chapter 6

"It might sound funny but promise me you won't laugh at me," Amelia said

"I promise " but the corner of his mouth said otherwise

Regardless she knew she had to say the word.

"The first requirement was he has to be moderate in height".

"Oh really " trying to get with the conversation

"The second requirement is he shouldn't be too handsome and ugly. I found out that guys who are too handsome tend to cheat more ".

He laughed so hard, uncontrollably

"Pardon me," he said but how did you get to the conclusion that men who are too handsome cheat more than men who aren't ".

"Have done my findings " Amelia said not changing her mind.

"And the 3rd requirement," he said

"He can't be too rich and too poor, and should be stingy "

"Okay " that ruled him out of her list as a prospective suitor not that he planned on being one. He had to be going mad having thought of asking her out.

But looking back at her, he realized he would give anything to have her in his arms, show her to the world, and have her naked in his bed.

He had to clear this wild thought out of his head he told himself trying to get where this destructive thought is coming from. he knew he didn't fit in her world and she didn't fit in his too and one wrong move could destroy their work relationship. But just couldn't help himself.

He knew he had always wanted her since he set his eyes on her and took her to his bed. The attraction had been there, and up until now, he had been able to control it and even use other women as a cover-up.

If she hadn't broken up with Anthony, cried in his arms and he hadn't hugged her. That had woken up the buried desire and now he Thought of breaking his rule of dating an employee.

This is just a temptation and he had to work fast on it. Maybe because he hadn't been with a woman for a long time due to his busy schedule. He knew he couldn't act on his desire, he couldn't help knowing Amelia would reject him swiftly, not because he was her boss, but because he didn't fit her criteria.

"You promise not to laugh "

"pardon "

"You promise not to laugh "

"Sorry, I just couldn't help it "

"I better keep the rest of the list since you couldn't help the few ones I told you "

"Maybe you're right for now I won't pester you, but I would love to hear the rest, hopefully not today," he said

" I think we should hurry and get back to work, we've been gone for a while now ".

"Yes sir," she said

She knew she loved how free they were and she knew they had spent too long at the cafe, finally, she felt light weighed and she couldn't help wishing they could stay for a little bit longer .
