Episode 23
Cristineâs Pov:
He walked out of my office slamming the door.
Smiles escaped my lips as I picked up the card.
I kssed the card and giggled.
So she wasnât his girlfriend or wife all along?
Heâs such a darling! ?
He insisted on dropping his card!
Of course I wanted the card but I just had to decline in his presence.
I quickly put his card into my handbag.
I stared at the ceiling absentmindedly smiling at nothing in particular.
I was so absentminded that I didnât notice when Dani walked in with some documents.
âHey! Crisy⊠Crisy!!â She called but I wasnât even listening.
I was just smiling.
She scoffed and looked around in confusion.
âCRISTINE!!â She screamed aloud as I flinched.
âYe⊠Yes!â I answered sharply
âDuh! Are you here at all?â She asked
âUhm⊠You startled me Daniellaâ I said defensively
âOh please⊠Iâve been calling youâ She said as I sighed softly.
âWhat do you want best?â I said trying to change the topic.
âSpare me that Miss Cristine Cruz⊠Why were you smiling crazily?â Dani asked in akimbo
âSmiling? Was I?â I pretended
âTchâŠyou know lying doesnât fit youâ She tuts
âWell it was nothing⊠I just remembered somethingâ I lied
âOh no! There is more to that smile I saw a while agoâ She insisted
âHell no!â I snapped
âOh hell yeah girlfriendâŠ. I hope you ainât hiding any gist from meâ She pouted her mouth as we laughed
âNo Dani⊠Gosh! Youâre such a talkative⊠Let me have the documents already and shoo OKâ I said as we shared a laugh.
âYou have a meeting with Mr Wong tonight right?â She asked
I exhaled deeply as I nodded in agreement.
âYeah!â I said
âDo you want me to come along? You know itâs gonna be a late night stuffâ She said
âDonât worry best! Iâll be fine by myselfâ I said as she shake her head.
âAs you likeâ She said winking at me before leaving.
I burst into laughter.
âSillyâ I yelled at her before going back to my desktop.
? ?
I drove into the very quiet estate.
Thoughts kept running through my mind.
Why will Mr Wong choose such a quiet place for the meeting by this time of the night?
Yikes! If not for the fact that him partnering with my company will fetch us billions, I wouldnât even agree to come to such a place.
I just need to get him sign the papers.
I drove into the quiet condominium.
I pull over and parked at the garage.
I picked up my handbag and got down from the car.
I stared around and shook my head.
As directed, I walked to the condominium and knocked.
The door throw open.
He smiled broadly showing off his brownish teeth.
I forced a smile at him.
