His Desired Possession

Proofs and bracelet 💫

I looked at him, and he stood up.

"I found it, but you were gone. So instead of throwing it away, I kept it. Who knew I would meet that brat again?" he shrugged and walked away, smiling, while I watched him disappear.

Then my gaze shifted to the bracelet, and a smile formed on my lips. He kept it! I giggled.

"Not bad, Mr. Knight."

IN THE CAR:

Finally, I found myself in his car as he dropped me off at home. We had an important meeting that day, and I needed my bag with the files.

"Go and grab the files quickly," he instructed. I immediately nodded and rushed to get the files.

After finishing, I came out and saw him waiting for me.

"Let's go," I said, and he nodded.

While in the car, something crossed my mind.

"Mr. Knight, can you drop me off a bit away from the company? I don't want everyone to start assuming things when they see me arriving with you," I said, looking at him, causing him to furrow his brows.

"Do you really think so?" he asked skeptically. I nodded and quickly added, "Please."

He complied with my request just as my mom called at the same time.

"Is it your mom?" he asked, and I nodded. Excusing myself, I explained to her why I hadn't called her the previous day. Of course, I conveniently left out the part where I hugged him.

After the call, he dropped me off, and I made my way to the department, only to find Aria glaring at Leo.

I narrowed my eyes. What was going on?

"Good morning, Mr. Anderson," I greeted him, and he nodded back with a smile.

"Ms. Sharma, come quickly to the meeting hall. The meeting is about to start," he said, leaving while shooting a glare at Aria.

"What happened?" I asked Aria, but she just shrugged and said, "He was irritating her."

"What did he do?"

"Nothing. He just checked my files and said he made a wrong decision in hiring me. Huh? Idiot!" she vented, then headed to the hall.

"Hey, wait!" I ran after her, and we both made our way to the meeting hall.

Entering the hall, I noticed that the Black executives were sitting on one side, while our team occupied the other. I quickly took a seat in the middle, and Aria sat in her assigned spot.

After some time, Mr. Knight, Mr. Antonio Black, and Mr. Anderson entered the room.

To my surprise, Mr. Anderson sat right beside Aria with a smirk on his lips, and she glared back at him.

What's going on?

"Good morning, everyone," both CEOs greeted, and we responded in kind.

After a brief introduction, Mr. Knight pointed at me to begin the presentation.

I felt a bit nervous since it was my first time presenting at a conference.

"Good morning, everyone. As you all know, the upcoming construction project is a significant one, and I would like to present our strategy. I hope you all find it impressive," I said.

I displayed the presentation, and they all watched, nodding along. However, I couldn't help but feel the weight of two pairs of eyes on me.

Aaron Knight!

Antonio Black!

What the hell?

When I finished, I started explaining the strategy, and as I concluded, I received a round of applause.

I sat back in my seat, and Aria gave me a thumbs-up.

I glanced at Mr. Knight-I don't know why. Maybe I expected him to at least nod in acknowledgment.

But when I looked at him, his gaze gave me an unknown... What?

Why was he staring at me like a creep?

"This was an excellent presentation, Aaron, I must say. After all, it was delivered by one of the most beautiful girls," I heard Mr. Black say, narrowing my eyes at him.

Has he gone nuts?

"Talented, Antonio," Mr. Knight's voice grew angrier.

Now what's wrong with him? All the guys seem to have gone nuts. They were glaring at each other, and tension filled the room.

"Keep your mind on your work," Mr. Knight snapped.

"You're right. We have a lot of work to finish," Antonio retorted, smirking. I don't know why, but his words made me feel sick to my stomach.

"Can we get back to work?" Leo intervened, and I let out a sigh of relief as they both ceased their confrontation. What was that all about?
