Not that I care anyway, but that sure hurts my ego. I have been the man ,ladies make moves at and throw themselves into my arms.
And for the first time I decided to throw that ego away and make a move, now I am being made a joke maybe I am not as good as her ex.
I decided to ignore them,so my secretary took my suitcase and opened the door to my office. I loosen my tie while she arranged the folder, put on the air and left.
I sat down and opened my system. But my mind still can't understand the scene of Val and Dan.I
don't know why but it kept flashing in my memory.
The secretary was done with the office set up, she bowed and left. I shut my system down and removed my mediated glasses.
I decided to ignore it and continue again. I tried to video call one of my Brazilian models for my next fashion show.
After minutes of our discussion,my mind was completely rubbed,I can see her talking but can't hear her.
"So as I was saying,the….”.
"I am sorry Jillian, can I call you back?" I got annoyed with everything around me and shut my system then I dash out of the office.
"Can you atleast kiss my finger so it can heal faster?"Dan told Val.
She slapped his head and they laughed.
"Mr Dan, we need to talk right now!”
I ordered with every fierce raging inside of me.
**VAL’S POV**
This is serious,Dan is in trouble,I told him about his loud laughter.
Now he has attracted the boss’s attention,I wonder how he is going to roast him inside the office with those rude words.
I got a flashback about the other day I visited, but he was a totally different person outside work.
"Finally some quietness"
Kamsy snapped as soon as Dan entered the Boss’s office.
"Hopefully there will be a change in this company. Some lunatics need to go home,"Jennifer added.
"You guys are even noisy too,can you guys calm down please"Sarah, one of our colleagues, said and hissed.
"Are you talking to me,wait till I regain my rightful position in this company"Jenifer snapped back.
"Rightful position, what a joke! He said it loud and clear ,your papa is rich isn’t a guarantee that you are on the same level with him. You can follow regular rich boys but you will still be at the bottom of the class of girls that he mingle with"Pete cuts in.
"Who is this male gossiper!"Jennifer threw back at him.
"Can you guys keep shut!!" Fred shouted,his voice was strong enough to calm everywhere for some seconds.
"Mmtcheeeewww snitches everywhere"Kamsy snapped.
I was standing all these while, I slowly sat on my seat , worried. Few minutes later,Dan finally came out of the office. I looked at him,my eyes asking the questions for my lips.
He smiled back that’s the code that nothing serious happened. I sighed relieved.
The secretary called my attention.
"Ms Val,Boss, I want to meet with you".
But what now, please let it not be another threat of firing me, after these weeks at home,I literally think less of the boss.
I had a huge crush on him before now then the incident and followed by that kiss, it kept ruining my thoughts. I tried so hard to get over him.
He is not my type.
An arrogant man with charming features sounds dangerous. I was glad, I am now able to keep him off my head because I know it won't end well if I don’t get over him quickly.
Crush happens right but it can't be Love again. I walked into the office and found him staring at his computer.
"You sent for me Boss".
I tried not shy away, I had flashes of the kiss the other day, it was hard but I was determined to fight every feeling I have for him.
He put down his glass and looked up, his piercing blue eyes stabbing mine.
"I thought you were a diligent worker the first time I tested your potential not knowing you were just empty. Why the noise, is this a kid's playground?”
Wow ! I didn’t expect less though.
"I'm sorry boss,it's ..”
"I don't want to hear about it".
I kept quiet and looked down immediately as then he suddenly winced in pain.
I looked and found his hand bleeding,I was confused. It happened suddenly and my hand was itching to help but I am not sure if he will welcome the idea.
“Well what are you staring at ,aren't you our nurse attending to everyone in the company?" He did hoarsely with a quirked eyebrow.
He was throwing shade at my hospitality at Dan. I sighed and went to him.
"Get the first aid in the bathroom"he instructed.
I nodded and rushed to get the first aid box, I got back to him and started dressing the wound.
"Sorry".
I kept saying after each application. I don't know if he hurt himself because of his anger towards me, but one thing is certain that I am in very big trouble.
