Alex said calmly: "Come in." and the wooden door opened and a woman with a yellow dress that complements her face and red eyes that looks like raging flames came in.
...
It was Samantha. She just woke up and remembered everything. She blushed and shouted in her mind.
What did I do?!?
I cried on the chest of the most regarded and respected bachelor in the world. How am I going to live!!!
While Samantha thought of that, she remembered how he was patient with her crying. Her heart beat faster and faster by the second.
Why am I feeling this way?
Why is my heart beating so fast??
Am I falling in love with him??
She needs to say her thanks, or maybe he will regard her as an ungrateful woman. She fixed her yellow dress and fixed her hair. She calmed her beating heart and went out of the room. She saw an older man who has a worried expression.
The old man saw Samantha, and he hurriedly bowed: "Ma'am, are you fine?'
Samantha nodded and felt grateful: "Yes, where is Alex--er... I mean Mr. Walton?"
The butler said worryingly: "He's in the library. Since you came here 8 hours ago, he has been in the library working. Both of you missed lunch, so I wanted to invite the two of you and eat dinner."
Samantha was shocked.
I slept for eight whole freaking hours?!?
She hurriedly opened her phone, and it was already evening. "Thank you for telling me the time. I will invite Mr. Walton myself."
The butler was grateful. Alex never listened to him and always kept working even if he missed meals. He was only put here by his parents because they thought that Alex would not take care of his body. They cherished their genes in Alex and did not care about the two younger brothers.
It was only recently that they started bugging Jason to get married and give them a grandchild, they were tired of continually annoying Alex to get married.
The butler led Samantha to Alex's home office. Then he left to prepare their dinner. Samantha calmer herself and knocked on the door.
*Knock**Knock**Knock*
She put her ear near the door and said: "Mr. Walton?"
Then she heard a man's voice from the other side: "Come in."
She opened the door and saw a man dressed in a tuxedo. His eyes look like the deep sea. His Adam's apple was considered perfection. Just by sitting there, he gave the vibe of an emperor.
"Umm, the butler told me to invite you to eat," she said meekly. She thought that Alex was gonna refuse, But a man's gentle voice rang in her ears: "Okay, let's go." then the man stood up and walked towards her.
Every step he made her heart beating so fast. She ran towards downstairs leaving the amused Alex.
...
Alex saw Samantha's face down while eating. She was still embarrassed by what happened earlier. Alex noticed it and tried to calm the atmosphere, but what he said made it worse.
"So, have you thought about my offer?"
