Chapter 81 A Probing Touch

When there were only two people left in the room, Freya looked at Radley, still frowning

“Radley, you invited me to join the Joint Department and I’ve been working here for almost a month now. I can have my break, right? We are in a cooperative relationship. I am not your subordinate.”

He sat upright with a clear and dignified aura and spoke in a calm tone. “I know, but I think it’s necessary for you to stay here.”

“Why?” She was getting angry.

He looked up at her. Her eyes were like two little suns burning with flames when she was angry.

He suddenly had a thought.

“Freya, are you dating Matthew?”

Freya frowned. “That’s my personal matter. Besides, what does that have to do with what we are discussing?”

“Matthew is not suitable for you. It’s irresponsible if you want to free up your work time just to go on dates, Radley said coldly.

“Whether he’s suitable for me or not is none of your business.” She gritted her teeth. “And even if I do want to go on a date, I’ve never heard of any project that requires the president of the group to stay put!”

His eyes narrowed. “Are you really dating him?”

He suddenly stood up and leaned in closer to her.

His imposing manner was already intimidating, and now that he was so close to her, it was even more pressure-inducing.

She felt like she was completely enveloped, and the familiar scent of agarwood made her heart skip a beat.

She glared at him. “It’s none of your bus-”

Suddenly, Radley’s hand touched her face. Freya’s eyes widened and she forgot to react.

His hand, carrying a hint of probing, was placed on her face, but he did not make any further movements.

She snapped back to reality and slapped his hand away. “What are you doing?!” She was angry and annoyed.

He pursed his lips. He had been restless lately because of her. He suddenly wanted to try something. Since he was with her every day in the Joint Department, he still couldn’t figure out the reason for his
