Chapter 7 - CHAPTER SIX

The next day, when I got to the office ,alot of work needed to be done , I found out most of them just wanted to be certain I was still going to work for the company , how adults can act like children at times.

" Icy please if you ever decide to go into agency business just buy shares in my company or it's game over for me "Jason said and laughed very hard .

"what ! I'm serious, I think they forget I'm president at times , I'm only president on paper " he said pouting .

"Jason, I see you need babying too don't worry I pose no threat , but I feel you should be more open make them feel like you are more of a brotherly figure and everything will work out " i said patting him on the back, most of them call me when they go through a bad breakup or when they have a crush on someone and they think I'm the best at advice .Just then Hilda knocked on the door and came in

" Icy, can I talk to you for a bit " she said looking a bit out of it today ,Hilda can be a bit of a bitch at times but she just uses that as a defense mechanism in order for people not to see the soft her ,the real her. we both connect on that account but Hilda doesn't know that we have alot in common

" Yeah Hilda come in what's the problem?" she smiled showing off her pearly white teeth she had a healthy caramel skin , she took very good care of her skin , today she was wearing lemon green biker shorts and and oversized white polo one side was in the waist of the biker short she had her hair in ponytail with less makeup today .

"well I have this issue with an ex , I want to get back with him but I'm sure he doesn't want me

" why is that ?" I said and raised my right eye brow , when I saw her fiddling with her nails I knew right away she was at fault.

"umm ..I kinda cheated on him so I don't think he will really want me near him " she said

" well you should invite him to lunch or dinner even breakfast so that you can explain how much you regret it and that you want him back into your life and don't repeat the same mistake ever again. if you weren't close to me "

"yeah I know you don't like cheaters " Hilda said

"just show him the real you and not the version you show everyone". wow the hypocrite award of the year goes to me but there's really nothing I can do about that

"thanks icy I had a great time talking to you oh I have a shoot to run to right now call you later "Hilda smiled and left the office .

My phone rang and I saw it was an unknown number calling I really didn't like picking up calls that wasn't on my contact list but I could at least be polite I picked the call and said

"hello good morning who am I speaking with? "

"Hi it's Yesser I wanted to know when we get to sign the contract "

"oh that's great can you drop in today or you want us to come to you ?"

"no that won't be a problem I'll be there in 30 "

"ok bye "

"bye " the line went dead and I went into Jason's office which was linked to mine Jason was on the phone so I waited for him to finish

"what's up?"

"well Yesser is dropping by today and he wants to sign the contract "

"what ! really ! that's good I knew you could do it you are a blessing in this company " he said beaming

"ok so I'm going to prepare refreshments for them I'll come get you when they arrive " I said and left his office , my phone rang it was Yesser so I headed towards the reception to receive him and us manager .He was dressed casually today again I bet his fashion sense is casual and comfy but damn it looked good in him he could wear a trash bag and it will be sold out in seconds

Yesser POV

Here she is again trying to give me a heart attack when we met at the restaurant the other day,she looked beautiful but today it was another level of gorgeous, I really haven't felt this kind of pull to someone before but she seems different she doesn't care about status I guess I now finally understand why my fellow models from Hive Entertainment always talk about her when we are in a shoot or in the dressing room if I didn't know better I'd think she was dating everyone because of the way their eyes shone whenever they spoke about her the famous Icy Parker, the tales didn't do her justice at all , her caramel skin was glowing although she was smiling he saw a sadness, behind every step despite it being confident to everyone , he felt depression In her steps .she got to where he was standing and shook hands with him she had soft hands but her handshake was strong she shook Lee's hands and told them to follow he they all got into the elevator and went into a office Jason was already there waiting for them and two other ladies they were dressed sharp he liked the fact that Jason let women have important roles in the agency he already felt at ease here , Jason spoke first

" Nice to see you, Mr. Jamal, Mr. Andrews " they shook hands with everyone in the room and sat down

"so we are here to sign the contract , the deal is a good one we also look forward to a great working relationship " Lee said the contract was handed to Yesser and he signed it

" we look forward to working with you too "Jason said smiling but really his eyes were only on icy he noticed she frowned when no one was looking but smiled when everyone was looking at her that made him want to hold her tightly in his arms but he shrugged the thought away as soon as it came.

"Yesser I think you should get a tour of the place from my assistant ,Icy please show Yesser around the office " she had a feeling Jason was up to something but she just brushed it off

"ok sir Follow me Mr. Jamal " she said

"Just call me Yesser "he said

"ok, this way Yesser " she said and lead him out of the office , he could feel she was uncomfortable so he needed to break the ice he chuckled ,she turned to him and furrowed her brows she really didn't get why he chuckled

"so should we start from the bottom or top " she said but his dirty mind had to interpret in another way he really didn't know why his guard was let down around her.

"bottom I mean ground floor "

"ok " the elevator opened and she showed him around he saw the way everyone greeted her warmly and the respect she had amongst the worker by the time the tour was done he was tired and he bet she was too Jason had gone to lunch with Lee, so she was sorta free Lee told him, how this man gets to notice him still terrifies the hell out if him .

"so umm would you like to have lunch with me I bet you're tired and I'm famished "

"yeah sure let me get my bag"

"ok" she went to her office and when she came to the lobby she saw Sasha and her minions eating him with their eyes she shook her head and when he saw her approaching he waved their eyes followed his gaze and landed on her they all scowled at her , without a backward glance she left with him to a restaurant nearby.
