Wolf President Hooks Up novel Chapter 180

“Who doesn’t have any problems at all? Everyone would have problems at any point in time, or are you saying they should just consume alcohol every time they have some problems? The sellers of beer and wine would be beyond happy if they hear this. They would have made a massive fortune.”

Elaine positions the beer glass on the table as she holds Emmett’s arms and pulls him from the wine cabinet and heads towards where the boss is sitting. She nags along the way, “Come, you should faster reprise your role as the president here. Let me take a sniff at you… Oh, you are starting to reek of alcohol! It’s going to give others a bad impression if you smell like a drunkard so early in the morning. Wait a minute; let me get you a glass of water to rinse your mouth…”

Emmett just watches Elaine’s busy figure moving around and a strange warm sensation is permeating through him.

Elaine makes sure Emmett is following her advice as he rinses his mouth, spraying the inner of his mouth with some breath freshener and then taking a sip of tea.

“Let me call those members of top brass one by one into the office…”

Just as Elaine has just turned around, Emmett suddenly grabs her wrist and pulls her into his embrace.

“Hey, what are you doing?”

“I don’t have enough energy left…” Emmett blows at Elaine’s tiny nose with an ambiguous smile on his face.

Elaine is slightly stunned by him.

Bullshit! How can he lack energy, for someone so ridiculously energetic like him?

He can go at it all night long for several consecutive hours and he won’t even bat any eyelid or complain that he’s tired.

His stamina lasts very long… it is as if he’s as potent as a robot.

How can he have the nerve to claim that he doesn’t have any energy left?

He’s just bluffing.

“Hey, please hold your act together. Don’t fret. There is a large group of people out there whom you still have to meet, Mr. Smith.”

Elaine wants to flee, but she is trapped without any space to manoeuvre in Emmett’s embrace. He is starting to play his tricks now, “Kiss me here. As long as you can plant a kiss here, I feel like my energy will return to its full amount.”

Emmett pouts his lips as he says that.

Boom… Elaine’s face is flushed right now as she glares hard at Emmett, “You are really too much… didn’t we only kiss just now? I won’t entertain you anymore! You moron!”

Elaine slips out of Emmett’s grip and escapes him with a nervous heart.

Emmett watches Elaine acting like that and he simply lets out a faint laugh in response.

Elaine, oh Elaine, my dear little girl. Who can tell me how should I treat you?

Emmett proceeds to work on his job, but from time to time, he would steal glances at Elaine who’s visible outside the door when he can get a tiny break from his busy work.

He would feel his heart tightened and then a warm current would spread through him.

“Ms. Jones, come in for a minute.”

The speaker transmits Emmett’s formal tone which he only uses at work throughout the office, and in response Elaine hastily clicks off a gaming website while hurriedly dashes into Emmett’s office.

A few representatives from the sales department are sitting on the sofa inside. Elaine stands by the door as she asks timidly, “Mr. Smith, are you looking for me?”

“Yes, help me order takeaways for lunch for all the secretaries. Everyone has to work overtime today.”

His cool and calculated gaze falls upon Elaine, and she shrinks slightly when she meets his gaze.

Emmett’s lips form a subconscious smile at that moment.

“Alright, I got it.”

Elaine nods lightly before exiting his office.

Order takeaways… it seems that the company is very busy today. The employees can’t even go out to have lunch by themselves.

“Hey everyone. Mr. Smith announced that we are going to have takeaways for lunch today. What do you guys want to eat?”

Elaine stands in the middle of the secretary room as she announces loudly.

The other secretaries jump up in unison, “Oh, so we are eating takeaways today.”

“That’s right. We have too many tasks to attend to so that we can catch up with the progress.”

“I want to eat the Cantonese fast food next door.”

“I like Sichuan fast food!”

“The fast food restaurant in the Eastern District is not bad too.”

The secretaries all break into a discussion.

Elaine takes down their orders meticulously by making sure the food and the numbers are correct.

After all, she has a lot of time to kill anyway. Therefore, it is not a chore for her to order takeaways, but rather, she is happy to oblige.

She calls several restaurants which provide takeaway services and completes her task. At the same time, her new phone rings.

“Oh, the ringtone of this new phone is really pleasing to the ears. I can’t get used to it yet.”

Elaine mutters while answering the call.

“Hello, may I know who are you?”

“I…”

There is a silky smooth voice sounding at the other end of the phone.

It was a sweet, light and bubbly voice.

Uh…

“Master Young!”

Elaine immediately suppresses the volume of her voice as she turns around and scans her surroundings. She is really afraid that Emmett would suddenly appear out of nowhere and catch her red-handed.

She is really disappointed at herself for being under Emmett’s total control. This dynamic of their relationship even makes her think that it is a sin to talk to Oliver.

“Hey, it’s you. Master Young, how is your arm?”

Elaine covers the receiver of her phone while heading towards the ventilation area. There is nobody on the roof, and she doesn’t need to be aware of Emmett’s sudden intrusion.

“Hey Elaine, consider me begging you for this once, please? Stop calling me as Master Young.”

“Then how should I address you?”
