Chapter 19"Hi, Secretary Gillian, Are you having lunch?" I couldn't walk into the elevator when I heard my name. I turned to look at that person.My eyes narrowed, and I remembered who she was. I quickly smiled when I remembered who she was. She was the one who stopped me from entering the office when Madam Anastasia was there because I might be scolded."Hi," I said, holding my neck and smiling shyly. She has companions, and they are all smiling, but one is not so much. "Yes, I'm going to have lunch." I looked at my watch and said that I still had an hour to eat.I did a lot earlier. Sir's meeting continued. Earlier, we came from outside because the meeting was held there."We'll go too. Join us," she said, so I slowly nodded and smiled again.It's better that I go with them; I've eaten alone several times. I don't have many close friends at the office; just now someone invited me with them. We went to a restaurant nearby; it was walkable because it was close. I couldn't help but sc
Chapter 20Gillian's POV"Jollibee!" I laughed when Zaji jumped when I said we were going to Jollibee. I already have a salary, so I want to take them to Jollibee."Dad, you really don't want to come?" I asked my dad, who was sitting in front and watching."No, just take out food for me," he said. I shook my head, because he was watching his favorite basketball team, so he didn't want to come with us. "Where's Yunard?" he suddenly asked, making me glance at my watch.Before I could answer, I saw Yunard coming in through our door."Kuya Yunard is handsome," Nika giggled as she glanced at me. I roll my eyes and just laugh."It's like your sister didn't find me handsome, you're just flattering me, Nika." Yunard's eyes narrowed as he said that to Nika."Haist! I don't know about you two. Come on, we might get into traffic," I said, reaching for my sling bag on the sofa."Why are you bringing them home? We can take them grocery shopping with us," Yunard said while we waited for our order.
I kept coughing when I saw Sir Zach right behind Yunard. Yunard must have felt hungry, so he asked to eat. While eating, I looked up at Yunard, but because the person behind him had my attention, I looked straight at him. "Are you okay?" Yunard handed me a glass of water when my coughing didn't stop. I quickly took it and drank it. After drinking, I slowly put it down and closed my eyes. I also adjusted my seat and once again caught a glimpse of Yunard's back. The man wearing a white polo shirt and jeans really caught my attention. He was looking at me seriously, and there was no trace of gayness in his movements. Someone was looking at him and simply whispering about him. Who can not look at him? With just one look, you can see that the clothes he is wearing are expensive, and his gold watch is flashing like he is telling everyone that he is rich. Isn't he afraid of bad people who might be blinded by his watch? What is he doing here? What is a rich CEO doing here? If he wants to
I took my phone next to me and answered mommy's call because I hadn't picked it up earlier when I followed my secretary and that guy inside the supermarket."Hello, Mom," I said while holding my nape."Where are you, Zachary? I closed my eyes and leaned back when I heard Mommy's angry voice. I put the phone and loudspeaker in front of me."There's an emergency; I can't go," I said and started the car. I glanced at the cafeteria where my secretary and the guy with her were eating.I laughed again and tightened my grip on the steering wheel when I saw that she even went back inside just for that guy."Why are you doing this, Zachary? They're all here; you're the only one who's not here! Show your grandpa some respect! You know you're going to lose your company in a little while because of your homosexuality, then this simple gathering you can't attend? Come here now, or else your grandpa really removes you as CEO of the company!""Tell Grandpa, he can take the company if he wants," I sa
Gillian's POVI closed my eyes when he suddenly dropped the papers he was holding."What are you thinking, Secretary Gillian?! Mr. Hernaez is one of the most important people in the company!" He rubbed both foreheads and stood up."B-But, Sir, you told me not to accept anything you want to have in your schedule right now. I couldn't help stuttering as I said that."I should have told you even before I said that. You should have told me first before taking down Mr. Hernaez! It was a big shame on Mr. Hernaez! That's your job; you can't even do it right!" I tried not to cry because of his scream.When I arrived, he was hot-headed. A while ago, someone told me while I was entering that he was bad-tempered right now.He kept quiet and didn't speak for a few seconds, so I looked up. He suddenly looked away when our eyes met."Leave," he said, returning to his seat. I took a deep breath before turning my back to him.When I came out, I immediately saw Zeyo's sister. I can't help but be amaze
I looked around the condo. The color of the condo is a mixture of gray and black. I only stopped when I saw Nheya exit a room, followed by Sir Zachary.My eyes widened when I saw that he was wearing only jersey shorts, no top.Zeyo said it was Sir's room. His condo is far away from the one we stayed in before. That slope is big, but this slope is bigger."You're coming too; you're just acting like you don't want to," Nheya said as she walked past me.Why does Nheya's blood seem hot to me? Isn't she like this when we first meet? Did I do something to her that I don't know about?"Sit down first, Gillain. I'll just get the drinks," Zeyo said while pointing to the sofa.I move slowly. On the way here, I texted Yunard that he should not pick me up now; he has not replied yet, and it looks like he hasn't read it yet.Zeyo returned immediately, carrying the beers. Sir also came to put down some food. I glanced at Nheya, who was now dressed differently. It's just shorts and a white shirt.Do
"Secretary Gillian!" I called to me, but I just kept walking. I can't believe I said that without stuttering. I suddenly became proud of myself because I said that to him because, to be honest, I was nervous about the way he looked at me. The way he stared at my lips made me faint, but I said it. I'm so proud of myself. I can't help but smile. Why is he like that? When I was already at home, I found Ma'am Nheya and Zeyo panicking. They fix their stuff quickly. I glanced at Ma'am Nheya, who was now wearing what she was wearing earlier. "I hate you, brother! You should have made sure about it! Look what you did! We are already panicking!" Ma'am Nheya said angrily to Zeyo while fixing her hair. "Why? What happened?" Sir spoke from behind me; like me, he also seemed surprised by the rush of Ma'am Nheya and Zeyo. "Ghad! I smell like alcohol!" Nheya spoke nervously and took the toothbrush from her bag. Zeyo had fixed his things, so he answered Sir's question. "Grandpa is on his way ho
I couldn't speak; I remembered what he said before. He said he wanted to buy a motorcycle. I thought he was just joking. I can't believe he actually bought a car, even though he already has one, and he bought it because he knew that I liked riding a motorcycle. I bit my lips.I stared at my hand when he touched it. He pulled me closer to his newly purchased motorcycle. With just one look, he already put his attention on me. I look at his motorcycle, and in just one glance, I know that it is expensive. Far away from the motorcycle that Yunard uses.Instead of holding him, I just hold the back of the motorcycle. He glanced at me because of what I did. He is waiting for me to put my hand on his waist."Come on, Baby. When I saw you riding his motorcycle, you were hugging his waist! Why don't you hold me too?" He said so and asked with a frown."Si--""Hold me in my waist, or I'll kiss you right now again," he said gruffly.I quickly put my hand on his waist. He wasn't satisfied with my h
