Chapter 12:Desensitized to hot guys (2/2)

There have been some issues with the photoshoot that's supposed to be scheduled today for 7Crowns.

With that, all the appointments or hours are all out of whack. It looks like we need to do the initial meeting between Ren Hille and Jett right after our break.

I quickly give Jett a call explaining the situation.

Since I'm still at the office, I use the time I have left to organize all the contracts and other folders containing other essential files that we'll be needing for this meeting.

After getting everything ready, I hold the documents to my chest.

I go out the door, take out my keys to lock it when I sense something behind me.

Turning around, I almost bump into two men.

”Woah there! That was close. Hi! are you Ms. Raley?”

Neither of them even look the least bit apologetic, what with one of them smiling like an idiot.

I try to hold myself back from giving them a piece of my mind for scaring me.

I smirk slightly and let out a breath through my nose and held my head high.

”... Hello... Why do you wish to know, Mr. Hille? And... Mr. Boet?”

Wait a minute... why is he here?

”Well, actually... why are you here, Mr. Boet? Only Mr. Hille had a schedule to meet Mr. Harland today. I wasn't informed that another member of the 7Crowns was going to be here as well.”

Mr. Boet gets closer to me.

Our noses are almost touching.

He bends and moves his sunglasses down a little to peer into my eyes.

He stares at them intently, and I'm just absolutely confused at this point.

I'm about to get angry and ask what his deal is when he suddenly straightens up and says, ”She passes the test. No attraction whatsoever.”

”Hahaha... No attraction whatsoever, huh?” My eyes burst into flames.

My fingers dig into my palms so much that it's so close to breaking the skin.

”Ohh... now, now. It's alright, Ms. Raley. I want to say sorry on his behalf. Charles is... I mean, Mr. Boet is just trying to see if you're 'interested' in him in any way as we were told there's a big possibility that you'll be his manager.”

Upon hearing something like that, I scoff and look sideways.

Do they think I'd be affected by someone like Charles Boet when I'm around Jett Harland all the time? Pfft.

”Ah... Cha- I mean, that's right. You're probably desensitized to hot guys when you're around Jett Harland all the time.” Ren Hille rationalizes as he goes into a thinking pose.

I almost choke on nothing, but I quickly clear my throat and urge Ren Hille to follow me before that happens.

Behind me, I didn't notice that Ren Hille has a childish grin on his face and with both hands in his pockets as he follows me to Conference Room xx.
