All Chapters of In The Heart Of Cedric’s Affection: Chapter 521 - Chapter 530

"This is from Mr. Carlson," said Evander as he placed the item on the table.Sophie looked at the item, her face full of surprise. "Coke?""Yes." Evander nodded, feeling equally baffled. On his way over, he kept wondering if he was becoming a worse assistant or if Cedric's intentions were just getting harder to decipher. Practicing claw machine skills behind closed blinds was one thing, but delivering Coke instead of jewelry or clothes? That was a new one.While still pondering, Evander's confused gaze met Linda’s, and his cheeks flushed. Quickly turning back to Sophie, he said, "If there's nothing else, I'll head back."Watching him leave in a hurry, Linda suppressed the chaos in her heart from their brief eye contact. "Ms. Luxford, what do you think Mr. Carlson means by sending you Coke?""How would I know?" Sophie replied casually, examining the Coke bottle.After scrutinizing it for a while without finding anything unusual, she turned to the glass window opposite her office

The weather shifted from sweltering heat to a cooler breeze, but the top floor of Luxford Group building was heating up. Besides the daily delivery of roses, Sophie's desk was piling up with various exquisite gifts."Looks like I missed a lot of drama while I was on my second honeymoon. The air here is thick with the sourness of love. It's overwhelming," Jeanna remarked as she returned to work, immediately sensing the different atmosphere.She had been worried about Sophie being bullied by Cedric, but it seemed the two were getting along just as her husband Sean had predicted."You missed the Coke incident," Linda said, covering her mouth as she laughed.She only understood the significance of the Coke bottle after seeing it on Sophie's desk. Who would have thought Cedric would come up with such a quirky gesture?"And the blue rose incident," Sophie added, not willing to be outdone, making Linda blush instantly.Jeanna was confused, clutching Sophie's arm with a gossip-hungry exp

Thinking this way, Linda retracted her gaze and walked towards her car. She had barely taken a step when the car horn sounded again.She paused, frowning at the car before reluctantly walking over. No one got out, so she politely knocked on the tinted window. "Hello, were you calling me?"The window, covered with a deep tint, finally rolled down slowly. Fenix looked at her professional smile with a flash of satisfaction in his eyes.Recognizing Fenix, Linda showed a hint of surprise but quickly masked it. "Mr. Cheshire, what are you doing here? Are you looking for Ms. Luxford?"Fenix, the heir of the Cheshire family, was someone she knew well, especially as the chief secretary of Luxford Group. Considering the limited business between Cheshire Group and Luxford Group, his presence was puzzling."I'm not here to see Sophie. I'm here for you.""Me?""Yes, you. If you have a moment, could we talk in the car? I won't take much of your time. Fenix spoke with an air of certainty, open

Linda didn’t know how she managed to get out of Fenix’s car. It wasn’t until her phone rang that she snapped back to reality. Seeing the caller ID, she hurriedly answered and heard the anxious voice of Modern Aer's secretary on the other end."Linda, it’s already past 3:30. Why aren’t you here yet?""Sorry, I’m stuck in traffic. I’ll be there soon," she lied, quickly hanging up and driving toward Modern Aer.-Sophie was reviewing the financial reports sent by the finance department, her furrowed brows clearly showing her dissatisfaction with some of the figures."Linda, please ask Ms. Yara from finance to come up." After a few seconds of silence, she looked up, puzzled, only to see Linda lost in thought. "Linda?""Huh?" Upon hearing her name, Linda’s eyes finally focused, and a flash of embarrassment crossed her face. "Sorry, I was distracted.""What’s on your mind? You’ve been out of it for the past two days. Did something happen?"Sophie wasn't reprimanding her—she was genui

Sophie's suspicion was right. Fenix was not one to easily abandon his target. After Linda ignored countless calls, he took the initiative to find her."Mr. Cheshire, Linda really isn't in the office right now," the secretary tried to block him, but it was futile against a determined man, especially one exuding an intimidating chill."Then I’ll find Sophie.""But Ms. Luxford, she—" Before the secretary could finish, Fenix's long legs had already taken him to Sophie's office door.He knocked twice before pushing it open. The secretary looked like she was about to cry. "Ms. Luxford, I’m sorry, I couldn’t stop Mr. Cheshire.""It’s fine. Go make Mr. Cheshire a cup of coffee," Sophie said.Seeing Fenix barge in, she raised an eyebrow, smiled, and glanced at Linda, who was hiding in her office. "Have a seat and let's talk.""No need. I have to catch a flight soon." Fenix cut straight to the point, his determined eyes fixed on Linda as he said firmly, "I need an answer from you.""Mr.
