"Speak up" Travis urged, his eyes staring back into hers only. He hoped she would say what he wanted to hear.
Annie knew it was better to keep quiet and not remind him that she was the girl he kissed at the restaurant.
"Come on, speak up" his masculine voice vibrated in her ears. It was a ragged command. He approached her slowly.
"You're almost naked!" She shouted, her eyes glued to the tattoo on his right arm. His tattoo was beautiful.
Travis scoffed. He knew he was no where close to nakedness, he had on his joggers and he was shirtless and that's because he just left the gym. "I will be right back. I will go get my shirt" he glanced at her once and left.
Immediately he left, Annie slammed her forehead, wondering what she has really gotten herself into.
"Why him? Oh god!" She muttered, close to tears because she knows she knew she was into real trouble. She only hope he doesn't remember her.
"Rose? Which Rose?" Annie asked innocently."I see" Travis replied and walked out if the elevator.* * * * * * ** * * * * * ** * * * * * ** * * * * * *"Travis why did you change the models?" Shirley asked but Travis eyes was elsewhere. She traced his eyes and it turned out he was staring at Annie whose office was opposite to his. He was staring at her through the transparent demarcation.Shirley didn't know what to say or feel at that moment, she could only sheath inwardly."How.....is your new assistant doing?" She asked, anger in her mind.Travis looked away immediately. "Annie? I don't know. She is new. She just starred" he replied absent mindedly.Shirley let out a smile. "Where did she work before?""You will have to ask Luke. You know he is the one that hired Annie fir me and he is the one in charge of personnel" Travis replied."I know sweetie" she replied."Hmm Tr
Annie woke up in the middle of the night to the sound of her beeping phone. She has missed lots of messages from Mrs Santiago."You didn't call""Why aren't you answering my calls?""What happened?""I want to know everything""I'm coming over""Come downstairs, I'm waiting"Annie frowned at the missed messages. The woman wants her to come out so late at night."Now I'm in trouble" Annie muttered, jumping out of the bed at the same time. She quickly fit her legs into her flip flop and rush out if her apartment to the street. She was quick to see Mrs Lila's car packed at a distant from her apartment."Evening ma'am" Annie greeted, rushing towards her."Come here, hurry up" Lila ordered her, authoritatively."Tell me, what happened at the office? What did he do? I hope you didn't ruin it? Did he say anything about your new ringtone? Dud you tell him it's rose of Seville, go on tell
"I hate squash.....I hate you" he whispered and that was the final straw..He moved away from her in a swift, she also quickly went to grab her back and pretended as if nothing happened, she pretends she didn't hear the words he said to her.The both approached the door at the same time. She stopped at the door, backing it in other to face him. Even though he kept pushing her away, she still wants to try push it once more."I wanted to ask you something." She bit her lower lip."And that is?," Travis furrowed his brows."I have to ask you, we've met before. It might be a coincidence. Do you remember that we've met before?" She asked."When and where?," Travis asked, flatly.Annie went dumb. Since he doesn't remember, why then does she needs to remind him. Even if he knows, nothing is gonna change between them. He only kissed her to get away from another woman. He wanted a trick at that moment and she was th
He placed her foot gently on his leg. "Bring me the first aid kit" he ordered. He opened his bottled water and used it to wash her foot carefully. Annie was surprised that the grumpy CEO could be so caring. "I'm very sorry, Sir. I didn't mean it. It was an accident. I tripped and knock the model into the water by accident" Annie said, pleadingly. "Bring me the first aid kit or do I have to keep yelling" Travis said, it was a ragged command. "Do you see what he is doing? His assistant is getting all his attention while he is ignoring me. A little fall won't kill her. What's up with that?" Shirley said, really pained. "What do you want him to do? Ignore her? Just relax" Luke replied. Shirley hissed and walked away. One of the staff brought the first aid kit. Travis collected it and dropped it on the nearby stand. "When I talk to you and you don't answer, I feel e
Travis was having fun playing basket ball with like in the basketball court in his mansion. His mascular body was sweaty, his muscle relax and expand in the most perfect style."You're good at this" Luke commented."Listen, Luke" Travis said while going after the ball."I'm getting nervous" he whispered, his breathing heavy."Why are you nervous?" Luke asked, looking for the perfect opportunity to grab the ball from him"I am worried that our brand is losing value" Travis replied and threw the ball into the net."Travis you know our brand is world class, just relax okay, we are on this together" Luke quickly grab the ball from him and threw it into the net."Brother would you like to tell me?""Tell you what?" Travis asked, beads of sweat dripping from his forehead. He hijacked the ball from Luke. "Don't act like you don't know. You allowed Annie to sit on your lap!" Luke shouted."She couldn't step on her foot, what else co
Shirley was busy with work on her desk when her phone beeped. It was a call from Ran Yu. She picked the call without a second thought."Hello""I know""I'm fine, thanks and you""Yes of course I considered it but I don't think I can do it. Don't get me wrong. I just don't have the heart to do it. If I do it, it will be the end of Travis. Understand?" Shirley said and hang up the call immediately she felt the presence of someone at the door."Private call?" Luke asked, pushing his way in through the transparent door."Mmm mmmmm" Shirley nodded, she really hope he didn't hear a thing from her conversation."Sorry" Luke said."Uhh...no, it was nothing personal. We are done talking. Everything is fine" Shirley said."Mmmm who was it?" Luke asked, looking very curious."Just a phone call" Shirley replied, trying to overcome her fear."Come on who was it?" Luke pressed on."Hmmm you want to know everything, you nosy pa
Annie stole secret glances at Travis through the transparent demarcation, she felt so bad for upsetting him. She looked away immediately the moment he swiveled his head.That was so close, he almost caught her staring at him. Annie's thoughts was interrupted by a knock on the door, it was Luke."Annie, I have to go out but I want to see Travis, is he available?" He asked."Yes, you can go in" she replied lowly."And now, you dint look well. Is something bothering you?" He asked, pulling out a seat to sit."I really messed up today. Travis is very upset with me" she told, feeling really bad."I know....""You know you're like a legend around here. You can accomplish anything. Just stay calm. You're a smart girl. Why do you worry too much? Relax, it's not necessary" he flattered her."Me? Smart?" She asked."Yes, and a bit crazy" he replied with a charming smile that made her
He wasn't sure of what to feel, he could only watch them closely and he saw how free she was laughing at Luke in the cool night breeze."Here you go" Luke handed her the menu."Thanks" she replied and ordered."Go ahead, are you able to walk in that? Let's sit over there" he pointed out and pulled out a chair like a gentleman. Travis scoffed from where he sat watching."Fish instead of meat was a good idea, wasn't it?" Luke questioned."Hmm it's omega. Nothing is wrong with omega, I love the fish so much" Annie told."Whoa that's Travis" Luke smiled."You're mocking Travis, do it again" he said.Annie laughed and stood, her midnight black hair flowed with the rhythm of the cool breeze.She cleared her throat and started. "Alright then... Look first click on A3 and F5 to get the hard copy and then you send it to Linda okay" she mimicked Travis and they both laughed afterwards."Don't tell anyone" Annie smiled and went over to
