After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back

"I'm joking!" Aaron quickly explained, tightening his grip on her wrist.

Selena struggled, her breath becoming more rapid as she stared at him. "Is this supposed to be funny to you?"

Selena scoffed. "Then what was she doing under your desk?"

Aaron sighed. "Picking up a pen."

Selena glanced under the desk and, sure enough, saw a pen lying there. It seemed she had walked in just in time-Valarie had barely gotten under the desk before anything could happen. Even so, Selena was still angry. She tried to pull away. "Let go of me."

Aaron held her tighter.

"No. Don't be like this, Selena. Why did you come here?" His voice lowered, so only the two of them could hear.

Ignoring his question, Selena glanced at the door.
