Chapter 238 - Like A Thief

"What's that?" He questioned her as he shifted his eyes from the small blinking bulb to the woman who was in his embrace. Three horizontal lines graced his forehead when he saw his little elf frown as she kept her eyes fixed on the blinking bulb. 

"Stella?" He called her name softly in order to get her attention back but he failed. He continued to observe the change in her expressions as he tried to think of the most probable answer to his own question. As far as he could remember, there was nothing like that blinking red bulb earlier in this room when it belonged to him only. 

"The room is soundproof." He heard her speak and saw her shifting her gaze to his face. "When the changes were being done, I asked the architecture to contact one of the members of your gang as I wanted to make some special changes to it." She heaved out a sigh as her eyes moved to the closed door. 

"The soundproofing of the room was done in a way that not even a little amount of sound could escape out of the room. But doing that caused another problem to arise, no sound can enter the room either. So I had your man design that small bulb and pair it with some advance security system which activates after the door is locked. It would start blinking whenever someone enters my office when I am inside here." She continued as her eyes moved back to the bulb. 

Adam's eyebrows shot up when he heard her explanation. "You mean someone just broke in your office." His words came out as a remark rather a question. Looking back at the door, he continued. "And whoever it was, he or she is still out there." 

Adam let go of her as he began to head towards the door. He wanted to see who the hell had this much courage to mess with the CEO of the Levinson's Corp. He had only taken a step forward when he felt his elbow being tugged at. Turning his head, he saw his woman shaking his head in a no before she pointed towards his eyes. 

"I will see who's the person. You stay in here." She instructed him as she began to walk towards the door and unlocked it as quietly as she could. After opening the door, she peeked outside only to see a man going around her desk as if he was looking for something. 

"Excuse me?" She called out softly as she tried to get the attention of the man. Though she was acting like her usual normal self, she was seething in anger inwardly. She wanted to bury the man alive who dared to mess with her. 

After sensing the presence of another person, the man stopped in his tracks and turned around. As soon as his eyes landed on Stella, the color from his face drained away, leaving it pale.

"Boss?" He spoke up as a shiver ran down his spine when his eyes made contact with her glaring ones. 

Stella leaned against the door frame as she continued to stand in her earlier posting. "What are you doing here?" She questioned the man as she fought the urge to land a punch on his face. He was one of her employees. What troubled her was his presence in her office at this hour. What was he doing in here? And why sneak in like a thief.

"Ah..I-I actually…. I was looking for a file." He answered her in his broken voice. "The file wasn't supposed to be come up here but I mistakenly gave it to Ms. Bella in place of the right one." He began to explain it to her. 

"That's fine! You can have the file." She paused for a little bit and continued when she saw him heaving out a long sigh. "But what are you doing up here, inside 'my' office." She stressed on 'my' as she continued to lazily look at him. 

"Umm… I thought I could directly ask you as Ms. Bella has already left. I knocked at the door a couple of times but didn't get a reply, I tried to move the door knob just to check if it was locked and it opened. Since I was already inside, I thought I should look for the file myself. I thought you must have left by now, or else I would have asked you." He scratched the back of his head as he answered her. 

"Did you find what you were looking for?" She raised her delicate eyebrows while rolling her eyes in annoyance. Her carefree and relaxed attitude was making the man worry more. 

"N-no. I just came inside before you…" He trailed off as he didn't know what to say more. 

"I will send the file to your department tomorrow. The office hours have been over long before and it's already late, you shouldn't be here." She asked him as nicely as she could only to see the man nod his head in a yes. Just when the man was about to leave, a strong pair of arms wrapped around her waist with the palms resting in her belly. 

"What's taking you so long?" A manly voice entered her ears which could belong to only one person, her personal assistant, David. 

She jumped in his arms as he pulled her back suddenly, such that her back was leaning against his bare muscular chest. She whipped her head back so that she could have a better look at his face. Her eyebrows furrowed when her eyes landed on his brown eyes. 

'What the heck is he up to?' She wanted to question him right away but had to stop herself from doing so. 'Just let this man leave, I will teach you a lesson myself.' She thought inwardly as she gritted her teeth. 

Her eyes popped out of their sockets when she felt his lips being pressed against her neck where he placed a couple of kisses. She shifted her gaze to the man who was staring at the duo with a baffled expression as he stood rooted to the ground.
