Second Lead Syndrome: A Second Chance - Chapter 314

Only the sound of her grumbling stomach woke her up from her uncomfortable sleeping position. Her head was on the desk. Lena opened her eyes and cracked her neck. She got up from the chair and stretched her body.

“What time is it..?” Lena talked to herself.

She glanced at the clock and it was 2 past noon. She had been here for hours now and Kris was not back yet? Or he did come back but because she was asleep, he didn’t wake her up? No… if he came back and saw her like that, he would have moved her to a more comfortable position.

Lena had plenty of sleep last night… she did not expect to nap soundless again. The memory of her sleeping last time and what happened then flashed through her mind.

She breathed and then head out of the office.

Lena opened the door and spotted the young man silently working at his desk. He was so focused that he did not see Lena walking towards him.

“Did Kris come back?” Lena softly spoke.

The young man look from his desk. “Oh, Miss. Shen. No, CEO Li is still in his meeting.”

“….” Lena looked at him. “The same one?” The man nodded. “Exact same one from this morning.” He nodded again.

Lena sighed and put a hand on her forehead.

“Did you have lunch yet?” Lena asked the young man.

“No… I can’t have lunch until the boss is done with his meeting.”

“….” Lena sighed again. “Where is the meeting?”

“I… I can take you there.” The young man spoke. He could feel that she was unhappy.

He quickly sat up from his chair. He walked to the elevator and both went down to a lower floor. He led Lena straight to the room. He was about to knock, but Lena stopped him.

“You have not had your lunch yet, right? Why don’t you go take your lunch.” Lena smiled at him and dismissed him.

Just looking at the room, the curtains were closed shut and it was dark in it. Lena scrunch her eyebrows… what kind of creepy meeting is this?

Lena put her hand on the doorknob and opened the door.

“And here you have—” The man stopped speaking once he noticed the door open and bright light from the hallway entered the room.

“Who—” Lay turned his head to yell at who was interrupting their very very very important meeting but he immediately spotted Lena standing at the door. Obviously not in a good mood.

“Lena…” Kris also looked at her. He had not seen her for just more than two days… and she looked for stunning!

“Oh sorry.” Lena sarcastically spoke. “Did I interrupt the very important meeting that took longer than 6 damn hours and making me miss my damn lunch waiting on you? I apologize.” She crossed her arms.

Kris smiled. He missed this snarky attitude of hers. He clicked a button and the lights turned on. Everyone in the room blinked, adjusting their eyes to the lights.

Kris stood up from his chair and walked over to Lena. He quickly gave her a peck on the cheeks.

“Yes, you did interrupt my very important meeting… But I forgive you.” He gave Lena another kiss on the other cheek.

He turned to look at his employees. “Meeting’s over. We will continue after I am back.” He said in a stern voice.

Kris held Lena’s hand and walked out first. However, Lena immediately stopped him from leaving.

She gave him a stern glare to which Kris looked at her confusingly… and then smiled.

“Oh… and lunch is on me. Order anything and Lay will take care of it.” Kris spoke and nodded at Lay.

After that, Kris and Lena left the room and head toward the elevator.

They entered the elevator and Lena looked at Kris again, still angry and confused at him.

“Seriously, Kris… you can skip lunch but you can’t starve other people.”

Lena was giving Kris a lecture inside the elevator and he was just staring at her with sparkly eyes like a drunk man in love.

“Stop staring at me like that, it’s creepy.”

Kris stepped closer to Lena. “Staring at you like what?” He gave her a wink.

Lena took a step back and blushed. Doesn’t he know that handsome man winking can give a girl a heart attack?

“I miss you.” Kris softly whispered to her as he slowly touched her hair and slid it behind her ears.

Lena felt breathless. It had just been two days… and Kris looked like an insanely hot monster. She could feel her face heat up and his face got closer to hers. She closed her eyes.

Kris smiled at her lovely reaction. His hand settled behind her neck and pushed her closer to him. He gently kissed her lips.. softly before his craving rose up and he started to nibble on her soft lips.

Lena placed her hands on his hard chest and kissed him back.

Her hands crawled up to his neck and then to the side of his face. She kissed him hard until he let him in.

Kris silently chuckled inside… he thought that he was a beast.. but he always forgets who was the real beast in their relationship.

He opened his mouth for her, as their intense elevator kissed continued on until it dinged.

“Ah..” Lena immediately pushed away Kris as the door started to open.

Kris let out a soft chuckle, as he clicked on the door to close back up and then locked the elevator.

“A few more minutes…” Kris smiled at her as he brought her close to him again and immediately started kissing her again.

“Mhmm…” Lena moaned between the kisses. “Yes.. a few more minutes.”

Lena did not know how long they were making out in the elevator. She was hoping no one could hear them also. It was not until her stomach started grumbling that Kris stopped. He chuckled happily at her.

“I had forgotten my baby did not eat lunch, sorry.” He kissed her on the forehead and pat her stomach.

Kris’s hand reached over to hit the button to unlock and open the elevator door but Lena stopped him.

“Wait!” Lena shouted.

Lena grabbed the handkerchief from Kris’s pocket. She placed a hand on Kris’s cheeks for him to look at her and then started dabbing his lips.

“It’s very red….” She blushed. She didn’t know her new lipstick was so transferrable. She will not use it again.

Lena dabbed the handkerchief on her tongue to wet it then cleaned Kris’s lips some more. Then, she started cleaning her lips.

She adjusted his tie and shirt. She spot check her clothes before giving Kris the okay.

“It’s not like we are having an affair…” Kris rolled his eyes. “Everyone knows about us.”

“So… I am not gonna walk out like I am a hungry woman. People don’t need to know that.”

“Mhm…” Kris pressed the buttons and the door opened.
