Chapter 228 -228: Don’t Doubt, I Am Threatening You
Meeting adjourned!
Did they hear that right?
The meeting, which was expected to last until ten, had come to an abrupt end because of a woman’s arrival, as the president announced dismissal.
And the office temperature felt as if winter had turned to spring, with a warm breeze gently blowing.
It was then they remembered this woman was the same one who had fiercely put Miss Fuller in her place at the company that day.
She was their president’s wife, she was… his majesty!
Was it still possible to curry favor now?
Waylon Lewis took Hope Williams back to his office, placed the meal box on the coffee table, and pulled her down to sit.
“Are you angry?”
Hope Williams pursed her lips, “Does it look like I’m not angry?”
Waylon leaned in close to Hope, bringing his face near, “Hit me to let off some steam.”
Taking a deep breath and looking at him, Hope noticed the clear demarcation of red blood vessels in his black and white eyes.
Hope’s heart softened instantly. She lowered her head to open the meal box, arranged the dishes, and then handed the food to Waylon.
Waylon paused for a moment, then realized she prepared two servings of food, obviously she hadn’t eaten either.
Puffing up with indignation, Hope picked up her own food, started eating zealously, and said, “If you miss your meals again, I’m going to bring food to your company every day and eat with you. Whenever you eat, I eat; if you don’t, I won’t eat either. I’ll suffer with you.”
Looking at him, Hope said, “Don’t doubt it, I’m threatening you.”
She stated this as if it was only right.
Waylon was dumbstruck, staring at the small woman’s face, which was angry because of him and yet tender due to concern for him.
He suddenly felt like he was the worst.
Before, when he was alone, skipping meals and dealing with it casually seemed fine, yet now that he had her, he felt like not eating was a grave sin.
Waylon pulled her into his arms and tenderly kissed her forehead.
“I won’t do it again, I promise.”
Hope stuffed a piece of rib into his mouth, “Alright, eat up, otherwise you really might ascend to immortality, and what would I do then?”
Hope’s huffy words made Waylon laugh.
He picked up his own meal and ate with her.
After they finished eating, Hope started cleaning up the dishes, satisfied, and Waylon reached over, deftly tidying up.
Hope didn’t argue. Once he had finished cleaning up, Hope stood up, “Alright, I should head back.”

Waylon wrapped his hand around her waist, pulled her onto his lap, and kissed her lips lightly, “Stay with me for a bit; it won’t take long for me to finish.”
“Don’t you still have a meeting?”
“No, let’s leave it for tomorrow. It’s just some documents to deal with.”
Hope’s hand rested on Waylon’s shoulder, genuinely feeling sorry for him; he was truly so busy.
Hope didn’t want him to work so hard, but he was the leader of the entire Lewis Clan Group, thousands of employees relied on him for their livelihood.
Outside, and with relatives at home, not to mention who knows how many people were watching him, eagerly waiting for him to slip up just to pull him down from his pedestal.
Considering all this, Hope felt an even stronger urge to shoulder some of the burden for him.
Hope bent down and kissed Waylon’s lips, suddenly feeling a bit guilty; she had just scolded him, and last night she made him sleep on the floor…
Seeing the look in her eyes, Waylon gently reciprocated her kiss with tender affection.
“What’s wrong?”
“Waylon, what do I do if my heart aches for you?” Hope’s lips pouted softly, her eyes full of tenderness.
Waylon gently pulled her closer, affectionately nuzzling her cheek.
“Let’s not do this anymore, let’s go home.”
Hope hesitated for a moment, tugged lightly at her lips, and suddenly felt conflicted. She didn’t want him to continue working, yet she knew that if he didn’t finish his work now, it would just pile up and make tomorrow even busier.
After thinking it over, Hope said, “I’ll stay with you. Let’s finish it.” Helplessly shaking her head, Hope added, “If we don’t finish the work, you’ll still have to do it tomorrow. Plus, there will be new tasks, and piling them up will only make you more tired tomorrow.”
She knew her man was the most sensible.
“Wait for half an hour, we’ll head home after half an hour.”
Hope obediently nodded, “Okay.”
Waylon tenderly rubbed the top of her hair, then went back to his desk.
The office quieted down.
Hope’s eyes sparkled as she watched the man working in tranquil concentration, his head slightly bowed, and the bright light outlining his perfect, sculpted features, his steady gaze sweeping over the documents.
A silent charm emanated from him uniquely.
Hope smiled.
No wonder so many women liked Waylon, this man’s allure was simply unbelievable.
Just as Hope was mesmerized, a phone ringtone broke the silence. Fearing she might disturb Waylon, Hope quickly silenced it and then walked away to the floor-to-ceiling window to answer the call.
The voice on the phone was urgent, “Doctor Williams, Doctor Wood had an accident…”
…
With a “thud,” the phone dropped from her uncontrollably trembling hands.
That dreadful word echoed in Hope’s ears, reaching right into her heart, bringing about a wave of disarray and sorrow.
