The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 1122

Chapter 1122 

“Mr. Larios, you’re right. My uncle will go all out to sort things out for me, but I don’t want to rely on him forever. I want to stand on my own two feet and tough it out a bit.” 

Chase appreciated her attitude, “Good on you. Was that coworker who was talking to you earller hitting on you?” 

Belinda was taken aback, explaining. “No, he just needed me to help him bind some documents because his stapler was broken.” 

Chase clearly didn’t buy her explanation, “That guy’s not bad; he’s a hotshot from a prestigious university, plus he’s pretty good-looking. You might want to give him a chance, since our company doesn’t frown upon office romances.” 

Belinda’s eyes flickered slightly, feeling a wave of unspeakable embarrassment, but she didn’t get angry; she simply nodded, “If he really likes me. I’ll give it a thought. Thanks for looking out for me. Mr. Larios.” 

Chase paused for a moment, then chuckled, “Alright, get back to work. If anyone asks for me, tell them I’m in Ms. Gipson’s office.” 

“Sure,” Belinda replied. 

Chase headed to Ida’s office, subconsciously adjusting his tie and feeling a bit stuffy. 

The CEO’s office wasn’t far from the Deputy’s, just a few steps away. 

Given his relationship with Ida, Chase didn’t bother knocking; he just pushed the door open, “Ida, did the boss call you? I have a funny feeling today. It seems like… what?” 

Chase didn’t notice what was happening inside the office room when he was speaking. But when he did, he was stunned by the sight. 

Ida was being kissed on the neck, pressed against the office’s large glass window. 

And the man pressing against her, Chase recognized him. It was Byran Howard! 

Seeing Chase burst in, Ida calmly pushed the man off her, straightened her clothes, returned to her desk chair, picked up the now-cold coffee from the desk, took a sip, and looked at Chase, “What were you saying?” 

Chase snapped back to reality, “I’ve just got this uneasy feeling; I’m worried about her being taken advantage of by that Mr. Blanchet.” 

Ida adjusted her gold-rimmed glasses, “I share your concern. I’ll give her a call later to check in.” 

However, Chase had already forgotten his initial intention. His eyes were filled with mischievousness as he walked over and poked at the mark on Ida’s neck, “Ida, never thought you’d be so wild, huh?” 

Ida frowned, and before she could speak, Byran swatted away Chase’s hand. 

Byran had a protective look on his face, “What the hell are you touching? You’re a man. You can’t just touch other women like that!”
