Reborn: The Tyrant's Obsession novel Chapter 161

Chapter 161: Was he angry... or not?

"Miss Yu," Rin stepped inside the place, followed by another lady who seemed to be in her late 20s.

"Miss Yu," the other lady greeted Ella.

Both of them consciously bowed to Adrian without addressing him, considering the presence of others.

"June, Penny, they are Rin and Shishi," Ella introduced both the duos to each other, "From now on, they will be assisting you with the work."

Ella had pondered over it for a long time. While June and Penny seemed like professionals, they lacked experience in this sort of work.

They did not know luxury products as closely and these products were not brand new even though people still wanted them. Considering that they have been out of trend, it would be tricky to quote the golden price.

For this, Ella needed a professional. Shishi was one of the staff members who had dressed her up before in the cloakroom of Eve Mansion. Considering the lavishness of that place, Ella did not doubt Shishi’s competence in handling this job.

As for Rin, although she was young, she was highly efficient in what she did, like her mother, Bertha.

Although she had them in mind, she was not sure how to approach Adrian regarding this matter.

Unexpectedly, he agreed to let them help her without hesitation.

Throughout the day, Ella guided the four people through her vision in the master bedroom. While she busied herself, she forgot the presence of a certain devil kind sitting outside.

By the time Ella was done, it was already nighttime. When she came out, she halted in her tracks.

Adrian was sitting in the exact spot she had seen him earlier. But the man had a laptop in front of him and by his side, there was a pile of files.

Sensing her presence, the man lifted his head and closed the laptop.

Ella approached him, "You have a lot of work, don’t you?"

"Not much," Adrian replied, grabbing her hand and pulling her onto his lap.

Ella was momentarily startled by the abrupt movement. After a few moments, she composed herself and glanced at the files that reached her forehead, "How is this not much?"

Looking around, Ella spotted Ji Yan who was standing at a little distance with his head bowed.

Seeing the look of ’You are a liar, Secretary Ji’ on her face, Ji Yan nearly cried.

It’s not like he wanted to lie and tell her that the Second Master isn’t busy. His hands were also forced in this matter.

Ella rolled her eyes. Just as she was about to shift her body, a weight pressed upon her neck.

Ella stiffened, a trail of warmth shot down her body and goosebumps erupted on her skin as Adrian placed his chin on her neck.

His other hand wrapped around her waist, holding her in place, as he focused on the laptop ahead.

Though the man seemed focused on his work, Ella’s senses had magnified.

She could feel every breath he took and she could hear every beat of her heart.

Ella panicked inwardly. Damn, what’s happening?

We have done way more before!

Dear heart, get a grip for god’s sake!

Just as she was panicking, all the four ladies emerged from the room one by one.

And as they reached the door, their eyeballs nearly dropped on the floor.

Ella took the chance to slide out of Adrian’s embrace.

She could feel his piercing gaze on the back of her head and dark aura growing behind her.
