subconsciously clenched as she looked into the eyes under the gold-rimmed glasses. The overwhelming yearning for her cast through the lenses to sprinkle onto her heart.
The man’s fingers circled the top of her head, reaching for the window before he gently pulled the seat belt and fastened it for
her.
Taya had thought that he would retreat after buckling her seat
belt, but little had she expected him to press in a little closer…
As his tall nose brushed against her cheeks, his head averted
slightly to the side, brushing past her hair while he gently nipped
on her upper ear.
“Taya…”
The hot breath warmer than that in the office spread into her
eardrums bit by bit, as if jolted by an electric current, left her entire
body numb, shivering.
“Help me…”
Taya, shrunk in the car seat and dared not move an inch, had her
clear eyes widened in surprise hearing his words.
As if not to have realized so, Griffon’ lips slid down a little more,
leaving a light kiss on her after one more gentle bite on her
earlobe.
“Taya, help me…”
The cold touch intertwined with the warm sensation,
accompanied by the deep raspy voice, once again carried a slight tremor that sent Taya’s heart furiously pounding.
Her instinctive reaction was to land her gaze on his lower abdomen, and at the sight of the protruding part of his body under the suit pants, she gulped in nervousness.
“I…can’t-can’t help you…”
Griffon raised his dazed hawk eyes to rub his fluttering eyelashes against the itchiest part of Taya’s skin by her ears.
“You can.”
Just as Taya was about to say no, she heard the man’s melodious
voice, “Could you help me take off my glasses?”
