As soon as the words fell, Ethan's hand visibly trembled.
It seemed like he was indeed the eavesdropper from earlier, feeling guilty now.
"Yeb, on my work now, what's up?" he asked.
He glanced at me, quickly shifting his gaze away. He didn't even have the courage to meet my eyes.
"Just wanted to talk to you about something." I walked into his office, unbuttoned my suit, and sat down across from him, legs crossed.
In this office, I was the boss, and he was the subordinate.
"While my colleagues and I were working in the meeting room, did you see anyone at the door?" I inquired.
"No, I didn't see anyone," Ethan fidgeted with the pen cap, avoiding my gaze.
I exposed a meaningful smile. "Really? You must not have noticed. I heard the company is catching traitors stealing secrets. You better pay attention. I'll report this to the company later."
I stood up, buttoned my suit, ready to leave.
Ethan stopped me, "David, wait! I... I remembered wrong. I did see someone, just a janitor passing by. Don't overthink it, it's not worth mentioning."
"Is that so? But how come I wasn't informed about the janitor coming today?" I lowered my voice, sending shivers down his spine.
Ethan quickly added, "Of course, this is my responsibility. The janitor just left. You can ask your colleagues; they all saw it."
"Really? I must have been mistaken. I'll get back to work." I pretended to believe him and pointed towards the office area.
Leaving Ethan's office, I kindly closed the door behind me.
My real intention wasn't to report the eavesdropping incident to the company.
The main goal was to intimidate Ethan, so he wouldn't eavesdrop on me and women having sex in some corner of the company again.
Luckily, Emily locked the door of the reference room where we had just made love, so Ethan couldn't catch our figures or record them.
But if next time he caught me having sex with another woman in the stairwell or parking lot and took evidence, it would be dangerous.
My image and reputation in the company would be damaged.
Back at my desk, by the window with no one behind me and barriers on both sides, I could freely use my computer for what I wanted, like hacking into the company's HR system to find information on HR department members.
Using my own laptop, which I had installed advanced virtual IP to avoid detection by other company PR staff in case of any mistakes.
Sitting in my chair, I hunched over, holding the computer on my lap.
The screen was in front of me, brightness lowered so no one could see it.
I quickly infiltrated the HR department's data, including all colleagues' information, including the CEO Robert's.
In the information section, I locked onto two faces: Scarlett and Molly Rivera.
Scarlett's ID photo caught my attention.
On a blue background, her features were delicate and defined.
Her deep eyes, long thick lashes framing them, sparkled in the sunlight, exuding a youthful vibe.
She probably wasn't in a relationship yet, radiating a youthful aura.
In her photo, I felt she was not only single but also a virgin, her beautiful eyes filled with dreams of the future.
I couldn't help but imagine how happy I would be if I met her back then.
I would make love to her every day, even at work, pulling her to my desk.
I saved her ID photo in a file.
Then, I shifted my focus to the girl next to her in the data, Molly, the innocent beauty I saw today.
Their profiles were side by side.
I enlarged Molly's ID photo.
She also had bright big eyes with long lashes, though not as dense as Scarlett's.
Her eyes were cheerful, but the emotions they conveyed were different from Scarlett's.
Her smile was radiant, with dimples on her cheeks, incredibly sweet.
Molly was undoubtedly a younger version of Scarlett.
Since Scarlett wasn't intimate with me, I decided to be with Molly.
It was like a substitute, a perfect and realistic one.
I quickly skimmed through Molly's personal information.
She was 22 years old, with contact details and home address.
Her address was right across the neighborhood where Mia lived.
The location was perfect!
After satisfying myself with Mia, I could easily move on to Molly.
My life would be so blissful!
I took out my phone, captured Molly's details, and saved her photo.
I sent their photos to the company computer, printed them with the office printer, and kept them in my wallet.
But I hadn't forgotten I had a girlfriend.
So, I thought about better ways to store these without getting caught.
Suddenly, the sound of high heels echoed in the office area.
Grace walked out with her bag."Time to go home, everyone. No overtime today," she announced, leaving without looking back.
I shut down both my laptop and the company computer, joining the crowd to wait for the elevator.
Standing at the back, with the emergency exit behind me, I suddenly felt a force pulling me out.
Before I could react, I was already dragged into the emergency exit.
Grace pushed me against the wall, tiptoed to kiss my lips.
As she kissed me, she whispered huskily, "Mmm... Darling, it's... mmm... been a while since... since we made love. Do... mmm... do you miss me?"
Her warm breath on my face and soft lips instantly aroused me.
I held her waist, spinning her around, pinning her against the wall].
I responded, "Of... mmm... course, I miss you. I... mmm... I dream of ma... making love to you every night!"
I caressed her lips, unable to resist kissing her.
My other hand roamed down her back, exploring further.
