Episode 23
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.
