Fatal Love：CEO, please let me go

Damon’s gaze locked onto the man’s back. His eyes darkened and he pursed his lips unhappily.

The car slowly started moving. Ben also saw the familiar figure over there. He subconsciously raised his eyes and looked at Damon through the rearview mirror. “Mr. Yusuf, do you want to stop the car?” he asked hesitantly.

Damon’s expression turned cold as he forcefully shifted his gaze away.

Why would he stop the car? For that woman?

Seeing Damon’s reaction, Ben secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He stepped on the accelerator and sped up.

The car drove past quickly, and not far away, Adele was unaware of the situation in the car.

A delivery man rushed over quickly. Adele lowered her head and did not notice at all.

Seeing that the man was about to hit Adele, Owen suddenly reached out and pulled her away. “Watch out!”

As the world spun, Adele fell into a wide embrace. Just as she stood firm, she heard a gentle male voice beside her ear. “Are you all right?”

She looked up and met that pair of black eyes.

“I am fine.”

She subconsciously took a step back and opened the distance between them. For some reason, she suddenly felt a sense of guilt and nervousness. The face of another man flashed through her mind.

How could she think of Damon at this time?

Adele frowned and wanted to pry open her head to see what was inside. At this moment, Owen’s voice came into her ears, “Adele, are you okay?”

She looked up at Owen and smiled at him embarrassedly, “I… am fine. Let’s go.”.

Because of the limited time to rest at noon, the two simply had a meal in a nearby restaurant. When it was close to work time in the afternoon, Owen gently sent Adele back to the company downstairs.

Before leaving, Owen smiled and said softly, “Today’s meal was a bit rushed. I will make up for it another day.”

“No, I think it’s pretty good.” Adele smiled at him.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

When she was with Owen, his appropriate humor and considerate care made her feel very relaxed.

“Should I come to pick you up at night?” Owen asked with a chuckle.

“There’s no need,” Adele said softly.

Owen did not insist. He raised his hand and naturally rubbed her head. “Alright, then go to work. I’ll watch you leave.” He said softly.

Adele’s heart sank. A strange feeling arose from the bottom of her heart. There had never been a man who treated her like this before. The softness in her heart seemed to be touched. It was like a stone had been thrown into a lake, slowly stirring up ripples.

Looking up at the man in front of her, Adele smiled at him. “Alright, let’s meet again.”

She turned around and walked into the company hall. Before she could take a few steps, she heard the sound of footsteps behind her.

“Adele!”

Adele turned around and saw Shirley running over and winking at her with a smile.

“Who was that handsome guy just now?” Shirley lightly nudged her with her shoulder.

“A… friend.” For some reason, Adele felt a little nervous.

“Really? I thought he was a boyfriend. You look so compatible!” Shirley smiled at her.

“Don’t talk nonsense!” Adele’s face was a little peachy.

The two of them chatted and laughed as they arrived at the department. Before Adele could enter the office, a colleague reminded her, “Ms. Wes, the phone on your desk rang just now.”

“Okay, thank you.”

Adele replied and quickly returned to her office. She flipped through the landline and found that it was a call from the company’s internal line. She glanced at the familiar number. It was a call from the president’s office.

“Hello? I’m Adele from the Administrative Department.”

“Ms. Wes, could you please send me the meeting records for this morning? Mr. Yusuf is waiting for it.” Jane asked calmly.

“Okay, I’ll go now.” Adele quickly agreed.

After hanging up the phone, she looked at the meeting records that had not been sorted out and was a little anxious.

Usually, there was no need to be so anxious about the meeting records. Why had Damon asked her to send it so quickly?

Without much time to think, Adele began to work right way. After hastily tidying up, she did not dare to delay for too long and immediately got up to go to the president’s office.

When she reached the door, Adele took a deep breath, raised her hand, and knocked on the door. When she heard the sound inside, she pushed the door open and entered.

Seeing that Damon was in the middle of signing documents, Adele stepped forward and handed over the meeting records in a businesslike manner. “Mr. Yusuf, this is the meeting record you wanted.”

She placed the record at the corner of the table, but the man who was flipping through the documents with his head lowered did not react at all. Adele stood at the table and did not dare to leave without permission, so she could only wait.

Finally, the man raised his hand and signed his name on the last page of the document. Only then did he slowly put down the pen and look up at her.

His eyes were clear and cold, and his gaze was deep, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking. Even her courage to look at him was insufficient.

Adele took a deep breath, lowered her gaze, and said softly, “This is the meeting record.”

Damon picked it up casually, flipped through a few pages, and frowned. “This is the meeting record you made?”

“Is there a problem?” Adele took a deep breath and looked up at him.

Damon put down the record and his face darkened. Just as he was about to speak, his gaze swept past the woman at the table and suddenly stopped at her knee.

A cold light flashed through his eyes. Damon looked up and stared at Adele. “There are too many problems. Which one do you want to hear?” he asked.

Adele was stunned and did not understand what he meant. “What?” she asked.

Without a word, Damon suddenly stood up and walked towards her, approaching her directly.

The distance between the two of them suddenly shortened. Adele felt weak from the bottom of her heart. She did not dare to step back or look him in the eye. She could only look at the man’s throat and nervously swallow a mouthful of saliva.

“The first question, why didn’t you deal with the knee injury?” the man asked.

Hearing his question, Adele was a little surprised. She looked up at the man’s dark eyes and did not know how to answer for a moment. “I…”

The wound on her leg was a bruise caused by the fall during the meeting today. There were red and purple marks on her knees, but it was not broken. It was not serious. In addition, she had been busy and did not have time to deal with it.

Looking at the woman’s clear eyes, Damon thought of the scene of her walking side by side with another man at the company entrance at noon, and his heart suddenly became a little agitated.

He reached out, grabbed the woman’s wrist, and pulled her directly to the sofa next to him.

“What… what are you doing?” Adele suddenly panicked a little.

This was the office, and he had actually made a move on her. What if someone saw him?

She tried to break free, but the difference in strength between men and women was too great. She was pulled to the side of the sofa by him. Her shoulders sank and she was pressed down to sit down.

“Don’t move.”

The simple words had an invisible deterrent force. Adele froze and did not dare to move.

Damon sat down beside her and reached out to grab her ankle, lifting her leg up…

“You… What are you doing?” Adele’s body went numb.
