Chapter 277 “Why?” “Why?” The subordinate had an odd expression on his face. “Isn‘t this what you should be doing? If there are any sudden changes to the drafts, it‘s more convenient for Mr. Langford to tell you in person, right?”
Tina went silent after that. She had no idea how to refute the subordinate‘s words, so she could only‘stay quiet.
Now that he had carried out his role as a messenger, the subordinate chose not to linger anymore and left. On the other hand, Tina was left anxious and nervous. What should she do now?
When Keith noticed her plight, he asked, “Are you afraid of him?”
She could only smile bitterly. “I think everyone‘s afraid of him.”
Tina would be fine if Samuel merely wanted her to design for him, but the problem was...
She didn‘t have his exact measurements. Wouldn‘t this mean that she would have to personally seek him out and take his measurements?
The poor woman could only leave Keith‘s room with a muddled brain. She had barely escaped from Samuel‘s clutches earlier that day and gotten rid of his suspicions, but now, she had to return to him once again. What should she do this time? Tina was very frightened, but at the same time, she knew that she was left with no choice but to proceed.
She took a deep breath, having steeled her resolve. She would die sooner or later anyway, so she might as well go seek Samuel out right now and perform her task.
After asking for directions from a nearby servant, Tina finally found her way to the study. She prepared herself mentally for what was about to happen next while clutching the tools firmly in her hands. Then, she knocked on the study door lightly.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
Her heartbeat had already accelerated by the time she knocked on the door three times in a row. She didn‘t know how much time had passed before a voice finally traveled through the door from inside the study. “Enter.” Tina opened the door slowly with sweaty hands. The interior design of Samuel‘s study exhibited a mature and business–like style. His work desk was sharp and angular, its dark and shiny surface emitting a cold glint.
The man in question was still wearing the same suit as before. His long and slender fingers
gripped a black fountain pen sturdily as he made corrections on the documents before him.
All in all, he looked cold and heartless as usual.
Tina entered the study quietly, just like a mouse.
Samuel rubbed his forehead and spoke to her coldly without even lifting his head. “Just leave the coffee on the desk.”
It was obvious he had mistaken her for a servant who came in to serve him with coffee.
Tina spoke up carefully. “Mr. Langford, it‘s me...” Samuel frowned instinctively before lifting his head. He finally realized that Linda was the one standing in his study. “What is it?” he asked.
“I heard you‘re planning to attend a banquet, so you requested me to come up with a few designs for you. However, I don‘t have your body measurements. So...” Tina showed the measuring tools in her hands. “Tch! How troublesome,” Samuel remarked in a slightly impatient tone. Tina‘s heart skipped a beat out of fright. “I‘ll leave right now if I‘m disturbing you, Mr. Langford. I‘ll come back later once you‘re free.”
(There‘s no need for that. You can do your work now.”
The moment his words fell, Samuel stood up and started undoing the buttons on his suit jacket.
In order to take accurate measurements of one‘s body, they mustn‘t wear any excessive clothes, much less a suit jacket. The clothes would affect the final measurements, after all.
As a professional designer, Tina knew that it was a very vital step when it came to taking measurements. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
However...
The sight of Samuel taking off his suit jacket crisply without any hesitation made her blush slightly. Of course, Samuel didn‘t think too much about it.
He placed the jacket casually on the desk, now clothed in a white buttoned shirt. After he undid the buttons of his cuffs, he started folding his sleeves upward, revealing his strong and taut arms.
At that moment, Samuel exhibited an attractive musk filled to the brim with masculine pheromones.
He shot Tina an annoyed look, realizing that she was still standing there in a daze. It made him frown impatiently. “What are you standing there for? Hurry up and come here!”
