Crossed Path

Chapter 3: Meeting with the city’s no.1 Bachelor

We get down and head into the building . As soon as we enter, all heads turn to look at us and Cara, another designer just like me comes running in my direction with a wide grin and it was at this moment that I knew something is going on. “ Sup?” I ask Cara with an interrogating voice. “ oh hun, can you not be grumpy this morning?, she complains. “ Well, I just landed you an amazing deal and I know you are going to deliver just like any other so far” she continues as she walked me towards my office. I keep quiet and listen as she explains the whole situation and ends with a sigh. “ You didn’t land me a deal, you saved yourself by setting a trap for me, how selfish” I speak as I roll my eyes at her. Cara looks at me with a pleading eyes as she walks into her own cabin. I burst through the entrance of my office and lay my eyes on a man in formal attire.He was about same age as my husband but my husband was slightly better looking. He turned to look at me and stood up to shake hands which I also extended my hands to shake his. “ How unprofessional of the famous Ms.Ruth Smith or do you prefer Mrs. Red?”, he asked. I scoff at his arrogance which could be undoubtedly heard in his voice and answer, “ you may address me as you prefer Mr.Kraine” .
