Chapter 33 Waking The Boss Up
#Finished
Stepping off the plane, Jemima was instantly transported from spring to the height of summer by the wave of heat that swept
her
Then, she suddenly remembered her large suitcase filled with sweaters and down jackets. She had never expected to end up near the equator just when she was about to travel to somewhere near the Arctic Circle.
The car that was supposed to pick them up was waiting below.
Zander settled into the front passenger seat, while Jemima continued to sit in the back with Scott.
They first arrived at Royphia Hotel, where they were staying.
After checking in, Jemima and Zander accompanied Scott to his suite.
“Do we have any plans for tonight?”
Scott was seated on the couch, his gaze briefly falling upon Jemima,
Jemima answered in a methodical manner, “There’s only one event scheduled for tonight. Mr. Kian Hooper from TechFusion has invited you to a yacht party. He said it’s to welcome you here.”
Scott gave a nod.
Following that, he said, “I’m going to take a nap. Wake me up at live
“Alright”
Jemima and Zander left his suite, returning to their respective rooms. They too lived in suites, albeit ones that were smaller.
Without even opening her suitcase, Jemima hastily left the hotel. She quickly hailed a taxi to the nearest mall to buy clothes.
She needed work attire, casual wear, and a formal dress, all to meet the clothing requirements of various occasions.
Around four–thirty, she returned to the hotel, quickly took a bath, and changed into office attire.
At ten minutes to five, she quietly entered Scott’s suite and hung up the suit from his luggage.
She had also selected and ironed a set of clothes for him to wear that night.
It was five o’clock when the alarm clock she had set started to buzz
She then headed to his room to wake him up.
She walked into the bedroom with an air of grace and composure. The moment her eyes landed on the bed, her high heel twisted abruptly.
On the large bed in the bedroom, her boss was clad in a silver silk robe. It was casually open at the chest, revealing his collarbone and chest muscles. His two firm, slender legs looked as if they had been sculpted, exuding an irresistible charm.
She knew it was impolite to stare, yet she found herself gazing intently for a good five or six seconds.
The more he looked, the more she felt… fearful,
Isn’t it unfair for Zander to assign mr all the domestic duties? This… This..
Jemima started to feel a bit disoriented, but she couldn’t possibly call Zander over at that moment.
She glanced at the time and saw that it was already five past five.
She took a deep breath, reminding herself that her boss was just an ordinary man.
She walked over to the bedside, a gentle smile gracing her face. In a tender yet professional tone, she called out, “Mr. Sterling.
it’s time to get up.”

Following that, he stretched himself but didn’t wake up. Instead, he fell back into a deep slumber.
Finished
Jemima cleared her throat again, raising her voice to call out, “Mr. Sterling, it’s five o’clock, you should wake up now.”
Feeling as if he was being disturbed, Scott furrowed his brows in irritation. He then raised his arm to shield his eyes.
After a while, there was no movement again.
Jemimal couldn’t believe her eyes.
No way… He’s grumpy when he wakes up!
Jemima had never imagined that her budding career could potentially be ruined by something as trivial as failing to wake up
her boss.
It’s twelve past five already!
Steeling herself, she bent down and shouted loudly into his ear. “Wake up!”
Finally, there was a stir on the bed.
Before Jemima had a chance to stand up, a large hand firmly held the back of her head.
Unexpectedly, her cold lips brushed against his jawline…
Her eyes subsequently widened in shock.
The delicate texture of his skin, the potent scent of his pheromones, and the warm, fragrant aura he exuded… Her consciousness was being bombarded with overwhelming sensations.
Scott stiffened for a moment.
He loosened his grip, leaning his head back. His large hand then returned to the back of her head, gently tilting it backward. Right then, their eyes locked.
One wore a vacant expression, the other’s face was devoid of emotion.
After what seemed like an eternity, Jemima snapped back to reality, She quickly pulled away his hand and stood up, hastily fixing her hair and struggling to steady her breathing. “It’s five thirty. You really should get up now.”
After she finished speaking, she strode out as fast as she could.
Scott fell silent for a long while, pressing the back of his hand against his eyes.
In a single breath, Jemima rushed back to her own room.
She
went to
to the bathroom to wash her face. As she looked at herself in the mirror, she found her face all flushed red.
I was merely doing my job to wake up the boss; how did it turn into me giving him a kiss? This is just so bizarre!
At six o’clock, she steeled herself and returned to Scott’s room.
Coincidentally, Zander had also arrived.
The two of them stood together in the suite’s living room, waiting for Scott to emerge.
As she waited, she found herself observing Zander, who was right next to her. She couldn’t help but wonder if he had encountered what had just happened to her, given that he had worked for Scott for such a long time.
