I instantly sat up at the sound of his voice and glanced around the place until my eyes landed on Avery. His grey eyes blazing with anger as he glared down at me.
"M-Mr Bronze.... I was..." I stammered as I looked around, then glanced over my shoulder towards the boss of NiCo and he stared at me with a blank expression, as though he was unsure of how to react.
That's not helping!
Was he even the boss!?
Gosh, I'm screwed!
"And you, why weren't you in the office when I told you I was coming?!" Avery turned his attention towards the supposed boss of NiCo who suddenly smirked and shoved his hands into his black jeans.
"Sorry I missed you." He simply shrugged his shoulders at Avery who I heard had clicked his tongue behind me. "You let your secretary handle all the work and I had to explain a lot to him. See to it that you get the information." Avery said before forcedly grabbing my upper arm, pulling me to him so roughly. "And what belongs to me mustn't be touched by your filthy hands." He hissed before tightening his hold on my already tight arm and began to drag me towards the doors.
"That's no way to treat a lady, Avery." The man said as he reached over my head and grabbed hold of Avery's arm. "You can't possibly like the thought of people watching you take her out like that. At least not in my company." He said calmly, without a frown line on his face.
He looked so radiant.....
"I treat my own property how ever I want." Avery hissed, pulling me further from the man and forcing me to stumble as I tried to stand properly behind him. "If you've got a problem with it, why don't just disappear. You're good at being nothing." Avery whispered with a nasty grin on his stupid face as I stared in shock.
Was he here to make negotiations?
Clearly with that rotten attitude, any company would reject his proposal.
"I'd like to. But I think a dove caught my eye." He smiled softly as his eyes landed on me.
Was I the dove?
Avery moved slightly until he was entirely blocking me from this charming man.
"We'll get going. Nice meeting you, Hazel." Avery said through gritted teeth before grabbing my shoulders and pushing me towards the door.
"Like wise." I heard Hazel say. "I'll see you soon... Iris...." There was just something about the way my name rolled out of his tongue that forced my cheeks to double their own temperature and make me a boiling tomato. Either his masculinity was a match to Avery or it was the way he was somehow secretly seductive.
Or maybe I'm just excited.
I blinked for a moment as Avery still dragged me towards the car, almost oblivious to it as my thoughts trailed off to Hazel.
Did he mean he liked me?
"Get in." Avery ordered as he opened the door to his car. I glanced around and towards the car that I rode, coming here.
"You said you do not allow to-"
"Get the fvck in Iris." He hissed and I frowned slightly, but got in anyway. I sat on the other side and he sat right at the door, closing it as he made himself comfortable. I stared at him even as the car began to move, a bit annoyed that he was acting as though I was some pet or jewelry that he could call his at any time.
I was a human being and not any one's property.
"Mr Bronze, may I ask an unprofessional question?" I asked and he lazy glanced me as he shoved his hands into his pockets, almost as though he was trying to tempt me with his eyes.
Dirty bastard, flirts with his secretary and any woman his eyes land on.
"No." He said as he pulled out his phone and clearly blocked me from him.
"Why did you insult him?"
"I said no."
"You think he would accept your proposal after you said that to him?" I asked in anger as I glared at him.Β
"It's my business with him alone. Don't step into your boss's business." He said, plotting to shut me out but I didn't want to.
"That was rude and I was embarrassed." I said and he chuckled as he sat up straight and stared at me.
"You were embarrassed?" He asked with a forced smile. "Of me?"
"Yes." I said as I folded my arms to my chest, having him click his tongue and lean back.
"Well get prepared to be embarrassed a whole lot." He chuckled as he rolled his eyes. "My secretary is shifting jobs and I'm assigning you as my new secretary. Make sure to always know who possesses you."
"Why do you assume it is right to possess anyone?" I asked and I could tell that the driver was looking at me through the mirror, probably surprised that Avery hasn't thrown me out of the moving car.
"Because what's mine is mine." He said coldly as he went back on his phone. I frowned at him and leaned back into the seat, feeling annoyed already by him. "Driver, to the shop." He said and I clenched my jaw as I gazed out the window.
I really love the idea of being his secretary, knowing I'll get paid fat bags of cash, but the fact that it is Avery who will be my boss is traumatizing.
