Chapter 299: Familiar box of chocolates.
“Did I sweet talk?” Aiden asked, pretending to not understand what she was referring to. And seeing him making it clearly difficult for her, Arwen didn’t know what she should say.
It must be really fun for him, given how he often plays that trick to her. Emyr stayed silent for a long while, almost making his presence invisible.
But when he felt the phone vibrating in his hand again, he slowly asked again, “Madam, so what do you suggest about the Tanner Group?” Arwen turned back to him and eyed him as if asking if he was truly serious.
“Are you really asking me that, Mr.
Ethan?” Emyr wanted to scream and tell, how can he not, when it was his boss who clearly stated it to him.
Furthermore, it only seemed that the lady was unaware of the command she held over his boss.
Otherwise, given how easily everything related to her stirred his boss’s mood, it wasn’t that hard to tell. Up until now, everyone in the company already knows about it too.
After all, who else could make their workaholic boss return home on time other than his wife?
The Supremacy of the Lady Boss was beyond everyone’s imagination. “Madam, I am merely an employee working under the boss.
Neither do I have the authority nor I am capable of making such decisions.
I can only follow the orders,” he said, keeping his gaze down.
And Arwen understood what he meant.
Sighing, she gently massaged her forehead before saying, “Of course, you don’t have to do anything.
They didn’t offend me.
So, kindly, continue with the deal and earn good returns.” Emyr heaved a sigh of relief and then quickly nodded to the lady. Arwen internally shook her head and then turned to look at the man who was the one responsible.
“And you, Mr.
Winslow,” she said, “in future, don’t try to sweet talk much.
If I find any other woman fighting me over you, I will not hold that woman responsible.
It will be you.
So, you better know the risk before acting on it.” Saying that, she pushed her chair back and stood up to leave.
But Aiden grabbed her hand, halting her.
When she turned to glance at him, he stared straight into her eyes and said, “You shouldn’t be interested in the battles where your win is inevitable.” She didn’t understand what he meant.
Furrowing her brow in confusion, she asked, “What do you mean?” Aiden smirked and let go of her hand.
Leaning back in the chair, he answered without any qualms.
“I meant I have already signed myself to you.
No one else has the chance anymore.” Arwen was once again speechless… While Emyr… suddenly he felt like all these years of accompaniment was useless.
Even in his dream, it was impossible for him to imagine his boss to be a fawner like this.
If the board members saw him like this, would they even recognize him? Before he could hold back, a dramatic sob which should have been inaudible, escaped Emyr’s lips.

And he wanted to slap himself for it. But it was already too late for him.
Arwen had already turned to look his way while his boss’s gaze which was so tender seconds before had turned frosty at him.
“Ah… I am sorry, Madam.
I didn’t mean to.
It’s just that I suddenly feel it would have been so good if I… I had someone as sir as well.
Sigh, I never had a girlfriend before” he blabbered, trying to escape death. But little did he know that he only made it worse with his words. “Girlfriend?” Arwen repeated before pointing at Aiden.
“You want him as your girlfriend?
You mean you want to fight me over him?” She asked, holding back a laugh that was on the verge of slipping out.
Emyr almost choked.
If gazes could kill, by now his body must have been lying cold on the floor, given the murderous glare his boss was sending his way.
It felt like freezing his blood already. Shaking his head, he quickly denied it, almost getting down on his knees.
“I €¦ how can I, Madam?
You misunderstood me.
I was… I was…” Arwen couldn’t hold back her laughter anymore.
Chuckling, she said, “Okay, okay, Mr.
Ethan.
I know what you meant.
I was just teasing you.
Don’t look like you are about to die.” Emyr wanted to cry.
If she hadn’t said that, he was really about to die.
Wiping the sweat off his forehead, he pulled his lips in a smile.
“It’s my fault.
I chose the wrong words.
I should have been cautious.” “It’s fine,” Arwen said again.
And then turning to Aiden, she added, “At least, I got the chance to tease someone here.
Otherwise, with your boss, it’s almost impossible.” “Now, you two can continue with your business,” she said, adding for Aiden, “I will go back to the room and pick out something for you.
I am sure you would want to change before leaving for the office.” She then eyed down at his dress pants which had the stain of juice evident on it. Aiden nodded and she smiled before leaving. Once she was gone, Aiden turned to Emyr and asked, without any trace of humor in his tone.
“Do you want to go back and learn to speak?” Emyr quickly shook his head.
“I am sorry, sir.
I will learn on my own, and won’t give you another chance to complain.” Aiden didn’t affirm his words, rather he stood up.
“You can ask Neil to get the car ready.
We will leave soon.” With that, he turned and sauntered away as well. Meanwhile, back in the room, after picking a set of office wear for Aiden, Arwen returned back to the bed.
Sitting on her side, she pulled the drawer, before taking out the familiar box of chocolate. Just the sight of it, made her lips curl.
“It’s time to have one,” she mumbled to herself as she opened the box and picked one wrapped ball from the middle.
Unwrapping it, she was about to put it into her mouth when her movements halted seeing the door of the room pushed open.
