LOVE TO TEASE

Chapter 15( Is it that wrong?)

(Kiara's POV)

I'm distracted as hell on the back to my office. My mind running like a herd of wild stallions, wondering all sorts of things, until I just can't keep it in for one more second.

"What was his full name again?" I ask William.

William's dark gaze falls to mine and his brows pull together, "didn't I tell you before". I nodded and he sighs." It's Mr. Harvey Arthur and don't ask me again".

I can't help the small grin and that tugs at my lips as I breath the name," Mr. Arthur..... Robert Arthur's son".

"No, idiot". William chuckles." If he heard that you're definitely dead Robert is Harvey uncle. Don't ever say that in front of him".

He's right every social media platform filled with the same news that he doesn't like his uncle family and no one knows the reason. But again if he hate his uncle then why he agree to work for him....

We reach my office and Willam lightly shoves me and walk inside the office standing right next to my desk, before I can even ask him anything else my gaze stick at desk and I wiggle myself closer.

"Again a bouquet of roses, seriously what's the occasion girl?" William asked.
"I have no idea". I admitted. Surprise and pleasure warred for dominance in my chest.

"Is it from Harvey again?" William asked.
"I couldn't come up with reason why he'd be sending me roses again?"

"Maybe just because flowers are the best and easy way to impress someone." William skimmed his fingers over a velvety Petal.
"And who knows what going on in Harvey's mind?"

The pleasure edge out the surprise until I found a tiny card with my name written on the front. I flipped it over, and my stomach plummeted.

"It's not From Harvey?"

"Who's it then......"he took card from my hand and read out loud.

Kiara ❤️

Congratulations and best wishes for your new project as a project head I know you're going to make it awesome as always....

And I'm really sorry...... Baby.

Yours, Mike.
If you don't mind can we talk?

A disappointment and confusion brewed in my stomach. I don't know why his sending me flowers should make more sense than Harvey sending me right?

"Oh God.....yours Mike. Seriously?" William scoffs." He have no shame Kiara. I'm so done with this guy he really likes boiling my blood for no good reason. And you should.....'

"Is it from Mike Moore?" The deep velvety voice wrenched my gaze to the entrance.

Harvey stood in the doorway, with Louis, his gaze set on the rose bouquet.
My pulse skittered into overdrive.

I slid my gaze at William who take one step towards Harvey.

"Don't you think you're involving yourself too into her business, Harvey?"

He murmured something to Louis. Louis take a moment to calm himself and nod his head. "Ok."
"William can I have a quick chat with you if you don't mind, please?" Louis said with forced smile on his face.

"Well, why not. Let's go. He said with his stupidly bright voice. And you don't even think about doing something with her while I'm away. Got it?"

Fucking asshole, my glare screamed at him and he totally ignored that because of his Lou....
I was never going to save him from his manager again.

He brushed past Harvey with a warning pat on his shoulder, and I watched, stomach twisting as he walked toward me and set his gaze on the bouquet.

He flipped the note and read it wordlessly, his jaw ticking in rhythm with each passing second.

"It's nothing important just a stupid appreciation bouquet, nothing else." I said when the silence became too oppressive to bear.

Wait.....why I'm explaining myself to him.....

"Why are you explaining that to me? Little gazelle".
Harvey dropped the card like it's a trash for him. "And my question was is it from Mike Moore? And your telling the purpose of this bouquet."

I inhaled a soft breath for courage.
"Yes it's from Mike. He's my boss".

Harvey's eyes sparked." And your ex-boyfriend too right?"

"Yes", I don't have to lie to him, and ofcourse it's not hard for him to know everything about Mike, he's also a member of Arthur family, anyway it's all over now I don't care about him anymore.

"Isn't that he's getting married at the end of the month then why he's sending you flowers and love notes?" He asked in the same Fucking calm tone of his.

"It's not a love note".
"Then why it's looks like one to me."
Harvey ground his teeth. "And what does he mean by yours Mike and can we talk?"
"I already told him it's over whatever we used to have. He doesn't get it, I guess."
I don't know why but I want to tell him the whole truth.

Harvey's eyes set on me, "obviously he doesn't, otherwise he didn't sent you these flowers."
I don't know why but he sounds upset.
"I can't control what other people do or think. For me what over is over."

"Hmmm... great, that's why I always ended up impressed by this little gazelle."
" What? .... I mean why are you so interested in my love life and stop calling that."

Harvey's jaw visibly tenes as he moves in so close to me, we're almost zipped together. He places his palm flat on back of my waist, our eyes stuck together all the while. At the sudden feel of his touch, my eyes briefly droop shut and I swallow hard.

"Do you still love him? "He asks in his usual Stern tone.
I could only gape at him until I rustled up the words I could find. "I don't know."
