Chapter 348: Visiting Emanuele’s Office
Isabella knew that Evelyn, just like her, was an independent person. After her last job was terminated by William, she had been without work until now. For Evelyn, work was a way to enrich her life. Without work, Evelyn found life somewhat boring and she wanted to earn her own money. Isabella and Evelyn chatted for a while and then went their separate ways.
Before leaving, Isabella thought about Lilly walking off with that man earlier and found it quite strange. Why did Lilly appear so afraid of that man?
After parting ways with Evelyn, Isabella didn’t really want to return to the apartment. Going back there, she would surely be left to entertain herself. Men like Tony and Harry simply didn’t understand her.NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
Deciding firmly, Isabella went to find Emanuele in his office, thinking she could ride home with him later. Emanuele had been quite busy lately, but he almost returned to the apartment every day. However, often he returned too late, and Isabella was already asleep.
Today, Isabella went to find Emanuele. Soon, the car stopped in front of the magnificent office building. After entering, she took the elevator to Emanuele’s office. As soon as she entered, she saw Emanuele looking at documents. When he heard movement, he looked up, and upon seeing Isabella, his eyes held a hint of surprise.
“Isabella, what brings you here?” Emanuele said.
“Thought I’d see how you work,” Isabella said with a smile.
Before Isabella could approach, Emanuele stood up and quickly walked towards her, reaching out to embrace her.
“Darling, thank you for coming to visit me,” Emanuele looked very pleased. He then asked Phillip, “Phillip, get Isabella a glass of juice.”
“Sure,” Phillip said, heading to the pantry.
Emanuele took Isabella’s hand, which was much smaller than his. Holding it lightly, he could easily envelop it. Her bones were much more delicate than his, and her hand was soft. Emanuele then brought Isabella to her desk and hugged her from behind, enveloping her in his embrace. The man’s presence surrounded Isabella, making her feel warmth and strong affection.
His presence was simply too intense to be ignored. Emanuele then asked Isabella, “How about helping me look over these documents?”
Looking at the dense text on the desk, Isabella felt a headache. “Are you kidding me?” she said to Emanuele.
“Isabella, as long as you like, I can let you take control of this company. You didn’t want to work at the hospital, right? Why not work at my company? You can have any position you want,” Emanuele said casually.
Although Emanuele spoke so nonchalantly, Isabella felt it wasn’t right. She could work at Emanuele’s company, but if he randomly assigned her a great position, how would the others in the company view her? They might think she got the position solely because she was the boss’s wife. Thinking about this made Isabella feel she couldn’t just enter the company so casually. If she really wanted to work, she had to go through the formal procedure. However, she thought she could consider it. Since she wasn’t working at the hospital now, she could consider changing careers.
Emanuele, observing Isabella’s interest in the documents on his desk, knew she was a particularly enterprising person. Although she seemed indifferent to losing her job, Emanuele knew that Isabella still cared to some extent. It was just that, because of marrying him, the current her was the esteemed wife of the Mafia, and many things she had to be forced to stop.
Thinking about this, Emanuele sat in his chair and pulled Isabella onto his lap. Just then, Phillip came in with the juice, saw Emanuele holding Isabella, and commented, “Madam, don’t be shy. I haven’t seen anything.”
After Phillip left, Isabella lifted her head from Emanuele’s embrace and lightly pounded his chest. “It’s all your fault. The office is still a public place, and our actions are too conspicuous.”
She looked at the office door, concerned about the possibility of someone coming in. Emanuele assured her, “Rest assured, apart from Phillip and James, no one will just come in. How can I, as the CEO, not control them?”
Emanuele then hugged Isabella and gently caressed her cheek. Isabella’s skin was very smooth, and compared to her, Emanuele felt he was too rough. Seeing Emanuele’s affectionate gaze, Isabella couldn’t help but smile and then kissed him. With that kiss, Emanuele’s restraint began to wane, and the thought of engulfing Isabella began to form in his mind.
“Isabella, you’ve provoked me, and you’re going to have to take responsibility,” Emanuele said, lowering his head to kiss Isabella’s lips. Unlike the simple kiss they had shared earlier, Emanuele’s kiss now was fierce and urgent, like a hungry, wild animal. Isabella felt compelled to endure his passionate kiss, feeling the intensity of this man. At that moment, she felt like a dessert, allowing Emanuele to savor her.
Emanuele held Isabella tightly in his arms. The weather was warm, and their clothes were thin. Isabella could feel Emanuele’s strong chest muscles, a sensation of heat even through the fabric. His pheromones engulfed her, making her feel defenseless. His hands roamed over her chest, and Isabella couldn’t help but moan.
