Chapter 14 Plotting Her Downfall +8 Pearls Upon hearing her response, both of them were intoxicated by lust, their breaths growing noticeably more rapid as the rhythm of their movements gained pace.

Just then, there was a knock at the door.

Thud, thud, thud... The persistent knocking echoed again and again. The person outside the door relentless, as if they weren't going to stop.

r seemed Sebastian and Madelyn ddenly cto their senses. After giving each other a look, they separated from each other abruptly as if they could read each other's minds. Then, they cach began to calm themselves down.

Sebastian quickly recovered, but Madelyn had several buttons on her blouse loosened by him, and her face was flushed with a deep red.

Seeing her like this, Sebastian softly said, "Straighten your clothes, then focus on your book." After he finished speaking, he took a moment to regulate his breathing. He adjusted his tie, took a deep breath, and finally regained his composure.

Meanwhile, Madelyn's face was etched with dissatisfaction. She was grumbling to herself, wondering which idiot was it who didn't know better.

She and Sebastian had finally gotten a rare opportunity to deepen their bond, but it was abruptly interrupted. What a pity.

After the two of them had freshened up. Sebastian returned to his desk. Madelyn, on the other hand, lowered her head and buried herself in her books.

Only then did Sebastian casually respond to the person outside the door. "Cin." Malcolm promptly pushed open the office door. Then, he walked in respectfully, holding a document. He nodded at Sebastian and greeted, “Mr. Lockhart.” No sooner had he finished speaking than Malcolm felt a piercing glare directed at him. A shudder ran through his body, as if the gaze was a razor-sharp blade ready to flay him alive.

When he took a closer look, the person glaring at him was none other than Madelyn, who was found sprawled over the desk in the CEO's office.

Malcolm was taken aback, wondering what he had done wrong this tto upset her. Why is she looking atthat way? It sent shivers down his spine.

Is she throwing a tantrum again? The mere thought of it made Malcolm's hair stand on end and goosebumps. to cover his skin.

Luckily, Sebastian, with a face as cold as ice, turned to Malcolm at that smoment and asked, “What's the matter?" Only then did Malcolm breathe a sigh of relief. Holding the documents in his hand, he walked up and handed them to Sebastian. “Mr. Lockhart, this proposal has just been issued by the project department. It requires your approval, followed by your signature." 1/3 Thu, Apr 3 AGD Chapter 14 Plotting Her Downfall Without betraying any emotion, Sebastian subtly nodded his head.

As soon as Sebastian left, Madelyn once again had her que emotions on display. She cagerly turned her gaze toward Sebastian, hoping that they could continue what they had not been able to finish earlier.

However, Sebastian's face remained impassive. It was so calm that no fluctuations could be detected. It was as if the earlier events had never happened at all.

He kept his gaze fixed on the documents in his hand, not once lifting his eyes to look at Madelyn. It was then that Madelyn understood that he clearly didn't want to continue.

Since Sebastian wasn't interested, Madelyn had no choice but to let it go. However, she couldn't help but let out a dissatisfied huff, as if she purposely wanted high to hear it.

Nevertheless, Sebastian still showed no reaction, leaving Madelyn with no choice but to bury herself in her books, feeling somewhat disappointed.

At noon. Malcolm cover anxiously to inform them that there was an important meeting to be held. Sebastian glanced at Madelyn, a hint of helplessness in his eyes. "I have a meeting to attend, so I can't accompany you for lunch. Find something to eat on your own. Don't let yourself go hungry." After speaking, he turned around and followed Malcolm into the conference room.

Madelyn was left perplexed. What's with that attitude? However, she couldn't really blSebastian. After all, in a company, work always took priority.

However, when an idea struck her, Madelyn's eyes suddenly lit up. "Since you can't accompanyfor a meal, how about I buy food back and we eat together?" What a brilliant idea! Madelyn silently praised herself, then proceeded to descend the stairs alone.

However, who could have predicted that upon entering a nearby restaurant, she would have the misfortune of running into Christopher.

He was clad in grey casual attire. Standing nearby, he was looking around as if he was waiting for something. Madelyn couldn't help but lament, Why am I so unlucky! How did I end up running into him here? Then, she shielded her face with her hand, leaning on the counter to place her order. After that, she quietly slipped into a seat, patiently waiting for her meal to be prepared and packed.

As fas Christopher, she believed that as long as she didn't provoke him, he wouldn't notice her. She thought that if she could just avoid him, that would be enough.

However, it seemed as if Christopher knew she wa there. He looked right at her, and not just that, he even took the initiative to walk over.

Madelyn, it's a surprise to see you here. What a coincidence. Have you eaten yet? How about I treat a meal?" Christopher said generously. He walked over to Madelyn and naturally took a seat across from her with a gentlemanly expression.

But things were different now. Despite his refined appearance, who knew what sinister plans he was hatching behind the scenes.

Madelyn knew that both Christopher and Janessa were the stype of people. On the surface, they seemed On harmless to both people and animals, but in reality, they were constantly scheming against her in their minds. Reflecting on this, Madelyn felt a wave of disgust. She quickly waved her hand. "No need, thank you." "Madelyn, you don't need to be so shy with me. We've known each other for quite stnow. It's just a meal. It's the least 1 can do." After Christopher finished speaking, he raised his hand, intending to call the waiter to order food. However, his arm was abruptly stopped.

Madelyn Shook her head, her refusal firm. "Christopher. I appreciate your generosity, but there's really no need. I don't have much of an appetite. I'll be leaving after I pack my food." Madelyn did not wish to get close to Christopher, hence her demeanor was as cold as it could possibly be.

Surprisingly, Christopher misunderstood, thinking that Madelyn was giving him the cold shoulder because she was playing & hard to get. He figured that Madelyn was under the impression that he had once looked down on her, and now that she had dressed up and looked beautiful, she was putting on airs, expecting him to take the initiative to approach her. Heh, does she think I can't see through such little schemes? With these thoughts in mind, Christopher confidently stepped forward, tenderly taking Madelyn's delicate hand in his.

"Madelyn, I admit that I did neglect you in the past, and I apologize. But invite you to today, all I want is, to meah Plus meat Plus, the weather is pleasant today. Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could go for a joyride together after we eat?" What's so wonderful about that? I'm not the least bit interested When Madelyn's hand was held by Christopher, a wave of nausea surged within her.
