It was around 5:30 pm when Lilly walked into my office. “Boss time to go home,” she said. She already had her bag and jacket in her

arms.

“You in a rush?” I asked smiling at her.

“Yes actually. I have a date. You know, where you go out with a boy and have a nice time?”

“Ahhh one of those! God, I didn’t even know they existed” I replied and laughed. I got up turning off my computer and grabbing my jacket.

“You sure you don’t?” She tilted her head.

“Lilly nothing is going on with Blake and me. We living in the same building. It’s called carpooling.” I replied and turned off the lights

in my office.

“Yeah okay I totally believe you” she was being sarcastic.

I closed my door and we started to walk towards the lift.

“Well, it’s what it is so I don’t know what to tell you.” I stopped in front of Blake’s office and knocked on his door.

“Coming. 5mins” he replied.

“Right, having the CEO wrapped around your little finger is normal then? We all see it Rosy.” She replied and checked the time on her

watch. “Hey, I gotta go. You’ll be okay?” I nodded and she waved and walked to the lift. I watched her get into and then the doors closed.

I didn’t have him wrapped around my little finger. He was just a very sweet guy.

I walked into Blake’s office and he was hurdled over the back table with folders open in front of him.

“So everyone’s talking about us,” I said and plopped down on the sofa.

“Really? What are they saying?” He asked but kept his head down, studying his files.

“That somethings going on with us. That we are involved” I sighed.

“Hmm well doesn’t sound like you want something to be going on so make something up to keep them from snooping” he replied.

Was he being serious? He has been annoying me for the last 3 weeks about marrying him and now he was showing me attitude. Was he tired of asking?

Chapter 45

I got up and walked over to him. He was very engrossed in the file. He didn’t have his jacket on, his tie was sitting on his table and his

sleeves were rolled up. He only did that once he was done with the day. So many things I’d noticed about him recently.

I put one hand on his shoulder and gently rubbed it. “You don’t seem to be in a good mood,” I said and he turned around to look at me.

“I’m sorry that was mean. I didn’t mean it that way.” He rubbed his face. “I’m just tired today. I feel hot and stuffy and have a massive

headache. I think I may be getting sick”

“Well let’s get you home then. You have been overworking yourself” I turned around to grab his jacket and tie. He grabbed my arm and

pulled me back to him.

“Is it such a big issue if people think somethings going on between us?” He asked.

“Blake, you’re my boss and a very rich man. Do you know how it looks like when a small town Sales and Marketing Manager gets into a

relationship with a wealthy CEO? The word is gold digger” I replied and moved away from Blake. I turned around and grabbed his jacket

and his tie and turned off the table lights.
