The way you should be loved

Chapter Twenty Nine

That kiss wasn't the end of it I know of it. Both my dad and Jon told me to stay as Jordan's PA. My dad says it because I am the best one for the job. I feel like they are pushing me towards Jordan. I know they are pushing me towards Jordan. Now I was sitting in my dad's office again the day after I was crying in Jon's arms in the ladies bathroom. I wanted to transfer from the job. I couldn't work with him if old feelings were floating around. And since he kissed me in his office, I can't.

"What's the problem?" my dad asked with the authority of a CEO, not my dad.

"I know you want me to work alongside Jordan. But I can't".

" But you are perfect together".

"But".

"No buts. If you can't give me a plausible reason then you are to stay where you are".

Now I wanted to say Please dad not fair. But I can't as my dad is acting as a CEO, not my father. I can't shout out it's because he kissed me yesterday. I haven't even told Jon about it either. I had a poor nights sleep over it as I kept dreaming about it. My CEO dad is sitting behind his huge desk making me more scared than when I was little. Now I feel like a naughty little kid. I feel so small sitting in that chair in front of the desk. I feel like I'm being intimidated into staying somewhere I don't feel comfortable. I am also being intimidated by Jordan too especially after yesterday.

I get up to go. But by the time I reached the door he is there in a flash. His body pressed up against me pushing my back into the door. I wonder what he is going to do. Oh, I know what he is going to do. I can feel the tension between us. The old flame was relighted. The smell of sexual tension was in his office. I needed to get away from this moment. The old spark was there still. Then his lips crashed onto mine. I push him in the chest. I can't let this happen. It won't happen.

" So if you are not going to tell me what's going on. Then you're to stay in the marketing department as Jordan's PA. Do I make myself understood?".

"Yes".

"I will see you and Jon for Sunday dinner. The Knights will be there too".

I nod as I get up from the chair. I couldn't talk as I was near to tears because I feel let down by my own father as he would not let me leave the job he so kindly put me in. He knew who was going to my boss. I can't believe after all that has been going on he set me up to work alongside Jordan of all people.

As I walked out of my dad's office Jordan was waiting in a chair. Luckily he didn't look up at me as I went past. I know my dads is going to talk to him about what's going on? Or is it do with the plan they have. No, it's got to be about us. I know. I quickly went back to my desk before he looked up. I don't want him to see me. I did notice that he had cut his hair. It was back to his normal haircut like before he went on his travelling.

" You may go in now," Maggie says to Jordan. He goes into my dad's office and I go in the other direction back to my desk.

Once I got to my desk I noticed a few notifications on my phone next to my computer. Most were from Jon, some from my mom and my friend Emily.

Jon: How did it go?

I decided to call him then text him back. Especially with Jordan still with the CEO, my dad. It rang on the fourth ring.

Hello.

"I thought it's better to ring than to text".

So how did it go?

" Dad wants there for dinner on Sunday".

I know. Mom has already making sure I'm going. And yes before you ask. He is coming too.

"Oh okay".

Anyways you never answered my question.

" I am still to work with him. My dad thinks I am the best one for the job. He thinks we are great together and will make a great team. If I couldn't give a good reason to why I couldn't work with him, I was to stay where I was".

While I was talking to Jon, I powered up my computer to start work once I finish talking to Jon. I was attached to the phone by my left ear and was also looking at the screen of my computer. Jon was still talking to me as I could footsteps coming towards me. Then followed by a cough. I look up and the brother was glaring down at me.

"Personal call during company time".

" I'm talking to your brother actually".

"Still a personal call. To be done in your own time, Bethan".

He has never called me Bethan as it's always been, Beth. What's got him? I wonder as I watch him go into his office.

Don't worry about him. Dropped as a baby. He has always been jealous of everyone when he doesn't get his way.

" Okay".

See you later. Next time text me okay. That way you don't upset Mr Power Trip.

"You think he's that bad".

Nah he's just my baby brother. See you later.

I was still chatting with Jon. The phone next to me buzzed and Jordan's voice bellowed out of it.

I need a word with you. Are you actually working as I don't hear you using the computer? (Jordan)

I was now getting annoyed with him that I pretended to use the computer by tapping the keys really hard making a noise.

That's no way to treat office equipment (Jordan).

Arrrrggghhhhh.

I will leave you to it. I hear Jon say.

"Bye. See you later Jon" I say.

Bye Beth.

I hung up my cell phone. I start looking at the spreadsheets that I set up for Jordan to help with him sorting out the Marketing department.

My office now.

Great, what got up in his pants today? I get up and go to his office. There he was leaning in his chair with his feet up on the desk looking very smug.

" Yes boss, what would you like?".

"I like the ring to that. Boss" he says with a smirk on his face.

"Are you going to apologise for what happened yesterday?".

" What for?".

Is he serious?

"When you kissed me?".

" Why apologise?".

"But we are nothing now. I'm with Jon" as I sit down. "Did my dad say anything"?

" No why?" He raises a brow at me. I know he thinks I said something. "Told Jon yet".

" No. Why would I? if nothing is going to come of it".

He is teasing now I know it as he stretches his arms over his head. He smiles at me as his abs show now his shirt has risen. "But you can't stop looking at me".

" Because we have history. That's all it is. History".

"It's only the beginning. You and I are always meant to be together".

" YOU BROKE IT UP".

"A mistake I made. Okay. You will always be mine".

" I am not yours. You lost that when you broke up with me" I yelled out "I'm going to do some work".

He glared at me. Then look down at his computer and then pretended to pick up the phone and call someone. I sighed deeply at his childish antics. I then left the room. The rest of the day he never left his office unless he did when I was at lunch. I didn't see him when I left at five either. Sunday dinner is going to be fun with the whole family if he is acting like a spoilt brat of a child.
