Chapter 6 - The CEO's Curiosity
Liam's POV
I tossed my phone onto the hotel bed and stared out at the New York skyline. The early morning light cast long shadows across the luxury suite, but I barely noticed the view. My mind was stuck on that phone call from yesterday.
Who the hell was this woman? And why couldn't I stop thinking about her voice?
I ran a hand through my hair, irritated at my own distraction. I had a billion-dollar company to run, meetings scheduled all day, and here I was, fixated on my new assistant whom I'd never even met.
"Get it together, Sterling," I muttered to myself.
The memory of her calm, melodious voice answering my deliberate challenge made me uneasy. Most people cowered when I used that tone. She hadn't. Instead, she'd stood her ground with perfect professionalism.
And I'd hung up on her. Like a damn teenager.
I grabbed my phone again and dialed Evelyn.
"Good morning, Mr. Sterling," Evelyn's familiar voice answered.
