Chapter 21: I did it
The sight of him sitting so casually in my office with his legs thrown across my desk like this was his personal throne had me freezing in surprise, and I know you are wondering about the other two surprises. Well, they weren't as interesting as the man relaxed comfortably in my chair like he was giving the world the finger. I wanted to turn around, go back outside, and lambast my assistant for not warning me he was here. She did tell me that I had a visitor on my way in, but I had foolishly thought it was a work visitor. I mean, there are visitors, and there are unwanted visitors, and the one smirking obnoxiously at me belongs to the later category. He could clearly see my reaction to his presence, and that was amusing to the bastard. I blinked away my shocked expression as soon as I saw his arrogant smirk, assumed a confident expression, and made my way further into the office. I did my best to ignore his stunning, breathtaking appearance. He was wearing a dark blue blazer suit and

Chapter 22: His high handedness
The pounding in my chest was deafening and unacceptable. My heart wasn't allowed to beat fast for a man like him. No. I blinked to dispel the tension that we were locked in and distracted myself by picking up the white card attached to the red roses. I flicked the card open to read the content. The penmanship was beautiful and delicate. Like a female handwriting. I smiled at the content. It was from Hassan apologizing that he wouldn't be able to make dinner tonight and asking for a rain check. He just saved me the trouble of having to cancel myself. I felt a little disappointed that I wouldn't be seeing him soon. I wondered why he had cancelled. Hope everything is alright. I wanted to call him, but that would seem desperate. I was about to put down the card when his annoying voice intruded. "Who is it from?" Org!I have totally forgotten that he was here. I glared at him before replying in the coldest voice I could muster, with an attitude to go with. None of your business."Of

Chapter 23: He is a comedian
Lost in my tears and misery, I didn't hear the door open, nor the footsteps as they made their way to me until I felt a hand surrounding me. I was so in ned of contact that I surrendered to the hand. Their familiarity beckoning for me to seek refuge in them. He held me without saying a word until my tears dried up. When I was done and looked to see who had me in his arms. I wasn't surprised to see Tim. His perfume announced him. I gently extricated myself from his grip, and he didn't argue. He straightened up and moved around to the other side of the table, his hands inside his pockets. He had a very uncomfortable look on his face, and he wasn't looking at me directly. I was a little surprise that he wasn't asking why I was crying or making some snide remark about my unprofessionalism. "What are you doing here?" I asked after I got my face in order. I felt a little embarrassed that he saw me this way. I watched him curiously as he fidgeted on his feet. This was so unlike him. A ma

Chapter 24: His business partner
For Pops dinner, I went for a silver simmering backless red gown, flowing fish tail, and short sleeve hand, which I accessorized with silver jewelries. The look of pride in pops eyes when I joined him outside was a mark of approval that I have chosen well. I had bought the gown when I was abroad, but have never found the right occasion to wear it. A dinner for business world leaders seemed like the right occasion. I was still annoyed at Pops for making go to this event. “You need to smile dear, we are going to a dinner, not a funeral,” Pop said as he helped me into the limo he rented for the occasion. He went all out for this. The whole nine yards. This will be my first outing with Pops official, and if I am correct in my assumption, which I am even though he hasn’t said anything, he is introducing me into his world as his heir. Though by birth, this belongs to me, I still have doubts inside me whether I deserve it. When we arrived at the venue, there was a mini c
