You disappoint me

"Sir, your car is ready."

"Okay, you can send me the address and leave now. Oh it seems she's finally here! Listen carefully since I won't repeat myself. Take Betty along with you on your way to Elmont and drop her at her home."

"Excuse me?!"

Sebastian almost yelled when suddenly Eric gestured him to keep his mouth shut. His cold stone face immediately turned into a gentleman smile as he heard the noise of cafe door opening.

Sebastian was awestruck when he noticed two figures emerging out of the cafe after his response. While one was already asleep and snorting soundly, the other lady carrying her was on the verge to fall.

Her face had gone completely pale as if she had seen a ghost. There were creases of frown on her sweaty face and her lips were tight sealed as if she was holding a lot more secrets inside than her capacity.

Sebastian was familiar with this expression, as it was same to that of victims who falled into Eric's schemes. But that was done so since they were his enemies, how could Ayana be listed in them?! Once again his master has left him perplexed.

He, at first stared at Ayana's gaze fixed on ground, and later turned to Eric, who as expected, was standing straight with a smirk.

Although it was obvious he had pulled some tricks enough to make Ms. Ayana kneel down on her knees for him, but why would he do that?!

'Didn't he loved her? What happened when I was gone?!' the question clearly showcased on his face.

Obviously, Eric was enjoying all of this seeing his pesky little assistant puzzled. Not only did he succeed to manage two great deals just now, a very interesting turn of events was gonna bestow upon their lives from now onwards, all thanks to the masterplan he had planned.

Meanwhile Sebastian couldn't help but let himself be frustrated just as his master predicted him to be. It would be strange to not notice anything till now when it's as crystal clear as glass.

'He expects me to take young lady's friend away and let him spend the night with her just like that?! How outrageous! So much that I can't believe this is the same master I was used to serve since I was ten!

But what else can I do except follow his orders. My family vowed to serve him unconditionally when I was still in my mother's womb, and I can't bring disgrace upon my parent's will.'

Sebastian gritted his teeth upon feeling so helpless in this regard. Never once in his life he imagined his ice-hearted boss would fall so low that he would blackmail an office employee to do a one night stand with him. He sincerely wished all of this to be a dream now. But no matter how many times he embedded his nails deeply into the palm, the pain still emerged as bitter proof.

He glanced at his boss, who was still wearing that heinous smile, out of Ayana's view. His confident face showed no trace of hesitance at all.

'Nope. He'll definitely won't listen even if I insist or make him aware of his secrets. It's better if I rather focus on removing the evidences thereafter.' he forcefully convinced himself and finally handed over the car key to his master.

'Just when did it all go wrong?...' he left with a deep sigh and took Betty along with him as well, making sure to hide his frustration from Ayana. She was in much miserable state than him afterall. The only thing he could do was to apologise internally and make sure of her friend's safety.

He finally left, leaving two of them standing alone with background music still playing somewhere faraway.

"Shall we go too now?" Eric wore a gentle smile as disguise to hide his amusement and turned towards Ayana who was standing still upon seeing Sebastian's behaviour.

It turns out she came pretty late when both of them were conversing, but from the looks of it she could clearly tell something was wrong. His boss's disappointment was to be expected, but why did he still allowed them to stay behind and rest in a resort?

Does such kind bosses exist in this world?! Or could it be they are closer than she had anticipated? Her mind was busy analysing the whole situation.

'Well, Eric is his assistant so it does make sense for them to be closer. But still, not to that extend that he'll be the one dropping Betty on his way! He's a CEO of a multinational company! Shouldn't Eric being the assistant be doing that?! Not that I want either of them to help us, but even so, aren't they being a bit too generous?! Especially the boss?!'

Ayana was completely awestruck since the time when CEO of her company himself grabbed Betty's arms off her shoulders. She wanted to leave with Betty too, but apparently, Eric had asked her to stay purposely because of that wish and audio clip.

She definitely knew what Eric was doing to her is called blackmailing, but was chill from inside as she believed in her abilities to escape, and fight if needed to be. She wasn't called a thug back in her college days without a reason afterall.

She had dealt with many tall people like Eric in her past life, and knew their weak points. But being an assistant of the CEO, it was highly possible that she was rather gonna enter a combat of mind games and shuffle of words, something at which she unfortunately sucked at.

But it goes without a saying, she had to keep her cool at all times to not get advantage of, even if Eric was a trustable person in her list since they first met.

Her trust was unfathomable till now, but seeing how good he was at convincing her to stay and even had good relations with their boss, who may cover for his misdeeds if needed to be, her trust now solely depended on the wish he was gonna ask later at resort, which unfortunately seemed easily predictable.

She had her gaurds on and with a hold of courage in her heart, she replied firmly to Eric's question.

"Yes."

She said and they headed towards the parking lot.
