Loving the CEO novel Chapter 28

"Well okay Adam, why did you rub down my thigh?" she spat angrily.

"I did it because your legs were shaking. Did you not like it?"

Looking at me I could see her hesitating and I knew I had her where I wanted her––well not technically. "No, I did not like it," she finally said but I knew she was lying. I could hear it clearly in her voice.

"Then why did you shudder when I did?" I asked. With both eyebrows raised, I waited for her answer, wondering what her excuse was going to be.

"I was cold."

Laughing at her while getting up, I walked right over to her. My height towering over her small frame.

"Why are you so afraid of letting me in? Why are you so against us? What exactly are you afraid of?" My questions came flying out. Licking her lips, I watched her intently. She was clearly nervous and a bit flustered by me being so close.

"I just don't want to––"

"You don't want Emily?" I asked curiously but before she could answer a knock came at the door. Straightening up, I saw James walking holding Heather by her arm in a tight vice grip.

"What's the meaning of this James?"

"Guess who I found lurking inside your office going through your stuff?"

Shaking my head, I asked both Emily to excuse Heather and I but before James had completely left the room I saw him flash me a smirk. Laughing at him, I sat back down and motioned for Heather to do the same.

"Why were you in my office Heather and who let you in?"

"I snuck in Adam and I was looking for you."

"You were looking for me through my paperwork?"

"Well no not rea––"

"What do you want Heather?" I barked, getting impatient with her and her antics.
