Chapter 1749 Refuse to Work Overtime
Yvette thought about it but could not figure it out.
Lance suddenly spoke.
“Did you forget anything when you got off work today?”
Yvette was stunned.
She looked up at him, baffled.
Lance looked at her expression and gave her a small reminder.
“When you got off work…”
Yvette blinked and spoke firmly.
“Although I came to eat, drink, and have fun, I made sure before I came that there were no urgent matters that needed to be dealt with tonight. So, there was no delay in any business.”
Yvette looked at him and raised her eyebrows.
She looked at him like he was making a fuss out of nothing.
Lance tapped the steering wheel.
“When you got off work, you forgot to call me. Since you invited people from the office and used my card to treat them, why didn’t you ask me to come along?”
Lance spoke in a low voice and guided her patiently.
It was so hard to make her realize her mistake by herself, so he might as well say it frankly.
Yvette stiffened for a moment and then frowned.
Why should Lance come along?
If he came along, would they still be able to scold him so freely?
It was supposedly just a get-together, but in reality, it was more like a venting session.
However, since Lance said that, she naturally could not explicitly say that everyone got together t o diss him.
Yvette smiled and breathed a sigh of relief. She then explained what happened tonight with ease.
“Mr. Sheldon, you work overtime until midnight every day. When are you ever willing to attend such an event? Besides, it doesn’t fit your status! I didn’t expect you to leave work so early, much less come over all of a sudden!”
Yvette explained, but in fact, she was just piling the excuses onto him.
Who could he blame for that?
Lance also heard it, and his face sank for a moment. Then, he looked up at her and suddenly
reached out to cup her chin.
“Are you blaming me for working late every day and not having time for you?”
In that case, it made sense that Yvette lost her temper for no reason earlier today.
Maybe Yvette had arranged activities for them in the evening but ended up delaying them because he had been too busy recently.
In an instant, the gloom in his heart dissipated without a trace.
All of this was because she cared about him!
Yvette was stunned. She felt wronged.
She had not thought about that at all.
Yvette wanted nothing more than for Lance to work so that he could earn more money to support the family. That way, she could maintain her good life!
However, Yvette could not say that out loud, so she just smiled dryly.
To Lance, he thought that he guessed correctly.
For a moment, his heart felt a little sour.
He reached out to pinch her cheeks, then stroked her face. He spoke softly.
“I neglected you. It was wrong for me to keep my old habits. I’ll try my best to take my work home i n the future.”
Yvette was speechless.
What was the difference between working overtime at the office or working overtime at home?
Lance was very much immersed in their atmosphere and slowly leaned into Yvette. His nose brushed against hers intimately.
Then, his lips landed on Yvette’s. After a soft touch, he kissed her deeper.
Yvette might have had too much to drink, so she could not control her mind.
Unknowingly, he led her on, and she did not even have the time to refuse.
However, she felt guilty and did not dare to refuse him either.
Yvette just hoped that what happened tonight would quickly blow over.
His hands were hot, and every spot he touched seemed to burn up. His heat was everywhere and seemed to wrap her like a cocoon. As they kissed, there was an impenetrable feeling. Yvette immersed herself in it and enjoyed it.
Yvette knew how to enjoy things like this the most.
