Alexander's POV
I felt like my heart skipped a beat when I saw that someone was hugging her and she hugged him back. Samantha drew me in and demanded that I need to look at her, but I was staring at Desiree. I let her down today; I thought the ideal plan was to let them have a half-day off and Desiree would be safe from Samantha's wrath, but Samantha humiliated her in front of far too many people on the street, and I could sense her sadness. Enrique is being a gentleman with her, opening the car door for her and driving her home or perhaps to the hospital where her dad is being treated.
I'm in such a horrible mood right now that I grabbed Samantha's arm and said, "I am done with you!" I took my keys and I walked away from her.
She yelled at me, "You can't do this to me!"
I turned to open my car and decided to chase Desiree and Enrique. I will not let her be alone with that guy. I don't know why I'm like this but this is what I feel. I want her to be only mine.
Samantha is a crazy girlfriend, but the truth is that I've never liked her and it's all lust; she's the daughter of one of my company's major shareholders, and I'm only dating her for business reasons.
Then this is all I got: she's an insane woman who I can't tolerate because she's a war freak who stares at me every time like I am her property and claiming that I'm hers.
and now she's calling me on my phone every minute, and I'm not picking up. Because she is an obnoxious wicked freak, I blocked her phone number so she wouldn't call me again and again.
I saw Enrique just dropped her off in the hospital building and left her and I parked my car inside the building.
I'm currently walking inside, and she lowered her head as she spotted me. I tried but failed to explain myself to her. I don't want to come across as a coward in front of her. I just stared into her hazel eyes, she gulped and began walking past me, but I grabbed her arm and stopped her.
"What brings you here? I was under the impression you were going with your girlfriend." she said and exhaled. I guess she is trying to be calm while talking to me. I know she was having a bad day. I want to say sorry to her but I can't, I can't let myself bow for only one girl like her.
"You don't have a right to question me about why I'm here." I said with a serious tone.
She bit her lower lip and said, "Oh really? Sorry for that."
Then her mom came and saw us. I let go of her arm.
"Desiree…I'm glad that you came." her mom hugged her and she noticed me, "And who is this young gentleman?" she said with her sweet voice.
"Ah, is my…my boss." she stuttered at first but managed to speak right away.
"Oh really, I thought he was your boyfriend." her mother joke, Desiree glared at her mother telling her to be enough with her jokes.
"So what's your name hun?" her mother asked my name. I suddenly stopped my tongue from speaking my real full name and I said, "Alexander. Just call me Alexander." I said and shook hands with her.
I notice that Desiree is blushing right now. She is playing with her hair while walking in the hallway with her mother. When we got inside, I saw how her eyes twinkle when her mother raised a one finger.
Why I feel like when her father will be awake, I will no longer be part of her life. I feel sad about that, but I want her to be happy as well.
"So you are the boss of my daughter? Thank you so much sir for being here. I am so happy that my daughter found a friend and a boss like you. You are a kind gentleman who gives her a ride just to be on time to the hospital to see her father progress." Her mother said.
I just give her a smile and nod my head. I am not going to tell her mother that Enrique just drove her here, I will just take the credit.
"Oh my god, Daddy is really going to be at home soon. Mom! I am so happy." Desiree said while covering her face with her hand and sobbed. Her mother hugged her from the back and they both looked at her father who was just sleeping on the bed rest.
After a half an hour there, Desiree finally decided to be at home.
"I will give you a ride at home if you want to." I said and offered her a ride as we already outside the hospital.
"No it's fine, I am not going with you, I am waiting for Enrique to take me again here."
"But you are not going with him, you are coming with me. Only me!" I said.
I pursued her as she walked away from me. The rain begins to fall heavily, and she tries to escape from me.
"Jesus christ! For the love of god! What are you doing?" I said.
"I am not coming with you! You have a girlfriend!" she yelled at me.
We're now bickering in the middle of the road, with no one else around. It may sound romantic, but I despise being soaked in the rain.
"Just come with me, the rain is getting stronger…" I pursued her.
She shook her head but I didn't have any choice anymore but to carry her like a sack of rice in my arms.
"Let me go!"
"I won't!"
I slap his ass for being so stubborn and shove her inside my car, she is crying now like a baby. "Why are you crying now? You don't have any idea that I don't like to have shower in the rain!" I complained to her.
"Because you never say sorry to me! I never heard you saying sorry to me. You let me down today…" she said while sobbing.
