Reject The CEO Decisively novel Chapter 25

"Oh and why is that?"

"Because. Just because okay!" I yelled.

"Hmm." He scratched his chin, while Adrian looked a bit hurt. "Not a valid reason. Sorry Emily, I'll have to ditch you." And just like that he left through the front door, leaving us both in silence. Awkward silence.

"I'm not that bad or scary." Adrian mumbled.

"Oh please. You are extremely bad and scary! Do you remember what happened the last time we were alone!"

"Good old memories." He replied, a bit cheerful this time.

"Whatever. Oh and just by the way if I find out that the backdoor is open, I'll sue you guys! I don't care if you're the boss or whatever."

"About that, we didn't break in. I told you he lied, the back door is just as it was. You can sleep safe now."

"Then how did you get in?"

"I have my sources."

"Adrian."

"I love it when you say my name." Was he seriously flirting with me now? I still haven't forgiven him for anything.

"There you go, looking pissed again." He sighed. "I got the address and a spare key from you father."

"Why would he give you the- oh."

"Yeah oh." He smirked.

"Dammit, why didn't I think of that." I can be so dumb at times.

"What can I say, blondes and brunettes, they're all the same nowadays."

"You do realize that you're blonde yourself Adrian."

"Sure do. So we good?" He asked, looking at me with hope in his eyes.

"If you can un-kiss me, then sure."

"You know I can't do that, I'm trying really hard you know." He said, looking at the TV screen, which was off.

I sighed deeply. "Fine then atleast apologize for the kiss. I need a sincere apology."

He didn't respond, his eyes still glued on the TV screen. Not used to apologizing, eh?

"Adrian? I don't have all day." Still no response.

"Hey, stop spacing out Adrian."

"Adrian." I started poking him on his arm.

"Oh and about that kiss. I'm really sorry." He said as he stopped and looked at me when we reached the door. I couldn't believe my ears. My eyes went wide. He finally apologized! And he actually sounded sincere!

I was about to reply with a 'thank you!' but he beat me to it.

"I'm really sorry, because I'm not going to apologize for kissing you."

Thankfully the weekend passed by peacefully, and by peacefully I mean I didn't see Adrian at all. On top of that I didn't have to go to work even though Lucas and Adrian cancelled their vacation. That sure gave me time to mentally prepare myself for the auction.

Yep, the stupid auction where guys, most probably old hags bid at girls just for a date that lasts a couple of hours.

I know it's not really stupid since the money goes for charity which is a very good cause, but cummon, can't you sell cheap hamsters instead? I'm sure they'll raise more money. People who care would actually buy them!

Hamsters are cute, no?

Less than 3 days were left for the auction, and I was completely freaked out by now. In a way the auction was good. It offered me distraction from a certain boss.

He was making passes at me and rejecting him was becoming harder and harder. I was running out of guts now.

Like what did he even want? To bed me, then dump me? I don't think so Mister.

I don't even want to think about him anymore.

The dress for the fancy charity event was an issue for me at first. Yep you heard me 'Fancy' charity event, Samantha's mom just couldn't keep it simple. Well the fancier the event, the better the buffet.

Anyways then I called Sam asking about the dress type, turns out that the dresses for us 25 girls are being arranged by Samantha's, mom who's also a designer which is a good thing and a bad thing. Good thing in a sense that i don't have to bother myself with the shopping, bad thing in a sense that the clothes she designs barely covers an inch of your body. But she knows I'm a bit conservative so I hope something decent is picked out for me. Otherwise I'll clearly say no. My modesty is really precious to me.
