Aryan sat on his chair his cold eyes fixed on the door, his fingers kept tapping continuously on his desk, seconds went into minutes and he was getting impatient, why was he so agitated that she did run away, even if her resemblance to lily wasn't that much, she has that striking personality of hers not scared of anyone, she so much reminds him of her that letting her go was impossible
He was about standing up to go look for her himself when a soft knock came
" Come in" his deep cold voice came, his eyes fixed intently on the door
He saw his assistant coming in then a small figure was following behind him his face darkened recognizing her
He stood up and walk towards them
" Where did you find her" his baritone tone echoed loudly making lillia jump up, David was not an exception,
" At home" David muttered almost immediately hasn't seen his boss that angry in years he could feel it, why was he so angry
" Any explanation to do lillia" Aryan roared at her his lips twitched in annoyance his wasn't that angry anymore learning that she didn't run away so what kept her at home was she trying to defy him
Lillia bit her lips hard as she hid at David's broad back she wasn't ready to face that scary man,
Aryan got upset at her reaction how dare she
He glared hard at David, David seeing his presence was no longer needed bowed at his boss, threw a glance at the small being behind before leaving the office
Now left was only Aryan and lillia
Lillia was now counting the tiles beneath her, noticing that her shoe had a peel she twitched her lips, head bent She could feel the hot gaze that was fixed on her
" Lillia" he called out she froze not because he called her, but it's his voice it carried so much coldness that it sounded so grave to her, she slowly looked up at him, his face was devoid of warmth so as his eyes
" I asked you a question lillia answer" he didn't shout at her like before but then lillia could feel the suppressed anger in it
" I..... I.. i.t" she stuttered she couldn't find the right word to say, she did it purposely just to piss him off, like the maid said he did send her away if she was late, so why wasn't he sending her away, why did he need an explanation
Aryan throat worked up his eyes dimmed at her response she had no explanation to give she did it purposely just to annoy him
" So you decided to stay up late just to piss me off huh.. lillia" he stressed on her name
Lillias eyes widened as he cut her red-handed how did he know
Aryan seeing her reaction now knew his taughts was right
He grabbed her shoulders sunddenly
" Answer me" he roared
"Yes I did" she shouted back
" Yeah I wanted to piss you off what you gonna do about it" she continued staring at him wide eyed the plan for him to get so angry and send her off
His blue eyes eyes dimmed more at her response, he squeezed her shoulders hard
" Really huh?" He asked his anger intensifying
Lilia ignored the pain on her shoulders at she continuously stared back at him
" Yes, just fucking let me go Don't need your job, your money, nothing" she continued this time pointing at his chest
"You can deprive me of getting a job anywhere in this country I don't fucking care you gerit, I don ...."
"But you will if you grandma is no more" he cut her off, plastering his develish smirk
Her eyes widened, stinging as she tried to hold back her tears
" You will do nothing to her" she spat, holding weakly unto his shirt
" Don't make this harder for you lillia" he said holding unto her shaky hands, he took them off him, throwing her a cold smirk, he pointed towards a cubicle by the side of his office
" That's your office, start working lillia" he said without sympathy and walked past her
Lillia heaved a defeated sigh, this man has cut her in a web, if she dared run away her grandma will take the blame, if she refused to work her love ones will be hurt, she was at the bad side, she threw his retreating back a dark glare, bit her lips in anger, that moment she felt like killing him.
Her eyes followed him as he went round and sat on his chair as graceful as ever
" Standing there and glaring at me won't help you miss lillia, you are already late, you know what I mean" he said coldly
She twitched her lips at his words, without much taughts she strode to her cubicle her mind moulded, she didn't have the zeal to look around it, she went straight to the well arranged desk, brought out her chair and sat down
She stared down at the stark of papers on her desk in awe,
When was she going to finish all of them she taught, she turned to give him a questionable look and she could swear she caught him smilling, her eye's dimmed in annoyance it was done purposely " such a wicked man" she groaned inwardly
She heaved a sigh, before taking one of the papers
