Chapter 253
\nBillionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game novel Chapter 253<\/p>\n
Nova, Madeleine\u2019s editor, darted a worried glance at Madeleine and told her, “Madeleine, have a good talk with Mr. Harrison. I\u2019ll get back to work.”<\/p>\n
Madeleine nodded.<\/p>\n
Nova left the room<\/p>\n
Mr. Harrison said as he was playing with the ring on his middle finger, “Take a seat.”<\/p>\n
Madeleine sat down submissively.<\/p>\n
Madeleine pinched her own fingers nervously, mustered her courage to look at him and asked at last, “Mr. Harrison, why would you dismiss me? I thought we\u2019ve worked together well.”<\/p>\n
Mr. Harrison smiled seductively and gave her an ambiguous answer. “If I didn\u2019t do that, would you be sitting here in my office?”<\/p>\n
Madeleine was totally confused to hear that, slack-jawed.<\/p>\n
It seemed that Mr. Harrison enjoyed her stupefied look, and the smile across his face widened. “Madeleine, have you ever been told that you\u2019re so adorable?”<\/p>\n
Mr. Harrison\u2019s question baffled Madeleine.<\/p>\n
Madeleine couldn\u2019t think straight for a moment, her mouth wide open.<\/p>\n
“What\u2019s wrong? Are you nuts?” The man\u2019s deep and mellow voice drew Madeleine back to reality.<\/p>\n
Staring at his sexy face, Madeleine blushed like a schoolgirl. In fact, she could remain calm when facing Zachariah and Tassach, but she stressed out when facing the man in front of her. Each time she came face to face with him, her heart would jump into her throat while her brain stopped working, as if she had become someone else.<\/p>\n
Madeleine took a deep breath, rubbed her palms against her thighs anxiously and forced herself to calm down. “Mr. Harrison, why would you dismiss me? Don\u2019t my books sell?”<\/p>\n
Mr. Harrison simply smiled, which puzzled her even more.<\/p>\n
“You\u2019ve been avoiding me all the time. If I didn\u2019t do this, would you have come to see me?”<\/p>\n
Now Madeleine was entirely at loss. It was true that she had made many excuses to avoid the man before, but that was simply because she didn\u2019t enjoy the feeling of having butterflies in her stomach. This man was too charming and seductive, and she didn\u2019t want to throw herself at his feet. The only way to stop this was to keep away from him.<\/p>\n
He was just like heroin, and anyone close to him would be attracted by him uncontrollably. Madeleine, nonetheless, didn\u2019t think they were from the same world, and that was why she kept avoiding him.<\/p>\n
In Madeleine\u2019s view, her distancing herself from this man shouldn\u2019t have provoked him.<\/p>\n
“Mr. Harrison, I think there must be some misunderstanding in this. I don\u2019t avoid you on purpose. It\u2019s just that I can talk to my editor if I have any problems regarding my books, and she will deliver my messages to you. It\u2019s not that I don\u2019t want to talk to you. It didn\u2019t occur to me that you would be bothered by this. I\u2019m so sorry.”<\/p>\n
Suddenly, Madeleine explained in earnest.<\/p>\n
She didn\u2019t come from the same world as his. He came from a rich family. He established his business on his own and developed it without his family\u2019s support. He was in the same league as Zachariah and Tassach, but more charming than those two.<\/p>\n
“Mr. Harrison, I think we have some real business to talk over.” Madeleine took a deep breath and pretended to be calm.<\/p>\n
“Aren\u2019t we already?”<\/p>\n
Madeleine was a little frustrated. This man couldn\u2019t be understood with the way a normal person thought.<\/p>\n
“Mr. Harrison, I heard that you wanted to dismiss me. Shouldn\u2019t you give me an explanation? I know the liquidated damages mean nothing to you, but don\u2019t you think it\u2019s a nasty move to release the partner that you\u2019ve been working with for years all of a sudden?”<\/p>\n
“Have I ever said I would release you?”<\/p>\n
Madeleine fell into confusion again. “Didn\u2019t you say\u2026”<\/p>\n
“I was joking with you about it. Come on. Relax.”<\/p>\n
Madeleine clenched her fists and said in annoyance, “I don\u2019t find it fun, Mr. Harrison.”<\/p>\n
