Chapter 241 Don’t Tempt Me

She thought, “If I honestly say that Chandler is my husband and he was the one who set off the fireworks on the beach, wouldn’t that ruin the image he has always maintained? After all, Chandler has always been serious and didn’t seem like someone who would do such things.”

At that moment, Lisha walked out of Chandler’s office holding a stack of documents.

“Alright, it’s work time now, don’t discuss gossip. Be careful not to get your bonuses deducted.”

Upon hearing this, Freya and Medea immediately dispersed.

Lisha glanced at Josh. “Mr. Carter, manage your team members properly. The president’s office has always been low-key. We shouldn’t let some attention-seeking people ruin the atmosphere here.”

Josh frowned, knowing Lisha was indirectly pointing at someone, and her target was quite clear.

After giving Meryl a look, Josh said, “Is this attention-seeking? To my knowledge, everyone enjoyed the fireworks that night. How can it be called attention-seeking?”

Lisha laughed. “But I heard that Meryl was with Mr. Aniston at that time. Mr. Aniston is married, and she keeps clinging to him. I shouldn’t have to spell out what she wants to do.”

Lisha’s words were not without foundation. Someone had taken photos of Meryl and Chandler together that night and sent them to Lisha’s phone. She concluded that Meryl was wavering, trying to entice a wealthy man to confess to her while also being entangled with the married Chandler.

Meryl felt a bit speechless, thinking, “So I became the mistress?”

She hadn’t publicly acknowledged her relationship with Chandler mainly because she was worried that her colleagues would develop biases against her, making work difficult, but she didn’t expect such a misunderstanding to arise.

Just then, Chandler and Walter walked out of the office.

Seeing them, the group that had been chatting animatedly fell silent for a few seconds.

Walter carried a laptop and a briefcase, preparing to accompany Chandler to a business meeting.

No one dared to gossip in front of Chandler, and Lisha was no exception.

When Meryl saw Chandler, she glanced nervously and surprisingly at his neck.

Chandler had been fervent to the point of losing control the night before, and in an intimate moment, he had asked her to bite him.

Meryl had refused, but Chandler had found ways to tease her. She was pushed to the edge of what she could handle. While he was buried in her body, she pulled at his hair and bit down on his Adam’s apple.

The mark was very obvious, and even though Chandler wore a turtleneck shirt that day, half of the mark was still visible.

Seemingly sensing Meryl’s gaze, Chandler turned his head and looked deeply at her.

Others lowered their heads awkwardly, not daring to look at Chandler, and naturally did not notice the connection between his and Meryl’s gazes in the air.

Chandler’s eyes held a teasing glimmer as he looked at Meryl. Meanwhile, Meryl’s phone vibrated.

Chandler: [Mrs. Aniston, if you feel unfulfilled, you can just tell me. You don’t need to use such a direct gaze to tempt me. I’m afraid I might not be able to resist.]

Meryl felt both helpless and amused.
