《Meant To Be》Chapter 25 - Sorry?
Advertisement
Ella's POV
"Hi, can I see your boss" a pretty woman around her forties walked up to me?
"Sorry ma'am, he is busy and asked not to
be disturbed. You can leave a message." I said politely.
"And who are you to stop me from seeing my son?" She went past me and into Mr. Grey's office before I could stop her.
What! Mr. Grey's Mother? Oh my God, why didn't I recognized her? She had the same green eyes Mr. Grey have thought hers was piecing green but green nonetheless and I should have realized that.
Not long after she entered, I heard loud voices and knew they were arguing, but about what, I had no idea and it's not even my business.
I imagine how it would be like to argue with mum if she was still here with me? I bet I would have been too happy to argue with her.
Mrs. Grey storm out looking quite furious distracting my thought and that was my cue to check on Mr. Grey. I open the door to his office and what met my eyes... Everything was scattered on the floor. He has thrown almost everything on his desk. Now the nice office which I made sure to arrange every morning before he came to work now looked like...mm see! Nothing comes to mind. That is how bad and messy the office is, in short, I can't find the right word to describe the current state of his office.
He hasn't noticed me yet. He is at the far end of the window with his phone clenching to his ear like a second skin. His knuckles turning red and his shoulders tensed. Who he is talking to, I have no idea. First his mother and now whoever he is talking to.

"Damn it dad! " that's was all I heard. Next thing I'm holding a bleeding forehead.
I was bent trying to put the files back in order. I didn't see it coming and when I finally did it was too late to dodge the flying phone and it landed on my forehead. I let out an involuntary scream which drew his attention to my presence in his office and then the blood.
"Shit! are you okay? He asked practically running to me. He takes my head in his large hands to examine the cut.
" Yes Sir, I'm fine," I said resisting the edge to yell ' NO! I'M NOT' to his face because I'm obviously not okay. Who throws their phones away just because they are angry?
"No! you are not, you are bleeding" as if that's not obvious enough. 'And the whom fault is it that I'm bleeding' again I wanted to scream that into his ear.
"Let's get you to a hospital"
"No, I'm fine. I just need to get this clean" I said gesturing to my bleeding forehead. He helps me down on the sofa as he rummages through drawers and came back with a first aid kit.
"I can do that on my own. Thank you" I offered even though I was fuming inside and I knew that was the little he could do.
"Come on Ella, I didn't mean to hurt you or anything and I feel bad for it already so, please! " I could see the sincerity in his pleading green eyes so I gave in.
He positions himself in between my legs and took my forehead to treat the cut. Whiles, he busied himself taking care of my cut, I was also busy with my eyes touring his body. With his black shirt hugging him, I could see his broad chest and large firm muscular shoulders. I imagine tracing my hand on it. How heavenly that might leave me feeling. The mental imagine almost left me gasping.

"Done" he announced still having his hand on my cheeks.
"Thanks. And sorry - he raised a brow so I explained further - for you know coming in here unnoticed" his next move took me by surprise. He put a finger on my lips shaking his head slowly to the left and then to the right with his vibrant green eyes which looked forest green a while back staring brightly at my lips. He pulls me up with him. I can hear my heart pounds loud in my chest like it is going to explode. Lord help me! My heart is pounding so hard I bet he could hear it.
"I want you" he whispered pressing his lips against mine. The kiss is soft and tender like he is testing the waters and it took all in me to pull back but I tried. "But this is wrong" I manage to say though it felt so right at the moment. He claims my lips again. This time the kiss is hard and demanding making my whole body weak. I am not able to take all the butterflies in my stomach as I gave in to his kiss with equal desire. "I don't think so" he answered intensifying the kiss as a moan and give in to the wonderful experience. He sat us both on the sofa without breaking the kiss, with his one hand on my back guiding me closer to him, his other handheld my neck as he trails kisses on my neck whiles removing my bottoms. With my throbbing, I dig my nails inside his hair eliciting a soft moan from him.
"Everyone is waiting for you, Ash what are you still doing in - " Jack stop midway when he saw what was actually stopping him from joining the meeting.
"I. I didn't see anything" he stuttered covering his eyes with his hand and retreating outside the office. To avoid further embarrassment, I try to snick out as well.
"Ella " he called before I could open the door and I froze turning round. I was too embarrassed to look him in the eye so I lowered my head "yes"
"I'm sorry. "
