Chapter Thirty-Eight - Being Named As A Model.

-----

GRACE'S POV

It had been a week since my last hypertension attack, that means a whole week since I and Alex had 'the talk'. Living with him has been better ever since. He's been a nice guy and treated me...well, differently.

"Dory!" I greeted loudly and she looked very happy and hugged me tightly. I hugged her as well.

"You finally got a daughter for me!" She yelled and I couldn't stop but laugh along with her.

"Browny's home, too!" I said at the little dog who came up to me and I almost stumbled if not that I was kneeling on the ground for him. He barked happily.

Browny went somewhere in the back and kept roaming. Alex and Dory greeted each other and talked about all the stuff.

"So, how is Ben? And Lilac?" Alex asked. Dory's face fell a little.

"Well, he had to go back to the army. Also, Lilac is pregnant now. Can't believe she grew up so fast." She had small tears in her eyes.

"Wow... you're gonna be a grandmother." She nodded happily.

"That doesn't mean that you guys are allowed to take an off, get yourselves up and off to get ready. I'll prepare some breakfast." Dory said in a strict tone and we both chuckled.

We wished Dory a goodbye and left for office. I was checking up our schedule for the day and I almost found it empty. My forehead scrunched in confusion.

"Are we having a free day, why?" I asked him and the elevator opened. He nodded at everyone and we both walked straight to his office. He sat on his chair and looked up at me.

"Actually we're going out on a personal task. I need you to accompany me. So, only a meeting in the morning and we shall be done for the day." I nodded and I put it on my phone. Operating this new iPhone was a task which he gave me a week ago. Talk about sugaring.

"Well, meeting with Mr.Panashiyawat will begin in an hour. I'll come and nudge you over." He nodded and I went back to my cabin and arranged up all the things.

"What is it?!" I almost yelled looking at the caller ID. I put him on speaker as I kept on typing the monthly sheet.

"I thought you'd miss your best friend." He groaned on the other line.

"Not when he ditched me for so long. I am being the understanding one, but damn you getting lost leaving me in heaps of work!" I scolded him and he just laughed.

"You know I love you, right?" He asked in a cute tone trying to get me to talk to him nicely.

"And I hate you! Give the phone to her, she must be pissed after you said your 'I love you's to me." Martin put Elle on the phone.

"Even I don't get such cute 'I love you's, Grace." She made a small face. I chuckled at her kiddish behavior.

"Elle, I really haven't talked to you guys for a long while now, but I hope your guys are good. Also, please hand him the phone before you guys make out, after the face you just gave him." I said and she laughed and put him on the phone.

"What am I supposed to get for her?!" I yelled at him and I knew he forgot again.

"Damn! I mean...I remember." He said and we both laughed.
