Chapter 8 Sexual attraction 2

"I have had so many rumors about me taking advantage of you in my workplace and I feel that those rumors are all true. The fact that you bought me a position in that bar made everyone think low of me. You should not have bought that position for me, not everything can be bought with money. I unfairly received the position of a CEO which I did not earn the right way." She explained to him.

"Shuu," Ethan said to her.

"They are all jealous of you and they all wish to be in your position believe me."

"Do not spoil the night, as long as I am with you, what Other people say should never matter to you. Even if they all hate you, at least you have me by your side, I will always stand by you. You are Precious to me, understood?"

She nodded to his gentle words. Her brown eyes stared at him with nothing but trust and fate. She nodded at him and raised her head to him, "what about your image? Would it not be tarnished, imagine a rich and Handsome billionaire like you mingling with a nobody like me." Ethan frowned at her words, "who said you were a nobody?" He asked raising her chin to him. "Agnes no matter what anyone says, it's my life and I get to make the rules, understand?."

Agnes nodded and smiled at him.

"Ethan it is getting late, you had better go home. I will see you tomorrow."

"I would have preferred sleeping at your doorstep, at least I would be sure you weren't too far from me but I will go home, just for you, only for your sake," Ethan said in a convincing tone.

"I would never even think of letting you sleep at my doorstep, so you had better stop with your sweet talks and go back home."

"Just go home, I do not want you to say any more silly things, goodbye," she said, then raised up her toes and gave him a friendly hug.

"Ok. Take care and remember to dream of me," he said and turned, leaving. He started walking towards the exit. She stared at him as he walked away. Ethan suddenly stopped there and turned to her, "are you sure you want me to go, I could stay back and you could stare long at me as much as you want, just say the word," he said walking back to her.

"Ethan please just go home and stop kidding around," she said smiling at him. "Just go, I have our memories with me, I will think of you all through the night," she added.

"Okay okay. Goodnight," he said and turned. This time around he didn't come up with any mischief, he walked out of the house at once. Agnes locked the door as quick as she could and leaned in it. Truth be told, she was fighting herself from telling him to spend the night in her place. Ethan did not just gain her trust, he also gained her heart and very soon she would accept the reality. She had never planned on falling in love or having any form of attraction towards him but here she was continuously thinking about him.

When he left her house, she realized how boring everywhere was. She felt lonely without him by her side. She went to her room, took her bath and went straight to bed. "Tomorrow will be much better than today I guess," she said to herself in a slight tone. Afterwards she drifted to sleep..

The next day...

There was a knock on Agnes's door. She rushed to the door and opened, she knew it was none other but Ethan.

"Ethan you came earlier than expected, have you eaten any thing this morning?"

"See who is making a lot of noise, I came much earlier but you are already dressed up. You look so beautiful by the way," he praised her looks frantically.

Agnes put on a short flair gown, her hair was packed into a bun shape. She also put on a long cowboy boots. As for Ethan, he wore a red polo and a jean pair of trousers, with a canvas and a face cap. "Thanks," she replied, smiling widely at him.

"Should I prepare something for us to eat, it will not take much time," she added, looking at him with those beautiful brown eyes of hers.

"Ok do as you wish, I do not mind at all," he said in a quiet tone.

"So should I come inside or stand outside here and wait for you to finish preparing the meal," his words sounded as though he were serious but the expression he had on his signified a different thing altogether.

"I am sorry, forgive my manners. Come in and take a seat. I will quickly prepare breakfast for the both of us," she said to him.

After some minutes, she came back to the sitting room with a tray. Inside the tray contained two cups of coffee, bacon, eggs and kebab.

She served Ethan his own share. He took a sip of coffee, then he cleared his throat, "wow Agnes, the taste of your coffee gets sweeter each day. I have never tasted any coffee as sweet as yours since I was born. I love it," he praised her. Agnes did not say anything to him, she only blushed out of shyness I guess. He took a handful of bacon and shoved them into his mouth. "Why are you staring at me in such a way, eat something," he forced out his words in a mouthful.

"I have eaten already, I have eaten enough, I do not want to ruin my weight, so do not worry about me. Besides you look more hungry than I had even expected."

Ethan coughed out. "Yuck!"

"What is the problem," Agnes asked, almost in a panic.

"It is nothing, just that you put a lot of something inside it and I do not think I deserve it. I don't..

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to put a lot of spice in it. Please do not be angry," Agnes said, interrupting whatever words he had wanted to say.

Ethan started laughing.

"What is wrong with you and why are you laughing at me?" She asked him, folding her hands.

"You are so funny Agnes, I was not coughing because the food was spicy . The only thing I was trying to say was thank you. Thank you Whitney for taking your time in preparing the meal and secondly thank you for the fact that you put in a lot of love while making this breakfast like we were dating each other, so I needed to thank you.

Agnes tapped him in the head, "did you have to play such expensive prank on me? And besides I wonder why you are over thanking me, it is very unnecessary you know, so please you better stop it."

"You are more special to me than even a boyfriend," she added.

"I am so lucky to have met a man like you and I should be the person saying thank you and not the other way around." She continued to praise him.

"I am equally grateful that I met you in my life," he complimented back.

"You should be lucky this Ethan is in front of you, I have rejected other beautiful girls ever since you came into my life. And no girl has ever made feel the way you make me feel. I am sincerely more than lucky to have you in my life."

He knelt down in front of her and said to her, "be my girlfriend Agnes, accept me as your man.... I promise to always stand by you and you will never regret it." He pulled out a box that was wrapped.

Agnes could not say anything, all she did was stare blankly at him. She closed here eyes and opened them again. "Is this really happening?" She whispered but to the hearing of Ethan.
