Chapter One Hundred And Twenty Six - Business Lunch

The slut tried pushing Caleb to get to me, face red with anger, I stopped and really looked at her face.

Screwed up, her eyes full of hate, her hair falling in strands in front of her sweaty face that dripping with make up.

Frowning, what the hell happened to her? Is she always like this?

As I tried figuring her out, two male workers came to assist Caleb in trying to settle her but she was so strong. I felt that her hate added extra strength to her, slim figure.

Adian, Jerry and Basil arrived at the same time, with the slut crying out his name, trying to release herself from the held Caleb and the two workers had on her.

"Adian, please, I only came to see, but you that" she turn fierce eyes in my direction, "slut, tried to attack me" she spat, before turning to cry in front of Adain and the few worker who had gathered around. I'm shocked at the way she instantly shifted from threatening me to turning the tables around, making herself out to be the victim.

I shook my head in disgust and walked closer, with Adian coming to shield me, "if I wanted to attack you," I smiled, in pity at her pathetic demeanor, "you know you wouldn't be standing" My face expressionless, I heard Caleb chuckle beside me.

Adian, held my arm, as two securities arrive. They held her and the two workers release their hold on her. As they escorted her away, she turned around to glare at me with contempt.

"Your room in the mental hospital, is already booked," she spat. "And we'll make sure you go back there, if it's the last thing we do!" She shouted as she was whisked away.

Taken aback with her threat, did she just say 'we'?

I glance at Adian, whose eyes were full of concern and fear, but I smiled reassuringly, nodding for us to move along.

"Wait" Caleb called out, as we were leaving. "One question" he says looking at the workers in the corridor, "did anyone at any point in time, see Mrs. Knights attack or try to attack, uh" Caleb pauses as he fumbles for her name and not remembering, he continues, "uh, the crazy lady just now?" He looks around and everyone was silent as they stared at each other.

"Anyone?" Caleb asked again and I butt in casually.

"Maybe I'll simply put cameras in the corridors, in case it happens again," I chuckle.

The men who helped Caleb hold her down, laughs softly, turning to Adain and Jerry, "no sir, Mrs. Knight was behind Caleb, who was protecting her." One of the guys who chose to speak said and the other nods. Since they were there first to help Caleb, nobody else's words mattered.

Once again, my office was packed and I realize if this is going to be a meeting point, Caleb and I need to shop for more than just a dress.

I missed breakfast and that client, kept me back for so long that I am actually starving. I was about to mention it when I saw Mel coming out of the kitchen with a plate of Chinese for me.

Smiling gratefully, I walked into the bathroom to scrub my hands clean from the creep Mr. Shaw's touch.

I joined Mel who was still dishing out food for everyone and I helped her till the seven of us were sitting around eating quietly with no mention of all the drama that unfolded so far today.

Looking up from his plate from where he sat on the opposite side of my desk.

"How was the meeting with Shaw" Jerry asks casually. My eyes instinctively flew to Caleb's. I can see from his expression that this is not, a conversation he wishes to have right now after being accosted by the slat a short while ago.

Changing the topic, Caleb ignored Jerry's question and turned to Adian, "so boss the missus, mentioned, she needs a dress for something or the other tonight so, of course I volunteer to help her, shop." Caleb informs Adian, who pauses with his fork in the air to look at me.

Adian, turns to Basil and he looks at me and I suddenly knew that if I didn't mention the creep from the meeting he would.

I turned to Jerry, "I'm sorry, but I didn't offer him a contract with SullaKnights" I felt Adian's eyes on me, compelling me to look at him, but I stubbornly refused keeping my eyes on Jerry.

Jerry frowned at me and I heard Adian speak, "so is someone going to tell me what the f*** happened because you were in the board room for more that an hour for a deal that was already set to close." Adain asked impatiently and I didn't look up to see if he directed his question to me.

"F*** guys, really?" I head Basil shout and I looked up with a smirk, noticing Caleb's expression matches mines.

Glancing between Caleb and I, Basil shakes his head and starts speaking, "the f****** ass***e was hitting on your wife and kept stalling and refused to close the f****** deal." Basil said angrily, taking a sip of the beer he was drinking. "I nearly had to drag him out of the conference room, because he wanted to take her out to lunch. He's lucky I didn't kick his f****** ass!" He finishes annoyed now, while Caleb laughs softly at him.

Adian nods thoughtfully and lifting his beer bottle, pointing to Caleb and I, before nodding to Basil, "so if Jerry didn't ask, who was going to mention it" Adian, visibly annoyed asked and I decided to take this one, because I don't need a babysitter and I figured this one was easy.

"You would have been informed, after we are done eating. I didn't realize that we're having a business lunch." I smiled apologetically at him and Jerry.
