His Coy Lover

Once she entered the office, Zelda stopped and turned to look at the closed office door, then turned back to Charles, who was sitting behind the crescent-shaped desk.

Charles, in a suit with a light blue tie, looked exceptionally handsome and serious while working. Zelda couldn’t take her eyes off him.

It had to be said, this man was really good-looking.

“Have you seen enough?”

A cold voice came.

Charles put down his pen, looked up, and gazed at her coldly.

Even with some distance between them, Zelda could feel the chill emanating from him.

“Charles.”

Since she had come, there was no turning back.

Zelda told herself not to be timid. She put on a sweet smile, walked towards him, and said, “Charles, I came to see you.”

“I’ve seen you. You can leave now.”

He was still as indifferent as before, indicating that he was still upset.

Zelda cheekily approached Charles from behind, hugging his neck.

Charles forcefully pulled her hand away, coldly warning her, “Zelda, if you touch me again, I’ll have security come and drag you out immediately!”

“Charles…”

Zelda called out with a hint of grievance, dragging out the tone.

“Charles, I’m sorry. It’s my fault. From now on, I won’t give you things I personally make. I’ll buy expensive things for you. Is that okay?”

Zelda coaxed Charles like she was soothing a child.

“Whatever you like, just tell me, and I’ll buy it for you.”

Charles had a tight jaw and pressed lips, stubbornly remaining silent.

Zelda stole a glance at his expression, then took off the jade bracelet she had been wearing on her wrist.

She placed the jade bracelet in front of Charles and said reluctantly, “This bracelet was given to me by my grandmother from the Hasis family. She said it was passed down from her grandmother. It’s a real antique. I don’t know how much it’s worth, but to me, it’s very precious.”

“I know you might not care about it, Charles, but this is the most valuable thing I can offer right now. I hope you can accept it. Please, Charles, be generous and don’t pick on a little girl like me.”

While speaking, Zelda kept an eye on Charles’s reaction.

“Charles, don’t frown like that. You look so good when you smile. Do you want to smile?”

Charles looked at the jade bracelet and then reached out to pick it up.

Just taken off her wrist, it still retained her body temperature.

He examined the bracelet. It was indeed a good item.

Seeing Zelda’s reluctance, Charles mischievously said, “Since you gave it to me, I’ll accept it.”

Huh?

He also liked bracelets?

Reluctantly, Zelda stared at the bracelet for a long time. Finally, she withdrew her gaze, forced a smile, and said, “The one I gave to Charles, and Charles accepted it. It’s my honor.”

“Charles, are you still angry?”

“Who said I’m angry?”

Zelda was speechless.

If he wasn’t angry, why did he hang up on her and not reply to her messages, all while maintaining that expression?

“Is there anything else?”

“No, nothing.”

“The exit is over there. Please.”

“Charles…”

“Speak!”

“What should I say?”

Charles looked serious. “You called me; there must be something you want to say. I allowed you to speak, so speak.”

“But I don’t have anything to say. I just wanted to call your name, Charles.”

“Just for that?”

“Yes.”

Charles suddenly curved his lips.

He smiled.

But Zelda felt her scalp tingling when she saw his smile.

“Since you like calling my name so much, from now on, call my name a hundred times. Record it on your phone, and when you’ve called it a hundred times, send me the recording.”

Zelda…

She knew that when he smiled like that, nothing good would come of it.

Charles, you better keep that icy expression. She would never try to melt his icy demeanor again.

If the ice melted into water, it would drown her.

“I won’t be able to receive your recording; you’ll have to bear the consequences yourself.”

Zelda really wanted to ask him, what were the consequences of bearing it yourself?

“Is it Charles or Charles?”

“What else do you want to call me?”

Zelda pouted. “Got it.”

Walking around his crescent-shaped desk, Zelda left the room dejectedly.

Watching her in that state, Charles’s eyes showed a hint of amusement.

However, he didn’t speak up to stop Zelda; he just let her leave.

After she left, Charles called Monday.

“Come to my office.”

“Okay.”

After receiving the call, Monday hurriedly came, meeting Zelda, who was about to take the elevator.

“Zelda.”

Monday respectfully greeted her.

“Um.”

Zelda made a sound and entered the elevator.

Monday felt that Zelda seemed a bit lost. He didn’t have much time to speculate on what had happened with Zelda. In a rush, he went to meet his Master.

Charles handed the jade bracelet that Zelda gave him to Monday.NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

Monday looked at him with confusion, hesitant to accept it.

“Get a box for it, wrap it nicely, and I want to give it to someone.”

Only then did Monday take the jade bracelet.

“When does the Charles need it?”

“As soon as possible.”

“Alright.”

Monday carefully placed the jade bracelet into his suit pocket.

“Young Master, I just saw the Young Madam, and she seemed a bit down.”

Charles’s tone was indifferent. “Just gave me her precious possession. She’s not down; she still owes me an explanation.”

If she’s not down, it means the jade bracelet is not important. She’s still brushing me off.

Monday dared not say anything more.

“I threw a card this morning… Go find it and see if you can retrieve it.”

“I found it and brought it back. Do you want it?”

“…”

The bodyguards who followed him really understood him well. Fortunately, they were loyal to him; otherwise, he wouldn’t dare to keep such people around.

Charles waved his hand.

Monday silently exited his office.

Not long after, Monday got the love card that had been thrown away in the morningHe handed the love card to the secretary, asking her to deliver it to the CEO’s office.

Secretary was very curious about who sent the love card to the CEO.

The courage was quite big; she dared to send something to the CEO.

What surprised Secretary even more was that the CEO didn’t ask her to throw away the love card. Instead, he reached out and took it.

The delicate hearts on the love card, along with the pair of little mice on the office desk, made Secretary Yang sensibly realize that the CEO had changed.

It seemed like he was… in love!

A woman who could make the CEO’s heart move must be the luckiest person in the world.

Zelda… Was she the luckiest woman in the world?

It seemed like it.

After all, not everyone could go back in time like her, experiencing a second life.
