Chapter 20: DON'T BLUSHED IN FRONT OF OTHER PEOPLE

Tobias looked at the woman beside him.

"miss Ho, relax."

he said trying to calmed her down.

She kept on fidgeting on his side.

"you're not talking in front , just stand beside me, okay?"

he tried to consoled her

"okay Sir."

she nodded in response

Tobias opened the door for her and let her in first, then he followed.

The people inside who witnessed the scene, eyes wide through so much shocked.

Its as if they had seen a ghost!

They had never seen Tobias enter the room with a woman. Especially a young woman!

He even opened the door for her!

This woman is just her secretary, right?

All people at the board room shared the same thoughts.

The woman was extremely beautiful. Being a secretary wasn't suit for her!

Is it the reason why Tobias changed his mind about his rule?!

They'd already heard about that secretary of his, but they never had the chance to met her.

They'd snapped back from reality when Tobias speak.

"let's start!"

ignoring the shocked looks his board giving him.

He knew about why they reacted that way. He never brought Riza with him when his on a meeting. He always reasoned out that he can handle it by himself.

But Maria was different, he wanted to see her pretty face every moment. He doesn't care if she won't talked to him.

Tobias just simply wanted her there, within his reach.

They started the meeting with discussing their company profit and upcoming projects. It went well and smoothly, excluding the fact that the board gave him and Maria curious looks.

He glanced at Maria and saw her blushed face.

On the other hand, Maria felt her face burned.

She felt the stares the board giving her.

She felt being a thief the way they stared at her.

How will it last and she wanted to run away from this place!

Maria felt a chill beside her and she turned towards Tobias but she was welcomed with a cold stare from him.

The meeting was adjourned and she hastily went outside towards her table.

Maria sat on her chair and tiredly slumped on the table.

She has no idea why they'd been looking at her that way. It looked like she outgrown another head!

She heard the main entrance of their office creaked open.

Maria saw Tobias walked towards her and put his hand on her table.

"why did you leave me there?"

he asked her while leaning towards her.

"Sir? I left because the meeting was done."

she leaned back trying to reasoned out.

"I know , but did I tell you to leave?"

Why his making a big deal out of it?

"no Sir, I'm sorry."

she apologized at him.

Tobias took a long breath and calmed himself.

"okay I forgive you, but next time wait for my word before you do something."

He stand straight and pinched the bridge of his nose. As if thinking if he's going to tell his next demand or not.

"and do not blushed in front of other people?"

he looked at her seriously and walked towards her table once more.

Maria abruptly looked at him on his eyes, bewildered.

"I'm sorry bout that sir, it's just that I can't take their stares any longer!"

she reasoned out

"reasons! still, if saw you next time, blushed in front of other people, I'll punished you!"

he speak irritatedly

"but Sir, it's not your concern nor your business anymore if whom I make my face blushed!"

she's starting to get frustrated and she turned her attention on her computer. Not looking at him again.

"so you're opposing with me now?"

he asked, angrier even more because of what she did and said.

"why are you making a big deal out of it?"

"because..."


Chapter 21: JEALOUSY STRIKES

"because I want that I'm the only reason why you blushed!"

he blurted out.

Oh no! He can't take back what he just said!

Maria was stunned. Did she really heard what she just heard?

Tobias left her with a shocking revelation!

Is he jealous?

Meanwhile, inside his office, Tobias didn't know what to do.

He's fucking jealous!

Why?

He doesn't know!

He just want Maria to blushed because of him.

Only him!

Tobias really wanted to punched all those faces that gawking at her.

He really felt furious!

Maria looked at her wristwatch and saw the time. Her boss had a lunch meeting wit Mr. Teng.

She was hardly choosing whether to knocked in his door and tell him, or wait for him to come out by his own will?

Maria looked again on her wristwatch.

Oh dear, they only have 30 minutes till their meeting with Mr. Teng.

If she won't call him, and remind about his lunch meeting, they wouldn't be able to closed the deal. Otherwise, Tobias will get mad at her.

But how could she faced him afterwards happened?

Spell AWKWARD.

Maria composed herself and tried to calmed down.

Breath in, breath out.

She walked straight to his office door and knocked 3 times, but she did not hear any response from inside.

Maria knocked again, still the same, no response.

She was going to knocked again for the third time when the door suddenly swung open.

Tobias came out with a serious face. As if nothing happened.

"sir,I'll just remind you about your lunch meeting with Mr. Teng."

Maria stuttered, not daring to looked at him. Her eyes glued on her notepad.

"what time?"

"you only have 18 minutes sir to get there."

she was really nervous that he will scold her.

"let's go"

Tobias walked past her and went towards the main entrance of their office. Without giving her a second glance.

Maria was in daze, why is he giving her a cold shoulder now?

Tobias was worst than a girl having their period!

Maria was in awe when she saw his car. This one was different from last time. The car last time was a black Maybach that she can't forget

in her entire life! Today was a Bugatti Veyron also worth millions of dollars!

Perks of being very rich!

Inside the Golden Cuisine, a high class restaurant. The three of them met.

"Mr. Chiu, nice to meet you in person. The man behind the success of The CHIU Glass and Aluminum Supply."

Mr. Teng complimented him, then held his hand out to shake hands.

"nice to meet you too, thank you."

Tobias accepted his hands casually.

"and who was this beautiful lady you're with?"

Mr. Teng asked, eyeing Maria with admiration in his eyes which Tobias saw.

"this is my secretary, miss Ho."

Tobias speak controlling his emotions.

Maria held her hand out to shake hands with Mr. Teng.

"nice meeting you Mr. Teng"

Maria greeted politely.

Mr. Teng accepted her hand but to her surprise Mr. Teng brought her hand to his lips and kissed it lightly.

They never saw the anger that flashed through Tobias' eyes. He balled his hands into fist furiously.

He glanced at Maria and saw her crimson red face.

The fuck!

He cleared his throat before he speak coldly.

"let's start the meeting then"

"expect our quotation to be delivered tomorrow Mr. Teng."

"I am looking forward to that Mr. Chiu."

Mr. Teng answered him but looking at Maria.

Tobias stood up abruptly and looked towards Maria.

"we need to go Mr. Teng. Miss Ho, we have still work to do."

He grab her wrist and pulled her hardly.

Maria looked back at Mr. Teng , as if apologizing in behalf of her boss.

"looked back again and I'm gonna take this deal off!"
