Albert’s eyes darkened.
Once again, he thought of his useless son, and the nagging wife back home.
Sure, he already had an illegitimate son outside, but what did that have to do with sleeping with a few more women along the way?
In matters like these, once was never the end.
A slow grin crept across Albert’s face as he cleared his throat and said in a low voice, “Lisa, is it just me, or is the air conditioning a bit warm today? Are you feeling hot?”
The secretary, Lisa Flow, flinched slightly.
She immediately understood what he meant.
Feigning confusion, she replied, “It is a little warm. But it was about the same yesterday… maybe the AC’s acting up today?”
As she spoke, she tugged slightly at the neckline of her blouse.
The curve that had already been peeking out was now all but impossible to ignore.
Albert’s eyes practically turned red.
He loved subordinates who could read between the lines.
One sentence from him, and she already knew what he was getting at.
Money really could make the world go round.
Testing loyalty with wealth–nine times out of ten, it worked like a charm.
He didn’t bother being polite.
He reached out and pulled Lisa into his lap.
He was in his fifties, but he kept himself well–groomed, and with power and money at his back, plenty of people were still eager to climb into his bed.
“Lisa, I love how intuitive you are. I don’t even have to spell things out.”
Albert laughed, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes deepening.
Lisa gave a coy little gasp, pretending to panic. “Mr. Hayes, isn’t this a bit dangerous? If your wife finds out, I’m dead.”
Albert let out a cold snort.
“What are you so afraid of? This stays between us. Don’t worry, I’ll make sure you’re well taken care of.”
“I…”
Lisa clutched at his shirt, her expression shy and hesitant, as if caught between resistance and desire.
But inside, she was practically bursting with joy.
She hadn’t expected things to move along this smoothly.
She’d been waiting for days to find the right opportunity.
But with Carol hanging around the office lately, she’d had to play it safe with no chance to make a move.
Today was the first time she’d dared to take the risk.

Everyone only live once–opportunities were meant to be seized.
Only she knew how thrilled she was the moment Albert gave the signal.
Just as everything was falling into place, the office door suddenly rst open with a loud bang.
Lisa let out a sharp scream as the two of them scrambled apart.
But her disheveled clothes and panicked expression didn’t escape race’s eyes.
She raised an eyebrow, a faint smirk tugging at her lips.
Well, wasn’t this interesting.
“Mr. Hayes certainly seems to be in high spirits.”
She’d only come here to deal with a scumbag–who knew she’d walk straight into a live peep show?
Grace strode into the office without hesitation, flanked by her people.
She sat right down on the couch, crossing one leg over the other.
Her designer heels–black with red soles from a top luxury brand stood out instantly.
Anyone else might have been overshadowed by those heels, but Grace’s presence completely dominated the room.
The shoes became an accessory to her power, not the centerpiece.
All eyes were drawn to her the moment she entered.
Albert’s face twisted in frustration and barely hidden lust.
After all, nothing killed the mood faster than being interrupted at just the
