"Mr.kim?" Lilly was taken back to see a man in the lady's washroom but she was more startled when she realized it was Mr.Kim a.k.a Jordan's secretary. *What is he even doing here?* she thought while he stood rooted to his spot, completely mum as if he wasn't expecting anybody to barg into the washroom.
"Mr.Kim what are you doing here?"
"O-oh Ms.Lilly I just came here to check if all the taps were working or not. I apologize for invading your privacy. I'll leave now!" He slightly smiled and left before she could even get the chance to speak further. While he passed just beside her, the red marks on his neck caught her attention. *Woah hickeys? When did old people start hooking up? Tch!* she let it slide.
She stepped to wash her hands but was confused again *checking the taps? Aren't there any plumbers in this big ass company* . She just huffed in annoyance and shrugged her thoughts. She finished her business and walked back to her friends who were busy chitchatting while having their lunch.
"What took you so long, eat fast before the food gets cold" Grace exlaimed as she saw Lilly walking to their dining table.
Lilly just hummed and sat down to have her lunch hoping that they didn't see her having conversation with Tony because she was too embarrassed to explain them everything that's been going on lately.
"Are you and Mr.Jordan Dean close?" Sarah questioned out of no where because she still couldn't get the fact out of her mind about how her boss treated this new girl. Lilly stopped eating as soon as she heard that question. She didn't expect that, she herself didn't had any answers for that because she had no idea what relationship she had with Jordan. Was he her boyfriend? No ! that's because he never confessed back to her. Were they friends? Or Were they just co-workers just like he said? Or may be strangers? It was just too complicated. Trying not to get surprised she tried to play it cool. "We just know eachother"
"And?" Sarah continued. Lilly lifted her head up and looked at her other friend's faces that were now eagerly staring at her out of curiosity wondering what she would answer, not even caring about their food. Lilly found it too hilarious but she stopped herself from laughing.
"And what? That's it! " Lilly declared but Sarah wasn't satisfied with that answer at all. She didn't want to force Lilly to answer so she just changed the topic.
After they finished their lunch they all headed to their respective work while Lilly informed her friends that she only worked half time in there and later she headed to the CEO's office.
She knocked on his door and waited but there was no answer from the otherside. She stepped in anyway to see Jordan seriously working on his files while not even paying attention at her. She stood in her sport and stared at him, hoping he would notice her presence but offcourse he didn't. Slowly her gaze shifted towards his face observing all its features, how his eyebrows were knitted out of concentration on his work *Not gonna lie he looks hot when he is serio-* her thoughts were cut off.
"Done checking me out? If yes tell me the business you are here for!" He coldly blurted, not even moving his eyes from the file.
Lilly was little scared by his cold aura. *He acted too nice back then and now he is cold again. What's this man's problem? Harmonal imbalance?* she rolled her eyes at him.
"I worked hear half time so I came here to inform you that I'll be leaving for now"
"Where will you go?" He questioned while turning the page.
*Did he already forget about the half time thing we talked in the morning?*
"I'll go to the library where I usually work Mr.Jordan!" She said it in an obvious tone.
Taking the pen and signing his papers, he nodded while still concentrating on his work. "Ok then, you can leave after you have your lunch"
"I already had my lunch so I'll be leavi-"
He raised while frowning " When?"
"I had it with Ms.Sarah and her friends in the office cafeteria"
He tilted his head to the right as if he was amused and confused at the same time "And who gave you permission to have lunch with them in the office cafeteria?"
Lilly scoffed at his attitude "But-" Jordan didn't let her speak. "Do you love me or them?"
"EHH?" Lilly was in disbelief after hearing his question. Nobody could win against him in arguing so Lilly stayed quite not wanting answer his question because he was purposefully bringing her into a situation like this, such a teaser.
"I'm waiting for your answer" He demanded with a playful smirk .
*Aish! This jerk* She had no choice but to answer him so she quitely mumbled "You!".
"Right!" He stood up from his desk while closing his file with a smile of victory and walked towards her. "Then let's go have lunch together".
"B-But I just had my lunch and I'm already full " Jordan didn't care to listen to her, he held her hands and dragged her out of the company's back door.
Tired of arguing she gave up.
.
.
"What would you like to order sir?" A waiter arrived at their table. Jordan waited for Lilly to order but she was staring back at his eyes, pleading that she was already full. Seeing her awful condition he chuckled and ordered his food "And also get some choco chips ice-cream for her" he told the waiter.
As soon as the word 'ice-crem' hit Lilly's ears, her doe eyes lit up with excitement. She also wondered how he knew her favorite one but that wasn't important for her now because all that she wanted to do was to savour her ice-cream. She liked this side of him rather than the cold bossy one.
Jordan saw the excitement in her eyes and just shook his head while smiling but shortly a girl on the next table caught his attention. She was seducingly smiling at him which disgusted him so looked at back at Lilly who was busy staring at the streets through the window beside her, which made him to arc his brows *How could she just ignore a personality like me and stare somewhere else while other girls are dying to get a chance with me* he thought and that's when an idea hit him.
He looked back at the same lady who was trying to seduce him. He smirked while staring back at her and purposefully made a sound with his shoes which successfully gained Lilly's attention.
Lilly looked at Jordan and noticed him staring at something, she followed his gaze and caught a woman who was almost halfnaked staring back at him with a magnetic smile. Lilly raised her eyebrows at the scene infront of her. Was she jealous? Heck no! She was eager to know about how far it would go because she already knew how Jordan was a very respected man and he was playing these tricks purposefully to tease her.
Lilly looked back at the lady who was now leaning on the table and was licking her lips. She snorted under her breath while trying to control her giggles. It was a complete entertainment show right there.
*What the fish!* Jordan thought. He was startled by the lady's actions and couldn't continue to stare back at her since he already knew that it was going overboard. A snort brought him back out of his thoughts to notice Lilly hardly trying to control her chuckles but soon she gave up and started laughing while holding her stomach tight.
He felt embarrassed on getting the idea about Lilly knowing his intentions but seeing her happy for the first time brought a genuine smile on his face.
On the other side she stopped laughing as soon as she caught his smile and looked into his eyes. They both stared at eachother, it felt as if the time had stopped.
...
"Your order is ready sir!" Their staring session was interrupted by the waiter. "No wait, we want to change our table" Jordan declared since he didn't felt like sitting there anymore due to that creepy lady.
"Sure sir, Do you want a different table in here or do you prefer a private one?"
Jordan smirked at it while intensly staring at Lilly "Definitely a very private one" His lines made her blush but she didn't make it too obvious as the waiter was still looking at them.
They were escorted to a private table which looked even more comfortable than before, also had a beautiful scenery on one side rather than the view of streets.
.
.
Jordan was having his lunch while Lilly savoured her ice-cream. Flashbacks of that lady flashed in her brain which unknowingly led her to let out some chuckles but she shut her mouth on seeing Jordan glaring at her.
"Why?" He was annoyed.
Lilly pressed her lips together trying not to laugh again "Do you like her Mr.Jordan?" she asked playfully, trying to tease him.
"Why? Are you perhaps jealous Ms.Lilly?" He smirked .
"Um?" For a few seconds she pretended to think for an answer ... but soon declared "NOPE!"
He scoffed in disbelief "Why? Shouldn't you feel jealous when the person you LOVE looks at other women?"
Lilly rolled her eyes at how he stressed the word 'love' and how he keeps on repeating that she loves him "No Mr.Jordan I don't have the right to be jealous YET"
"YET? And why is that?" He was puzzled and was eagerly staring at her to answer.
She hid her smug smile and innocently said " Well Mr.Jordan that's because you never told me that YOU LOVE ME TOO!?"
GOTCHYA!
