SPARK

Chapter Eight♥️

***

At Leonard's office...

Leonard unlocked his door and walked into his office. Thinking about Lucy and Marian; He was so tired of both of them already.

'Lucy used to be very hard-working and concerned about the company but Marian attracts her attention ever since she came. It seems all they do these days is gossiping. The both of them are just birds of the same feathers anyways, I'm not surprised. They're just so useless.' Leonard thought and glances at his wrist watch.

"Why isn't Amelia here yet?" He gave a frown at the thought. "Didn't she get home safely?"

Leonard took his seat before placing his shiny, black suite case on the table. He felt really stressed but that wouldn't stop him from working.

Minutes later...

Marian walked into his office.
She took off her upper jacket and it was only her white, transparent singlet with a short miniskirt on her body. She let her blond, wavy hair loose... it's looked so silky and it barely touched her back.

"Good morning darling."
She catwalked to his corner, placing a file on his table.

However, Leonard didn't seem to pay attention. He was busy working on a project and she's just a distraction.

"Ummm... I just greeted you." She said, already feeling neglected.

"I'm not deaf, Marian. Say what you want and leave my office. As you can see, I'm busy." He returns his eyes on his typing.

"Oh! I don't mean to disturb you but... I see you're working all alone. Perhaps, where's your P.A? Shouldn't she be here by now? Or what's her duty?" She asked, staring at Leonard seductively.

Leonard kept quiet, unable to answer any of her unnecessary questions.

"Maybe she's just so incompetent and you gave her so much trust and responsibilities." Marian walked to Leonard's seat and sat on his table, right next to his laptop.

"Aren't you listening to me at all?" She rolled her eyes at him and laughed. "Are you even listening to me at all?" She muttered, throwing her head backwards and facing Leonard. Face to face. She closed his laptop and pulled it aside.

"Are you out of your mind?" He fired at her, his eyes streaming with anger.

She was so frightened but she managed to grab his defined jaws with both hands and planted a soft kissed unto them. In between, he flinched away making Marian fall and stagger. Almost slapping her butt to the ground but she maintained balance on her 6 inches, high heels.

She stood back to her feet, eyeballing him with so much disappointment while Leonard stood up from his swivel chair.

"I thought you loved me, Leo. What's up now? What changed?! Tell me!" She cried. Anger and pain lacing her voice.
"You gave me all the work and attention before that incompetent witch stepped in here and I did everything you asked without even complaining. What does she have that I don't? Tell me? What am I not capable of? What did you want in a woman that I don't have?!"

"Just get out if my office Marian. You disgust me with your stupid thoughts and meaningless questions!"

"So all of a sudden I d...disgust you? Did you just say I disgust you? Despite all I've done for you, Leo. It's almost a year and I've help you and your business grow! We've been friends for a while now. You've never even given me chance to prove to you what I'm capable of, neither have you acknowledged my efforts?"
