6 Chapter Six

"So, tell me again how do you know Jonathan Xavier?"

Siara glanced a bit from her laptop to saw her boss, Nick, sat across from her table. It has been 48 hours since their meeting with Jonathan, that means two days ago. She sighed. She know this question would came by soon. Siara wanted to avoid the question because she know she wouldn't told a single bit about her steamy counter with Jonathan, which several times.

"There's nothing special." She replied, not looked away from her laptop. "We just met when I'm took my vacation during my birthday, you remembered that right?"

He nodded, "Okay, but what I meant was, how."

She shrugged her shoulders, "He just buy me a drink and we're making conversation."

"Okay, what does he meant by found happiness a lot?" Nick asked again, felt curious.

She sighed once again, closed her laptop, "We spent one day together, admiring every nice place in Bali but that's all."

Nick's jaw tensed a bit but he quickly recovered from it and gave her an amused smile. He doesn't want Siara to know he was a bit jealous of Jonathan. He always had his eyes on her all this time. But he also know that Siara won't accepted him as her lover when his status was a widowed man with two beautiful children who growing up now.

As silence filled up Siara's office room, her door came to open. They both saw a guy held a very big bouquet of red roses came with a receptionist company in front of him.

"Yes?" Siara asked, felt shocked.

"A delivery for Ms. Aurelia." The receptionist replied.

Then the receptionist allowed the delivery guy to came in to the room and placed the big bouquet in Siara's table. After he placed it, the delivery guy gave an envelope to her.

"The sender told me to gives you this in person." The delivery guy said.

"Um, thank you?" Siara looked confused.

After that, both the receptionist and the delivery guy walked out from the office room. Siara fliped back the envelope on her hand. Curious about who the sender was.

"That's a big one. Who sent it?" Nick said.

Siara's opened the envelope and read it.

This roses is so beautiful when I pass them on the street. And this beautiful roses remind me how beautiful you are, naked in my bed. I miss you my goddess.

-JX

Siara quickly put the letter back to the envelope. "It's from Jonathan." She muttered.

Nick's eyes widened, "Really? Wow, he must be really like you."

"Nick, I don't want to having this conversation at all." She sighed, "Do you have work to do than pestering me?"

He chuckled, "Someone's in bad mood today."

"Nick." Siara glared to him.

He put his hands on surrender mode, "Okay I'll go, I'll go."

Siara back to her seat and stared at the bouquet. After a long stare, a smile began to crept in to her lips. She never knew Jonathan could be so romantic to her. He knew her number and email yet he still hasn't contacted her at all. But now, sent her dozens of roses was a proof that he thought about her, even though his letter was very naughty. She missed him too. She wanted to felt his warm body against her. The way he cuddled with her, it made her felt like she was important for him. He watering her with so much affection. But clearly, his affection was only his way to get her to had sex with him. She doesn't complaint though. Siara know they were only had relationship in bed and it was more than she could asked for.

As the clock strike six, Siara bid goodbye to Nick, left him alone with his unfinished work. She took the private elevator as only her and Nick could access it. When the elevator hit the lobby she bid goodbye to the receptionist and the security as well. She known them well for this last three years when she started worked for Nick's company. Siara stepped out from the building, looked for a cab. Just when she tried to stop a cab, a very nice car came to stop in front of her. The driver door was opened and revealed Andrew from inside.

"Good evening, Ms. Aurelia. " Andrew greeted her.

"Oh, good evening, Mr. Grey." She smiled to him, "Do you want to meet with Mr. Brentley?"

He shook his head, "Actually I want to meet you."

"Me?"

He nodded his head, "Yeah, I'm here to pick you up."

She looked confused now, "Why?"

"Mr. Xavier's order." He replied. "We have to go right now, he's waiting."

"Um..."

"Come on Ms. Siara, Mr. Xavier really wanted to meet you. You received the bouquet right?"

"You know about the bouquet?" She asked, sound surprise.

He flashed a smile, a really good smile that made all woman swoon. "Of course, I was with him today when he bought it. Although I don't know what he was write on the envelope. I thought the envelope was about you meeting him?"

"Yeah, he mentioned it." She lied, "But I totally forget about that. I'm sorry."

"It's okay. Shall we go now?"

"Okay, and Mr. Grey?"

"Yes, Ms. Aurelia?"

"Call me Siara please." She casted a smile before opened the passenger door.

He replied her smile, "And you can call me Andrew, Siara."

-----

"Mr. Xavier?" Andrew called out but no answer.

"I think he's not home yet." Siara said.

"No, he's already here. I escorted him here when I came to pick him up from the airport this morning. Why don't you take a sit in here? I'll search him."

Siara nodded her head. She took a sit in the living room couch of Jonathan's apartment while Andrew left her to search for him. She looked around and tried to absorbed everything of Jonathan's apartment. Every inch screamed for luxury. This man really had a great taste. She thought this was the biggest apartment she ever saw.

"Siara." Andrew voice came.

She got up from the couch and saw Jonathan behind Andrew, looking handsome as hell and shirtless. He only wore grey sweatpants. Those muscles really distracted her. She blushed when she practically ogling him. And to made it worse, this was inappropriate to saw him like that when there was Andrew between them. Both of his company and the company she worked for were partners now. Seeing the CEO of Xavier Enterprise and a personal assistant of Brentley Co. wouldn't be good for the headlines business magazines. Both the company was well known in the world.

"Um..." She cleared her throat, "You wanted to see me, Mr. Xavier?"

Jonathan doesn't answer her question. He just stood there while his eyes bore to her.

"I'm leaving now." Andrew said to Xavier and then approached Siara, "Have a good night Siara."

She smiled, "Yeah, have a good night too Andrew. And thank you."

"Your welcome Siara." And with that, Andrew left them behind.

Siara's eyes followed Andrew's movement until he was out from her sight. When she wanted to look to Jonathan, she gasped. Now Jonathan already in front of her. She doesn't hear him when he approached her. His move was so silent to her ears.

"Jonathan?"

"Why both of you called each other on first name? Without any deliver?" Jonathan asked. His tone was demanding and there's a hint of anger.

"What?" She looked taken aback.

He raised his eyebrow, "I think you heard me, Siara."

"Because it's okay?" Siara's unsure of her answer.

"Then why do you call me Mr. Xavier?"

"It would be inappropriate to call your first name. Our company is partner now. We have to keep professional."

"So you think it's professional to call my assistant in his first name?"

"But-"

"Siara." He cut her off. Placing his fingers on her waist, dug his nails through her dress, "No man, I repeat, no man will ever call you like that again except me. You're mine, only mine."

And with that, he kissed her lips, cutting her before she could answer.
