“Wait.”
Sophia’s steps halted. She tightened her fists and scolded Bryan in her mind.
‘Why this man can’t let me take a breath peacefully?’
She slowly turned around to look at him. “Yes, Alpha?”
“Make me a cup of coffee.”
Sophia exhaled a breath of relief. She almost thought that he would say or do something unexpected. It was her fortune that he did not say anything about that matter, which she wanted to escape and only ordered her a cup of coffee.
“Okay, Alpha.”
After saying that, she left the cabin.
As she stepped out of the cabin, she noticed other employees peering into the room. She frowned at them and asked,
“What are you all doing here?”
They immediately rushed to their desks after saying that they were only trying to see if Alpha was in the right mood.
“Why did you say that?” Sophia questioned one of the employees.
The employee looked scared as he replied,
“He was furious the last day. I have heard from some employees in the management department that Alpha wanted to fire you because of something you did. I am curious to know if you really did something that enraged him that day.”
Sophia could see interest in the employee’s eyes. The man was young, and his tone was polite too. But she was unclear about the intention behind his question.
“If he wanted to fire me, then do you really think I have the power to continue working here?” Sophia asked with a blank face.
She was already exhausted. She could not sleep last night, and after talking with Bryan and solving the problem about her brother, she felt her mind and head both start to stop working. They wanted to take some rest, which she would not get today since she had just returned to her job.
“Sorry if I offended you. I was just asking if the rumors are true.”
Sophia shrugged her shoulders and began to walk past the employee.
She let out a loud tone so that others could hear her as well. She had other things to do, so she could not respond to each and every one of them individually.
“If any one of you has any questions, you can ask Alpha Bryan directly. All I can say is, don’t believe in just anyone. A new trainee can yearn for attention by spreading false rumors. I’m not resigning from this company, nor did Alpha want to fire me.”
Her voice was clear and sharp. Everyone moved their heads away from her and turned their attention to the papers on their desks. They realized that Secretary Sophia was mad today.
As she made her way to the coffee machine, Sophia brewed a cup of coffee.
While Sophia passed a few women who talked rubbish about her a few days ago, they lowered their heads when they noticed her.
She paid no attention to them and returned to Bryan’s office.
The moment she opened the door, she found no one on the desk. She closed the door behind her and walked inside.
“Alpha? Where are you?”
She looked around the massive office room, only to find Bryan sitting on one of the couches.
He was using his phone while leaning his back against the couch. He did not turn to reply to her first questions.
“Here is your coffee, Alpha,” she said, walking to the couches.
As she put down the coffee on the coffee table in front of the couches, she stepped back.
Bryan locked the phone and placed it on the coffee table next to the coffee mug.
He then raised his head to look at her and said,
“Come here.”
“W-What?” Sophia asked with a nervous tone.
He gestured with his fingers for her to approach him.
“I asked you to come here.”
Sophia was taken aback by his order. Why was he calling her to him? Did she make some mistakes?
She cast a quick glance in the direction of the coffee mug, which Bryan had not even touched yet.
Why did she have the feeling that he would reprimand her for something?
With slow steps, she made her way to him.
“Yes?” she asked as she returned her gaze to him.
He did not reply to her, which made her feel more nervous. What was it about him that made her feel such dread?
What was the reason for this? Was it because he was capable of doing anything? Or was it his personality that made him so intimidating that anyone could be afraid of him?
Without any warning, Bryan grabbed her wrist and pulled her toward him.
The yank caused her to let out a gasp. She was shocked when her legs disbalanced, and she could not keep her body from falling forward.
Her eyes widened when she landed on his lap.
Bryan wrapped his hands around her waist and looked at her.
Upon realizing what he was referring to when he said, “Come here,” Sophia’s jaw dropped.
She turned her gaze away from him and made an effort to get out of his lap.
However, Bryan had other things on his mind. His hold on her waist became more firm, and he prevented her from getting up from his lap.
Sophia could not help but blush.
She was sitting on his lap!
He had strong and thick thighs, and she could feel them beneath her! She wondered if he went to the gym to build such a body.
It brought back memories of the day when she had gone to his house to pick him up. Her mind was completely blown when she saw his abs and biceps that day. He possessed the kind of body that women would feel a deep desire to touch.
When she felt his warm breath on her face, she realized that she was still sitting on his lap.
At that moment, she immediately placed her hands on his chest and attempted to stand up once more.
“Alpha, I-“
“Why are you acting as if this is the first time you are sitting on my lap?” he asked with a smirk.
She froze when she heard his question. His question reminded her of the very first day of her job, when she accidentally landed on his lap.
Suddenly, her brows furrowed as she pondered the question,
“Wait just a second! Was that really an accident?’
She caught a glimpse of his sly grin and recalled the day. He was the one who ended up pulling the bag, which resulted in her falling on his lap. Did he do that intentionally?
She shoved her thoughts from her mind and cleared her throat.
“I-I have a lot of work to do. Let me go.”
With a raised eyebrow, he inquired,
“What kind of work?”
She looked at him directly and replied, “As a personal secretary of the CEO, I have some responsibility.”
His eyes looked intently at her face. Under his gaze, she experienced a rapid acceleration of her heartbeat.
Her heart almost skipped a beat when he moved his fingers to caress her upper back.
A light touch was all it took for her to straighten her back immediately.
But he did not stop it. Instead, he focused his attention on the reactions she gave to his touch.
“A-Alpha…”
She tried to tell him to leave her but paused when his fingers slowly moved to her lower back.
She immediately grabbed his hand to stop him and shut her eyes.
