What he said made Erin let out a cold chuckle. "Chandler, won't my presence here annoy you?" Hearing her mockery, Chandler got up and walked to her back. Bending over with his hands propped on both sides of her, he brought his face close to her neck and smiled. "It's none of your concern." As she heard his magnetic voice, his breath fell on her neck, and Erin shuddered and dared not to move lest they would touch. "Erin, aren't you supposed to thank me for allowing you to work so near to me?" His lips drew near her neck… Unable to stand his seductive voice, she felt her whole scalp tingling. She tried to get up, but Chandler pressed her back to her seat. He nibbled her reddened earlobe, and Erin bit her lower lip to stop herself from making a sound.Chandler gripped her neck and warned coldly, "Don't be ungrateful. Not any woman could bask in the glory of becoming my assistant trainee, okay?""I don't fucking care about it!" Erin snarled. His grip tightened as he narrowed h
At that moment, Erin was the only person left in the office. As Chandler never said he needed her to translate the agreement urgently, she wanted to leave as well. "I'm not going to work overtime for someone like him!" she thought. She took her purse and wanted to go meet her coworkers.Milly and Ella had sent her text messages, saying they had something important to tell her.When Erin was about to leave, she received a call from an unknown number. "Erin, you're so busy, huh? I sent you a few messages, but you never replied. Don't tell me your account got hacked?"Surprised that the caller was Sean, she asked, "How come you have my number?" Playing poker at his friend's private club, he had a cigarette in his mouth. "It's easy to get a phone number, okay?""Have you received the jacket that I sent back?""Yes, but it seems to be torn…"Erin frowned. "That's impossible! Even if it was torn, I had nothing to do with it. You should ask the courier company to compensate you."
Ella lost her smile hearing what Milly said. She bolted to her feet and asked, "What the hell do you mean, Milly? Are you trying to set me against my husband? I told you a long time ago that he has no cousins. Are you trying to suggest that he's having an affair?"Milly didn't expect Ella to be so agitated and grew angry as well. "Ella, don't vent your anger on me! You know what kind of a person your husband is!" She took her purse and headed out, then suddenly turned around and said, "Next time, mind your own goddamn business and tell your husband to behave, okay? To tell you the truth, your husband bought the roses for me, but I turned him down because I'm not interested in losers!"Milly threw the door open and stormed out, leaving Ella, who was choked with anger, behind.The woman slammed her hand on the table and shouted, "Does she think she's fucking gorgeous just because she has had work done? And who would fucking believe nothing is going on between her and Mr. Jones? Wh
Erin retorted, "When had I ever made you apologize?"During that time, it was Ian who kept cheekily apologizing to her.Holding her hand with both of his, Ian said in an appeasing tone, "Okay, okay, you didn't make me. Happy?" She withdrew her hand in disgust, and a hint of sadness appeared in her eyes. "Don't bring up the past anymore…"Staring at her withdrawn hand, Ian felt upset. He wasn't ready to lose her. He said solemnly, "Tracy left an hour ago." Hearing that name, Erin angrily bolted to her feet, but Ian grabbed her arm and said irritably, "Can't you listen to me first?" Erin struggled in vain to pull her arm off, then turned halfway to him and snapped, "We've already divorced! There's nothing to talk about. Take your hand off me!"Seeing her stubborn look, Ian was pleased instead. He took this as a sign that she was jealous. He yanked her back, and Erin lost her balance and fell onto his lap. He then hugged her tight to prevent her from escaping. "Let me go!" Eri
Stunned, Erin quickly smelled her dress. Other than cigarette smoke, there was the scent of Ian's cologne. She gave Chandler a look and explained, "I went to look for my friend at a nightclub and bumped into my ex-husband."She couldn't see Chandler's face as he stood in the shadow, but she felt his anger. Worrying that he didn't believe her, Erin added, "I'll never marry him again! Since I've promised to become your lover for three months, I won't look for other men within the period. Can you not suspect me so easily?" Sensing indignation in her tone, Chandler narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "I'm not suspecting you, so don't be so nervous. I know you don't dare to betray me because…you can't afford to bear the consequences." Chandler strolled to the door and said, twisting the doorknob, "Come to my room after you take your shower."After he left, Erin weakly caught her breath. She thought he was going to choke her again. She lay on the floor for a while, then got up and showe
Stunned by what Chandler said, Alan drove off without a word. The next day when Erin woke up, she sat bolt upright when she saw her surroundings. She looked at Chandler, sitting in front of her, and asked, "Why are we on a plane? Where are we going?" Writing an email, Chandler looked up at her. "Grecia." "Why are we going to Grecia?" Feeling like she was in a dream, she looked at the blanket on her and glanced around at what seemed to be a private jet. "For vacation."Erin found his simple answer hard to accept. "What about my job? I didn't even tell my parents that I'd be going overseas. What if they went to look for me?"Chandler shut his laptop and said, "I knew you would worry too much, so I gave you a sedative shot."Erin was shocked. "No wonder I wasn't even aware that I boarded a goddamn plane!" she thought. "If we're going on vacation, you could have told me. There's no need to give me a sedative shot—"Seeing she was about to blabber on, Chandler interrupted,
Seeing Erin's innocent face, Chandler looked away and said, "What a greedy woman!" During the meal, Erin focused on eating and didn't let him spoil her appetite. He got a flight attendant to bring some top-quality red wine, and she left after pouring them each a glass.Seeing the flight attendant leave, Erin suddenly asked, "Chandler, what do you usually like the most? And what do you hate the most?" He leisurely sliced the top-grade, medium-rare steak, and blood oozed out. Erin felt a little nauseous seeing it as she only ate her meat well done. Chandler put a piece of steak into his mouth and chewed it slowly before swallowing. "Why do you ask? Trying to please me?"Erin chuckled awkwardly. "I'm going to stick around you for three months, so I guess I should know more about you…" "I hate a lot of things, and there aren't many things I like." Erin was speechless as he had basically told her nothing. As he wasn't ready to respond to her, she decided to give up. After
Two hours later, Erin sat on the deck of the yacht, dangling her legs outside while holding an ice cream. She looked at Chandler, who was not far away, and thought, "Damn, he sure has a great body…"Erin remembered a psychologist once said that people with great bodies were usually very self-disciplined and had excellent self-control. "I guess Chandler is someone who has remarkable self-restraint!" she thought."Erin, come help me reel in the fish."With his back to her, Chandler was slowly reeling in the fish with his fishing rod. Hearing that he had caught a fish, she felt a surge of admiration for him and hastily got up to go over. When she saw the lively fish jumping out of the water, she exclaimed in amazement, "I didn't know you're so good at fishing!"Chandler glanced at her and said casually, "I'm good at many things." He saw her staring at the sardine and said discontentedly, "Give me your ice cream. Take the fish off the hook and put it into the bucket." Erin look
