SWNOVELS Chapter 615
In the end, Lucy yielded to Matthew's insistence.
Just then, a voice called out, "Mr. Xender!"
Hudson turned to see Lacee approaching him.
He frowned in confusion as he asked, "Why are you still here?"
Lacee walked up to him and said while sulking, "I've been working non-stop for the Hype and Elegance Fashion Show, and I haven't had a good night's sleep in days. Can't you show a little more sympathy, Mr. Xender?" Lucy, Matthew, and Koven, who were still in the office, listened in silence, not daring to make a sound.
The most uncomfortable among them all was Koven as he was struggling to contain his laughter.
Hudson replied seriously, "As important as the fashion show is, you still need to take care of your health. You should go home!"
"Oh, Mr. Xender, can't you at least send me home? My place is so far from here!" Lacee said, placing her hand on Hudson's shoulder while swaying her body.
Hudson's expression turned completely grim upon hearing that.
Meanwhile, Koven could not hold back his laughter any longer, so he burst out laughing. "Come on, Hudson, send her home. Don't let her down! Hahaha..."
Hearing the voices inside the office, Lacee pushed the door open, only to discover the presence of the industry's leading fashion designer, Koven, the CEO of Leon Corporation, Matthew, and of course, Lucy. Her face immediately turned red, but she composed herself and tidied her hair before walking inside.
"Wow, are you Mr. Leon, the CEO of Leon Corporation? Mr. Koven, you're here too!"
Upon seeing Hudson, Koven, and Matthew, Lacee naturally understood who held the most status and power among them. After sizing them up, she immediately headed toward
vel
Matthew, completely ignoring Lucy's
presence.
Seeing her come closer, Matthew displayed clear disgust and annoyance before glancing at Lucy.
Only then did he notice Lucy standing there, smiling like a fool. She was seemingly unconcerned that another woman was hitting on her husband.
"Ms. Lacee, may I help you?" Matthew's tone was cold, but his upbringing compelled him to speak respectfully.
Seeing as Matthew was willing to
with
engage Lacee felt a rush of
happiness and immediately
responded, "I've seen you a lot on
television, Mr. Leon. I've always been
amazed at your charisma, but
didn't expect you to be this flawless in person."
Lacee cast him a flirtatious look.
Watching from behind, Hudson's expression turned even grimmer. However, he knew that Matthew would not let Lacee get away with this.
He was aware of Lacee's flirtatious behavior in the office, but he did not expect her to go after Matthew. If it were not for her talent in fashion design, he would have fired her long ago... Koven, on the other hand, continued to watch the scene unfold with a look of amusement. He kept glancing back and forth between Lucy and Matthew to see their reactions. With a scoff, Matthew turned to Hudson.
"Mr. Xender, are you aware of how
your employees cross the lines in the office? Even with my wife
standing next to me, she darestet
flirt with me." Matthew's patience with Lacee was clearly wearing thin.

"Didn't you hear that, Lacee? Why don't you go home?" Hudson chuckled at Matthew's remark before shooting Lacee a cold look. Lacee's expression instantly sank upon hearing Matthew's comment, and she shifted her gaze to Lucy, who was smiling carefreely.
