    Chapter 31 Offering a kiss


    Only the Dragon Valley in New York had these special roots growing.


    Is this box sent from New York? Then who sent it? This person clearly knew what kind of medicine she


    was


    studying.


    Is there someone watching her?


    Natalie was puzzled. She took out the herbs from the box and observed them carefully. She grew up in


    the Spears family and knew all kinds of herbs. Obviously, these were freshly harvested and also of


    excellent


    quality.


    Natalie raised her eyebrows. Since such a good gift had been sent to her, she couldn’t refuse this


    kindness.


    It would be a pity if such good stuff were not used properly.


    As for the person who was watching her, it seemed that she could not tell whether that was an enemy


    or a friend. If there was any following action that was disadvantageous to her, she had ways to find


    them.


    She put the herbs back in the boxes and took out her phone to call her assistant, “Ryan, pleasee


    to my house tomorrow. I have some herbs to take to theb.”


    “Okay, doctor.”


    “Is the constructionpleted? When can we go to theb?”


    In order not to expose her, Philip specially built a newboratory in Los Angeles for her and it was in a


    covert ce. When she suddenly got these rare herbs today, she just couldn’t wait to use them to

    drugs.


    “It should be finished this week. I will inform you as soon as I get the notice.”


    “Recently, the research and development of new drugs in Glory Group hase to a standstill. We


    couldn’t reach Mr. Johnson. The vice president just contacted me and asked if you can go to the


    company to direct


    the development of new drugs. What do you think?” Ryan asked.


    “Where has he been to? Couldn’t reach him?” Natalie poured herself a ss of water.


    Was he dumped? Could Philip be hurt so badly? It reminded her of the embarrassment that no one


    answered


    when she called him just now.


    Natalie sighed, “I see. I’ll go when I’m free.”


    She had nned to pay a visit when she got the news. After all, she was part of Glory….


    At the same time, Julian parked the car at the door of the apartment. Niki got out of the car reluctantly.


    She pulled Julian’s sleeves and said, “Julian, you really don’te in with me? Just have a rest. It’s


    not good for your health to work all the time.”


    Julian pinched his nose, “There are really a lot of things to deal with in thepany recently…”


    Niki moved closer to Julian and drew circles with her fingers on the man’s pure ck suit. “I don’t want


    you to


    work so hard…”


    Jun lowered his head slightly and pulled the woman out of his arms. His tone was calm. “There are


    some issues with the clinical trials. As the CEO of thepany, I have to deal with these things.”


    Seeing that Julian still insisted to leave, Niki blinked her eyes looked straight at the man in front of her.


    She said in a sweet voice, “Niki just wants to spend a little more time with you. You can’t even do that


    for me?”


    Julian thought for a moment, and apparently he didn’t know what to do with the woman. So he looked


    at Niki, who was pleading, and reluctantlypromised. “Then you could go to thepany with me.”


    ? Um-mm well, although she wanted Julian to go upstairs with her, she could ept it if she could go


    to the


    “Okay,” Niki smiled brightly, “I promise I won’t disturb you.”


    When the car arrived at thepany, Niki followed Julian upstairs. It was her first time toe to the


    CEO’s


    office.


    Sitting at the desk, with one hand propping her chin, Niki looked at Julian who was carefully reading


    documents in front of the desk. His features were almost perfect, almost like a Greek statue.


    Looking at the man’s face, Niki thought of something. She stood up, made a cup of coffee and carefully


    put it


    on his desk. But for some reason, she failed to hold it steadily, and hot coffee spilled on her dress.


    Niki eximed.


    Hearing this, Julian stood up in a hurry and wiped his face with a tissue. “Why are you so careless? Are


    you


    hurt?”


    “Julian, I didn’t mean to. I just wanted to make a cup of coffee for you. Please don’t me me…” Niki


    shook


    her head as she said, “it’s not hot… I brought you after I wait till it got cold.”


    Julian didn’t know whether there were scalds so he was still a little worried. He stood up and picked up


    the phone. “Ask the doctor toe to the office now.”


    Niki shook her head, “It’s really nothing. There’s no need to be so troublesome. It’s just that my clothes


    was in


    a mess…”


    Julian touched her head and picked up the phone again. “Bring ady’s dress and I’ll text you the size.”


    Not long after, the doctor came with a medical kit. When she saw Niki sitting on the chair, she was


    confused for a moment, but soon she returned to her usual look.


    She carefully checked Niki’s body, and took out some ice cubes. “Mr. Graham, thisdy is fine, and


    there is no scald. Her skin is just a little red. If you are worried, we could use ice to make her feel


    better.”


    Niki nodded repeatedly. “Thank you, doctor. I told you that it was nothing serious but he insisted on


    calling you…” As Niki spoke, she gave a coquettish nce at Julian.


    Julian withdrew his gaze and said, “Leave the clothes here. You can go now.”


    “Okay.” The doctor put down the dress and walked out of the office without looking sideways.


    A woman who looked like Mrs. Graham appeared in the CEO’s office. And he called her here in such a


    hurry but this woman was clearly not hurt. The doctor thought to herself, ‘Is that Mr. Graham’s ex lover?


    She had heard that Mrs. Graham was just a substitute, but she didn’t believe that such a beautiful


    woman could be a substitute for someone?


    But when she saw how the CEO treated this woman today, she finally believed it…….


    Niki took the dress, nced at Julian affectionately, who was already back to work. She then went into


    the


    lounge.


    The sound of a woman changing clothes came from the lounge. Niki looked at herself in the mirror. Her


    hair was straggled on her shoulders. Under the pure white dress were her slim legs. She looked


    innocent and charming in this dress.


    She looked at herself in the mirror and said slowly, “Julian, there’s something wrong. Can youe in


    and help me?”


    The door opened and Julian walked in. He saw the woman with her shoulders exposed standing in


    front of the mirror, a little uneasy. Her wless back was also exposed, and her smooth skin was


    glowing under the


    light.


    “Julian, help me zip it up please. I can’t reach it…” Niki said in a trembling voice.


    Julian’s hand swept over her dress, and zipped it for her slowly upward. When the man’s fingers


    identally touched her sensitive spot on the back, the chemistry suddenly grew between them.


    Niki felt more assured then. ording to her n, the timing was just right….


    Without hesitation, Niki turned her head, closed her eyes, pulled the man over and kissed him.


    But before her lips reached his…


    Unexpectedly, there was a knock on the door, and the zipper just reached the top so the man gently


    pushed


    her away.


    “Someone is here,” said Julian in a low voice. He didn’t know why he felt a little irritable in the


    ambiguous


    atmosphere?


    After saying that, Julian walked out silently, leaving Niki stunned.
