Chapter 86
Faye was looking at Lysander with all the feels and a boatload of emotions.
Lysander, on the other hand, had all eyes on his documents and didn’t even toss a glance her way.
Faye started to feel the nerves creeping in as she contemplated what she was about to say. She was all jittery and jumpy.
She feared she would end up just like all those women who confessed their feelings to Lysander, only to have him put them in the friend zone. She might not even get to be friends with him, let alone get close to him.
But if she didn’t spit it out, Lysander might get snatched up by Thalassa.
And then she’d be well and truly screwed.
After a quick thought, Faye decided to bite the bullet and confess.
But to just blurt it out would be too abrupt.
Faye went to the coffee bar, made a cup of coffee, and walked over to Lysander with the cup in hand. She placed the cup next to him, her voice now softer than usual. “Mr. Sinclair, take a break from work and have a coffee, will ya?”
Lysander, who had just signed off a document and put it in a folder, picked up the cup, took a sip, and asked calmly. “What’s up?”
After saying this, he put the coffee cup aside,
Faye’s heart started to pound. The closer she got to stating her feelings, the more nervous she was
She looked at Lysander’s handsome face and noticed his deep and intense eyes. His eyelids were slightly shiny, and his eyebrows were as thick as swords. He seemed to be shining with coolness.
Her heartbeat raced even faster.
She gathered her courage and said to Lysander, “Mr. Sinclair, I have the hots for you.”
She said it in a casual tone, as if she were just reporting on work.
But if you listened closely, you could hear her anxiety and unease mixed with a bit of feminine charm.
Lysander, still reading his documents, didn’t look up. “All the employees have the hots for me.”
Faye was taken aback, realizing he might have misunderstood.
She quickly clarified, “I’m in love with you. I want to be your girlfriend, I’ve had a crush on you for ten years.”
She had been by his side since she was a teenager, and her heart was filled with an undeniable love for him.
She finally let out the feelings she had been suppressing for ten years. In an instant, she felt relieved but also nervous and uneasy.
Lysander finally put down his work and looked at her, his tone cold, ‘Do you know what you’re saying? You’ve been acting all weird lately.”
Faye was shocked. Her face was flushed, and she quickly explained, “Mr. Sinclair, I am a woman.”
Lysander said, “I didn’t notice.”
He had always seen her as a male friend. When they were in the army, she was his subordinate and his comrade, so he saw her as a friend and a brother.
She actually wanted to be his girlfriend?
Faye’s heart took a major hit.
Lysander actually said he didn’t notice that she was a woman?
Her self-esteem was bruised, but she didn’t give up. She undid the buttons on her suit, opened up her shirt collar, walked over to Lysander, put her hands on the desk, and leaned her waist against the edge of the table, facing Lysander.
It took a matter of moments to turn her from a cold professional worker to a charming woman.
She moved closer to Lysander, deliberately making it clear to him as her voice became weak, “Mr. Sinclair, do you see it now?
I am a woman.”
Lysander was as cold as ice. His eyes were icy cold, so he dropped his pen and raised his hand, ready to push her away
hard.
“Mr. Sinclair, I didn’t mean to be late.” At the door of the CEO’s office, Thalassa walked in with a mop and a broom. She was about to explain to Lysander that she didn’t deliberately arrive late and was going to clean his office now.
She was halfway through her sentence when she suddenly saw the scene in front of her.
Faye was facing Lysander, trying to get close to him. Her actions were very ambiguous.
Oh my God!
