Dark Proposal...

Anna reached office after half an hour of drive, she quickly grabs her belongings and walk towards the elevator. The elevator door was about to close when she screams to the person inside to keep it open for her. She walks fast to get inside the elevator and starts breathing heavily.

"You ok?" Anna jumps up with the sudden familiar voice from her back.

"Hey, how come you are here? When did you come back from your visit?" Anna starts questioning Wang who was with her in the elevator while catching her breath.

"I came yesterday and thought of visiting my brother. I wasn't expecting you here though as got informed that you are on leave or something" Wang replies back with a smile.

"Umm...I am still on leave as my friend cum sister is here to visit me but we have some important meeting where they need my presence, so here I am" She replies back with a smile.

"So, what are you doing after completing your meeting, any plans yet" Wang inquires her again.

"Nothing as such, I left my friend alone in hotel room and need to check with her for the next plan"

"If it's fine for both of you, I would like to ask to you to join me for the lunch"

Before Wang could complete the sentence, Anna nods yes which made Wang to laugh in excitement.

"I will make a move then and will call you once my meeting is finish" Anna replies back while walking out of the elevator.

She walks towards the conference room and greets all the people who were already present in the room. Xian walks in as soon he got to know about Anna's arrival. Meeting started once everyone got settled. Xian was continuously staring at Anna throughout the meeting, she could sense the same and thus avoided turning on her left hand side where Xian was sitting. She tried to avoid him as much as possible and this only made Xian anger to reach to the highest peak.

Ciao on the other hand was watching these two in front of him and was sweating badly as he knew Xian will take out all his anger on him if Anna ignores him throughout the day. He kept praying God to do some miracle to get these two in good norms with each other. But luck was not in his favor today.

After the meeting, everyone walks out of the room. Anna grabs her file and was about to exit when halt back after hearing Xian shout out her name.

"Anna, I need to discuss something with you. Wait here and let the rest of the team walk out"

She turned back and stood at the same place still avoiding the eye contact with Xian. Anna received a text message on her phone which made her giggle a bit. It was from Wang who was waiting for her in the reception area and praying for the meeting to get over. She message him back saying to wait for few more minutes and quickly message Susan to start from Hotel. Anna already informed her about the lunch plan.

Xian was fuming in anger watching Anna giggle on the text message "Who the hell is texting her and making her smile from ear to ear, she kept avoiding me and still doing the same but is all happy after receiving the message". He cleared his throat loudly before speaking up.

"Anna, we have the new proposal ready for the assignment and Ciao will share you the same. We need the project to get completed as soon as possible. How much time do you think will it take for the completion"

Anna gets distracted from her phone with sudden voice from Xian. She got herself together and starts replying to Xian "Let me check the details, I think two to three weeks will be fine to complete the work"

Everyone stood there for a minute in silence, Xian was trying to think what to ask her next to make her stay for a longer when gets interrupted by her.

"If it's all, then I will leave for the day. I have a lunch date waiting for me" She grabbed all the belongings and walked out of the meeting room.

Xian was about to ask for the lunch but stood there with his mouth open in shock to hear her saying "Lunch Date"

"She is going on a lunch date with whom" He banged on the table in anger making Ciao sweat in fear. "Boss, do you want to me check on Anna"

"Of course, you idiot. That's the reason you are here for. I need all the details in ten minutes" Xian shouts in anger while walking out of the room.

On the other hand, Anna walks up to Wang who was sitting in sofa near the reception and waiting for her.

"Let's go" Anna draws his attention towards her while walking out. Susan was already waiting in her car near the entrance. Wang and Anna made their way inside the car and starts the ride towards the restaurant where Wang has already done the reservation.

After dropping down at the restaurant all three walks inside and grab their respective seats.

"Aren't you going to introduce us" Susan questions Anna while winking at her.

"Opss I am sorry, He is Wang Xu an employee's brother in Xian's company that's all I know about him and she is Susan my best friend and my family"

Susan and Wang shake hands while getting introduce. They all had lunch while chit chatting.

Wang gets shocked that Anna couldn't make out till now that he is Xian's elder brother. He pretends to let it go and explain her another time as it was not convenient now.

Ciao informs Xian that she is with some guy in restaurant. The person who was spying Anna couldn't see Susan with them as she was sitting next to Wang and thus was not visible from the place the person was standing, even Wang's face wasn't clear and thus he couldn't tell about his presence.

He was fuming in anger and grabbed his coat while walking out of his cabin. In another few minutes he was already at the restaurant pathway when saw Anna walking out of the dinning area alone.

Wang and Susan have excused themselves for washroom and Anna informed them to directly meet her at the lobby. She was walking carelessly when suddenly felt someone dragging her and pushing her back on the wall. She has closed her eyes in fear.

"Anna, you can't tolerate my kiss and touch but can allow any random guy to walk around. I haven't seen anyone so shameless as you. How can you roam around with anyone even after knowing that I am pursuing you" Xian screamed at Anna while still grabbing her arms very tightly.

Anna opens her eyes after hearing Xian's voice. Tears starts falling from her eyes which had mixed reason of pain and anger. She tries to shake off his hand but his grip became more tight. "Xian, we are in restaurant, leave me. Don't create a scene here" She whispers in low voice trying not to attract anyone's attention. Although the pathway was empty and just had Xian, Ciao and herself.

"Anna, this is the last time I am making myself clear. I am pursuing you and you are mine even if you want to deny it. I will do anything and everything in my hand to make you fall for me. Don't make it tough for me to get you" Xian kissed her on her lips. Anna could feel the pain in the kiss. This kiss was very different from the one he gave yesterday night in the car. She shook him off but he tries to kiss her again when gets interrupted by Susan.

"Xian, what are you up to? Leave her now" Susan screams at Xian after seeing Anna in tears. She could sense some tension between these two from the first day but still was not sure about the real reason and after watching them now in this situation made her more confused.

Xian walks away towards the exit without responding to Susan as was feeling guilty of his behavior.

"Anna, are you ok?" Susan quickly reach out to Anna who was still standing there watching Xian's back in tears.

"Susan, I don't want to stay here for another minute. Please take me back to the Hotel" Anna replies back while hugging Susan to which she nods yes and starts towards the exit.

Anna texts Wang informing about her early exit"We are leaving for the Hotel, have something urgent to deal with. Sorry for not waiting for you"

Wang checks her text and replies back with a smile.
