" Daniyal, you are late by 10 mins", He said, shifting his eyes to Daniyal.
"Waleed, you know how traffic is in our city", Daniyal said as he walked towards his desk.
They both shook hands and Waleed directed Daniyal towards the couches.
" Hey Mia, why are you still standing there", Daniyal called out to me.
I was still standing near the door, unsure of what to do next. To be honest, I was planning to flee his office never to return, but my boss was looking at me with a threat in his eyes.
"Mmh nothing Daani, I think I just don't feel very well" I mumbled in my mouth.
I was literally freaking out, like all people in this world, Daniyal had decided to do a joint venture with this asshole.
The way Daniyal was looking at me like he would strangulate me right at that moment left me with no choice but to walk towards the men who were seated on the couches opposite to each other.
"Waleed, this is Mia. She is the best architect in my firm" Daniyal introduced me to Waleed.
Not that we need any introduction, we knew each other really well. Barring the fact that he was the fucking CEO of KCC.
"Hello", I greeted as I sat beside Daniyal.
Waleed just replied with a nod, 0he didn't even spare me a glance.
He was completely in his CEO form right now, and I was glad he pretended as if he didn't know me. They started discussing the details regarding the project. Waleed's secretary had joined us in the
meeting. She was busy taking notes while I was busy examining her.
She was breathtakingly beautiful, with her soft hazel eyes and golden brown layer cut hairs. She was wearing a pencil skirt and blouse, her hourglass-like figure quiet on display.
The glances she was giving Waleed every now and then was enough for me to understand she was infatuated to him, while Waleed was behaving with her in a strictly professional way.
It was difficult to deduce if he had any feelings for her if there were any he was hiding it really well.
After the formal discussion his secretary left us, another girl brought in refreshments and she was nearly as pretty as his secretary.
This guy really liked to surround himself with pretty girls I thought amused.
There were sandwiches, lemon cake, cheesecake, puffs, and other mouth-watering items, still, I hardly felt like eating.
I just wanted to leave the place, it was difficult to imagine working on this project along with this cocky bastard.
I was just thinking of an excuse for how to tell Daniyal I didn't want to work on this project, but by the looks of Daniyal, he was really very enthusiastic about this project.
And if he had brought me along with him on this project meant he wanted me by his side.
I was just sitting with a croissant in my plate and sipping coffee when Daniyal got a call and excused from there, he left the room and went outside talking on the call before I could react.
I was left with Waleed alone in his office, and Waleed who had ignored me all the time since I was here speaking only with Daniyal now was staring at me with a piercing gaze.
His eyes always made me uncomfortable, the intensity of those grey eyes with which he watched me felt like they were stripping me.
He didn't speak a word with his mouth but the things his gaze was making me feel were completely different from what I have felt my whole life.
I was getting mad at Imad again, I was in this mess because of his coffee. I knew Waleed hated me, and I don't think we can work together without ripping apart each other.
"We are doing the sight survey on Saturday, and I want you to come with me. Kabir will be with us and I think Waleed and a few employees from his firm", Daniyal informed.
Wtf, now was I going to spend hours with that man on the site? This was getting scarier than I had expected.
I need to think of something, should I just resign? Or should I just commit suicide? Which one was the better option?
"Mia don't worry, there are still two months for your wedding and you can take one month off for your wedding and if you want you can work from home. There won't be any pressure on you, but just think this project will be a start point of your career", Daniyal said looking at me.
Maybe he had read my expressions and was thinking I was worried because of my wedding.
Shit, Mia, you are an ass I cursed myself, I could have thought about my wedding as an excuse but now Daani had already cleared that point.
"Waleed is a great guy, I am really looking forward to working with him, and you can also learn a lot from him Mia", Daniyal added.
"Yeah he seemed okk, I think it's his grandfather's hard work. I know his grandfather is a good friend of Dada", I said to Daniyal, honestly saying I don't find anything remarkable in Waleed.
He had just taken over the farm from his grandfather, the firm was well established even before Waleed was born. That I had known from Dada, I had never met Waleed though his grandpa used to come to our house a lot.
Waleed was mostly out of the country for his education, but I had heard a lot about him from Dada. It was almost like Dada really admired Waleed, yeah maybe he was really nice, but my experience, with him,
was awful.
He was an insensitive, arrogant asshole and I really despised him.
