" WOMAN" she heard him say that, and it amazed her hearing it from him. but that wasn't the thing she expected from him. she was willing to pull her patience in waiting for his explanations but if this was getting out of her reach, she won't spare a minute to make the worst of it. Chris knew what exactly he intended to say or do for his coming here, but it took all efforts and all master's mind to put this woman on track. he just couldn't find a better way in saying it, than making it so direct. but how could he, it felt like a trauma torture for him to propose a marriage from another woman after the incident of his dead wife.
" I believe your not only here to call me woman and say nothing after it." molly said solemnly to Capture back his mind, since he seemed to have taken it off unconscious.
"I don't look friendly and neither will I."
he said after taking a long breath out, still keeping his posture on hers, he continued.
"I know, you know, what am here for."
slowly he uttered each word with the stressing mark assuring what he just said. and right when he was about to say something else, molly cracked in
"Ooh, marriage proposal!!!, I pray you know who your talking to."
"well, I pray you keep your eyes on me." he said with his deep likely not hoarse but strong voice and blunt enough.,to make Molly's little fingers grasping the crystal glass recklessly to stop on it's moves, and the eyes that she locked on the glass before, shifted it's gaze to his face. 'what.,' was he commanding her, was it a request, well, she was finding this too demanding and it seemed not getting to the best of it. Molly never changed her expressions rather gaving him what he recommended.
"your family must be so harsh too push into this side,or should I say your the tragic itself.. knowing you won't get anything from it."
she said, looking upon to what he will fish out from his mouth. willing to utter something, but his lips held up tied together as the words he was about to say quickly flashed back to his mind and resisted his action of response to her. chris, who pulls all of his thoughts together at a time, trying really hard to mask the displeased atmosphere that his face complimented, at what molly had say. maybe she was right, and he was the tragic itself.. nothing better had fallen to his side,only ending up sad and being a mishap to his family.
looking at him, molly could tell how hard it was for him to bring himself into braveness, yet his heart had hold thousands of cracks that need to patched. though his expression was well hidden, from somewhere molly felt something so different. it might not be her first time encountering such a mood from a person, she just couldn't tell either it was her pity on him that over whelmed her or that sense of enthuse that crossed upon her on him being this strong for his family.
"since I do not know better, I won't put much of my concerns in this." she said politely before placing the glass back on the table and stirred her skeletal living body from the seat, raising to take her leave. considering it was just their first meeting, she didn't bother acting to know much about him. then followed her back that had already registered the eyes of chris on it, molly who was yet to take her second step desist her walk after the pinnacles of her ears vibrated the sound waves striking her ear drums to then finalize the words
" About the proposal." that came direct from Chris.
yes., she was expecting this, not the proposal but that urge of persistence of his that carried no strand of fear. of course she didn't know him better, but if it were in a one way there to know him, it began from this. being her looking forward with him facing her back, she smirked.
"Am....."
" Disregarded the proposal Mr.wang." she intervened with her strong like authority voice before he could speak another words. straighten up to her point. she continued
"I do not do the absurd relationships.and I hope you understand."
it was enough her being aromatic, taking another relationship is totally out of her mind. she was not, and not and never will get interested in love. she thought for her whole being like that. Chris knew this, not that he didn't. just who was he to make this so simple out of this woman. her words were so clear not needing a repeated higher volume for him to hear and understand., Inwardly he mocked himself, lately before molly could say that. his mind and mouth prepared to propose something else., thinking of it to be a friendship proposal rather than the marriage. how stupid of him to firstly tell her, he was not friendly and neither would he. yet his mind was here cheating him with more than a fooling words of this, if only molly didn't say it first, he surely would look dumb to deserve not even the friendship request.
pulling up his body from his seat and stretching his hands to place them into his trouser pockets. chris slowly let out his breath, maintaining his natural facial composure.
" I wasn't going for the marriage." he said, and molly who first intervened within his lately unspoken speech felt dejected, 'so was she wrong.!'.
"you should know, it's all about business that I came here for. about your interest in affairs it's all up to you. if it's wasn't for my family I wouldn't be standing here too," he paused for a second and then,
" I mean, you wouldn't understand what it means to stand up for a family, since everything you want ever falls to your side..I wasn't going to say this, but yes, am neither interested in such contracts but if thus what it takes I would do it.be it you or the other one."
he said it all so clearly, well volumed and marked. lizzah who had heard everything was taken aback by his confidence, not only that but also, the will her boss had taken to keep her posture into listening him. if one knew molly better this would be said as an act of kindness, this woman had pride enough of not taking down her steps on anyone,but now her long legs were stepping the same ground she wanted to walk away from before chris pinned them down.
it might be the day itself was lucky, thought lizzah. that he definitely could bring molly to listen to him. sparing such a time to someone who would definitely get nothing from it. lizzah would only pity the man who stood strongly behind them. because she knew well what type of a person her boss was. not that she wasn't kind, just that she never really cares for some matters and when she says something, she indeed doesn't give a damn fuck.
chewing it all, molly brought it all into sense. he is a businessman, and he knows how to play well with his words. it would definitely look like an insult or anything to deject one's standards. but she too was great in business. he technically use his words to get back at what she didn't have so as to bring her pity or consideration of the other side, "Chris' side". knowing molly was one on one who lacked a family by considering the lost of her parents and left with an unknown so called sister, chris gave this one a shot.
As he had said it out before, it would take him anything to hold the falls of his family then if this shot got it's target in molly, he was into it even if it felt nothing.,but little did he know, this woman was cunning, she is the last generation of the Master minds itself.
Molly turns her back and walks towards chris. standing only a little distance from him. despite her heels, she still owes some inches of height to christian whose body feature went slight taller than hers by then.,she looked direct into his eyes, showing him, her nerves and expressing her grounds, and voiced out.
"it would be perfect having you as my servant., Mr.wang"
she said, keeping that professional look on her face. where chris' eyes suddenly narrowred, trying to pinpoint what she just said.
"lizzah, get a contract ready, tomorrow mr. wang will sign it, if he wants to." she ordered still locking her gaze on him, reading each and every move on his face. Off course it all read confusion, what was this.! a joke,hell no.! she isn't a type of bringing up jokes. Did she just say making him her servant, she is insane,..coming to think of it, him, Christian wang, quite known noticable noble. definitely turning into a servant. that would be the last thing hell would definitely come up with. it isn't like he came for a job application or anything that directly meant to be her worker.
having being patient enough for the day, molly turns her back and walks out of chris, whose gaze didn't seem to be ending any time soon. it was he who went for a proposal, yet again it's him who ends up deciding to either agree to sign the contract or not.
