LOUIS

"You asked for five minutes, but you took more than five. What were you doing? Where are the rest files? Did it take you half an hour to submit these five files? What the fuck is wrong with you?" I shouted at her. I didn't know what had got into me, but I lost it completely.

I couldn't get it off my mind that she had lunch with Lorenzo. Why has it to be him? I would still be mad even if it wasn't Lorenzo. I know she is off-limits, yet I have this craving for her. I couldn't control my body when she was around me. Why she has to be off-limits?

My phone rang and I noticed it was Jessica. She is my best friend's sister, a model. We use each other physically and we both appear together in front of the media to avoid other tabloids.

"What do you want this time?" I directly jumped into the question.

"I want you on Friday."

"What for?"

"Can I explain when we meet?" Are you free now?"

"Now? No, but -" I stopped in the middle of the sentence since I had asked Elsa to set up a meeting with the planning team, and we needed to visit the construction site. Then I remembered her and Lorenzo together, and my heart ached.

"You know what? I'm cancelling all my appointments for you, and we can have lunch together."

"Wonderful, I will be there around fifteen minutes."

"Can you check with the receptionist, before you head to my office?"

"What?"

"Just do it."

"You better have a good reason for this." I chuckled and hung up.

After an hour

The intercom buzzed. It was Elsa informing Jessica she wanted to see me, and if I would be free to have lunch with her. I said yes asked Elsa to bring the files, and called the construction team asking for the blueprint, asking them to submit it to my table by the end of the day.

Elsa brought those files. She looked shorter than her usual height while carrying those files. I left a snort. She placed the files and rough drafts, and I complained about the silly mistakes that she must have forgotten to notice. I looked up when I heard the door open. It was Jessica. I smirked. Perfect timing.

I stood up from the chair and hugged her, starting to kiss her as if my life depended on her. Elsa cleared her throat, and we both stopped kissing and looked at her. I straightened my shirt and asked her to leave, also informed her to cancel all the appointments for the rest of the day. She just nodded and left.

I was staring at her Until she disappeared behind the door. When I turned my head back, Jessica was smiling widely. I shook my head and went to grab my Coat.

"Who is She?"

"My Assistant"

"New one? Where did you find her?"

"Dad and she is Uncle James's Daughter."

"Stop Questioning. Now tell me why do you want me on Friday?" She started explaining how she met her soulmate as we were headed to the lift. I glanced one last time at Elsa's Office just to look at her face! No, Just to know what she is doing. Get yourself together. We stepped into the lift.

"Who is this new guy?" I questioned as I started the engine and headed to the restaurant.

"Oh My God! He is the best Guy." I glanced at her and chuckled.

"I thought I was the best, I remember you screaming my name," I said.

"I didn't mean the sex. You Idiot." I laughed and stopped the engine when we reached the restaurant. She continued as we both got down and walked inside.

"He has hunter-green eyes. He is a doctor, but a paediatrician. You should really meet him."

"I met him at the Press Release Ceremony for donations. This guy didn't even look at me. I'm Not sure if he is playing hard to get the game, or he is not interested in me."

"Child care donation?" I interrupted her. I remember Mum requesting to be there since Dad had gone to China. Dad and Mum always volunteer and make donations, especially for Children.

"Yeah, will you let me complete it? He looked so good in those White shirts and Khaki Pants. We both stood together, while the media were taking pictures, he didn't smile." she frowned and instantly smiled when the food arrived.

"I initiated the talk after the photos were taken, but he didn't even utter a word. Even when the chairman introduced me to him, he didn't react much."

"What are you up to?" Jessica asked.

"What?" I questioned her back, since stopped listening to her rant long back, I didn't catch what she said.

"Why did you kiss me back at your office?"

"We meet after a long time, I missed you."

"You missed me? God! You suck at lying." I smiled.

"I wanted to know why you kissed me in front of that girl?" I was debating with myself whether to tell her the truth that Elsa was making me crazy and decided not to.

"Are you trying to make her jealous?" she caught me this time.

"NO! I'm not!"

"Then why did you ask me to contact the receptionist first?" she chuckled and continued.

"I just completed a shoot, I was given an hour to rest. I wanted to check if you are available on Friday, but ended up having lunch with you. Do you want to hear the worst part? I called your Receptionist to check your availability when I didn't have much time. You treated me like I had no job!" she fumed in a low tone.

"Can I say something?"

"Would you stop if I asked you to?" Even if the world crumbled, she would never stop talking.

"She looks lovely and innocent."

"Innocent in my arse." She laughed.

"I never imagined Louis would go crazy for a girl." She laughed her tummy out.

"I'm not crazy about her."

"Well, honey, Tell yourself that. I can see it clearly, she is making you crazy." I just laughed, the check arrived and was paid. She stood up, informing me that her manager was waiting downstairs, and she would be leaving.

I drove back to the office and went directly to my office, without glancing at Elsa's office. I tried to reach Elsa through the Intercom, but there was no answer. Checked her office, but she wasn't there, and checked at the cafeteria. Since it was way past lunchtime. I couldn't find her, but I did see the IT guy flirting with one of his colleagues.

I walked towards him and asked about Elsa, who informed me that she had gone to the nearest restaurant. Once I entered the restaurant, I noticed her and Lorenzo talking more like arguing.

I went straight towards her, grabbed her hand and dragged her back to the office. Once we reached my office, I locked the door behind her.
