Chapter 1408
If Elysia was in a good mood, Tarquin was right there with her-his happiness was basically tied to hers.
He looked totally smitten, his voice dripping with affection.
"No need, babe. Just be good and wait forat home. I've got a reward for you when | get back."
Elysia hesitated, remembering the cheeky whisper he'd breathed in her ear before leaving. Her cheeks flushed
pink.
"...I'm hanging up now."
Before Tarquin could answer, she ended the call.
Tarquin just sat there, grinning at his phone like an idiot.
Lowell, watching him through the rearview mirror, couldn't help himself and piped up,
"Tarquin, you've changed, man! You used to be the big bad wolf-now you're, what, a foxy little heartthrob?"
Tarquin shot him a cold glare from under his lashes.
The chill in the air made Lowell realize he might've stepped over the line. Calling
the big boss a foxy playboy? Not the smartest move. If they weren't old friends, he'd probably be toast by now.
Lowell's heart skipped a beat, scrambling for a way to save himself. But then Tarquin, cool as ever, replied,
"Hey, if | can win over my wife, that's a skill."
Lowell stared, stunned. Was Tarquin actually admitting to being a heartthrob? And proud of it, too?
He could only awkwardly agree,
"...Right, right. Whatever you say."
You're the boss, after all. Who's going to argue?
Back at Number One Mansion, Elysia hung up, cheeks flushed, and headed to the bathroom to wash up.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA "reward" from Tarquin meant only one thing-he wanted her. Didn't matter how many times it happened; she
still got nervous and shy about it.
She took a long, steamy shower, slapped on a face mask, and finally felt the butterflies in her stomach settle
down.
After blow-drying her hair, she crawled under the covers, waiting for Tarquin to chome.
She pulled out her phone to find Winona Newsom and Blossom Blythe chatting away in their tgroup chat
about the whole Punikon situation. She typed:
[I called Tarquin. That kid got expelled from school.]
Winona: [Good riddance. No wonder that kid turned out like that with parents like his.]
Blossom: You and Mr. Bradford are
going to be heroes to the other parents. So many wanted Punikon
gone but were too scared to say anything because of his family's connections.] s
Winona: [Mr. Bradford looked extra dashing tonight, Elysia. You better give the man a proper reward later.]
Something hit Elysia and she typed,
[His birthday's at the end of the month. Any ideas for a gift?]
Blossom: [Easy, just get him what he likes.]
Winona: [Mr. Bradford's number one favorite is you. Just wrap yourself up and give yourself to him!]
Elysia: [How am | supposed to do that, exactly? Jump into a giant gift box and let him unwrap me?]
Winona: [Too cliché! He doesn't care
about scardb rghoxwhatihe
ip) :
nts iyo, inl our glory. The
ET you are, the more he'll love it]
With that, Winona started spamming the chat with a bunch of lacy lingerie pics.
Blossom and Elysia both blushed furiously, hiding under their blankets, faces nearly as red as their pajamas.
Before they could even respond, Winona kept going:
[Elysia, pick one and wear it. Do a
little dance for Mr. Bradiordwiemie

Winona then tagged Blossom and started sending even more messages,
[Blossom, you need to try this too.
Those cold, stoic Rye always'the
legends ‘When Axel gets
back from Mariana Land, just go for
it!]
[He might put up a little
resistance guy's got moves-but if you manage it, that means he's into you And trustafter one night you'll
have him eating out of your hand!] s
Blossom, blushing like crazy, dared to ask, [Seriously?]
Winona replied, full of confidence,
[Of course! Axel might act all aloof, but underneath he's just a sweet puppy who's
never even had a real girlfriend!]
