CHAPTER 3
Coralline's pov
I walked to the bus station in anger. I sat down and waited for the bus to arrive. I though more about what john said.
Does he think I'm stupid enough to take him back after all he did? If so then he's dreaming. The bus arrived and took me to my destination.
When I got home, I met Sophie. She saw my angry mood and asked me what was wrong. I explained everything to her.
She laughed and said 'so he wants you back after all the humiliation you faced? I think that guy is up to something' I agreed with her. 'Well there's no need to worry because I won't be seeing him again' I said
I remembered the weird guy that stalked me earlier and told Sophie about him. She smiled and asked ' Is he hot?'
Hot? There's no doubt he is with does sexy eyes and well sculptured face. He's really handsome, I thought.
'well I take your silence as a yes. Did you get his name?'
'No, but he looked familiar. But what surprised me was that he called me Charlotte' 'Charlotte….. Maybe he mistook you for someone else' she said
'yeah, you're right'
I remembered the wired guy that stalked me earlier and I told Sophie about it. I looked happy and asked 'is he handsome' I recalled his looks, no doubt he's handsome with those sexy eyes and perfectly structured face. He's really handsome.
'well your silence means he's hot, did you get his name she asked
'No but he looked kinda familiar, like I've seen him before. But what surprised me we as that he called me charlotte'
'Charlotte... maybe he mistook you for someone else'
'Yeah you're right'
'so what is up for dinner? I can smell something nice' I said changing the subject.
'I've always known you are a foodie, go wash up and join me in the dinning. I am cooking pasta' she said smiling.
"ok, mum. I said and went to take my bath.
NEXT DAY
I got ready for work and boarded a taxi there. I entered inside and met everywhere rowdy. I called one of my colleague, Amy and asked what was going on. 'don't you know, we have a new boss'.
'new boss' I thought puzzled
'since when?'
'Yesterday, weren't you at the meeting?' she asked.
'No, I wasn't. I left early. So who is he?' I asked.
'I don't know but I heard he is hot' she giggled and left.
I looked around and saw all the ladies fixing their makeup; some even went as far as opening some buttons to show up their chest I just chuckled and went to my seat.
I haven't even settled in when I heard screams. Amy came to me and said to me that he was here already. most of the workers ran to the entrance to welcome him, I went along with them.
Since I was at the back, I couldn't see him clearly so I waited till he entered inside. when he came closer, I caught a glimpse of his face, those brown eyes. Wait, brown eyes?? I looked closer and recognized him as the stalker. I wanted to hide until I heard 'welcome Mr Damon Gonzales' from my former boss.
I stopped and looked back, he is the Damon Gonzales that everyone has been talking about, the rich business man and he's my stalker? I stood frozen until he turned to look at me.
'Charlotte' he muttered.
Damon's pov
I entered inside the building and heard screams. All the workers came out to greet me but I couldn't spot my Charlotte. I walked closer and I saw her staring at me in shock.
'Charlotte' I muttered. I smiled and went to my new office.
I know you guys guessing why I'm here. Well when I found out she worked here yesterday evening, I decided to buy the firm so I could be close to her. The old boss Mr. Murphy welcomed me after I've settled in and introduced me to my new secretary. She introduced herself as Clara.
I assessed her carefully from head to toe, she looked like one of those hook up girls in clubs begging for a one night stand. She was dressed in tight mini skirt and a transparent top with the two top buttons undone, I could literally see the color of her bra.
she was about to leave when I called her back. She blushed and turned to look at me. Yuck, even her face looked funny.
'If you still like your job, I expect you to dress normally and not like a sl*t.' I said Her smiley face turned glum.
'Also, go get me coralline Scott' 'Ok sir'
Coralline's pov
After all the ruckus, I went to my seat and heard some girls discussing.
'Wow I finally got to see the Damon Gonzales everyone's been talking about. He's so cute' one said
'I'm so happy he's our boss. I'd be able to see him everyday' another said
'I wish I could just have him for one day. I heard he's really good in bed'
'One day? If I could just have his baby, I'll pin him down with it , then get married to him' The other one stated and they giggled.
I decided to tone them off and focus on my work. Clara, my worst enemy came to me with a frown on her face and said 'Mr. Gonzales is asking for you'
'Is there a problem?' I asked 'How am I supposed to know?' she hissed and left.
I just rolled my eyes and went to his office. I knocked on the door.
'Come in' I heard and entered the office.
'We meet again.' He said
I just stared at him in admiration. How can someone be this perfect but those mesmerizing eyes that looks like he's staring deep into my soul and those red plump lips. God I felt like biting them.
'Like what you see?' He asked smirking.
I felt the heat rise on my face and coughed awkwardly.
'You called for me sir' I said
'Yes have a seat' I sat down on the seat opposite his desk.
'Coralline Scott, right?' he asked 'Damn, even my name sounds sexy in his mouth ' I thought inwardly.
'Did you hear what I've just said?' He asked
'Huh??'
'I just said that I want you to be my plus one at the engagement party of the Humphrey's only son because we've been invited.' He said
Humphrey?? Isn't that John's surname?? So he's really getting married to Vivian?
'Sir, what about your secretary? Isn't she the one that's supposed to be your date?, I asked
'I've chosen you already so you have to prepare because it's coming up next week Saturday' He said
'But……'
'No buts, I've made my decision already. You can leave'
I stood up and left.
