Just what the hell he wanted to say this clearly to me. 

God, why are all the people here making me go crazy? William and now this grey-eyed monster who is on a new level of making me go crazy. 

Why is he so arrogant? Why can't he say clearly what his bloody problem is? 

I just kept looking at his erect back. Even his back is arrogant. I kept shooting daggers at his bag. If I had superhuman powers I would have turned him into ash. Arrr why don't I have those powers? I would have used them to torture the man who cheated on us and sold our restaurant. 

"If you are done daydreaming then follow me," said the hard voice making me lift my head and look at him with fire in my eyes. He had just slightly turned his head to look at me with steel-grey eyes. Looking into them made all my bravery puff off as those eyes were capable of scaring even Lucifer. I nodded my head slightly. He moved his head as if he was making note of something. I ignored it and followed him with small steps as I wanted to keep as much distance in between us. As he kept walking I kept my distance but once he turned his head again to look at me with his steel-grey eyes making me freeze in my place. 

"Are we doing hare and tortoise racing? Move your small feet fast" he said in his emotionless voice as he got into the elevator gesturing to me to get in fast. I bit my lower lip in restatement and moved in fast. This time I made sure to keep my distance between us as his intimidating power was oozing off him. He again eyed the distance between us with his grey eyes making my body shiver. To avoid eye contact with him I kept looking in front as I felt his eyes on me. His gaze does something to me which I can't put my finger on. I was impatiently waiting for the elevator's door to open as he kept looking at me. I wrapped my arms around my chest and stood erect to show him I was completely calm and composed, not affected by his stares but my impatient tapping foot showed how I felt inside. As soon as I heard the ping of the elevator door getting open I stepped out not waiting for him. I just wanted to get away to breathe properly. I didn't want him to have any other ideas of how my female body was reacting to his every strange action because it looked so inappropriate as if I was disguised as a male. I was about to get out of his sight to breathe in the fresh air but his hard voice stopped me. 

"In my office now" his hard voice bloomed on the floor making me stop on my path of running away. I bite my lower lip in resentment. Why don't I have long legs, or else I would have run away from him quickly even before he could stop me. Saying that he started walking towards his office and I followed him while still chewing on my lower lip. 

What work he has with me now. 

As I stepped into his office I saw him already sitting in his chair looking at some papers. I just walked in and stood in front of him waiting for him to speak but he just kept looking at those papers. Five minutes passed but he still didn't pay any attention to me. Still chewing on my lower lip I kept looking at him and patiently waiting for him to recognize my presence. He just kept ignoring me and piling up the stakes of files on his desk. When he was done piling up almost more than half a meter of files, he looked at me with his grey eyes. 

"Arrange them properly date-wise, all these are important legal documents of our chains of restaurants and hotels," he said in his commanding voice, making me look at him with wide eyes. 

"And I want it to be done today itself," he said in his same commanding voice looking straight into my eyes. Making my eyes wider if it was even possible. I moved my shocked wide eyes from his emotionless face to the stakes of the book. It will take so long to arrange them properly. I don't think I will be able to finish them in my working hours. I need to wait and keep doing it until late.
