" Dad" I walked towards them, not much paying attention to Ethan. I feel his burning gaze on me but I decide no to look at him.
Dad smiles at me," Was that Micah Agnor?"
I nod," Yes, he wanted to make a deal. I will give you the details later."
" Sure, he is a promising young man"
That he is but also a psycho sometimes.
" I agree, he is good." I felt Ethans gaze going between me and dad.
" It's time, I am off. Don't overwork , go back early"Dad nods towards me and Ethan and walked into his office to pack up
" Hmm good night" just as I turned to go back into my cabin I colluded with someone. I staggered backwards a bit to gain balance , but then I felt my back hit a warm wall and hot breathe hit my neck.
" Are you okay?" warm breathe hit my ear sending a shiver down my spine, I gasp at the sudden sensation so much so that I felt my breath hitch. I looked over my shoulder to find Ethan standing behind me, the distance between us was merely a few inches. His blue eys bore into mine locking me into a trance. His intoxicating scent envoloped my entire being, I felt myself greedy to inhale as much as possible.
His arms were on the either side of my arms, they slowly slide down from my elbows to my wrists. I wanted to lean into him seeking warmth from his touch. There was a sudden tension which was new to me.
"Sorry, I am so sorry, I ddn't mean it . I am sorry ..." a sudden panicked voice brought me out my trance.
I jerked my head towards the source of voice to feel a bucket of ice cold water poured on me, there stood Emma with her eyes red looking between me and Ethan.

I hurriedly moved away from him to create distance between us, his hands fell from my sides. I felt sudden loss of warmth.
No...
I shook my head mentally to clear those unwanted thought," It-It's okay"
" I am so-so sorry Miss. Williams, I-I did not do it on purpose please forgive me. I won't do it again. I am really sorry." her voice broke as she was ready to cry any time.
I felt like she was making to be a unreasonable person for not forgiving her.
I sighed feeling a headache coming on," I said it is okay."
" Sir I am so sorry I did not mean it. Please forgive me. I am really very sorry" she looked at Ethan giving a pitiful look with red eyes.
Wait what?
What the hell? Why is she saying sorry to him? Wasn't I the one who was suddenly attacked I mean caught off gaurd?
Really a bitch...
I looked at Ethan to find him staring at me with an unreadable look.
What is it? Does he blames me for bullying Emma?
You got to be kidding me. This bunch of love sick fools. Damn it..
Angry, so angry....
Control Daisy ...calm down...they are bunch of idiots you can't indulge with them...but I bloody can't
God I feel so irritated...
" Excuse me? May I know who you are?"
" I am Emma Smith, Mr.King's assistant." she said pitifully lowering her head as if I have asked her the most humiliating thing.
Ah...this bitch...
" Miss Emma, Did I bully you? Or did I humiliate you? " I asked folding my arms over my chest acting like an overbearing person.
" No...no"
" Cut the crap.... , please if you want to cry and make a scene to potray that I am being an unreasonable person, I request you to do it somewhere else. I don't have any interest in playing this games with you... " she froze, her hands trembled a little. She did not expect me to see through her at all.

I have dealth with much more pretentious people that you.
" I-I did not mean to. Sir I-I..." she looked at Ethan for help.
Before I could say anything I heard a familar voice coming from elevator," Hey Daisy, you forgot something"
I looked towards the source to find Micah coming towards me with a mischievous smile on his face.
" Why are you back?" I questioned confused as to why is back when he just left.
" I wanted to give you something but then I saw you being bumped into someone, thought you would need help" he whispered the latter beside my ear.
He eyed Emma who had a pitiful expression, I waited to see him fall in love with her at first site. But he was expressionless face.
He then looked at Ethan and smiled extending his hand, " Mr.King I have heard a lot about you. Nice to meet you. Micah Agnor"
" Nice to meet yo too." Ethan took his hand with cold expression. They both stared at each other, Micah had a eyebrow raised arrogantly challenging.
Ethan was looking at him like Micah owed a million dollar or something.
Wait? Can he be jealous that Micah glanced at Emma?
It can be, right?
Ah........ finally the story is on the right track, I can go back now.
hehehe...
I looked towards Emma to find her staring between both the men with a foreign expression on her face. Something about her intrigued me. Like she has more to her.
" Um..what did you wanted to give me?" I asked Micah breaking their staring contest.
Micah looked at me raising his eyebrows," How can you forget?"
" Forget what?" I asked bewildered.
" You wanted to talk to my mother. But you don't have number, remember?"
" I was just..."
" Come on Day. You were the one who was ready to meet her. How can you forget?"
Why does is sounds odd?
Why do I feel like daughter-in-law ready to meet her mother-in-law?
Maybe I am thinking too much.
" Meet your mother?" Ethan suddenly asked looking between me and Micah bewildered.
" Oh yes, Day wanted to meet my mum" Micah smiled at him.
" Day? " Ethan looked at me with raised eyebrow.
" Yes I like to call her that" Micah smirked at him.
Wait when were we so close to give nicknames?
This person is really something else.
" Here" Micah handed me a card and walked away leaving me confused with a card in my hand.
I glanced at Ethan who was looking at me with angry eyes.
" What?" I asked confused by his gaze.
Is it my fault?
Wait is he angry at me because I was the reason Micah met Emma?
But it was bound to happen.
" Sir we.." before Emma could say anything she was silenced by a sharp glare.
" You don't need to come to work anymore"
