In a very beautiful and wide office, a handsome man was sitting down in front of a computer, he was very busy and didn't know when the door open, his manager came in and stood rooted at a spot, her eyes lingers to his perfect jawline, his well sculpted face and his charming eyebrows which she can see right from where she was standing because it was very long.
Naughty thoughts suddenly enter her head and she imagines kissing him as they make out hotly on his table, he suddenly raises his eyes up and frowns when he sees her.
His face beaming anger, he asked her what she was doing in his office.
His deep voice sounds so cold but that makes my tummy tickling, she just loves everything about him.
She managed to inform him about a visitation of his friend, she looks at him seductively.
Even though she herself knows she was lying, she was here just to get a glimpse of his angelic face.
He warned her never to walk into his office without a knock, and she shouldn't bother to call nor take permission before he focused back on his laptop.
She bowed down her head and bit her lip before walking out. The door opened and a handsome man came in immediately.
“Noah Everest,” the man called with a smile.
“Stanley Miller,” Noah called too as the man sat down in front of him.
They were busy discussing it because it's been a long time. The two friends set eyes on each other when they heard the sound of a car , Noah went straight to the window to check and like he had expected it was his father.
“The old man is here, he is gonna kill me,” Noah said.
“I will just hide in the restroom,” Stanley said.
He quickly stood up before entering the restroom, Mr Everest came in a few minutes late, he was a man in his early sixties.
“Hi Dad,” Noah mutters coldly but he just ignores him and looks around the office.
“What are you looking for in my office?” Noah asked again but gave up when he was not ready to answer.
“I received a report that you bring friends to your working place, that isn't tolerated, you have to focus well on this company and look away from any distraction,” Mr Everest said.
Noah was flabbergasted to see his dad saying things he couldn't figure out. He was wondering if maybe Nicholas, his step brother, had been the one telling him everything.
“Who told you that? I am very sure it is Nicholas,” Noah scoffed.
“He wasn't the one, you know I am obsessed with being good, I wouldn't want you to spoil that for me,” his father said before walking out of his office.
Noah didn't say anything and just went to his seat and asked Stanley who has been hiding in the restroom to come out. Stanley came out with a grin on his face.
“I know you are tired already, how about we hang out at a club tonight?” Stanley asked.
“I don't have fucking time for that,” Noah scoffed.
“I don't wanna hear that so see you tonight, I am gonna send the address to you,” Stanley said with a smile on his face before leaving.
Noah shook his head before focusing back on what he was doing.
*********
A lady was seen moving around with dishes in her hand. She made sure to serve all the customers though she was tired.
Today has been really stressful because they have a lot of customers. She returns the dishes in the restaurant kitchen and groans while stretching herself.
“Adelaide, they are customers waiting for you,” a woman in her late forties said.
She put on heavy make up and she was chewing gum loudly.
Adelaide carried the menu, the customers were a couple and she walked slowly to them. She dropped the menu on the table and greeted the couple. She was smiling but the smile disappeared when she saw the guy. She was surprised, even the guy was surprised to see her.
“Do you know her?” The girl that came with the guy asked.
He frantically denied it and Adelaide's eyes widened more as tears rolled down her eyes.
“Excuse darling, I think we have to do some things,” Dalton said.
He quickly dragged Adelaide out of the restaurant, he released her when they got to the parking lot.
“What was that all about?” Dalton asked.
“You said you don't know me and you called the girl darling,” Adelaide said.
“Why are you so surprised about that, you should have been expecting, you don't actually think we will keep dating forever?” Dalton asked.
“But you promised to be there for me and make me happy?” Adelaide asked sadly.
“That was when you were still very rich. I actually tried. I stood by you for over two years. You don't actually think I'll marry a person like you.You are way below my league and my parents have been telling me to stay away from you!!!” Dalton said angrily.
“No, your mom loves me so much, you people are very close to us,” Adelaide said unbelievably.
“That was when you were still rich, they don't want to have anything to do with you again, same with me so let's call it a quit,” Dalton said seriously.
Dalton dropped the bombshell to her before walking away. He told her that he'd be engaged to that girl after that they'll soon get married.
“No you can't do that, we have been dating for two years,” Adelaide cried bitterly.
She cleaned the tears in her eyes and smiled sad. At least she was supposed to be expecting this right, since the tragedy had happened to her family all their rich friends have disappeared, they'll pretend not to know them, she acts like nothing was wrong and went into the restaurant. She is use to pain anyway.
Immediately when Dalton returned where he was sitting with the girl. She asked Dalton what was wrong but he only told her that she mistook him for someone
The girl screamed excitedly while holding the diamond ring in her hand, she found it in the cake she was eating. Dalton quick acting suddenly went on his knee to propose the girl and she accepted it. She was shouting excitedly as the ring slipped into her finger.
“Congratulations,” the people around them shouted.
Adelaide ran into the restaurant with tears in her eyes. The engagement seemed vivid and she almost lost her mind because of it. She brought out her phone that was ringing, Francisco was the caller, she quickly cleaned her tears before picking the call.
“ Are you okay?” Fransisco asked the moment he heard her voice.
“ I'm good, don't worry about me,” she said.
She tried as much as possible not to allow it to show because she knows the type of brother she has.
“I believe you, please take care of yourself,” Fransisco said before hanging up.
