Gluey Love Between Us

Chapter 14

The morning sunlight shone through the French windows into the apartment.

The honking sounds from morning heavy traffic were extremely noisy.

Eden slowly opened her eyes and quickly grabbed her phone to take a look at the time.

It was exactly eight o'clock in the morning. She was not late yet.

She never lazed around in bed. Instead, she would wake up when it was time.

She quickly got down from the bed and walked to the bathroom.

After her morning routine, she put on light makeup but applied a bold, red lipstick.

She had great skin, and she looked even more beautiful and charming with just light makeup.

She changed into her formal clothes. The white shirt and black pencil skirt revealed her fine curves.

Eden grabbed her shiny, black leather handbag and the necessary documents for today's meeting. She then put on her eight-centimeter black high heels.

She looked mature, reserved, and professional aura.

She smiled confidently, opened the door, and walked out the door. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

The headquarters of Alwynn Group had a total of twenty-five floors.

The company had already made arrangements for her.

She entered the building and went to the front desk to get her access card. After she clocked in, she went into the elevator and pressed the button that led to the twenty-fifth floor, where the meeting

room was located.

The position that she was taking over belonged to Marianne Oakley, the design director of the headquarters.

Her only responsibility at the headquarters was designing. She did not have to take part in anything else.

The elevator that she was taking was limited to high-level executives only.

When the elevator doors were about to close, they reopened again. A woman in a white dress walked in. The slim woman wore delicate makeup. She looked dignified and beautiful.

Eden smiled politely at the woman.

The woman glanced at Eden scornfully and then looked down at her phone.

Eden was not bothered by her behaviour. Anyone who could take the elevator was a high-level executive.

She would only be working here for a month, and she would return to Gate City after this. It was beneficial for her to maintain good interpersonal relationships here.

They arrived on the twenty-fifth floor in silence. The woman was using her phone the entire time.

The twenty-fifth floor was luxuriously furnished.

There were two pots of Zanzibar Gem plants at the entrance.

The woman in white walked out of the elevator before Eden.

And she straightaway walked toward the chairman's office.

Eden did not pay any attention to it. She walked toward the secretary, who was doing preparation work.

The secretary of Alwynn Group's chairman was a very handsome man.

Victor Alwynn had hired female secretaries before, but all of them had developed romantic feelings for him. Victor had no choice but to hire his best friend as his secretary.

When the woman in white walked straight toward the office, the secretary, Lucian Ronen, quickly stopped her. "Miss Clement, where are you going?"

Lucian was tall and handsome. He wore a white shirt and a pair of perfectly-ironed black trousers. With his short hair and a pair of unswerving yet sharp eyes, he certainly did not look like a person to be trifled with, although he appeared refined and gentle.

Haven Clement looked up at Lucian and asked in confusion, "Secretary Ronen, I'm here to see Victor. Why are you stopping me?" Haven's voice was very soft, and she had a gentle smile on her face.

Lucian frowned and said, "Miss Clement, Mr. Alwynn is preparing for a meeting. He can't meet anyone else right now."

Lucian obviously refused to make any exception for Haven.

Haven frowned unhappily.

She looked at Lucian coldly and her words became harsher. "Secretary Ronen, take note of your attitude. I am the future wife of the chairman."

Lucian laughed. His eyes were filled with disdain as he said with mockery, "You can say that again on the day you become the chairman's wife."
