After talking with Ella Millman, Valeria headed towards the lounge. Upon finding her sitting there, engrossed in a fashion magazine. "May I use your phone or landline?" Miss Agnes looked up at her while pulling the specs down on the tip of her nose. Valeria knew why the elderly lady gave her the look. "I want to call Markos. For some stuff." Smiling at Valeria, Miss Agnes gestured towards the hallway.
Valeria mouthed her thank you and headed to call him. She knew that in order to execute her plan with the evidence; Valeria had to get caught being all couple-ish with Markos. Dialling the contact which wasn't a hard thing for her to get. "Um, hi!" Clearing her throat while having no idea what to say. "I called you to tell you that I need a new phone. Mine broke during the reunion mess."
Markos chuckled which made Valeria shy instantly to the point of biting her lower lip. For some reason she could feel herself safe enough to expose her vulnerability around him. "And I will be joining the office from tomorrow." She tapped her fingers on the table, leaning in while waiting for his reply. On the other hand, Markos presented an utter silence. After thinking a bit he spoke while faking a cough.
"Actually, Valeria." He seemed to be hesitant in whatever Markos had to say. "I want you to transfer here and handle things with an upper hand. This way you can work under my roof, in front of me and I wouldn't have to worry about your safety. Especially after the Castello case." Valeria pretended to muddle over the matter. Deep down she wanted Markos to offer this from the front.
"If you say so." Replying in a soft tone with a reluctance in it, Valeria knew she had to keep her true intentions hidden. "Shall I come today after lunch?" Upon hearing a positive response she ended the call. Now was the first step for her mission. Valeria smacked her lips with a grin and headed towards the lounge. Miss Agnes was already waiting for her with an eagerness written all over her face.
"Can you please ask the maids to cook Markos' favourite items? Two shall be good." Miss Agnes raised her eyebrow with a smirk while looking at her. She placed her one arm over the back of the sofa. "I want to fix things between us. Well, we already did yesterday. But I want to show my appreciation towards him for listening to me." Valeria pouted a bit with a shy smile, her cheeks grew pink.
Valeria took the lunchbox and asked the driver to take her to the office. Reaching the corporate, descending the luxurious vehicle. Valeria consumed her time to give the grand entrance. "Is Markos in the office or meeting?" She inquired from the assistant on the front desk. The young woman glanced at Valeria with disgust written all over her face. The receptionist probably mistook her for some escort.
"Excuse me? Boss doesn't want to see your type." She informed with a scoff, mistaking Valeria for a hooker. Meanwhile, the woman was shocked with the misbehaviour. "Go away. He wouldn't waste his money, effort and time on some hoe." The receptionist spoke again while rolling her eyes. This time Valeria lowered her head, curled her fingers into fists, inhaled deeply. She didn't want to cause a scene in the workplace.
At least, that wasn't the intention. Valeria forced a smile on her face lifting the lunchbox. "Well, dear. Hookers don't bring lunch for clients." The receptionist laughed wholeheartedly as she stepped back a bit. Placing her elbows on the marbled desk the young girl kept on chuckling. In her head, Valeria was just a naive one who thought she could charm Markos Moreno with tasty food. Pitiful indeed.
"I pity you, woman. Nonetheless, the boss is in his cabin. You can visit him before the meeting." She smiled at Valeria, who was having a twitch over her lips. Under some other circumstances she would have made a scene there. But currently meeting Markos was her priority and she wanted to fix things with him. Creating a drama over misbehaviour of some random girl was not in her bucket list.
Valeria cast a last stern look at the girl and headed towards the cabin. She knew where it was and the receptionist had the same assumption. According to her Valeria was probably the most recent woman her boss had been hooking up with. Which automatically meant knowing the basics about Markos. "Good luck with your little trick. Hope it works." She yelled with a wave, while Valeria smirked without turning back.
Of course the trick would work. Valeria Hayden never failed. Well, until recently. But that wasn't the hot topic anymore. Valeria opened the door without bothering to knock. "Hello there–" Her voice got stuck in the throat upon seeing the unexpected sight in front of her. A woman was kneeling on the floor with her undies lifted up and butt exposed. Meanwhile, Markos was sitting on the sofa with his pants down.
Valeria saw that when she opened the door he panicked a little. However, his dick was still inside the mouth of that woman. "Valeria?" A panicking and shocking voice from Markos snagged her attention. She immediately grasped why the woman was familiar. "Just a moment, love." Markos addressed the woman, touching her cheek. "Come back later?" The woman nodded and stood up, settled her panties and headed out.
"What are you doing here?" Markos inquired without bothering to cover his dick. Whereas, Valeria found herself speechless at the sight. Markos raked through his hair while sitting there with his boner right up in the air. "That too unannounced." Valeria was torn between whether to feel bad that he was having sex with someone else. Or whether she should be jealous and show it that he was with others too.
