It was as though her world had collapsed into his arms.
Dr. Baldwin, I really can’t anymore.
Please, have mercy and let me go, okay? Lauren pleaded, her wide, tear filled eyes staring at Kingsley with desperation.
This is the office.
People are everywhere, and you can’t go on for this long in one go.
Be good.
Lets stop for now, and I’ll give you another chance next time, okay? she begged, trying to escape his grip.
Kingsley lifted his head from her neck, chuckling.
Next time? And when would that be? Laurens eyes darted nervously.
Uh… tomorrow! Then forget it.
I can’t wait until tomorrow.
Besides, you were the one who came to me.
I didnt force you, Kingsley teased with a sly grin.
Ah, no, no, no … Fine, how about this afternoon? That should be okay, right? Lauren stammered. Nope, I’ll need more by lunchtime, Kingsley replied firmly
Alright, alright! Lunchtime it is, you big pervert! Lauren grumbled, feeling both defeated and flustered. For the first time, Lauren felt a chill run down her spine as she looked at Kingsley
This guy, who usually appeared so composed and gentlemanly, had turned into a wildfire when things heated up
She realized she had severely underestimated his intensity it was like trying to contain an unstoppable blaze
Just then, Eunice opened the door and froze, her face a mix of shock and disbelief.
Ms. Rhodes, the morning meeting started ten minutes ago
Are you still not done here ? Lauren shot up like a startled cat, h?stily pulling herself out of Kingsleys arms
She frantically smoothed her hair and adjusted her clothes
Why didnt you come in earlier to remind me ? she snapped, her voice tinged with panic.
Eunice pouted, clearly feeling wronged.
You two were … doing that! If I barged in earlier, youd just yell at me.
What was I supposed to do? While she complained, Eunice could not help but glance around the chaotic scene
Her heart raced as she saw Laurens neck and even her chest were covered in red marks, and her lipstick was completely smudged away.
How long and intense had that been? Lauren forced a stiff smile.
Dr. Baldwin, lets head to the meeting.
Kingsley, calm as ever and without a trace of embarrassment, replied casually, Sure, but you seem a little shaky.
Want me to help you walk? Lauren clenched her teeth, spitting out each word with quiet fury. No… thank… you! 11…..
The so called morning meeting was not an official gathering but rather a private discussion among Rhodes Corporations top executives, including Michael, the CEO
Lauren and Kingsley had been invited only as a formality, given Michaels complete control over the group
If not for the fear of Kingsley accusing him of being dictatorial, Michael would not have bothered to include them at all.
As Lauren and Kingsley entered the meeting room, Michael spun a pen in his hand and sneered. Well, well, Ms. Rhodes and Mr. Baldwin, you really know how to make an entrance.
The rest of us have been waiting over ten minutes.
Quite the power move, don’t you think? Kingsley ignored him completely.
Pulling out a chair for Lauren, he gestured for her to sit
He then sat beside her and said nonchalantly, Feel free to speak your minds, everyone.
Im just here to observe as a major shareholder.
don’t worry about me.
His casual attitude left Michael and the other executives, like Troy fuming.
They had extended basic courtesy by inviting Kingsley, but he acted as if he were some high-ranking official inspecting the company.
It was infuriating.
Troy sneered, feigning politeness.
Oh, judging by Mr. Baldwins demeanor, it seems he has some insights to share.
Why don’t we all listen attentively to his wisdom? His comment dripped with sarcasm, clearly meant to set Kingsley up for embarrassment.
After all, in Troys eyes, Kingsley was just a wealthy shareholder with no real business knowledge. Michael followed up with a mocking grin.
Mr. MacAfee has a point.
Mr. Baldwin, you’re part of Rhodes Corporation now, so perhaps you could share some grand vision for our companys future or enlighten us with your development plans? The other executives, all five of them, smirked and watched Kingsley expectantly, clearly hoping for him to stumble.
Laurens face darkened, and she was about to intervene to spare Kingsley the humiliation.
She knew it was unrealistic for him to haye a grasp on the intricate details of the business so soon after joining
Yet, Kingsley simply smiled.
Visions and development plans? Lets skip the empty talk.
Its not practical.
However, since Mr. Rhodes and Mr. MacAfee are so eager, I’ll share a couple of suggestions.
Michael and Troy exchanged surprised glances
They had not expected Kingsley to actually play along.
Troy laughed derisively.
By all means, Mr. Baldwin, please enlighten us.
Just make sure its something useful
If its nonsense or completely off the mark, don’t blame us if we end up laughing.
Kingsleys expression remained calm.
Oh, don’t worry.
You wont laugh you might cry instead.
He leaned forward slightly
I have two immediate recommendations regarding personnel arrangements.
First, I propose returning the CEO position to Ms. Rhodes, where it rightfully belongs
Second, the position of head of the Pharmaceutical Division should also be reinstated to Mr. Chapman
After all, critical roles should be entrusted to individuals with proven competence and experience
Thats fair, isnt it? The room fell silent as Kingsley finished, and Michael and Troys faces darkened The other executives sat in stunned disbelief, their expressions quickly turning cold.
Troy slammed the table in anger.
Mr. Baldwin, we asked for valuable, constructive suggestions not for you to spout ridiculous nonsense! Michael remained silent, his face grim and menacing, though his clenched jaw betrayed his frustration.
Kingsley remained unfazed, smiling as he continued.
Mr. MacAfee, don’t get upset just yet.
Im not finished
I have two more points to share.
First, I believe Michael lacks the qualifications and ability to hold the CEO position.
Therefore, I propose that he be reassigned to a role better suited to his capabilities- perhaps heading the security department.
He could oversee the companys main entrance
That seems like a fitting role, don’t you think? Ignoring Michaels furious, almost murderous glare,
Kingsley pressed on
Second, Mr. MacAfee is equally unfit for his role as head of the Pharmaceutical Division.
Thus, I suggest that he be removed from his position immediately and reassigned to oversee the parking garage.
With Michael at the main entrance, Mr. MacAfee, the garage would be a perfect fit for you.
Kingsley leaned back in his chair, spreading his hands.
That concludes my suggestions.
Now, who agrees? And who opposes ? Lauren could not contain herself any longer.
She burst into laughter, clutching her sides as she bent over.
Kingsleys audacity and sharp tongue were simply too much for her.
The rest of the executives stared at Kingsley in sheer disbelief.
