En...joy your night

Ruby walked into the building with her assistant. The clicking sound of her heels echoed in the whole building. Both she and her assistant arrived at the reception.

"I have a meeting with Mr. Alderidge. Tell him Ms. Emerson is his here." Ruby said confidently trying to hide her nervousness.

"Okay ma'am."

The receptionist dialed a number and started asking.

"Sir Ms. Emerson is here and she is saying that she has a meeting with you. What should I do?" The receptionist asked.

"Let her in" Camden said.

"Ok sir.... You may go now ma'am."

"Thank you!" Ruby started walking towards the meeting room. Since she knows this building, it didn't take her much time to find the meeting room.

Camden heard a soft knock on the door and he instantly stood up.

"Come in"

Ruby opened the door and came inside.

" Hello Mr. Alderidge. It's nice to finally meet you."

"Nice to meet you too Ms. Emerson." Camden smirked as Ruby felt her cheeks burning.

The air in the room was thick and the temperature seems to rise higher. The tension was building between them but Ruby decided to cut the tension with a knife and started the meeting.

"So, you were interested to work with out company?"

"Yes, I was and after meeting you, I will definitely going to work with you." Camden tried to flirt with her.

" Sounds very interesting but we have to continue this meeting without you flirting." Ruby tried to compose herself and not let his words affect her.

The meeting went well. After the meeting ended, Camden gestured everyone to leave the room. But when Ruby was about to leave the room, Camden interrupted her.

"Not you, Miss Emerson."

Ruby paused and turned back to see Camden having a devilish smile on his face.

Everybody left the room. Camden started walking towards Ruby. She stepped back. Suddenly Camden slides one of his hands to Ruby's back and pulled her closer.

"Wh ... what are you doing Mr. Alderidge? You know that's very inappropriate to behave like this with your client." Ruby stuttered.

"Oh, are we getting formal to each other Ms. Emerson. By the way I am taking back what's mine."

"I have nothing which is yours."

"Because you are everything which is mine." A wicked smile formed on his face

Ruby held her breath so he couldn't know that how much his closeness and words are affecting us.

" I know that you didn't leave me on your own 5 years ago. I know that it has something to do with my mother. But please come back to me."

"I can't Camden. I can't. I have made a deal which I can't broke. I have to keep my promise which I made to your mother."

"F*ck the promise. I don't care about it. But please come back to me. I love you."

"What!?" Ruby was taken aback by his last words."

"Yes Ruby. I loved you from the moment you came into my life but I was too coward to admit it."

"Cam.."

Suddenly the door opened and a beautiful lady came inside. Both of them quickly straighten themselves.

"How are you baby?" The lady asked.

" What Are You Doing Here?" Camden roared.

"I came to meet you. And who is this lady beside you?"

" I am the CEO of Emerson company. Nice to meet you ma'am. May I ask who are you?" Ruby asked politely.

"Oh I am Camden's girlfriend, Lila." Lila blushed.

"Shut up!!!, I just slept with you couple of times. It doesn't make you my girlfriend." Camden shouted.

" Uhm. Well if you want you can call me his bed warmer then."

Ruby was holding back her tears by listening to their conversation. All these years she cried herself to bed whereas he....She thought maybe that MAYBE he also was missing her like was missing him but. But it's not his fault, it's her fault. She is the one who left him.

"Miss, If you don't mind, I want to take my man back to home. I have a special surprise for him." Lila said .

"I said SHUT UP." Camden barked.

" Yeah sure. I am getting late anyway." She said by forcing herself to smile. Then she turned to Camden.

" Goodbye Mr. Alderidge. I'll get the files ready till tomorrow evening. Enjoy Your Night." She said and then hurriedly rushed to the door to left so they can't see her tears which were about to come out if ger eyes.
