Chapter 48 - Stupid CEO 1/2

"Sir, a woman has arrived with the card of our company and is requesting that she has some important words to have with you."

The girl down there on the reception desk informed my PA who was originally an employee in another department but I appointed him by my side in Syna's absence, who was making me aware, standing with hands on the butt.

"Oh! yes. Send her directly to my office."

I ordered him strictly placing my files away, I could imagine his hands still shivering. 

"And Mr Rhodes I believe you will not do such a mistake again."

My PA did a terrible mistake today he made my morning coffee not fully blend! Maybe I was being cocky but still it's my office and I play by my rules.

"Yy-yes boss I understood."

Even his voice was shaking like his body. I believe his skin was tingling with goosebumps. I know I was known as a merciless man in business circles. 

I tend to fire people on small mistakes but I could not do that with Mr Rhodes as he was an excellent assistant with all good qualities, neatly dressed and efficient man. On the top he feared me the most.

[KNOCK KNOCK]

The door of my office banged and I was aware of who it could be, my bride, my beloved Syna. I knew would come directly to me after I ordered and banned her from visiting the orphanage. 

I did not want to show her how much I needed her presence in my life, so maintained the air normal and full of self confidence which I was not lacking in any way.

"Come in."

I reacted to her knocking.

The door opened slowly and she appeared in my sight with a smile. She was wearing a shirt in hoodie shape, and blue ripped jeans and I could acknowledge those clothes, that pair was from the wardrobe I personally set for her.

Her hair was a little dishevelled but with her beautiful features those naughty strands dangling out of her french tail were only adding beauty, she completely enthralled me.

"Miss Syna, you are showing up today and vanished without even bothering to inform us?"

I called out her name as if was complaining as her boss. I wondered if she was really that stupid to narrate me the whole thing.

Her eyes were glued to the nameplate which was on the table was clearly showing my name in capitalization. I could clearly see that soon her face clearly grimaced with disgust.

As I expected of her.

"Do I not seem like I went through something terrible, Mr Sinclair?"

She frowned at me  with a questioning tone, to which I responded by ogling at her from head to waist as that was all I could see to the other side of the table.

"Yes, yes, ma'am you do."

I smiled hinting her nervousness but kept on rooted to the place in that leather swivel chair, to give off a well mannered vibe, I thought.

"You lied to me about your identity and hid the fact that you are from some other realm. And what is more to add is some fucking curse. I AM NOT GOING TO MARRY."

She pointed her index finger towards  the seat in front of me asking for explanations, while she emphasized the latter words, and those were obvious because after all she was kidnapped by me, I leaned against the chair, my back tucked with it.

"No, I object and disagree Miss Syna, I didn't lie rather just hid the fact and about the later thing, I am your only solution Miss Syna, there is no other way you can escape from this curse."

I told her in a calm manner, sure if she fully acknowledged the curse thingy, she would have known that she had to marry the Ghost King, the heir to the throne of Spirit realm, which is me, Sinclair MacLaverty.

"Wait....But…."

She giggled hysterically while taking a pause as she plopped into the chair opposite to mine. So she was a jovial person and is happy, I wondered if I had proposed to her earlier and could have chosen some ring!

"Okey, so, Miss Syna I have confessed to you and would propose you in a proper way. And if you need some money to buy a wedding dress I can help you regarding that."

I interlaced my fingers as I leaned against the back of chair radiating completely professional vibes. Along with my cold tone as a whole it was enough to intimidate anyone.

"Really Sir? Aww you are so sweet, and too kind to help  me in that regard, thank you so much."

Her eyes beamed with joy earlier but when she thanked me, her voice was laced with a mock, which was really strange to me and honestly it caused me a headache.

What did I do now, hasn't she thought of entering into fashion industry she would be famous with her exceptional looks in no time, that thought hit me badly at that time as my eyes feasted on her face.

When she entered I could sense her heart beating fast and happy emotions, which were strange to me. To my expectations she should be aggressive and rebellious after what I did to her, but she was doing fine a few minutes ago when her mood switched…..

But to my surprise I witnessed her glaring eyes darted onto my face as if she was tearing me apart and scratching my face with her those long, snow pink painted nails.

"You must have prepared a contract too, Mr Sinclair?"

She gritted and questioned me in a sarcasm laced voice, I was unable to register why she was reacting like that, still after my proposal. 

But I admitted the silver cells of my bride, I prepared a contract like a marriage contract. I planned to propose to her later first I wanted to keep her with me and to date,  gradually making her fond of me.
