Chapter 302 : Chapter 302 : I’ve been waiting for you for more than an hour!
One hour later, three simple home-cooked dishes were ready.
A potato and rabbit stir-fry, Kung Pao chicken, and a pork rib corn soup. Scott Harris helped her pack the dishes into a thermos, along with freshly cooked white rice, and urged her, “Ms. Clark, let’s hurry over. Lord has been waiting for a long time.”
“Alright.”
Enna Clark knew Baron Lawrence’s temper, and seeing Mr. Harris’s anxious face, she feared he’d already received an angry phone call. So she hurriedly removed her apron, washed her hands, and picked up the thermos before heading out the door and getting into Scott’s car.
minutes later.
The car stopped at the entrance of the BBC Radio building.
Scott led her through the President’s exclusive elevator, arriving directly on the 33rd floor.
It was lunchtime, and the receptionists were gossiping when they saw Enna enter with Scott’s guidance, carrying the thermos container of food. The women stopped talking and stared at Enna with excitement, as if she were a celebrity. They kept watching until she disappeared around a corner in the corridor, and then spoke in a low voice, full of envy, “So it’s her. She’s the President’s girlfriend. She doesn’t look that great. vet she caught his eve. She
must have incredible luck.”
“Yeah, last time the President instructed me to allow her to come without an appointment, I guessed that she would be promoted soon. I didn’t expect her to be so cunning that in such a short time, she captured the President’s heart, and he even made a public declaration of her girlfriend status.” “Sigh, it looks like she’s going to marry into a wealthy family.”
The women were all envious.
Unaware of their envy, Enna entered the President’s office after Scott knocked on the door and opened it for her. Scott then politely closed the door behind her and left.
Enna had been to the President’s office on the 33rd floor before, but this time she felt different.
No longer feeling as nervous and clueless as before, she now had a sense of composure.
Behind the large office desk, the man working looked up from his paperwork. With his chiseled features, he appeared even more aristocratic than a European noble! Upon seeing Enna, his hawk-like eyes brightened for a moment before turning cold and displeased. “Did you and Scott get lost or lose your way? Since I called you, an hour, thirteen minutes, and twenty-four seconds have passed! In other words, you’ve kept me waiting for over an hour!”
As expected, Baron Lawrence was moody…
Enna had already grown used to this, acting as if she hadn’t heard or seen anything, and smilingly placed the thermos on his desk, “Sorry for the wait, the cooking took a bit of time.”
Baron Lawrence’s anger subsided slightly, “What is this?”
Enna grinned as she took out the dishes one by one, placing them in front of him, “Voilå, it’s these. Have you finished your work? Would you like to eat something?”
The anger was now extinguished!
At the smell of the food, Baron Lawrence suddenly felt a surge of appetite. For the first time, he set aside work, and his hawk-like gaze swept from the dishes to her slightly open mouth.
“I didn’t eat this morning.”
This morning, afraid of waking her, he hadn’t even had a ‘bite’!
Enna misunderstood, thinking he meant he hadn’t had breakfast, then paused, “I know, Scott told me you were busy at the office this morning and didn’t have breakfast.”
“So, I’m hungry.”
He was so eager to see her that he couldn’t wait!
Eager to hold her in his arms!
Enna genuinely thought he was hungry, so she carried the dishes over to the sofa table and said, “Come and eat if you’re hungry.”
“Enna, remember you offered.”
‘ Enna turned, puzzled.
Wasn’t that what she said? If he’s hungry, shouldn’t he eat? Starve himself for no reason?
The next second, she understood what she had said wrong.
She was suddenly pinned down on the sofa, and the handsome man loomed over her, his male hormonal scent overpowering. His deep features were more captivating than any male model’s, and his eyes were focused solely on her as if she were the only person he could see!
Enna’s heartbeat accelerated.
She still held the chopsticks in her hands but couldn’t find an opportunity to set them down.
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
“She’s my woman. Can’t I look at her?” His domineering gaze seemed to want to draw her in. His eyes were beautiful, like black obsidian, and possessed a fatal attraction. When they were fixed on someone, it was as if they could only see that person. That feeling of being stared at intently was irresistible to any woman!
Seeing his eyes like this made Enna’s heart skip a beat, but she ignored her momentary palpitations, turned her head away, and tried to push him away while saying, “Baron Lawrence, eat first. If you don’t eat soon, the food will be cold…”
The man looming above her was incredibly domineering, ‘What if it gets cold?”
So direct!
Rude!
It was just a meal, and if it got cold, she could just have someone make a new one. Why did he have to let go of her hand over a meal? All he wanted to do now was hold her hand and never let go!
As long as it was her hand, he felt as if he could hold it for a lifetime!
As long as he held her hand, she was by his side, and the satisfaction it brought him was indescribable. It felt even more fulfilling than having the entire world. His heart was full, a sense of completeness that material things couldn’t provide. Only the little woman in front of him could give him that feeling, as if Adam had found Eve, and he had found his missing other half, a perfect fit!
He really wanted to hold her hand like that, never letting go for the rest of his life!
Fortunately, Baron Lawrence remembered that she had just had a fever the night before, and her body had not yet recovered. He swallowed forcefully, releasing her wrist, and got up.
Enna was worried he would cause trouble but was abruptly released. She quickly sat up and distanced herself from him.
Baron Lawrence pulled her close, his eyes locked onto hers, and demanded petulantly, “Enna, feed me!”
“Feed… feed you?”
His lips brushed, showing no embarrassment as he commanded, ‘Yes, feed me!”
“You can refuse, but there will be consequences.”
Such a blatant threat!
Enna was speechless for a moment and then cautiously asked him, “What consequences?”
This woman, did she really have to be so clueless? She actually asked him what the consequences would be! Baron Lawrence was infuriated by her, grinding his teeth and growling, “Would you believe it if I said I’d send you to Country T to mine coal?”
