ALYSSA’S POV
TWO WEEKS LATER
Two weeks with Mr. Xavier is like hell to me. I don’t know what’s wrong with him a minute he’s calm, the next he’s like a roaring lion. He’s like a pregnant woman with deadly mood swings or can I say a pregnant ‘man’. He’s getting more handsome and sexy each day and I love it, I don’t know what’s wrong with me, but I think I like Mr. Xavier, and I’m confused. I don’t know if I really like him or love him.
Right now, we are on our way to a very important meeting in the next town, Mr. Xavier, and I were sitting in the back seat with the driver in the driver’s seat. The ride was a long and tiring one with nothing to do but stare at my iPad, but finally, we got to the company and went in.
“Good morning, Mr. Winthrop, this way Please.” A charming young man said while staring at me with a seductive smile. Please don’t tell me he’s trying to flirt with me right now, I turned to see Mr. Xavier giving deathly glares at him.
“Please lead the way.” I said, and he nodded, walking away, and we followed to the conference room.

XAVIER’S POV
I glared at the guy staring at Alyssa seductively. I can’t believe he’s actually trying to flirt with her with his damn f*****g eyes, I feel like punching him hard on his face. We got to the conference room and sat down and shortly after the rest group walked in (the group consists of five companies, including mine, and we gather once or twice in a year to discuss and share our ideas in our various businesses, I'm actually the head well not to brag, but I’m the most wealthiest man in this conference room) Miss Brown stood up and all the men were with an obnoxious smile or smirk, why on earth are they staring at her body like that I mean it’s not like Miss Brown has a nice body shape. I removed the scowl on my face before facing Alyssa.
“Good morning gentlemen, you’re welcome to this yearly gathering and my boss is delighted you could make it.” she said and the men clapped. Glad indeed.
“We’ll all get straight to business since I don’t want to take much of your time.” she walked forward to the big projector in the room carrying her laptop and all the men eyes followed every of her movements. It is unclear to me why I am getting all worked up because some men are staring at my secretary with lust, yes, maybe because she is my secretary. She opened her laptop and some diagrams or pictures showed on the projector, she started explaining some things on it while the men gave her rapt attention, something they hadn’t done in years. In the past years when I come to the gathering with my previous secretary, they always get themselves busy with one thing or the other while she’s speaking and them giving their full attention to Alyssa is quite surprising or were they just staring at her body. Thinking about it, Alyssa looked beautiful in that female suit of hers and her black hair, which was packed in a tight ponytail. After saying whatever she was explaining she bowed a little and went back to her seat, but before seating a man I know too well s*****d her ass and that made me mad. I heard the i***t chuckles as Alyssa looked at him with wide eyes, he smiled and placed his filthy hand in her lap, rubbing it sensually, okay I can’t contain my anger anymore, I’ve got to do something before it consumes me.
“Mr. Fidelio you’re banned from this yearly gathering.” I yelled and everyone stared at me in shock.
“What? You can’t just ban me like that, Xavier.” he said with a smile, standing up.
“Really.” I smirked.
“You’re still a child Xavier and you don’t know anything about the business world, so you don’t have the right to throw me out.” he also yells.
“Xavier, what did Fidelio do that made you take such a drastic decision.” Mr. Roman asked,
“Why don’t you ask the scumbag who was busy harassing my secretary.” I spat out angrily.
“What? I wasn’t harassing her, and can’t Your Secretary speak for herself.” I scoffed and turned to Alyssa.
“Mr. Fidelio you’re to leave this conference room this instant, or I am doing it the hard way.” I said, but he remained unmoved.
“You can’t do anything, Xavier.” he challenged. Okay, that’s it, I signaled four guards, and they held Mr. Fidelio and his secretary, dragging them out.
“Xavier you can’t throw me out you hear, you can’t.” he yelled as they dragged him out.
“Make sure to take him out of this building, I don’t want to see him here ever again.” I said, and they finally dragged him out while he continued screaming. I was angry, you just wait Mr. Fidelio you won’t know what’s coming your way.
“The meeting is over.” I said, standing up.
“But Mr. Xavier.......” I stared at him and no one told him to keep his f*****g mouth shut.
I barged out of the conference room and Miss Brown followed behind hastily, we got to the car park and entered the car as the driver drove off.

ALYSSA’S POV
The whole drama was playing in my head as we rode to the company. What just happened?, did Mr. Xavier get angry because that imbecile touched me. He shouldn’t have intruded, I know how to take care of myself very well, but I’m grateful, and I’m still thinking about why he was so pissed at Mr. Fidelio for s******g me, I mean not like he cared right, right am just his secretary and he did it to protect his image. We got to the company and Mr. Xavier barged out still angry, I sighed before stepping out picking my iPad and handbag.
“Ma’am.” the driver called, and I turned to him.
“Yes sir.” he offered a smile before speaking up.
“Don’t go close to him now, he’s very angry and if you do or say something to him, he might fire you.” he advised, and I really appreciated his concern.
“Thanks sir.” I walked into the company’s lobby and waved at Tania before taking the elevator. I got to my office floor and made to enter my office but paused to look at Mr. Xavier’s own, it was locked, so I couldn’t see anything. I sighed again before entering my office. What happened earlier still bothered me, the way Mr. Xavier flared up when he sparked me and the way he also protected me, it was so sweet. I’ve seen Mr. Xavier angry before, but today’s own was very scary, I made a mental note not to make him angry again.
After work I left the office and since Mr. Xavier wasn’t in his office when I went to take his briefcase, I went home feeling tired. Tris was nowhere to be found, so I had to take the bus.
“Mum, am back.” I yelled, pulling the killing heels from my legs. Gosh, wearing those all day isn’t easy.
“Oh my baby.” she pulled me into a hug and I gladly hugged her back.
“How was your day and the meeting?” she asked. I groaned tiredly, I can’t tell mum what happened at the meeting.
“My day was fine and the meeting it...... it went well.” I lied, and she narrowed her eyes at me.
“Are you lying to me Aly?.” she asked.
“Yes..... I mean no mum I ain’t lying to you, the meeting went did.” I really did went well.
“You sure.” I nodded. “100%.”
“Go freshen up, and it seems you’re tired. Don’t worry, I will bring your dinner to your room.” she said, and I beamed.
“Thanks Mum, you’re an angel, what will I do without you?” I asked, and she smiled.
“Absolutely nothing baby.” she winked, and I chuckled before going to my room thinking about how sexy Mr. Xavier was while defending me. Aly get a grip on yourself.
