Am sure you know where your office is?, he asked and she nodded lightly before taking her leave.
He stared at the shut door,he couldn't tell her he made her work here because he was interested in her, though her qualifications and credentials were good,she had wanted to go for the internship program but he was greedy and wanted her closer to himself, so he made her his personal assistant.
Alexa had already gone to her office,she opened the file he had given her,it had all the work she needed for the week,it was complicating to understand at first,but it became much more easier as he had broken it down,she could recognize his delicate handwriting anywhere,he must have known she wouldn't get it so he helped her out.
She smiled..,in the past when they were together he was always good to her and even now when he didn't know her,he still treated her nicely.
She concentrated on getting it done quickly as he needed it,it took a really long time and when she was almost finished, someone came inside.
She raised her head up to look at the person who smiled at her.
Sorry I kept on knocking but you didn't answer so I could only enter..
It's fine..umm Francis,she said unsure of his name and he nodded.
How may I help you?,she asked.
Are you free so you can come for dinner,he said casually and she knitted her brow.
They weren't close so inviting her for dinner was weird.
No ..what I mean is that the whole team is going out for dinner,it happens not often but this one is to welcome the new interns into the company and since your new, you're supposed to come also,he explained and she finally understood and sat calmly.
Am afraid but I'll have to miss this one,she said.
Like you said I am new and i have lots of work to do,I hope you guys understand..
Hmm...I'll take my leave..,but working here is very energy draining so don't stress yourself too much,he said and walked out.
He indeed right and she was thankful that he treated her nicely,infact of all the workers here Francis was the only one who had welcomed her and treated her properly.
She was super busy and hungry and she would have loved to go out for dinner but she knew her presence there wasn't needed,she had stepped her foot two times into the company but the number of hates she had received could fill a whole pedestrian road.
Her thoughts were Interrupted by the office phone,she knew it was Ayden and it was probably because of the file he was calling,she immediately stood up with the files in her hand walking out of the office.
It was already 7:00pm and most workers had already left on my those who had unfinished work like she,she was super hungry as she hadn't eaten anything that whole day.
Reaching the front door,she knocked gently before entering inside and closing the door,the room was quiet as Ayden was facing the window his back facing her..,even his back view was majestic..,the guy was really something.
He stood there for a while before he turned to face her,her heart jumped as she took the file and placed it on the table,he looked at the file for a few seconds before looking at her face.
Umm.the files have being sorted,and I got news from the designs department,I documented everything down so the works be way easier...,they've finished working on the pattern and the other file here was given to me by the head of design team,he said everything had being evaluated and the models are ready,she said with a straight face,he smiled as she was done.
Really hardworking and intelligent
.,just how I'll loved my woman to be,he thought.
If there is nothing more I'll take my leave now,she said and turned around to leave.
Have you had dinner yet?,she heard the deep familiar voice that causes waves of joy in her heart.
She turned back before replying"not yet..um...sir,she said unsure of what to call him.
Call me ayden,he said and she nodded.
Let's go out for dinner..,he started and realized she was about to say something.
I would like you to explain about the file and I am hungry...,so let's go?..
Sure,she replied and followed him with the file in her hand as she got into his car.
He drove around for at least 10 minute before they finally got to the restaurant,it wasn't extravagant or classy,it was just homely and had a beautiful vibe,even though he was rich he didn't spend more than needed.
They were already seated and looking through the menu for what to order.
What would you like to eat?,he asked.
Umm anything is fine with me,she replied.
Then I'll take a mango juice,he muttered but she had heard him.
you can't,you allergic to mangoes,she said and he tilted his head.
And how did you know that I have a reaction each time I eat mango,not even my close friends know that.
Sh*t she was going to be busted..,was he already suspecting her of something.
She had been able to hide the fact that they were acquainted for a long time and she couldn't be exposed like this,he shouldn't remember about his past with her... their past together.
Umm..i..I just saw an article on social media about it,so I just assumed,I really don't know if you're allergic or not.
What article is that?..,he asked.
Well..you see.. it's being a long time since I saw it so it should have already being down by now.
Huh..okay then,he called the waiter to take their order.
