《The Revenge Of A Businessman》Chapter 10
Advertisement
After our little conversation Jacob went back to his cabin and I resumed my work on the computer. Shortly after having lunch Jacob came in my cabin to inform me about the time of the flight and to take my signatures on some documents for the flight. Just as Jacob was going I remembered that he doesn’t have my passport.
“Sir”
“Yes.” He said without turning.
“Don't you need my passport?”
He turned to face me and smirked.
“I was kind of expecting you to ask me that question. And no I don't need your passport because we are going in my jet. If you have my permission then nobody will ask you for your passport.”
I was stunned.
“We are travelling in your jet?” I asked him. “You mean a private jet?”
“Uh yes what's wrong?” He said.
I looked at his face and saw that he was pretty serious. I decided not to aggravate the matter.
“Don't worry it's nothing. I'm pretty excited to go in the private jet.” I told him.
“Oh. Well we have to go now if we want to board the plane in time.”
“What now?”
“Yeah C'mon don't want to be late would you?” He teased.
I did not pay attention to him as I was excited to board the plane. “Let's go.” I said and I grabbed his hand and dragged him to the door when I realised what I was doing I immediately let go of his hand and said I'm sorry. But I was surprised when he did not say anything. He just nodded and opened the door and headed to his car. Before going in the car I made sure to say my goodbye to Jordan.
“Jordan” I shouted as I saw her going in the other direction. Fortunately she heard me. She turned and saw me. She smirked. I could sense that she was going to say something that I won't like.
“Hey!” She exclaimed when see came near.
“Hey! I just came to say bye as I'm going with Jacob to England for about a month.”

I was surprised to see her not shocked. I waved my hand in front of her face and said:
“Are you listening to me?”
“Yeah I was just thinking you and Jacob” and she playfully hit my arm “going to England together, alone and that's too in his private jet.”
“Well now how do you know this?” I asked her playing along.
“Maybe Jacob told you NOT to buy clothes.”
“Yeah how do you know that?”
“Maybe if you stop interrupting then I would be able to tell you.” She told me calmly. I just kept quiet and waited for her to continue.
“It was me who bought the things that you would need for England, well not bought as it was Jacob who paid. This morning after you left Jacob's cabin he came to me and told me to go and buy clothes, shoes and the other things that you'll need for a month. And my dear when you come back you are going to thank me for all of this.”
“Ok. I just hope that I'm not going to regret afterwards.” I hugged her and said bye. “And can you take my car home?”
“Okay!” She said while grabbing the keys. I hugged her one more time. She did the same and let go. I was surprised that she did not say anything more than that. Its Jordan after all, she can say anything without knowing where she is. Just when I was entering the elevator I heard a voice; ‘don't become a mom’ and I missed the other part as the door of the elevator closed. I rolled my eyes at her childishness. I'm glad that she was able to move on. I went directly to Jacob's car knowing he was there. The driver opened the door and I joined Jacob in his car. The driver closed the door and went to take his seat. After some minutes of driving I remembered that I didn't inform my grandma. She's so going to kill me. I grabbed my phone and quickly dialled my grandma's number. After several rings she answered.

“Thank god you answered I was starting to get worried.” I said.
“Well hello to you too Mia” She told me. “I was in the backyard cleaning the yard for you.”
I started to feel guilty for her.
“Uh about that please don't freak out.”
“Tell me!”
“I'msortof goingtoLondonwithmybossforsomeworkforaboutamonth!” I told her.
She laughed and said ‘please repeat.’ I could hear the impatience in her voice.
“Well I'm going to London with my boss for some work for about a month.” She sighed.
“I'm sorry sweetie. Actually after that I'll get two weeks off. I promise I'll make it up to you. Please forgive me!” I told her.
“Hey I'm not angry. I know that work is important for you. Don't worry. Take your time. I'll wait for you. And have fun! I love you!”
“Thanks. I love you too and I'll miss you. Bye.” After that I hung up.
“Boyfriend?” Jacob asked.
“What?”
“Boyfriend?” He asked once again.
“No. I told you I don't have a boyfriend.”
“Well the way you were talking anyone would assume that.”
I smiled at him. “Many people told me this. Actually it's my grandma. I was supposed to visit her this coming week.”
“Oh.” He said. After that no one said anything. Jacob was working on his laptop while I was admiring the view.
Jacob's P.O.V
After she let go of my hand I was a little upset. She said ‘sorry’. But I did not have the courage to say anything so I just nod my head and made my way to the car. I slightly turned my head to see if Mia was following me but she wasn’t. I went in my car and waited for her to come. I went back to work on my laptop as I had nothing interesting to do than this. After some minutes I heard the door open and Mia entered and sat next to me. I continued to work on my laptop. I don’t know what happened to me. I've always hated that girl since the first time I saw her and she insult me. But now the feeling has changed. I don't know if I still hate her.
“Thank god you answered. I was starting to get worried.” She said to someone on the phone.
She waited for some time as she was listening to the other person.
Then she said “please don't freak out” and she said something that I did not understand.
I assumed the other person did not understand as she repeat herself. Now I could understand her when she said:
“Well I'm going to London with my boss for about a month.”
When I heard her say boss I don't know why I was a little disappointed to hear that.
She continued. “I'm sorry sweetie. Actually after that I'll get two weeks off. I promise I'll make it up to you. Please forgive me.”
To whom is she asking for forgiveness and who's that sweetie?
“Thanks I love you too and I'll miss you. Bye.” She said before hanging up.
“Boyfriend?” I asked her.
“What?” She asked.
I swear this girl has hearing problems. Every time I ask her something she always says ‘what’! I thought.
“Boyfriend?” I repeated.
“No. I told you I don't have one”.
Oh yeah she told me that. What's happening to me?
“Well the way you were talking anyone would assume that.” I told her.
She smiled at me. “Many people told me this. Actually it's my grandma. I was supposed to visit her this coming week.” She told me.
Of course she told me that too. I'm becoming a forgetful person from time to time. Don't know what's happening to me.
“Oh,” I said. After that I did not say anything nor did she. I continue to work on my laptop and Mia was just looking outside the window.
She is so beautiful and her smile. She's like an angel. Shit what's happening to me? I'm her boss. I should not pass that line. But she's so beautiful that I could not avoid her. My eyes were constantly moving to her.
Shit this can't be happening to me. I can't fall in love with her. God help me!
