Nervously biting her lip, she quickened her pace toward his office. She found her staff standing with their heads
lowered, including Carl, while Matteo radiated raw anger around him.
"Mr. Vinci," she called softly, her voice slicing through the tension in the room. Matteo turned his head sharply
toward her, and his heart skipped a beat as he took in the sight of the beautiful woman striding confidently in his
direction. In that moment, everything else faded away; nothing existed but her.
Her blue eyes sparkled with something that took his breath away, catching in his throat. Silky, soft caramel
brown curls danced in the air, framing her face and giving her a dreamlike allure, even in a formal sky- blue
dress. The scarf around her neck added an extra touch of elegance, accentuating her grace. In that instant, she
was the most stunning woman in the entire universe.
All his anger dissipated, replaced by a pleasant sense of joy. He couldn't tear his eyes away from the only face

with her. "I see your newfound interest in French still lingers," she commented sarcastically.
"| find it even sweeter when it's meant for you," he replied huskily, giving her a mischievous wink.
Emily sighed, shaking her head. "Mr. Vinci-"
"Matteo," he cut in.
"Alright, Matteo, may | ask what made you so upset that you halted my staff from working on redesigning your
office?" she asked, crossing her arms across her chest.
Matteo casually slipped his hands into his pockets, standing before her as he unabashedly checked her out.
Emily narrowed her eyes in the challenge, but Matteo didn't seem to mind, his gaze lingering on her. "You said

complained, a smirk playing on his lips. He couldn't manage to stay angry with her, not even
