CHAPTER 417

Vanessa ogled the president's backside and long legs as he walked away

She was all googly-eyed. "The president's so nice! So polite! And so handsome!'

Lexi tapped a finger on the table, looking pensive. 'Do the president and Kira know each other?"

Mr McCarthy had paid an unusual amount of attention to the intern during lunch.

Was Kira the reason for him to join their table?

Rumours abounded about the president's secret marriage, but none of the paparazzi had been able to capture a photo of the elusive and maybe fictitious Mrs McCarthy. Vanessa guffawed. 'As if!"

She cupped her flushed face in both hands. 'If Kira is friends with the president, then I'm the wife of George Clooney!!

Dan shook his head.

Fangirls could be such daydreamers.

Lexi thought about it, then she nodded. 'You're right. What was I thinking? Kira's an intern. There's no way she knows the president."

Kira guzzled a glass of water to wash down the linguine stuck in her oesophagus.

Then she headed into the restroom

She splashed cold water on her face.

'Horrible man,' she complained to the mirror. 'I'm going to get heartburn for eating so fast just now."

The only consolation was that he had not gone too far and exposed their relationship.

But maybe that was just part of his plan to toy w

with her.

Kira decided to skip lunch if Austyn showed up at the café again.

She came out of the restroom, walked down the hallway, turned around a corner and bumped straight into a man. She hit her forehead on the smooth, worsted wool of the man's tjacket and caught a noseful of a minty scent. 'You wouldn't come within ten feet of me just now in the cafe. Now you're throwing yourself at me?" His breath tickled her earlobe. waist.

Kira tried to step back, but Austyn locked his arms around her wa

"Someone's coming! Kira panicked when she heard footsteps. 'Let me go!"

*So what if people see us? We're not doing anything illegal.

It wasn't about legality; it was about notoriety!

Kira didn't want to make the headlines in the employee forum as the intern who tried to seduce the boss.

She shoved, but Austyn didn't budge.

She squirmed, but his arms were as strong as iron shackles.

Kira debated biting the man

Reading her mind, Austyn lifted her chin with a finger a

Let me

The rest of her words were lost in the lass.

Kira lost the use of her lips.

She pricked op her ears.

and stared into her eyes.

The footsteps were getting closer and headed this way.

Kira's Mysterious Sugar Daddy

Kira stuck a hand under Austyn's suit jacket and pinched his waist hard.

Austyn hissed in pain.

He drew back, letting go of her.

He glared at Kira

Kira spun on her heel

Before she could escape, Austyn grabbed her wrist and pulled her back.

He whispered in her ear, "There's a party tonight. Come with me.'
