Chapter 3 The way he flirts

Georgina's POV

I take a deep breath. I managed to explain to him what kind of business I have.

Now that he asks me that question, I know he's testing me. That's the reason why I did my research and made sure that I would choose the right offer.

"Livius," I stopped.

My head aches. I've had this weird tightness in my chest whenever I say his name, which bothers me.

"Livius, I know that SJD Constructions was one of the sought-after companies to build and renovate different infrastructures. That's why I am choosing the second one. Our technology will save you time and money. You can also promote environmental concerns and awareness."

His brow arches. I cleared my throat again. "If you do that, your company will also benefit from this," I added.

He crosses his legs and looks at me meaningfully. I got conscious again. I feel like I will melt if he keeps on gazing at me like that.

I look away and act like I'm a bit busy with my laptop. Livius was too charismatic. I'm also a girl, and I can see and sense that character in him.

I have to guard my garden. I recklessly surrendered it before. That's the reason why my son Alejandro came out of this world too early.

I said too early because I never regretted having him in my life. "I see. I thought you would ask for both. It looks like you've done your research, Georgina," he softly murmurs.

I suddenly wished to see Livius's face. I turned around, and I was stunned by what he did next.

He grabbed my hand and pulled me closer. I was taken aback. That was smooth as heck! "Livius?!" I exclaimed.

His body and face were too close! What is his deal? My heart is beating so fast that I can't breathe anymore. I feel like he's stealing my lifeline!

"Who am I?" I look at him.

Why is he asking? Out of the blue, he's asking such a weird question. "Huh? Why are you asking me? Don't tell me you didn't know who you are?" I joke.

Oh boy! I saw how his face frowned. I bite my lower lip when I realize my mistake. I bow my head to apologize, but I bump his chin. I heard how he groans.

He let go of my hand and massaged his chin. I raise my hand and shove away his just to check his face.

"Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry Livius!" I exclaimed worriedly. I feel like I want to cry. This is an important meeting, but I fuck it up!

What am I doing in my life?! I'm here to get his interest in my company, not to be rude.

"Does it hurt Livius? Should I call your company doctor?" I suggest in panic.

I'm really doomed! Mr. Sajavedra shakes his head. He held my hand and stopped me from touching his face.

I thought he would let them go, but suddenly he intertwined our fingers and raised them.

My heart skips a beat. My chest tightens more. No other men had done this before. Is he flirting with me?! Oh gosh!

"Your palm was still soft and still smaller than mine," he commented, smiling sweetly.

'Huh? Why is he smiling? What did he just say? Still?'

I was about to stand up, but he pulled my hands up until I landed on his lap. My eyes dilated.

"Livius? What are you doing?!" I ask.

This is not how strangers greet each other. This is my first time meeting Alexandro Livius Sajavedra!

My eyes landed on him again. Wait a second. Why didn't I notice it right away? I feel like he's...

"Are you afraid that I'll do something?" he whispers. I look at him and our current position.

"Isn't it obvious? Sir, I am here for business. I have no plans of using my body to close the deal. So please, let go of me," I begged.

I don't want to push him. I want to see what he will do. I wonder if he will listen and respect me as a woman. He laughs and lets go.

I take a seat and keep a distance, but not that long. I need to be professional and wait for his decision. He sighed.

"Did you have-"

He was interrupted by a call. I look at the screen. It was written, honey. It's my son. I grab my phone and swipe the answer button.

"Hello, honey?" I answered.

"Mommy! How's everything? Did I disturb you? I'm eating my snacks so I ask my teacher to have my phone and call you a bit. I wanna check on you," Alejandro says. That made me grin. My son was a really sweet and caring boy.

"Don't worry. I am doing fine, honey. Enjoy your snacks, okay? I'll see you later. I love you," I remarked.

I heard her giggle. "Okay, mommy. I love you more. Bye-bye!"

I smiled while looking at the screen. "A boyfriend?" Livius asks in such a deep but threatening tone.

I turn my face and look at his face. I feel like his face is staring through my soul and burning me. I think he's asking for very personal info.

"That's a personal question, sir. Do I have to answer it?"

He looks at me in the eyes. A pain flashed in his eyes, which I didn't understand. He looks down and then turns on his side.

I have this feeling that I need to apologize but I don't know why. Is this normal? What am I guilty of?

"Livius..." I whispered and grabbed his arms.

He looks at me, and our eyes meet. His eyes were really beautiful. I feel like he's pulling me into a dream in the middle of the morning.

I heard the door open, but I didn't care because I was too drawn by this man's gaze.

"My gosh, Alexandro! Why aren't you answering your fucking phone?!" a woman roars.

I was about to check on her when Livius held my palm and bit it between my thumb and index fingers. I look at him, then I realize he's putting something in my hand.

"What is this-ump!" I moan.

His lips pressed against mine. His lips were soft! "Thank you, love. You finally say yes..." he whispered.

What did he just say? Say YES to fucking what?!

"Alexandro Livius Sajavedra! What the hell is the meaning of this?!" she roars again.

I stood up, but suddenly he grabbed my waist and made me sit on his lap once again.

"Can you stop yelling, Maxi? You're scaring my fiancée! She finally agreed with my proposal. Don't ruin this moment," Livius says.

I was stunned and dumbfounded because of what I just heard. Did he just say that I'm his FIANCEE?!

What the hell is going on?! I look at the girl in front of us. She's beautiful and looks expensive. Instead of checking her features, I stopped. I look at Livius again.

"What is going on, Livius?" I whispered in his ears.
