Ouch! My CEO Fiancé Fell For His Maid
Chapter 124
4-1 Wanted Him (Book 2)
I was standing near Margret who was working on the salon’s main counter. We had decided to go for a hundred percent advance bookings and were discussing advertising it.
"For the time being you can take over the reception," I suggested her. The poor woman was an arthritis patient, so I used to involve her more in desk jobs.
"By the way," she bent over the counter with that sinful glint in her eyes," how is it going with that gorgeous hunk?"
She was so secretive, and the question was so unexpected that I had to pull back to look at her face.
"Umm. Ah. Nothing serious..." Nobody here knew that he was here in the Salon before everyone else arrived. They were also not aware that he had invited me for the lunch, next day.
"I think he likes you. Give him a chance, Eve." She suggested me with kindness.
As I continued to stand next to Margaret at the salon's main counter, I couldn't help but feel a bit awkward about her question regarding the ” gorgeous hunk." I knew she was my sincere employee and only wished the best for me, but I wasn't sure how to respond.
Mrs. Margret and June did know about my past a little bit.
I cleared my throat, trying to buy some time to think of an appropriate response. "Margret! He's nice and all, but I don't know if it's anything more than that," I finally replied.
Margaret raised an eyebrow, her expression telling me that she didn't quite believe me. "Come on, Eve. You can't deny that there's chemistry there. I've seen the way he looks at you. We all felt it."
I couldn't help but blush a little at her words. I had noticed the way he looked at me too, but I didn't want to get my hopes up. "Maybe you're right, " I admitted. "But I don't want to make any assumptions."
Margaret nodded, understanding written all over her face. "I get it. But you should at least give him a chance. Who knows? Fate might surprise you."
I chewed on my bottom lip, contemplating her words. Part of me wanted to take her advice and see where things could go with the "gorgeous hunk," but another part of me was scared of getting hurt.
Before I could respond, Margaret interrupted my thoughts. "You know what? Let's make a deal. If you agree to give him a chance, I'll help you come up with a killer advertising plan for the salon's advance bookings."
I smiled at her offer, grateful for her support. "Okay, deal," I said, feeling a sense of excitement building within me. Maybe taking a chance on love and the salon's new marketing strategy wouldn't be so bad after all.

"He has invited me for lunch tomorrow," I announced at the dinner table while chewing the pizza slowly.
"Who?" Aniya asked me absent-mindedly while scrolling through her phone.
"Aniya! We are not allowed to use screens during dinner, remember? And I am talking about Adonis." I flared my nostrils for some effects.
"I am sorry." She quickly tossed aside her phone, "And don't tell me you didn't ask his name!" "I actually didn't ask his name," I admitted, feeling a bit embarrassed.
Aniya's eyebrows shot up in surprise. "You're going on a lunch date with someone whose name you don't even know? That's quite bold on your part, Eve."
I shrugged, trying to play it cool. "I mean, it's not a date, per se. Just lunch.
And I'm sure he'll introduce himself tomorrow."
Aniya interjected, ’Well, just be careful, honey. You never know who you're meeting these days."
I nodded, knowing that my friend was just looking out for me. One day she would be advising me to give it a chance and the very next day she will be passing me warning signs.
I'll be careful, girl. Don't worry."
