Filthy Rich by Atarah Yvaine (ereader ebook TXT) 📕

I am still confused. Did I mistake this man as Deus secretary? Is he his friend or a shareholder to this company? But he is sitting in the secretary's desk?

"Are you, his friend? I thought..... " I pointed at the desk and the paper works. Well, maybe he really is his secretary. I am just surprised that Deus seems so close to him. Maybe he really changed his grumpy and serious attitude towards his employees. He deserves a kiss because of that.

"Yeah, I am his secretary and a friend." he said

" I am Jax, by the way" he smiled at me and this guy is also handsome.

"Oh, I am sorry about the question it's just that I am really astonished that he is being friendly now. You know he used to have bad reputation in terms of his relationship with his employees." I explained and he gives me a thumbs up.

"Is he here?" I pointed at the office door.

"He's already in the conference room. He has a scheduled meeting in about fifteen minutes from now." Aww. I badly want to see him.

Fifteen minutes? I think I should see him before his meeting starts.

"Can you bring me to him? I need to see him." he quickly led the way and I followed him. We entered the elevator and he pressed the button for the right floor.

"He didn't know that you're here?" he asked as I happily nod.

"I hope he will be surprised." I giggled

"He's a bit moody today. He keeps on looking on his phone and I heard him ranting of how could you handle not texting him for the whole twenty-four hours when he can't even stop himself texting you almost every time." I laughed at what he shared. I didn't expect Deus to act that way.

"Really? My poor baby" I feel bad that my flight took almost twenty hours. Because of too much joy and excitement I forgot to send him a message when I arrived in the airport.

The elevator door open and Jax lead the way. We reached a big wooden door.

Jax opened the door and peek inside.

"Mr. Cavelli, someone's looking for you" I heard him say.

I don't know why but I am feeling a little nervous. I don't know what to do or even say when I finally show myself to him. I seldom make an effort for him and I hope this will make him happy.

"My meeting will start soon; can you just ask him to wait for me or better yet ask him to come back tomorrow" I know that Deus is the one speaking. I miss him.

His words make me pout. Comeback tomorrow? Really?

Jax look at me to ask me what to do.

I quickly marched to the door and peep my head to see the inside of the room. I see that Deus is focused on reading some files so he is not looking at me. I see some businessman sitting in the swivel chairs surrounding a big white oval table. A few seats are still vacant and I guess they are still waiting for them to arrive.

"I traveled twenty hours to be asked to return tomorrow? that's awful Mr. Cavelli" he quickly raised his head and look at me. He stares at me for a minute and blink multiple times. He can't believe that I am here and I chuckled.

"Okay, I'll be back again tomorrow bye. I just want to say hi" I smiled and remove my head on the door and close it.

Let's see if you can focus on your meeting. I smirk.

"Thanks, Jax, I think that's enough. Let's go" we started walking when I heard the door flung open. I look back and saw Deus still flustered of what he is seeing.

"Where are you going?" he managed to say. He takes long stride towards me and pull my hand to make me close to him. He hugs me so tight and when he is done crushing my bones, he keeps a distance and kiss me.

"Love, you're real" he said pinching my cheeks and I laughed.

"What do you think of me? a ghost?" I asked and he shut me up using his own mouth. He kissed me again.

"I miss you" he rests his forehead to mine and straightly look at me. His is smiling and my heart feels so satisfied that I made him happy.

I put more distance between us when I see that a lot of businessmen is making their way to the conference room.

"You need to go back" I ask Dues and he shake his head. "Come on don't be such a kid. Be professional" I tried to push him away but he dragged me with him.

"Thanks, Jax. I'll bring her with me" he waved at Jax and Jax laughed.

OH MY GOSH.

I am not even wearing nice clothes. My hair is messy and I don't know how I smell.

He brings me to the conference room and ask for a spare chair and he make me sit beside him. He intertwined are hands together and I am sitting too close to him. All of the people inside are looking at us specially to our hands.

"Ladies and gentlemen. She is my girlfriend." he introduced me to them and I shyly smile at everyone.

They individually walk towards me to give me a handshake. I gladly interact with them.

"You look prettier in person miss."
