"Chris, you—"
Lena turned, ready to speak, but a passionate kiss abruptly silenced her.
She stood still, her thoughts empty, as an electric feeling surged through her.
Chris swiftly pulled her close, savoring her taste and the softness in his arms.
This apartment had long been part of his plan. This kiss, too, had been carefully arranged.
Initially, he aimed to spend more time with Lena. Eventually, this kiss would naturally unfold here.
But when Lena pushed him onto the carpet earlier, his desire ignited. Suppressing it had gone on too long. Holding
back might lead to complications.
Thus, he chose to take the leap instead...
Chris kissed Lena with fervor, lacking finesse, and Lena even found it slightly painful. However, she responded to his
kisses despite her initial resistance. Her hands crept onto his broad shoulders, involuntarily rubbing them. She was

"Lenny..." He reluctantly parted from her lips and smiled softly, gazing at her.
"I like you."
Lena looked down, too nervous to say a word.
"And you?" he asked her. "You like me too, right?"
"You already know," Lena mumbled.
Chris felt like he had won a battle and laughed wholeheartedly.
It was the first time Lena took the initiative to cuddle him against his chest.
It was also her first time understanding what it felt like to have a home of her own. -
The following day, Lena reached the sales center punctually for her job. Everyone looked at her with surprise.
They were aware she was attractive, but due to her regular black clothing and minimal effort in dressing, no one
thought of her as remarkable. Nonetheless, today she looked like a blooming cherry blossom under the sunny sky—
lively and elegant.
Even Jade observed her for a while, smiling, which caused her to blush.
"Ms. Neale, is something the matter?"
"Nothing." Jade smiled. "You look very beautiful today, quite different!"
"Oh." For the first time, Lena was dressed in light colors and felt a bit embarrassed as she touched her face. "It
might be the clothes..."
"This outfit looks great!" Jade suddenly realized. "Oh, I know what's different about you today! You not only changed
your clothes but also applied lipstick!"
Lena pursed her lips and chortled.
Chris had given her that lipstick last night, a whole set of them. Chris had suggested she wear a different shade
daily, ensuring a good mood.
"Lena, that's the spirit!" Jade patted her shoulder. "You have a good physique and are already beautiful, so you

social etiquette.
"As for the saying that women dress up to please others, I don't entirely agree." Jade shrugged.
"Women should dress up to make themselves happy. When they're happy, they're more productive, and that
naturally leads to earning money, don't you think?"
Lena gave her a grateful look and nodded.
Since her first day at the Thompson Group, Jade had been looking out for Lena. Lena understood that Lina was the
reason Jade showed her special attention. Still, during the time they spent together, Lena glimpsed Jade's true
character.
If Jade's character was not decent, Lina would not have handed her over to Jade.
Lena smiled. "Ms. Neale, you're right."
"Yeah!" Just then, a sharp voice echoed. "Ms. Neale, you're absolutely right. If a woman doesn't know how to dress
up, can she even be called a woman?"
