Chapter 4

Ivan's POV
Still angry I had missed the first interview for my newest executive, I drove recklessly on the highway.
Firstly, mom had started with her pep talks of me getting married soon and giving her grandkids.
Damn!i was just 24 years.
Like the good son I was I couldn't escape, only to get out of her invisible grasp an hour later.
I hard missing a meeting especially with the potential savior of Flyway Tech Aviation Agency.
The HRO had refused to reveal the individual's name, but said he or she was expertly recommended.
Dissuaded from my thoughts at the view of a woman flagging cars down in distress, I pulled over right behind her.
Nothing made me more happy than helping a damsel in distress.
I walked over to the brunette who was now back faced and didn't seem to notice me.
"Anything the problem?" I gained her attention as she turned around, leaving me frozen.
It was her.
Alexandra Terrence, the one and only.
"Hum...yeah, my car broke down, my phone's dead, my daughter's still in school at this time. Can my day get any better?" She went hysterical not even a glimpse of recognition in her.
"Did you hear me?"
" Y-yeah...let's see what the problem is " I walked over, being choked by soot.
I could hardly concentrate, my mind in shambles.
When did I lose her?
"This is bad" I spoke dusting my hands.
"Oh My! What do I do now?poor Aubrey" tears clouding her eyes.
"Why don't I take you?" I offered, having the urge to spend more time with her.
"NO!" She exclaimed instantly
" I mean...I'd be fine don't worry. You must have more important things to do"
"Nothing can be more important, let's go"
"No,no no. You must have things to do, please I'll be fine" she continued arguing, giving the impression that she finally recognized me.
"Oh well, I guess your beautiful daughter will be left in school then." I shrugged, turning around.
I heard her sigh, before calling me back.
This was going to be a hell of a day.
