Her Request

Chapter Seven

Chapter 7
April

My phone buzzed as i finished the last paperwork on my desk.

It's a group text from the girls indicating i have four more hours to get to the tarmac. I'm done With Magazine related work and I've got no show to anchor today so I'll make it to the private jet in no time.

"This is the issue for this week's publication" Corrine hands me a copy of the Magazine.

Of course, Cavanaugh didn't rule out Zendaya's article. I sigh into my palm in disgust but i won't let this ruin the beginning of my funfilled trip with the girls. Besides, i took two weeks leave so i have fourteen days to not think about work. Fourteen days to have fun and be there for Vanessa's wedding.

Corrine, of course, would have to mail things that needed my attention but she is capable of tending to the  trivial things.

"Its fine Corrine, book me an Uber in thirty minutes"

"Ok Ms. April"

I vaguely look at the Magazine issue again and made a loud thud when i aggressively drop it on my desk. Even the mail i sent to the CEO regarding the issue has not been acknowledged.

So much for the No fraternization policy.

I've already packed up for the trip, i just have to pick up King Lee at my mum's then head home to pick my box and have a shower before heading to the airport.

A buzz from my phone distracted me from my thought.

It's a text from Scum which after a few seconds made me realize it was from JC.

'I'm still waiting for your bill. Hate to ruin your Car too. The only thing I want to ruin is your panties.

JC'

First, he seemed cool on our first encounter, second, he went Greek God on me at the parking lot, third he was nice on the rooftop, forth he was arrogant and rude on the express and now he's flirting!

I vaguely bit my lower lip cause as much as I find his last words infuriating, it made me have a quick image of him actually ruining my panties. Hot as hell.

Snap out of it April, I shrugged my head hoping it would put a halt to this sexual fantasy of mine with a certified hot looking fuckboy.

I was packing up my stuff when Corrine came in to inform me of the cab man's arrival.

She carried some files behind me seeing the fact that I've got a handful of my bag and laptop.

We emerged from the building's main entrance but a car fitting the description of the Uber was nowhere to be seen.

"Are you sure he's parked here, Corrine?'

" yes I am, he called to say... He's calling me... Where are you parked?.... Okay," she hangs up.

"He was told to park by the corner" she points to Eastern Avenue.

This is why I love bringing my car but it broke down this morning and I didn't have enough time to take it to the mechanic because I have to finish up work early and make the time for travel. I'll just call my mum to handle it while I'm gone.

We began to walk to the opposite side when a quick turn back made me sight JC walking out of the building and a group of journalists suddenly surrounded him.

He's popular?

"Didn't know we had a celebrity in the building" I glare at him.

The environment was so noisy and filled with car horns and chatters but yet, I was fully concentrated on him like he was the only one there.
