𝐃𝐚𝐝𝐝𝐲'𝐬 𝐎𝐛𝐬𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 2: 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧

I knew it was only a matter of time before Kyle finished his meeting and started looking for me; I should've left a note. I hope my sudden departure wasn't rude.

On the other hand, the character Victor Howard appears quite intimidating, and I can sense that he has suddenly taken a significant interest in me... Uh oh, should I be excited or worried?

"Y-Your V-V-" I stuttered realizing who he was

Victor smirked, standing about ten inches away, as he gazed down at me. He possessed the looks men would envy, the kind that likely had models flocking around his polished shoes.

"Yes, you are correct and I must say for being Zach's daughter you sure are a pretty one" I must admit, his voice seemed quite appealing, but I knew I shouldn't entertain such thoughts. After all, I am in a committed relationship.

I even blushed feeling so small compared to him "Thank you, Mr. Howard"

He chuckled, slipping a hand inside his black suit jacket, which slightly revealed his dress shirt., my gaze fell on his bulging muscles underneath the expensive white fabric,

God Im such an eye-raping whore... Misty would be proud.

I need to stop! He's already noticed, which is why his smirk hasn't left his face, and I'm so embarrassed...

"Please, call me Victor now tell me why you are wandering alone in my building?" He asked leaning against the table and waiting for my answer patiently.

I gulped "I n..needed the bathroom but I got lost which is why I've wandered in here... I-Im sorry if I came into a restricted area" I rubbed my arm nervously.

Victor amusingly stared at me "You are fine... Can't get in trouble if I'm here" Smugly saying

He sounds very sure of himself... I like it

"Mae!?"

My sharp gasp broke the silence as Kyle's voice interrupted my thoughts. Victor turned slightly as Kyle entered the room quickly, casting a glance at us before moving further inside. An unmistakable glare of displeasure crossed his face at the sight before him.

What's his problem?

Then Victor stood "Kyle? What are you doing here? I'm sure the meeting is still in session" He said confused

Kyle coldly looked at him "It wrapped up early, The investors agreed to the terms" His gaze turned to me and I smiled awkwardly at him.

"I needed the bathroom and got lost," I say shrugging my shoulders. Victor started glancing between us with an arched brow.

"You two know each other?" Victor inquired, but I noticed a mischievous gleam in his eye. Before I could say anything, Kyle spoke up and marched to my figure.

"She's my girl, Victor. But now that you are here I'm sure you can handle the post-notes of the meeting" Kyle positions me protectively behind him, catching me off guard.

What the?? Girl?! Has he gone mad?

I saw a bigger smirk play on Victor's lips "Is that so? I didn't think Kyle Wilson had any girlfriends especially beautiful ones"

Victor thinks I'm beautiful? Why does it make me feel so bubbly inside? I pushed those thoughts aside, despising the fact that I was harboring such feelings while I was with Jake.

"That's just it, Victor. We're just business partners, not friends" Kyle retorted, grabbed my arm, and started to leave the room hastily. Ugh!

"Nice meeting you, Mae. I hope to see you again" Victor hollared and Kyle yanked us from the room before I could reply. We entered the elevators then I snatched my arm back from his grip giving him a snarling lip.

"What is your problem?" I asked in anger. The doors close, and Kyle gazes forward, feeling his jaw tense then he looks at me.

"Victor Howard is a gigantic asshole, Mae, and seeing you falling for his act was quite pathetic. He doesn't care for anybody but himself" He scowls

"Excuse me? I wasn't falling for anything! In case you forgot I'm in a committed relationship and you had no right claiming I was your 'girl' back there-"

"I was protecting you from him!" He glared.

I scoffed "I don't need you protecting me! especially from Victor Howard"

The doors opened and I wasted no time storming out hearing Kyle chase after me, He then grabbed my arm pulling me back.

"I am your ride, Mae. I will take you home"

I hardened my jaw pulling my arm back "I think we shouldn't talk or see each other anymore, Kyle. I appreciate what you've done for me but this is for the best and don't worry I have my boyfriend who will pick me up"

Without further ado, I stepped back and began leaving the building while others looked at our heated discussion. I was indifferent to their stares because I had no intention of returning - I didn't belong here anyway.

Thankfully, Kyle stayed put and let me leave. I didn't want to look back; I could already feel his glare burning into my skin and had no desire to intensify it.

Kyle had no right to talk to or handle me that way and it ultimately proves how odd he truly is, I decided to call car service to take me home once I was far enough from the building.

I did finally receive a text from Jake and he informed me his parents returned and they wanted to spend time together as a family after so long. I couldn't argue with that, at least he's safe and okay.

Jake said he would let me know when he's free so we can finally spend our time together, I sighed knowing I was going to be alone for a while, and deep down it's making me depressed.

Mom's gone to work, Jake's with family, Misty's with family, Delia's busy with work and family, and Aunt Brooke has her own family an hour away. 

Damn! 

I groaned out loudly fed up with this, Is this how it's going to be all month?! Me alone and with these problems? I hope Kyle will eventually leave me alone and won't pop up and respect my wishes.

Then an idea popped into my head, I could visit my grandparents! It's been a while since we saw one another and I do miss them and fill the temporary void in my life but first I need to call Mom.

So I pulled out my phone dialing her number but sadly it went to voicemail after the sixth ring! Ugh!

Then it's set, I'll visit my grandparents and be free from the creepy, peculiar aura called Kyle Wilson and escape this bad luck.

"Maybe nothing else will go wrong" I speak to myself continuing to wait for my ride.
