Miss Secretary takes charge

Chapter 59

Recap

    Bianca confidently challenged Julie because she was specialised at making bouquets. She made a professional looking bouquet and it was very pretty. Julie casually strolled around, it was therapeutic to be around this pretty garden. All her eyes could find was the different shades of blue flowers, she held them in a bunch. Recently, she had naturally grown fond of the colour blue and she was determined that he would go for blue as well.

     Henry was asked to rate the two bouquets that was placed in front of him. He said, "I would rate them both equally, but this is my favourite" he picked the simple blue bouquet and looked at Julie' pretty blue eyes with a knowing smile.

     Bianca was extremely mad at Julie as she has all of Henry's attention and favouritism. Though the feeling was mutual and natural between Henry and Julie beyond people' understanding, Bianca could not accept the fact that Henry had rejected her.

     She brought tea for everyone, as she served at last to Julie, she wantedly knocked it off and ruined her dress. Since she could not do anything to ruin her relationship with Henry, she was happy to ruin her dress, the least.

     Henry quickly got up and brought the tissue to Julie, though she cleaned the liquid, the stain was evident. Henry was not okay with the incident, as the tea was hot, he kept asking if she was okay or did that burn her skin. She assured him that it just fell on her dress and she immediately got up so no damage done.

      Somehow, Bianca had took her revenge for the morning coffee incident in Julie's apartment. Henry registered his displeasure by not having the tea offered to him. He wouldn't do that to Mr Hebrews, but the scoff smile of Bianca and her unbothered mother irked him. Mr Hebrews walked them out and said,
"Miss Rozana, I would apologise for what happened inside"
Julie was shocked that a man of such stature and age apologising to her.
"Sir please, you don't have to and also it must be an accident"
"I wish too" he sighed deeply and continued
"Anyways, thank you for saving me from the disgrace that might have happened because of her reckless behaviour last night, you both are very kind" they both smiled in response.
"Good to see you both get along well, Elena(Henry's mother) would be happy to see you like this" he held Henry's hands firmly.
Julie asked curiously, "So you were friends with Mrs Kingston?"
"Yes, we both did political science major in the university, she was a warm and a cheerful person. She radiates so much energy around her. She was such a dear friend" Mr Hebrews had a smile thinking about his friend. He hugged Henry and they left.

     Once they got in the car, Henry said,
"Let's get you a dress first" in an annoyed tone.
"Sir that's okay, I shall clean it in the office as it's already nine let's head to the office"
"You know it's healthy to ditch work at times" Henry said playfully. His mood changed in a blink of an eye.
"You are the CEO, you can't be irresponsible"
"Don't you think the CEO has that privilege? Besides you were actually influencing me to skip work for personal commitments" he winked, reminding her own words, she said to Clara. Julie closed her eyes in embarrassment.
"I thought you were happy to be that bad influence on me" he teased.

     Before Julie could respond she was carried away as Mason drove them into a futuristic architectural complex. The building had a unique design that stands out from others. Henry gave out his card for access.
"What place is this?" She asked curiously.
"Renowned brands have their flagship store here, only limited edition variants would be available that are exclusive to this place. You can't find these stuffs in the market"

     Julie took some time to process the facts and the life of ultra-rich was something beyond her imagination. Henry laughed at her expression,
"We are here to Shop not Rob so stop fidgeting Julie" he tugged her hand and took her to a clothing store.
