Alex's POV:
I brought the little firecracker home. For someone who has gone through major trauma and depression enough to commit suicide, she sure has a loudmouth and fiery attitude right now. I was just helping her, and she still had the nerve to treat me like she is the one doing me a favour. I know I yelled at her but that is just coz I am worried about her. Wait what?! No no no no. I am worried about the image of my company. Ugh noooo, I couldn't help but just stare at her as she was sprawled on the bed clutching the sheets to that tiny frame of hers, with her ginger colored hair covering the pillowcase and a treacherous strand sticking out to her lips. All I wanted was to remove the hair, tuck it behind her ear while just once touching those soft pink lips of hers. She looks so goddamn angelic with her eyes closed and mouth shut. While I was watching her sleep, my asshole of a brother came behind me and startled me. "Creepy, brother." I gave him an annoyed glare, pushed him away and walked out of the room.
My brother just couldn't leave me alone. He started following me like a lost puppy and said, "You like her, don't you?" I looked at him as if he has lost his mind. "No, I don't have time for all this bullshit." "Oh really, then why were you just staring at her like the next chance you get, you'll go to the ends of the earth, just to fuck her senseless into oblivion." I ignored my brother's stupid comment and changed the topic. "Instead of just making useless observations, why don't you take care of your things?" He looked nervous at this and scratched the back of his head. He quickly said that it's still in process and went away. Now I am beyond suspicious at this little asshole.
I went to my home office and started flipping through the pages of the files quickly that I had to recheck. While doing that, my mind started conjuring up images of the little firecracker sleeping above. She was almost naked, only with her panties on. She was lying on the bed on her stomach waiting for someone to enter the room. I went ahead and knelt down beside her, turning her around on her back. She giggled playfully as I took in her whole body with my bare eyes, struggling to keep my hands off her. So heavenly. Finally, I gave in to the temptation as I started to trail down the path of her body with my index finger, stopping between the valley of her breasts, circling her nipples, down to her navel and into her panties. She was a moaning mess squirming on the bed trying to hold in her whimpers. As I was about to press my thumb against her clit and taste her wetness, my phone suddenly rang. I was brought out to the reality and my senses came back as I realized I was daydreaming between my work. Fuck, what the hell is happening and who needed to call at this fucking moment. I was frustrated and now I also had a fucking boner. Great.
I looked down to see that it was Amelia calling. I brought her down from London since she'll be a better asset to my company here than there with those bunch of morons. I sighed and picked it up on the fourth ring. "Hello" "Sir, there is an emergency here at the office. Someone leaked the news that some employees might be laid off so now there is a whole chaos among the administrative staff trying to handle and push off the angry employees." She said it all in one breath in a frantic voice. I knew it must be something bad since she is mostly calm in such situations. "I am coming." With that, I quickly cut the call, took a quick cold shower and went to the office to handle the mess.
I reached the office, and upon seeing me, the receptionist's eyes widened, and she quickly made some calls, probably to the upper floors informing them about my arrival. When I reached there, everything and everyone had already fallen into place and there was utter silence. I shoved my hands into my pockets and asked Amelia to take me to the surveillance room. She nodded her head and we quicky reached there. The tech department greeted me, and I nodded my head. "Show me the CCTV footage of the past hour." They hurried and left it open for me to check. I asked Amelia to tell me the names of all the employees from here who are seen lurking outside or around the administrative department and I quickly remembered their names. I went outside and called out all the names. One by one everyone stood up looking around wondering what's going to happen. "You all are fired. Don't ever bother to come back here and disrespect the integrity of my company." With that, I walked away leaving them with their mouths hanging open.
