Boy oh Boy ! Gone was the arrogant handsome boss. In his place was a freaky man sitting there with a weird expression plastered at his face. He looked like an evil Mafia boss ready to kill anyone who came in his way. To say Holly was scared was the understatement of the millennium. Holy Mother of Good Golly ! Even the evil look suited him. God ? What were you thinking when you made this fine piece of a- I mean man ? He should be made illegal in this country.
"Ah.. Holly. I see you are here." He was still giving her the weird look. "Uh.. um.. I-I- umm.. Yes, s-sir." Holly stuttered out uncomfortably. She really hated it when people gave her weird looks. It made her want to run and hide in a dark corner. "S-sir ? Is their something wrong with your right eye ? Why does it keep twitching ?"
Sure... Only you can ask a dumb question during such situations..
She cursed under her breath and apologized to him for asking such a thing. "Meh.. It's no big deal.", he all but squeaked out. Holly's head snapped towards him. She had to hold her breath to stop herself from laughing her butt out.
Ethan cleared his throat to get his normal macho voice back. "Um... what I mean to say is uh.. that it's not a big deal. I know you have many questions. And after what I am going to tell you, you are going to bombard me with questions." Now, Holly was confused.
Confusion + Holly = Trouble, Trouble and lots of trouble..
"What do you mean ? Are you alright ? Are you sick ? Did someone beat you up ? But why don't I see any bruises, if someone did beat you up ? Oh My GOD! Are you firing me ? Please don't fire me ! I promise I'll work hard. And I also promise to not to call you a pig. And I also promise not to bitch about Caroline 'The office Hoe Bag'. Please... please... please... Don't fire me. Please Mr.Mars. I'll do anything. I will do your laundry. I'll cook you food. Anything, Just anything.. Don't fire-" Her rant was cut short with Ethan slamming his hand on the desk.
Ethan sighed and looked at her and gave her a once over. She was very pretty. With her long, Straight, Dark brown hair. Hazel brown eyes, a cute button nose and sensual full mouth, longs tanned legs, she could become a runway model. He sighed again, he had a lot of convincing to do.
"Take a seat, will you?", Ethan motioned her to take a seat. She hesitated at first but then sat down. He was about to tell her when he was cut off by the phone ringing. "Hold on a minute, Holly." Ethan told her. He went to pick up the phone. The call was from an unknown number.
"Hello, Am I speaking to Mr.Mars ?" The voice from the other end asked. "Yes. Who is this?" Ethan replied. Who would call him at this time ?
"Hello, Mr. Mars. I am speaking from the London city hospital. I would suggest you get here as soon as possible. Mr.King and Mrs.King have met with a fatal accident and are currently undergoing surgery. Rest of the information would be given to you as soon as you reach here. "
Ethan abruptly dropped his phone. The shock was too much to handle. "Holly, I want you to pack your stuff. We going to the hospital. Maximus was in an accident and is in a critical situation." He instructed Holly. She just nodded and told him that she would meet him near the car.
