Chapter 14

Sofia's POV

Alexander was really a pain in the ass. Who on earth would do something like this? But, wait!

Was he beginning to care about me or something? I thought he hates me so why all the sudden change yesterday.

Well, the plan wasn't to make me stuck at him— not like I had any plan though.

I really did not want be stucked due to what happened yesterday, I know this wasn't ordinary. Someone had tampered with the dress I made and it was clear. Ever normal human can testify about it.

If I should handle Mari by myself, she would never be enough for me. I'm trying to respect boundaries but she won't stop acting like a bitch and uncultured lady— Well, she's a bitch and lacks home training.

Who be else hates me in the company and had always wanted to ruin me in every way possible of not Marie.

Now, going to work while the whole company is empty with just only I and Alexander in the building. Lame!

Worst of it is that my working gadgets is no where to be found.

"Your actions are irritating and I despise you for it." Frustration and anger filled my voice as I stared at him in rage.

"Getting tired when you haven't even started yet makes you a lazy woman." With eyes still fixated on his laptop, he looked up and gave me a weird stare making me wonder if I had a spider on it.

"What's the stare for?" I demanded with hands akimbo.

"Get out of my office now!!!" He pointed at the door ordering me to leave.

Hell no!

That's not gonna happen.

If I can't work then he wouldn't too.

I didn't give him a reply but rather I looked around his office looking for a very comfortable spot to relax and wen I found one, I squirted like a little child and hopped on the comfy couch.

Alexander could actually do whatever he wants to me at this point but I couldn't care less.

I want behave the way I like, do whatever I want without giving a damn fuck about what he would do to me.

"You look like a lion who wasn't able to get the deer he wanted to devour." With creased brow, I pointed at his face and smiled wryly.

"I can see that you're becoming so relaxed." He stalked up the file in his desk and looked up to me indicating that i need to work on them.

Better for him!

I sprinted towards him in joy as i grabbed the files from his desk and went back to the comfy couch.

"You can't work there." Stating that I can't work in a couch as relaxing as this, he pointed towards a desk that had a swivel chair.

I walked towards the direction he pointed and found out all my working gadgets where on it.

I got all excited immediately and danced around the office as he started at me weirdly with his deep blue eyes boring into mine like they were gonna imprint their initials in it.

"Who gets so excited about doing much work?" He scoffed and rolls his eyes.

"No one except me." I immediately sat down before muttering a 'thank you' to him. Well, obviously he wasn't going to reply but I didn't care.

Please do not ask so much about my change of attitude cause I'm as confused as you are.

"You're supposed to be as lazy as you were described." Alexander mumbled making me chuckle. No one could bring such lame thing saying I'm lazy other than Marie.

"Not as lazy s your staffs." I replied and just like that, the whole place grew silent we both worked in silence without soaring each other a glance.

After working for hours without taking any break, my stomach grumbled and Alexander instantly peeked at me.

"What?" I kept typing on my laptop acting oblivious of what his stare means.

"You're hungry and get, don't feel special." Before I could give him a reply, he ordered that we go to a restaurant to eat.

"Pick up your working gadgets too. We've had enough work for today." He stated. I didn't see any reason to argue so I just complied.

We drove to the restaurant in silence. I watched him closely from the rearview mirror and concluded that he his handsomest.

This was actually the first time I've looked at him this close before and I must say, he's quite a sight to behold.

This same man had made me emotionally weak and for the safety of my health and personal life, I'm not taking whatever care he shows me as anything because he could possibly change at anytime.

We got into the restaurant, placed our orders and began eating. I wonder what business he had in his phone that he couldn't place it down and at least eat.

"Could you place down your phone and eat? People are staring at you." I gulped down my strawberry flavoured juice and looked away like I hadn't said anything.

In due time, he started eating... The way he ate, chewed and swallowed, everything, literally everything speaks of elegance.

Sofia!!!

You're supposed to face your food!!!

I scolded my self and controlled from face palming.

"Why are you blushing?" Alexander asked, staring at me in confusion as he looked around the restaurant, maybe searching for the man making me blush.

I was flushed in embarrassment, no word came out of my mouth.

"You good?" Sipping from his glass, hr glanced at me lifting his left brows.

"I'm good... I choked on my drink." I lied, trying my best to conceal this embarrassing moment.

" You don't have to lie, well, you aren't good at it though." He teased.

The hell is wrong with this man?

I felt my throat tightening, so I hurriedly gulped down the glass of water in front of me and.... Boom!

Water splashed on his face, ruining his fine white suit.

Goodness!

What have I done?
