He's My Ruthless Billionaire novel Chapter 46

He suddenly kept an arm around me and I looked at him.

"It is very beautiful. Seeing the sunset with you" he said and I smiled as brush crept to my cheeks.

"It indeed is" I replied.

As the sun finally set, I started feeling cold. How can I wear this on this cold December night?

I wanted to suppress my shivers, but I was evidently shivering and he didn't take much time in recognizing that.

"Feeling cold?" he asked.

I nodded while surrounding myself with my own hands.

He sighed and took off his jacket, like a hero, and made me wear it himself.

"You should have told me," he said and hugged me. "It will be okay. We are gonna return very soon"

I smiled. "You'll catch a cold," I said.

"No, I won't. I have you" he said and hugged me more. "I am not feeling cold anymore"

I looked at him and smiled. "Let's go"

"Yeah," he said and got up. He looked at me and stopped.

"Hailey..." he said. My heart started pounding loudly, by the intensity with which he spoke my name.

He leaned down and placed a small kiss on my lips. "I-I... uh... let's go"

I smiled and nodding, followed him to his car, and then we drove back to our house.

Robert's POV 

I loved each place we went together. At the end of the day, I wanted to tell, I think... I am falling for her. 

But I should slow down. Until yesterday, I hurt her so badly, and today, I would say that I am starting to like her? 

Willn't it be absurd? 

So, I decided to keep quiet. 

After returning home, we went straight to our room and laid down. 

She was still feeling cold, so I decided to hug her. We slept in arms of each other. 

I think this is indeed a good start for both of us. 

The next day I woke up and glanced at my phone. Many missed calls from Xander. 

I called him back.  

"Xander," I said. 

"Boss. I think it would be good if you could come back to work today. I am having some problems nowadays. Moreover, there are some important contacts on their way. You might wanna see them" he informed in a formal voice. 

'Hey Hailey, would love to spend the day with you, but gotta go for work. I will return ASAP. Take care, bye~' 

Yeah, it is fine.  

I kept the letter on her side and left to get ready. I was a little late but doesn't matter. 

I reached the LO after a long time and damn, it is a hell of paperwork at the CEO's office's desk. 

I made my way to the President's office and found Xander working on his laptop. 

"Xander," I said. He looked at me and stood up.  

"Boss. Here are the contracts" he handed some files to me. I nodded and taking the files, I made my way to my own office. They are many files and I don't wanna interfere in his business. He is already working so much. 

If Hailey was fine, I could use her help. She is excellent at summarizing files. But it is my fault, I should bear with it. 

I sat down and started reading every one of them personally. They were selected ones, who were very important. The others are managed by vice-presidents and the president. 

I finally did half of the work, when it was lunchtime. I didn't have lunch, because I wanted to complete my work first and go home. 

You know, after so many years, finally, I have someone waiting for me to return home. 

Otherwise, I have no one whom I should return to every day, it was just a place where I used to live, I never wanted to call it a house. 

But now, when I will go home, I know someone will be there, waiting for me to complete my work and meet her, waiting for me to spend time with her. 

I completed my duties way before the time decided, so I decided to head back home. I was, for the first time in my life, happy to go back home after working the day.
