Hearing this, something stirred in Micah's heart. His fingers continued to tap on the keyboard, yet his gaze was smoldering as it fixed on her, "Worried about me?" Realizing she'd said too much, Sadie's face flushed red, biting her lower lip, she dared not speak.

Seeing her shy demeanor, Micah felt a tug at his heartstrings and nudged her calf with his foot under the table, "Come here!"

"What..." Sadie glanced at him timidly, quickly averting her eyes, her heartbeat racing.

"Quickly," Micah commanded, a note of superiority in his voice.

Hesitantly, Sadie edged closer to him. A distance of just a few steps felt as vast as thousands of miles, and for a long moment, she struggled to cover it...

Andrew was in agonizing frustration. At this critical juncture, these two were still playing a game of flirtation?

Micah suddenly pulled her into his arms causing Sadie to let out a startled cry.

Sadie tumbled into his lap, her body quivering delicately, about to resist when he commanded in a low voice, "Don't move," and then continued typing, his arms wrapped around her slender waist. Sadie didn't dare to move again...

The future of a multi-billion-dollar project, the fate of a corporation, all lay in the control of her delicate waist. If she were to act carelessly now, wouldn't that be like disrupting the rotation of the Earth? An utter abomination!

Andrew rolled his eyes in exasperation, his fists clenched, itching with frustration...

In this moment, he thought of Mr. Wood, who had been taking laxatives for four days straight, and suddenly he understood the old man's feelings of frustration and anger...

Warriors slaying enemies on the battlefield, blood splattering the sands.

Yet here was Mr. Clemens, ruling supreme, caught up in a passionate embrace with a beautiful woman...

No one dared to question Mr. Clemens's abilities, firm in their belief that he would surely triumph.

But who could understand that agonizing urgency, burning like fire?

"Let me go, deal with this properly. At such a critical time, how can you..." Sadie gently pushed against Micah.

The computer screen flickered with dense green code, while the tablet beside it showed a live stream of the press conference taking place on the 66th floor...

Mr. Wood had finished introducing Mr. Clemens and now began to explain the features of the new product...

The beleaguered old man was struggling to continue stalling as he wiped sweat away; desperately hoping that Mr. Clemens would get the system sorted out soon and allow the new product to be successfully launched officially. Micah, with his eyes fixed on the screen and hands on the keyboard, brushed his chin ever so slightly against Sadie's shoulder.

Sadie wanted to move but didn't dare; she wanted to push him away but couldn't bring herself to do it.

She felt like the wicked witch, tempting the king into sin, divested of any will to govern the kingdoms...

Andrew's heart was racing, he almost wanted to dash over and drag Sadie away, yet he couldn't bring himself to do it. Suddenly, there was a crash from outside.

"Someone's broken in again," said Andrew, turning around alertly.

"Cover me!" Micah didn't even lift his eyelids as he spoke, seizing the opportunity to nip Sadie's shoulder. Sadie cried out, "What are you doing?"

Andrew's face twitched, but all he could do was grab the golf club nearby and go out to face the confrontation...

Opening the door, several assassins barged in with knives, and Andrew fought back fiercely clenching his teeth.

"Let go of me, I need to help," Sadie, seeing Andrew's bleeding wound, felt a surge of guilt and tried to push Micah away to do something...

But Micah held her even tighter, his cold, thin lips softly grazing her collarbone, his hands still maneuvering the computer.

Sadie was frantic: "Stop fooling around, it's a critical moment, everyone is depending on you... Ah!"

Her sentence was cut short as she gasped again, her body trembling.

Hearing this cry, Andrew, who was fighting at the entrance, shuddered and took a blade...
