Chapter 12 - Call me Eric

Seeing and discussing the progress bar didn't take that long for them. After assesing them over they all proceed to go home.

Xander once again try to take Blue home but was mercilessly disturb by Eric.

He could only look pitifully at Blue and left with George.

Jason didn't dwell on any further, he know to well not to stay with Eric than necessary so he left quickly.

As Blue proceed on her walk towards her car,Eric caught up with her.

"Blue let me drive you home"

Blue slightly frown but quickly smoothen out her brow.

" No need, I brought my car,  thank you for the offer"

Blue reply rather indifferently.

She didn't find any need to talk warm with him. Lukewarm is how she treat other who is not her people. They are just a mere partner in business and nothing more, not to mention she never like anything to do with the opposite sex, except her Grandpa, Gregory and George.

Eric was dissapointed, his mood turn sour at Blue obvious distant answer.

She really didn't remember him in the slightest while he remember his encounter with her very cleary, as if it happened yesterday.

He just kept silent and walk with the rhythm of Blue.

When Blue walk out of the restaurant the manager quickly came and bow his head repeatedly.

"Miss I am so sorry its its like this ehh.. the man who have your car key stole your car and drive away with it"

Thé manager was too embarrassed to say that, this thing happened at their morta restaurant, what will other say about their work staff. This time they will surely suffer a loss to remunerate their restaurant bad réputation of incompétent workers, and as a manager he will be the one who suffer the most.

"We will send another car of the exact same model of your car and for a compensation your meal for this year at our restaurant will be free of charge"

As a manager he is quite competent and was able to smooth things out, and making a reasonable transaction.

Blue couldn't care less about this thing and also the manager gave a reasonable return for her loss, the only problem is that ,that car is the least she want and this Morta restaurant, rather than this place her restaurant meal are far better not to mention it is the leading top restaurant.

This morta restaurant is at top five while her restaurant is at the number one.

Who could care for no 5 while she has nunber 1.

"No need for free meal, rather give me free ticket to go vacation on Eastlanda Island"

The manager more or less agree to the request. Since the Island was their boss owned they do have the capability to give a ticket for the island.

"Very well miss, thank you for understanding "

The manager politely reply.

"Let our reataurant car send you home"

Just as the manager try to call a cab Eric magnetic voice suddenly said out.

"No need, I will take her home"

And like that before Blue could reject his offer he already walk towards his car.

Thé manager was so shock.

Is that Eric Armagon, the Eric Armagon. The tyrant of business.

His presence was too low key and also because he was busy with the Miss, he didn't notice him.

And what is his relation with This miss. Something is really going on between them. The Eric Armagon, the man at the top of food chain never once touch a woman of opposite sex much less talk, that is a well known fact.

And now here he is witnessing the great devil God taking home a girl.

He cannöt help but look at Blue in a new light, he cannot thank the heaven enough that he remain polite to the young lady before him, but if he had known earlier he will treat her more sincerely than before.

And he is smart enough not to be nosy on them and investigate who the girl is, he treasure his life and isn't ready to provoke such a big character a man like Eric Armagon.

When Eric arrive near Blue, Blue have no choice but to get in before getting too much attention than she already has.

What can she do when she is with such a big character.

She could feel the curios and envious and jealous people sharp gaze

Great !

What a low key ? '!

Some people might surely try to check her background.

Once she got inside the car, she immediately call Holly Major.

"Um people will try to check my bacground, hide it well, and there might be me and Mr Armagon picture post on the internet, take care of that too"

Blue immediately hung up her phone.

"You really hate us together that much"

Eric suddenly ask, his tone is cold and low. Although his voice seem casual Blue couldn't help but detect a slight anger in them.

"You are too much of a big character, I want a low key life not a limelight life"

Blue didn't know why but feel that she has to explain herself or something might happen.

Even the dark atmosphere inside the car ease up.

The whole car drive was silent,and Blue didn't plan on starting a conversation either.

Eric stop his car suddenly and got out.

"wait here"

He said and left immediately.

After a minute he came back and get in the car.

He toss a chocolate ice-cream towards Blue.

"eat"

Only one simple word and Eric start his car again.

Blue was a little baffled with his overbearing character.

She didn't know why he trouble himself buying the ice cream not to mention its her favourite flavor, but she don't plan to think too much.

She plan on buying Ice cream anyway, her favourite movie show will be given tonight.

Maybe he just buy out of gentleman.

"Thank you Mr Arma.. "

"Eric"

Being interrupted Blue don't know what to say.

"Pardon"

"Éric, Call me Eric"

"I don't think that's appropriate Mr Arma"

Before Blue could finish her sentence Eric stop the car and lean towards Blue.

Too close !

Blue can even smell the mint of his breath.

She immediatly put her hand on his chest to push him away but it doesn't have any effect much considering him really strong.

Although Blue is startled inside her mind she look as calm as ever on the outside.

Even in her past life Antonio was never this near to her.

"MrAr"

"Eric, call me Eric otherwise I will have to kiss you"

His magnetic and sexy voice vibrate inside the car.

His hot breath graze on Blue lips.

Blue brain nearly short circuit although you may not like someone but if he or she lean in on such a close proximity your ought to have a messy brain.

"E.. Eric, please move back"

Blue could finally mutter out his name, it feels strange for her when his nickname roll out of her mouth, she never call people nickname, only those she consider her people. And they are far and few.

Eric eyes darkened when he hear his name roll out of Blue charming voice.

He took a deep breath, trying to suppress the raging desire in him. Not to mention his lips is so close to Blue.

He really want to give in to his desire and taint this alluring kissable red lips.

One step at a time, he cannot just scare her away with his rampant action.

But he is never a man of patient,all the people around him know that. But for her he will try to be.

But Eric don't know how long he could be this patient.

He lean back and drive his car again.

Through the whole ride it was silent.

When they reach Blue home .

Blue quickly get down from the car but before she could walk far she heard Eric voice.

"This saturday at 7:00 pm, I will come and take you out for dinner"

And before Blue could deny he quickly drive away.

Blue although her face was calm, her mind is in a mess.

She couldn't figure out what this Eric is trying to do. His action are too overbearing.

She really want to stay far away fron him. She couldn't see through him and what he is thinking.

She is not one to believe that He like her not to mention they see other only for such a short time, this is the second time they see each other and she isn't one to believe in love at first sight sh*t.

Her best solution is faking an illness and not go out with him when the time comes. Yeah that will do !! Whatever his motive is she is not interested in playing his game.

---------

The driver who stole Blue car was standing under the bridge next to Blue car.

His phone started ringing and when he look at the caller ID although the caller could not see him he still stood ramod straight showing how much he respect him.

"Boss"

"Go to the HR department and get your promotion letter"

Eric magnetic voice sounded through the phone.

"Thank you so much boss"

And The line was cut off.

Although The driver didn't know why his boss instruct him to steal someone car as a subordinate he didn't ask but just do. Not to mention he receive promotion for this.
