?Chapter 08?
Andrew’s Pov:
I arched my eyebrows in confusion.
“Girlfriend?” I asked surprised
“You heard me Andy! Go back to your girlfriend or should I say your wife?” She said as she blinked hard but tears roll freely down her cheeks.
I shook my head in confusion.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about Cristine” I said as she wiped off her tears.
“Stay away from me Andrew! I saw you at the mall with her so there is no need denying it” She said defensively.
That was when I understood her.
I burst into laughter and coughed slightly.
She looked at me embarrassed.
“Get out of my office or I’ll get the security to throw you out” She said furiously
“Am sorry! But you got it all wrong” I snapped
“I don’t need your explanation Mr Andrew… Please use the door” She said sternly
“Listen Cristine…. Zoe is only my cousin sister and I was treating her since it was her birthday yesterday” I said as she gulped
“Really?” She replied more calm this time
“Yes! Am not lying to you” I said sharply as she turned her face away again.
“I didn’t ask you for any explanation Mr Andrew…. Please get out!” She said coldly again.
Go$h!
This lady is so unpredictable….
Just when I thought we were cool.
“Here… My card! In case you need me” I said handing my card with a charming smile.
She only sneered.
“Thank you! Get lost with that” She said with her eyes fixed on the desktop in front of her.
I only smiled slightly.
I kept the card on her table.
“It’s still here just in case you change your mind and keep it instead trashing it” I said as she glared hard at me before looking away
I quickly walked out of her office.
She’s the weirdest but most interesting person I’ve ever met.
I hopped into my car and speeded it out of the premises.
My face beamed with smiles.
Does this mean that she likes me too?
I mean she got jealous when she saw Zoe?
I can’t wait to make her fall for my charm ?
Am so in for her though.
I speeded along ?
Cristine’s Pov:
He walked out of my office slamming the door.
Smiles escaped my lips as I picked up the card.
I kssed the card and giggled.
So she wasn’t his girlfriend or wife all along?
He’s such a darling! ?
He insisted on dropping his card!
Of course I wanted the card but I just had to decline in his presence.
I quickly put his card into my handbag.
I stared at the ceiling absentmindedly smiling at nothing in particular.
I was so absentminded that I didn’t notice when Dani walked in with some documents.
“Hey! Crisy… Crisy!!” She called but I wasn’t even listening.
I was just smiling.
She scoffed and looked around in confusion.
“CRISTINE!!” She screamed aloud as I flinched.
“Ye… Yes!” I answered sharply
“Duh! Are you here at all?” She asked
“Uhm… You startled me Daniella” I said defensively
“Oh please… I’ve been calling you” She said as I sighed softly.
“What do you want best?” I said trying to change the topic.
“Spare me that Miss Cristine Cruz… Why were you smiling crazily?” Dani asked in akimbo
“Smiling? Was I?” I pretended
“Tch…you know lying doesn’t fit you” She tuts
“Well it was nothing… I just remembered something” I lied
“Oh no! There is more to that smile I saw a while ago” She insisted
“Hell no!” I snapped
“Oh hell yeah girlfriend…. I hope you ain’t hiding any gist from me” She pouted her mouth as we laughed
“No Dani… Gosh! You’re such a talkative… Let me have the documents already and shoo OK” I said as we shared a laugh.
“You have a meeting with Mr Wong tonight right?” She asked
I exhaled deeply as I nodded in agreement.
“Yeah!” I said
“Do you want me to come along? You know it’s gonna be a late night stuff” She said
“Don’t worry best! I’ll be fine by myself” I said as she shake her head.
“As you like” She said winking at me before leaving.
I burst into laughter.
“Silly” I yelled at her before going back to my desktop.
? ?
I drove into the very quiet estate.
Thoughts kept running through my mind.
Why will Mr Wong choose such a quiet place for the meeting by this time of the night?
Yikes! If not for the fact that him partnering with my company will fetch us billions, I wouldn’t even agree to come to such a place.
I just need to get him sign the papers.
I drove into the quiet condominium.
I pull over and parked at the garage.
I picked up my handbag and got down from the car.
I stared around and shook my head.
As directed, I walked to the condominium and knocked.
The door throw open.
He smiled broadly showing off his brownish teeth.
I forced a smile at him.
“Good evening Mr Wong!” I said as he smiled creepily.
“Same Miss Cruz! Please sit!” He said as I sat on the chair.
“So Mr Wong let’s get to work immediately cos the time is late already” I said
“Won’t you like a glass of brandy?” He said
“No! Thank you” I said already irritated by the stench of alcohol filled in the room.
“OK… Business it is then” He said as I smiled.
“That’s good! Errr… About the contract it will be best if the two companies partner so that we can join forces to…. I said as he stood up.
He walked closer to me and I seized my breath a little.
He slapped my bu.tts and my eyes widened in shock.
“Mr Wong?” I screamed at him.
He grinned.
“Let’s just get a one night stand then consider the contract signed” He said as I gulped hard.
“What are you talking about?” I flinched.
He seized me by my hand and tried touching my b©©bs.
I quickly pushed him away and slapped his face.
I rushed to the door with my handbag but he regained balance and pushed to the ground.
He climbed on me tearing my dress as I struggled and pleaded in tears for him to let me go.
I wailed bitterly but he covered my mouth with his palms.
I was already half nked when my hand caught with a bottle.
I quickly landed the bottle on his head.
He screamed in pain and let go of me.
I struggled up.
?Greg catch that lady…… She can’t go scold free ? I heard him scream into his phone.
That per vert!
I managed to run off.
Actually I already have wounds and bruises since he gave me blows.
My mouth was bleeding profusely and my legs wounded.
I couldn’t drive my car because I feared the guy he sent could get me.
I sneaked out leaping.
I was loosing a lot of blood and I could hear footsteps behind me.
I picked up my cell phone and the only person that came to my mind was “Andrew”
From the card, I dialed the number.
He picked up.
?Hello… Andy this is me Cristine! Please help me am at Park road block 4… am in trouble? I said sharply
?Cristine? what are you… ?He tried saying but I hung up.
I kept on running and running.
My eyes was already turning.
I was becoming dizzy and very exhausted.
I kept on struggling….
I bet they could find me with the trace of blood.
“Hey… I heard a manly voice.
I turned around but I was too tired.
I collapsed…..
