CHAPTER 5: MEETING AGAIN

CHAPTER 5: MEETING AGAIN

SHANBRI POV

I was so nervous that my hands and feet were sweating.

Today our new boss will come to inspect the company.

Employees are currently standing at the entrance to welcome the new boss.

I, on the other hand, have bowed my head and sincerely pray that he will not be our new boss.

That's right, it's not him. It's another Mr. Villamor we will be going to meet today. I just said at the back of my mind to strengthen my heart.

I don't know, even though there is a big chance that it's not him, but my hunch is really strong.

I don't know why, but I immediately got nervous when I heard his last name yesterday.

It's been a long time since we last met and I'm not ready to face him yet.

Maybe he's mad at me for leaving him in the air because I suddenly left without saying goodbye so we didn't have a formal closure.

What if he scolded me for what I did? I hope he doesn't care and forgets what happened.

My heart suddenly throbbed at my thought.

The only thing I'm worried about is the twins, if he's here they can meet.

I don't want that to happen and as much as possible I don't want him to know that we had a baby.

I don't want any more trouble. He already has his own family and I don't want the twins to be illegitimate children.

I have to be careful so that they don't meet because my children might also be hurt if their father doesn't accept them because he has his own family.

I'm just holding my breath from where I'm standing, maybe I won't think about it because I'm not sure that he's the new boss.

A black car is coming, maybe it's the one we've been waiting for. I can no longer hide my nervousness.

"Get ready, Mr. Villamor is here," said our supervisor, Mr. Santos.

Until now, he is still a single man, he doesn't have a family yet, so sometimes he can be hot-headed with us, but it can't be denied that he is kind.

We stood upright and waited for Mr. Villamor to get out in his fancy car.

It's like everything has slowed down for me because of the nervousness.

Most people are excited because according to them he is handsome.

Mr. Villamor is coming down in his car. When he finally got down, it was like cold water was poured on me.

My hunch was correct that Kenj is Mr. Villamor who is our new boss.

I stared at him as he approached us. He became more handsome and his body became more well defined.

Most of them were amazed at what they saw.

The eyes of Mr. Villamor went in our way and I caught a glimpse of his gray eyes again.

I immediately bent down and straightened up.

I hope he didn't see me. Maybe with so many of us here now, he wouldn't have noticed me. My heart beat faster.

"Good morning Mr. Villamor," the employees greeted him at the same time but I couldn't open my mouth because I was so nervous.

He was getting closer to where I was standing and I was fervently praying that he wouldn't notice me.

I smelled the familiar scent. This was my favorite scent four years ago and I'm still searching for this scent up to this day.

I was still bowing and suddenly Mr. Villamor spoke. I heard his deep voice again and I think it got even deeper because I was about to drown in my position.

He stopped in front of me.

"What kind of uniform is that?" he said with a cold and baritone voice.

What does he mean by that? I know that we don't have a uniform. Is he talking to me?

I didn't answer because maybe it wasn't me he was asking.

"Miss, do you hear me?" he asked again.

I ignored it and kept my head down.

"Ms. Ramos, Mr. Villamor is talking to you," Mr. Santos turned to me.

I immediately came to my senses and immediately looked up in front of me.

That's when our eyes met and I saw his gray eyes up close again. He stared at me without emotion.

"A-ah e-eh, what i-is it s-sir?" I asked him nervously.

"Your outfit. I don't want to see anyone here wearing revealing clothes. Understand?" he said strictly.

The employees responded immediately. "Yes, sir," they said together.

Mr. Villamor passed me and continued walking into the company. I didn't even apologize for the shock.

"Come on. Get back to work," said Mr. Santos to us.

I sighed and looked at my clothes. Is what I'm wearing revealing? Because I'm wearing a skirt above the knee and you can see my white legs.

It's not that short and I'm wearing long sleeves on top. What others are wearing is even more revealing, but why did he notice me?

I just shrugged my shoulders and went back to work.

He still hasn't changed, he's still an authoritative person up to this day.

___

Everyone is busy with their work.

Mr. Santos approached me and handed me a folder.

"Shan, please take this to Mr. Villamor's office because we need his signature," he ordered me.

"W-what?" I stuttered my answer.

"Please take this to sir and he needs to sign it so that you can apologize for what happened earlier because you didn't answer, next time don't wear a skirt and he looks conservative," said sir at length.

"Ah, I'm sorry," I apologized.

Breathless, I entered the elevator and hit the floor of the CEO Office.

The elevator rang signaling that I had arrived. I went out and walked towards sir's office.

Why does it seem to be getting colder here?

I'm in front of the door and I'm thinking twice about going in.

I took a deep breath and knocked three times in respect.

I went inside and saw him sitting on his swivel chair.

I saw his desk plate name stamped on it, "Kenji Yael Villamor, President/CEO"

It's confirmed that he is our new boss and I am not dreaming.

He is currently talking to someone on the cellphone.

"Yeah, I will stay here for a while. Please take care of that while I'm away," I heard him say on the other line.

He hung up and turned to me.

I immediately greeted him and bowed slightly in respect.

"Good morning, sir. Mr. Santos is asking me to give this to you and sign it," I responded hesitantly.

He looked at me from head to toe as if he was examining my body and face.

"Just leave it here. I will sign that later," he replied.

I put down the folder and was about to say goodbye when he suddenly spoke again.

"Long time no see Miss Ramos," he replied deeply.

I didn't answer right away and stared at him.

He also stared at me with a smirk on his lips.
