Chapter 87: Do You Love Him?



"Have you slept with her?" the boss asked abruptly.

Err…what sort of question is that? That was when I realized that Hayden was holding my hand. Wrong move. Definitely, the wrong move.

"I have," Hayden said emotionlessly.

I gasped in shock at how straight forward he could admit this…and to his father of all people. It was like they were completely ignoring the fact that I was here, and they were talking about me too.

"I see…I like men who move fast," the boss said before he laughed joyously.

I felt heat rush to my face and new that I was blushing hard with embarrassment.

"Hayden, you leave. I want to talk to Malissa," the boss said.

Hayden glanced at me as if asking me if I would be alright. I didn’t know what the boss wanted to talk to me about, but I wanted to find out. The only way I would find out is if I stayed…so…

"It’s ok…" I whispered.

Hayden nodded and slowly let go of my hand.

"5 minutes," Hayden said to his father before walking out of the room.

"More than enough…" the boss muttered softly under his breath.

The door closed behind Hayden and the boss and I were now the only ones in the room. I gulped nervously. Now that Hayden was no longer by my side, I felt extremely anxious and uncomfortable. The boss’s presence is very intimidating.

"Don’t look so nervous. I’m not going to eat you," the boss said before laughing at his own joke.

"Ok…" I whispered, sounding very nervous.

"Sorry that I asked you to stay back. I just wanted to talk to you…you know, see how you’ve been," the boss said, and I could sense genuine care in his tone.

"I’m doing fine…" I said, summarizing my situation in short. I felt fine and I will somehow get through this.

Unfortunately, or fortunately, I didn’t know, but I was getting used to being around Hayden. I wouldn’t say that I understood what he was thinking completely but I have improved, and I was less shocked with his unexpected actions. Sex with him felt too good…I’m willing to admit that too.

I wasn’t sure if we’ve gotten closer but the initial animosity between us had somehow evaporated as time went by.

"I see. How many days are left in the contract?" the boss asked.

Good question. I remembered that I used to count down the days remaining until the 30 days would come to an end. However, I wasn’t quite sure how many days were left now, and I wasn’t sure when or why I had stopped counting.

"Umm…I think there’s 18 days left," I replied softly.

"So, we’re almost at the halfway mark already. Time really does fly. So, have you fallen in love with my son?" the boss asked as he leaned forward and watched me closely.

"No, I haven’t," I replied firmly.

The boss cocked his head slightly to the side as he continued to observed me. I wondered if that meant that he didn’t believe my words?

"Let me ask you another question then. Do you think that Hayden is in love with you?" the boss asked.

"No…he’s in love with Amelia…" I replied, wondering why the boss was asking me this because he should already know.

The boss smirked a little at me before he started laughing softly as if an entertaining thought had crossed his mind.

"Why are you laughing?" I asked, unable to control my curiosity at his reaction.

"When you’re old like me, sometimes, you see young people as fools," the boss replied.

"What do you mean?" I asked, suspiciously.

"Young people, such as yourself, can’t seem to see the obvious thing that is in front of them. I asked you if you’re in love with my son and you said?" the boss said as his eyes widened at me.

"I said…that I’m not," I replied, simply.

"Exactly, which makes my old mind wonder why you looked so awfully sad when you told me that he’s in love with Amelia…" the boss said as if deep in thought.

I looked…awfully sad? Is that true?

It couldn’t be…

This old man is just playing tricks with me.

"I’m not sad…" I said.

"That’s all I wanted to ask you. You are dismissed for today. Do enjoy the gala…I’m sure that things will be interesting for both of you," the boss said before he sighed and got up from his seat.

"Goodbye," I said as I also got up.

The boss smiled at me and waved me off with his hand. I quickly left the room, glad to finally end the conversation with the old man.

"Hey,"

I turned in shock and saw Hayden leaning on the wall next to the door. I hadn’t expected to see him there waiting for me.

"Hey…" I replied back softly.

"What did dad say to you?" Hayden asked.

"Umm…nothing much," I replied vaguely. It’s not like I could repeat our conversation to Hayden.

"Did he ask you if I was good in bed?" Hayden asked, sounding genuinely curious.

Is that what he’s been worried about all this time? Oh…what am I dealing with…

"No, he didn’t…" I said as I began walking away from him.

I bet he’s just saying these things to irritate me, and it was working.

"Wait for me…" Hayden said with a small laugh as he came after me.

"What do you want?" I snapped.

"So, am I good in bed?" Hayden asked.

I couldn’t believe that he was asking me that. I rolled my eyes at him in annoyance. There’s no way that I’m going to answer that.

"What else did the old man say?" Hayden asked, after seeing that I won’t answer his previous question.

"Umm…he said that we should enjoy the gala…and that it’ll be interesting…" I replied as I recalled the boss’s words.

"Oh yes…it definitely will be interesting…" Hayden said with his eyes straight forward as if he was staring at something that I couldn’t see.

I wondered if there were some hidden or special meaning behind his words…
