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..."
