A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 189: Don’t Be So Good to Me
"Miss Burns, do you have any comments?" Liam interjected before Suzy could speak, his tall figure shielding her completely.His posture seemed to suggest that if Sophia dared to insult Suzy further, he was ready to intervene physically.In Liam's presence, Sophia naturally couldn't continue her haughty behavior.She furrowed her brows slightly, looking up at Liam, "Don't forget the promise you made to your father."After that, Sophia turned and walked away.She left those words hanging, and surprisingly, Suzy did not pursue the matter."I've finished up; let's go home," Liam said."Okay."Liam didn’t call for a driver; instead, he personally drove them back to Easter Bay.On the way, they stopped to buy some vegetables and fruits, and after arriving home, they busied themselves in the kitchen and had a simple dinner.Near the end of the meal, Suzy hesitated with her fork in hand and suddenly said, "You should take back the project account and password you gave me. It would make your pa
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 190: Check-Up
After finishing the meeting, Liam quietly pushed open the bedroom door, careful not to wake Suzy.However, he found her still awake, working late into the night at her computer.He frowned slightly and quietly approached to look at the data and reports on her screen. "Is the workload I've given you too heavy?"Suzy jumped, startled. "When did you get here? I didn't see you.""Just now, you were very focused." Liam sat at the end of the bed. "I'll ask Alec to lighten your load.""No need! I asked him to delegate these tasks to me." While speaking, Suzy did not stop her work, "I've been resting recently, and he's probably been too busy to sleep. Now that I've taken some of the workload, it should give him a chance to breathe.""But you need to work overtime every day to handle all this.""It won't be for long, just a week at most."Suzy marked the documents one by one, saved them, and finally closed her computer with a sigh of relief. "Don't worry about me, I know my own limits."Despit
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 191: Before the Incident
Liam didn't reply to him. He simply deleted the message and opened the window before lighting a cigarette using the lighter.Top of FormAfter calming himself, he showered and returned to the bedroom, embracing the already asleep Suzy.In moments like these, he felt a sense of reality that Suzy was truly his....The next morning, Suzy was awakened by her alarm clock.As she had to accompany Alec today for some due diligence, she needed to prepare the documents and such at the company in advance.She had thought she would wake up earlier than Liam, but when she opened her eyes, he was already up, preparing breakfast in the kitchen.Stretching, she walked over in her slippers. "Liam, sometimes I think you don't need to sleep at all."Liam was frying eggs, turning his handsome face to glance at her and smiled. "I'm used to it. I haven't slept more than six hours since graduation.""Being a CEO is really tough." Suzy realized.She used to think that being the one giving orders was the mos
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 192: Today Will Be the Last
As Liam's car disappeared from view, Suzy turned with a smile, heading back to her office.When suddenly, Sophia appeared out of nowhere, her high heels clicking on the ground as she approached Suzy step by step.Suzy wanted to avoid getting involved with Sophia; she had a lot of work to do and couldn't afford to deal with Sophia every day."You don't need to avoid me. Today will be the last time I'll talk to you alone."Sophia wore a floral perfume, its scent distinct as she drew closer.Suzy disliked the smell.She stepped back. "What do you want to say?""Stay away from Liam, or you'll face consequences you can't handle."Sophia's words carried an implicit threat.Though her tone wasn't loud or fierce, somehow, it weighed heavily on Suzy."What are you trying to do? Miss Burns, you and your mother took away the family that should have been mine, I haven't done anything to hurt you so far. But instead, you're trying to frame and blackmail me. Don't think for a moment that I'm an easy
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 193: I Need to Come Back
His simple WhatsApp message instantly dissolved all of Suzy's fatigue and worries from the day.Perhaps this was the power of love, no wonder everyone longed for it."Alright, take care out there too.""Okay."After putting down her phone, Suzy took a bath to relax.After changing into her home clothes, she instinctively checked when her period was due.Before married life, her periods were often late due to work stress or life pressures, so she wasn't panicked or overly worried, thinking this delay was probably due to the pileup of events affecting her health.However, her period was often late by only three or five days at most.It seemed she really should visit the hospital sooner rather than later!Suddenly, the doorbell rang.Suzy rushed to open the door, and indeed, it was John, carrying a variety of bags, both large and small, indicating a generous selection."I'm just one person, I can't eat all this!""Mr. Park was worried there might be something you won’t like to eat, so he
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 194: Liam’s Selfie
Liam chuckled softly after a pause, "Alright, you wait for me."After hanging up the phone, Suzy quickly ate some food and carefully stored the rest in the fridge.Even though Liam was wealthy, she didn't believe in his wasting food.With everything in order, she glanced at her phone again; Liam had sent a photo three minutes ago. It was a picture of him in the car.He must have been truly exhausted, so unlike his usual impeccably dressed self, Liam had loosened the top two buttons of his shirt. His tall figure reclined in the back seat, and the digits of his tattoo were faintly visible.Not used to taking selfies, his handsome face bore a stiff smile, tinged with a boyish shyness and bewilderment.Suzy saved the photo and then sent him a message to drive slowly and safely.Not one to waste time, Suzy opened her laptop to handle some project work while waiting for Liam. The material procurement contract from the partner had arrived, and with a major turnover in the legal department fo
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 195: Morning Wood
Suzy knew what he was thinking, so she gently placed her hand on the back of his."I'm not tired. I feel like this is what gives my life value."Although she knew she could never truly match Liam's status through her own efforts, she didn't want anyone to say she was with him just for his money.That would be no different from being kept as his sugar baby."Alright, just make sure not to overwork.""I will, don't worry."After Liam went to freshen up and changed into his robe, Suzy, overwhelmed by fatigue, finally shut down her computer.That night, he held her close in his arms the entire time, like inseparable conjoined twins.Who would have guessed that privately, Liam was such a clingy type...In the morning, the sunlight slipped through the gaps in the curtains, casting a warm glow.Suzy was the first to stir, furrowing her brow slightly. Before she even opened her eyes, she felt his hand around her waist and… his big and hard erection pressing against her.Usually, Liam woke up f
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 196: Can’t Blame Me
"Alright." Suzy didn't quite understand but figured Alec had his reasons.Alec sighed silently as he watched the naively simplistic Suzy in front of him.No wonder Liam had to be so secretive before! If he hadn't quietly embedded himself by Suzy's side, slowly infiltrating her life, she might have fled before he even had a chance to confess—just as her skittish, rabbit-like nature might suggest.After giving his instructions and collecting the documents, Alec was about to leave.Suzy suddenly called out to him, "Oh, I'm planning to go for a medical check-up this Saturday. Are you sure there's nothing you need to schedule for me?"She was worried about being called back to the office in the middle of her appointment."Go ahead, it's fine!" Alec raised an eyebrow. "Are you feeling unwell?""No, it's just a routine check-up.""Ah, that’s good to have! Our job is stressful, and you’ve been through a lot recently. It’s a good habit to keep a regular check on your health. Speaking of which,
