Chapter 69: I know that

The next day , Alyssa went to her mother and returned back to the Mansion late. She had really missed her mother so she spent the full Sunday there.

At Wong Costmetics.

The following day , She reported for work and did most of her assignment. Then in the middle of work her phone rung.

' Mr Wong calling ' It read.

' What does he want now ! ' She sighed and received the call.

" Good afternoon sir. " She greeted.

" Good afternoon. How are you today ? " David asked.

' When did he start checking on me ? ' She stupidly thought innery and said. " I am doing well sir. Is there anything you need to tell me ? " Asked her being polite.

" We are having dinner with May's family today. Make sure you come early. " David informed her.

" Where are we meeting sir ? " She asked.

" At home . Inform Calcel to come back early too " David said.

" Fine sir. " Alyssa ended the call.

" Why didn't call Calcel himself ! " She cursed and gritted her teeth.

Calcel's office.

He's also busy reading through some documents when he heard a knock.

" Enter ! " He said and placed the file down to look at the knocker.

Alyssa got inside the office calmly. He gave her a devilish look.

" What brings you to my office at this time ? " He asked rude than before.

Alyssa gave herself a seat and looked at him. " Is that how you welcome someone into your office ? " She asked.

" Are you giving me rules now ? " Calcel was becoming bitter.

" I didn't say that. " Alyssa said realising what she said.

" Hurry say what you have to say and leave my office. " Calcel said hoarsely.

Alyssa chuckled not believing this. " Are you going to be treating me like this now ? " Alyssa was touched.

" I've ever treated you like that before. Are you offended now ? " He questioned.

" It's not that I am offended . I am already used it your misconduct. " Alyssa argued .

" So what brings you here ? " Calcel asked.

" I came to check on you. My step son. " Alyssa muttered looking serious.

Calcel chuckled and smirked." I hear step son. "He gasped.

He walked to where Alyssa was seated and stood behind her. He then bent closer to her such that his face was touching her neck.

" What now , Do you think that I am going to treat you right just because I confessed that I like you ? " He asked almost whispering through her ear.

" I didn't say that . " Alyssa quickly attered out. Her heart was racing already and she swallowed hard.

" Let me tell you Alyssa , I've already decided to marry May and this has made me to hate you more than I hated you earlier. " He mumbled.

" I Know that. " Alyssa talked.

Calcel moved away from the posture and sat on his desk still looking at her.

" So what is it now ? " He asked her.

" Your father asked me to inform you that there's a meeting today with May's family. Better get prepared. " Alyssa said and got up from the seat before Calcel could say anything she turned to leave the office.

When she was off sight Calcel sighed and wondered if what he was doing was right. Was he going to torture her just because she didn't like him back. But he also sacrificed alot for her and most importantly he once saved her life. If it wasn't him she would be dead or even worse than she is.

" Alyssa ..." He called her name.
