Seducing The President novel Chapter 2

IRIS'S POV~

My legs were shaking vigorously as if I had just encountered a living ghost. Suddenly the fifteen metres spacious lift seemed so small to me that I felt like I was suffocating and lacking of oxygen. 

I consoled myself inwardly encouraging myself, 

" Breath in, Breath out, Iris. Everything is gonna be fine. It's just Mr President, Xavier Gray." 

Lucky he was still connected with the phone call and didn't utter any words to me except throwing those eagle eyes on me ready to swallow me whole. I frowned slightly in dilemma and suddenly recalled that president's office had network connection even inside the lift. 

But why will he appear inside my lift? Shouldn't presidents have their personal lift? 

Confusion aroused across my puzzled mind as I shifted in my spot uncomfortably clutching the ironic phone in my palm.My phone beeped once again and I chopped Daisy into pieces inside my head.Soon after, he averted his eyes from me and I breathed heavenly. 

My eyes caught the dark tattoo on his neck behind as I frown admiring the smooth artwork.The head of the dragon was crafted over his white skin so smoothly that it appeared out like a part of his skin not seemed like an artificial once.But one thought that I was assured about that he was indeed damn handsome and deserved to be call the national husband. 

Under the white neon lights of the elevator, the straight nose of the handsome face revealed a beautiful silhouette. His thin lips were pursuing beautifully as he spit out each and every words flawlessly and sometimes used English in British accent.His navy-blue suit gave off a domineering aura like a king of hell which was engulfing the whole air of the elevator gradually. 

Suddenly I felt that the elevator wasn't going too fast. 

He glanced behind to see my puzzled state and my eyes again met those blue eyes crystal clear reflecting my own silhouette into it. 

His eyes were too deep just like a bottomless vortex as if I would drown terribly into it which I didn't want. At least I didn't come in that intention. 

Finally the elevator dinged as I dragged out my heavy body before him and I was Momentarily relieved that he was still on phone. 

I just want to vanish from his gaze within a second!

As I took two quick steps ahead, a cold tone echoed in my eardrums as I closed my eyes shut in restlessness. 

Damn it.. you are dead, Iris. 

" Wait...!", Mr. President called me from behind as I turned back and found his dark face on me approaching slowly. 

I looked around nervously and found no one nearby as the elevator was built far away from the staff's room. 

I gulped down when he cut off the phone call, stuffed the brand new iphone into his pocket and stepped closer near my fragile body. 

His expression seemed horrific as I nervously looked up to meet his hazel eyes. 

He asked frowning hard, 

" Who are you? Are you the secretary handled by Mr.Scott?" 

I nodded affirmatively and parted my lips to apologise but his words interrupted me first causing my heart beating abruptly. 

He asked pointing on the elevator coldly, 

" Are you blind? Didn't you see the logo before entering the elevator? Such an undisciplined person. "

My head sank as I titled my head to see the logo blankly and damn it. 

I slapped myself mentally twice! 

How can you be so reckless Iris? You actually broke the rule at the first day of your work using President's elevator! 

I quickly apologised before the situation goes out my hands and made a 360 degree bow, 

" I'm sorry.. I'm sorry, Mr President. I was in rush. Please punish me however you want."

His expression sobered up a little as I noticed it from the corner of my frightened eyes. He waved his hand dismissively and ordered, 

" Go report yourself to Mr. Scott's office. Remember that I don't tolerate indisciplined people. If you continue being like this nonsensical human being, you will be fired before a week." 

I nodded vigorously and replied with gratitude, 

" Thank you, Mr. President. I won't be disobedient ever." 

He hummed coldly and turned away as I heard his mumbling in a low voice, 

" That's why I said, women are troublesome."

I knitted my eyebrows and cursed his domineering attitude inwardly. He could have forgave me considering the fact that I was a newbie in his office. 

I kept my eyes focused on his retreating back and felt somehow bewildered by his charm.Two people wearing presidential uniform rushed towards him opening the office gate for him respectively as his silhouette vanished from my vision behind the glass door. 

My wrist watch suddenly beeped and my eyes went wider terribly. 

Damn it! It's 8 A.M

I dragged my heavy body towards a closed door where I spotted the logo Mr.Scott.I started running towards the door bumped into someone on the way whom I didn't even bother to apologise. 

My mind was in haze as I pulled open the door abruptly stepping into the office panting heavily. I sucked some long breath and realised that I didn't even knock! 

Damn it! Bad Day Indeed! 

I looked up nervously ready to hear another scolding but unexpectedly the man on the telephone gazed at me solemnly. His expression remained calm and nonchalant as I scratched my head out of embarrassment. 

Mr.Scott continued chatting on the telephone fluently speaking in English and occasionally glanced over me. He had a handsome face, straight nose and a strange aura of a decent man. 

My mind subconsciously compared him with the president as I mentally cursed myself for having weird thoughts.
