NovelAppChapter 141 Chloe briskly stepped into the elevator, her heart racing with anticipation. Before long, she found herself outside the CEO's office. The outer office was the secretary's domain and was usually a hive of activity, but today, it was even more animated.
Chloe thought she heard Lisa's voice amidst the commotion but didn't linger. She headed straight to Connor's office. Connor was engrossed in his laptop, his expression all business. But the moment he saw Chloe, his eyes brightened noticeably. He stood up, walked over, and wrapped his arms around her waist, leaning in for a kiss. His voice was tinged with joy and surprise. "What brings you here?" Chloe grinned, "Just here to mooch slunch." Connor pretended to be offended. "Couldn't you say you missed me?" "Fine, I missed you," she teased.

Chloe rolled her eyes. "Connor!" she mock-scolded.
Connor quickly relented, "Just kidding. You gracedwith your presence, and I'd be a fool not to cherish it." He kissed her gently on the lips again. "Givea few minutes. I'm almost done." That was when Chloe realized Connor was in the middle of a video conference. Had their playful exchange been overheard? The thought was mortifying, but her embarrassment was fleeting. She composed herself and took a seat on the sofa to wait for Connor.
Today's video conference was a massive company-wide meeting. On the other end, nearly ten thousand employees from Sartori Corporation were connected. The sudden departure of their CEO had caused quite a stir, and everyone had heard the interaction clearly. The rumors about the CEO's girlfriend seemed true.
It wasn't surprising for Connor to have a girlfriend, but the usually icy and ruthless Mr. Connor in such a light was a shock. Was he... being flirty? Connor was known in the business world for his cold demeanor and ruthless decisions, as untouchable as the Moon. Yet here he was, showing a tender, playful, even childish side. The image of the aloof Mr. Connor was completely shattered in the hearts of many.
Five minutes later, Connor closed his laptop. "What do you want for lunch?" Chloe replied, “Let's just have the food the cafeteria sent over. I'm not in the mood to go out." Connor usually had lunch specially prepared by the company's cafeteria and delivered by senior staff. Chloe had tried it a few times and found the food exceptionally good, even rivaling Michelin three-star restaurants. Connor raised an eyebrow. "That works. If we went out, we wouldn't have tfor a nap." From the look on Connor's face, Chloe knew exactly what he was thinking. Their nights were almost always spent with crazed passion, and Chloe felt she couldn't keep up. She definitely didn't want to expend her energy in the middle of the day.
