Chris POV
"Feelings that come back are the ones that never left ..."
When I saw her entering my office, My entire body froze. I couldn't believe my eyes. the new employee is Elizabeth Hudson. The only Girl I loved and the only girl that broke my heart in the most shameless way. She was standing in front of me looking gorgeous than ever. Her long wavy brown hair and chocolate gazes. Her body looked amazing. I don't deny the hate I have towards her but her presence shocked me as much as her charm; when I recall what she has done, I didn't accept her working in my company. Because it means seeing her every day and giving her a chance to get to what she wanted. But I won't let her, I wanted to take revenge. I wanted her to taste the same feeling. To lose something she loves and wants so bad. I started yelling at her and throwing her away. It's true that I couldn't handle her tears but I controlled myself as much as possible to not be affected by her. She doesn't deserve any kind of mercy and she never did. But when she walked off the office I regret the way I treated her, she is a well-skilled employee. MR Anderson proves that to me. And when someone like him says she is worth the job I shouldn't argue with him. He has more experience than I am. So I thought of putting aside my personal history and think of the company. I called her back to give her the job. She was extremely happy with the news. This job must mean a lot to her. All I have to do now is treat her the way I treat every single employee of this company whether I liked it or not. It will be hard but I can handle myself. I'll let her complete her life peacefully and I'll do the same. I'll pretend like she didn't show up again and she is not the Elizabeth I know.
"Baby you seem lost. Do you have a problem?" Haley Asked with worry filling her green gazes. I smiled shaking my head "Just some work stuff nothing more" She laid her head on my shoulder and uttered " forget about work right now. And rest your head a little " she said quietly as I was looking through the car window. "I'll try baby " I answered holding her hand. Haley is a great person . she is a caring, Lovely, and strong woman who despite her hot body and beautiful figure. She works as a model. I met her at a friend's party. After that, we get to know each other more and get into a relationship. I like her and she does the same. We don't get to spend more time together because of my work and her unlimited flights but we found our way through it all. The car stopped and the driver open the door for us. Finally, we get to my favorite coffee shop. Threes no place quieter than this place. Most of my memories were here, the good and the bad ones. Haley took my hand as we made our way into the shop.
"What would you like to drink sweetheart?" I smiled at her as I remove my sunglasses. "As usual baby" She grinned back.
"Two espressos please " I ordered and went To find a seat.
" I missed you so much. The flight to Paris wasn't that bad, But it would have been better if you were with me" She stared at me with dreamy eyes. "I would love too but you know I have plenty of work. the company depends on me. But soon I will take you somewhere you'll love" I smiled at her and she returned the gesture holding my hand. "
Oh my god! I can't wait for it. It will be so much fun " I come closer to her. " I'll try to plan for it as soon as I can. I don't want my baby to wait any more time ". Before she could answer the servant came with our order. I was looking at her side when I saw someone familiar. I focused a little bit and there was the surprise. Elizabeth is here! How's that? She said she is going to the hotel? She is looking misplaced But why? Is it because she saw me with Haley? No way, she has no feelings for me .how could she be jealous? I get confused for a while but as she went off the restaurant I forget about her and complete my talking with Haley. I don't know what's wrong with her and I don't plan to.
I drop Haley at the hotel. It was midnight and I've spent a great evening with her. She'll have to take the flight tomorrow to NYC, and I won't be able to see her. That's why I decided to spend as much time as I can with her.
As I get to my house, I felt relief. It was a long day and I thought I needed to rest. the first thing I did was taking a hot shower before asking Elena –my servant-to prepare my dinner. I set on the couch completing some work on the laptop when Elizabeth crossed my mind. I wonder where is She? Is she okay? I thought for a while and then decided to call my hotel receptionist. She is a very important employee and because I'm the boss I needed to check on my employees. I convinced myself.
"Hotel Marina Is Here, How can I help you?"
"It's Chris I just want some information about someone" I heard her apologizing about not recognizing my number but then she asked "You want information about who exactly"
"E-Elizabeth, Elizabeth Hudson. She is a new employee in the company. I wanted to know if she came back to the hotel" I said with a monotone voice.
" Yeah, Sir she came back a while now. And she ..." She snapped .
"Melina I need details" I said furiously, her voice was shaking.
"Sir! she was under the weather moreover she looked exhausted as she was carrying her heels and her hair was messy. Sincerely, she looked like she had been kidnapped" Fear grew inside me along with worry "But didn't her driver drop her at the hotel "I asked.
" Yeah, he did Sir. That's what confuses me. Do you want me to ask him or something?" I stood from my place walking back and forth as I run my head through my hair "No don't; Elizabeth is an important person so as long as she is in the hotel, I want to know everything, okay ?"
" Will do sir " I hung up the call and throw the phone on the couch. I get drown in my endless thinking. This girl got me more worried than I should be. Why would I even care? She doesn't deserve all this from Me; "But it's Elizabeth " The unconscious in me spoke. I pass my hands on my face struggling between going to see her and forgetting about her.
