✿ CHAPTER 37 ✿
AMELIA'S POV
I walked out of his office angrily...although a part of me wasn't mad at him.
But what do I do now, what if he really told my dad I was with him in his office?
The day was getting dark outside.
I waited for my dad in his office to be done with his work before we headed back home...I was exhausted.
"Amelia" my dad called out to me as he walked into his office.
"Dad" I smiled
"Are you done with your meeting? Can we go home now?"
"Ok then, just give me a few more minutes," he said as he walked towards his table with assistant Zane.
He didn't ask me why I was with Leonard in his office. That was strange...maybe he'll ask me when we're going back home.
"Amelia? Are you hungry?" My dad said, still engrossed in the papers assistant Zane gave him.
"Yes I am...I'll eat when we get home"
"I'm not sure I'll be able to finish my work on time,"
"But dad-"
I heard footsteps approaching, I turned my head as I watched Leonard walk in.
What was he doing here now?
"Mr. Johnson, you're still working?" Leonard said as he looked at me.
"Yes, I am...right you're here...can you please help me take Amelia home? It's getting late"
"That's not a problem for me," I noticed Leonard smirking.
"Great then...Amelia, you can go with him"
"I can go home myself, I don't need him to drop me off" I crossed my arms over my chest.
"Amelia, your dad will probably be back home very late since we're working on the company's anniversary," Assistant Zane said.
"But-"
"It's not the first time he's dropping you off..."
"Fine!" I stood up grabbed my bag and walked out of the office.
"Mr. Leonard, please ignore her temper...she can be a brat sometimes"
"It's fine, I'll get used to it" Leonard gave a little smile as he walked out of My dad's office. I was outside of My dad's office...
"Are you hungry?" Leonard asked me as he stepped out of My dad's office closing the door behind him.
"No"
"Ok," he walks away.
"Wait!" I hurriedly ran after him...I knew he was smirking right now!
"I said wait up!" I grabbed his arm
"I, I'm hungry!" I looked up at him as he stopped in his tracks and turned to look at me.
"Oh, so now someone is hungry" he grinned at me.
"Fine, let's go," he said as he intertwined our hands.
I looked down at our hands in shock...my cheeks slowly turned red.
"Amelia!" I hurriedly pulled our hands away as I heard someone call me from behind...
"Amelia!, you left your phone on the sofa" Assistant Zane walked towards us.
Leonard cleared his throat.
"Oh, thanks" I smiled.
"You should go home early..." he said while rubbing the back of his neck.
"Amelia, let's go," Leonard said as he walked forward.
"Oh, assistant Zane, I need to leave now" I gave a little smile as I hurriedly walked behind Leonard.
"Stupid assistant" Leonard cursed under his breath.
I watched as his long legs walked ahead of me...I tried keeping up with his pace but he was damn fast!
"There is something wrong with this man" I muttered under my breath as I ran to meet up with him.
While we both walked out of the building, his Rolls Royce parked in front of us.
"Get in," he said as he opened the door for me.
I slowly got into his car as he gently closed the door, turning round to get into the other side.
When he got in "Where are we going sir?" his chauffeur asked as he looked at us through the rearview mirror.
"What restaurant should we go to?" he said as he scrolled through his phone.
"Uhm, it's a local restaurant, downtown" I smiled...is was a street restaurant where they sell street food, I hate eating at fancy restaurants sometimes, and that's why I love eating street food even when my parents forces me to stop eating it.
"Lo-local restaurant?" his chauffeur was stunned.
"Boss doesn't eat at-"
"Take us there," Leonard said with his gaze still on his phone.
"But sir-"
Leonard shot him a glare through the rearview mirror.
"I'm sorry sir," his chauffeur said as he began driving.
I noticed the tension in the air...
"Uhm, it's fine if you don't eat street foods, we can go to another restaurant," I said, trying to clear the air.
"It's fine, he'll take us there" he dropped his phone as he turned to look me in the eyes.
"Oh-ok" I hurriedly looked away as I looked out the window.
While I was looking out the window, I couldn't help but remember our kiss back in his office...It's like I could still feel his breath on my skin...I slowly licked my lips.
