Contract Agreement With My Bestfriend

Chapter 40: Celebrity Crush

I got so used to Sarah always coming to visit me in my room all the time.

Today, it was different.

I haven't gotten any text from her at all.

She usually invite me to eat and hang out.

Maybe she was busy. I thought to myself.

I decided to work out on their hotel gym to kill some time.

Ivan was sleeping right now so I can't bother to call him.

When I got to the elevator, it was about to close already. I saw Sarah talking and laughing closely with another guy.

I took the next elevator since I was already late on the first.

I shrugged the thought out of my mind and focus on my workout.

I was busy running on the treadmill when my mind kept going back to the scene where I saw Sarah with the guy on the elevator.

My curiousity is killing me.

I didn't even notice the stare the other guys were giving me.

I really don't like working out alone because I always feel the other guys staring and gazing at my body. I mostly work out with Ivan. Guys are more careful when I'm with him. They don't openly stare at me when he is around.

I hit the speed button and start running faster to get my frustration out of me.

After thirty minutes, I stop running and got myself some water.

I really can't take it anymore.

I have to know who the guy she was talking to.. and why he was being so close to flirting with Sarah.

I went to the rest room and wash my face and wipe myself with my towel.

Then I went to see Sarah in her office.

I saw the same guy leaving her office before I got to knock on her door.

He was grinning and waving at her.

He saw me approaching and gave me a friendly smile.

I know I should have return the favor and smiled back but something about him ticks me off so I ended up ignoring me.

"Hi Sarah.." I greeted her.

She smiled back at me.

"Oh hey.. working out?" She replied after she saw my workout attire.

I nodded.

"Who was that guy? He doesn't seem to work for you." I mentioned.

"Oh Steve.." she chuckled lightly.

I walked closer and I nodded.

He seem oddly close to be her subordinate. 

"He's one of my business partners. An investor.." she replied.

That still doesn't explain why they were being close and flirty.

"What were you guys talking about?" I asked.

She probably sense the annoyance in my tone.
