Chapter 165

After hanging up the phone, Leah’s mood suddenly lifted.

She turned and walked into the bathroom, filled the tub with water, and then soaked herself in it.

Looking at her delicate figure and fine skin, she couldn’t help but smile.

Right now, Emmell just hadn’t experienced her charm yet, so that’s why he’s so aloof towards her…

once he does…

She swore he wouldn’t have eyes for any other woman!

“Emmett, you’re mine! Stop wasting your time on other women…”

After a whole day of hustle and bustle, Clara didn’t have time to draw the new design.

Before leaving work, she quickly closed the door to her secretary office and started sketching When it comes to the design, she’s like a crazed fanatic.

When she didn’t have time, she even thought about taking the design to the bathroom to draw!

Just as she started, Emmett’s voice came from outside.

“You should clock out now, I’m taking you out to a nice place!”

Clara hesitated for a moment, got up and opened the door.

“Emmett, can I not go? You’re busy, don’t worry about me! I’m not hungry right now”

“Really? You’re my wife, who else am I supposed to care for?” Emmett pulled her into his arms.

Clara quickly backed away, pulling him in and shutting the door.

“We’re still at work! People will talk if they see us!”

“Then tell me who’s been talking?” Emmett frowned, “If there’s someone like that in our company, I won’t let them get away with it!”

Clara rolled her eyes, “You can shut their mouths, but you can’t control their minds! If you fire people over this, they’ll only believe these rumors even more!”

“Clara, we are married, that’s a fact. Why should we be afraid of those rumors?”

“But I don’t want to make this public! People have already seen us together, and Ricardo’s words bothered me! Please, don’t… don’t do this at work…”

Emmett paused for a moment, then burst out laughing!

Looking at her flushed cheeks, Emmett felt too embarrassed to persist..

“Emmett, are you even listening to me?!”

“I heard you!” Emmett laughed. “So basically, you want to hide the truth, keep me a secret! Clara, you’re the first one who’s ever wanted to do this to me! Male or female, you’re the first.”

“…I’m not trying to belittle you, I just-”

“As the CEO, I have no intention of hiding this, but you, as my secretary, have a lot of concerns.”

Emmett feigned helplessness and sighed, “It seems you don’t care about me at all! Otherwise, why would you say such heart–wrenching things? Do you have some other plan?”

Clara immediately shook her head, “Absolutely not! I’ve always been honest and straightforward, with no ulterior motives!”
