Chapter 913 - A bandit (2) (2/2)

Ellie saw that Norman is hooked and reached to one of three folders in front of her. ”My lawyer prepared documents necessary to make it official, and I signed them already. As soon as Mr. Kiani signs, it's official. He will represent me during voting…”

Norman bolted out of his chair. ”I am honored, Miss Young.”

”Oh, no. The honor is all mine.” Ellie smiled and pushed the folder slightly in front of her.

Norman reached to get it and he heard Ellie say: ”I told you when we met two days ago that I really admire you. You are a great father. I respect the amount of support which you give to your son.”

Norman froze in spot with his hand almost touching the folder. ”My son?”

”Yes.” Ellie glanced at Jasper. ”Mr. Kiani will get my voting rights.”

She turned to Norman and blinked few times.

”Miss Young…”, one of the directors called. ”Are you giving your votes to CEO Kiani or Mr. Kiani?”

No one was able to ignore the fact that Norman is the only one standing and his hand is still extended toward that folder.

”What is the difference?” Ellie's innocent expression accompanied with her clear eyes wide open told everyone present that she needs a clarification.

The director pointed at Norman. ”That is Mr. Kiani.”, and then he pointed at Jasper, ”And his son is CEO Kiani.”

Ellie placed hand over her chest dramatically. ”I am sorry for the misunderstanding. You can see my inexperience in a corporate setting. I meant CEO Kiani.”

Ellie pushed the folder in front of Jasper and her gaze didn't leave Norman whose smile already turned into a scowl.

Norman was about to explode. He was not sure if this stupid girl did it on purpose or not, but she humiliated him!

”Mr. Kiani, I apologize. I misspoke and caused you to believe that I'm giving my voting rights to you.”, Ellie said sweetly to Norman. ”I hope you will not blame me for my ignorance.”

Norman glared at Ellie for few endless seconds. He didn't know what to say. Of course, he is blaming her! But he can't say that in front of all these people. At the same time, he does not want to say that he is not blaming her either. He straightened his back.

”Excuse me.”, he mumbled and stomped out of the conference room, slamming the door shut behind him.

Ellie looked after Norman and thought how it's no wonder that he gets along well with Lily. Two of them are both arrogant, easily upset, and they even stomp out in the same way when they run out of arguments.

She wondered if he will still underestimate her after this? First he thought she is promiscuous, then that her IQ is questionable. What's next?

Ellie had a satisfied smile when she gave pen to Jasper. She made a mistake to look him in the eyes. His icy-blue eyes full of admiration and love, and she held her breath while desire to kiss him swelled inside her. Her eyes darted few times between his lips and his eyes, and she started inching closer when someone from the conference room cleared his throat and made her snap out of her daze.

”Sign it, please.”, she said with a shy smile while lowering her gaze.
