She Became Rich After Divorce (Cheyenne and Kelvin) novel Chapter 449

Chapter 449: You Enjoy Working?

After finishing the tasks at hand, Kelvin lightly raised his eyebrows and curved his lips, showing that he was in a good mood. When his assistant Chris came to inform him that Cheyenne was here to see him, a radiant smile broke through his handsome and cold facade.

Kelvin quickly adjusted his tie, using his large hand to smooth out any wrinkles on his clothes. He deliberately glanced at the silhouette outside the window.

"How do I look in this outfit? Does the color seem too dull? Should I change my shirt?"

He was wearing a black cotton shirt from Armani, accompanied by a black suit with a subtly luxurious texture. The tie was a bright red color with polka dots, adding a touch of vibrancy to the subdued attire.

Chris stared in astonishment at the series of unusual actions by his boss, his jaw almost dropping. He struggled to respond with his stammering voice. Internally, he felt the urge to burst into laughter.

"N-No... there's no need to change. Actually, it's already too late. Miss Lawrence is waiting near the office..."

Before Chris could finish his sentence, Kelvin's voice turned icy as he began to scold. "Why didn't you say so earlier? Damn it, you let her stand outside the door waiting for me?"

After his reprimand, Kelvin stood up and walked quickly towards the door from behind his seat. However, just as his large hand reached for the doorknob, he paused. He suddenly realized that his smile wasn't quite appropriate.

During that split second while opening the door, his expression returned to his usual aloofness. Yet, when he saw the woman standing in front of him, looking pitiful and disheveled like a wet little puppy, a worried expression involuntarily appeared on his face.

"Cheyenne, why did you...?"

"It's raining outside, why didn't you bring an umbrella? You're completely drenched. Come in quickly!"

His warm and solid hand suddenly grabbed her cold and delicate hand. Angrily, he pulled her into his office and made her sit on the couch.

Cheyenne had actually come by taxi, but she couldn't withstand the heavy rain. At the moment, her white lace nightgown, which she had worn before leaving, was wet and clinging to her body. Her chestnut, lustrous hair was like a waterfall, sticking to her pale and delicate face, shoulders, and back, giving her an enchanting appearance like a mesmerizing water nymph on a rainy night.

As he thought about her coming to see him in such a state, knowing that countless people must have seen her like this along the way, his face involuntarily darkened.

His cold gaze shifted towards Chris, who was still standing by the door, wearing a silly smile while watching the two people on the couch.

Resting his chin on his hand, Chris secretly thought, 'A match made in heaven, right? Watching them sitting together feels like watching a romantic drama.'

Just then, Kelvin's dissatisfied voice rang in his ears, and the sharpness in his eyes made Chris' scalp tingle.

"Aren't you leaving? Do you enjoy working here?"

Chris almost choked on his saliva. He coughed a few times before responding, "Mr. Foley, are you... are you saying I can leave? Can I go now?"

Originally, his plan was to work overtime today and earn back the two thousand dollars he had lost. Unexpectedly, his boss generously allowed him to leave early.

'Oh my goodness! Miss Lawrence is my lucky star.'

Kelvin didn't bother responding to his foolish question. With a cold nod, he grabbed two cups and walked over to the automatic water dispenser.

Chris licked his lips and let out a suggestive chuckle.

He turned on his heel and walked towards the door, his voice echoing in the space and reaching Cheyenne's ears.

"I got it, I got it. I won't be a third wheel here anymore."
