Chapter 8 Flirt

I slowly worked up to the door he had pointed to.

Opening it and realizing it was a small lounge.

I ran my hands through the shelves which were filled with books.

There was a bed and a desk beside it.

He must spend some time in here because I saw some clothes.

Taking another door, I walked into the bathroom and exhaled.

It looks so neat and nice, it smells so good, I could smell his scent in there.

I quickly went into the bathtub, took off my clothes, and stepped into the warm water, sighing with relief as it helped my tired muscles.

I leaned back with comfort but when I recalled that I had no time to enjoy I hurried up.

When I got out of the bathtub, I dried my body and my hair with is towel.

I still felt tired.

I couldn't wait for tonight, I would make sure I had a good sleep.

My eyes caught one of Adrian's shirts in the small wardrobe.

I slowly walked up to it and pulled it out.

I brought it to my nose.

It smells so good.

I shouldn't be doing this right now...But I can just see how it will look on me and I quickly put it on.

So I put on the shirt and I stared at myself in the mirror.

The shirt stopped at my mid-thigh...

I smiled... loving how good it felt.

I slowly sat on the bed.

It felt so soft so I lay down on it and fully felt how soft it is.

I grinned feeling so comfortable.

"Leah... Leah wake up."

I woke up with the start of seeing Adrian, by tapping my arm.

The furious look in his eyes erased every form of sleepiness in me.

Do you have any idea what time it is?

I quickly sat up and glanced at the wall clock.

8:20!

Oh my God

"I'm so sorry"....I didn't mean to fall asleep.....I..I just...stuttered.

"Why are you wearing my shirt".

I quickly looked down.

Dammmn it.

Why hadn't I taken this off?

I couldn't bring myself to answer that.

I told you to leave before the other employees get here. My secretary is my office now. Tell me, how are you going to leave here now?

I imagined what would happen if Stella, his secretary sees me walking out of his lounge.

She would think I'm sleeping with the boss and I know very well how news travels fast around the company.

I'm not ready to become an outcast.

I quickly stood up and grabbed Adrian's hand.

"What should we do? Please think of a way I can get out of here without being seen!"I panicked.

Instead of saying something, his eyes ran through my body and then our gazes locked.

I swallowed as my breath quickened and my heart raced so fast.

Was it because of our proximity?.

All my never-ending were seemed more alive than usual.

He shouldn't look at me like this.

Adrian cleared his throat and moved backward.

You...you... you should take off that shirt and put on your clothes. I'll try to get Stella to leave and then I will be waiting for you in my car. Don't keep me waiting. We're already running late. He warned and walked away.

I quickly changed my clothes.

I tiptoed to the door and slowly opened the door, I peered in and out to see if I would see signs of Stella.

Sighing with relief, I dashed out of the office and headed to the elevator.

When I got to the parking lot I saw him waiting in his SUV.

A man whom I assumed to be his driver was already at the driver's side.

Get in, he instructed and I turned around to get into the passenger seat.

I scoffed.

He can't even pretend to be a gentleman and get the door for me.

When I go in, he drives off.

We were seated beside each other with a little distance between us.

The ride started quietly.

I could hear the shuffling of papers so I looked in his direction to find him going through the project.

He looked so focused and attractive

At that moment, I felt so unreal that I slept with this man.

I stared at his eyebrows..his cheeks, his perfect nose... his lips

At that moment, he licked his lower lip and it felt as if he had licked me.

His eyes shifted towards my direction and I looked away hurriedly.

"Why are you staring at me" he asked.

I wasn't.

You were.

Aishhhhh.

I.. I.. I was staring at the window beside you.

Good one, you were checking me out.

My eyes dilated.

I can't let him think that..

No! I was simply looking at the files in your hand and l'm a bit worried if the meeting will turn out well.

It would, I have gone through it and I didn't really think there would be a problem. He said and closed the files.

You are barely looking through the pages.

"It is as if you don't know who you are talking to, miss Leah, the driver said, young master studied at Harvard University. He had always had straight A's since he was a child. At 24 he had already completed his BSc and master's.

I glanced at Adrian.

Wow....Handsome and intelligent.

Oh, Taylor, you don't have to say it to everyone.

It's worth bragging sir.

"I hope to go for my master's before I turn 30".

When it comes to intelligence,l'd say you are average but I wouldn't wait until you're thirty, but would you ever do well then?

Ouch.

The admiration I felt for him before disappeared into thin air.

Does he think he's the only one who can achieve great things in life?

Fucking asshole.

I refuse to bring myself to say anything to him after that and neither did he.

Why is he staring at me?.

Was there something wrong with me that this asshole wants to point out?.

I quickly assessed myself.

I was wearing a black skirt and a white shirt and a pair of stilettos.

I think my hair looks okay or is it rough?

"Have you had breakfast "? He suddenly asked.

I frowned.

Why is he asking?

I shook my head," No."

Are you hungry?

Again... why is he asking?

It's not as if he cares.

I'm not hungry, I replied to him but at that moment, my stomach chose to betray me by growing.

I quickly held onto it to muffle the sound.

"You are hungry". He said.

What's it to you, jerk?

He placed something on his thigh.

I glanced at it and realized it was a sandwich.

My stomach glowed again.

Eat up, we have five minutes more.

Thanks.

This does not change the fact that he is a jerk.

I tore the lid and opened it and started to eat it in a hurry.

I should have asked for water before eating.

I gazed halfway through the snack, and most of the bread felt as if it had accumulated on my chest.

Miss Leah, do you need water, Taylor said stretching it to me with his free hand.

I quickly took the bottle of water from him and drank practically half the bottle.

I sighed as I felt normal again.

I glanced at Adrian.

"Are you okay", he asked awkwardly.

I ignored him and continued eating slowly.

This man is fucking hard to understand.
