โ€œAnd youโ€™re here why? This isnโ€™t a resting ground.โ€ I knotted my fingers together looking back at him. โ€œAnd pun intended.โ€

He gasped, eyes wide and I almost rolled my eyes at his acting. โ€œDid you just joke?โ€

โ€œ I didnโ€™t.โ€ My face was stone cold of any emotions, I prefer this. The more you hide the better.

โ€œThat is a joke, my dear bestie.โ€

Who the hell made him a surgeon. If not for his academics, I didn't know whatโ€™s tolerable in him. A sharp knock at the door broke our conversation. โ€œCome in.โ€

Ashton walked inside, the tab resting on his hands. I had never seen him smile or chit-chat with anyone in the company, nor attend lunch in the cafeteria. Maybe thatโ€™s why I prefer him more than any other employee.

โ€œSir, Mr Carter wanted the edited contract today itself. He asked for a lunch meeting.โ€ I looked at my Rolex and its already twelve.

I gave him a nod, and stood up from my sit. He walked out while I grabbed my coat from my seat and rolled down the sleeves, adjusting myself. Steven was too much in his phone to know his surrounding. โ€œI will be gone now.โ€

He nodded never looking up, โ€œFine. Iโ€™m will here.โ€ This guy.

โ€œSuit yourself.โ€ I shrugged on my coat and strides out. Ashton stood with the files. I ran my eyes at the clauses further added. This would help me with the Star Heaven Hotel project. Coaxing him wasnโ€™t an easy task but with the clauses and conditions I kept in front of him is too good to let go.

โ€œHave you asked David for the finance and the total expenditure report I asked you to?

โ€œYes, Sir.โ€

โ€œCall him and ask to bring in the report as well.โ€ With a nod he was gone. My eyes strained on the narrow corridor of the office, and the sounding of typing alone could be heard. This floor was just for the CEO and the assistant. And another reception of course.ย 

I prefer to work in silence.

Soon David stood in front of me but no file in his hand. โ€œI'm sorry sir. I had to leave office early last night. I couldnโ€™t complete the entire report.โ€

Anger rose in me at his stupidity. How could he keep the work aside as the secondary in his priority? I fisted my hands and my jaws set tight. I didnโ€™t like negligence in work at all.

โ€œYou may leave the company. You arenโ€™t needed anymore.โ€ I could hear his gasp but before he could start his pleading drama I turned and walked away. I donโ€™t have time for the nonsense.

โ€œAsh, hand over the entire report work to Ms Jasmine.โ€

โ€œOkay sir.โ€ I walked out and settled inside the car. I just hate when people didnโ€™t give priority to that thing which brings them food and clothes.

The drive wasnโ€™t long there. And for a fraction of a while I was reminded of the girl from morning. Was she okay now? I shook my head at the absurd thoughts. It never bothered me who was fine and who was not. Not my headache to think of.

But there was something with her that moved me a little. I had never helped someone just so suddenly and then taking to hospital and waiting. Itโ€™s so out of character of me. Maybe her battered self made me do that.

Pain and misery never affected me. You had to live with that, and mourning over it was of no use. Everyone out there is ready to pounce the moment you let go of the heavy shield protecting you.

Feel less, and show even lesser.

I walked out of my car, with Ash hot on my tail, as we strided towards inside the restaurant.

โ€œDamien Black.โ€ Ashton spoke and the receptionist was quick enough to show us the seats.

I found Mr Carter in his seat, when I joined him. We shook our hands and settled on our seats.

Let the business begin
