Chapter 44: Quick yet mischievous stunt...

After he was done, Katherine took her handbag from the back seat and said with a smile, "I'll be leaving then. Bye.. And please drive safe.."

"Wait!" Before Katherine could unlock the door, she heard Ethan's voice which made her stop at her position.

Turning towards him, she asked confusedly, "Now what happened?"

Ethan just gave her a killing smile and said, "This was left.."

Saying this, he immediately pulled her face towards him and pecked her lips softly before leaving her all of a sudden.

Whereas Katherine who was still not able to believe what had just happened in few span of seconds, sat there dumbfounded with her lips a little parted and eyes widened in shock.

On the other side, Ethan was completely satisfied with the reaction he got from his wife in return of his quick yet mischievous stunt..

With a smirk playing on the corner of his lips, he slyly said, "What wifey? Now don't act like we have never kissed before..

Moreover, it was just a peck which was nowhere near the one we shared on our wedding night. Can you deny the fact now…huh??"

Katherine's cheeks turned beet red hearing his shameless words. If it was another time, then she would have given him a perfect reply. But neither did she nor Ethan have time to joke around anymore.

So without arguing on this topic, she just reminded him, "Mr. Ethan Jones. You're forgetting that it's gonna be your first day in the office here. So do you want your boss to get angry on you on the first day itself and kick you out of the office?"

Hearing her sarcastic comment, Ethan just smirked before retorting back, "Who has the guts to kick their own boss out of his office?"

This fell like a thunderbolt on Katherine as she got confused with his words. From the moment, she got to know about Ethan, she knew him to be an white collar employee of a big conglomerate. But she never thought him to be a Boss himself..

Did her ears play with her or was Ethan just joking with her like always?

"Wh…what are you saying, Ethan? You a..and a Boss? But weren't you just a simple employee? Then how?" Katherine was asking all of her doubts out without even taking a proper breath which made her stammer a little in between.

Ethan understood her dilemma and thought to calm her down first before replying to her every question.

Holding her shoulders, Ethan said, "Kathy.. Relax.. okay? Relax first. And about me being a boss, it's just a partial truth..

Actually, when I was working in the New York office, I used to be a very trusted manager there. So now that I'm here, so my Boss has given me the duty to supervise all the work here on behalf of him..

So partially, I'm the boss of this company until our CEO takes the responsibility himself. Moreover we got a new project which needs to be handled from here. So when I had few words with him about my transfer here due to our marriage, he immediately agreed. Do you get it now?"

Katherine sighed a breath of relief and exclaimed, "Thank God! Otherwise, I thought that you were lying to me from the first, you know. And I just hate lies. Promise me that you won't ever lie to me."

Noticing the vulnerability in her eyes, Ethan immediately nodded her head before pulling her into an assuring hug.

Katherine too reciprocated the hug with same intensity but what she failed to notice was the changed expression on Ethan's face which was giving a hint of his guilty conscience but not too strong for anyone to detect it immediately.

"Okay, then.. See you later." Katherine said, finally breaking the hug.

Ethan nodded and said, "Yeah.. I'll come to pick you up."

Katherine knew that it was waste of time to argue with him. So she just agreed with him and got out of the car. Waving him a goodbye, she entered the premises of her office.

While Ethan too giving a final glance to her, drove away from there…

As soon as Katherine stepped inside, Olivia was the first one to greet her, "Hey, girlie! Finally back to work!"

"Yup.. Before you start blabbering nonsense, let me ask you about the task I've given you yesterday." Katherine asked with a straight face.

Olivia who was in a mood to tease her more, stopped immediately in her action and turned all serious.

"Uhm… Yes… I have fixed your meeting with the head of HR department. And he said, you can meet him whenever you want. But the thing which is triggering me the most is….

Are you actually sure about it? I mean, at least think twice before directly jumping into it. It's a quite big decision, Kathy.." Olivia tried to make her understand her point.
