Chapter 207 - New Assistant Part 2



   She reached the towel and gave it to her boss then she kept scrolling on her iPad to see the latest update about their company. Moira is holding a big responsibility in the company. She even got control over PR. She\'s making sure that the update about the company is quiet and the updates should be all about their latest advertisement. 

"Water." She gave him the big tumbler and when he sipped on it, he coughs. "I put lemon and honey on it." She murmured. "Sorry." 

​​

"It\'s fine." He told. "It tasted good." 

"It\'s also good for your health." She said and turned back from him. 

   He exhaled and looked up at the ceiling. 

"You are killing me." He murmured. She turned around him and looked at him with a big question. He glanced at the clock. It\'s already six and they need to have a little dinner at eight. 

"What?" She asked. He found her adorable whenever she\'s quizzical. He glanced at her lips and then looked away. This is dangerous. Why is the heart in a mess? His mind is in a mess?

"Let\'s take a break. We got two hours to rest and then to dinner. I ate two hours after a workout." 

"Yeah." She nodded. "Shall I reserve a table for you?" 

"Aren\'t you coming?" He asked. 

"Uhm." She looked away and thought about the traffic and the house. But then, she thought about the key that Moira gave and the clothes that she bought for her and the bags. Someone settled it to the unit and maybe she would stay in the condo for a while since her boss isn\'t going to sleep yet. 

"You need to eat a little." He said. 

"Where do you want to eat?" She asked. She checked the tablet and Moira already had a reservation in an Italian restaurant. "Uhm, I\'ll tell the driver then." She said. 

"Okay. I\'ll meet you up downstairs." He said and left. 

   Natasha clutches the tablet to her chest and exhaled. She needs to protect herself as soon as possible. She went to the unit and looked around. It\'s luxurious and her life should be more than this if it wasn\'t for that day that she lost her parents. She pressed her lips and proceed to the beautiful bathroom. The bathtub is a complete jacuzzi and the shower is separate. She put an alarm and she stayed on the jacuzzi for 30 minutes. 

   She momentarily had fallen asleep and then she got up before the alarm goes off. She strode to the closet and pick the simple dress to wear. She doesn\'t have any casual here and it\'s the most casual. However, it\'s too fit and it stretches. She exhaled and stared at her body. She should be confident. She worked hard to be fit. 

   Okay, here\'s go for nothing. She put it on and then she dry her hair and put cream on her face and a lip moisturizer to her lip. She faced the mirror. She doesn\'t want to impress him with her look or hook up with him. So maybe, being with herself is enough. She doesn\'t want to get any attention at all. All she wanted was to work for money. 

   She went downstairs with her jacket and the car is already waiting outside. She got startled when James patted her head and he opened the door for her and gestured her to get in first. She thanked him and feel a little embarrassed for staying outside. 

   He sat beside her and pulled out his phone. 

"Okay, so there will be a little adjustment on the schedule." He told. "Saturday and Sunday should be off. Don\'t schedule anything those days. Besides, you are still adjusting." 

"It\'s fine." She said. 

"Friday, cancel every schedule that I have from 1-6." 

"Okay." She pulled out the tablet and put it all in cancel. Then she put it quickly in another time. She showed it to him, and he is impressed with her efficiency. 

"Always ready your luggage. We are going to Las Vegas." 

   She stopped and looked at him. He kept his eyes on his phone and talk to his sister over the phone. 

"Yeah, I already scheduled to Las Vegas. I will check on it thoroughly. Don\'t worry. When will be the next hearing? Hmm, okay. Mom is fine… what do you want me to get you? Okay. Good night." 

   They reached the Italian restaurant and she ordered the food that he usually ate for dinner. She ordered the same. James looked at her for a while. 

"So, do you like the unit?" He asked. 

"Yes. It\'s very convenient." 

"Sorry that I have to make your stay there. There will be nights that I have to wake you up on something or to wake me up if there\'s a big emergency." 

"I understand." 

"Mr. Ben will help you with the things from your apartment. Use him as your driver and I already issued a car for you. Can you drive?" She nodded. "Good." 

   The order came and she sipped on her water first and they start eating. She put the tablet on a stand so she could keep up the update. James sees how determined she was. He reached the tablet and turned it off. 

"Let\'s just eat. You\'ll get ingestion." 

"Sorry." She said. 

"Don\'t say sorry if it wasn\'t a mistake." He said. "Anyway, let\'s talk about you." 

   Her eyes widen a little and she chewed her cheek. 

"How long have you been an assistant from your current work?" 

"Two years." She answered. He nodded and indicate her to tell him more. "I work there for two years to learn and earn at the same time, but it seems like there\'s no gain at all, so I decided to search for another job, and I think this suits me." 

"Let\'s work as a team." 

   She smiled and nodded. 

"If we work like this, we will get a lot of accomplishments. That\'s how Moira and I work." 

"I\'m sorry if I ask you like this, but have you ever like her or—"

"Moira is like a baby sister to me. She\'s also like a mother on how she become strict at everything." 

   Natasha nodded. 

"Sorry for asking, I was just—curious." 

"Not a problem. A lot of people misunderstand us—but Moira is my sister." He said it like it\'s half true. No one knows his real relationship with Moira inside the company since he\'s protecting her as the second heiress of their army. 

"I understand." She nodded. 

"So, do you have any sisters? Brother?" He asked. 

"Uhm, I don\'t. I live alone." She said. "My parents died when I was ten and from that, I live with my Aunt and I go on with my life." 

   He nodded and glanced at her chest. She\'s wearing a gold G-clef with few a small diamond in the very middle. She may beloved music. Then she glanced at the man playing the piano with a smile. So, she\'s a musician. He knew how to observe well. They eat quietly for a while and then talk a little about a few things. 

   After their dinner, they walk to get their desert from a convenient store which is ice-cream and watch the street lights. 

"What\'s your favorite flavor?" he asked. 

"Macha." She answered. "There\'s no Macha there so I take dark chocolate." 

"Huh, I thought all women love chocolates." He said. She chuckled. 

"Well, I like it a little. But I am not into sweets." 

"Hmm. Okay." 

   They walk together inside and he dropped her off from her floor. He quickly removed his clothes and brush his teeth. Then he removed his clothes and went to bed naked. He reached the files and check the papers and what he saw just broke his heart. 

   He saw a ten-year-old Natasha holding a bow on her right hand and a cello on her left and beside her are proud parents. She\'s wearing the same necklace that he saw a while ago. According to her background, she\'s an aspiring musician. She\'s a musical genius. The day that her parents died, is the day that she won a gold medal and will be competing internationally. Such a tragic story. 

   He put back the folder to his drawers and lay down. Just when he closed his eyes, the current runs through his left leg veins and it\'s like his veins twisted and he knew that it\'s cramped. He panted and reached his phone. 

"Yes, sir?" 

"Come upstairs to my unit…ugh…" He groaned. "I need your help." 

"Okay." She didn\'t ask further and to his unit. She entered the code and she knocked on the door first. "Sir?" 

"I—my legs are hurt. Can you help me stretch it out?" It was painful for him that he sweated cold. 

"Sure." 

   She sat at the edge of the bed and help him stretched his leg and started massaging it though it pains a lot for him. She\'s good at massaging and when he noticed that he\'s completely naked and a duvet covered his lower part, he covered it with a pillow and glanced at her. It seemed that she hadn\'t noticed anything at all.
