Delete, Block, Move On: Your Little Crybaby Upgraded to Untouchable Queen novel Chapter 105

Adeline added Ryan on WhatsApp, smiling politely []

Her smile had that perfect balance–warm enough to be approachable but professional enough to maintain boundaries. Her striking beauty became somehow more accessible with that gentle expression[]

Only those who truly knew her understood the ice beneath the warmth

Your profile pic doesn’t do you justice,” Ryan said, completely forgetting his boss was standing right there!]

“That’s kind of you,” Adeline responded graciously []

As Ryan was about to continue chatting, an icy voice cut through: “Mr. Shawn, I wasn’t aware we were paying you to socialize.“0

Ryan fell a chill run down his spine.

Only a fool would miss the displeasure in Zarek’s tone. He quickly pocketed his phone. “Right–I should get back to work.“]

He practically sprinted away, moving at Olympic speed–walking pace.]

Adeline tucked her phone away.[]

Noticing Zarek’s dark expression, she figured Leifs antics had put him in a foul mood, and poor Ryan had just caught the fallout.[]

T7l take the luggage upstairs,” she said, grabbing both suitcases and heading toward the stairs.[]

After a few steps, she caught a whiff of sandalwood and crisp cologne, and suddenly the weight in her hands lightened.[]

She turned to find Zarek beşide her. He’d taken the bags.

Adeline couldn’t hide her surprise. A CEO carrying his secretary’s luggage was about as bizarre as a CEO chauffeuring his secretary around.[]

The world had officially gone mad.[]

Zarek seemed to read her thoughts and remarked casually. Like I said, I don’t make a habit of torturing my employees.

With that, he carried the luggage upstairs.[]

Adeline stared after him: Really? Carrying bags counts as torture now? Is he this considerate with everyone, or just me?]

Though it felt strange, she didn’t dwell on it and followed him up.]

The upper floor had a master bedroom, two guest rooms, and a

study

The master bedroom was naturally for Zarek.]

Adeline chose one of the guest rooms, set her suitcase inside, then went to the master bedroom to unpack her boss’s clothes.]

Over the past few days, she’d thoroughly studied the “CEO Preference Guide Rex had sent her, which covered everything from Zarek’s food and drink preferences to his clothing requirements.[]

She vaguely felt like… Rex was essentially Zarek’s not–yet–official spouse.]

This was exactly what a partner would do.

Thunking back, she had once been this devoted as a wife. No matter how exhausted she was from work, she’d still come home and cook Tristan’s favorite meals.[]

The refrigerator and cupboards were always stocked with his preferred drinks.[]

Every suit and shirt in the closet was carefully ironed and paired with coordinating lies, so that certain jerk could look effortlessly polished each morning… only to take that polish straight to someone else’s bed]

Love really did make everyone into hopeless fools.

The ones who criticized such devotion were either those who hadn’t yet lasted love’s bitterness or those who had already recovered from it.]

Was this pain truly unavoidable? When it’s offered, you should just dump it like yesterday’s coffee! Better to trust no one than to trust the wrong one![]

“Ms. Paige, what did my clothes ever do to your

The cool voice drifted from beside her []

Adeline suddenly realized she’d been lost in thought while organizing his clothes, and her distraction had turned to irritation At some point, she’d unconsciously gripped his shirt so tightly it was now hopelessly wrinkled.[]

When had he entered? He moved like a cat []

“Surry, I’ll tron it,” she loosened her grip and tried to smouth the fabric with her hands []

Something on your mind? Zajel asked casually as he removed his jacket and handed it to her

It’s nothing

Adeline Took the Jacket, placing the surt over her arm to hang the jacker In the closet first[]

Her demeanor clearly indicated she didn’t want to elaborate!]

She want med to sharing her troulles, even with Summer she kept things light

Realizing Zarek was still standing there with no intention of leaving ahe turned to lum trying to act natural, but her brain and tongue seemed to disconnect as she blurted out, “Any more clothes youd like to take off, sir?“}

Zarek

Adeline’s face furned ghast whare)

He was already down to just his shirt and trousers!]

Adeline wanted to crawl into a hole and disappear forever. She had meant to ask if he had anything else to say, but her brain had jumped to him taking off his jacket, and the two thoughts had crossed wires to produce… THIS!![]

Adeline:

What was that look?

What was he thinking? My secretary has a dirty mind, wanting me to strip naked. I simply cannot satisfy her wild destres?]

Back in her guest room, she took some time to compose herself before unpacking her own luggage.[

She replied: I’ll pass this along.

She went to the master bedroom and knocked twice.[]

No response.

Taking a nap? Possibly, but… what if he wasn’t? What if he was showering, changing clothes, or on a call?

Awkward timing.

Since the tour was canceled anyway, there was no rush to deliver the message, so she left.]

Another hour passed, and Ryan messaged again: Hara’s getting antsy. He says if Weasley doesn’t want to come to his villa, he’s happy to bring his entire entourage here instead. The sneaky bastard!]

Adeline laughed at Ryan’s candor and replied. The CEO is still resting. I’ll check again and get back to you. Tell Mr. Hara to simmer down.[]

Ryan sent back & crying emoji.[]

Being the messenger between powerful figures was a thankdess job–one wrong move and you became collateral damage

Adeline understood his pain and sent a sympathetic smile empji[]

Putting her phone away, she went to knock on the bedroom door again. This time she heard a response: “Come In.

Entering she saw Zarek standing by the window with his back to her, apparently admiring the view.[]

The bed was neatly made, and he’d changed unto light gray casual wear.

He hadn’t beer. napping? He really was changing clothes earlier?]

What’s up?” Zarek turned around []

“Mr. Hora has reached out twice. First, about an hour ago–he wants to postpone the tour until tomorrow and Invites you for drinks, tonight. Second just now–he says if you don’t go to him, he’ll bring his party to you,” Adeline reported ||

She added, “When I knocked earlier, there was no answer, so I took the liberty of keeping him waiting

Zarek chuckled lightly. “Let him wait. It’s good for him.“]

Checking his watch, he said, “Tell Ryan to inform Mr. Hara that I’ll be there at 7 PM sharp.“]
