SABRINA
"As you can see, if we push our hair products to other countries like Germany, we are sure to increase significant sales in the next four months," I said, avoiding eye contact with the man at the end of the long table who was glaring at me, not even taking his eyes off me when Lily started her presentation.
"So, if we start with doing marketing strategies in other countries, we are going to see a 60% increase in our cosmetic and hair products," Lily finished the presentation.
"Hmm" Despite the palpable sensation of his gaze lingering on me, I refused to look his way, my reluctance driven more by a lack of courage than anything else.
A lot of questions ran through my head when he walked into the room, and I was sure that I would throw up at that moment. From the moment our eyes met, I didn't see the recognition run through them, almost like he knew who I was, which was confirmed when he called my name.
But he couldn't remember that I was the one he took to the hotel last night. We were coming from the club, of all things; he must have been drunk. Plus, he's also known to take women home every night, so most likely he won't remember the faces of the women he fucks.
I pray he didn't.
I can't even begin to comprehend the fact that I fucking slept with my boss the night before I was supposed to have a meeting with him.
There's no fucking way.
We stood in silence, Williams eyes dashing between me and Lily, before settling on me, then he closed the file in front of him and leaned back on his chair.
"This is perfect ladies; thank you. I'll send this over to the marketing team, and then we will wait to hear back from them in a couple of weeks," he nodded at us.
"That will be all. Keep up the work."
Lily beamed at the praise, and the trilling of hair increased.
Lily has been drooling over him from the moment that William set foot through the door, so much so that I worried her eyes would change to heart-shaped.
She had been fanning over him even before she knew what he looked like, but now that he had his eyes on us, mostly me, she buffed her chest as she presented, making her boobs a bit more obvious, and she moved seductively slowly.
And I begged the heavens that he would pay attention to her, but it seems that the heavens were glad to mock me today.
Among the list of things that they did wrong.
Joyous that my torture was over, I unplugged my laptop from the monitor and put it in my bag, along with the charger, before following Lily.
"Miss Sabrina"
I froze, my heart pumping faster at the sound of my name.
"Please stay behind; I need to see you."
This cannot be happening.
Lily raised her eyebrow at me, glaring between me and William, questions running through her head, and mostly jealousy through her veins.
"Miss Sabrina?"
I stare at Lily, pleading to rescue me from this situation, but she just pouts and walks out of the room, strapping me alone with him.
Fuck.
I took a deep breath, wishing that the ground would open up and swallow me whole or that a meteorite would fall down and strike this building—anything to get me out of this predicament.
