Chapter 16: Cup Of Tea!

Leslie P.O.V.

Phew!!!

So the weekend schedule are all cleared out. Now back to reality.

Damien and I haven't really spoken much yet about this whole company escapade.

He's been extremely busy had a meeting this morning with some foreign investors concerning project X and now he has a luncheon with the embassador of Wong Bin Group. After attending the meeting he also has the shareholders meeting to attend.

What's the irony!

I haven't seen him since I stepped in to work although we spoke on phone last night but still yet I miss him.

A whole lot!

This is crazy.

I was then interrupted in my thoughts by a set of footsteps. The clang of heels so loud one would think a big Hurricane is a about to erupt.

I then looked up and it all came crashing down.

That perfectly arched brows!

That pretty blonde

That sleek look!

That perfect yet cold smile!

That menacing yet cruel but perfect eyes!

That graceful move!

The sound "Bang" blew my mind

Vivian!!!!

Holy Crap!

The bitch with the almighty "You're beneath me kinda look"I exclaimed at the back of my mind.

Fuck this!

Meeting her at the fundraiser made me just dislike her, maybe it's because am a bit jealous of the fact that she knew Damien before me,Or her connection with him.

Clearing my thoughts, I straighten up Putting up my perfect professional smile.

Welcome to Boyce shipping and oil Empire!"I say with a huge smile.

Oh yeah, whatever. I'm here to see my baby"She says with an air of indifference.

Your baby"I say, playing dumb. Knowing that what she means is that Damien is the supposed "Baby".

Oh sweet jeez!

How I would love to whack that smile off that face"I thought trying to control my anger. Although a part of me questions my reason for being so hostile. It's not like we're officially a couple.

I mean we've kissed"I thought witfully, the memory popping up so sweetly.

Agrhhhh

Focus Leslie"I half screamed repeatedly in my mind.

You know what I mean"She says, a new angry color on her face.

Well If you came to see the boss he's currently out right now for an important meeting but if you'd like to wait for him in the office. He's appointment is almost done and am sure he'll be here."I say professionally, with a polite but strained smile on my face.

Oh good, I can wait. That I can do"She says huffing and storming into the office.

Ohhh"That was a close call.

What should I do now?"I thought, as a good secretary I should offer her some plum tea or coffee.

Right I should get her some refreshments"I thought, zooming into the kitchen to prepare some tea.

She seems like those snubby types and they tend to drink lots of teas. Not to stereotype or anything but it's just true.

Taking extra care with every step I made with the hot tea on a tray. I walked gently and carefully into the office.

Heaven please be on my side!

I then smiled, I thought not to leave you parched and brought you some tea while you wait"I say smiling putting the tray down .

Please do call me if you need anything"I say excusing myself politely.

Wait!

You're that girl the other night right?"She says , her voice a little bit different now.

The one at the fundraiser, the new secretary"She asks now smiling so sweetly that it scares the hell out of me.

Yeah that was me"I say a bit skeptical about where this conversation was going.

I don't like your eyes"She suddenly says, her face taking a new dangerous exterior.

My eyes"I say , now confused.

What's wrong with my eyes?"I ask, now fully facing her.

I know the look in your eyes, and the next best advice that I can give is for you to give up on him"She says suddenly

What?

Resign"She says.

Hold up!

I don't get it!"I say a little confused.

He's mine you know!"She suddenly screamed. That sweet yet dangerous but calm angel look is now long gone and now replaced with a crazed look.

You mean Mr Damien"I say now getting what she was trying to say.

Yes!

Am his mistress and fiance"She says approaching me with a menacing look with the cup of steamy tea in her hand

Okay!

Maybe I should have considered the theory that she could have been a phsyco before handing over a cup of hot tea"I thought berating myself on how much of a stupid move I had just made.

Oh boy!

Okay calm down Vivian"I say trying to make my voice a little relaxing, taking a few steps back from her.

Calm down, I can see with one look that you fancy him"She screams

What?

Fancy"I thought, are we like third graders or what. Okay maybe I do like him but with that "Die, Die Die" look on her face. I probably should just keep my mouth shut, my love life doesn't really concern her.

You misunderstanding everything Miss Vivian, Mr Damien will be here shortly"I say trying to step back to get to the door.

You can't have him, never!"She say with anger, then Does just what I didn't want to happen.

She spilled the hot tea all over me, and then all hell broke loose.


Fuck!

I could feel the hot liquid flow on my skin, stinging so I did the next best thing.

I screamed!!

Shaking like a leaf

Just then Damien then comes bursting through.

What the hell is happening here?"He says with such anger and authority.

Darling you're here"I could hear Vivian's whiny voice like a toddler.

OH MY GOD"He exclaims

Leslie you okay"I heard his voice concerned as he rushes to my side in a hurry. Taking me by the shoulder, I could feel the burn on my chest area stinging and a bit painful.

Mr Damien"I say ,a bit tired but yet relived that a third party is here now instead of being in the room with a crazy ass lady. Talking to Vivian only just drained me.

I should have just listened to my hidden voice telling me not to serve her tea.

What happened"He asks

Who did this?"Suddenly realizing I was clutching my chest with a pained look.

Vivian"I murmur.

Jesus Christ!

Okay let's get you up he says, taking a powerful stride and pratically swept me off my feet, lifting me into his arms in bridal style.

Okay is it normal for one to experience pain and intense pleasure and attraction at the Same time"I thought to myself as I felt a jab of pain run through and I then remembered that I had been scalded by hot tea.

Damien"Vivian shrieks, or well I guess she doesn't matter anymore.

Her screams are like music to my ears now!

Oh Crap

Typical Leslie!
