Jessica heaved a sigh after returning back to the counter. Joe prepared her chocolate coffee while she sat there scrolling in her phone.
"Hmm here " Joe placed the coffee cup in front of her, "you are the best, top floor " she winked and took a sip, after taking another three sips she placed the cup on the shelf and made a cute face.
"Joe handsome just marry me, so that I can have this coffee anytime I want " She doesn't wanted make a cute face, she herself is a cute girl.
"Chubby boss including this you have proposed me 512 just for a coffee. I'll report you for mentally harassing your co worker by making such cute faces"
They both laughed and continued to chat since they no other customers but they didn't know someone was watching them from the beginning.
It was 11.30 now, she was bored because none of them were ordering anything so she took out a book and started to read but after a few minutes she fell asleep, placing her head on the counter shelf.
Joe took the book from her hands and placed a thin blanket over her. He took out his laptop and started to work.
He is the CEO of a Grace company, the 2nd top company in Lumino city (The city where they are currently living). He hate crowds and attention, more than that he likes Jessica and treats her as his own sister that's why he works in her restaurant.
He was kicked out by his family because he was a illegitimate son. She knows everything about him but didn't know that he was a CEO.
After working with her for 6 months he decides to not to tell her about him being a CEO.
Now it was 12.15 but they didn't finish there meeting, Roy called him to come over there. He closed his laptop and went to there table.
"Yes sir" he asked politely. "Mr.Joe can you extend the timings for another 15 min and can you bring the pineapple pastry"
"No problem sir and we cannot extend more than that" saying that he went back to prepare the pastry.
Jessica was still slept soundly. After preparing the pastry he went to serve them.
He was about to place the pastry in front of Roy "It's not for me, it's for him." He pointed at the man who was earlier emitted a cold aura.
"Oh sorry for that, here sir your pineapple pastry" he placed it infront of that man and Joe was about to take his hand back but that man held his hands tightly but gently.
Joe flinched by the sudden hold and looked at him confusingly. That man chuckled "Myself Joey and you are cute."
The other two who sat beside him opened there mouths widely. Where as Joe's heart beated rapidly and his ears turned red. He was deeply sunk in those Red eyes.
Joey again chuckled at him then Joe came back to his sense. He pulled back his hands from that man's grip and smiled "Thank you sir" saying that he went from there.
After sitting on his chair he pats his chest and calmed himself "stop beating so fast it's just a compliment..... but it's very different from other compliments."
Jessica woke up and rubbed her eyes and saw Joe's face which was red. She immediately got off from the chair and went near him.
"Hey top floor are you feeling unwell any where why is your face is so red.... do you have fever...come let's go to the hospital" she blabbed continuously.
"No...no I'm fine it's just that... that the weather is hot right.. right...the weather is hot"
She scratched her head and was about say something but Joe again shut her from speaking further by taking his laptop.
