Coralie Chariott wanted to work in the company while keeping a low profile. She didn't want to become a public figure as a result of her sitting next to Skylar Holland today.
"I want you to sit next to me,"
The man lowered his voice and said.
"I don't want to sit by your side. I'm not Corrine Quincy. I don't want to attract any attention,"
Coralie told him exactly what was in her mind.
She could feel that the colleagues around her, especially the female colleagues, were looking at her strangely.
It seemed like the mistress had replaced the wife.
"Why? Does sitting next to me makes you feel ashamed?"
While Skylar was speaking, Coralie felt quite clearly that he had pressed her leg with his, in order to pin her down.
"Take it off."
"What if I don't?"
The two of them argued quietly. At first, Skylar had a serious expression. However, this time, there was a hint of playfulness on his face.
The tablecloth was very long and it reached the ground. Skylar and Coralie were seated in the innermost position, so others couldn't see what they were doing under the table.
At this time, Corrine, who had sorted out her hair, came out of the bathroom in a hurry. She discovered that Coralie was sitting in her seat. Also, the tableware in front of her had been replaced with new ones. Her beautiful eyes became dark, and she bit her lips hard.
Although she was unwilling, she had to sit at another table.
Many high-ranking leaders of Forest Paper Company were seated at Skylar's table. They were all busy sucking up to Skylar, and they didn't question Coralie who was seated here.
"Coralie, is it true that you have just started at our company not too long ago?"
It was the company manager who spoke.
"Yes, I have been here for less than a month,"
Coralie answered seriously.
She was answering the question, but she felt a hand caressing her leg slowly under the table.
"What are you doing?"
"I'm bored."
"Skylar, don't cross the line."
"This is just the beginning. Don't be anxious."
"Coralie, what's wrong with you? Why is your face so red?"
One of the leaders seemed to notice that Coralie looked a little uncomfortable. Her face was red and her eyes were a little vacuous.
"I... I..." Coralie stammered.
"It was the alcohol. She did that because she's tipsy," Skylar said.
Coralie couldn't think of an excuse, so he helped her out.
In fact, everyone could see that Coralie had not drunk any of her wine. It was all poured onto Corrine's head.
