Wendy’s heart was pounding so hard that it felt like it might explode, and her mind raced with wild thoughts… <i>The </i><i>boss </i><i>looks </i><i>strong</i>. <i>He’s </i><i>probably </i>amazing <i>in </i><i>bed </i><i>too</i><i>! </i>
Are we gonna <i>do </i>it in <i>the </i><i>office</i><i>? </i><fnf4e3> Content originallyes from fι?dnοvel</fnf4e3>
But <i>the </i><i>door </i><i>isn’t </i><i>locked</i>.
Lost in these reckless thoughts, her feet moved on their own toward the inner side of the desk.
The man’s rxed posture was dangerously close, and Wendy’s breathing hitched. After a single hesitant second, she impulsively swung around and sat on Ethan’sp.
“Oh sorry, Mr. Jackson. Didn’t mean to bump into you.”
…
Her words sounded like an apology, but her face showed nothing—just a pink flush and eyes sparkling with bold seduction.
Ethan didn’t move. His expression stayed calm, his eyes fixed on her in hisp. “Didn’t mean to?”
“Yeah, I didn’t mean to.” Wendy boldly let her hand trace circles across his chest. “Since you didn’t push me away, I guess you don’t mind, right?”
In an instant, Ethan’s expression changed.
His cold eyes pierced right through her.
“Get off!”
Two t, emotionless words froze Wendy’s body.
But Ethan didn’t give her a chance to react. He lifted a hand, grabbed her neck, and hoisted her up with controlled force. His voice was ice–cold. “Where did you get the confidence to think I wouldn’t hold you responsible, hm?”
“Cough, cough… M–Mr. Jackson … ”
Wendy’s face burned red, words failing her.
She wed at his hand, struggling to get free.
But the obvious size difference made escape impossible. Wendy could only endure the tight

grip around her neck, gasping for air.
Only when her face started turning from pale to blue did Ethan finally let <i>go</i>.
Wendy copsed to the floor like a rag, coughing violently.

Her earlier wild thoughts vanishedpletely, tears streaming down her cheeks as her trembling voice shook with fear. “M–Mr. Jackson … I don’t understand!”
Ethan pulled a tissue from the desk, wiping his hands slowly, deliberately, as if brushing off something dirty.
“Don’t understand? Then use that brain of yours.
“I’m curious. How did a fool like you even get into thispany?
“Was it by using tricks like these?”
Ethan gave her a sharp nce, studying her closely. “Even if Linda really liked women, I never thought her taste would be this terrible.”
Wendy had never heard a man speak with such venom.
Cold sweat broke out on her back, and it took a long moment to lift her reddened eyes. “Mr. Jackson, c–could you please tell me what I did wrong?”
“Heh.”
Ethan tossed the tissue aside, his ck eyes like bottomless pits.
Though he smiled, the sharp line of his face sent shivers down her spine.
He stepped closer, and Wendy instinctively recoiled, trapped against the edge of the desk with nowhere left to go<i>. </i>
“If you really can’t figure it out, I’ll kindly tell you.”
Ethan loomed above her, his deep voice slicing like a knife. “All day long, you don’t focus on your work. Instead, you’re scheming against your colleagues, stealing their designs–did you really think nobody would notice?”
Wendy opened her mouth but could not say a word.
How <i>could </i><i>he </i>know?

Ethan watched her shifting expression. The mocking glint in his eyes deepened. He didn’t exin further, coldly stating, “You didn’t stop at one or two offences–you had to go all the way.”
His cool fingers pinched Wendy’s chin, pressing gradually. “You were supposed to negotiate a deal, but you dragged Dawn into it. How dare you, hm?”
Caught in his icy gaze, Wendy forgot to breathe.
She even ignored the sharp pain in her chin.
Dawn…
<i>Ever </i><i>since </i><i>earlier</i><i>, </i><i>he’s </i><i>mentioned her </i><i>several </i><i>times</i>.
<i>So </i><i>all </i><i>of </i><i>this</i><i>, </i><i>his </i><i>anger</i><i>, </i><i>is </i><i>because </i><i>of </i><i>that </i><i>bitch</i><i>, </i><i>Dawn</i>!
Wendy’s eyes shot up, her face twisting in pain, but she gritted her teeth. “W–what is your rtionship with Dawn?”
Ethan paused for a moment, then let go of her face and strode over to sit in the office chair. “That’s none of your business. You have one day to return Dawn’s designs and apologize to her for yesterday.”
