After Sleeping with My Childhood Prince, I Kicked Him Out from My World novel Chapter 66

<<. Miles. >>

I am sitting in my office immersed in my work. My phone pings and I cannot help but check if it’s Avery. It’s not. Avery is pissed at me, and she is pissed big time.

I tried to get in touch with her a few times since Saturday morning, and she hasn’t replied yet.

Me: ‘I had to leave for an emergency. I sent a girl to your room. I hope you met her and didn’t leave in the middle of the night.‘

That was on Saturday morning.

I had called her on Saturday evening, and she didn’t pick up my call. On Sunday afternoon, I sent one more text.

Me: ‘Are you still pissed at me? I am sorry Avery. I am not lying.’

When I read the message again, I grimace. It’s rare for me to apologize. I wish she had appreciated this rare occasion. It was stupid of me to get obsessed with her at first place. I guess it’s high time to back off.

The intercom rings and I hear Emma’s voice, “Isha is here. I have given her a brief. Do you want to talk to her first?”

“Yea. Send her in.”

Over the weekend, I had been contemplating how to deal with her. But Liam eased my problem. He told me he had contacted and informed her that he was COO & CFO at same this company. So she doesn’t get shocked or surprised when she sees him. I was hoping Isha would back off saying she is a prestigious girl and she won’t work with an ex or whatever. But nope. Nothing like that happened.

Although it was fucked up. Liam said that he handled it.

He also cautioned me that Emma knows nothing about it and I should keep my mouth shut around her.

“May I come in?”

“Yes,”

She walks in wearing a High Neck polka dot Collins Hem Dress and gives me a strange smile. I gestured her to take a seat and look at her.

“Isha…”

She blinks.

Chapter 66

“Your name… it is of Indian origin. Right?” She gives me a rueful smile and shakes her head.

“It is a common Indian name… but my mother named me after a Japanese word. It literally means stone.”

I frown.

“I hope she meant a lucky stone or something.” Who would name their own child a literal stone?

She laughs.

“Oh, well.. I don’t know. I would never know.”

I don’t want to ask what she means.

“Anyway…” I grab some files and explain to her things I want by afternoon.

“Emma will help you for a week. So you get used to the routine, then you are on your own.”

“Is she on notice?” She quirks her brow and asks.

“Nope, she is Liam’s assistant.” I tell her and see her swallow hard.

A fire alarm is going off in my head. Something is so awkward and strange about the whole situation.

“Just assistant?” she asks with a bitterness in her voice.

“It’s none of your business.”

“I don’t want to change it. I have earned it and I want this job. It will really be good for my career. I mean, what good would it do for me to work in some dingy department?”
