After hanging up the phone, Charlotte Thompson thought of looking up the fashion shows previously organized by Melissa Tanner, just a quick look, and she discovered that they had only put on a fashion show once in two years.
And... that one show had included quite a few bizarre items in its collection.
Charlotte looked at it, and this probably was what their person in charge referred to as the fusion of ancient styles and popular trends.
It seemed that Miss Ward indeed didn’t have a thorough understanding of current trends.
So, Charlotte, after comparing and researching, finally found several suitable elements.
By the time she finished these tasks, it was already time to leave work.
Charlotte tidied up her desk and thought that this was the perfect time to pick up the little ones from the kindergarten.
Thinking thus, Charlotte went to Justin Battleson’s office, and when she entered, she found Justin still dealing with some business matters.
Justin looked up and saw Charlotte enter; he stood up and took her hand, pulling her over.
Charlotte glanced at the thick stack of documents on Justin’s desk, her expression filled with worry, "Do you still have a lot of work to deal with?"
"Not much, just that recently we’ve had a few new partners, requiring a lot of negotiations," Justin shook his head, obviously not wanting Charlotte to worry.
"You’ve worked hard."
Charlotte pressed down on Justin’s shoulders, making him sit back down, and then reached out to rub his temples.
Justin’s body leaned back slightly, and he hooked Charlotte’s wrist, easily pulling her into his embrace with a bit of strength.
"Since you think I’ve worked hard, maybe Charlotte should reward me a bit?" Justin asked while embracing Charlotte’s waist.
Cool fingertips traced Justin’s brow, finally resting at the corner of his eyes. Charlotte, looking into his smiling eyes, leaned down and planted a kiss on his lips.
It was as brief as a dragonfly skimming water, yet it made Justin itch for more.
Seeing that Charlotte was about to leave, Justin pinched her chin directly.
"That’s not enough of a reward."
With that, Justin kissed Charlotte again. He held her waist with one hand, and slid the other from her chin to the back of her neck in a possessive gesture, not giving Charlotte any chance to escape.
After the kiss, Justin finally released the panting woman.
Charlotte’s cheeks were flushed, and she leaned on Justin’s shoulder, feeling as if her heart was thumping like a little rabbit on the loose.
"Thank you for the reward, Charlotte," chuckled Justin. Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by N0v3l.Fiɾe.net
Charlotte bit her lower lip, looking up at Justin, "You!"
She paused, then muttered softly,
"Always bullying me..."
"It’s simply because you’re too cute, Charlotte," Justin’s voice was husky, filled with flirtatious charm.
His warm breath on Charlotte’s face and neck caused ripples of strange feelings in her heart.
"Stop teasing, I still have to pick up the babies."
Charlotte broke free from Justin’s arms, looked down at her somewhat disheveled clothes, and glared at Justin, a little annoyed, before turning to tidy up.
"Charlotte, are you really that heartless, not to comfort me a bit? I work very hard every day," said Justin, hugging Charlotte from behind, his chin resting on her shoulder.
"Well, you’ve worked hard; I’ll have Michael Richard make you a cup of coffee later," Charlotte said with a smile, turning around.
Who needs Michael Richard.
Justin thought with distaste.
And outside the office, Michael Richard suddenly sneezed.
