* next day morning , at office *
* knock at the door *
" Come in "
" Oh hey Mr. Joe " Joe arrived with my coffee , aah he is a saviour , i was having headache from yesterday's night stand , boys are nothing but headache ." Good morning Ma'am , Mr . Lincoln Stewart has arrived , he is waiting downstairs . " He said handing me the coffee .
" Okay .. send him up "
* Knock at the door *
I cleared my throat , adjusted my dress and went up to let him in .
" Pleasure to meet you Ms.Fox "
A deep husky voice , a voice for which i can die for , gave me chills , stood there a handsome , neatly dressed in black suit , nearly 6 ft tall man with the most appealing smile i have ever seen . It was a view to admire .
I was staring at him maybe for a bit too long , when he broke the silence , he coughed" Umm yes , yes ? " I was taken off guard ,
" Pleasure to meet you Ms.Fox "
" All pleasure is mine , Mr.Stewart , please take a seat "
I seated myself , " Would a like tea or coffee ? Or any kind of drinks ? "
" A glass of water would be fine , thank you "
" Hey Mr.Joe , can you send a glass of water and a coffee at my office ? " , " Yes , my regular one "
" So , Ms.Fox , for what am I here ? "
" Well , you're a manufacturer- "
" I know , i am a manufacturer but Ms.Fox , you are THE BIGGEST DESIGNER in Seattle , and my company is just a normal manufacturing company , so why us out of all the biggest manufacturers ? "
" Well , you are a growing manufacturing company , and even if you are new in this business world , you are pretty good and why always we need to choose the biggest for the biggest ? Why not give a chance to the little companies .. maybe they'll also flourish "
I lied , although the thing i told Mr.Stewart was not wrong but it wasn't the truth . I could've easily chosen the big manufacturers instead of Mr.Stewart but when i saw him , there was something i couldn't deny , maybe it was just his appealing smile but still . I never ever risked my business , i know there's plenty chances of Mr.Stewart's company to mess up with the orders which would affect my business but when i saw him for the first time on my laptop screen , i had to meet him . There was a sudden urge to meet him in person and there he is , sitting in my office , in front of me . I don't know what is it , maybe it's lust , but it's something ." Thank you for the opportunity Ms.Fox , really means a lot to our company "
" No need to thank me , i needed a manufacturer "
* From Lincoln Stewart's POV *
That moment when she opened the door to let me in , i saw the most beautiful lady i have ever laid my eyes on .
Her dress , clinging around perfectly on the curves of her body , her little strands of hair on the forehead , untamed but in the sexiest way , but there was no smile on her face , a normal straight look , with a hint of sadness in her eyes .. what caused you pain ? I wish I could take it all . I was mesmerized by the beautiful view in front of me .
There was an awkward silence when i saw her zoned out ," Pleasure to meet you Ms.Fox "
There was something about this lady which pulled me , i can't deny that . I wanted to get to know her but it was too soon to ask her out . She was an independent , free and powerful woman . Yeah , she do have a dark side too , the " high and dump " , ruthless , stone hearted personality which makes her completely opposite of mine , but no one should be judged without knowing the depth and i wanted to know that .
