Chereads / Tomboy (deception) / Chapter 9 - His company

Chapter 9 - His company

Olivia woke up with a sharp headache, she groaned and her hand went to her temple, kneading it softly. She got out of the bed to realize she was still in her yesterday's clothes. She yawned and wondered what happened last night, how she got to be in her room. She undressed and went into the bathroom, she searched the shelf in the bathroom for aspirin which she took to numb her headache.

After a steamy shower, she left the bathroom for her closet where she got in a business suit. Drying her hair, she put on her wig to complete her male look before going downstairs.

Her aunt was already sitting on the dinning with a cup of coffee as she skim through the papers as usual.

"Good morning aunt" she greeted with a yawn and pulled out a chair to seat on.

Grace watched her very action before shaking her head slowly, "what happened to knowing how to take care of yourself?"

"Aunt, don't start now. What really happened last night anyway?"

"I will tell you the one I know. Kane brought you home, took you upstairs to your room and even offered to undress you" she watched the shock crept into her face and enjoyed every minute of it.

"Please tell me you didn't let him do that!" She exclaimed and as if remembering something, she breathed a relief sigh "oh, you didn't. I woke up still dressed" she smiled "thanks aunt, you are the best" she took her coffee and sipped from it.

"Don't thank me yet, next time and I mean if there happens to be a next time, I will let him do what he wants to do and I mean it" Grace warned.

Olivia smiled, "come on aunt, you wouldn't to that to your niece would you?" Her phone started ringing before Grace could reply and she brought it out her pocket to see Kane was the one calling, "why, would you look at that? Kane is calling" she told her aunt before she picked up the call "hey buddy what's up?"

"Glad you are completely sober" Kane's voice rang out with a light chuckle "I almost thought you are done for."

"Oh come on man, one's supposed to get wasted once in a while" she chuckled when Grace glared at her.

"But not the way you were yesterday. Grace almost killed me with her eyes last night."

"Like she is doing to me right now."

"She is there? Call you later" he scurried to end the call while Olivia laughed.

"Kane is scared of you" she announced.

"Why would he be?"

"Said you almost killed him with your eyes last night. Did you?"

"Don't think I did" she looks to be in thought when Evelyn came out of the kitchen carrying their breakfast. She set it on the table and greeted Olivia who beamed at her "well, let's eat if you don't want to be late for work today."

They settled for their breakfast and left for work after that.

At the office, work continued like yesterday. Olivia didn't miss the flirting glances that Devon kept passing her way. She found it funny how a woman can be attracted to a fellow woman and had to remind herself that no one knows she is a woman.

After finishing the work on her table, she realized she had nothing important to do again and so started playing a game with her cellphone. Loosing the game after three times, she gave up playing. She thought on what next to do and then decided to call Kane.

But why call him when she can go to him?

The idea stuck and she got up immediately. Leaving the office, she passed Devon on the way, "hey Dev, leave anything that come in for me on my desk, I will be out for a while."

"Alright sir, hope you get something for me on your way back" she blushed.

"Ah, don't worry, I will think of something beautiful for a beautiful girl like you."

"Thank you. Em sir, I was wondering or more like I want to let you know that since today begins the weekend, I will be free till Monday" she bit her lip.

"I will keep that in mind" she smiled and walked away.

"Hey aunt can I borrow your car?" Olivia said immediately she entered her aunt's office.

"Where to?" Grace inquired without looking up from her desk.

"I want to go see Kane. He will be at the MavinTech headquarters right?"

"Yes, that's why he is but why do you want to see him?"

"Hey, he is my friend. I don't need a reason to see him."

"You were with him last night."

"It doesn't matter. I enjoy his company."

"Hmm. Even if I give you my car, how will you know where you are going? You have refused to know your way around" she glanced at her.

"Don't worry, I will use your GPS" she beamed.

Grace rolled her eyes and tossed the key on the desk for her "I will be leaving for France sometime."

"Oh, when?" Olivia inquired as she picked up the key.

"I haven't thought of the date yet but I just think I should alert you so you won't see my leaving as impromptu. I might wake up to travel tomorrow, you know how I can be."

She nodded, "exactly. Okay then, just let me when you know when" she turned to leave.

"And Olivia?"

She turned to look at her with a raised eyebrow.

"Return with my car unscathed and on time."

"Don't worry aunt" she left the office.

In arrival at MarvinTech, she got out of the car and was a sight to behold. She got a lot of head turns as she stroll in the company's lobby, she went directly to the receptionist and flashed her charming smile, "point me to your President's office would you?"

The young lady blushed "I'm sorry sir, is he expecting you?"

"No" she smiled "but he would love to see me."

"I'm sorry sir but the president gave us a strict order. No one is allowed into his office without an appointment."

"Is that so?" She clicked her tongue and pout her lips, looking so handsome that the receptionist was out of air for her beauty. Olivia smiled "I tell you what, how about you put him on call and alert him of my presence?"

"Well, I guess I can do that" she picked up her intercom and called the President's office and the secretary picked "there is a young man here looking for the president. Do you think he can see him?"

"I'm sorry but the president is in a meeting right now. If the person can wait for him, he will be done soon" the secretary said.

The receptionist conveyed the message to Olivia who nodded and agreed to wait while the receptionist pointed her to the waiting area.

She left and made herself comfortable, crossing her leg as she brought out her phone to text Kane, 'in your building but not allowed to enter your office'.

She dropped her phone and looked up only to catch a lot of eyes staring at her and mostly women. Hold on, she seems to be attracting women a lot, even way more than her brother. She passed a flirting smile to the ladies and they all purred, returning their gazes to their work.
