25 Shes Getting Bolder. (1/2)

Upon seeing Samantha walk out from Daniel's private elevator, Leah Tan forced a smile but Samantha just nodded at her; she doesn't like her so why would she pretend? Daniel saw Samantha walked over and gentleness came over his face, ”You're here...”, he said as he smiled.

”Good afternoon, Miss.”, said Leah.

”Honey, why did you call me here?”, Samantha asked Daniel, ignoring Leah Tan at the side.

”I have something to tell you, you can sit on the sofa for a bit, I'll ask my secretary to bring you some tea.”

”President Cho, I'd also like to discuss some things about the upcoming event.” Leah Tan tried to get Daniel's attention.

Samantha felt like Leah is trying so hard to take Daniel's time. Can't those things wait? Does it have to be right now?

Samantha who's feeling a bit childish at the moment sauntered towards Daniel before he could reply and said as she moved, ”But I don't want to sit on the sofa...”, Daniel gazed at her while she was coming over. She stood beside Daniel and she swiveled his chair, allowing a little room for her to move closer and step in between him and the desk. She sat on his lap sideways and hooked her arms around his neck, ”I want to sit here.”, she said dauntlessly.

Daniel swallowed, thinking, 'You're getting bolder Samantha.'

Upon seeing Samantha openly flirt with his boss, Assistant Ahn was sent into a coughing fit. On the other hand, Director Tan was mad with jealousy, she tried to suppress her face from showing any change in expression but her hands formed into fists.

Daniel didn't take his eyes off of Samantha's, he's reading her like she's a very interesting book that he can't put down. Without turning his head, he called, ”Ahn..”

”Yes, President.”

”Discuss everything with Director Tan regarding the event and make decisions accordingly.”

”But President--” Leah tried to reason.

”Leave us.”, Daniel said firmly, still looking at Samantha in the eye.

Samantha glanced at Leah and smiled brightly.

Leah Tan caught the boastful eyes of Samantha and she clenched her jaw.

Assistant Ahn pulled Director Tan away who was very reluctant to leave and ushered her out of the office leaving the couple alone.

Daniel placed his hand on Samantha's side while the other on her thigh and smirked, ”Ms. Kim.”

”Mr. Cho.”, she replied.

Samantha tugged his necktie pulling him closer as she lowered her head to kiss his lips. She inhaled the smooth and musky scent of Daniel while tasting his minty lips when he kissed her back. Samantha kissed the tip of his nose before she pulled away.

”Why am I here again?”, Samantha asked.

Daniel chuckled, ”Clear your schedule on Friday, we're going to attend a corporate event. Be my date.”.

Samantha furrowed her brows, ”What corporate event?”

”Um... I'm... I'm not sure.. there'll be lots of people. If you'd bring me as your date, it will definitely cause an uproar. I.. I don't know if I'm ready for that.” Samantha said hesitantly.

Daniel smiled and he stroke her back, ”I knew you'd say that... that's why this event will be a masquerade party.”

”Masquerade? Like... people wearing masks and all?”

”Yeah.”, he nodded. ”And, your family is invited too. You can even bring Hannah if you want. You won't be alone. You can't refuse me now, I want you to be there with me.”.
