Azriel left her alone for the time being as he talked with his friend -a cop- over the phone, regarding what measures to follow for Nesryn's protection. "I think it would be best to let her stay there at your place for the time being, we still don't have any lead regarding the culprit's identity"
"Alright, Understood. I'll tell her the situation then, thanks man" He calmly said and hang up, he left the room and went to the kitchen "Please prepare a soup for Ms. Nesryn" he instructed the chef, who immediately nodded at his request. Azriel waited at the kitchen for the soup.
The chef was able to finish the soup within 20 minutes, he thanked the man and brought the tray with the bowl of soup and a glass of water to Nesryn's room.
He knocked first before entering "How are you feeling" he softly asked, putting down the tray by her side and sitting down. She looked at him and sadly smiled, an improvement from the past fake smile
"I am getting through it, my brains registering what happened" Azriel slowly nodded and lifted the tray to her lap.
"Here, I got the chef to prepare this for you" Nesryn flashed him a smile as thanks, Azriel just watch her sip the soup from the spoon "The police told me that it will be much better if you stay here for now till they catch the suspect" she hummed at the thought
"I could stay at some of my friends house or just go to a hotel"
Azriel's eyebrows furrowed "Why? You can stay here for free and besides you can easily go to the office with me everyday, you don't have to pay for a taxi anymore" he reasoned out, Nesryn went silent at that thought.
She didn't speak for a few minutes but then slowly nodded her head "I can agree with that but I'll pay for my living expenses"
"Bu-"
"No buts, it's either that or I'll go to a hotel"
"Ugh Fine! It's your decision."
Azriel decided to let Nesryn do what she wanted, instead of fighting over it. To distract Nesryn from what happened, Azriel opted for the two of them to work in his private office. Nesryn was buried in her ipad as Azriel signed some documents he took home with him earlier.
The peaceful silence lasted for more than 2 hours only to be broken by a knock from the door.
Nesryn stood up and opened the door revealing a woman in maid's clothing, she smiled at the girl who immediately bowed her head at her presence "Dinner is served and your luggage has been delivered here" the girl said, Azriel walked closer as well
"Alright, bring the luggage to her room, we'll be down in a minute" the maid bowed her head once again and politely left.
Nesryn stared at the retreating girl not used to the treatment, since all her life she only depended on herself. She watched as he walked back to his desk and removed his reading glasses. She walked after him to the dining hall, Azriel was the first one to pull out a chair for her. Nesryn thanked him quietly, he just smiled and sat down on his chair.
The maids served them their dinner for the night "The meal for tonight is inspired by an Indian cuisine, the dinner includes Tandoori Chicken, Roti paired with a Chili Chutney and last but not the least Biryani, a rice dish" the maid pointed to each dish.
Azriel flashed them a smile and thanked them. They all bowed and left the two alone.
Azriel was the first one to get the chicken but he placed the leg part on her plate, she shyly smiled at him as she scooped some of the rice. She made a Roti for him, putting two of it on his plate.
They ate in silence, savoring every dish prepared for just the two of them. Azriel was the first one to finish, sipping some of the red wine left on his glass.
Nesryn preferred juice over wine, not really having a high tolerance on the said beverage, though she can stomach one glass but that's all there is to it. She forced herself to be able to withstand a glass due to the times where she and Azriel were required to drink wine on certain occasions.
After dinner, Azriel invited her for a movie, she wanted to protest but he eventually won her over. "How about a horror movie?" she asked, smiling evilly. Azriel fought the urge to step back from her mischievous smile. "I don't like that smile" he muttered to himself.
Nesryn searched the entirety of Netflix for the scariest movie she could find. She came across the movie entitled 'Terrified'
Azriel backed away and sat down on the couch by the wall, not really a fan of horror movies. Nesryn played the movie and sat down on an armchair, her eyes playfully teasing Azriel who just pouted and hid behind a pillow, her laughter rang loud in the room as the movie started.
Halfway throughout the movie, Azriel was cowering in fear behind a pillow whilst Nesryn just stared at him with an amused smile on her face, not scared at all by the movie. She can't help but laugh, she has never seen her boss like this. His perfect mask never allowed such fragile emotion to run wild.
To the world he is the most eligible bachelor out there, he must be perfect in every sense and form. He was also told to not show weakness in front of everyone, he must be the perfect man ready to be wed anytime.
But it turns out he became the playboy billionaire, known for breaking every girl's heart all except for one, his secretary.
Nesryn once made it to the news, as the only woman that was able to stay on his side for more than 2 months. An achievement never done by anybody, because of that article her name once topped the search website for a whole week.
She received both positive and negative comments from the netizens but she ignored everything and just focused on doing her job properly.
Nesryn accompanied Azriel as he watched a cartoon to make his mind forget the horror movie they just watched. Azriel chose 'Lorax' as the movie, Nesryn fell asleep in the middle of the movie whilst Azriel tried to calm his mind, trying to forget the horror movie they just watched.
When the credits rolled in, Azriel turned off the TV and carried Nesryn out of the room bridal style. He carefully walked her back to her room, slowly laying her down on her bed and living the night lamp on then immediately left the room afterwards.
After making sure everything was fine, he retired back to his room and changed into sweatpants. He grabbed the book he left last night and started reading till he fell asleep.
Nesryn was the first one to wake up between the two of them, she did her morning stretches. She reached in her back and took something, immediately swallowing it with the help of water. After her morning stretches,she immediately unpacked her things for the time being, then hopping in to the shower to start her day.
Nesryn was in the middle of putting on her dark red pencil skirt when Azriel's voice rang outside her bedroom door. She quickly zipped her skirt and opened her door to come face-to-face with a half naked Azriel "is there something I can do for you sir?" she politely asked. He yawned, rubbing his eyes "Nothing, I just came to check on you"
She smiled at her boss "Everything's going fine sir, please go ahead and take a bath, I'll prepare your clothes, once I am done with mine" Azriel nodded and went back to his room. The only reason Nesyrn prepares his clothes is because her fashion sense is much better than his, though he could pull off anything with his handsome face and model-like body.
After drying her hair, she tied it in a high-ponytail, fixing the baby hairs that started standing up, and applied natural make-up. One look in the mirror later, she left her room wearing a beige colored,long-sleeved top, dark red pencil skirt and 2-inch heeled shoes.
She walked for a few seconds and went into Azriel's room to hear the shower running, she silently walked in his closet and chose greyish suit pants with his normal white long-sleeved top. She placed on his bed neatly, taking the matte gray coat with her and hanging it behind the bedroom door.
Next she picked out a tie, watch and handkerchief for him that was placed inside the clear glass drawer in the middle of his huge walk in closet. Azriel came out of the bath, already in his underwear, she directed her eyes away from the man as he put on his clothes in front of her. No matter how many times she caught him naked in bed with a woman in his arms, it's still not polite to stare, especially if he's her boss.
He let out a sound when he was done putting on all his clothes, they both walked in his closet as he sat down on the armchair on the corner of the room, Nesryn walked towards his large collection of dress shoes, picking a suitable one for his clothes. She took it off the shelf and silently walked back to him, placing the shoes beside his feet.
Azriel put on the clothes and stood up, looking at his reflection on the full body mirror in the closet, with a satisfied smile he left the closet and Nesryn followed after him, turning off the lights as they got out. He put on his watch while Nesryn put on his tie for him, he wore his coat and they left for breakfast.
He helped Nesryn down the stairs and into the dining hall. The maids served a classic French breakfast that consisted of 2 croissants, varying choices for jams and a cup of their preferred tea. Both the boss and secretary enjoyed a hearty breakfast before leaving for the company together.
