Eleanor, standing up, bent slightly towards the man's ear and whispered,
"If you get me a lychee rose every morning, I'll bring you lunch every noon. Let's see who lasts longer."
Bernard broke into a grin, his eyes bright as sunshine, lighting up the room.
"Mrs. Laurence, you're such a gem."
"I'm not that great, the first lunch was made by me, but the rest will be the chef's job."
She didn't have much time to cook, but...
"On special occasions, I'll cook for you."
Eleanor finished, picking up mouthwash and handing it to Bernard. He had a habit of cleaning his mouth after meals.
Bernard took the mouthwash and headed for the bathroom. When he came out, he saw Eleanor leaning against the bookshelf, holding a book on management.
She was standing in the sunshine, peach fuzz on her face sparkling in the light. In the sunlight, her skin was as flawless as a peeled egg, making Bernard's heart skip a beat.
His clear eyes flickered with unusual emotions. He glanced at the resting room in the office, thinking about the bed inside...
"Honey."
He walked up to Eleanor with a mischievous smile.
"We haven't done it in the office yet, want to give it a try?"
Hearing this, Eleanor quickly straightened up and moved away from him.
"Stay away!"
Although Bernard said to stay away, he still walked up to Eleanor and picked her up.
"It's lunch break, no one will disturb us."
Eleanor defiantly replied, "Yes."
Bernard nodded and climbed off the bed.
As she surveyed his smooth muscular lines, she perceived him as more than just attractive; he exuded a potent masculine allure.
This robust masculine allure triggered her hormones, leaving Eleanor's lips parched and inducing a sensation of thirst.
But to take the initiative, that was impossible. She could never express her desires in this situation, it was too embarrassing!
She pulled the blanket over her face, but also lifted a corner, secretly watching Bernard.
He was slowly getting dressed, looking like he had no intention of going any further.
Eleanor stared at his firm abs and the hair hanging down covering his handsome face.
She gritted her teeth and reached out from under the blanket, making a surrender gesture at him, "Honey, I surrender."
