The following days passed by in a blur, she began to ignore him, she behaved like their intimate times never happened. It hurt him, whenever he tried to talk to her, she would run away claiming to have work. He knew the company was busy during this season,but even him had time for a little talk.
He missed her, he missed her lips and the way she fit perfectly in his arms.
The look of boredom rested on his face, scaring the men who sat at the conference table with him, they all feared that their effort to please him was futile and they had made him angry instead. He barely paid attention to what they said, too lost in the memory of Jasmine.
He cast his eyes to the left, taking in her attentive figure, she must have felt his eyes on her, because in the next minute their eyes clashed.
Her cheeks flushed and she looked away quickly, he was way too intense.
Hearing his name being called he darts his eyes to the front, taking in the sacred presenter.
He relaxes his gaze a little before nodding his head in understanding, the topic was complex, but Tristan was a smart man, all it took was one look and he had the knowledge of it all.
The scared presenter goes back to his seat releasing a relieved sigh, he had survived the wrath of Mr Natch... for now.
The meeting resumed, going back to normal and he tried his best to not think of his beautiful assistant.
The meeting had ended quite well to his staff, he seemed to buy the idea, no one got fired so to them it was a win.
He stayed in his office typing away at a document, not knowing what was going on to his beloved assistant.
She stared dumbfounded at the woman who for some reason had barged into her office demanding to see Tristan.
"Miss Kim Dan, Mr Natch is very busy, he just came back from a meeting and would not like to be disturbed." she said patronisingly.
The other woman however, looked at her with hate,disdain and jealousy. She knew that she had lost Tristan to this woman, but her pride won't let her let him go. No she was not going to lose to a common assistant, a country bumpkin.
"I told you my name is Mrs Natch, and I am allowed to see my soon to be husband whenever I like.... do you know who my family is?" Kim Dan boasted, flinging her left hand in the air so that Jasmine may get a look at the diamond ring on her hand.
Mr Natch had bought it in a bid to keep her and his family shut. It meant nothing to him, but Kim knew that his little assistant didn't know that.
As predicted, Jasmine's eyes fell on the ring on her hand and her heart dropped. The last time this model was here, there was absolutely no ring on her finger, but now... Mr Natch had lied, she was his wife to be. Her heart hurt.
She felt like her avoiding him for the past few days had made him lose interest and go and propose to another woman. It hurt.
Kim Dan saw the lost look on the girls face and decided to rub it in further.
"Young lady let me into my husband's office, I have to tell him something important that I forgot to tell him last night."
"Last night?" she couldn't stop the question from slipping.
Her chest hurt, last night he was blowing up her phone with texts of how much he wished she was in his bed with him right then. She should have known he was lying.
"Yes last night, I had suddenly forgotten. You see when I got to his house last night, he completely pounced on me like hungry lion...oh, I should not be saying this out side... where are my manners?" Kim Dan replied, pretending to be sorry about the fact that she just insinuated that Mr Natch had sex with her.
She bent her head down in order for the cruel woman not to see the tears forming in her eyes. Gosh she was just a fool, she couldn't believe she got played like that.
In Kim Dan's mind she was quiet happy with her little victory, yes she had destroyed the little hope that his little poor assistant had in him, this way she could finally have his attention when his assistant rejected him. She wanted to laugh but it was too soon, she would laugh after she gave this little assistant an invitation to her wedding.
While she thought of all this she failed to see that his beloved assistant was already crying, and one drop of tears fell, Mr Natch door opened.
He couldn't believe his eyes, why was that woman looking in his workplace and why did she have that triumphant look. Then he looked at his little rabbit watching as a tear fell from her red eyes once more... and all hell broke lose.
