Chapter 1549


    Norah suddenly started squirming in his arms, holding onto his neck for dear life and refusing to let go.


    Xavier, a big guy, immediately stiffened up. The girl’s soft cheek was pressed against his neck, her


    delicate and fragrant touch made him tense up from head to toe Her sweet scent was making him a bit


    dizzy.


    Norah herself was shocked by her own actions. She must have gone nuts to do such a shameless


    thing after confessing to a guy.


    Her heart was pounding even harder than before, and her cheeks were burning, but she didn’t want to


    let go.


    After a moment of silence, Xavier said in a husky voice, “Down


    Norah froze for a moment, then let go and slid off him. She lowered her head, looking like a kid who


    had done something wrong, feeling utterly embarrassed. “Im sorry!”


    Xavier acted as if nothing had happened and went to pick up adder. “That’s enough, no more


    pruning. Fill clean up here, you go help Zachary in the kitchen.”


    “Okay.” Norah didn’t dare to look at Xavier, she headed for the kitchen. After a few steps, she stopped


    and looked apologetic. “I’m really sorry, I didn’t mean to offend you!”


    After saying that, Norah couldn’t help butugh. She rolled her eyes and went quickly into the kitchen..


    Xavier, carrying thedder, stared at the disappearing figure of the girl. He was taken aback. He


    thought she was embarrassed, but it turned out she thought she had done something bad.


    Offend?


    Why did the word ‘offend sound so strange?


    And she didn’t do it on purpose?


    Was someone forcing her?


    The more Xavier thought about it, the more amusing he found it. He allowed himself a small smile,


    looking at the bug on the fallen leaves. He flicked a leaf at the bug. The bug’s wings were shattered,


    and its ugly body fell into a pile of twigs and leaves.


    At the James Building


    In the afternoon, Charlie was holding a meeting in the marketing department’s meeting room, and


    Emily was there to take notes.


    Tracy was sitting at her desk, feeling that Charlie was bing more and more appreciative of Emily


    and that her position as an assistant would soon be taken over by someone else.


    Suddenly, someone came in from the elevator. Tracy looked over and stood up to greet her. “Ms,


    Waters!”


    Waters, dressed in a blue silk dress and with her makeup done to perfection, smiled and said, “I’m here


    to discuss some things with Mr. James. Fortunately, even though I haven’t been here for a long time,


    the receptionist didn’t give me a hard time?”


    Tracy immediately Taughed. “You are an honored guest, who would dare to stop you?”


    Waters took out a bottle of perfume from her bag and handed it to Tracy. “This perfume is Style


    Station’s new product, it suits you perfectly. The scent is fresh and elegant. The first time I smelled it, I


    thought of you


    Tracy epted the perfume with a big smile. “I always feel bad for making you spend money on me.”


    “It’s just a bottle of perfume, don’t be so formal with me!”


    Purchasing a few hundred dor perfume for Waters was like buying a cup of coffee that costs a few


    dors

    exined.


    Waters nodded in understanding “I know, that’s why I’m here. I hope Mr. James can consider our


    friendship and let me take part in some of the project”


    Tracy replied with a smile, “If Ms. Waters is interested, I’m sure Mr. James will consider it


    Waters changed the subject to “Where does Mr. James go to rx after work recently?”


    Tracy pondered for a moment before replying. Tm not quite sure, all of Mr. James’ schedule is now


    arranged by Emily”


    “Emily? Mr. James really trusts her Waters’ eyes lit up


    “Yes. Emily’s position in Mr James’ eyes is very high now, whatever Emily requests, Mr. James will


    agree to Tracy said with a smile, a look of inscrutability in her


    ““Really?” Waters seemed a bit surprised “Does Mr. James like her that much?”
