Claimed By Him Without Love (#Wattys2016)

Part 14

I reached my floor at 9.07 a.m.

I hope Mr. James Ashton will not be there....speak of the devil...

He was talking to Mel. I went there and he looked at me. My whole body shivered at his presence. He was still looking at me. I nervously went to Mel and stayed far away from him.

''Umm...hi..Mel.'' i said and hurriedly went towards my Office.

I shut the door behind me after reaching my office and leaned on the door.

I closed my eyes and took a huge breath.

Why i become so nervous infront of him? Uff... Mr. James Ashton you are so... i don't know what... urgh!!

There was a knock at the door and i jumped.

''Liz are you there?''

Oh..it was Ben.

I opened the door then went to sit down on my chair. Ben sat opposite to me and gave me the coffee.

''So.. where were you last night?'' I asked her while sipping the coffee.

''Umm..i...''

Suddenly the door jerked opened and entered Mr. David Peterson.

''You are here and i was looking for you everywhere.'' He said to Ben normally.

''Umm...i came to make her coffee''

''Okay it is your last day in this floor.  Stay here how much you want till today only.''

''What do you mean?'' We both said at the same time.

''Oh! I think you don't know about the new arrangements.'' He said whistling.

There was a peep! from my computer and it showed that My boss is needing me..i mean for work.

''Excuse me'' i said and went to his door.

Now i am again nervous! What if he called me to fire me?

The door opened itself. The man was standing right in front of me and i was looking into his eyes.

Why are you my boss?

What if he was not Liz? Would you have married him?

No...he will never marry me...he hates me but i don't know why.

''Are you coming inside or not?'' He said calmly.

''Umm...'' he moved aside and i went in.

He sat on his chair and gestured me to sit on another chair opposite his desk. I sat nervously.

He was again looking at me but this time he seems to be....calm? But the stunt i did last night...i though he would be angry...not angry even fierce...

I started feeling sweaty and my body was going cold under his gaze.

''Actually i called you to know what you did for the company since the last month is very appreciating. You went before my dad started his speech last night. So i was thinking to thank you personally.''

He was so calm that i started doubting whether he is the same person or someone else?

''Umm... thank you for appreciating..and it was rude that i didn't wait for the speech..but there was some reason i couldn't stand..'' i said looking at my fingers.

''This is for you.'' He gave me a card which i assume was a credit card.

''No..i don't need it. I already have one.''

''It is a way for thanksgiving. And i will be glad...i mean my dad and the progress we did..you deserve it.'' He said thoughtfully.

''Okay.'' I accepted the card.

Why are you so calm? I think he forgot what happened last night...yeah he was drunk... but how could he forgot that he kissed me...

Are you disappointed Liz?

No...i mean...leave it! Okay lets assume he forgot the kiss but the hard slap i gave to him was unforgetable.

Hehehe...yeah i gave him a hard slap on his left cheek with all the strenght i had in my body. His cheek was so red after that but my hand was stinging too.

''What are you smiling at?''

Sh*t!

''No..i mean..yes..i mean thank you for the gift.'' I smiled at him.

If he forgot last night then it will be easier for me to work here..to be around him..right?

''One more thing. You are appointed as my full time assistant which mean you will be doing all my work. Each and eveything you were doing before plus all the work of Miss Benny too. She is appointed as an assistant of Dave. And your work is starting today.'' He said and looked at his watch.

''Bring me the coffee. Now.''

Wait! Am i dreaming? What the hell is this?

''But..''

''There is no but Miss Liza. Now start your work. You can go now.''

How could he!! Urgh! How will i manage the works now?

I think he remembered last night...and so this is his way of revenge..

''Umm...okay sir.''

He nodded looking at my...lips?

Sh*t! I turned around and was out of the door in a second.
