The call of love

Chapter 2
"Georgie Junior"
Georgie and Candy put their coats on and went to office by car. The driver was waiting for them in front of the house.
They arrived in front of a building not too far from the Victoria train station, in the centre of London. The Bateman Enterprises were becoming one of England's most flourishing of England. The fact that a woman was the head of it, fascinated all the business men. They all tried either to get her to marry them, or to put her in their beds.
A group of investors were waiting for Georgie in the sitting room in front of her office.
- Mrs. Bateman, hello. Who is this beautiful young girl, your daughter? She's your spitting image...said one of the business
- She's with me. Her name is Candy said Georgie, come into my office, please, sirs.
They entered Georgie's office and Candy served them some beverage, hot and cold, and some cocktail snacks. Then she took a notepad and she started to take notes. And that's how it was for the whole day. When the appointments were over, Georgie suggested they go into town to eat something in a restaurant. Candy left her notes to Georgie's assistant and this last one will type a report.
The two blonds were in one of London's finest restaurant, eating.
- Your days are pretty full, Georgie, said Candy, is it always like that?
- No, fortunately, said Georgie
- You reassure me, said Candy smiling
- Candy, I like you. I just met you, but I feel I can trust you. You're a brave and nice young girl
- Even if I got expelled from the royal college of St. Paul?
- Why were you expelled? You told me that your cousin set a trap for you?
- Yes, she was also in love with Terry...
Candy told her what happened.
- My God! Said Georgie, the nuns found in what position?
- I was standing next to Terry, that's all...we'd just arrived...not kissing or anything
Saying that, Candy became bright as red and Georgie felt for her, looking at her; she was so prude!
- Have you ever kissed Terry? Asked Georgie point blank
- Yes, said Candy still blushing...I slapped him, and he slapped me, and I slapped him again...
- Whooa! Said Georgie, talk about a cold shower!
- He surprised me...
Georgie thought about her first kiss stolen by Laurent; the prize for winning the boomerang contest.
- How was the kiss? She asked Candy
- It was the most beautiful thing in the world...
- So why did you slap him?
- Well... because...he surprised me... he...
- If he had asked you, would you have said yes?
- No...
- So, he didn't want to run the risk that you would say "no"... I know...
- So it was normal?
- Most of the time, men don't ask if they could kiss you, they act...you said he surprised you. What were you doing before the kiss?
