Hello, CEO! Don’t Play With Me!

“Why do you need my permission to get close to Giselle?” Justin asked with a suspicious look. “I’m not going to let a new person in Giselle’s life ruin it. To be where she is now, Giselle had to work hard and go through a lot of hardships. And you? Casually asking me for permission after what happened?”

“No-no. I have no bad intentions at all. I really want to be around Giselle. Support her all the way. I mean it, Justin.”

Andrew knew Justin didn’t trust easily. But he wasn’t going to give up. He said many things to convince the man in front of him, including… “I’ll help you get rid of the bad press about Giselle. I have many connections to do so. I assure you, the news about Giselle out there is only the best and achievements. No scandals. Nothing bad. But let me get close.”

“If she refuses, you should immediately step aside without prejudice to what you have said.”

Andrew blinked but then he smiled widely. It didn’t matter if Justin used him this way, as long as he had a chance to get close to Giselle. As for being rejected, that could be thought of later. “Yes. I promise.”

“A man’s word must be kept, Andrew. Not just in the mouth, but must be proven.”

“I know that, Justin. I’ll do what I said earlier and I’ll back off if Giselle refuses.”

Justin laughed. “Go ahead, then. I entrusted Giselle to my enemy, actually.”

“You consider me an enemy?” asked Andrew with a look of disbelief. “I have no malice, Justin.”

The other person just shrugged. Even so, Justin already seemed to relax his attitude compared to before. This also made Andrew somewhat relieved although he still had questions about why he was considered an enemy by Justin. He would not go back on his word. Everything was done for Giselle.

“Love can be blinding, Andrew. I know your intentions now, can they change later? Oh, of course they can. And I can’t trust you immediately just because of today’s conversation. Do you think I’m stupid?”

Andrew was silent.

“Make your words a reality for the next six months. And what you know about Giselle, get rid of it immediately. Don’t let anyone else take advantage. There are many Jillys out there and I don’t care, what kind of Jilly will come to me, I’ll slash without hesitation. Even if it’s you, who may have gained my trust, I will not hesitate to destroy you for hurting the people under my influence.”

“You got what you wanted, Justin. Take it easy.”

The conversation some time ago also reminded Andrew of Jilly’s words. “Justin gave a ransom with a fantastic amount. I wondered if he didn’t love the money he had spent. But as it turned out, Justin was able to return the money quickly and many times over. Giselle was really made into a classy model by him.”

“No wonder Justin protects Giselle so fiercely.” Andrew looked back at Giselle’s schedule. “What can I do now to support Giselle?” But before he could do anything, he had to prepare a lot of things to let Giselle know he was around. She asked her secretary to come into the room. There was something that Nindy-her assistant-had to do, in terms of adjusting Giselle’s schedule.

“Can I help you, sir?” Nindy asked once she was near the boss’s desk. Andrew handed her a piece of paper which made the assistant frown in surprise. “This is… what, sir?”

“Send the gifts at the hours I have marked. Find the best shop around Milan and try to get the gift to the person I intended.”

“A present?” Nindy blinked softly.

“Flowers, chocolates, snacks, or anything that can be sent there immediately. Anything goes. As long as it’s on schedule and continuous. Don’t miss it and slip a greeting card in there.”

“Yes, sir.” Nindy no longer asked many questions. Not because the details had already been told on the sheet, but if she asked too many questions, she might lose this valuable job. Andrew, the boss, was known for not hesitating to fire employees who couldn’t keep up with him. Not to mention that if there was a mistake, almost all divisions were blasted.

“The greeting card contains support for the recipient and don’t forget, my initials. Got it?”

“Understood, sir.”

“Then, go back to your desk. Make sure you don’t miss anything, Nindy.”

A confident and firm nod, Nindy gave as an affirmation that she would not neglect to carry out this new order. she immediately left Andrew in his room. Returning to continue his work which was quite occupying. It also seemed that the boss was again looking at the many reports that were scattered on his desk.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Left behind by his assistant, Andrew was a little relieved and imagined what Giselle would look like once she got a delivery from him. While together yesterday, Giselle bluntly said, “I don’t want to be sent the things you do, Andrew. It’s just inconvenient for you.”

“But I don’t mind, Na-oke, Giselle. I’m not used to it actually.”

Giselle rolled her eyes in annoyance. “Get used to it then. Nami is gone. There is only Giselle.”

“Okay.” Andrew laughed. “Back to talking about my shipment, I’m not bothered at all. I hope you enjoy what I send you in between your activities.”

“You know,” Giselle looked closely at Andrew who was focused on the steering wheel. Don’t let him lose focus by sitting next to Giselle.

“Brina scolds me if I eat too much chocolate. Chocolate is my favorite. But how do you know what my favorite is?”

Andrew laughed again. “What don’t I know about you?”

“You really are a terrible stalker, Mr. Andrew.”

“But I don’t have any intentions other than wanting to get to know you better.”

“Whatever.” Giselle shook her head lightly. Sitting back comfortably, she enjoyed the ride to the desired place.

It was Andrew’s belief that Giselle wouldn’t refuse any of his gifts. After all, who can resist chocolate if that person is Giselle?

Just as Andrew began to focus on his work, there was a knock on the door. Nindy entered with a downcast face and hesitant steps.

“What’s wrong?”

“Um… there’s a guest who wishes to see you, sir.”

“I don’t have any client appointments today, do I? You’re my assistant but don’t memorize my schedule at all?” Andrew asked with a sharp look. He didn’t want to be bothered at all with sudden meetings that were arbitrarily made. Unless it was urgent and could not be interrupted at another time, what could be done, Andrew tried to fulfill it.

“But, sir.”

“What else?” snapped Andrew fiercely.

“The one who wants to meet you is the owner of Unique.”

Andrew’s brow furrowed deeply. His memory was immediately drawn to the report of one of the reporters working under The Collage. News that could have shaken the business world in this country but Andrew deliberately held back. Asking him to continue to find out how true the photos were.

“Please come in then.” Andrew grinned widely. “And get her a drink because it looks like this is going to be a long conversation.”
