Playing hard to get

…

"You'll attend the gathering with me. Do you have an objection?" Wayne's gaze landed on her face.

'Like I have a choice' Kaylar inwardly rolled her eyes.

"No, I'm fine with the arrangement" Kaylar forced out a smile.

"May I take my leave?" Asked Kaylar.

"Yeah, get back to work" Wayne dismissed her and began to read a file on his desk.

Kaylar's six-inch stiletto heel clicked on the tiled floor as she left the office.

The day went by and it was evening.

Kaylar walked into Wayne's office with a pile of paperwork. "Here are the files you need to sign."

"There are reports and requests from the HR department, I suggest you read through them before signing" She continued with an even tone.

"Okay, let me have it" Wayne stretched his hand towards the file.

After handing the file over to him Kaylar left his office.

…

Closing hour.

Wayne glanced at his watch before putting off his computer. He straightened his suit before walking out of his office.

He walked towards Kaylar's office and knocked before entering. "Kaylar pack up, we are heading out."

"Oh my goodness you startled me" Kaylar hands were defensively placed on her chest as she looked at the intruder.

She calmed herself as she packed her bag. Then they both left the company.

…

Outside a high-end boutique.

Wayne and Kaylar were led into the boutique by the manager.

"Good evening Mr Wayne" the boutique manager greeted. "The outfits you ordered are ready. Would she mind trying it on"

"She can try them on" Wayne replied and headed towards the lounge area.

He was quite familiar with the boutique because he owned the place.

"This way miss" The boutique manager led Kaylar into the changing room"

…

Kaylar looked at herself through the mirror with a dissatisfied expression.

"Who does he think I am, how can I possibly wear this?" Kaylar said to herself.

"Miss, do you need any help?" The boutique manager asked because Kaylar was taking too long.

"I'm fine," Kaylar said as she moved the curtain aside and walked out of the changing room.

The boutique manager was dazed as he saw Kaylar's figure. He silently chided himself. "Miss, you look stunning. What's left are your shoes, you may have a sit I'll go fetch them"

The boutique manager opened a box and brought a shoe out before making his way to Kaylar.

He lifted Kaylar's porcelain legs and wore the shoes on her feet.

He gave her a hand as she stood up, and then he led her to the lounge area where Wayne was waiting.

Inside the lounge.

Wayne was sitting on a sofa with his attention on his phone, he raised his head when he heard footsteps coming towards his direction.

He saw the boutique manager leading Kaylar into the lounge.

"She's ready" the boutique manager announced.

Kaylar stood in front of Wayne with her heart pounding as if it would fall from her chest at any second.

For a minute amazement flashed past Wayne's eyes as he looked at Kaylar cooly.

Kaylar was dressed in a white off-shoulder faux silk shirt with a lowered neckline tucked into a thigh-high black mini skirt.

A Brynn layered lariat necklace hung carefully on her dainty neck.

The outfit outlined Kaylar's curves in the right places and showed her assets off.

Her slender waist and fair thighs stood out. Her skin was as fair as snow and her neckline was beautiful.

She looked professional yet elegant. Her charisma equally matched the style of the outfit.

Wayne controlled herself from taking a few more glances at Kaylar before standing up. "Let's go."

Kaylar uncomfortably walked out of the store as she tried to lower her skirt.

She wasn't used to showing much flesh outside.

When they entered the car and bulked up Kaylar couldn't help but say, "Wayne I don't feel comfortable with the length of the skirt."

Wayne looked at her and said autocratically, "This is still working hour for you and I have a say in what my secretary wears"

Kaylar had a distressed look but kept her mouth shut.

…

After an hour Wanye pulled up at NiteShift. It was a prominent clubhouse for the rich and famous in Country N.

Social gatherings were organized primarily for business dealings and cooperation.

The only reason Wayne accepted the invite was to solely torment Kaylar.

"CEO Wayne, you made it" Mr Bernard came over to greet Wayne when he sighted him.

His gaze moved to Kaylar who stood behind Wayne.

Kaylar unconsciously shuddered as she met his lecherous gaze, she swallowed her disgust. "Mr Bernard nice to see you again"

Kaylar offered her hand for a handshake which he took without any reservation, he rubbed his fingers against Kaylar's hand and smiled frivolously.

Mr Bernard released Kaylar's hand and faced Wayne "What a lovely secretary you have, yes?"

"Indeed" Wayne answered leisurely.

He was then led to a private room by Mr Bernard. A young lady who was dressed suggestively sat comfortably on the sofa as Wayne and the rest walked in.

"CEO Wayne, this is my secretary Natasha" Mr Bernard introduced.

Natalie walked towards Wayne's and stretched her hands out for a handshake, "Good evening CEO Wayne."

Wayne nodded his head and ignored her outstretched hand, Natasha looked at her outstretched hand with embarrassment and slightly glared at Wayne.

'Playing hard to get huh, let's see how long you last' Natasha thought as she went to sit next to Mr Bernard.

"CEO Wayne, I submitted the proposal to your company did you get it?" Mr Bernard asked to clear the awkward atmosphere.

"Yes I did and it was quite impressive, the contract will be sent over to your company by Monday" Wayne replied.

"That's great" Mr Bernard was visibly excited.

"Let's make a toast then" Mr Bernard suggested.

"Sure" Wayne replied, as he glanced at Kaylar.

Kaylar sighed silently, "Mr Bernard I'll take the toast on his behalf"

"That's unlikely, but if you if you insist I won't go easy on you" It was clear to everyone in the room what Mr Bernard's intentions were.

Kaylar took the first shot which passed through her throat with much difficulty.

The burning sensation increased as Mr Bernard kept pouring cups upon cups of shots for her.

Kaylar's eyes reddened slightly as she looked at Wayne with a pleading gaze.
