"Adelia, I wasn't expecting to see you here" Damon said, looking pleasantly surprised, "I wasn't either" I replied faking a smile, I wanted to leave before he decides to start another conversation "well bye see you next time" I said walking past him, "wait since you're why don't we talk a bit" he said, I was fighting the disgust from showing on my face, outside of my arrangements I would not be found dead with him, "i'm sorry, I can't right now I'm busy" I said in the sweetest voice I could think of. without waiting for him to answer I walked to my car and drove away, I'm just glad he didn't touch me.
"what did you say?, she refused to see us" Mr. Maqburne asked, Veronica stood looking ashamed "I gave you one task, and you couldn't even complete it" Mr. Maqburne sighed, touching in between his eyes, he wondered how she would have acted to be turned down, without even being able to meet the lady, he should have assigned this to someone more reliable, looking up at Veronica he was beginning to doubt her being capable of taking care of the company if he retired
"if you can't get her to have a meeting with us by the end of next week, I'm going to consider keeping this company under the care of someone else" he said, "b..but father, its not my fault that insufferable girl doesn't know opportunity when she sees one" Veronica shot back. "if this is how you spoke to her I see why she did not want to speak to you, if you you're not successful by the end of next week do not bother thinking yourself as the heir of this company, you can leave my office"
"but father..."
"i said leave my office this instant" Mr. Maqburne yelled
Veronica walked out of his office, her hatred for Adelia growing, she wondered what that girl's useless company can even do to help Tidal tech, she had sent Javier to the company not bothering to show herself she didn't think that wench won't bother seeing him and instead send someone else, she was going to go to that company and make sure she shows up even if she has to drag her by the hair.
my ears tingle, I wonder who's cursing me, putting my things together to get ready to go to the golf club. it was a hot saturday afternoon perfect for golfing I think, packing the clubs and my golfing outfit, I got into my car and drove off to have a little fun, reaching the club I showed them the golden ticket and was immediately escorted to the elite dressing room to change. looking around the room it wasn't bad, everywhere was designed with black gold, it was hard to not think some items weren't real gold.
changing into the golfing outfit, why is the skirt this short thank goodness there's a short beneath, is this what Javier came here to watch every saturday, I rolled my eyes I was beginning to wonder why I didn't think that guy was a big ick, thinking about it made me shiver. tying up my shoe, I picked up my clubs and walked out into the field.
everyone's eyes were on me, I didnt know walking into a club would bring so much attention but the glares from the females aren't particularly friendly at all, well since I didnt know anything about golfing I should just sit somewhere order a drink and watch other people golf, "its nice seeing a fresh face for once" someone said behind me, turning to see who he was, I was almost blinded by his teeth shinning under the sun that I almost missed his blonde and green eyes, what a peculiar combination.
"can I help you?" I asked, clearly not intending to extend any form of help "on the contrary I am here to offer my help" he said, with a smug smile, ahhh why didn't I see it before he one of those stuck play boys that think they can grasp any girl with their shiny teeth "um yes, I think I need help with someone" I replied
"and what might that be miss" he asked, holding my chin with my hand I looked up making a thinking face "can you move a back a bit" I said, smiling he moved back, cocking my head to the right "farther" I continued he moved back again, clearly not far enough "farther" I said with my hand flagging him back, he moved farther, I smiled that's far enough, gladly he wasn't smart enough to catch on, waving at him with a cute smile I turned back and walked away, that's one way to get rid of a jerk, unfortunately I came here for another jerk, I walked past Javier just to grab his attention.
walking to the couch with the best view of the field I dropped my clubs and sat down, ordering some drinks I was enjoying the view of rotten men, harrassing females in pretext of teaching them how to golf. soon a shadow was cast on my face blocking the sun and my path I frowned "can you move away" I complained, glaring at the person standing in my presence "I'm sorry Miss Millie, but can I have moment of your time" Javier asked
"and why should I give you something so valuable?" I asked, looking him in the eye "uh...uh well it won't take long" he stuttered "that's not a reason Mr. Javier" I replied, looking at him like I was about to loose my patience, "I'll just go straight to the point Miss Millie, the owner of Tidal tech would like to have a meeting with you" he said
taking a sip of my drink I placed it back on the side table "if you want to talk to me about business, come to my office not here Mr. Javier" I said visibly impatient "then, will you like to join me for dinner soon" Javier asked. pulling down my sunglasses, I glanced at him "Mr. Javier unfortunately unlike you I do not have free time, so I must decline"I answered, I would be shooting myself in the foot sharing a meal with this bastard, my tolerance to him is already wearing off it seems I need to change location, getting up I turned to Javier "and please refrain from asking me things like that, I won't want unpleasant rumours spreading afterall you are betrothed to Veronica Maqburne" saying that I picked my clubs and walked away I was wondering why even bought them in the first place.
someone was watching from the corner with his grey eyes a, frown visible on his face.
