Chapter 31 - You are not just my personal assistant, you are my Little Cat. (2/2)
”Let's go”, Deming said while walking a few steps ahead of her. Lifen was struck for some moments but after some seconds she followed Deming leaving everyone stupefied.
After few steps walking Deming stopped, ”Why are you walking behind?” he pulled her with her wrist, ” You should walk beside me”
”Huh...but as far as I know, employee especially personal assistant should walk behind their Boss”, Lifen said in a polite tone.
He looked into her eyes and said in a soft tone, ”You are not just my personal assistant, you are my Little Cat”.
Lifen was mesmerized. Her heart was beating faster than usual but this time it was not because of her nervousness around him. It was her first time not being nervous around her.
After getting her senses back, she back some of her steps away from Deming but she didn't notice that there was unequal platform behind her. Her foot was placed in the wrong way at that moment she got unbalanced. She was about to fall but a warm wide palm grabbed her waist, ”Why are you so careless?”
The heartbeat again got faster. She got scared with the way her heart is behaving. She straightened herself and said in a stammering tone, ”We should leave now”.
She was about step but suddenly her ankle gave her a piercing pain, ”Ouch!”.
”What happened? Are you alright?” Deming asked her in a concerned tone. His eyes showed the deep clouds of worry. ”I am sorry. I think I sprained my ankle. I can't walk any further ,you can go and have your lunch”, Lifen said with pain in her eyes.
The next moment she was up in the air, in the warm arms of Deming. ”You don't have to do this. Just call my friends. They will help me get home”, Lifen said haste.
Deming acted as if he didn't hear anything. He walked straight to the parking lot to get his car. He gently placed Lifen in the car, put on the seatbelts for her and returned back to the driver's seat. Lifen was still in her position, she was scared with the way her heart was acting around Deming.
He took out his phone and dialed a number, ”Murphy , I am heading to Imperial Hospital. Inform Dr.Collin to be there”. Murphy was dumbfounded but before he could ask anything, the call was already being disconnected.
Lifen was also taken aback with Deming's behavior but she couldn't say anything because her talks was continuously being ignored by him.
