Caroline's POV

I was getting ready for the dinner with Axel . He is a good person . Talking to him was not that bad .

~FLASHBACK~

I was running late for the meeting. I over slept . Even Julie didn't woke me up today.
As soon I reached . I got out and threw my keys to the guard . He greeted me with a smile.
"Ma'am they are here . " He said
"Ok" I replied . And ran towards the meeting room but the heels only made it difficult.

I opened the gate . "Sorry I'm late . I was stuck somewhere." They all turned as I entered the room .
I guess the one sitting at the edge is either Mr Axel or Justin Wilson . I have never met the Wilson brothers. All the partnership work was done by my father. But from this meeting onwards he asked me to handle all the things .
I sat on my place . The meeting started . I was all focused . I could feel the gaze of Mr Wilson on me the whole time . I guess he is testing me . Whenever our eyes met I smiled.

"And with this we end our presentation. So what do you think Ms Hodgson? " One of the Wilson brother  asked .
"I'm fine with this but their are certain changes I want .
1st I want equal share . Their should be 50 50 division .
2nd we should appoint some new head which doesn't belong to either of the group.
And that will be all. " I asked the . Waiting for their answer .
"So Axel what do you think. "  So the one sitting is Axel Wilson and the one giving the presentation is Justin Wilson.
Everyone was looking forward for his answer . He looked at me and smiled.
"I'm really fine with all your changes. If everything is discussed then let's seel the deal." He said
I got up from my seat and extended  my hand . He took it .
Shook it professionally.

"Thank God I reached on time. No alarm , even Julie didn't woke me up." I was talking to Katie .
"Ma'am I tried calling you many time. You didn't picked up ." She said . "I know Katie i lost my phone. I don't even know where I lost it . " I told her .
"Ma'am it's time for paper signing." Mr. Wilson's secretary called me . "I'll be there in a bit." I replied .
We signed off the deal .
"Katie I'll be searching my phone in my office . You manage everything here." I asked Katie's help . "Ok ma'am . " She went away to talk some shareholders.
I left for my office. I asked her secretary for her office .

I was looking everywhere but couldn't find my phone . My whole office was a mess.
There was a knock on the  door .
"Come in " I said  . " Oh Mr Wilson . How can I help you . " I asked shocked by Mr Wilson's presence "You can call me Axel . And right now you need help ." He replied  looking at my place which was a mess.  " Ya Mr Wilson ... I mean Axel . I lost my phone so I was searching but I can't find it anywhere ." I start looking for my phone again .
"By any chance is this your phone." I faced him. He was taking something out from his pocket . "Yes it is . But where did you found it . " I was half surprised and half Happy that finally I found it but was confused . "Yesterday. In the cafe after you left . But you know I had a feeling of finding it's owner today . So I brought with me . " We met yesterday. Ya I went to some cafe with Klo but I didn't met Axel . " Well thank you Axel you saved me . " I thanked me . "Is that your dog ." He asked pointing at my lockscreen. "Yes, it's my dog she is a 2 years Poodle. Her name is Betty " I replied " I too have a dog . His name is chase it's a 8 months Labrador." He showed me a picture . "Ohh he so cute ." Oh god he is so cute  . "Ya really cute " he looked at me when he sid those words or was it my imagination . "Excuse me " I asked him  confused by his words
"I meant the dog ." He cleared my confusion . Come on Caro why would he find you cute. "ohh"
We talked for a while and he helped me clear the mess .
"You know we will be opening a new building together and will be working in the new office together . " He  said " so " I  asked confused . " So we should know each other . So what do you say we have a dinner tonight . " He asked I
"I'm fine with a dinner." I can have a dinner and anyways will be for  business . "Ok then I'll pick you up from your penthouse at 8pm ." He said  . "Ok then at 8pm . I can get ready by then . " I  chuckled. He left my office.

"Wow Caro you look so pretty. Someone's gonna fall for you ." Julie said as I walked down the stairs . "Come on Julie no one gonna fall for me. Beside I don't believe in this love like game . It's all joke . People just betray you . " Tears started forming . " My little girl . He was a bastard . He didn't deserved you . Don't get sad on him . One day you'll find someone who will make you feel special . Who will never leave your side . And will always be there for you, protect you and support you . You just need to start  living  the little moments in life . And forget the old ugly memories. And stop working so damn hard and visit your parents ones . You know how hard it was seeing you dyeing inside. They love you so much . So don't say there's no love . We all love you. " Julie almost cried
"I love you all ." My Tears started falling. "Come-on Caro. Now stop crying he'll be here soon .  It's almost 8 ." Just then the telephone rang. Julie picked up . "Ma'am Mr Wilson here to pick Madam up."
Roger said . "Sent him up." Julie said and hung up . "Go upstairs and fix yourself . I'll welcome him."  Julie pushed me towards the stairs and went towards the lift.

10 min~
I fixed myself and left my room walking down stairs. I saw Axel playing with Betty . Wow . Betty normally doesn't like stranger . She stays away from them .
"Sorry Axel . Making you wait for me ." He faced me and looked at me top to bottom. "You look gorgeous." He said. "Thanks. You look good too .  You met Betty . You know she normally doesn't like strangers. What magic did you use ." I asked him "I think it's my handsome face . Even Betty fell for it . " It's kinda true he has the looks of Greek god . "Yeah sure." I laughed. "What you don't believe?" He asked. "I do believe you. Now shall we leave . I'm really hungary." I cried touching my stomach.  "Lets go ." He forwarded his hand for me . I took it and we walked out .

~in car~
The car ride was damn silent . I was looking outside the whole time .
He broke the silence . "So you wanna listen something ." He asked "ya sure. " I played the radio. It was playing  'Chances' by Backstreet Boys We both sing together .
" You like this song ." He asked
"I love this song . Backstreet Boys is my favourite band. And  after so many years they had their comeback   which was so good ." I said . "They are my favorite band too. Which song do you like the most ?" He asked . "Mmm. I'll go with 'All I Have To Give' ." I said . "And you?"
"As Long As You Love Me  ."  He said looking at me . My heart start to beat so fast . Gosh why does he always have to look like this at me . He smiled . Why god ! why !why does his smile has to be so beautiful. "Are you ok. " He stopped the car . "Your face is getting red . Do you have a fever. " He placed his hands on my forehead. "We can go back if you're not feeling well." He removed his hand . " Yeah I'm totally fine . " I said looking down .
"Are you sure ." He asked . " Yeah yeah . Can we move I'm HUNGRY."
He started the car. And we were off.
