At dawn, Suzy awoke to find the man next to her still sound asleep. His powerful arm enveloped her entirely, and his steady breath lightly teased her neck.Aching and tingling sensations surged between her legs as the last traces of drunkenness dissipated, and her rationality returned.What had she done?...She had actually slept with the CEO!Suzy's breath caught in her throat, and she carefully withdrew from his embrace, then hurriedly got out of bed, put on her clothes, packed her belongings, and rushed out of room 1501 as if her life depended on it, heading straight to the hotel reception to book another room.As she was making the payment on her phone, she suddenly realized that the one she had asked for the adult films from wasn’t Wendy, but Liam!A few years ago, during a middle school reunion, the class monitor created a group chat, encouraging everyone to add each other as friends. Suzy still remembered clearly that it was Liam who added her first. However, after accepting, he
Wendy had quite a loud voice, and when she suddenly exclaimed, all eyes, including Liam's, turned in their direction.Fortunately, Liam only glanced briefly and then averted his gaze, without saying a word. He walked away from the hotel with his long strides.After everyone had left, Wendy approached with a gossip-hungry expression."Hey? Why did Mr. Park ask that question?"This puzzled Suzy because she had initially expected something dramatic to unfold, but it ended up being this instead.Suzy, however, felt like she had been given a break and, with a dry throat, she said, "My room had a great view; perhaps he wanted to switch rooms with me.”"Is that it?""Well, he is the CEO."Wendy shrugged and acknowledged that there wouldn't be much of a connection between them due to the significant hierarchy difference between Liam and Suzy."Do you think a handsome guy like Mr. Park would be passionate in bed? With his height, I bet he's well-endowed!"Suzy chose to remain silent.
In the world of investment banking companies, the role of public relations, often dubbed the "facilitator of social engagement and cheerful demeanor," held widespread recognition.She never expected that Liam would see her in the same light. Did he believe that Desmond had also orchestrated last night's events?Liam's words hurt Suzy deeply, but with others around, she had no option but to swallow her pride and stay put for the time being.This job was crucial to her; she needed the money to cover her mother's medical expenses.Seeing the atmosphere grow cold, Desmond quickly put on a smile. "She's been my associate all along, Mr. Park. You're reading too much into it. I simply thought that since both of you are from West City, you might have some shared interests, which is why I invited her to join us. If it bothers you, I can send her back right away."After saying this, he gave a meaningful look to Suzy. She was about to leave when Liam finally spoke, "Please, take a seat."Suzy was
Moreover, that tattoo appeared to have been there for quite some time, deeply etched into the skin, unlike a recent addition.If Wendy's statement held true, then 0825 must be the birthday of someone special to him! After all, Suzy was aware of Liam's birthday; it fell in April. In contrast, the birthdays of the Park Group Chairman and his wife, who were Liam's parents, both fell in July.Of course, it had no connection to her!Her birthday was on November 14th.None of those four numbers aligned with hers. Reflecting on it, the fact that Liam, a man so reserved to his core, would engage in such a wild and somewhat immature act as getting a tattoo, suggested he must be deeply in love with someone.Suzy suddenly regretted acting impulsively the previous night. Why hadn't she thought to ask whether Liam was single? Liam might be attractive and possess impressive capabilities, but due to her strong sense of morality, she wouldn’t want to get involved with someone else's man, no mat
"Wendy, this is an extremely urgent situation! Can you please find a way to get Mr. Park's phone number?"Suzy had blocked him on WhatsApp and even left all the shared groups. Now, her only hope lay in Wendy!On the other end, it was clear that Wendy had not yet fully awakened, and her voice carried a hint of drowsiness. "Who?""Liam Park...""You must be sleepwalking. You should go back to your bed.""I don't have time to provide a detailed explanation. This is a serious matter!"The supervisor from the collaborating company had left the country immediately after signing the contract. Suzy couldn't possibly ask them to return just to sign a new contract with her!Wendy also sensed that Suzy wasn't joking. She sat up in bed and thought for a moment. “I definitely can't get you his number, but you can go to his room and find him.”Right, of course!Suzy quickly hung up the phone, threw on some clothes, and rushed to the hotel's presidential suite.However, as soon as she got o
"Mr. Park."Suzy took only a few seconds to respond, "I have a boyfriend."This kind of unbelievable stroke of luck had never happened to her in her entire life, and she couldn't bring herself to believe it now. Whether he was testing her further or genuinely needed a marriage partner for some reason, she had no interest in getting involved. So, she lied about having a boyfriend, which she believed would resolve the entire issue.Upon hearing her words, Liam pressed his thin lips together slightly, and his gaze grew more serious."Really?""Why would I lie to you, Mr. Park?"Before he could say anything, Suzy inclined slightly and said, "I won't bother you any longer, Mr. Park. Please give me the contract.""Alright."Mr. Park nodded curtly, and without further ado, he mentioned that the contract was with his secretary and then closed the door to the suite.Suzy hurriedly left with the contract, wanting to believe that the conversation just now had been a figment of her imagination.Li
Finally, pushing the matter aside, Suzy returned to her room to start packing her luggage. It was fortunate that this business trip had been uneventful, and she wasn't just referring to the incident that had upset Desmond.Suzy tried hard to suppress her thoughts, not to dwell on Liam's face. Unfortunately, her mind had a mind of its own, persisting until her phone, resting on the table, began to ring incessantly. She hurried over to answer it, and as soon as she saw the hospital's number, her heart sank. Even her hand trembled unconsciously as she pressed the answer button. "Is this Miss Chase? Your mother suffered a sudden heart attack, and her condition is critical. She has been taken to the emergency room. Please come quickly!"Suzy's mind went blank, and she almost couldn't stand on her feet. But time didn't allow her any further delay. After just a few seconds of hesitation, she immediately rushed to change her flight. Only after she had boarded did she remember to as
She thought about what Liam had said to her.He mentioned he could cover her mother's medical expenses and find the best doctor for her!Now, this was the only option!Suzy frantically started searching for the phone numbers of her middle school classmates. Fortunately, she found one and begged him to add her back to the class WhatsApp group. However, to her surprise, after she had exited the group, Liam had also departed from it!"Can anyone reach Liam now?"She immediately sent a message to the group, not caring how others would privately discuss the matter.Soon, her classmate Daniel Mills responded, "Huh? Wasn't he in the group before? I saw him in it a few days ago. Why did he leave?""What’s so strange about him leaving? He's the CEO of Park Group now, a far cry from us ordinary folks. There's nothing for him to chat about with our bunch.""Haha, look at you being all bitter!"The group members gradually drifted away from the topic, and Suzy's message was quickly buried.
