Falling For The Man I Married

Chapter 22: Future Mrs. Wilsons

"Hey, you! You left me hanging on your story!" 

Sandy's booming voice bounced around the four corners of my office. I left my focus on the monitor to look at her.

Although we're both disappointed in a different situation, I still need to compose myself not to show her how upset I am.

"It's not my fault, you know!"

"Hmph!" she rolled her eyes and sat on the chair in front of my desk. "So, what happened to your lunch meeting?" 

"Well, it's fine. They just talked about business and the project." I shrugged avoiding her gaze. I don't want her to suspect that I'm just lying. The disappointment I have for now is something I just want to keep to myself.

"I see. By the way, why are you here so early, where's Mr Wilsons?"

"I left him at the restaurant," I answered casually.

"You left him, but why?"

"Uhm.. he still busy, so I just took a cab back here, besides they don't need me there."

"So, why did he take you?"

"I don't know, maybe to listen to some important details. Ahm... Sandy, do you remember Jamie, my flatmate?" I asked to change the subject. I don't know how long it can take me not to look her in the eye.

"Yeah. The bank manager, right?"

"Uhuh. She's about to move out, I'm not sure if tomorrow or the next day. Uhm.. do you want to share an apartment with me?"

"Oh, sure, why not? That's great! Just inform me when I have to get all my stuff. Yay! This is so exciting!"

"Ms Davis!"

We both snapped to where the mad and cold voice coming from. And there he stood, Mr Gabriel Wilsons himself wearing his signature demeanour... cold, rude and arrogant. His eyes were fixed on me. And we never got a chance to greet him when he spoke again.

"In my office, now!"

And without any second, he disappeared from our sight.

"What happened to him, Madi? His nostrils were flaring!" Sandy's question, her eyes were wide as saucers.

Actually, I already knew the reason, but I just shrugged my shoulders.

"I don't know. You know your boss is kinda bipolar, so don't be amazed." I cleaned up some mess on my table.

"Aren't you afraid of him?"

I looked at her and smiled. "Why would I? He's not a monster, he won't eat me alive and he won't even bite."

"Oh yeah, because he's now your boyfr-----"
