LORENZO

As I leaned against the car, I waited for Samuel outside his house. He promised he would be home at this time, but he hadn't arrived. I took my phone and checked for any new emails. I looked up and noticed a cute girl walking towards me. She looked so lost and kept staring at her phone, she does have a structure, not my type, but I would still sleep with her. She wasn't even looking straight, so lost in her phone. I blocked her way and hoped she would dodge, but her head hit my chest, and she ended up falling.

"Are you OK?" I asked her and extended my hand to help her up. She took my hand and I immediately got hold of her waist. I was staring at her face, which was just a few inches away.

"Yep fine. Thanks, and I'm sorry for not looking straight". I released her body and chuckled. She said thanks and left. After a few weeks, I noticed her with Louis. I wanted to know about her and why she is with him. I got her information and I came to know about her. I haven't got a chance to meet her and have a word.

I arrived at one of my partner companies. I came here to sign the documents and to meet my friend. The meeting started once I entered, and we all discussed a few changes, they had made. Once the meeting was done, I left the meeting room. I walked out of the building, hoping the driver had arrived. I informed him about picking me up, and he hasn't shown up yet.

When I was about to dial his number, I noticed a familiar figure coming out of the Martinez building. I immediately ran across the road and stood blocking her way with a smile on my face. She dodged to her left and right, then looked at me with a puzzled look on her face. It took a few minutes for her to remember.

"Remember me?"

"Yeah," she said as she nodded.

"Can I get you a coffee?" If you are free and if you don't mind.

"I'm free and would love to have a coffee."

I took her hand and looked at her. She just smiled. We walked to the nearest restaurant and sat on a table.

ELSA POV

Leaving my room, I grabbed my handbag and walked towards the lift. I haven't spoken a word since Wednesday, and I'm not ready to talk to him. How could he spy on me and tell me that he was concerned? Concerned my ass! Upon his departure, I did not want to work for him again, but I had no choice left.

There wasn't much work today, and when I went inside his office and gave him the files, he asked me to have the rest of the day to myself. I mentally thanked him, I really needed a bubble bath and good food. I headed outside the building and walked towards the supermarket to get Groceries that had to be restocked.

I texted Andrew and Sophia that I'm having the rest of the day off. As I was walking straight, someone was blocking my path. I dodged to my right, those Oxford shoes moved right, I moved left, and the shoes moved left. I looked up and noticed a similar face, it took me a few minutes to recognize him.

"Remember me?" asked the wall guy. I bumped into him on my first day in London.

"Yeah."

"Can I get you a coffee?" "If you are free and if you don't mind." I had no plans, so I said yes. He took my hand and dragged me to the nearest restaurant. We sat at the nearest table, and he ordered lunch for both of us. A confused look crossed my face.

I asked him if we were going to have coffee, and he said he hadn't eaten lunch yet, so I agreed.

"Elsa Edward, right?"

"How do you know about me?" I'm new here, apart from Louis and his family. I don't think anybody knows about me. How could he know about me?

"I have my sources." He winked.

"What if your sources are wrong about me?"

"They are never wrong, Love." I blushed at the word love. It's been a long time since someone has called me by name apart from my family.

"Okay. Let me ask you a few questions and I will decide." I asked him a few questions and didn't expect him to answer correctly. He answered correctly everything about my family, my favourite things. I was shocked. He smiled at me and our food arrived.

"So," he asked. I took a bite of my food and looked at him.

"So?" I repeated.

"Can we be friends?" I laughed at the question.

"Let us have our lunch first, then we will decide about that." He finished his lunch soon, and he was waiting for me to finish, I had the urge to laugh, but I didn't.

"Now tell me," he asked.

"Hmm, why do you want me as your friend?"

"Haha, I don't want your friendship." What the f-

"What! Then what do you want?" He just asked me to be his friend, right?

"Your heart!" He said with a smirk. I rolled my eyes hearing it.

"Oh! Common, stop playing games and tell me what you want from me?"

"Okay. If I say what I want, will you give me that?"

"Don't ask for kisses because I won't give"

I know I'm stupid, but when he asked me to give him what he wanted, the first thing that came to my mind was a kiss. I always dreamed of having my first kiss with the person I love. That's why I instantly said I couldn't kiss him if he was planning to ask. He chuckled at my answer and shook his head in No.

"You tell me what you want, and I will tell you my answer."

"I love you and want you as my wife. Will you be my better half?" What the heck? Is he stupid? How can he just fall in love with me?

"Love? Haha, we bumped into each other that day. I don't see love anywhere. How can you fall in love with someone you met a few weeks back? Lorenzo, I don't know what games you are playing, but I don't want to join in that. To top it off, I know nothing about you except your name." I said and stood up abruptly. Placed a few Pound notes on the table for the food he bought. When I was about to leave, he got hold of my hand.

"Where are you going?" We haven't finished our conversation yet."

"I'm leaving, our conversation ends here." I left.

Took a taxi and reached home. Had a bubble bath to calm myself and changed into a comfortable PJ. Decided to watch K-Drama to escape from the real world. My phone started ringing. I looked at the caller ID and it was Dada. We both talked and told him that I liked the job, the boss (I lied about this part alone) and the whole place. As we were talking, at the end of the call, he promised me he would be visiting soon, and he would take me out shopping and to the theme park.
