A Love Trap
Chapter 799 A Carefree President

Chloe rolled her eyes and stared at Derrick with a blank expression on her face.

'Did he pick up those drawings?' Chloe had a hard time believing it.

Derrick didn't say anything more. In fact, Ashley had had him keep an eye on Sarah the moment she took over this company. It made sense that Derrick found these design drawings in Sarah's office.

Chloe glanced at her watch and told Derrick, "Well, I have something to deal with, so I'm leaving now. Keep working hard, better believe that you'll be rewarded."

Chloe even patted him on the shoulder as she took her leave.

While listening to Chloe, the corners of Derrick's mouth twitched a little. At last his eyes rested upon her as he asked, "Are you really leaving right now?"

"Yes. Why should I still be here?" Chloe asked back.

Looking at her receding figure, Derrick had a strong feeling that she deliberately came here only for that woman, Sarah.

As Chloe walked out of the office door, Derrick held his chin with one hand and gave an ambiguous smile.

After Chloe left the building, she went straight to Nolan's office instead of going back home directly.

Going to Nolan's office really had no appeal on her. In all honesty, she didn't even know why went there.

Upon entering the building, Chloe was stopped at the front desk.

The receptionist looked at Chloe from head to toe as impatience crept onto her face. Without any doubt, she had taken Chloe as another one who wanted to seduce the president with her beauty and sexuality.

At first, the receptionist had her usual courteous smile while talking with Chloe in a very kind manner. Chloe didn't seem to be an ordinary woman considering her branded clothes and pristine make-up. Offending some powerful person wasn't in the receptionist's goals, even if she had no idea who Chloe was.

But Chloe failed to answer any of her questions. At that time, Chloe's gorgeous face and voluptuous figure even convinced the receptionist that she was never an honest woman. Contemptuously, she suggested, "I'll advise you to just be honest with me here. Do you think you're qualified to visit our president? Please think about your answer carefully. If all our clients are like you, you can imagine how busy we will be."

Hearing what the girl at the front desk said, Chloe arched her eyebrows and asked an irrelevant question. "So your president has a lot of women who visit him every day, is that correct?"

"Of course. If you know how he is."

The receptionist haughtily raised her chin while looking at Chloe.

Without a word, Chloe gave an ambiguous smile and left the front desk.

Chloe didn't frequently come to Nolan's company. And for the few times that she had done so, she was always well-protected by Nolan.

That was to say, no one in the company had seen Chloe's face before. So it was quite understandable that the receptionist had no idea who she was.

Chloe just walked towards a chair beside the front desk and sat down. Ignoring the expression in the receptionist's eyes, she just sat nearby and made a phone call. "I'm currently at your company's lobby. I'm not allowed to go up." The moment she finished her sentence, the man on the other side immediately hung up the phone.

'What?' That was the only thing on Chloe's mind.

Hearing the "beep" sound from the other side of the phone, Chloe was confused. She then took the phone off her ear and looked at it.

'What happened?

Was the signal bad?

Or did he hang up the phone on her?"

Chloe felt a fit of rage begin to rise in her heart.

Everyone would feel bad if the person they were talking to hung up before they could finish what they were saying. Just as she was about to leave, she heard a commotion not far from her.

It wasn't such a big deal. Therefore, the people nearby just stared and didn't approach the turmoil. Although, they actually wanted to check it out more closely.

Chloe also took a glance and looked away.

It was none of her business.

As soon as Nolan walked out of the elevator, he looked around, trying to replace Chloe. Just when his eyes landed on her, she was standing up from the sofa, preparing to head outside. There she was!

Nolan strode over and grabbed her hand.

Chloe was about to leave but her hand was suddenly grabbed by someone with large hands. Feeling uncomfortable, she exerted her strength, trying to get rid of the grip.

How could someone dare to flirt with her? Chloe was extremely irritated and enraged.

'Does this person want to die?' She silently asked herself.

Then, Chloe threw a rigid look at the person and found Noah's clear, kind eyes.

"You want to leave?" Nolan asked while his eyes were fixed on her.

It seemed like he would do something unimaginable as long as Chloe said no to him.

Chloe tried to free her hand from his hold but failed.

Upon hearing what he said, she rolled her eyes and retorted back, "I was calling someone just now, but he hung up the phone without a word. What else could I do besides leave? Why should I stay here? To have fun?" Persuading Chloe was not Nolan's plan. He was never a man with a sweet tongue. Moreover, Chloe was adept at words as a novelist, he was no match for her in this respect.

He just held her hand tightly and said, "Let's go up."

"Let go of me. I don't want to go upstairs right now. I have to go home," Chloe replied.

This had been a daily routine for Chloe and Nolan. There were endless trivial matters between them even if they didn't have anything to argue about.

"Are you sure?" Nolan stared at her a little closer.

"Yes, exactly! Hey, hey, what are you doing? Let me go."

Before she could say anything more, however, Nolan, who was standing upright, suddenly lifted her and carried her in his arms, bridal style and headed for the elevator. "Wow!"

Some employees in the hall audibly gasped.

Wasn't that man their president?

But just now, he was holding a woman in his arms. And if they were not mistaken, that woman wasn't happy about it. But he ignored her and took her away without saying anything. How manly!

The receptionist who had just spoken to Chloe was completely shocked at what she just saw. Remembering what she had said to Chloe just now only sent chills down her spine.00000000☐☐☐☐
