Chapter 125: Spill It
Ivy sat at her desk, the soft glow of her computer screen illuminating her face as she typed away at the restaurant report.
The rhythmic clicking of the keyboard echoed in her quiet office, but her mind kept drifting. No matter how much she tried to focus on her work, her thoughts kept circling back to Hunter.
Last night had been magical, and this morning had only made her feelings grow stronger. The way he'd made breakfast, and how gentle he had been with her—it all lingered in her heart like a warm embrace she couldn't shake.
She was grinding from thinking all about it when a sudden knock on her door pulled her out of her thoughts.
"Come in," she called, straightening in her chair.
Selena, her secretary, stepped inside holding a large bouquet of soft pink roses wrapped in elegant white paper. A small box of what looked like chocolates was nestled against the flowers.
"For you, Ms. Anderson," Selena said with a teasing smile, setting the bouquet and chocolates on her desk.
Ivy blinked, heat rising to her cheeks as she stared at the beautiful arrangement. She didn't need to check the card to know exactly who they were from.
It was from Hunter. She smiled thinking about the first time he had sent her flowers too. Then, he had been trying to get her just so he could prove he could get any woman, but then today he was sending her flowers again even after getting what he wanted with her.
Selena's grin widened as Ivy remained silent, clearly flustered. "Ooooh, secret admirer? Who's the lucky guy?" she teased, leaning slightly on the desk when she saw the blush in Ivy's face.
Ivy rolled her eyes, though her heart pounded in her chest. "It's none of your business, Lena," she said, reaching for the box of chocolates and inspecting the label.
