FROM DARE TO LOVE (Editing)✔

CHAPTER 28

I shake my head. God, Aleesa! What are you doing? Get a hold on yourself. He takes out an envelope from his coat pocket

'May I?' he asks gesturing towards a chair opposite me, I mentally smack my forehead. Where are my manners? I didn't even ask him to take his seat. I nod my head and he takes his seat. He forwards me the envelope

'Your pay check' he says. I take it. He adjusts his coat and looks around

'Nice place' he says. I frown, I know very well he is taunting me. He then coolly adds that I should get an even better place and being CEO of a successful real estate agency he can get me that. Show off!

'Anil, our photographer has send the pictures he had clicked. I will send them to you...you can select...'I say to change the topic. But that turned out to my worst idea when he says 'Show me now...I don't have time later'

I gulped and nod. I should have said no, then why didn't I. I was about to turn the PC towards him but he stands.

My breath getting caught in my throat and my heart beat increasing inside my chest as he walks around the table and comes to my side. Oh, God! my heart is in my mouth, as he stands inches away from me.

'Where are the photos?' he asks

My palm begins to sweat as I place it over the mouse and open the tab that I had minimized. Shit! It was zoomed photo of his face. I quickly closed the tab, damn! I sense him smirk behind me. I felt like an idiot.

I opened the folder which contained all the photos, there are so many, about thousand pictures and among them only the bests, which would hardly be some 20s or 30s. My heart is beating rapidly as he leans forward to see a photo more closely. I tilt my head little and find his face inches apart from mine. Gosh! I get a whiff of his manly cologne and I find myself floating in air. I pressed my thighs tightly, having him so close is making me feel funny.

'Get...chair....'I stammer gesturing towards the chair, there are so many photos I don't want him to stand all the awhile lest he decides to leave.

'It's okay.' He says simply. I nod.

Five minute later, 'Wait, go back' he says and then reflexively places his palm over mine which is resting on the mouse. I shiver.

He quickly moves his palm off mine, I move mine too. He stands up straight

'Mail Liqa the rest and yes...you are hired for the wedding.' He says and before I could say anything he leaves, he seemed to be in hurry. What happened all of sudden, that he rushed? Perhaps he remembered some urgent work.

And he just left like that, if I am hired shouldn't he discuss with me about the wedding, my payment and other details?
