Thank God Layla doesn't know what's up, I mean, who would want to hear their son talking such vulgar language.
"Kez-" I went to say something but cut myself off when I felt a tap to my shoulder.
I turned around and saw a male worker standing there with a wide smile on his face.
"Hey beautiful" he said showing me his pearly white teeth.
He's smiling so wide that one would think he's showing his fangs if he was a vampire.
I removed the phone from my ear when I didn't hear any response from the other side only to find the call cut.
No! Kezr don't leave me with a stranger.
I took a deep breath and looked up at the worker faking a smile. But Iam sure it looks like Iam constipated as I can't for the love of God, fake a smile.
"Uh... Hi..?" I said feeling unsure of what to do.
I feel like an introvert right now.
Babe... We are an introvert. No need to feel it.
"Hey, so...I was checking you out-" I couldn't listen to anything after that as my brain blocked his voice.
Checking me out?
"So... Will you?" What?
I shook my head confused at what he said and I met his eyes to see his pupils dilated.
"Uh... Sorry, what?"
He chuckled, but his chuckle didn't effect me one bit like how K's does. I just blinked at him wanting to go to my Kezr.
"Gosh, you're cute....... And beautiful." He said while coming closer.
"I-I" I backed away and my back hit the wall.
Not the time to be trapped between the walls like those female protagonists in a romance scene!
"I said, Can I get your nu-" He begin only to cut himself off and to look at my chest.
Pervert! Kezr is gonna maul him!
I looked down to where his eyes were and saw him looking at my chest.
He suddenly looked up and said, "You're married"
And that's when I realized that I have my arms folded across my chest and that he was looking at my ring.
Workers nose or Kezr's hand?
I didn't think much and went beside Kezr and took his hand in mine to examine it. After examining it for ten seconds and finding his hand and knuckles normal I went to the worker and picked him up.
Aria, Maria and Layla had Kezr held back because he looked like he was about to pounce on the poor male worker.
"Ah dude, what the fuck?" The worker complaint while touching his nose which was bleeding badly and is definitely broken.
Kezr just clenched his jaw and moved forward while balling his fists but I rushed to his side and kept my hand on his chest.
He looked down at me, more like glared.
"Kezr, baby, he didn't do anything, stop it please" I said while blinking away the tears that gathered in my eyes.
But Kezr's eyes didn't soften and he said, "He called you beautiful"
Oh, I get the problem. He doesn't want anyone to lie to me. Okay.
"Sorry, but it's not his fault that what he said turned out to be a lie." I said and removed my hand from his chest and held his hands.
Aria and Maria backed away and Layla looked at the worker and said, "Poor boy", she looked at Kezr and smacked his head. "Kezr! You didn't need to be such a dumbass and hit someone like that!"
Kezr just took a deep breath and went to say something to the worker when suddenly the worker raised his hand in surrender and said, "Dude calm down, Your wife, fiance, not wife, whoever she is, told me about you... And let me tell you she didn't lie when she said you'll break my bones."
