Chapter 8 - Chapter 7: Do you know how to play games?

Finally they were back into Liam's office. Adrianna held onto her wrist and rubbed them a little.

"Don't rub them too much. It'll become more red. Let me apply ointment" he called for her and open the other room inside his office.

Adrianna followed him into the room and she was once again mesmerized by the view. It was not a room to relax but this is like a cockpit of a plane. Maybe she's exaggerating a little bit.

But still, WOW!. There were so many computers there. Including the one that she never seen before. Right now they were in front of her eyes.

"What is the uses of all this computer?" she asked. Still in wonder.

"They are for work! Sometimes for me to play games. This is only a small part of them, wait until you see the testing room at 8th floor, you will become dizzy then.." Liam explained as he walked to open another door.

How many secret room he has? A room inside a room inside a room. This is like Alice in wonderland.

"Come inside, I'll help to apply some ointment on your wrist" he opened the door for her and she got into the other room.

Now this is the room that she believed his resting room. She can see a queen bed, a wardrobe and another small door, perhaps another room?

"Don't tell me there's another secret room behind that door?" she pointed towards the small door.

Liam laughed "It's my bathroom"

"Oh! you have so many room and door to open before you can get into your bathroom, what happened if you are in hurry?" she asked.

"I have one just outside my office, so I go there if I'm in hurry..." Liam laughed at her question while taking a first aid kit inside the drawer.

"Come sit down" he patted the bed and Adrianna moved to sit on the bed next to him.

She put her toolbox next to her and saw Liam took out a tube of ointment for pain relief and took her wrist. She has a pair of delicate wrist. So, he held them carefully, afraid if he's going to hurt her.

"How did you fix all those machine with this hand?" he muttered.

"I'm not that fragile" Adrianna grumbled. Alicia also used to ask the same question.

After he was done applying the ointment. He moved to one corner of the room. There she saw an air purifier. Her 'victim' for today.

"This is the air purifier, we haven't used this for a long time because my office was equipped with air purifying system. So, I'm planning to give this to the public library" Liam was a regular to one public library near his house. That's the place where he used to study and spent his free time. So, it's a natural for him to give back what he received. He even supported the cost for the construction of the library.

Adrianna admired Liam's generous behavior and she didn't question him further as she brought her toolbox and came to check on the air purifier, when she pressed the on button, there's a sound coming out but it wouldn't turn on.

"I can fix this, can you give me some time on my own?" she requested.

"Sure, take your time. I'll be outside if you need anything" Liam left the room and he smiled.

He wanted to see her in action but since she wanted to be on her own, so, he decided to check on her via his surveillance camera. Adrianna didn't know that he has surveillance camera all around the room.

He moved to turn on his computer and after a few clicking on the keyboard, he can see on his screen the image of Adrianna, she was already on the move.

Then a few second later, he received news from his testing team.

"Boss, the game is ready to be tested!" came a voice from another screen.

"I'll check them..." Liam replied and his fingers moved on his keyboard to start his work but at the same time, his eyes were glancing at the screen, checking on Adrianna. She was doing fine and was engrossed in her work.

At the same time, in the Testing Room, his employees were whispering to each other. This is the first time, they saw their boss wearing a casual clothes while working.

Carol Kim was there too, today she brought along an investor to visit the testing room, she thought Liam was not coming to the office. So, she didn't bring the investors to meet him.

Back in Liam office, he was doing his test as his fingers moved to study the strings of code and at the same time, running the game on the next screen. In between of his work, he never forget to glances at the screen and watch Adrianna. Unknowingly he smiled when looking at her, she really is amazing, she has opened the inside components of the air purifier and was fixing it.

His smiled caused the Testing Room to go in uproar. Today should be marked in history. Their strict boss, the devil himself is smiling. They knew he was involved in an accident few weeks back, could it be the accident changed both his personality and his way of dressing?

An hour passed by, Liam was busy troubleshooting a few software while he tested the new game that his company is going to launch soon. He forgot about Adrianna for a moment not until he felt her presence next to him.

"Are you playing game?" she asked. Her focus were on the screen in front of him and she did not realized there were another screen on display. One from surveillance camera and another one from the Testing Room.

Liam quickly minimized the surveillance camera and he looked at her.

"Done?" he asked

"Yeah, it was not that serious, I just changed the filter and removed the object blocking the vents, it is as good as new. You can go and check!" Adrianna was still staring at the screen.

She never has chances to play games before. She wanted to but she was always busy. Liam looked at her, she was talking but her eyes were focusing on his computer screen.

"I trust you." Liam answered then he stood up and made her sit on his chair.

"Do you know how to play games?"

Adrianna shook her head. "Can I try?" she asked for permission.

"Yes...let me teach you..." he bent down while standing behind her and took her hand and put them on the keyboard and the mouse.

"You put your index finger here and your middle finger here and your right hand should be on the mouse" he was explaining as his hand was moving to guide her hand with his hand on top of her hand.

From this position, the people in the testing room can see their position as the back hug. They were buzzing with gossip. Looked like their boss was on a date. No wonder he seemed different today.

Carol gritted her lips and her hand were fisted. She tried to divert the attention of the investors. How come Liam bring a woman into their company and acting lovey-dovey with her?

"Mr Tanaka, let's go to the conference room." she spoke in English and the translator translated to the investors.

Then they started to walk away but Carol still can hear what they were talking about in the room.

"Adrianna Winters...it's really her!" one of the man exclaimed in surprise.

"Yes, the Supermodel Adrianna Winters. Boss is dating her?"

"Boss taste is totally high class. No wonder he never has girlfriend before, he was trying to catch the goddess herself. Wait? Isn't Adrianna Winters engaged to Jace Phillips?"

"They broke out already, you didn't read the scandal about Jace Phillips cheating on Adrianna?" One of the girl in the room answered. She was one of Adrianna's fan.

"Oh my god! I can't believed that boss is dating my girl crush. Do you think boss will allowed me to get her autograph if I go to his office?" the fan asked his colleague.

They were excited with the new gossip after spending most of their time facing the computer.

Meanwhile, Liam was busy teaching Adrianna how to play the game and he totally forgot that his employees can see what they were doing.

Adrianna was playing the games happily and she laughed whenever she failed to complete the mission. Liam also laughed with her.

"So what do you think of the game?"

"I liked it! is this the one you made?" she smiled as she continued to play.

"Yeah, we haven't released it yet. You are the first person to play" he whispered behind her ears. He can smell her sweet fragrance. It was true. Even his Beta testers were still in the dark.

After hearing him, Adrianna head's made a whiplash and then both of them became stiff. His lips accidently brushed against her cheek and they both stopped moving. Adrianna can feel Liam's warm breath on her skin and the place where his lips connected to her cheeks tingled.

Then, both of them jumped away from their close proximity. Adrianna's blood rushed to her cheek and her heart was thumping as if she can hear them. Liam also turned away, only then he remembered that he was communicating with his team before Adrianna came out and he forgot to turned off the camera and the mic. He quickly turned them off and made a note in his mind, to warn them to shut their mouth about what they have heard and 'seen'.

"I-I'll go outside to take a fresh air" Adrianna announced and she ran away from the room into Liam's main office.

Liam didn't wait for her and just let her go. Then he turned on the screen and the mic.

"What you've seen and heard today is going to be considered as confidential and I don't want outsiders to know" he warned them.

"Okay boss!" the whole testing team answered in chorus. Of course they wouldn't talk about it if they still want to work here and live peacefully.

"The game is running smoothly. Let the marketing team take over next" he talked further before he turned everything off and took a deep breath. Then he went into the room to check on the air purifier. It's working well, as good as new and looked like he's indebted to her once again.

Liam touched his lips. He still can remember the feeling. The soft touch of her cheeks and her sweet smell. The thought alone made his 'little brother' awake with excitement.

"What are you doing little Liam? stop having such thought about her" he warned his 'little brother' and went into the bathroom to calm himself down.

Twenty minutes later, he walked out of the room into his office and saw Adrianna. She was sitting on the chair in front of his working table. Adrianna was still calming her beating heart and when Liam came out of the door, she quickly took her phone and pretending to do something.
