Chapter 359

---- Chapter 359 Perhaps his love would fade tomorrow, the day after, next year, or the year after. Giselle knew she had to hold on to Donovan while he loved her. She kissed him with burning passion, giving him what he longed for until he reached his climax. Her gaze was laced with temptation , drawing him deeper, until every guard he held crumbled and surrendered to her. When it was over, she rested against his knee and closed her eyes to savor the sex they had just shared. She didn't want to talk, move, and most importantly , she didn't want to leave him.

"You're amazing," Giselle murmured, sliding her hand across his jaw. Donovan was smoking a cigarette as his hand stroked her flushed cheeks. His voice was low and husky. "I should punish you for making me wait for a year." "Is that so? How do you plan to punish me?" "T'll make sure you can't get out of bed for a month," he answered without hesitation. "are you serious?" A grin spread across her face, and mischief danced in her eyes. "That's not a punishment but a reward to me.

It'll be better if you can make it two months!" ---- Upon hearing this, Donovan burst out laughing and almost dropped his cigarette. He pinched her cheek and teased, "Sure. When I'm back the day after tomorrow, I'll reward you." Just then, his phone rang. It was a call from one of his pharmaceutical suppliers. He let her go, stood up, and walked to the window to answer. A few minutes later, his assistant texted him to remind him to head for the airport. He had no choice but to bid Giselle goodbye. "If anything happens during the next two days I'm.

not here, call me immediately." He then cupped the back of her head and kissed her forehead. His voice was firm as he instructed , "Be good at home, and don't wander off." Though Giselle prided herself on being independent and rational , she couldn't help but cling to the tenderness he'd shown her. So the idea of two nights alone felt strangely unfamiliar. After one last lingering kiss, she watched him leave. As she sank back onto the couch, Donovan's face flashed in her mind, along with the vivid memory of their passionate lovemaking that made her feel hollow.

She drifted in and out of a hazy sleep for over an hour before Leonard knocked on the door and entered. "Ms. Holt, someone wants to see you." He seemed nervous. "Who?" Giselle sat up on the couch. "Let them in." ---- But before Leonard could leave, the half-shut office door was shoved open with force. Startled , Giselle turned and found Dorothea standing there. She froze momentarily before regaining her composure, then walked over with a smile. "Mrs. Kane, what brings you here? Were you looking for me?" Dorothea's expression was gloomy and unreadable.

She didn't say a word, but strolled into the office and circled it as though silently inspecting something. When Leonard brought in a cup of water, Giselle quickly took it and offered it to Dorothea. She softened her tone and said, " Please have some water, Mrs. Kane." Dorothea glared at her before snatching up the cup and splashing its contents across her face.
