From Fake to Forever

CHAPTER 3

Daisy

"Sir, do you need me to help out with anything?" I asked after sitting down for a while and doing nothing but watching him work.

"No," he simply said.

"Then why did he insist I stay here," I thought, don't push it Daisy.

An hour passed and I just sat there doing nothing, forget it, I decided to speak out.

"Sir, it's past four, can I leave now, I'm supposed to go somewhere with my friend," I said carefully.

"Just a little more and I'll be done," he said looking at me and just then my belly decided it was time to make grumbling sounds.

"Hmm," I cleared my throat, embarrassed clutching my stomach.

"I'm sorry Sir," I said with my head down, I just wanted the ground to swallow me, I was so embarrassed that I knew my cheeks would be red.

"Look up," Mr. Alexander commanded.

"I said look at me Daisy," He said again.

Oh my gosh, this is the second time he's called me by my first name.

I slowly raised my head up.

"Did you get lunch?" He asked, I shook my head signaling a 'no'.

"Why?" He asked, he sounded slightly angry.

"Uhh...I ....I forgot?" I stuttered.

Why am I stuttering, maybe because he makes me nervous?

"You forgot?" He asked angrily.

"Yes Sir," I said wondering how it was his business.

"What am I going to do with you," he muttered angrily.

"What would you like to eat?"

"Anything," I answered

"What exactly?" He asked.

"I'm not a picky eater Sir," I said honestly.

"Just name a food," he said glaring at me.

"Fine Spaghetti with meatballs" I said

He ordered the food and we ate together. I decided to go to the restroom to call Jessie so she wouldn’t get worried.

"Excuse me Sir, I would like to use the restroom," I said, making my way out.

"You can use mine," he said.

"Are you sure Sir?"

"I believe I wasn't joking Ms. Jenkins," he said sternly .

"Okay Sir"

"Hey Jessie, wag wan," I say laughing as Jessie picked up.

"I'm good, what's up?" She asked.

"Uhh, I'm still at the company," I said.

"By this time? You should have come home since, what's keeping you?"

"Long story but my boss is keeping me here," I said.

"Why?"

"I don't know,' I said.

"Somebody has to put your boss in his place," Jessica shouted angrily.

"Hmm".

"Okay, I'll go to the hospital now and stay with Jay, you'll meet me whenever your boss releases you okay?"

"Yeah, thank you so much Jessie".

"Anything for you Daisy-pie".

"Jessica," I whined.

"What?"

"Stop calling me that ".

After the call with Jessica, I did my business and came out, Mr. Alex was still working.

I decided I couldn't bear this anymore, I had to speak up.

"Sir, it's clear you don't need my help, shouldn't I leave?" I said.

"I just need someone to stay with me," he said tiredly, rubbing his face with his hand.

"In that case shouldn't your fiancé Ms Sarah be here?" I asked.

Ok, I shouldn't have said that cos it's like I had awoken the devil, he looked so angry like his veins were about to explode.

"Daisy," he yelled hitting the table with his fist.

"Just keep quiet," he said angrily.

After that I decided to keep my mouth shut and sit on the couch..

I felt someone shaking my body, by then it was already dark outside.

"Daisy, wake up," Mr. Alex said, his face was in front of mine, "he really is so handsome," I thought.

What? I shifted immediately from him and ended up lying down more on the couch .

I stood up immediately and Mr. Alexander chuckled.

"You slept off," he said with his hands in his pocket.

"I did?" I asked, man I must have been so tired, I didn't know when I slept.

"Yeah," he said, "I'm done, so you can go now,".

"Okay Sir, thank you," I said.

"Wait, I'll drop you off, it's late".

"Ok Sir".

We used the private elevator and came into his private garage where his Rolls - Royce Swept ail was parked.

"Wowww!!!!!" I mentally screamed.

He unlocked the car and opened the front passenger seat for me.

"Thank you," I said and entered, he closed the door and went over to his seat.

"Wait, he's driving," I thought as he sat down In the driver's seat.

"Yes, I sent my driver home, it's late already," he said.

"Did I say that out loud?" I gasped.

"Yes, you sure did," he said amused.

He leaned in to me, his face barely meters away from mine.

"Is he going to kiss me, don't tell that's his plan, cos I'd slap his face," I thought.

He fixed my seatbelt and started the car and drove off.

Phew...

"Where to? He asked and I gave him the direction to the hospital.
