Dumped My Cheating Ex. Now I'm Sleeping Next to a Billionaire CEO novel Chapter 1756

One afternoon a few weeks later, Krystina suddenly dropped by the company. As usual, she had picked up takeout from their favorite local restaurant, planning to check in on Sylvia and share lunch together. But when she pushed open the door to the CEO's office, she found the room completely empty.

Krystina paused in surprise. This was a first. Sylvia was an absolute workaholic. In the past, she spent every lunch break at her desk, grabbing quick bites while reviewing documents. Krystina stepped back out and stopped a passing assistant to ask where she was.

The inquiry yielded immediate results. The assistant leaned in with a gossipy whisper. "Ms. Moore has been going out for lunch with Mr. Michell almost every day lately. They usually go on a little date afterward, too."

Krystina's jaw nearly hit the floor. The Sylvia who cared about absolutely nothing but making money was sneaking out for midday dates with a man? Raising an incredulous eyebrow, she carried the food into the office, ready to wait for her prey to return.

She waited for over an hour before the office door finally swung open. Sylvia and Steve walked in side by side, and to make matters even wilder, their fingers were securely intertwined. When Sylvia looked up and spotted Krystina sitting on the sofa with her arms crossed and a knowing smirk on her face, she froze. Out of pure reflex, she yanked her hand out of Steve's grasp.

Krystina took in the entire display and raised an eyebrow, her tone thoroughly amused. "Well, well. Having a secret romance and planning to keep me in the dark forever?"

Sylvia's face flushed straight to the tips of her ears. Guiltily avoiding Krystina's gaze, she was completely at a loss for how to explain herself.
