Dinner with a king (2)

After the meal Andrea and Adrian's assistant haven't arrived yet. It made me uncomfortable being alone with Adrian.

"It has been a long time and our assistants haven't arrived yet." I said.

"I message my assistant a while ago. She said there was an accident on the road and they were stuck in traffic." Adrian said.

"I better call Andrea and ask her if they ate okay." I said and stood up.

Adrian caught me by the hand to stop me.

"Don't you trust me?" Adrian asked with a sad face.

'To tell you the truth I really don't trust you.' I thought to myself. But I can't say that. Our company is now tied to the Montgomery Business Empire. I can't be selfish and just think of myself. There are thousands of employees relying on me.

"It's not what you think Adrian." I smiled. "I'm just worried about them, that's all."

Adrian let go of my hand immediately.

"Is that so? Sorry for jumping into conclusions." Adrian said and smiled.
