Find me in your labyrinth (Stella and Jonathan) novel Chapter 3448

Carson straightened up, gave Yuri a nod to continue, and casually strolled toward the guest bedroom.

As he walked, he shrugged off his trench coat, revealing a crisp white shirt that perfectly clung to his tall, lean frame. It was an undeniably striking sight.

Noticing he was heading for the guest room, Marina furrowed her brow. She set the documents down and stood. "Make those revisions we just talked about. I'll be right back!"

Yuri nodded quickly. "Take your time, Ms. Evert."

Marina marched toward the guest room. When she stepped inside, the room appeared empty. Just as she turned around, the door suddenly slammed shut. A pair of hands reached from behind the door, grabbing her arm and hauling her flush against a hard chest.

Marina struggled instinctively. "Carson, stop acting crazy!"

His arms were like steel bands, his chest radiating heat as he locked her in place, completely unmovable.

When her strength gave out, Marina's voice softened in defeat. "Let go of me first. We can talk about this."

Carson let out a dry chuckle. "Do you think I'd trust you to stay put?"

"What exactly do you want?" Marina sighed in frustration.

Carson backed her up against the door and leaned in, his towering frame casting a dark, suffocating shadow over her. "Bringing your little office romance home now?"

A flash of anger crossed Marina's face. "Don't talk nonsense!"

With the hand resting against the door, Carson hooked a finger under her low ponytail. The hair tie snapped loose, sending her dark waves cascading over her shoulders and instantly softening her sharp, formidable aura.

"I'm not happy about this," he murmured, his gaze locked onto hers.

Marina pressed her lips together and replied coolly, "He is strictly a colleague. It's a hundred times more innocent than you having drinks with whatever random girl you meet at a club! Besides, this is my business. It has nothing to do with you. We agreed not to interfere in each other's lives."

Carson didn't blink. "I understand the logic. But I'm still pissed off!"

Marina raised an eyebrow. "Just your male possessiveness acting up?"
