Chapter 6: He Likes Me!

Kaitlyn’s POV

I went to Chris in his room. He just returned home and went straight to his room. He is working so hard.

I knocked on the door and he opened the door.

“Hey, Kate?” he asked.

“Well, I want to talk about something,” I said. He nodded and let me in.

Everywhere in his room, were only papers and files and laptops. I wonder how he does so much work without going insane.

“Are you busy?” I asked.

“Well, no busier than I always am,” he replied. I smiled.

“So, tell me,” he said. I took a deep breath and then decided to tell him.

“Well, Mr. Daniel asked me to be his girlfriend...” I said.

I thought he would be happy. But instead, all the colours from his face faded and he looked at me with shock.

“W-When?” he asked.

“Today” I replied. “What happened?” I asked.

“N-nothing” he said but I sensed a lie.

“Chris, what’s wrong?” I asked.

“Nothing,” he said. “You’re going to accept him?”

“Y-Yes I suppose, I-I mean I am going to ask you this. You tell me” I said.

He thought for a second. “It’s your choice” he said.

Then I will accept him!

“Then I am gonna say yes,” I said. He nodded and I left the room.

Shouldn’t he be happy?

Chris’ POV

“Mr. Daniel asked me to be his girlfriend” as Kate said those words, fear rose in me. I can’t stop her, but I-I can’t let her go.

What should I do?

Keeping a stone on my heart, I allowed her and she happily left the room. How I wish you to be happy like this forever, Kate.

But your life is no longer in my hands.

It is in his.

I messaged Daniel.

“What’s this mess about?” I asked him.

“What mess, Mr. Adams?” he asked.

“Why girlfriend?” I asked.

“Oh, that! She asked you, so. Actually, No Kidding, I like her” he said.

I scoffed at his words. Like her?

“At least don’t lie to me,” I said.

“I am not because you are the last person I need to lie to”

“Then why?” I asked.

“Because she is good,” he said.

“But” I was typing but he went offline.

Is this true?

Does he really like her?

If it is true, then I want her to be happy, that’s all.

But I am not believing him.

I want her to be happy.

Even if for that I have to give up my rights on her life decisions.

Kaitlyn’s POV

I decided to accept him the next day. I am so lucky! The CEO of the Sullivan Corporation, the most handsome bachelor, proposed to me!

Anyways, I went to sleep because I don’t want to get late tomorrow.

After getting up, I took my bath and did my chorus. Then I changed into my formal clothes, and tied my hair in a ponytail. And then I applied some makeup to look more beautiful. I just applied some lipstick and some foundation.

I went to the office. As I entered, I could see lustful eyes on boys on me.

Even if I was wearing formal and normal clothes, that I usually wear.

What was the reason?

Anyways, I went to his cabin and knocked on the door.

“Come in,” Mr. Daniel said. I went inside, and he got up seeing me.

His gaze went over to my eyes and then my nose, lips and he smiled.

“So..?” he asked.

“I think I also like you, so” I said. “Yes”

He smiled and suddenly hugged me. I hugged him back.

“You’re looking so damn beautiful, Kaitlyn,” he said. I blushed.

“Well, you know that you always look hell handsome” I commented back.

From my peripheral vision, I saw him blushing. I smiled.

“Do you want to go out?” he asked.

“Maybe” I said. He took my wrist softly and then went out of the building.

In the way, he also told his PA that he would not return today and that she should manage everything. I saw her eyes widened as she saw him holding my hand but she managed to act indifferent.

We are here. It is a beautiful restaurant. 

“I think lunch can be a good start,” he said. I nodded and smiled in reply.

He ordered my favourite food by himself. I was shocked how he knew that.

“Perks of being your boss” he answered my unasked question. I chuckled on his choice of words.

“You look cute when you laugh,” he said. I blushed at his words again and he saw me keenly. I am sure my face would be red, so I covered it with my hand. He used his hands to remove my hands from my face and then kept them on my side.

“Don’t hide your face. You look awesome when you blush” he said. And there I go blushing again.

The food arrived and it was amazing. After we both completed the food, he paid the bill and we headed out.

“So, how was our first date?” he asked. I smiled. “Beautiful” I replied.

“Like you,” he said.

Oh god, how many times will he make me blush.

Suddenly I notice the media surrounding us.

“Sorry babes, this is going to happen” he whispered in my ears. I nodded and then he looked at the group of reporters.

“Who is this girl?”

“Why are you two together?”

“Are you two in a relationship?”

“From how long are you together?”

He kept a hand on his forehead, and then spoke. “I expect some privacy” and then took my hand and took me to his car and drove off.

“Daniel, I think you should have not ignored them like this, you know what if they spend some rumours” I said.

“It’s fine, I will manage,” he said. I nodded my head and sat straight. I opened the news channel to see if it’s on news yet.

“Sister of Mr. Adams found going around with Mr. Sullivan. Rumours say that they are in a relationship”

Oh fuck. Why did they include Chris in this...

Will he go berserk hearing this?

Will it affect his business?

“Daniel, will Chris’ business be affected by this?” I asked.

“I don’t think so,” he said.

“And yours?” I asked.

“Doesn’t matter,” he said and stopped the car. “I can leave my business for you”

I blushed profusely at his words and was about to ask him why we stopped but then realized we had reached my house. I didn’t know when the time flew by, because it was evening already.

I got out of the car. “Bye babes” he said.

“Bye Daniel” I replied. He smiled and drove off.

I headed inside the house and found Chris talking on his phone to someone.

“I don’t care, I WANT 24 HOURS PROTECTION ON HER AT ALL COSTS!” he yelled.

“NO, I DON’T CARE I TOLD YOU!!” he added. “FU*K YOU, MAN!!! I WANT SURVEILLANCE ON HER AND IT IS FINAL!” he yelled again.

What is going on?

On who?

“On who, Chris?” I asked.
