The Mafia Boss's Bride

Chapter 20 : Visit my office?

Ava and Farah left the campus, but as they were making their way towards the gate. Ava's gaze shifted towards the entrance, and there she saw Ibrahim, standing tall and imposing, wearing black suit and white shirt underneath. And Students around were turning their heads, whispering about him. His sharp eyes scanned the crowd, searching for Ava among the students.

Ava furrowed her brow and muttered to Farah, "Why is he here? Samir or Faisal should be here instead." Farah reassured her, "Go to him; we'll meet tomorrow." With a quick goodbye, Ava separated from her friend and approached Ibrahim. Upon spotting her, a warm smile crept across Ibrahim's face. He greeted her, "How was your day, Ava?" 

Ava nodded, "Let's leave this place. Everyone is staring."

Once they were seated inside, Ibrahim couldn't help but notice the scratch on Ava's hand. Concerned, he gently held her hand and asked, "What happened, Ava?"

Ava quickly thought of her cover story, saying, "I just tripped on the stairs."

Ibrahim raised an eyebrow, "Really?"

Ava nodded and moved her hand from his grip. Ibrahim started the car and asked, "Have you take your lunch?" 

While looking at the window, Ava said, "Yes."

The sun was setting, casting a beautiful colors across the sky, creating stunning patterns that caught Ava's eye. But she couldn't let herself be distracted. She needed to find a way to get closer to Ibrahim, to gain more information about his criminal activities.

Ava turned her gaze towards him, noticing his concentration on the road. She took a deep breath and decided to take the chance. "Ibrahim, I'd like to visit your office." Though she knew, she won't get much information about him in his office. But it would be a safe option without increase any doubt from Ibrahim.

Ibrahim glanced at Ava with curiosity, "Visit my office?"

Ava simply nodded, her gaze fixed ahead on the road.

Ibrahim smirked and threw a teasing question her way, "What does he want in return?"

Ava finally looked back at him and responded, "What does he want?"

Ibrahim chuckled, "I'll tell you after we visit my office. For now, let's head there."

Ava's voice trembled, "If you want to break our commitment, I won't allow that."

 "I won't go further by breaking your condition. Relax, baby girl." Ibrahim assured her. 

Ava furrowed her brow and questioned, "Why are you calling me 'baby girl'? My name is Ava."

Ibrahim turned to her with a playful smirk and replied, "I like to call you 'baby girl.'"

Ava let out an exasperated sigh,"Ufff, this man..."

The journey continued and they entered Ibrahim's office building, The Rahman Enterprise. Ibrahim led Ava through the entrance and lobby, past tight security checks. Ava couldn't help but notice the respectful greetings from the employees, acknowledging her as the boss's wife. 

They reached the fourth floor where Ibrahim's office was located. As they entered, Ava couldn't help but observe the well-appointed space. His office was spacious and tastefully decorated, with large windows that offered a view of the city skyline.

Ava looked around to see the office and commented, "The security was so high in this building, is the whole building his?"

Ibrahim calmly removed Ava's backpack from her shoulder and placed it on the sofa. He confirmed, "Yes, the entire building belongs to me." He gestured toward a chair and instructed, "Sit there."
