Chapter 65
Dorothy's POV
"Boss, I will go and print these files." I lied carrying some files on his desk, "Good Morning." I greeted and walked out of the office heading to the restroom for workers, I took a deep breath, which was so close.
I said to myself.
I heard two females talking about the boss, "Boss is too hot to handle, I want to give it a trial, he might like me."
"What if he has a girlfriend?" The other asked.
"I don't give a damn, he is so cute to be tied up to a lady, I can be his number two or twenty."
I got so angry and went to them saying, "Are you two not supposed to be working? Instead of gossiping."
"We are sorry Dorothy, please we don't wish to be on your bad side, we know you are more close to the boss."
"Apology accepted, now get to work." I acted like a boss.
"Excuse me, Dorothy, since you are close to the boss, I wanted to ask some personal questions, what kind of girl does the boss hang out with, does he have a girlfriend?"
"Yes, he has a girlfriend."
"Wow, I guess he might have other girls."
"Hey, boss girlfriend is crazy, she can tear you two apart, be careful," I yelled.
"Okay, thanks." They left saying, "Why is she shouting like she is the one dating boss?"
I won't let anyone steal my man from me.
I stepped out of the office and Maxwell approached me, "Hey, do you know why our boss is so excited?"
"No."
"Okay, seems something is fishing here, I will find out soon." He said.
This is a sign, I need to be more careful around Oliver.
I went back to my seat and noticed Oliver opened the inner window with the remote and I could see him.
He kept smiling looking at me, I was blushing.
He blew a kiss to me and my phone notification pop up, a text from him.
"You look so beautiful and hot when working."
"You look hot too," I replied.
I notice that the same girl is coming to see the boss.
"Are you expecting her?" I texted and dropped my phone.
"Good Morning, I want to see Oliver."
I faked a smile and called my boss, he told me to let her in.
I got so jealous that I kept on checking on them with different excuses but hate the way she addresses my man.
I can't believe I am so jealous now.
Lunch Time
It was time for lunch, so I decided to talk to him casually, I am angry at him for letting Cleopatra spend more than thirty minutes in the office.
"Are you stressed?" He said when I stepped into his office.
"No, I am not," I replied rudely.
"Time for lunch, I will get the driver ready, boss."
"Boss really." He added but I just ignored him.
We both entered the car, he kept on staring at me but I acted like I was busy chatting on the phone.
We arrived at the eater, the usual was arranged on our table but he wasn't eaten.
"Why are you not eaten?"
"I feel you are upset with me and I don't know my offence." He said with a caring look.
"What did she come to do In your office?"
"You mean Cleopatra?"
"Yes."
"Oh, just some minor talk, wait, don't tell me you are jealous over this, come on, you are my number one and my heart belongs to you already, give me a smile."
He did it again and I smiled.
"Forgiven, now eat okay."
"Yes, my love."
I blushed, while we were eating he said, "There is something you should know."
"Okay, what could that be?"
"I will be having dinner with my father, concerning Sharon, her death, I am sorry we won't watch a movie tonight as promised."
"It's your dad we are talking about here, so I am okay about it."
"Thanks so much."
I got home as usual but was shocked to see Aiden at my doorstep.
"Hey surprise to see me?" He asked.
"Yeah, come in," I said.
"Thanks love." He added.
I noticed Aiden didn't look bright, "I am sorry I came unannounced as usual, I just needed a friend to talk to."
"Sure, you are most welcome, let me get you water to drink."
Oliver's POV
I couldn't bring myself to tell Dorothy that my mother wants me to date Cleopatra and the dinner I will be having with my father, I am to come with her.
I just need time to set things right but still, I have some unfinished business, the unknown, my secret worker hasn't gotten any clue about him, he is faster than we think.
I won't let no harm come to Dorothy or my friends.
I came to my father's house after so many years, I don't really like coming here because of the trauma but I had to come here.
"Oliver, hope you know my election is fast approaching?"
I can't believe the father is talking about this instead of asking about my welfare.
"Yes, I know."
"I don't want any error from your side to ruin things, also Cleopatra is a big catch."
"What do you mean father? I guess I have lost my appetite, this is supposed to be a family dinner not work."
I grew angry to leav
e, and my mother called, "Oliver."
"Mom I need to go now, I lost my appetite."
I should go straight to my love, Dorothy.
