"No way!"
Kisa blurted out, trying to stand up and escape.But Gilbert pulled her back in an instant, even positioning her provocatively on his lap.
This pose might have been fine at home, but at the office, it felt incredibly awkward.
If someone walked in, she would be mortified.
Squirming to get up, she pleaded.
"Gilbert, quit it! I want to go home."
"I just need your help."
Kisa hesitated, momentarily forgetting her attempts to break free.
"Help with what?"
"I have loads of documents that need organizing. Help me out, and then we'll head home together."
Kisa's brow furrowed instinctively.
"Why not let your Miss Mitchell assist you?" Gilbert's face darkened.
Feigning annoyance, he flicked her forehead.
"I don't like her hanging around."
"If you don't want her here, then why did you hire her as your secretary? Watch out; she might try to no.velebook uncover your company's secrets." Kisa deliberately shared this concern, hoping he would remain cautious. He scoffed disdainfully.
"She's not that capable."
His eyes locked on hers, filled with intensity.
"Only you can effortlessly penetrate those secrets in this world."
GK's confidential information would not have been so easily accessible without his approval.Kisa stayed silent.
Assuming she was set on leaving, Gilbert offered a warm smile.
"If you are exhausted and really want to leave, go ahead. Be careful on your way."
Kisa rose from his embrace. She hesitated by the coffee table for a moment, watching him return to his desk and resume working.
Lips pressed together, she asked, "Where are those documents?"
Gilbert's expression instantly brightened, and he tenderly beckoned her.
"Come here."
Meanwhile, outside the CEO's office, Sara marched confidently toward the door, gripping a stack of documents.
Feeling entirely at ease, she reached out to push the door open.
However, before her hand could touch the handle, a junior assistant blocked her path.
Normally, the junior assistant would not have the nerve to stand in Sara's way.
But today, Gilbert's actions had made it abundantly clear that his heart belonged to his wife, leaving Sara out in the cold.
Consequently, Kisa was someone she absolutely could not risk crossing.
Sara's face instantly turned stormy, her usual gentle and poised demeanor was replaced by seething anger.
"What do you mean?"
"Miss Mitchell, Mrs. Kooper is currently inside with Mr.Kooper, and he specifically instructed that no one should disturb them.So...
"I'm just delivering crucial documents.If I cause any delays, who will be held accountable?"
Sara bit back, rage simmering beneath the surface.
The junior assistant replied, "In that case, hand the documents to me.I will notify Mr.Kooper later and see if he wants them brought in."
"You?"
Sara's eyes filled with blatant disdain.
The assistant's smile faltered but she held her ground, her dislike for Sara growing by the second. She maintained a professional tone, saying, "Mr.Kooper made it crystal clear that no one should disturb them this afternoon - not even Mr.Park. So, either leave the documents here, or wait for Mr.Kooper to emerge and I will inform you."
Sara trembled with fury, her pride wounded. Her eyes narrowed maliciously as she said icily, "Notify him now that I have essential documents to deliver."
The junior assistant chuckled, spinning around to dial the CEO's office phone.
"Mr.Kooper, Miss Mitchell has vital documents to deliver. Should I let her in?"
There was a pause.
"Alright, got it."
Hanging up, the assistant's expression was one of triumph.
"Mr.Kooper said to leave the documents with me, and that he will come out to collect them later."
Sara inhaled sharply, seething with indignation. It was at this very moment that Davian approached.
