Chapter 43 SECRET REVEALED
- Kiara POV
- I could feel my heart gladden as I fled from his grasp, laughing wholeheartedly at the dejected look on his face, but he quickly replaced it with a sneer, a deep sneer embedded at every corner of his lips as he said, “What a hard game, sweetheart. I'll make sure you beg for it later” He said jokingly, I just laughed the more, planting my ass on my seat. As soon as I sat down, my cellphone vibrated on the desk. I hesitantly snatched it, then unlocked it. Gazing at the screen in silence, but my hand had curled up to a fist as the resentment I felt two days ago overwhelmed me again. What the hell is he doing here? Gnashing my teeth in annoyance, I sprang to my feet then scooted out of my desk. Alexander also got on his feet, staring at me with whole attention. “Is there a problem?” He asked apprehensively, “Nicholas, he's here at the reception, and he had requested to see me” I answered, not willing to hide how discontented I've become. His face suddenly tensed up, but he was trying to control it.
- “Haven't you talked things out with him?” He asked calmly, I shook her head, “No, I've not been able to reach him. Can I go see him for a minute?” I requested, sounding impatient. “Do you want me to come with you?” He asked tenderly, walking up to my figure. I quickly shook my head, “I won't stay long, I'll be back shortly” I scrambled my words, and after offering a soft smile to him, I left the office in a hurry. On getting outside the office, I almost smashed Felicia, she was standing before the door. She quickly went back to her seat, looking quite embarrassed. I glanced over at the door then back to her face, “What were you doing just now, Miss Felicia?” My voice was a bit harsh, she rolled her eyeballs then jibed, “What does it look like, Miss Kiara?” I scoffed then went to stand in front of her desk, “You were eavesdropping? Tell me, what if the CEO had caught you himself, what will you do then?” I scowled, and much to my surprise, she jumped to her feet then glowered, “How about we cut past this bullshit, Miss Kiara. Tell me, what's really going on between you and the CEO? Rumors are going around the office since morning that the CEO had brought a bouquet of flowers for you, is that true?” Her eyes gleamed, yearning for answers.
