VERONICA

chapter 23

So after that uncomfortable dinner ruggero and I haven't seen each other nor had sex, and even though I missed his touch I'm still mad at him.

It's finally Friday and like I said I must go to the cottage, like it's a must and I still don't get why I agreed.

maybe I was so lost in his kisses that my mind wasn't functioning correct.

I'm currently in our company, Thea called me to inform me about some new client that want to invest in the company and the need both signs to close the deal so I have to be present.

Thea never told me who this new client was, well I never really asked though, when I arrived to the meeting I was 1 minute early, everyone was already seated when my sister entered Bryce.

I should have asked Anna to know.

"Any questions anybody ?" Thea asked at the end of the meeting.

Everyone nods their head No so she waved her hand dismissing everyone while I stayed back.

I stood up as thea was done talking to Bryce and walked close and smile at me.

"I don't know what you did and I really don't care knowing you, I really have to praise you this time"

"And why is that?" I raised an eyebrow whilst folding my arms in confusing. Normally she is the one to get praise in this stuff, I do well but she does better.

"well judging by the stares you guys had and the way he's company is suddenly interested in ours .... I have to say that for ones you did a great for the company" she stated.

"Thank you for the compliment" I smile at her.

"Please chew well that ego, don't let it get you choke" she said sarcastically walking out of the room.

I walked back to my office, I walked towards the table and sat on it while I go through some files.

I hear a knock and realized I'm still seated on the desk table and mutter a quick come in to the person behind the door to reveal my PA Paris.

"Ms. Brown, these are the files you asked for" she informs placing the file on my desk, I took the file and started going through every detail when I noticed her still standing there so I looked up and raised an eyebrow.

"What are you still doing there doing nothing" I asked icily. " Go and do something useful" I ordered.

After a some seconds, halfway through one of the file I hear a knock again and I groan in annoyance.

This are some of the reasons I don't come here much, I told her not to disturb me.

"Come in " I said slightly annoyed, without paying attention to her. She came in and walked till my table and cleared his throat.

"You got 3 minutes so speak" I said still busy scrolling through my phone facing the window.

"3 minutes is too short"

Wait a second, that's not paris, Paris for sure doesn't have a deep voice .

I wheel my chair and look up to see Bryce staring at me.

"Please take a seat Mr Moore" I smirked gesturing him to take a seat. He sat down looking at me intensively.

"I never imagined you as a businesswoman " he said.

"I never thought you would actually become associated with my company"

"Well ... it benefits both our company I get bring more client and you get more commission"
