Chapter 85: I don’t mind you screaming

She knew that if that man fell into their boss’s hand... then the consequences...

She sighed in pity. He was their close friend too and she did not want him to suffer.

’’You have something to say?" Ryle tilted his head to look at the woman lazily.

The woman’s heart skipped a beat, ’’Boss..’’

’’Spill.’’

She hesitated for a moment before she opened her mouth, ’’He had indeed broken the rules by falling in love with a client but at the end of the day, falling in love is not a crime. Will... Will you spare him?" She was almost begging him by now.

Ryle raised an eyebrow, ’’As long as you offer your head in his place,’’ As he watched her face paling, his usual easygoing and warm smile returned to its place as he said, ’’Then I will let him live his happily ever after fairytale love while you shower your blessings on him from heaven. How is that?"

The driver choked. He almost lost control over the steering wheel but he did not aspire to shower blessings from heaven so he regained his composure quickly.

The secretary on the other hand felt uncomfortable all over. This man... She had been working for him for over a year now after her predecessor ran away. Nobody knew why the person before her had left such a high-paying job and she had wondered it too. But it was understandable now.

She had stayed in the shadows wherever he want.

A playboy, a charming playful man, a funny friend who whined frequently, looked like an angel, talked like an angel... people saw those sides of him. But they did not see the person who lay beneath that exterior.

’’I want their whereabouts. In 15 minutes,’’ Ryle calmly said.

The woman was stumped for words. 15 minutes were too less to track someone’s whereabouts. She wanted to say that but in the end, she took out her laptop and started working on it.

Ryle glanced at her quietly for a moment before he averted his gaze.

It was against the protocol to fall in love with the client. His trusted subordinate already did that. But what’s more, he didn’t just break the protocol, he even had the audacity to elope with that said client instead coming clean to him.

And this was the third time he was tracking their whereabouts since he left Maxim’s place and flew here.

Even he did not like to give so much crap to his best friend, so there was no way he was going to take it from some random person out there.

Thirty minutes later, his secretary turned the laptop towards him.

’’Regalia,’’ Ryle read the word written on it.

’’It’s a motel.’’

’’Drive.’’

The driver took his hint and changed the direction of the car from the city center to their new destination.

Ryle propped his forehead on his fist as he turned to look out of the glass panes.

His lazy eyes caught a faint glimpse of blonde on the road.

His eyes immediately zoomed in on the person on the other side of the road.

The casual look in his eyes was gone as he straightened up in his seat when the car drove past that person, ’’Turn the car...’’

’’A-Ah? Boss?" The driver was stupefied.

Ryle glared at him.

The driver shivered. Just as he started taking a U-turn, the man spoke up again.

’’Drop it. Keep driving,’’ Ryle said as he leaned back on the seat, calmly propping his chin on his fist this time.

The driver almost choked a mouthful of blood. Boss... I am still single. I want to have kids and a sweet wife before I die. Can you not do this to me? He mentally looked at the sky and prayed to the heavens to send him a lady boss so that he can have some peace...

Unaware of the driver’s thoughts, Ryle was thinking about different things as he glanced at the road. It could not be that arrogant lad. The person he saw just now did hold some resemblances to that person but that guy would never go around wearing a girl’s outfit, let alone a maid’s.

It was probably just a coincidence.

Hmm. The more he thought about it, the more he was convinced that it was just a coincidence.

...

"Umm... My Michelin star chef’s exclusive chocolate pastry, come here. Scoot closer to my mouth...’’

As the pastry swayed its hips and ran away from her, Diana dragged it by its tail. Her tongue peeked out as she gave it a few gentle licks before she opened her mouth and took a bite.

’Hiss’

Hmm? Just like tree spirits, are there pastry spirits too?

And it just hissed when she bit it. Was it a painful kind of hiss or a shy hiss?

To clarify her doubts, Diana brought the pastry closer to her mouth to take another bite.

This time, it was a suppressed groan.

The haziness in her head disappeared and her eyes slowly opened.

The sight of a sexy adam’s apple greeted her view and her eyes lowered to an expanse of skin that had some suspicious red biting marks.

Hmm, the size of the teeth...

Suddenly, she stiffened and sat straight.

Her eyes met with a pair of eyes that looked at her nonchalantly.

Maxim raised his hand and touched the spots on his neck where he was treated like a Michelin star chef’s chocolate pastry.

Despite the raging emotions in his head, he looked at her with an unfazed gaze.

The woman looked at him for a few seconds blankly.

Then, she blinked.

Once.

Twice.

Thrice.

’’Ahhhhh!" she pressed her palms to her ears and screamed at top of her lungs.

Maxim covered one of Angel’s ears but the girl still stirred from her slumber. She rubbed her face on his shoulder and started moving around.

Left with no other choice, he moved his palm from Angel’s ear and slammed it over Diana’s mouth, muffling her screams. His movements were firm enough to make her gasp but gentle enough to not hurt her.

’’I don’t mind you screaming,’’ his eyes darkened, ’’But not like this.’

Diana stopped screaming, stunned, ’’W-What?" she spoke against his palm.

As he felt her lips rubbing on his skin, he retracted his hand without a moment’s delay, ’’You are disturbing her sleep,’’ he told her.
