Am I dreaming or why suddenly Nemaly is saying crazy things? I have an assignment. Since when? I looked at Nemaly after she tried pulling my hands and drag me out from my stool, when my other hand was being pulled by Damien.
"I actually would like to speak with your friend here for a moment. Would you mind?" he asked looking at Nemaly and back to another man. That's when I realised, he was here with his friend. I only caught his name as 'Mr Reid' since Nemaly just mentioned that. Now, Nemaly is starting to flush. Does she actually like this 'Mr Reid'? She would've told me, won't she? I just look back and forth between Damien and Nemaly, and eventually she let go off me.
"Sure Mr Owen. Nadia I'll wait here for you," Nemaly whispered the last few words to me before Damien held me and pull me away. I turned to look at Nemaly after I was a few feet away from her, noticing she looked rather shy and helpless.
"You need something from me, Mr Owens? How do you actually…."
"Shh. Watch this," Damien told me to look at Nemaly and his friend having a conversation as a start.
"You see, my friend actually likes your friend since the day she first joined my company. And don't pretend like you know what I'm talking about. Yes, I am the CEO of Knight Enterprises before you asked questions." It feels like he could read my mind that he has answers to all my unasked questions. I was stunned, speechless as to what I am supposed to say next, so I just kept my mouth shut and hear him out. The least he could give me is an explanation, right?
"After earlier, you did something to me. Because you approach me, I can't keep my mind off you. You make me feel something, Nadia. Something I am afraid of expressing," Damien said while looking at me intently. I was startled. Where is this coming from?
All I asked was a help from a stranger to get away from my ex-boyfriend and I did something to him. I was starting to feel a little afraid of his confession because I don't think I am ready for a relationship after broke up with one.
"I'm sorry if I made you feel a certain way. I was just looking for help and you happened to be there. I'm sorry for leading you onto something, Mr Owens," I tried to calm down my nerves and make sure my mind says the correct answer.
"Damien. Just call me Damien. I'm sorry for jumping the gun at you. I didn't mean the sudden words. But I do need your help. Will you come with me?" Damien asked me while looking at Nemaly and his friend. I was sceptical of leaving Nemaly alone with a stranger, even though she knows the man.
"I need to get back to my friend. I came with her, so I am leaving with her. You need to go home, Damien," I said with resolution because one, he is still a stranger to me. A stranger that I really want to kiss so bad. And two, I don't have the keys to Nemaly house, and we literally drove here together, so how am I supposed to follow him without her. I pushed Damien slightly and started walking towards Nemaly when he grabs my hand and kisses my lips. Now, I was starting to get angry and shoved him.
"Are you crazy?! Mr Owens, you need to have better manners and stay away from me," this time I was screaming at him and started walking away.
