As soon as the door closed and the driver got in. Sean grabbed Sara holding the hand like the most delicate thing he'd ever held. "Hospital now" he barked making the two up front jump before the car began moving.
"Hold up we don't need to go to the hospital for anything." Sara countered as the car sped away. Sean looked at her before responding "we need to make sure your hand is ok." Sean's words instantly made Sara laugh out loud at the absurdity. She took her hand back before leaning against the window looking out at the passing city lights. "Frank let's just go home" Sara spoke to the man in front of her. The driver looked at sean in the back who just nodded.
As they drove on Sara felt her eyes get heavy and soon after she fell asleep. As the car made a turn, she fell off the window towards Sean. Sean immediately dropped the tablet in his hand catching the girl. While holding her and brushing the hair off her face, Frank who saw everything froze. 'What is going on with him.' Frank thought about his devil boss treating Sara better than his own mother. Sean's voice was heard , however so soft that the two men hardly believed it was his at first "Kyler stop the car. Frank, your team can take the night off and come over in the morning." Frank immediately left the car after he recovered from the shock knowing that she was going into probably the safest place on earth,except a nuclear bunker, for the night and his services weren't necessary."
After Frank exited the car Sean looked down on the woman in his arms before instructing Kyler to drive home. After arriving the staff came put to greet Sean however they all were stunned as the man got out of the car immediately, with his finger in front of his mouth, then proceeded to carry a woman inside covered by his jacket. As soon as Sean entered the mansion he instructed two women to come with him to the master bedroom. After laying Sara down on the bed he instructed the two women to change her out of the dress handing them a shirt and pair of sweatpants, before heading off to the study.
When morning came, Sara woke up and looked around shocked at the place where she woke up. Looking around at the room she noticed the black furniture everywhere and modern styling. She quickly got out of bed noticing that her clothes had changed. 'Who changed my clothes last night and where am I.' She then froze when a door inside the room opened and she saw Sean walking out of a room with a shirt in his hand. Sara froze looking at the toned body, her eyes freezing on the long scars and burn marks on his otherwise perfect body. Sean look up to see Sara standing looking at his scars as he put on his shirt. "I think your drooling" the melodic voice with its warmth made Sara blush as she realized she been caught staring. She quickly averted her eyes before responding "Where are we?"
"My mansion in Arlington Hills." Sean calmly responded before a knock was heard at the door. Sean immediately walked over and after a brief conversation, came back with a business suit handing it to Sara. "The bathroom is in there, if there's anything you need there's a call button and a member of my staff will get it for you. There is someone outside the room, when your ready they'll bring you for breakfast." After finishing his sentence Sean picked up a paper on the night stand before walking out of the room.
As Sara walked into the bathroom she was taken away at the size of it. "My bedroom isn't even half this size" she said out loud. "The shower is larger than my bathroom." Sara thought about a career change as she cleaned up. After getting out of the shower and getting ready, Sara exited the bedroom to see a woman standing there by the door wearing a black business suit. "Madam this way please" the lady said with a smile on her face, before leading Sara to a table on a porch outside.
Sara sat down at the table as sean put the paper in his hands on the table and sat opposite of her. "So you live in Arlington Hills? Why did you bring me here?" Sean sipped his coffee the simply responded "easier than waking you up at your house." Sara picked up the paper looking at the headline 'Dearborn CEO takes leave of absence announcing Sebastian Núñez as Temporary CEO' Sara scoffed at the headline "how is this news." Sean looked over at the paper chuckling "Many people want a chance to have a meeting with the man who almost a quarter of the worlds goods pass through one of his empires' companies. So when the mysterious man steps away from his throne surely it would cause a shock to the business world." Sean said before pointing at the paper title : Wall Street Journal. Sara shook her head before responding "Where could a king go, especially one as sought after as that?" Sean smiled at her words "Maybe he went looking for love and a wife?"
"A man like that only loves money." Sara chuckled while breakfast was served. Sean looked up at Sara as she ate before looking out over the expansive yard that ran up to a secluded lake. "What makes you so sure?" Sean responded after a while, his voice devoid of emotion. Sara looked up at the man looking over the yard thinking internally 'why is he wondering about this.' She then looked out over the yard and responded "It took that company 10 years and a lot of aggressive moves to get put into the position that it's in now. I remember we did a case study in college on them. The CEO took risks that no one else thought would pay off but somehow these did, he built unlikely alliances and now he's on top of the world for what? Money."
"This is the first time I've heard someone call his moves risky. Give me an example." Sean looked at the woman smiling at her description of his life's work. Sara finished her food before responding "Firstly I need the recipe for that, it was delicious. Secondly, just look at the deal with Manser Engineering. That company was days away from collapse and now they are the go-to firm for skyscrapers and large architectural projects." Sean sipped his coffee looking at the lady before responding "Manser wasn't days away, they were 14 hours from bankruptcy." Sara stunned asked "How are you that sure." Sean smiled at the fact that they were having a genuine conversation for once, even if about business. He finished his coffee before he responded,looking at the woman who seemed fascinated with the subject "I was hired to restructure the company the day the deal came in. That deal gave Manser $50 million upfront, enough to keep them afloat." Sara stunned with the mans response ask "is that when you met Emma Camilla?"
"Her? She's a friend of my mothers, I knew her growing up. However I did help her company out as well." Sean answered perfunctory before they were interrupted by John who came walking up. "Madam there is a representative from Camilla Pharmaceuticals in the office that would like to speak with you." Sean looked at his watch. "It seems our 8am meeting is concluded Ms. Morgan." Sean stated before standing up and walking away. Sara begrudgingly got up and followed John. She wanted to stay and keep picking this business genius's brain but she was also excited about the opportunity to work with Camilla Pharmaceuticals. As she rode away with John speaking about some company matters she thought about what happened the night before when she suddenly realized what he had said that night. 'He called me his woman? We barely know each other why would he say such an outlandish thing.'
