After setting the tray on Samuel’s desk, Tina readied to leave. Unexpectedly, he called out to
her.
“Why are you so eager to leave? Stop right there.”
Tina turned around nervously as a result. “Is there anything else I can do for you, Mr. Langford?” Samuel’s expression remained cold and aloof. “Do I have to teach you everything?” Tina was speechless when she heard his words. If he didn’t make his requests clear to her, how would she know what she had to do? What if she angered him again? Swallowing her words, Tina attempted to gauge Samuel’s reaction by asking, “Why don’t I massage your shoulders for you?”
The latter just grunted in response, apparently giving her permission to do so.
Tina approached him from behind carefully and started massaging his shoulders with her deft fingers.
He could feel her soft skin making contact with his shoulders. The light floral scent soon filled his nostrils, making his eves darken with lust.
Just as Tina was about to massage Samuel’s temples, he grabbed her hand immediately before snarling out in a deep voice, “Tina Lynd, you really are a master at seducing men!” “What? I never…”
Before Tina could refute, she found herself being pulled into the man’s strong arms right away. Having heard the movements coming from the study, Samuel’s subordinate closed and locked the study door firmly without a word.
Samuel left the study early in the morning. He sent an unconscious Tina back to her room so that she could rest better.
It was already noon when Tina finally woke up groggily.
The subordinate, who had been stationed to watch over the mansion, said to her happily, “I told you, didn’t I, Miss Lynd? If you’re more proactive, Mr. Langford won’t do anything to you! What I said before was correct, wasn’t it?”
Tina’s expression darkened as she massaged her sore lower back.
She shouldn’t have listened to the subordinate’s suggestion. Not only was Samuel untrustworthy, but his men also spouted garbage all the time.
“You’re wrong!” Tina replied huffily before slamming the door in the subordinate’s face, almost trapping his head between the door and the frame during the process. The subordinate was frightened by Tina’s sudden display of brutality. Just when he was about to leave, he heard her opening the door once more.
“Hold on. What time is it now?”
“It’s already noon. Once you’re done freshening up, you can go downstairs for lunch,” the subordinate replied respectfully.
Tina gasped out loud in response. “Didn’t Samuel tell me to go to work today? Why didn’t you wake me up early in the morning?!” “Mr. Langford told us that you were exhausted from last night’s events, so today will be your rest day. You can return to work once you’ve made a full recovery. Don’t worry, Miss Lynd,” the subordinate continued.
However, Tina no longer dared to believe such words. “I’ve more or less recovered. It should be his mealtime now, right? I want to go to work right now!”
“Um… Are you sure?” the subordinate asked.
“Yes!” Tina replied immediately.
The subordinate could only make arrangements for her hasty departure to the company. After that, he couldn’t help but mumble to his partner, “Is Miss Lynd’s recovery rate too fast, or could it be that Mr. Langford…”
“Don’t run your mouth like that! We don’t have the right to discuss Mr. Langford’s private affairs!” his partner scolded.
No one dared to bring Samuel’s affairs up after that. However, they found themselves wondering about his health.
Half an hour later, Tina arrived at the company. She bumped into Samuel, who exited the conference room just in time.
The sight of the flustered woman in front of him surprised him. “What are you doing here?”
“I…. I’m here with your lunch!” Tina explained.
“Oh? You still remember what I said to you last night?” “Of course! I wouldn’t dare forget what you said to me! Could it be that you don’t want to eat yet, Mr. Langford?”
“It’s fine. It appears that I’m hungry right now,” Samuel said coldly. Then, he issued an order to his assistant. “The meeting will be delayed by half an hour. Everyone is dismissed for lunch.”
