A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 297: Business Trip to West City
As soon as Suzy opened the door, she noticed an extra desk in her office!Was someone going to share this space with her? No one had mentioned it to her.Suzy was about to turn around and ask Peter about it when she saw Ryan walking towards her with a spring in his step."Finished with the meeting?""Yes." Suzy couldn't avoid him, so she smiled and nodded.Ryan waved a lunch box in front of her. "Hey, I just drove an hour to get this for you! You haven't eaten yet, right? This is a local specialty from Windsting City.""…No need. I'll eat something at the hotel after I finish up here. I'm not hungry right now.""You're that cautious about just eating something?" Ryan blinked, pretending to be hurt. "Afraid I put something in it? Here, I'll take the first bite."Suzy felt cornered and awkwardly waved her hand. "No, it's just that I'm not hungry! But thanks for the gesture, I'll take it back to the hotel and eat it later."She knew that if she didn't accept it, Ryan would stay and talk f
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 298: The Driver Reminded Her of Someone
His tone, his words.It was exactly like he was reminding a girlfriend.Suzy's smile stiffened, and she chuckled awkwardly. "Thanks for the concern, boss."Ryan was speechless.He could blur the lines between personal and professional matters under the guise of work, so she could constantly remind him of their actual relationship....Evening came, and night fell.Suzy returned to her hotel, took a shower, and after a brief video call with her daughter, she opened her laptop to work.Ryan had sent over the new project materials. She skimmed through them; the due diligence shouldn't be too difficult, mainly focusing on the certification of the partnering company.Typically, in this kind of secondary agricultural product processing industry, there might be some discrepancies with product certificates and business registrations, but as long as it's not too excessive, it shouldn't pose major problems. However, she needed to ensure these hidden risks were thoroughly investigated to avoid a
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 299: Who Are You Marrying
Before leaving the country, she needed to finish all her work.She had to complete what she started.Suzy worked for several hours, and when she finally looked up, it was already 2 a.m.Her neck was sore, so she had to take a break.She instinctively checked her phone and noticed that the driver had sent another message. To avoid losing his contact, she had saved his number under a nickname.Driver from Windsting City texted, “Are going to West City for work?”Suzy found it odd that he was asking this, but she replied anyway, “Yes, going there for a business trip.”After sending the message, she realized it was the middle of the night. The driver was probably already asleep, given his age.She got up to stretch, and when she returned to her computer, she saw that the driver had replied!Suzy double-checked; it was indeed 2:30 a.m.Driver from Windsting City replied, “Oh, safe travels.”She smiled, feeling a bit warm inside.Although their introduction was less than ideal, the driver se
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 300: Ryan Came to Fetch Suzy
Liam rubbed his temples, his eyes full of frustration."My engagement announcement hasn't affected the company."Grace's voice got louder. "No impact? Shareholders have been calling non-stop to ask about the future Mrs. Park. Do you think they're just being curious?"For a large company like Park Group, every new member must be vetted carefully. Any scandal or rumor could affect the stock market."I said it has no impact.""Then tell me who this person is. I need to investigate, or I won't be at ease.""I'm the acting CEO now, and if I say there's no issue, then there's no issue. If you and Dad are worried, you can remove me from my position."Grace was furious. "You—""If I can't even make personnel decisions as CEO, then I might as well not be one.""You're willing to give up your position just for a woman?" Grace paused, then sneered, "I bet it's Suzy again. No one else could make you lose your mind like this."Liam didn't argue. Instead, he gave a mocking smile."So, you do know."
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 301: Feeling Uncomfortable
That pair of eyes would be enough to enchant many women.Combined with his outstanding background and work abilities, if he weren't a playboy, he shouldn't have trouble finding a girlfriend.Suzy just thought he had nothing better to do and was trying to mess with her.The less attention men pay to her, the more enthusiastic they become."Here!" Ryan spotted her figure, took off his sunglasses, and waved at her.Suzy sighed and walked towards him on her high heels. "You're up so early, I thought I wouldn't see you until noon.""Don't you need to be diligent when pursuing someone? If I were later, I'd be afraid you'd drive to work yourself."Saying this, Ryan handed over the breakfast in his hand.It really seemed like he was serious about pursuing her.Suzy didn't take it and kept her distance from him, "This makes me very uncomfortable, Mr. Paynes. I prefer the way we interacted before, and I don't want to change that.""But you said you'd give me a chance. Shouldn't I put in some eff
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 302: Liam Worked Hard to Reply to Suzy
Suzy looked up at him, her brows furrowing slightly.She understood the reasoning, but she really didn't want to see any casualties on the construction site."And do you know? Many workers are actually willing to die on the job."Suzy was stunned, finding this statement absurd.Ryan shrugged with a smile, motioning for Peter to leave so he could talk to Suzy alone. "If they were to die on the job, the company would pay compensation, which might be more than they could earn in a lifetime of hard work! Our compensation standards are much higher than other companies, and I’ve also insured the project, so you don’t need to worry about this anymore.""Isn't this just your personal view? Who would wish to die?""There are many people in the world who commit suicide. Is that just my personal view?"Suzy was speechless.Ryan smiled. "I know you’re kind-hearted. You want every worker to come to work safely and go home happily, but everyone’s situation is different. I've done my best for them, S
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 303: You’re on Suzy’s Side
After all, as a "driver," what common topics could he have with Suzy? If he forcefully tried to start a conversation, given Suzy's personality, she would probably delete him.She didn't like people suddenly getting close to her.Liam was well aware of this.He also knew how quickly Suzy could delete someone."Knock knock—"A knock came from outside the office.Liam finally looked away from his phone screen. "Come in."Alec was the one who opened the door."Mr. Park, I'm about to leave for Windsting City."He wondered if he should also book a ticket for Liam.Of course, Alec didn't dare ask this last part directly."Alright," Liam just gave a simple response and continued reading his documents.Seeing this, Alec figured Liam wasn't planning to go to Windsting City with him, so he put down the proposal he was holding and turned to leave.As he reached the door, Liam called out to him!"Book me a ticket for next Monday.""To Windsting City?"Liam glanced at him, frowning. "To West City."

Alec smiled, maintaining his composed demeanor. "Miss Burns, I work for Mr. Park."As for whether Alec supported Suzy, it all depended on Liam. If Suzy was with Liam, then Alec could be considered on her side as well. The key point was that Sophia would never have the opportunity to be close to Liam.Sophia frowned. Since coming back to the country, her different encounters had made her more impatient, particularly when dealing with someone as elusive as Alec."Are you so sure that Liam will never marry me? Mrs. Park has already chosen me as her daughter-in-law. Mr. Lincoln, I advise you to think ahead and not be shortsighted. You'll regret it later."Alec pretended to listen seriously and even nodded. "Thank you for the reminder, Miss Burns."Sophia was speechless."Is there anything else? I need to get back to the office to deliver some files to Mr. Park."Since he mentioned work, Sophia couldn't hold him back any longer. Delaying work was a serious matter.Sophia's lips twitched in
