Chapter 341

Sean's desire for Angeline was terrifyingly stronger than he had imagined. He yearned to kiss and touch her skin at every moment of every hour. He craved her warmth and breath incessantly. Angeline held the edge of the large desk with one hand and wrapped her other hand around Sean's neck. Although her body had begun reacting honestly to his kiss, her eyes still shook as she glanced anxiously toward the door. Angeline was afraid that someone would abruptly enter.With a hand on her face, Sean forcefully turned Angeline toward him. Forcing her to look at him, he bit down hard on her lips. "Stay focused," he said in a low tone."I'm afraid that someone will enter…" Angeline faltered uneasily.The scorching heat emitting through the fabric from Sean's sturdy legs caused Angeline to become restless. "No one can enter my office casually." Sean took off his glasses. Holding Angeline by the back of her head, he deepened their kiss. His hands tightened around her waist. Pull

"When are you meeting up with Monica?" Sean asked."At 12:30 pm. Jamie has already booked a private room at Camelia Cuisine," Angeline replied honestly. "Alright." Sean pressed a kiss at the corner of her lips. "I've made an appointment with some of my clients to play golf in the afternoon. I'll be heading back from the golf course."Just then, his phone vibrated. Picking it up from the desk, Sean looked at it impatiently. Angeline got up from his embrace. Still gasping for breath, she began to tidy her clothes and hair hastily.Angeline spoke out when Sean declined the call. "I'll head back to the office first. I'll update you about the meeting with Monica when I return." "Okay." He nodded.Sean pulled out a cigarette after watching Angeline leave. Holding it by the corner of his lips, he lit the cigarette to placate the desire that had almost consumed him. …That day, Monica didn't hesitate to agree when she received a call from Angeline to have lunch together.

Monica glanced at Angeline. The corner of her bright red lips curled up as she emitted an imposing presence. "It looks like you've done a thorough research on me."Angeline didn't deny it. Tapping her fingers lightly against the table, she said, "You decided to leave land No. 3 until the very last because you knew how important it was in the project despite its small size. "We'd both get what we want as long as you're willing to sell the land to Lawson Global."The land was significant enough that Scott Incorporated would definitely agree to share a slice of the pie with Lawson Global. They would also even agree to reinstate Monica's position in the project.After all, the capital injection was all to gain a share of the profit. Monica couldn't help but acknowledge that Angeline's way with words left her at ease. At the sight of a hint of a smile on Monica's face, Angeline held up the cup of coffee, a watch adorned on her hand. "Let's substitute wine with coffee. Cheers

"Ms. Lara, please calm down. I think that Mr. Lawson doesn't feel anything for you. Everyone knows how his personality is—he's not approachable at all. He wouldn't have put you on the spot simply because of Ms. Monica. It's more likely that he wants Lawson Global to have a slice of the cake!" Lara's assistant whispered to her.All three of the Scott daughters worked in the company and were equally important in rank. To avoid any confusion, everyone referred to them by name instead of addressing them all as "Ms. Scott"."Regardless, get in touch with Sean and figure out what Lawson Global is planning," Lara said irritatedly.Lara's assistant soon returned from her task. "I called Mr. Lawson's assistant, Mr. Powell. He says that Mr. Lawson doesn't know anything about this. So, he asked around. He called me back earlier and told me that Lawson Global's newest vice president, Ms. Lawson, signed the papers for land No. 3.""Ms. Lawson?" Lara frowned. "You mean… that adoptee, Angel

"Alright!" Jamie replied.Angeline smiled as she looked over the data on her computer screen. She wasn't familiar with Lara. So, she would observe her attitude first. Then, Angeline would decide whether to put on a show or be direct instead.The rumors said that Robert had made Angeline vice president of Lawson Group to determine if she or Sean was more worthy of being his successor. While Sean was an impressive man, Angeline was able to build Vitality Biotech Group into the company that it was presently. It was no small feat to do so in just four years.Angeline could use this rumor to her advantage during her meeting with Lara.Lara arrived sooner than Angeline thought.Lara didn't beat around the bush. "I heard you've just acquired a piece of land from a small company. Please name your price! That land is… quite important to me."Angeline feigned surprise before pulling out a document. "This piece of land, you mean?"Lara glanced at it and nodded. "Yes, that's it. Name

"Isn't discussion part of doing business? If you don't think it's fair for me to want half of the profits, Ms. Lara, we can discuss this further. It's impossible to think that we can close a deal in just a single meeting." Angeline smiled as she lifted her teacup. "I'm in no rush. You can take a look at the proposal first."Angeline may not be in a rush, but Lara was desperate. Angeline was deliberately putting on a show. Since she already promised Monica that she would bring her into the fold through the project team, she had to keep that promise. Lara would definitely turn down Angeline's proposal if this were mentioned to her.If Angeline initially set the bar high for Lara but gradually lowered them, she could still achieve her goals."As far as I know, Ms. Lara, this project needs a substantial amount of capital. Rather than have Scott Incorporated work together with multiple smaller companies, why not join hands with us, Lawson Global, instead? Our income streams guarant

Lara's father tapped the desk. "Have you discussed this internally? What did they say?""Yes." Lara smiled. "Upper management also agreed that working with Lawson Global will be better than working with a few other smaller companies. That way, we'd be guaranteed steady funding. Although we'll need to let them have a share of our profits, they'll also be sharing the risk. Lawson Global's contribution will greatly aid this project.""Alright!" Lara's father nodded. "You have complete say over this project. You make the final call!""Then, I shall get someone to draft the agreement." Lara got up. At the sight of her father frowning in hesitation, she spoke again. "Don't worry, I won't let you down.""Just do what you have to do."Lara felt a lot lighter after she left her father's office. She then ordered her assistant to start writing the agreement for Lawson Global."I need it immediately!" Lara pointed out. "I don't need another wrench in my plans.""So, how much

Angeline's heartbeat quickened as the garage door rolled down."What's wrong?"Sean's lips curved into a smile as he leaned in closer to her. He reached out to tuck her hair behind her ears as he asked in a low voice, "When I asked you where you were going for lunch, I was asking you if you were going to eat nearby your office or if you were going to eat at home. What else could I have been asking?"Angeline's face burst into flames as her breathing grew chaotic. She had to admit that her mind was in the gutter when Sean asked her earlier this afternoon. She had misunderstood him entirely then.When he saw Angeline's flushed face, he instantly understood her thoughts. So, he reached out to pull her in for a kiss.Robert had been standing outside with his cane in hand. He watched in shock as Sean kissed his granddaughter.Asher's eyes widened with shock as well. Reflexively, he reached over to support Robert's weight. "Sir."At the sound of Asher's voice, Sean turned his head

But this time, Angeline wanted to be brave for Sean. Although she wasn't mentally prepared and she hadn't figured out what to say to Robert, she couldn't keep cowering behind Sean. She didn't want Sean to be jealous of her past relationship with Ned. She was also capable of giving her all for Sean.Sean was taken aback. He knew Angeline very well. He had wondered if she would agree to Robert's demand for them to break up if Robert brought this up. This was because she treasured the Lawsons and Lawson Global. Sean had even been prepared to tell Robert that he was the one who forced Angeline into this relationship.Sean felt an uncharacteristic prickle behind his eyes as he gazed at her. "You're willing to stand up against Mr. Lawson Senior, just for me?"Angeline's nervousness flared up as Sean looked at her. He stared at her as though he was trying to bore a hole through her. She gripped Sean's hand hard as she nodded. "Let's go!"Sean couldn't stop himself from pulling Angel

"Mr. Lawson Senior, perhaps you should first hear what they have to say!" Asher requested on Sean and Angeline's behalf."Let me ask you this..." Robert looked at Sean. "Is Angie one of the reasons you want to leave the Lawsons and Lawson Global? Apart from the reasons you gave me last time?""Yes." Sean didn't hesitate.Robert gripped his cane as he laughed. "Wonderful, you two… Such a good stepson you are, and what a good granddaughter I have!"Angeline paled when she saw Robert stumble backward with a hand to his chest. She and Asher immediately dashed over to hold him up. "Granddad—"Robert shook her hold off."Please, Mr. Lawson Senior, take a seat while I fetch your medicine." Asher helped Robert into a chair before rushing upstairs to retrieve his medicine.Robert's hand remained on his chest as he glared unblinkingly at Angeline before glaring at Sean. "When did this start? How long have you been hiding this behind my back?""About four or five years…""S
