Chapter 1551


    Julian and Helena, though led away by their parents, were practically strangers to the couple, having met their inws for the first time.


    Hertha was worried sick that the kids would be frightened or throw tantrums from not seeing her for a long stretch, fearing her parents wouldn''t be


    able to handle their meltdowns.


    "Take a look at this," Ethan said, pulling some documents from his briefcase.


    As Hertha started to focus on the jewelry designs, Thssa shot a meaningful nce at Lysander.


    Lysander was holding the documents for the designs she was supposed to work on, yet he hadn''t handed them over to her.


    She looked at Lysander, but he seemed not to notice her gaze, leisurely sipping his tea as if he wasn''t in any rush to get down to business.


    Seeing Lysander ignoring her, she politely said, "Mr. Sinir, is there anything in those documents I can help with?"


    If her look wasn''t hint enough, Thssa''s words certainly were direct.


    After she spoke, her hopeful eyes met his as he calmly ced his teacup down, his deep gaze flicking over to her, saying. "No rush."


    Thssa was puzzled. What did he mean by no rush''? Wasn''t the whole point of this meeting to tackle work-rted issues? Hertha had already

    After about half an hour, Hertha had meticulously exined the technical issues with the designs to Ethan.

    Hertha gritted her teeth, "Mr. Ethan, you''re such a jerk! Why didn''t you say so earlier? I''ve been talking my mouth dry for nothing!"


    Ethan offeredker a cup of water


    with a teasiny remark, "Ms.


    Kensington; have some tea. Maybe


    it''s best t you sit closer to our director,

    Hertha was at a loss for words.


    Sipping the water Ethan handed her, she hurried through her exnation to save time and possibly get home sooner.


    Without objection, she moved her


    chair next to ric, pointing out thie


    details i in the documents she had


    previously discussed with Ethan.


    Hertha was earnest, and ric initially focused on the documents. However, his gaze gradually shifted to Hertha''s face.


    Her big eyes and the ssic rosy-cheeked face, possibly flushed from irritation or haste, resembled a ripe apple.


    The more he looked, the more tempting it became, sweet and tender, reminiscent of the time he and Hertha first got entangled.


    ric''s gaze turned dreamy, admiring Hertha''s side profile, her slightly chubby cheeks adding to her charm.


    The more he looked, the sweeter she seemed to him


    Midway through her exnation, Hertha felt ric''s warm breath on her cheek, a bit heavy, which felt oddly off.


    She abruptly stopped talking. turned around, and her wide eyes met ric''s intense gaze, sparking an almost tangible fire between them.


    Feeling the heat from ric''s stare,


    Hertha''s heart skipped a beat. The
