I swear to God, Eric is definitely the Anti-Christ. I mean he is so rude.i have only seen him 5 times in almost 3 months, since we got married and each time he just glares me down like I killed his cat, I mean comes on!
I was busy filling in some forms for work, on the kitchen counter. Even though I maybe married to a billionaire I need my own independence, for no woman should reply on a man. Especially men like him, so I kept my job.
"Sweetheart, it your mother-in-law on the phone for you!" Shouted Rosa.
"On my way!" I shouted back and ran for the phone downstairs.
"Hello...uhm" I said awkwardly.
"Call me Elisa, love." She said in a sweet voice.
"Okay, I will."
"So tell me Violet how are you and how have you been settling in?"
"Um...I guess I am settling in well and I am good, how are you?" I replied.
"Oh, honey I'm great. I'm calling to tell you about my annual gala that I throw to welcome spring. Please don't forget, it's tomorrow. Do me a favor darling, please drag my son out of the office."
" Not a problem, bye ." Oh, my word. She really thinks I can do that ( cue awkward laugh).
So much faith she has in me.
"Bye, sweetie." She said in a chirpy voice.
Agh!!! This day barely began and my stress levels have already hit its peak. This guy is going to give me an aneurysm.
~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~…~
After breakfast I thought I would visit Eric by the office with lunch and tell him all about his mother's request. So I had a shower and put on a white polar neck jumper and a white and black checked skirt that reached my knee, I paired them with knee high black heel boots.
So here I am currently standing in his private elevator going up.
When the doors opened I entered their sector, which surprisingly had good vibes considering who runs it. I spotted his cabin right in the back, I walked towards it but just before I could grab the handle to open the door a loud high pitched screech came from behind me.
"Excuse me madam? What are you doing ?"
I frowned looking at the slutty version of Barbie that stood in front of me. Of course this would be his secretary.
"Excuse me! Hello!" Seeing that she know had my attention she continued," Do you have an appointment?"
" No, I don't. I am here to give my husband his lunch." I said raising an eyebrow.
" Then I think you have the wrong floor. That is Mr Renorez's office you were about to walk into." She said as if she were talking to a three year old.
How the hell are you employed?
" I am aware of that fact, I am Mrs Renorez." I said to her.
She looked at me and started laughing,"Yeah right, Ma'am I am going to have to ask you to leave or shall I call security to remove you." She said with a bitchy face. Just as I was bout to reply to the life size squeaky toy the door opened.
"Thank you Mr Roger, it was lovely doing business with you." Eric said whilst shaking his hand and made their way through the door.
"Not a problem Mr Renorez, you all ways are the best company." the old man said
didn't your Mama ever teach you that lying is bad?
Before I could even say a word. Eric looked at he and I swear on the life of fuckery, his eyes darkened. I braced myself for his anger, so you can imagine my surprise when I saw a broad smile plastered on his face. I looked at him skeptically, trying to predict his next moves. He walked towards me and wrapped his muscular arms around my waist.
Did not see that coming...
He drew me into a hug. Thank God I am a good actor or that would have been one of the most awkward hug ever to be seen.
"Oh my love. I didn't know you were coming." He said to me with a smile but his eyes said a different, story more or less along the lines of ," if you don't play along, I will kill you."
In a nutshell.
"Yeah, surprise." I said to him with a slightly awkward laugh.
shit
" Mr Roger, have you met my wife, Violet?" He asked as the blonde next to me looked dumbstruck.
Haha, in your face Wheezy.
"Well, aren't you a sight for sore eyes. I must say Mr Renorez you really hit the jackpot." As Mr Roger said those words I felt Eric's hands tighten around my waist
" Well thank you, I know I am a lucky man." Said Eric with a forced smile.
"It was a pleasure meeting you, but I must leave." He said as he held my hand and placed alight kiss on it which made me incredibly uncomfortable.
pedo alert.
As he walked away , Eric grabbed my hand and dragged me into his office," What are you doing here?" he asked not politely at all.
" I came to give you lunch and to also remind you about your mother's annual spring party or gala, whatever it's called. Main point is that it's tomorrow evening and your presences is requested."I said to him as I placed the grass basket on his coffee table and took a seat of his black leather couch. I looked around at his black and white office.
Why am I not suprised?
"Yes I know but I am not—" he started but I cut him off.
"Don't you dare even think of finishing that sentence. How could you not want to go? Your mother wants you there and I mean that's a pretty good reason to go. I mean imagine the look on her face when you not there, she would be so disappointed. I don't think I could bare that, it is just—" I rambled.
"I promise, I will come if you would please just stop talking." He said me as he opened a file on his desk.
"How rude!" I yelled at him.
"Nothin I haven't heard before."
I rolled my eyes,"You know one day if you don't get off that damn high horse of yours, someone is either gonna Hit you off or you are gonna fall down but in both cases you still gonna due." I said whilst standing up, I made my way to the door.
I held the handle, turning around I gave him a big smile," but you know what, if don't Don't get off you will be doing me a big favor."
Then I walked out letting the door slam behind me with the echo of my heels trailing behind.
