The atmosphere at the scene was lively and pleasant. The group entered the conference room, engaging in cheerful conversation. Subsequently, they delved into discussions regarding the upcoming collaboration on a perfume, focusing on research and development strategies.
During this time, Aletta provided numerous insightful suggestions, each hitting the mark. Her presence naturally enhanced efficiency.
After a meeting that lasted over half an hour, the preliminary structure and development plan was completely finalized. Once it concluded, the team members returned to their respective positions and began their busy work. Aletta found Lotus and said, “If there are further research and development issues, feel free to contact me by phone.”
Lotus nodded and made an ‘OK’ gesture, indicating, “No problem!”
With the arrangements in order, Aletta and Flora felt comfortable leaving. As they reached the elevator door together, Flora stopped and said, “I won’t go up. I’ll wait for Ray in the parking lot.”
Aletta had no objections and replied, “Alright then, I’ll go up.”
Subsequently, Aletta took the elevator upstairs. Upon

reaching the top floor, when Aletta stepped out of the elevator, she encountered Ray, who had just exited his office. Aletta reminded him, “Flora is waiting for you in the parking lot.”
“I know. Flora already told me,” Ray politely replied.
They bid farewell, and Ray said, “I’ll be on my way, Aletta.”
“Go ahead.”
After going downstairs, Ray headed straight to the parking. lot. From a distance, he saw a figure standing by the car, waiting for him. Flora also spotted him and, trying to maintain composure, asked, “What do you need to talk to me about?”
Ray twirled the car keys with his index finger and calmly said, “My parents want to meet my girlfriend. They asked me to bring someone home for dinner tonight. So tonight, you’ll be playing the role of my ‘fake girlfriend, Ms. Smith.”
Upon hearing this, Flora was utterly dumbfounded. Did she hear correctly?! Ray wanted to bring her home to meet his parents. Wasn’t it just yesterday that they made their relationship public? She voiced her doubts, “Seriously? That’s so soon? We just announced our relationship. Isn’t it too early to meet the parents???”
Ray nodded calmly as if it were a common occurrence and said, “It is indeed a bit fast for us, but my parents have been urging me to find a girlfriend for a long time, so for

them, this process is not fast. They even think I’m a bit. slow!”
Flora’s expression visibly tensed, and she spoke hesitantly, stuttering, “But… but I’m not mentally prepared yet! What should I say when I meet your parents? This thing happened too suddenly! I haven’t even prepared a gift.”
She bombarded him with a series of questions and a disapproving glare, “Why didn’t you mention it earlier so that I could be mentally prepared? Are you trying to scare me?”
Ray looked at Flora, completely bewildered, and smirked, “I called you this morning to discuss this. I remember someone deliberately not picking up the phone and sending me a message saying they were busy…”
Well, he couldn’t be blamed!
Flora felt a pang of guilt and mumbled softly, avoiding eye contact, “I was busy…” Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
Ray raised an eyebrow and chuckled, “I hope so.”
Then he continued, “Anyway, it’s already decided now. If I don’t do as they say, my dad probably won’t let me come home. And we agreed before that we would help each other. Ms. Smith wouldn’t back out at the last minute, right?”
Flora had the urge to back out and run away instantly. But if she said that, Ray would probably strangle her!

Seeing her hesitation, Ray played his trump card, “What are you afraid of? Aren’t we just acting? Why are you taking it so seriously?”
After being confronted with his words, Flora suddenly found them reasonable.
What was there to fear? The relationship was fake!
Once she realized this, she immediately said, “Fine, let’s go! But I’m straightforward when I speak, so if I make your parents unhappy, don’t blame me.”
Seeing her agreement, Ray curled his lips, a hint of triumph. in his eyes, “No worries, my parents are also very
straightforward.”
He opened the car door for her as he spoke, “Let’s go. We’ll pick a gift and head there directly. The timing will be just right.”
Flora didn’t hesitate and climbed into the car through the open door.
After all, Ray’s parents couldn’t eat her!
Soon, the two of them set off to buy a gift.
Aletta returned to the office and found Jason conducting a remote meeting in front of the computer. He spoke fluent French with a standard pronunciation, his deep voice sounding like a pleasant cello melody. Sitting behind the desk with elegance and a stern demeanour that comes with

Jason noticed her presence, slightly lifted his eyelids to glance at her, and gestured for her to sit on the nearby sofa.
Aletta nodded silently, sat on the sofa, and then continued to gaze at him intently.
Aletta’s eyes were filled with admiration.
Jason noticed her unwavering gaze, which distracted him slightly. He would occasionally glance in her direction, and every time he caught sight of Aletta looking at him, she would respond with a smile, putting him in a good mood.
Aletta’s charming, affection-filled smile made Jason’s heart
sway.
He felt like his soul was being captivated by his little fiancée!
The senior executives from the subsidiary company on the other side of the screen couldn’t help but feel puzzled by their CEO’s expressions.
This meeting was convened because there were issues with the project being managed by their side. They were initially worried that the CEO would be furious.
But… looking at the CEO’s expression on the screen, why did he seem so gentle???

The group of people in the meeting trembled, wondering if their eyes were playing tricks on them.
Then, in the next moment, they heard Jason command, “Let’s pause the meeting for now.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he closed the laptop with a loud “snap.”
After the video automatically disconnected, Jason got up, striding toward the person sitting on the sofa with a predatory gaze.
With one finger hooked on his tie, he tugged it slightly and, without waiting for Aletta’s reaction, scooped her up in his arms and walked into the lounge.
“What are you doing?” Aletta exclaimed, instinctively wrapping her arms tightly around his neck. “Aren’t we supposed to continue the meeting?”
Jason, with his long legs, closed the door to the lounge and couldn’t wait any longer. He pressed the person in his arms against the nearby wall and kissed them passionately.
His voice was slightly husky as he said, “When you look at me with those eyes, how can I continue the meeting? Ms. Rogers deliberately tries to confuse people’s hearts.”
“I didn’t…” Aletta instinctively defended herself. “I was admiring you because it was the first time I heard you speak French, and it sounded so beautiful!”
“But in my eyes, it was your silent invitation,” Jason’s tone was low and hoarse. “So you have to take responsibility.”
With that said, his kisses descended once again.
