Our Crossed Fate

💮 chapter 7💮

It is Monday and it was my third day at Abdallah Corporation. It was 1 pm and I am rushing in there because Malik said he has to send me "hello Talia" i greeted the receptionist.

She smiled and waved because I was already in the elevator. It wasn't difficult to get handy of things because Lauren was of great help even Malik helped me.

Infront of people I call him Mr Abdallah but alone is bro or Malik. The elevator opened and I rushed to his office by greeting Lauren on my way. I knocked on Malik's door and entered. "Hello bro I am here" I greet him as I was entering the office.

"Take this folder and take it to the CEO of MA Enterprises Mr Alnsour." I looked at the folder taking it from his hand "and don't give it to anybody except him.

Understood?" he said "yes sir" I saluted before going out of the office.

"Where are you going?" Asked Lauren as I was passing "to MA Enterprises" I replied "Ohh my God you are one lucky b***h. The CEO is so hot" she said fanning herself.

I laughed at her "you have a boyfriend" I pointed out "I know but that doesn't remove the fact that he is so hot" I shook my head and left her gushing over him.

It was a forty five minutes drive from our office and here I am standing infront of a tall, intimidating, made of steel building. If Malik's building is big this one is bigger. I pushed the front doors and entered. Everything was cleaned and classy.

I didn't want to look like a stupid person so I went to the receptionist immediately. "Hello I am here to see the CEO" I told a brunette girl sitting behind.

She eyed me up and down in a disgust manner and continued chewing her gum as if I did not exist.

Looking down at my clothes I realised nothing was wrong with my outfit. It was a brown khurta arriving at my knee level with two slits at the side that I paired with white jeans and a blue hijab.

I cleared my throat again she then answered "He don't have time for beggars" ouchh that hurt but I wouldn't give her the satisfaction. "I am here to give him a file sent by Mr Abdallah so let me in or I will call my boss" her eyes widened a bit then she rolled them saying whatever and proceeded to make a call.

I was loosing my patience another nasti attitude or comment from this b***h I will strangle her. "Last floor and you will meet Mrs Smith. She will take you further".

I didn't even bother to reply and made my way towards the elevator as I wanted to press the button a man ran inside. He smiled and stood near me.

I pressed the last floor button and was waiting impatiently. "Hi are you new?" He questioned me politely "no I came here to deposit some documents" I told him "ah I see. I am Carl by the way" he forwarded his hand for me to shake "Zeinab" I replied and the doors of the lift opened "I reached my destination. See you" he said while exiting "bye".

Mohammed POV

I am very exhausted from working this project with Xander, Brandon and Malik but it will be a big deal for us. It will give us billions to all of us.

I really need a strong coffee I pressed the intercom "Sofia I need a coffee now" and leaned back in my chair closing my eyes. I heard the door being knocked "come in" since I thought that it was Sofia I didn't bother opening my eyes "keep it on the table" then I heard a gasp I opened my eyes to be met with the most beautiful girl ever.

Dark skin, brown eyes, plump and kissable lips, small nose, short and curvy body as from the hijab on her head I simply know that she is a Muslim.

I let my eyes take in all of her features since she was doing the same with me but stopped at some point. She took slow steps to the table and deposited my coffee and I was observing her like a hawk.

She was squirming under my gaze then I came back to reality I Mohammed Alnsour was checking a girl not another way around and the epitome is that she is not a blonde or model there is something wrong with me "good afternoon sir. Mr Abdallah sent me to bring these papers to you" and her angelic voice which I could listen all day. "Okay. Let me finish it so that you can go back with it".

I had no intention of giving back the papers today since it was not urgent but just to have her in my office and look at her for sometime made me to make her stay.

I took a sip of my coffee as I was glancing through the papers but I can feel her eyes on me making it hard to concentrate "you know that it is rude to stare" I told her "says someone who has been staring since I entered here" she muttered thinking I didn't get it. Smart mouth I would like to see what it can do again.

I shook my head to get rid of that thought and continue to pretend as I am working. "What is your name" I asked how stupid but I wanted to know "Zeinab" she replied. Beautiful name for a beautiful girl. Then her phone started ringing with a weird song "someone tell me a place where I can hide a body without being caught" she muttered frustratingly she picked up her phone "sky if I come back I will strangle you. You did this to get me back for this morning wait till I get my hands on you" the person on the other line spoke "don't bby me bye" she hung up then she looked at my amused face and realised I was looking at her the whole time.

"Sorry sir. If there is nothing else can I go" she asked looking down I can see she is little nervous " you can go but if I finish I will ask Malik to send you to come and get it" she frowned oh she is cute. Wait what did I say cute? This girl is making me do things "okay goodbye sir" she said while standing and walking out. One thing is for sure she will be mine.
