Chapter 5 Surviving him

Mila pov ...

Stepping into my house all I could think about was Angel Harris, his chestnut brown eyes and his perfectly chiselled face was all around in my head

He has inscribed his image in my mind and there was nothing I could do about it

Mila..... How was your first day working for your new boss?" my mom yelled from the living room

Fine Mom.... nothing out of the ordinary happened, " I yelled back as my mind drifted back to the incident that happened with Angel

My mom replied an okay as I walked up to my room both tired and exhausted as the events of today flowed my mind endlessly

Working with him would be hell, you know, " my subconscious taunts me nonstop as I walked into my room

Surprise!" I soon heard Maya scream as I got into my room

Maya...... What are you doing here by this time? " I asked her extremely shocked she was here

What girl... Can't I spend time with my best friend anymore, " she asked smiling widely

Rolling my eyes at her, I pulled her into a tight hug

I needed this, " I whispered as I savoured in the comfort that her hug brought

Hey Mila are you okay, " she asked pulling me back to look me in the eyes

Taking in a deep breath, I mentally prepared myself to let out all my anger but before I could speak Maya said

Is it about your new CEO, " she asked

Yes Maya and he is a pain in the butt, I just couldn't believe that he is Mr Harris son," I said sounding a bit frustrated

So what's his name, " Maya asked as she picked up her phone

Angel Harris... " I said out loud and even the sound of his name made me weak in knees

Angel Harris right, " Maya asked as she typed none stop on her phone

Maya what are you doing, " I asked unsure of what she was up to

Darling, I'm researching his sorry ass, if he is going to mess with you, I'm going to mess with him first," Maya said grinning devilishly

Maya don't do anything like that OK, just let it be, "I tried to reason with her

Oh, fine Mila has it your way...... But thinking about it, just take a look at him, goddamn he is so cute," she said smiling at her phone

Mila why don't you make him fall in love with you, that you can control him and the company, "She said smirking

Maya No..... " I screamed in disgust as I blushed looking away

Maya stared at me for while as if she was analysing every feature of my body, as a playful smile came to play so casually on her face

Oh my goodness..... you already like your new boss, " She screamed in amusement

No ..... goodness no, I hate him that all I feel for him..... HATE..... So stop saying things like that, " I scolded her as I walked over to the closet to change my clothes with only one name in mind

Angel Harris ...

..............................................................

I was so determined to prove myself to Mr Harris by any means necessary

So I woke up 3 hours before my call time, got ready quickly and took the next train out

" During the night, Maya little outburst on the internet gave me the idea of finding out a few things about my new boss

"so I got his favourite coffee shop and his favourite takeout palace

While on my way to the office, I stopped by his favourite coffee shop to get him his morning coffee

Please can I get Angel Harris usual," I asked the brunette barista and soon enough I had his coffee in my hand

This was going well so far, " I smiled to myself as I hurried over to the company

Mr Harris should be here any moment from now, " I said to myself as I stood by his door awaiting his arrival

And just like I predicted he walked in looking as breathtaking as ever, each step he took towards me cause a huge storm in my heart that I tried all I could to keep my eyes fixed on him

Sir your Coffee, " I said with the coffee straight out to him

" He looked at me with those captivating eyes of his that made me bare and exposed to his gaze

" The gaze was so intense that I look away, trying to calm the raging storm in my heart

Look at me....... " He commanded forcing me to look up at him again

But looking at him this time, there was something not right ...... He looked rather drunk or should I say hanged over and there was something in his eyes he was trying so desperately to hide

Was that pain..... " I asked myself as I could feel a slight tightness in my chest

I didn't know what to do or say as many questions ran endlessly in my mind

Your coffee......" that was all I could say as I handed the coffee to him with shaky hands

" Taking it he looked at it and his expression changed as a soft smile came out on his face

I could see he was having an internal battle within as his expression changed immediately to its normal intimidating demeanour

Don't you have better things to do Miss Brown, " he spat out nonchalantly

And next time I can buy my coffee," he said pouring the coffee out right in front of me

" Mr Harris soon walked into his office leaving me there in my misery

His words can't get to me, " I reassured myself as I took a deep breath suppressing the feelings that churned deep within me as I walked over to my table

" So many questions invaded my mind as I thought of many reasons why Mr Harris would be drunk on a weekday and the look of pain I saw in his eyes worried me the most

" I was soon broken out of my wandering thoughts when I received a call from Mr Harris

Mila... I need you, " I heard him say through the phone

I hurriedly went over to his office as I opened the door with shaky hands

You called for me sir, " I replied trying my hardest to put a smile on my face

"Still with that look, that put my whole world on a standstill

Mr Harris looked at me so intensely, with his eyes trailing down my body, as his eyes soon lingered on the exposed skin beneath my dress, he unconsciously smirked never taking his eyes away from my body

" Feeling so exposed and insecure under his gaze, as his eyes on me were currently making me feel things I shouldn't be feeling

Mr Harris........" I called out for him breaking the insatiable feeling that was threatening to choke me

He soon looked back up at me as his eyes changed to their normal hooded form

Miss Brown where are the files for the shareholders meeting, " he asked with a stern expression on the face

Already sent them to your email, " I replied

And the invoice of the moon suite construction," he asked again

Sent it also to your email as well, I also colour-coded them so you can look through it easily," I said smiling loving I was doing a good job

Mr Harris wanted to say something, but he didn't as he looked at me his eyes showing unreadable expressions

OK you may leave now, " he ordered me

Smiling to myself happy I was having the upper hand, I was about to leave when he stopped me

Miss Brown ..... Pack your bags we are going on a trip in a week

He said and I froze in my tracks immediately

A Trip with Angel Harris

Why does the universe hate me...
