CHAPTER XVII: What is wrong when playing along?

"Who is back?"

My head snapped towards the source of voice and my eyes widened.

Sh*t! I forgot he is in the same room!

"No one." I answered very much quickly to my liking, squirming on the bed feeling uncomfortable at his ocean eyes.

He stared at me, making an eye contact contest on who is going to break the eye contact, but he was determined not to look away first. I was certain that he knew I was trying to hide something from the moment where he pinned me to the wall last night to asked about that box but I am not going to bow down to him and tell him what was wrong because, first, he is my boss. Second, he is a stranger to me and lastly I still do not know anything about him besides being an owner of a different company branches.

He could be a serial killer for all I know.

I averted my eyes, breaking our eye contact as it is not making me more comfortable. Even his stare screamed power, I could not defeat that as I am a weakling.

I just contorted my lips into an awkward, toothy smile, my cheeks were not so compromising but enough to fool him that no one's back.

"Whatever," I released a sigh of relief the moment he finally averted his gaze and walk out of the room, slamming the door shut with so much force that the *bang* sound echoed throughout the whole room making my ear hurt at the sudden action.

"Damn, he is pissed." I turn to look at my amused sister staring at the now closed door that Mr. Schulz had exited his way out of this room.

"Shut up. You still owe me an explanation." I deadpanned.

"What!? I already did explained to you", her hands folded into her chest as she looked at me with her 'duh" look.

"Oh? You did? But that still does not answer my question! Why did you not tell me you knew him!?" I yelled.

"Because you never asked before! Hell, I did not even know you worked for him." She replied, now completely facing me.

I sighed, my head started to ache at the event that had occured to me these past few days. I have not been here for so long and all of this already happened to me?

"You should take a rest, you are still burning with fire. Damn, you rarely get sick and when you are, it is in a high temperature." She stands up and reached over to my side, pulling the blanket over my body after she had helped me to lay down.

I layed down on the bed and snuggle more closer to the sheets, feeling the coldness that I had not felt earlier. The rain really got to my body and making me sick, that explained why my body felt numb.

Closing my eyes, I turned to my side and curled up into a ball to snuggle into the blanket and let the sleep consume me.

One thing stuck to my mind before completely letting the sleep to take over my body,

How did they find me?

****
Buzz buzz buzz

I groaned as I woke up to the loud noises echoing into my room and rolled over to reach over at the night stand to stop the thing that is making too much noise early in the morning. Once I got a hold of it, I immediately got familiarized to its rectangular shape.

Its my phone!

Once I picked it up, I turned it on to check what time it is. My eyes bulged out from its socket as I looked at the big numbers facing in front mocking at me.

6:45 A.M

I hopped out of the bed and hurry to the bathroom. I did whatever business I need to do inside the bathroom within just ten minutes, trying my best to look presentable. My hair is not tangles but it is frizzy as I started combing it, looking at the mirror, my eyes have huge bags underneath them.

My clothes are all over the room as I rushed to put on my black pencil skirt and a white button up shirt, putting on my black pumps and grabbed my zipper tote bag and left the house.

During the ride, I quickly put on some makeup trying my best to cover the dark circles forming under my eyes and dabbed a little red lipstick on my lips, leaving my brunette locks down towards my shoulder.

Passing through the revolving doors of the building, I went inside the elevator. I checked my watch and it was exactly at twenty past seven. Which means I still have ten minutes left to grab everything I need, which includes Mr. Schulz's coffee.

I hate Mondays very much but I cannot delay my duties any longer. Three days is an enough rest for me yet I still cannot overpass the actions of my boss that evening. It stuck in my head as to why he was acting like that.

I cannot believe he let me stayed over for three days at his suite with his house maids'. But of course, he did not stayed a night there.

The ping sound of the elevator brought me out of short reverie. I stepped out of the elevator and dashing my way towards the coffee machine to make two coffees before walking over towards his office.

I knocked on the big double doors three times before entering his spacious office.

I walked towards his table and put the coffee mug at the empty side. He looked up for a millesecond and averted his gaze back to his laptop.

Straightening myself up and take a step to walk out of his office when suddenly he called me.

"Yes, sir?" I said turning back to face him. I wonder why he is pretending like nothing happened three days ago.

That is weird.

"What is my schedule today?" He asked in a curt voice which caused me to frown. If he is ignoring the fact that he let me stayed at his suite and pinned me in the wall at my apartment, then I will do the same.

What is wrong when playing along? It is so much easy to do it seeing that we knew each other professionally as a boss and an employee.

"There is an executive board meeting about the new company building in eight o'clock." I replied with my professional monotone voice.

He nodded then close his laptop and stands up before looking at me, "Gather all of the board directors. I want them inside the meeting room in five minutes."

My eyes widened, "but Mr. Schulz! We still have twenty-five minutes until the said meeting time."

"I am the boss here. My company, my rules. Now, tell them that the meeting has been rescheduled." He said in a coolly detached expression making his way towards the door that is attached to his side wall and began undoing his button up shirt.

"Yes, sir. I will notify them right away." I averted my gaze from him and turn my way towards the door.

Must he take off his shirt in front of me!? That was rude!

I stride out of his office and went to mine and started dialing all of the directors' office telephone one by one and also emailed them just in case.

How am I suppose to gather all of them in five minutes?

I heaved a sigh and started making my way towards the meeting room not before gathering all the print outs of the details of today's meeting.

When I entered the room, I was surprised to see all of the board directors all seated and gathered talking in a hush tone.

" Why did he suddenly make the meeting earlier than the agreed time?"

"Isn't he going too far to make a sudden announcement?"

"What if we were busy?"

"My lifespan is going to get shortened if he is going to do this all the time."

"Ahem!"
