06 My Fiancee

Nesryn ignored Azriel's comment, she called the driver before pushing the buttons of the elevator. She stayed behind the two as they boarded in. Azriel opened the car door for Nicole, helping her with her revealing red gown that surely catches the eyes of everyone. Whilst the driver opened the for Nesryn, she gave him the direction and the secretary, her boss and his date set out for the night.

Reporters, media, and paparazzi gathered together at the red carpet. Celebrities and social elites posed for the camera as flashes blinded the audiences. The driver pulled up the red carpet, Nesryn was the first to come out of the car, she quickly shielded her eyes away from the camera as she waited for her boss and Nicole to come out.

The driver opened Azriel's door, the flashes instified, Azriel reached in to help Nicole out of the car. The two posed for the camera whilst Nesryn stayed 3 steps behind them, once finished they headed inside the event hall. Nesryn took charge as she handed the hostess their invitation. They were then led inside the party hall.

Azriel took care of Nicole inside the venue whilst Nesryn was tasked to talk to any prominent business figures, to speak business with them. Although Nesryn knew her boss would be fine, she can't help but look for him every 10 minutes, just to make sure he was fine. Nesryn is fluent in 6 different languages that includes Chinese, Japanese, French, English, German and Russian.

Being the secretary of a world-wide icon, it was only just that she can handle herself in other countries. Azriel took a glance at his secretary's direction, she's been speaking with a Japanese businessman for a while now and he could see that the man's intention was not business but her instead. The playboy boss untangled Nicole's arms off him, politely excused himself from the group of women surrounding her and walked towards his secretary's direction.

"Hey love" he smiled at Nesryn sweetly as he wrapped an arm around her waist. Nesryn looked at him in confusion but he just widened his eyes at her and she immediately understood. Azriel pulled her closer to him, she sweetly smiled towards his direction "I am fine love, Mr. Torao is just telling me a story" Azriel nodded and he faced the said man. He extended his hand to the man "Hello Mr. Torao, I am Azriel Evanders, CEO of Linus Zenon group of companies, I see you've met my fiancee"

Nesryn turned her heads towards Azriel's direction but he didn't spare her a glance, he focused his eyes on the man in front of them. "I didn't know Mr. Evanders had a fiancee" Another man near them butted in. The news travelled fast in the event hall, Nicole made her through the crowd and watched as her so called partner, wrap his arms tighter around his secretary.

Azriel, never once, held her like that since they met. She was the one always wrapping her arms around him, so he won't go to another girl. Everyone knows who this handsome billion-dollar CEO is and every female always dreamt of being in his arms. Nicole thought he'd finally settle in and just have her in his life but apparently her grip on him was too loose that he managed to slip away.

The playboy CEO tried his best to brush off comments the entire night, forcing himself to be patient with the people around him. Azriel had his arms around Nesryn's wais as they walked around and talked to everybody. The two went to the side lines where the tables and chairs were placed and he pulled a chair for her, when he noticed she's getting tired from her high heels.

Everyone, including Nicole and Mr. Torao, watched the interaction of the two as Azriel kneeled in front of her and took her strained legs and feet to his knees as he slowly massaged it. Few whispers erupted from the crowd saying words like 'he's so sweet' or 'she's so lucky'. Despite the commotion they caused, the two were in their own world.

Nesryn was frozen in shock as she watched her boss massage her legs. A few minutes later, Azriel put back her heels and sat right next to her. No one could tell what was being said between the two but one can't help being jealous right now. Women were jealous of Nesryn for snatching a man like Azriel and Men can't help but get envious of Azriel for having a beautiful woman like Nesryn by his side.

Everybody watched as Azriel stood up and went to the buffet area and grabbed two plates, filled it with food and walked back to Nesryn. Also grabbing beverages for the two of them, Azriel didn't eat, he let Nesryn take the first bite and he then started eating himself, a wide smile plastered on his face.

Nesryn continued to eat, not knowing the rumors going around the venue. "Do you want anything else?" Azriel asked, looking up from his food and staring into her eyes. She smiled and shook her head "I am fine sir, do you need anything else?"

"No, no, you've been walking around in those high heels for a long time now, let me get whatever you want for you"

"I am fine sir, I can stand and walk"

"No you aren't, you might not notice it but I did"

"Notice what sir?"

"While we were walking around earlier, you started leaning on me more than the start, tell me did you sprain your ankle?"

"No. No I didn't!" she immediately answered, her loud tone caught the attention of those people standing nearby. She flashed them an apologetic smile and turned back to her boss. Nesryn hid her feet in her dress "I didn't sprain it sir, maybe I am just tired'

"Maybe you are, you're much paler than usual" He leaned closer and touched her cheeks "Your face is cold" he abruptly stood up and took off his coat and quickly wrapped it around her slim body and started rubbing it to make her warm. 'I am fine sir, I promise, the air conditioner is just too cold I guess"

"Wait for me here" Azriel left the table and went to get her a hot tea, he went back walking carefully with a cup and saucer on hand. "They only had jasmine ready" he placed the cup in front of her "Thank you sir" he just beamed his infamous smile that was dubbed by the media as the 'lady-killer smile' "Send a necklace to Nicole tomorrow morning" Azriel ordered and she nodded.

He pulled her closer to him to keep her warm. They were in each other's company for a little while, when Nesryn suddenly pulled back took off his coat "Please return to Ms. Nicole, she must've been looking for you" Azriel furrowed his brows at her "So you want me to leave you here and go to her instead? Leave you? The one that is in pain?" Azriel clarified.

"I am fine sir, please go ahead, it's a party after all" Azriel shook his head and Nesryn gave up, the two ended up talking about business, not knowing what to talk about outside of being professional.

The two didn't bother standing up from their table and interacting with others, they just stayed there, away from the world. They were in the middle of a conversation, when a server interrupted by serving glasses of juice or wine.

Nesryn took a glass of juice whilst Azriel took the wine glass, their conversation continued on throughout the night. People can't help but look at the two, they were a perfect match, even their clothes match. Azriel's white and gold-line suit matched with Nesryn's black and gold-lined dress.

"He must've brought her that dress, if he's fiancee then why did he bring Nicole to the party?" Azriel heard the conversation and immediately turned around and glared. The women gossiping behind their back quickly shut up and walked away.

He looked back at Nesryn, who's currently scrolling through her phone. He furrowed his brows when he saw her looking through some of his documents for tomorrow. Azriel reached in and took the phone from her hands. "Sir!" she reached out trying to get her phone back, Azriel gently pushed her to sit back down.

Nesryn stared back at her boss pointedly "Can you please give me back my phone?" Azriel shook his head, turned her phone off and pocketed it. "This is a party, don't worry about my schedule tomorrow"

"But si-"

"Shhhh, I already told you it's fine"

Nesryn didn't protest after that, not wanting to anger her boss and cause commotion in the party.

2 hours later, Nesryn yawned hiding behind her hands. "Let's go home, you're tired" Azriel stood up and offered his hand to Nesryn. She shyly smiled and took his hand and stood up. The abrupt movement caused her to feel dizzy, she stumbled a little and Azriel immediately caught her "Nesryn?" he called out "Nesryn!" she went limp on his arms.
