CHAPTER 4

LILY'S  POV :-

"All of you, get back to work," My so called new boss, Evan Paxwell, commanded loudly. And all the people working on that floor immediately started doing their own work without wasting even one more second. I guess they all wanted to remain in the safe zone and didn't want to become another prey of devil's wrath.

I looked around to realise that the poor girl, whom I saved just a few minutes ago, had already left the place and now was no where to be seen. Maybe she too went to resume her own work.

'Oh how genius you are, my Lily! Of course she went to do her work and now you too move your butt from here before the devil attacks you again,' my inner demon rolled its eyes at me.

Before I could give it a reply, someone held my hand tightly and started pulling me along with them. I looked up to realise that Mr. Devil was holding my hand in his hand and was pulling me ahead with him. Well, it would be completely a lie if I tell you that his touch didn't pass shivers down my spine. My small hand fitted perfectly in his large hand. It looked like they were meant to be together.

'What the hell are you thinking Lily? This man is bad, I mean very bad. He is nothing less than a devil,' my inner demon reminded me and for the first time in my life, I agreed with it. Well, it is right. This man is a sign of danger.

"Leave my hand. I can walk by myself," I told Evan, trying to pull my hand away from his hold. Note the word trying as I was failing drastically in what I was doing.

"Oh really? I asked you to follow me twice. But you wouldn't even take a step. I don't have plenty of time to waste on you. So now you better shut your little mouth and try to walk a bit fast," Evan told me and started increasing his pace.

What is wrong with this man? Can't he just see that I am wearing heels and can't walk fast like him? Yet he is pulling me roughly with him.

"Slow down. I can't walk fast because I am wearing heels," I told him.

"Do you really think that I care? Just move your ass fast and don't waste my time," he told me, walking even faster than before. Well, now he was dragging me like a sac of potato.

What is his problem? How can he be so rude and mean?

Suddenly after taking a few more steps, he stopped in his track, making me collide with his hard back, well which almost felt like a wall. Is this man made up of bricks?

'No Sherlock. His body is full of strong muscles, which actually make him look even more hot.' My inner demon said and winked at me. I rolled my eyes at its stupid comment.

He and hot? Never.

Okay fine. He may be hot and sexy, but still he is an arrogant self-obsessed jerk.

I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn't realise that I was being pulled by him once again. I looked up to see that we were now stepping in an elevator, or should I say a big elevator. After we successfully entered inside, the devil finally left my hand and pressed the button to the top floor. Well, I won't lie but I liked my small hand being held in his large hand. I was already missing his warmth.

"This is my family's private elevator in the company and none of my employees, including you are allowed to enter in it without our permission. I brought you here, as I don't like to ride that small public elevator. You are here just for this time. Don't even dare to enter it again." Evan told me rudely.

What the hell? Did I ask him to bring me in his family's private elevator? No, I didn't ask him to do that, so please tell this arrogant jerk to stop speaking like I am some gold-digger.

I immediately went towards the buttons and pressed the stop button. The elevator finally stopped after few seconds and as soon as the doors opened, I immediately stepped out of his precious private elevator,

"I didn't ask you to bring me here. Unlike you, I am comfortable in riding the public elevator. Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Evan Paxwell. See you in few minutes, sir," I told him and before he could reply, I went to find the public elevator. Well, it was not a big task as the public elevator was very near to their private elevator. Luckily the public elevator was currently on the same floor, so as soon as the elevator doors opened, I stepped inside and pressed the top floor button. Few people were already present in the elevator and were patiently waiting for the elevator to reach their respective floors.

Jerk! Idiot! Stupid! Arrogant! Cocky! Self-obsessed! Selfish! And the list can go on if we tried to describe Mr. Evan Paxwell in one word. Well just one word is not enough though.

"Hi. Daniel D'costa here. Who are you pretty lady? New here? As I haven't seen you in this building before," a young boy, brought me back from my evil thoughts. He looked like he was in his early twenties, and his medium blonde hair perfectly matched his skin tone. He was not muscular like Mr. Evan, but had a good body. His grey eyes fitted perfectly with his beautiful face. He was....

Wait! Did I just compare him with that devil? Shit! Shit! Shit! Yes, I did. Why am I thinking of that devil when a very handsome man is standing in front of me, trying to start a conversation with me?

'Maybe because he is not as handsome and sexy as Mr. Devil.' My demon spoke and I inwardly scoffed at it. Shut up and just go away. I silently shouted at it. And before I can do anything else, a clearing of throat brought me back to reality.

Shit! I haven't replied to him yet. Stupid me!

"Hi. Lily Jones here. And yes. I am new here. Joined just a few minutes before as Mr. Evan Paxwell's PA. In which department do you work?" I asked him and he gave me a big smile, showing his charming dimples.

Well, he really is handsome, maybe not as much as Mr. Devil, but yes he is handsome.

"I work in technical department. Mind having a lunch with me during the lunch break, Miss Jones?" He asked me.

And how can I deny those cute dimples? So of course I said yes. And before we can exchange some more words, the elevator finally stopped at his floor, which was 55th floor of the building, and he immediately stepped out of the elevator.

"So see you at 1, Miss Jones," he told me and winked at me, before the elevator doors finally closed on his face.

A smile immediately appeared on my face, thinking of his flirtatious action. No matter how much hard I tried to hide it, but it wouldn't leave my face. And before I could think about anything else, the elevator doors opened again, revealing a fuming Mr. Devil. He looked angry like he could swallow the whole world now.

Shit! What did I do now?

His gaze went to my lips and his fuming expression immediately changed to a confused one,

"Why are you smiling like a creep?" He asked me, narrowing his eyes at me.

"Creep? I don't look like a creep when I smile Mr. Evan Paxwell. And the reason for my smile is none of your business. Now excuse me," I said and stepped out of the elevator. There was a few minutes of silence before the devil finally decided the break the peace,

"Whatever. Now follow me," he told me and holding my hand again, started pulling me ahead along with him.

Oh how much I missed his touch and his warmth!

Shit! What the hell is wrong with me?

And just like before, after walking a few more steps, he suddenly stopped walking, making me collide with his muscular back, but this time I hit my nose with his back,

"Owwww. It hurts. Why can't you inform me before suddenly stopping like this?" I complained while rubbing my nose with my other hand.

"And who is she Evan?" A man's voice hit my ears.

As I was hid behind the devil's huge back, I couldn't see the person's face, but his voice was as deep as devil.

I moved a bit aside to see who was actually speaking and what I saw made me freeze in my place.

Shit! I have seen this in films before. But in reality it is mind blocking.

'Mind blocking? Seriously, Lily?' My demon mocked.

Yes, mind blocking because the person standing in front of the devil was a carbon copy of the devil. Both of their eyes were of similar colour. Both of their noses were of the same shape. Both of their hair were black and a bit curly. Both of their lips were pink, soft and kiss-worthy. Oh not that I want to kiss the other one though.

'So you mean you want to kiss the devil, Lily?' My demon asked me.

Oh no, no, no. That's not what I meant. I don't want to kiss the devil. Trust me, I don't.

Before I could convince my little demon, the devil's voice interrupted me in between,

"She is my new PA, Ethan," the devil told his brother. I mean his carbon copy twin brother. Did I forget to tell you that even their voices sounded similar?

How can their parents differentiate them from each other? I can never do that. They both looked same with no difference in their appearance.

"And may I know your name, beautiful lady?" Ethan politely asked me, extending his hand for me to shake.

Oh now I can easily differentiate them as their personalities are totally opposite. Ethan looked nice, sweet and a polite guy unlike the cocky devil.

I shook his hand happily, giving Ethan one of my best smiles,

"Its Lily. Lily Jones." I told him.

"Nice to meet you, Miss Jones," he said and finally left my hand. But I didn't miss his warmth and touch though like I missed devil's warmth and touch. Something is definitely wrong with me.

"Nice to meet you too sir. And please just call me Lily. Miss Jones makes me feel old," I told him, earning a heartily laugh from Ethan. But before he could reply, the devil decided to interrupt our conversation,

"You are not his friend or family that he can call you by your first name. So you better get used to listening Miss Jones, Lily," Evan said and trust me my breath hitched in my throat. My name sounded so sexy from his mouth. I wanted to ask him to speak my name again from his mouth.... But wait! Didn't he just tell that Ethan is not my friend or family to call me by my first name. Then who the hell does he think he is to call me by my first name, Lily?

"I guess. You too are not my friend or family, Mr. Evan Paxwell. So you too are not allowed to call me by my first name." I told Evan and trust me when I say that Ethan's eyes were popping out their sockets after hearing my words. Maybe because he had never seen anyone arguing with his almighty brother. Whereas I earned myself a scoff from Mr. Devil.

Uhhh. Did I do something wrong again?
