A Moment in Destiny

"Why should I leave?" He raised his eyebrows and refused to leave.

"I… I need to get change!" She said slowly.

"Go on then!" He teased. "I won't stop you!"

Marley's eyes were locked on her long and beautiful neck. The hickey he made were obvious and she could just go out like that! It was his marks, he was claiming her to be his!

"Can you go out?" She said softly and shyly.

Her blushing face and shyness were seductive and irresistible. He approached her again, they were so close that she could feel his breath on her face.

She turned her face aside slowly from his breath but he pressed his lips on hers before letting her go.

"Mr Hughes…"

"What?" He raised his eyebrows.

"Marley!"

"Good girl!" He touched her nose. "Seeing someone after work?"

"Yes!" She nodded.

"To where?" He asked again.

Thinking about Ryan Babel's call, she thought it must be about the three hundred million, but she wasn't sure it was the right thing to do and didn't know if telling Marley would make him angry. He was too proud to ask for a loan, guess he could not accept. So she shook and said, "We haven't decided yet, we would know upon meet up!"

"I see!" He nodded. He saw the dark circle around her eyes thinking that she must have been up all night copying the secretary's code and was exhausted. So he commanded, "Get back to sleep, I'll wake you up on time!"

"It's alright!" She had napped for a few hours.

"Not listening to me again?" He threatened with a low voice. "I'll stay then, get change now!"

"Ah…"

"Continue your rest!" He repeated before he left.

She looked at his back in bewilderment. He said again at the door, "Get back to sleep, do you hear me? I'll punish you if you come out. This is an order!"

"Yes!" She nodded and see him left closing the door behind.

Sylvie was astonished. Her lips were pouted and a hot flush rushed on her face. She touched the lips he kissed and reminiscing her gentleness. How could he did such a thing in the office…

Her face blushed redder, heart race faster thinking about all these as if it was her first time. She sat on the bed for quite a while before she calmed down, change her clothes and arranged the bedsheet quickly.

Marley went back to his office, he stood beside the window and looked at the sky outside silently. Three hundred million! Was it enough for him to build his business? He could only get half the amount even if he sold it!

He lighted a cigarette, his face was buried by the smoke but his frowning eyebrows showed his true emotion.
