Chapter 23
I walk out of the elevator into my floor, feeling like I'm not really there and that my body is just a ghost but regardless of how I feel, I keep my head up to show confidence. As I look towards my office, I realize that Malik is waiting right in front with his back to me. I stop immediately and back away just as Britney notices me.
"Good morn-", she starts as I motion for her to be quiet so he won't see me since I don't really feel like talking to him right now especially after what happened yesterday but my gaze turns to him as he starts turning around.
I turn around quickly and walk off, hoping that he didn't notice me.
"Morning", he says right next to me suddenly and I stop walking, silently cursing Britney. When I turn to look at him, he stares down at me with a small grin on his face that I just want to erase.
"Morning", I finally reply turning around and heading the other way to my office since there's no use in hiding now.
"You were going to hide", he comments following me.
"What? No, of course not. I realized I forgot to stop by the fashion department to check something", I answer which isn't a lie, according to Elvis my approval is needed for something.
"Hmm, okay. I'll believe you", he says as I walk inside my office and he just follows me right in. As I walk to my desk, I hear him close the door softly. I look over my shoulder before putting my purse away and take a seat. He then takes a seat across from me, making himself right at home.
"Not trying to be rude but what are you doing here?", I ask him bluntly and openly. Neither of us cared about what happened yesterday, things have being "talked" through.
"Business", he responds with a smirk and I find myself out of breath for a couple seconds. His smirk can still make me feel something. I pull myself together and silently wonder why I have a feeling business means more than just that.
"Business", I repeat after a couple seconds and he nods.
"That's right. You want the property. So, I'm asking for-", he starts but I interrupt him.
"I already told you, I'm not interested in your offer", I tell him shaking my head at him.
"No, listen to me. I only want $50,000", he says to me and I stare at him, confused.
"You-Your offer was of $250,000 and now you are selling it for that? That is way below the property's worth. I'm sorry, that's a great offer but... Why? Why did you change your mind?", I ask him curiously.
He stares at me and bites his bottom lip, in deep thought.
"I have some conditions", he finally says still staring at me.

Fanfiction"Damn, you're so boring", he says as smoke from his cigarette rolls out of his mouth in swirls. "I don't need drugs to live, considering they do the opposite", I counter, trailing off a little due to how mesmerizing the smoke and his lips were. "Who...
