I Want You To Want Me

chapter 4: mixed feelings

~one week later ,at Ambrose's office~

"I don't get it, I just don't get it. Why did she walk out on me like that? She didn't even tell me her name. Such an arrogant hag". Ambrose was frustrated.
"She's not a hag Ambrose, just get over it. You got lots of arm candy don't you? No reason why you should be throwing a tantrum" Ray was trying to calm Ambrose down. "No woman does that to Ambrose Garcia and gets away with it".
"You're letting your big ego get in the way. You probably scared her away with your perverseness. I don't understand why you care so much."
"I don't care"
Ray had a mischievous look on his face "So why are you so angry about the fact that she ignored you?"
Before he could respond his PA walked in, she was actually strutting. Swaying her hips just to get his attention. Her outfit screamed ' ravish me now '.
She actually was having a sexual relationship with Ambrose, her boss. She was carrying a mug of coffee. "I brought you coffee, you look a bit tense".
Ambrose was unimpressed. He could see what she was trying to do. Typical gold digger. "I'm in the middle of something Patricia. Go away".
Ray was shocked. Ambrose always sent him away each time Patricia entered his office just so he could take her on his office table. He knew Ambrose loved every moment of it. But today he actually sent her away instead.
Patrica was annoyed but there was nothing she could do, she got out of the office. "That's a first" Ray broke the silence.
"I need to find that girl" Ambrose sounded desperate. "Why?" A confused Ray asked. "Are you in love with her?"
"Of course not! I don't fall in love. You know that."
"Then why do you need to find her? "
"So I can have my way with her, as I always do with all my sweet arm candy."

~30 minutes later~

Patricia went back to Ambrose's office. This time he was alone. She didn't even knock. "I didn't hear you knock" Ambrose said without even casting a single glance at her. Something which she wasn't accustomed to. "Ambrose, why are you being so standoffish today?"
"None of your business Patricia" he said coldly.
She walked over to him and then sat on his lap, "you're too tense honey, lucky for you I know how to calm you down". She said it with a sexy smile on her face. He didn't react.
" I think you need a little incentive" she started unbuttoning the shirt she was wearing revealing the lacy red bra underneath. Ambrose stopped her before she could go any further. "Not today, I'm not in the mood". He clearly wasn't into it. "Close the door on your way out".
"That's it, I've had it with you. Is there another girl? Why are you ignoring me like this?". She was frustrated. "We aren't dating Patricia, last time I checked having a no strings attached relationship is what we agreed upon. If you're not comfortable anymore walk away".
"You're being unfair. I genuinely like you Ambrose. I want us to be more than just sex buddies"
"Correction, you genuinely like my money and the prestige being with me brings. I don't feel anything for you Patricia, that's the truth. In fact we should go back to having a professional relationship only."
"Are you seriously ending what we have?" She said with a tear in her left eye. "Yes Patricia, it was fun while it lasted."
Patricia was mad and vowed to make his life uncomfortable. Drama queen.

~at his mansion, 2 hours later ~

Ambrose was grumpy all day. He snapped at is maid, snapped at his personal driver and refused to eat anything.  "Give me my best wine Lucy". Lucy was like a mother to him, closest thing to a mother he had. "He actually respected her despite the fact that she was the maid.
He drank the whole bottle and went to bed beyond drunk. For the first time in his life he didn't understand what he was feeling, he didn't even know what it was.
