Bride Behind the Mask novel Chapter 223

"Let me take a good look at what peculiar ideas you've got hidden in your little head."

Miley propped herself up against Robert's chest, her face flushed with shyness. "It won't be that easy for you to see it all, Mr. Fitzgerald. I have some serious matters to discuss."

Robert let go of Miley, but not before giving her bottom a playful pat. "Since I'm in a good mood, go ahead and tell me."

Miley waved Marguerite's broken phone in front of him. "My bestie's phone is broken and she wants to recover her photos. Can you think of a solution?"

If she didn't mention it, he had almost forgotten the purpose of his visit.

He glanced at the phone screen, his heart filled with delight.

A woman's phone holds her biggest secrets, and he wanted to investigate Miley's bestie. This was undoubtedly the perfect opportunity!

Robert fetched a bottle of soda from the refrigerator, took a few gulps, and then deliberately said, "I suspect you're sleeping with me just for your bestie. First, it was to recover photos, now it's to fix a phone. What will you want me to do next?"

Miley pouted and leaned into his arms, looking charmingly coy. "Next time... what do you think? What do you want me to do?"

Dammit!

Was this woman trying to seduce him with her cuteness?

If it weren't for Frederick calling him back to the office, he would have lost control yet again.

He plucked the broken phone from Miley's hand, leaned in and whispered in her ear, "What do I want you to do? I'd love to die in your arms, honey."

With that, he smirked, gave her cheek a playful pinch, then reluctantly headed towards the door. "Give me a couple of days. No rush."

In the afternoon, at the Winston Group.

After leaving Miley's apartment, Marguerite returned to the mansion. She had not been together with her grandmother for days due to work.

So, she went back to have lunch with her.

However, when she returned to the office after the meal, she found the company in chaos.

Employees were running around anxiously with documents, their frantic voices filled with urgency.

"Neal, get in touch with the PR company ASAP!"
