Chapter 21
Taking a deep breath in I let it out trying to calm myself down, I open my eyes to meet my image infront of me who is dressed up for work with a white bishop blouse and a black skirt. Inhaling a deep breath I close my eyes ,the scene of yesterday replays in my mind.
Flashback
"What are you doing here?,"I ask aloud staring at his back as he is turned around and I'm behind him.
"He was about to kiss," he answers his voice loud and stern.
"What did you do?," I scoff sarcastically walking forward I stand infront of him.
"That's different," he shrugs his shoulder like its not a big deal.
Is he out of his mind, how come if Dylan kissses me it is a crime and what he did isn't.
"Mr Han, all these are my personal affairs and ti don't like my boss interfering in it,"
"So," he raises a brow questionably looking down at me "Do you allow anyone to kiss you,"
"I mean,I didn't like what ever you did,"
"Mr Han," I call out when he is mute, he stays silent glaring at me in anger.
"Mr Han, Why are.......,"I stutter when he keeps a step forward his glare throwing daggers at me.
Damn,his eyes are turning red and I can sse his jaw clenched,his blood shot eyes giving me goosebumps.
"Stop calling me that," he utters his voice low and rough.
"Huh?," I look at him with my eyes wide open while I step back when he keeps another step forward, my body stiffens when the cold iron grill of the bridge comes in contact with my skin "Mr Han," I found difficult to speak as my throat went dry,I gulp down my saliva looking at him who was all sweet turned into someone scary.
"I don't like repeating myself miss Anna," his low voice ringing bells in my ears.
My mind is going totally crazy ,I just don't understand what he is saying and all of these are making me tired.
"Mr Han,What do you mea.....," the letter 'n' misses when he grasps my arm tight.
"Stop fucking calling me that," he yells his voice loud and his grip tightens when I flinch while I look at him completely astonished "Call me Jackie," he blurts his voice sending chills down my spine.
He walks away leaving me there, my brain trying to analyse something.
That sounds familiar
Too familiar.
.............................
Opening my eyes I try to erase the thoughts of him,I couldn't have enough sleep as the whole night was suffocating, I'm in a place where I can do nothing and I have no idea of how am I gonna face Dylan who is waiting down to pick me up and also I'm clueless of how to react when he walks out right now.
Taking a deep breath in one last time I let it.
"You got this," I cheer for myself trying to put on a smile on my face.
Holding the door knob I pray to god that the timing of us opening the door today should be wrong, stabilizing my mind I open the door and to my surprise his door is closed. I wait for the elevator making myself ready for the upcoming situation as he can walk out at any time but he didn't.
Taking deep breaths in I blow my breath out trying to get off the tension in the air, I walk towards his car plastering a smile on my face.
"Good morning," I greet taking my seat and buckling up my seatbelt.
"Good morning," Dylan greets his eyes glued on me.
The surrounding is left in silence where I acted to search for something in my bag.
"You alright,"my hands pause and I turn towards my right to look at Dylan.
"Yeah,"I try to force a smile " Yesterday I....,"
"You can answer me later Anna," his voice comes out soft and sincere "I just don't know what got into me yesterday," he looks away facing the windscreen while I look at his side features "To be honest I've been crushing on you since we met, every time you comforted me, I felt it but I was just afraid to open it up to you because I thought it would effect our relationship," he smiles gently, holding the steering wheel he pushes himself back "I decided to do it because I would regret it later on," he starts the car and I sit back silently trying not make the situation awkward by my speech.
"See you," getting down from the car I lean on the car looking through the window.
"See you, I'll pick you up,"
"Drive safe," I smile waving at him while he drove away.
Walking out of the elevator I stroll to Mr Han's office, closing my eyes I take a deep breath and I knock at the door.
"Come in," I hear his dry cold voice, pushing open the door I walk in, standing infront of the table I pull out the envelope from my bag, I place it on his table and slide it to him.
His eyes never left me and mine never left his " I want to resign," I say sternly as he didn't bother to take the letter.
He raises his brow at me while taking the envelope,he opens and reads it, placing it back on the table he looks at me.
"You can't," he utters and gets back to work in his computer.
"It's my will," I scoff.
" Seems like Ms Anna hasn't read the contract," he blurts moving his gaze to me while I'm taken off guard.
Contract...damn how can Ii forget about it.
"I've never signed one," that came out doubtedly.
"Mr Andrews gave it to you and yitu signed it," he leans forward his eyes never leaving mine "The contract says that if party B resigns,he/she should work for a year with no pay,"
My jaw drops to the ground and my eyes came out of its sockets, how come I haven't read that rule in the contract. My brain flashes the situation when Mr Andrews asks me to sign the contract making me to rush saying that it's nothing important.
Mr Andrews is someone I trusted the most and how come he just betrayed me, standing straight I smile sarcastically at him.
"Alright,lets see," I spat walking out stamping my feet on the floor.
