Chapter 49; You don’t want to talk to me

" But you look so sad.." Nicki muttered.

" Be serious, Why would I be sad at this time of the day ?" Lisa asked maintaining her forged smile.

" I was going to wonder also, I'm glad that you are fine." Nicky teethed.

Lisa teethed back.

' I must have been stupid to think about Canary in that way. I'm not really his type at all…'

She said in her head and then gave a genuine smile at last.

——

Canary had sat in his chair and he was signing some documents when he remembered what Micheal just said.

…..you have fallen in love with Lisa so much that you have started seeing her when she's not around…..

" Micheal must be mad. Why the hell would he think that I love that crazy girl ?" Canary asked.

…..A lot can shoe that you like her….

He remembered this again and shook his head.

" Now what does he mean that a lot shows ? Did I go to far with being nice to her ?" Canary asked himself and sighed,

" Why should I waste time thinking about that nonsense, I have much work to do." He said and decided to focus back on work,

——

Later in the evening it was almost time for quitting when Lisa remembered that she had take the daily report to Canary's office.

He was still inside when she knocked.

" Come in.." He said as usual,

Lisa opened and went inside with the file that she put on the desk.

" Good evening Sir. Here's the report for today." She said softly and barely looked at him.

After she bowed and turned to leave.

Canary was somehow confused by her few words and dry look.

He decided not to bother her and continued on his work.

***

That week went smoothly for Canary in terms of work and all the other things he was doing but for some reason why noticed the way Lisa was trying hard to avoid him.

Her normal smile had completely vanished from his presence whenever she went to his office to give him or work or whenever he came to their office to give him them instructions.

***

After a Week and three days

Lucy had completely stopped going to the Company as she spent most of the time taking care of Alexander.

She was having a walk with him in the compound as she pushed his wheel chair slowly when she she got a call.

" Dear, I will be back." She said and stopped his wheel chair to go and pick the call.

Alexander nodded to her with a smile. Before leaving she tightened the wheels so that they couldn't move until she returned back.

As Alexander was there waiting when he saw one of the blooming flowers from the gardens and got attracted to it. Those were one of his favorite flowers so he smiled on seeing it and then unlocked the wheel so that he could push himself.

He begun moving the wheel slowly and carefully.

His focus was on the flowers so while he moved he didn't realize that there was a small stone on the compound.

While he was still moving one one the wheels passed on the stone and in placing it the stone twisted making the wheel jump over and changed the direction.

This startled Alexander who couldn't helplessly call for help so he struggled to stop the wheel but by mistake instead he increased the speed and to make things worse where the wheelchair was now taking him was a slope so it begun slopping on a terrible speed.

His hands had not fully recovered to hold things well so he struggled in getting the breaks of the wheel.

As this happened one of the maids who was watering the flower gardens so this and opened her mouth in shock.

" Someone can and help, It's Mr Andersons.." She shouted and ran for his rescue.

Lucy who was still on the call heard this and turned around only to find Alex no where snd she saw him sloping from a distance and also ran after him.

" Honey…" She called in panic.

The maid ran as fast as she could to reach Alex in time but the slope was taking him so fast.

As this happened Alex who didn't know what to do fell in panic too and as the wheel took him he begun getting some memories.

He got memories of himself driving a car a a steady speedy as if someone was following him and then as he was driving he got hit but a truck.

Both Lucy and the maid ran as fast as they could but the wheelchair was too fast and before they could reach it reached steps and lost its balance.

As the happened the wheelchair fell down throwing Alexander out of it and the poor man fell to the side and passed out immediately.

" Mr Andersons.." The maid who had just reached called with shock and panic and knelt before him.

Lucy also reached at the moment.

She quickly knelt with both her knees and tried to rest Alex's head on her lap.

" Calls the guards to bring the car the right now !" Lucy commanded.

" Yes Madam.." The maid quickly got her phone and rung the guards.

They came and carried him to the car which after the drove him to the hospital.

——

Canary was in his office when Lisa brought the final sketches for all the designs for the different characters they had made for the movie.

" I will take the final copy and details to the Production team." She said and after turned to walk away as she has been doing recently but today Canary stopped.

" Lisa.." He called her name and she turned to look at him.

" Do you have more work to give me sir ?" She asked.

Canary shook his head in disbelief.

" I don't understand you these days. You are trying hard to avoid me." He said.

" Why would I avoid you ?" Lisa asked.

" I can see from your actions. It's like you don't want to talk to me." He said.

" Stop thinking that way, I'm have been so much focused on work. That's why I only talk about business." She said.

Canary sighed not getting her.

" If you have nothing more to say then I will leave." She said again and gave him a low bow before leaving.

Lisa went back to their Office and she had just sat down when Nicky came.

" Lisa, It's lunch time. Let's grab some food." Nicky said.

" Okay.." She got up and went with Nicky for lunch.

The workers were already there having lunch and among them was Jenny and Richie.

" You see Lisa… She's just coming for lunch." Richie spoke while they watched Nicky and Lisa get their food.

" Hmm, That little bitch. I still can't believe that Canary made her the team leader. I still wonder why " Jenny said.

" I used to tell you that things can change. You thought he would hate her forever ? " Richie asked.

" He made her the team leader because he thinks she's talented." Jenny muttered angrily.

" Jenny , Me I think more than that." Richie said.

" What do you mean ?" Jenny asked.

" Haven't you ever read novels where a cruel handsome CEO falls in love with a worker ?" Richie asked.

Jenny laughed and said. " Stop bringing your novel fantasies in reality. Canary can never fall for that brat !" Jenny assured.

" Really , Me I think there's something." Richie said.
