    It was none other than Bartlett.


    Unlike the Bartlett she saw in the morning, who was dressed in a neat suit, the Bartlett in front of her


    was now shirtless, with just a pair of jeans on.


    Ellinor frowned. “Mr. Rex, is it customary for you to strip in someone else’s office?”


    Beads of sweat rolled down Bartlett’s muscr shoulders, adding an enticing touch to his already fit


    physique.


    “Ellinor, isn’t this the oue you wanted?” He questioned.


    Ellinor grimaced. “What oue? I want you to leave, not hang around waiting for me.”


    Bartlett smirked. “Really? I thought you wanted me to stay and heat up, so you could enjoy the view.”


    Ellinor had seen shameless men, but none quite as presumptuous as this one.


    “Mr. Rex, are you always so full of yourself?”


    Bartlett chuckled nonchntly. “Of course not! Only when ites to you, Ellinor. You’ve put me in this


    state, so you’re responsible for me now.”


    Ellinor’s expression hardened. Her amusement was gone.


    This was the nchet Corporation. Her employees were waiting outside for her, and here was Bartlett,


    brazenly shirtless.


    What a spectacle!


    “Put your shirt back on!” She ordered.

    Bartlett, knowing this would irk Ellinor, moved a step closer. “No, I’m too hot! Ellinor, how can you make


    me wear a shirt in this heat? Are you trying to kill me?”


    “If you’re really that hot, put on your shirt and leave! It’s cooler outside! If you really refuse to wear your


    shirt, feel free to strut out shirtless. But you can’t be here and stand in front of me, half-naked!”


    Bartlett smirked. “Why can’t I be in front of you like this? Afraid you can’t resist?!


    Ellinor twitched her mouth in annoyance. “Have you no shame?”


    Bartlettughed lightly. “Ellinor, we’ve known each other for so long, yet you still don’t understand me?


    If I had any shame, I wouldn’t be chasing after you. I miss you every second we’re apart, to the point


    where I can’t sleep. I’ve tried staying away from you, but I couldn’t evenst until this morning before


    calling you. And now, you’re torturing me in this heat?”


    Ellinor frowned. “Mr. Rex, I can’t control what you think of me. But you should have some principles. I’m


    a married woman with children. Your behavior is inappropriate!”


    Bartlett held her in his arms. “I don’t care! I don’t care what people say about me. I only want you! I


    want to have you as my own! I’m willing to try anything to make you mine!”


    Ellinor, finally having had enough, kicked him in his special ce. “I’m sorry, I couldn’t hold back any


    longer! I shouldn’t resort to violence against a business partner, but today you crossed the line, Mr.


    Rex. I advise you not to say such things, especially in front of me. Otherwise, I’ll hit you each time you


    do.”


    Bartlett held his groin in pain and grunted. Weirdly, he then burst outughing. “Ellinor, I think I’m falling


    for you more and more. What should I do?”


    Ellinor shivered. “Mr. Rex, do you have a masochistic tendency?”


    Bartlett straightened up and pulled on his shirt. “Not with others, just with you. The more you reject me,


    the more exciting I find it.”


    Ellinor pulled a face. “Then you do have a serious problem. You should see a psychiatrist. I can’t cure


    you.”


    “No! You can cure me. You are my remedy!” He insisted.
