Kate's POV
I left the conference room still disappointed with Clyde because of what he said to me as we were going to the elevator, and that Sandra who obviously had a secret love at Clyde. I went straight into Clyde's office, frowning because I still couldn't get over my annoyance with Clyde. I heard the door open and I wasn't mistaken it was Clyde who came.
"Hey, what's wrong? Why are you suddenly acting like that? You've been like that since I came in the office. I already explained to you about Sandra, right?"
I faced him and still frowning. "That's not the only reason why I am mad at you."
"What? What did I do? I do not understand."
"Never mind. Here are the folders you need. Your schedules for the whole week are here as well. Just call me if you need anything else. I need to go; I have some work to finish."
I was about to go out the door when Clyde suddenly grabbed my left arm. "Why? Do you need anything else, Mr. Wilson?"
"Talk to me, what are you mad about? How will I know if you don't tell me? I'm not a fortune teller to know what's on your mind. It's hard for you girls, you make things complicated."
"What? We make things complicated? Really? So, what are you boys called? Cold-hearted? Affectionless? Unemotional?"
"Kate, come on, stop this childish play! We are matured enough to act appropriately. Let's not exaggerate this issue."
"Fine, then don't ask me what's wrong then. Please, excuse me Mr. Wilson, I need to work now," I answered and then walked out the door.
When I sat down at my desk I almost broke the ballpoint pen I was holding because of my anger towards Clyde. I am very disappointed with him as if he is making me look like it is my fault. How dare him to say those words to me. Is it because he thinks I owe him a lot because he will help me to find my dad, so I have no right to be mad with him or maybe he is just really insensitive, well, that's how I met him.
I just focused myself on work and stop thinking what I could do with him.
When I finished my work, I looked at the wall clock in the office and the office hours were just over, so I immediately arranged my things. I intend to just take a taxi. When I left the office to wait for a taxi, someone suddenly grabbed my arm. So, I turned around and noticed that it was Edward. One of Clyde's employees, if I'm not mistaken he is already in a high position.
"Hey, Kate, are you alone?" Edward asked.
"Yes, I'm just waiting for a taxi," I answered.
"I have a car, do you want a ride? I'll just take you to your apartment," said Edward.
I hesitated to agree to Edward's offer, but I also thought that if I go with him, I wouldn't have to wait for a taxi and it would be easier for me to get home.
I was about to agree to Edward's offer when someone suddenly pulled my arm and forced me into the car, I saw a man blocking Edward to prevent him from helping me. When I got inside the car, I was screaming non-stop because I didn't know the people who took me when suddenly a familiar voice spoke from my side.
"Be quiet," said a familiar voice.
"Clyde?" I said while looking at him. "What kind of nonsense is this? Why do you have to send me to those people?"
"It's simple, because you're with someone else and you plan to join him, right?"
"What the fuck are you thinking? He's just being nice; he will just take me to my apartment. There's nothing wrong with that, right?"
"There is something wrong with that, because I am your boyfriend and soon to be your husband, it is my right to take you to your apartment and not any other man."
"I don't remember that we had an agreement on that matter. You know what, I'll just get out of this car and I'll just wait for a taxi."
"Alright, get out of the car and I won't hesitate to fire the man you were talking to earlier."
I suddenly turned to him and raised an eyebrow. "What the hell are you doing? Why do you need to fire the person who does nothing bad to you? Are you out of your mind? Edward was your employee for a long time, and then you acted like that! You know what; you're the one who acted like a child! These things that happened, very insane!" I said and got out of the car.
When I got out of the car I immediately took a deep breath and held my chest, I didn't think Clyde could do that. Is he going back to his old behavior?
I saw that Clyde's car was still there until I got a taxi. It seems that he waited for me to get into a taxi before he left.
When I got to the apartment, I immediately went to bed. I did not expect everything that happened today. Very exhausted. I closed my eyes when my phone suddenly rang, I saw Clyde's calling, but I just let it ring. He tried to call me several times but I still didn't answer his call when I suddenly received a text message from him. So, I opened it and read it.
"I'm sorry for what happened earlier. I just didn't like what I saw. I'm here right now outside your apartment. Please, open the door for me?"
I don't know if I should open the door for him or not. Honestly, I didn't want to talk to him right now, I didn't expect that he still followed me to my apartment.
I thought for a few minutes before I got out of bed and went to the door. I see his shadow outside the door. So, I just sighed and opened the door and when he saw me he immediately hugged me tightly as if he hadn't seen me in a long time.
