The Masquerade ball

After hanging up the phone Ava decided to take some tart for Oliver to his office.

"Mrs. Lee, could you help me pack some egg tart and tea for Oliver? He asked me to go to the company and I want to take them with me."

Mrs. Lee quickly stood up and said happily, "OK, I'll do it right away."

Ava went upstairs to get ready. She looked in the mirror, put on some light makeup, and picked up some casual clothes that will look good on her. She didn't know when she began to pay attention to her appearance. She wanted Oliver to notice her.

KNIGHT International.

Ava walked inside the office so casually as if she had been here countless times and everyone was already familiar with her. They all greeted Ava warmly and called her Miss Green. Ava knocked on the door of Oliver's office.

"Come in." His magnetic voice came from inside.

Ava pushed open the door. This was her second time in his office. She felt both familiar and unfamiliar in the place. Somehow she was having a feeling like, she came to see an old friend that she hasn't seen for a long time.

Oliver was sitting at his desk with his head down looking at some documents. Ava walked slowly.

"Hello CEO Knight, I'm here." Ava stood on the other side of Oliver's desk and said gently.

Oliver raised his head hearing Ava's voice and his eyes fell on the bag in her hands. "What's on the bag?" Oliver asked casually.

"Dynamite," Ava said jokingly.

"You have a negative IQ, I am afraid you won't be able to manage it with that IQ." Oliver smiled coldly and said sarcastically.

Ava pursed her lips and stared at him for a moment then said, "Do you always look down on me like that? If I knew before I would not bother to bring food for you."

Oliver put down the pen he was holding and smiled thoughtfully, "So you care about me so much to bring me food?"

Ava rolled her eyes and said annoyed, "No, these are the leftovers I couldn't eat. I was going to throw them away but since I was coming here I brought them for you."

Oliver smiled but did not speak. He raised his chin and motioned for Ava to take out the food from the bag. Oliver could eat whatever he wanted and whenever he wanted but the thought that Ava cared about him enough to bring afternoon snacks from homemade his heart filled with joy so he would definitely have it.

"Feed me," Oliver ordered.

"Why? Don't you have hands?" Ava asked annoyed. Who does he think he is that I have to feed him?

"I have hands. Do you want me to show you?" Oliver raised his eyebrows slightly, and there was a warning mixed with mystery in his light tone.

Ava was not dumb. She knew his temper very well and she even started to understand the hidden meaning of his words. Of course, she wouldn't dare to provoke him. With a smile, Ava came to Oliver with Egg tart in her hand.

Oliver suddenly pulled her and made her sit on his lap. Ava did not struggle, two people looked at each other affectionately.

"Open your mouth."

"You will have to kiss me to open my mouth," Oliver said with a mischievous smile

Ava felt helpless thinking he was so childish, but she still kissed him softly.

However, how could a soft kiss satisfy Oliver, like a hungry wolf he devoured Ava's soft lips. Oliver thought the taste of her lips was a thousand times better than the egg tart.

Ava's whole body went soft. She didn't resist at all. It says when you give your heart to someone you would not have the strength to resist his touch anymore. Ava felt the same way, she couldn't refuse him in fact she wanted him.

After a long time, Oliver let go of her and began to eat egg tarts slowly.

"So Mr. Knight, why did you ask me to come to the company suddenly?" Ava asked when he finished eating.

"I have to attend a business event tonight and you'll accompany me to it," Oliver said with a smile.

Ava was confused. "Me? Why?"

"Who else do you want me to take?" Oliver was very unhappy with Ava's question. She was his woman so isn't it normal that he would want to take her with him?

"But... But we agreed not to disclose our relationship?" Ava said a little embarrassed.

Ava thought Oliver was a public figure, everyone knew him, if she accompanied him to a business event then she will be on the headline tomorrow. Which will obviously bring more complications to her current situation. Besides she didn't want to be the target of thousands of women's hatred.

Oliver narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "It's a masquerade theme party, everyone will be wearing a mask to the party. So don't worry no one will recognize you."

"Oh, ok." Ava agreed thinking no one knew her, so if they were going to wear a mask then how could she be recognized?

In fact, the party was not themed, as Oliver decided to take Ava with him he especially proposed to make it a Masquerade ball party. Everyone must were a mask to attend. It will give people a mysterious feeling and make them more excited.

Around four o'clock, Oliver led Ava out of the office. Everyone greeted them and went back to their work pretending not to see anything. KNIGHT International had a strict policy, every employee must sign an agreement contract with the company, which said they wouldn't be able to disclose any personal or professional information related to the company or the CEO to anyone. If they do, they would have to bear a lawsuit with heavy compensation.

Ava didn't know about this policy so naturally, she was very uncomfortable being seen with Oliver. When they got into the elevator Oliver put his arm around her waist and held her close to him.

"Where are we going to the party? I am wearing casual clothes these are not suitable for parties, I think." Ava said worriedly. She didn't know about the party, so she wore a very simple white T-shirt and a pair of cowboy shorts when she came to see Oliver.

Oliver looked at her with despair, "You think? Of course, these clothes are not suitable for a masquerade ball. People rely on clothes at this kind of party, not to mention that you are so ugly and have a horrible figure. Obviously, you need a beauty expert for a makeover."
