Nicholas follower

Leila was tidying her hair in front of her mirror. She was wearing a sky-blue, ankle-length dress, and put on a pair of slippers of the same color as her dress. Her long, wavy hair was tied up in a bun, leaving two strands of hair in the front.

She lazily grabbed her phone and took a super deep breath. Calm down, Leila. Inhale and exhale. Inhale and exhale.

Leila saw the familiar car from a distance, and walked quickly towards the car. She found Nicholas leaning casually against his car. He was wearing a crisp white shirt and black pants, looking classically handsome. But his face had a complex expression, making Leila slightly nervous.

After a moment of hesitation, she put on a gentle smile and greeted him.

Nicholas raised his wrists and gazed sharply. "Do you know how to drive?" He asked.

"Yes....I know" Leila replied in a low voice.

"Get in" He didn't even bother to look at her as he turned and slipped into the car.

Leila carefully got into the driver's seat and started the engine while Nicholas leisurely leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes.

Driving next to him, Leila felt pressure from him again. She stared at Nicholas who had his head facing outside the window.

"I know I am handsome. So, Fix your gaze ahead" A low and male deep voice sound beside hers.

Leila quickly looked ahead without saying a word. She bit her nether lip in embarrassment. Neither Leila nor Nicholas spoke for the rest of the journey.

Leila's eyes flew open the moment as she followed Nicholas into the beautiful garden. Her eyes wandered around taking in the the beauty and ambience of the gorgeous like place.

Without any warning Nicholas suddenly turned back. Leila, who followed close behind him, wasn't prepared for that. She bumped into his chest. Her nose hit his strong chest muscles. It hurt so badly that it squeezed a few teardrops out of her eyes.

"It hurts!" Leila rubbed her forehead. "Why did you.... " Her words trailed off. Leila averted her gaze quickly when Nicholas darkened gaze fell on her.

"Please go ahead" Leila said respectfully.

This time Leila put some distance between herself and this boss of hers.

A long line of staffs waiting for them with their heads bowed, just like subordinates waiting upon their mighty king.

"This place is so beautiful. I couldn't wait to taste their food". Leila mumbled from behind. The corners of her lips lifted excitedly.

Turning his back on Leila, Nicholas looked incomprehensible. He then narrowed his eyes dangerously and asked, "Who said that we came here to eat?".

Leila's eyelashes quivered slightly. "Then Why are we here?".

"WoW...I am speechless! What did he think of me?" Leila cursed inwardly. Leila stood motionless, her expression flashing with various shades of fury. Her gaze ridicule watching a scene where Tony was playing a golf and a woman standing beside him was holding a warm towel in her hands.

Leila knew exactly what was going on from the way the woman's eyes twinkled as she looked up at Nicholas when he had holed the ball.

Leila's expression stiffened when the woman approaches her in a coquettish manner with her back arched.

"Hello, Can you please get some cold water?"

Leila looked through her chaotic gaze and shuttered, "Me...! Are you...talking...at..me?".

The woman folded her arms across her chest and raised her eyebrow. "Yes. I am talking at you".

"Sorry. Can you please order someone?" Leila replied blandly to the woman who was now looking rather impatient.

"What...?" Belle said before her scoffed coldly. Brushing her hair aside, She asked, "Aren't you Nicholas assistant?"

"No. I am not" Leila replied casually.

"What do you think of yourself? Are you very excited as Nicholas was having little fun with you?" Belle blurted as she glared at her. Her tone was unbelievably arrogant.

"Fun! My ass! What kind of behavior is that?" Leila was about to spoke when a low voice came from behind.

"What happened there?"

Belle rushed to Nicholas and quickly leaned into his shoulder. She is addressing him in such an affectionate manner, "Nick, Your so called follower is so rude".

Leila's eyes were slightly dark, "Follower! Me...?" She was rendered speechless.

However, Nicholas simply glanced at Belle indifferently and walked away without saying anything.

Just as Leila was about to leave, Belle blocked her. She moved close to her with a wicked smile. "Look yourself at the mirror. That's the best advice"

"Thank you so much!" Leila sneered as she looked at the disappearing back of the woman.
