William Sandler was being reprimanded by someone. That man threw a file on the desk and said vehemently to William, “This is the report you prepared! You can’t even do such a simple thing! The company is not paying you a high salary to do nothing!” Cecelia Shayne could not bear to listen anymore. Her head erupted with rage, she rushed forward without thinking and shielded William behind her, like a mother hen guarding her chick, and shouted, “I’m the one sitting around doing nothing, not h
Cecelia was just spouting nonsense. Even the lucky person would not enjoy such a privilege. She was just trying to scare that horrible man. He would not be so free to investigate the truth of what she said, right? Regardless, she would first scare him if she could. Just when Cecelia was full of herself, William spoke, and he directed his words at Philip, “President, she’s just kidding.” “Who’s kidding, I’m not kidding. I—” Cecelia suddenly realized that something was not right. She stare
Cecelia Shayne tousled her hair and pulled on her clothes. Right before William Sandler and Philip Keaton could figure out what was going to happen, she hugged Philip Keaton abruptly.William Sandler, “...”Philip Keaton, “...”Seeing the dumbfounded expression on William's face, Cecelia yelled, “Pretty boy, what are you doing just standing there? Can’t you see that the president is trying to have his ways with me? Hurry up and take a picture!” William Sandler, “...”Philip Keaton, “...”
The feeling of anxiety followed for three to four days, but as nothing happened, Cecelia found herself a little relieved.Only as she finally relaxed did Cecelia realize that something was off about William.At that moment, she attempted to share some of her lunch with him.“Pretty boy, the braised pork today is really delicious. Try some.”With the pork sandwiched between her chopsticks, Cecelia raised it to William's mouth habitually.Although both she and William Sandler ate takeaway the
If you want a man to be in a good mood, all you have to do is satisfy him… Grace Turner’s words played repeatedly in Cecelia’s head. However, no matter how hard she thought about it, Cecelia still could not recall what exactly she had done to warrant such behavior from William. She stole a glance at the man reading a magazine on the sofa. His expression somehow seemed albeit more disgruntled than it was at the office. Could his moodiness really be because he was dissatisfied? Ceceli
Grace said he was dissatisfied, and he left the house right after he took a suspicious phone call… Could he have gone to see an ex-lover? “No way!” The mere idea of William potentially meeting up with a previous lover brought Cecelia to a half-blown mental breakdown. She ran into the bedroom and changed in record speed, leaving the house swiftly. There was no way in hell she was just going to let him meet up with an old flame! If nothing else, she would not tolerate him cheating on her
William appeared just in time to catch Cecelia as she fell. The stranger’s expression shifted abruptly when he saw William, desperately trying to conceal the fear in his eyes but to no avail. “Brother…” William glared coldly at this ‘brother’. “Cyrus Sandler. Do not challenge my limits!” Cyrus was his stepbrother, the very man who saved Cecelia before. They had a complicated relationship, Cyrus and William, and the latter would do anything if it meant Cecelia would be safe from being
Though Zachary’s sentence was left unfinished, William had already gotten the gist of it. Yet… In his arms, Cecelia’s looked more nauseated by the minute, her skin paled with sickliness and discomfort. William contemplated as he watched her with a complicated look in his eyes. Unbeknownst to the thoughts in William’s head, Zachary teased, “Don’t tell me nothing’d gone between both of you yet, William. And here I thought that this tree of yours finally popped its cherries.” The fact that Wi
