FLEUR POV
How dare him hurt her?
She’s not to be hurt.
Magnolia’s too pure and innocent to go through that.
I stepped down the bed and put on my clothes, I and Mateo had another long night and I can’t wait to have more of him, Even though, it’s not right for us to be having sex but I can’t do without him.
It isn’t possible.
After taking my bath, I wore one of Mateo big tops and a tight jean before rushing out of the house.
Through the help of the cabman, I was able to locate his company immediately.
The gateman let me in and led me to the main building.
Then, I saw someone familiar walking up to me.
He’s not walking up to me directly but I think he’s coming to my direction, His face buried in his phone.
” Mateo? “I called in shock and he look up at me.
Oh my God!, It was Mateo.
His eyes widened in surprise and he moved uneasily.
” What are you doing here?”NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
” I should be the one to ask what you’re doing here “I snapped immediately.
” I’m working here, What are you doing here? ”
” You’re working here?, How co…. ”
” What are you doing here?, Fleur? “He asked again and I gulped down nothing.
” I’m here for something important, I’m here to see Maynard ”
” For what? ”
” Stop questioning me okay!, And lead me there now if you know the way “I yelled and the rest of the workers turned to me.
He didn’t even tell me he’s working here, And here am I, In his clothe, Stupefied.
” Hey, chillax, I will lead you there but do you have an appointment with him? ”
” And did he have appointment before sleeping with my friend? “I screamed, he rushed to me and cover my mouth immediately.
I took a deep breath.
” Lead me there now, Before I do something crazy “I threatened, He led me to the elevator.
As soon as we enter, he grab my hand but I withdrew it immediately.
” It’s not what you think, I can explain ”
” Explain what exactly?, I don’t have any business with you, just take me to your boss ”
” Sure, I will “He mumbled immediately.
Getting out of the elevator, we both walked through the corridor, until we get to the only door with a different design, then, I assumed that this is the room.
I barge in immediately and luckily, he’s there, sitting, looking calm as ever.
He look up at me immediately I slammed the door in a violent manner.
” Who and you and what are you doing here? “He asked dropping the pen and I scoff.
” You should take the crown because you deserves it, You’re so good in playing games, Maynard, So this is the handsome man who stole Magnolia fragile heart, And crashed it into pieces after sleeping with her and deriving pleasure from her body?, You’re so good in playing games, And I will make sure you’re going to regret this for the rest of your life ”
” And how will I regret it?, It won’t have anything to do with my career because you don’t have any evidence, or se*x tape, Even if you have it, Won’t everyone ask you the reasons why your friend opened her legs willingly for me? “He asked, looking calm as ever.
My feet wobbled, the way he talks and demonstrate his hand, there’s something special about his eyes as well, they look so penetrative, Like they stare into one soul.
Geez!, How did he sleep with such a worthless girl like Magnolia.
Sorry Magnolia, I can’t fight for you in this kind of situation.
” Can you try not to hurt her?, Please, shed so hurt, Don’t do this to her” I begged, in a softer tone, he was forced to laugh.
I got lost staring at his dimples and he chuckled.
He’s so cute when he laughs, The way his eyes sparkled and his chin relaxed.
I cleared my throat before thinking of what I have to say, Wait…, Do I have the right words to win this man?
He look so calm when he talks.
” So, you can be this calm? “He asked and walk up to me.
Maynard sat at the edge of the table, staring at me keenly.
” I have nothing to say to you, Young lady, But as long as you’re with Magnolia, I’m sure I can keep her safely with you ”
“Huh…, Keep her safely with me?, You broke up with her already ”
” If any man decides to hurt her or ask her out, I will make sure you beg for mercy under my feet, You should have a nice day “He said coldly, domineering the whole office making me stuffed up and I gulped down nothing.
” Good day sir “I mumbled before walking out of the office, with my feets wobbled.
This is the most embarrassing day of my life.
Just as I’m about to take the elevator, My phone rang, I look at the ID and it was Magnolia.
I picked it up immediately.
” I told you not to go, Fleur, I hope he won’t sack me this time around, why did you keep putting me into trouble?, Huh? “She yelled over the phone but I can feel that she’s not scolding me directly.
She’s only hurt, Because of what Maynard did to her.
” I didn’t do anything crazy, I was embarrassed so, that’s why I left “I mumbled under my breath.
” You mean he tried to hurt you again?, I think he’s not satisfied yet with what he did to me ”
” He’s so hot “I whispered under my breath.
” What did you say? ”
” I will call you back, Text me your address, I will join you shortly “I said quickly after cutting the call.
A hand suddenly pushed me to the corner and I gasped in fear and shock
Why is this place so creepy?
” Hope he didn’t do anything to you? “He asked, after I realized it’s Mateo.
I took a deep breath before replying him.
” No, he did nothing to me, Are you assuming that your boss is a pervert, and who are you to him? ”
” Nothing much, don’t worry, I got this covered, you should start going now ”
” Sure, I will leave, but you have lots of explanation to do, I’m not taking it lightly with you this time around”I waged my finger at him before leaving the corner to take the elevator.

MATEO POV
” But why did you do that, sir? “I asked immediately I entered the office and he scoffed.
“. you’re scared I might do something to your girl?, I’m not that cheap ”
” She’s not…, I mean… ”
” Since, when did we start hiding things from ourselves?, Why do I have a feeling that you’re protecting something you don’t want anybody to know? ”
” I’m not protecting her, I just want to be sure of my feelings for her before informing you, I’m sorry ”
” It’s fine, I did it for a reason, Mateo, I will explain to you later, Don’t worry ”
” Sure, I trust you sir ”
I bowed before walking out of the room.
Oh, Fleur!, I hope you won’t be the death of me.
