Chapter 107 Lovesick
Looking at Susan's reddened face, a smile crept onto Julian’s face, "What's wrong? Are you lovestruck?”
Although it was true... Susan still rolled her eyes," Shameless."
"No need to be shy," Julian said calmly. "You're not the first to be lovestruck for me, and you won't be the last."
Susan felt speechless towards this man’s confidence.
"Was the theme for the first round of the competition released today?" Fortunately, Julian got distracted quickly.
"Yep," Susan had a sudden burst of energy at the mention of the competition. "It's quite challenging -the theme is a mystery. I just had some inspiration, I plan to... and then..."
Susan began raving about her ideas.
After a while, she suddenly stopped and said apologetically, "Sorry, you are probably not interested i n this."
"No, I am. I'm interested in everything involving you," Julian said nonchalantly.
AAAAAH.
Susan’s body temperature began rising again.
Could this rascal just stop flirting with her already?
Susan blushed and said, "You... Are you busy today? Feeling tired?”
"It's fine," Julian brushed it aside. Then, he looked at Susan in her eyes, "I'm not busy or tired, just missing you a little too much."
AAAAAH.
Again!
Susan felt overwhelmed with embarrassment.
"You... You are coming back soon anyway," she said quietly.
Julian sighed, "A day without you feels like three years."
Susan examined Julian’s expression. He said he was neither busy nor tired, but he looked incredibly exhausted.
She felt sorry for him, "Julian, you should go to sleep soon. You still have work tomorrow."
Julian rubbed his eyes, "But I'll miss you if I don't see you."
Susan's face turned a shade redder, "You can look at m e as much as you want when you get back."
"Promise?" Julian's smile deepened.
"Yes," Susan nodded shyly.
"Well, then, I am really looking forward to the day I return," Julian spoke slowly, teasing her with his
burning gaze.
Susan didn't dare to look at his eyes. She lowered her head and said softly, "So, that's it for today?"
"Okay. But, remember what I said previously. Stay away from Chance Hamilton!" Julian said.
He was still jealous?
Susan felt speechless, "What are you even worried about? Chance cannot even be compared to you."
Julian's expression brightened up immediately.
He was satisfied, "That's true. With a hubby like me, you probably can't have your eyes on anyone else anymore."
Julian's proud face felt a little annoying, but Susan could not help but pull a funny face, "Are you not worried anymore? Then go to sleep."
Susan was going to end the call as she spoke.
"Wait!" Julian stopped her. Then, he smiled and said," Goodnight, Susie."
Susan’s expression softened, "Goodnight."
Late at night, Julian stood before the window wall of his hotel room and leisurely took a final sip of his red wine. His gaze deepened.
For the first time in his life, he felt lovesick.
Susie!
Julian sighed softly.
It seemed like he had to hustle and tighten his schedule even further.
Video calls alone were not enough. He just wanted to g o back sooner and hug Susie in his arms, never letting her go again.
The next day, Susan was busy when she received a text from Sheldon.
Sheldon asked her to go to Universal Tower - he had a document regarding the interior design competition to pass to her.
Susan did not doubt it much. She tidied up her belongings and left.
However, just as she stepped into the building, she felt a little strange.
If it was a document related to the competition, then everyone else should have come too.
However, now, she was the only person in the entire building?
Susan frowned, and she grabbed her phone to ask Chance if he received the text.
Suddenly, there seemed to be some motion inside the office room.
Susan put down her phone and walked closer to the room.
The door was left ajar.
Susan gave a small push and it opened easily.
Then, she froze.
In the office, two figures were engaged in some inappropriate exercise.
They stopped once she opened the door.
"Sorry!" Susan said subconsciously, then she turned to leave.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
"Hey, Susie! What a coincidence!" a familiar voice said.
Susan turned around and realized that the woman was not a stranger.
"Lily?" Susan was shocked.
"You know her?" The man put on his pants and turned around.
Then, Susan realized that she knew the man too!
The man was clearly Sheldon!
Lily and Sheldon?
Susan was in disbelief.
"Darling, don't you know her? She's also one of the 50 people who were shortlisted,” Lily spoke lovingly.
Sheldon's expression turned grim.
This woman was a participant! If she spilled what she saw, the good reputation that he took so many years to build...
Sheldon suddenly regretted his choice. The night before, Lily knocked on his hotel room. She was attractive and wild on the bed, so he enjoyed it very much. Today, she came to the office saying that she wanted some exciting fun. He did not think much before saying yes.
Who would have known that someone would barge in out of nowhere!
"I won't say anything. I... I will leave first," Susan clarified in a hurry and left to escape the awkward situation.
Sheldon kept his eyes on Susan - his expression was dark and gloomy.
"Darling, what do we do now? I know this woman, she's known for being a gossiper. If she spreads what she saw, we..." Lily grabbed Sheldon’s arm with a terrified look.
"If only you didn't want to look for some nonsense excitement!" Sheldon said sternly.
"It's all my fault," Lily said pitifully. "But now that it has already happened, what do we do?"
As she spoke, Lily rubbed her large breasts against Sheldon’s body. A lewd expression flashed across his face.
Sheldon grabbed Lily and took off her panties.
After finishing the matter, Sheldon hugged Lily in his arms. His eyes flashed with malevolence.
No matter what it took, his reputation must not be at risk.
Since the woman called Susan saw what happened, h e must come up with a solution.
Lily glanced at Sheldon's sullen expression and smirked scornfully.
'Susan, let me enjoy watching you suffer this time!’
