I smiled as I could tell he was definitely staring at me in silence.
Soon I was done and sure enough as I turned to face him, I caught him smiling, although he had quickly regained his composure.
“ Hold up.”
He said, and he came close.
He reached for my hand, and I closed my eyes
“ Not this time Jonathan, this is inappropriate.” I thought in my head.
And sure enough I could feel his arm on my waist.
Trying hard not to resist, I also leaned into him and just then we heard the sound of footsteps approaching.
I opened my eyes, and I met a disappointed look in his eyes as he stared at the door.
I was quick to get myself out of his grip just in time before Tyler came up to the door.
It was not closed.
He soon looked in and his eyes widened at the sight of the two of us staring at him.
“ Oh oops, I am really sorry for having to interrupt you guys, please pardon my manners.
I actually thought you had gone home.”
He turned to leave, but I called him back.
“ Nah, it's fine though. We will be leaving now anyways, take care , and thank you.”
I winked at him, and he smiled, “ ah yes ma'am I appreciate.”
Jonathan had a dry smile on his face all through and I couldn't help but laugh occasionally as I could tell why.
“ I'll drive you home, you don't have to worry about ordering a cab.
Maybe sometime soon I get to drive you to my home instead of somewhere else.”
He shrugged and I closed my eyes for a moment.
I smirked and nodded my head, “ yeah. Just maybe.”

Bright Saturday morning it was.
And I actually had a lot planned for the day.
I was going to try to seduce Jonathan once more.
Deep down I knew I had some lost relevancy in his sight, but that was the least of my troubles.
So long I was able to Eliminate the reason he wasn't finding me appealing anymore, he would have no other choice but to turn to me.
Such was the idea that I had.
I really have him in the palm of my hands.
There his soul lies.
I chuckled as I got up from the bed.
Walking towards to door, I could not help but remember.
A huge grin on my face.
I turned to the stool beside my bed.
I had gotten myself drunk to bed last night as a form a celebration on my record breaking sales.
Today was the listing of shares on the public market.
And based on my market cap I was convinced that I would definitely make it to the very top, and at a really decent price.
I needed the investments from the general public and all that I could get to cement my brand as the face of fashion.
My phone rang and I walked over to get it.
I picked and cleared my throat.
“ Who's there?”
A husky make voice from the other end, one that I did recognise met me with a reply.
It was one of the senior fashion designers at my company.
“ Oh hey, Mr Juniors, how is going?”
I asked, and he immediately replied.
“ Have you seen the news yet? Check the need, the listings have begun, and I thinks it's not what we estimated.”
I paused for a moment to assimilate what he had said, and I immediately reached for the remote and turned the cable on.
And sure enough they had gotten
To the fashion industry, and just against the order of play,
E&M’s the brand I had gotten to be the CEO of, had been the top 2.
Not the first.
All other recognisable brands were below.
Except one.
My jaw was wide open and I immediately hung up to pay attention to the presenter.
“ Also at the second place for this year, as we have two runners up, we will also be having Degeant-rocks!...”
I immediately switched it off.
“ Fucking hell no!”
I screamed and hit the bed with my fist in anger.
“ What the hell do these guys mean?
After all of my troubles going around and fighting with all that I had in me? Even recording the highest sales?
Didn't she go bankrupt?!”
I was mad and turned the cable back on, fuming at the presenter.
“ The fashion giant managed to make a rebound to the top 2 spot even after nearly filing for bankruptcy, thanks to a merger with one of the most solid companies in the whole business world, Rock holdings.
Their reserve pool, and solid financial backing makes them one of the most appealing to the eyes of investors at the moment…”
I couldn't start any bit of it, and I switched it of finally.
“ Oh Holly moll! How can this be?”
I stared into the mirror with my mouth wide open in shock.
“ Wow!”
“ Jonathan really is into this? He really is trying to get all of my efforts canceled out!
I mean how could I be fighting for him, while he in return, fights me?! Who fucking does that?! Is he dumb?!”
I could rage all I wanted, but the truth remains that I knew what Jonathan wanted.
He really wanted her, not me.
I could not possibly poison his mind against her anymore.
It virtually is impossible.
But then I would not let this slide.
That was a sure banker, I never could let anything like it slide.
I took a deep sigh.
All of this meant one thing.
Just one.
I shook my head in disappointment as I reached for the liquor on the stool.
After a shot I reached for my phone and put a call across to Jews.
After a few seconds of ringing he was on.
“ Hey there honey, how may I help you today?”
He asked, and i was about to reply, but he interrupted me, “ nah.. wait hold up what is it that I am seeing?”
He took a brief pause and I rolled my eyes.
“ Did someone just tie with their opponent?”
He asked and he laughed hard.
I hissed and sighed, but I just had to wait for his jeers.
“ Well well well, say less I know what it already is about.
And you know how we get things done over here don't you?
He asked and I frowned over the call.
“ What do you mean?” I asked and he chuckled.
“ Whenever you understand what I mean, you come knocking, I'm always ready for you.”
He inhaled and exhaled and blew a kiss.
“ Till then, voila!”
He hung up.
I was absolutely irritated and I shook my head in disgust.
I had to contemplate.
