Chapter 17
Dorothy’s POV
"We will talk some other time Aiden, I need to go right now," I said with a smile hiding my shock so the boss won't notice.
He called me dear.
We walked away from there and he asked me, "Dorothy who was that?"
Now he is questioning me like the man in my life, "Sir, he's my friend." I said looking down.
"We are here to work and not to meet friends, what if he sees you and you ruin the chances for us getting a spot?" He asked with a frown.
Oh I get it, I always expect too much, he is trying to get a spot here and not jealous of me in any way and everything he did was just an act.
"I am so sorry boss." That's the only word I could say.
"I have something for you." He said to me and all my thoughts were stupid now.
I focused on his lips again as he walked close to me, it was like I might explode soon, I closed my eyes thinking otherwise but hell no, he just placed something on my neck and withdrew back.
"Dorothy, why are you closing your eyes? Are you expecting something to take place?"
Boss said my mind and I quickly denied it all, "no boss, I just like closing my eyes at this hour." Then I felt the necklace on my neck.
Wait a minute, my jerk of a boss bought me a necklace.
"I know that look on your face, you want to thank me, it's normal."
Who is my boss for real?
Can someone help me define him?
Now he makes my heartbeat with these little things he does and makes me angry with the annoying stuff he does too, why can't I read him?
"I always get a gift for whoever I take on a meeting date, that's just it, now his wife is waiting for you over there, do not fail me, I will be sitting here." He said before leaving.
I hate him for getting my hopes this high, I hate him for that.
I swore at him as I walked to meet the wife of the host tonight who looked extremely beautiful.
We talked about a few things before she focused all her questions on me, firstly she said, "Your lover is damn handsome, you got eyes." I faked my laugh but she is right, my complicated boss is handsome.
"So tell me how was your first kiss like with him?" She asked expecting my answer but I can't ruin this, also I can't just tell her it was a night we had together.
"Do we need to talk about that ma’am?" I asked with a smile.
"Come on Dorothy, you don't need to be shy, okay, I am a female like you."
"Well, I.I…"
"Wow, your necklace is so beautiful." She said touching it.
"Oh, he got it for me tonight," I said, hoping this can cover up the previous topic.
"You are damn lucky to have a romantic and caring guy like him, you know, you both remind me of my youthful age with the love of my life before we got married."
"That's touching, " I added.
"I hope to see you again with him and no other lady. Okay, I need to go now." She took her to leave and I had a deep breath.
"That was close." I took more drinks because I thought about the previous things that took place but were just frustrated by not being able to define my boss' actions in one word.
I think it's best I just get drunk and forget about everything, I know when I wake up, I think of only just work, that's all.
"Hey, get me more glasses of drink," I said in highness and smiled stupidly.
I was about to take the glass of wine when someone held my hand and took the glass cup from me, dropping it on the tray, telling the person serving to take it away.
"Who the hell are you to take my drink from me?" I yelled at him in my drunken state, never knowing the person was my boss.
"Dorothy, what do you think you are doing? You are lucky they left to their room to sleep, if not, you would have ruined this." He said been serious.
"Wow, bravo, great speech sir, you look more handsome when you smile, so please smile," I said laughing.
"Don't tell me you are drunk?"
"I see you wish to start another speech, but I need more drinks to be able to listen okay?" He said, trying to take my leave when I staggered about falling he held me.
"Oh mine, you are my superman, thank you, but I am fine, I can walk myself," I said.
"Dorothy, you are so drunk, can you make it home?"
"I know my way around okay." I insisted on walking myself but he followed me without stopping.
"Wow, I love that spot, I want to sleep there," I said.
"No way, are you insane, I am taking you home now." He concluded and carried me to his car even while I fought with him.
I love the smell of mint in his car and I felt like sleeping in there
Oliver's POV
After I carried her into the car, I got a bit happy. I will be able to relate with her normally since she won't be able to remember a thing.
But taking her to her home, is it right?
Yes I know where she lives, she is my Secretary but I must confess,she looks pretty now.
I entered the car and drove to her place,I got there and searched her keys in the pulse with her.
I carried her into her little apartment but good heavens, how can a girl's room be so messed up?
"Hey you,why do you pretend that you don't know me, yes it's just
a night, but come on,doesn't it mean a thing to you?"
I froze at this but she was drunk.
