Chapter 46 - The Girl In Red (1/2)

”Adam!” She squealed in delight. ”It's so good to be back home. I am sorry for staying away for so long, but you know, duty calls. I missed you so much. But now, I am back and I won't be going anywhere for a long time. We have all the time for ourselves now.”

Adam stood there quietly, his hands raise up slightly in either sides as no to touch the girl who was clinging to his as if her life depended on it.

He felt a pair of eyes staring at him, he moved his head slightly to his left only to find Stella looking at him with her eyes narrowed. He gulped looking at her expressions. 'I am so dead.'

”I have missed you so much Adam. That's why I have decided not to take any more projects that requires me to go abroad. I can't bare to stay away from you anymore.” The girl in red dress was still clinging to him.

Adam slightly shook his body as to escape from her hug, but she made her grip around him tighter.

”Move back Rachel.” Adam gritted his teeth. He didn't want Stella to misunderstand him on the second day of their relationship. 'There's no way I am going to let that happen.'

He forcefully separated the girl from himself and stood at a fair distance from her.

”How many times have I told you before that I don't like it when people invade my privacy?” He exclaimed while trying to control his anger.

”Oh come on Adam, I don't count in people.” She replied waving her hand in the air.

”Stella meet Rachel, Rachel Nelson.” He introduced the girl to Stella. ”And Rachel, that's Stella, my...”

”His assistant.” Stella interrupted him before he could finish his sentence.

Adam narrowed his eyes at her. 'What had gotten into her now?'

Rachel nodded at her, ”And I am his childhood sweetheart.” She added coyly.

Adam looked at her, his eyes widening in shock. He turned to look at Stella, shaking his head sideways like a rattle. ”What nonsense are you spouting before my staff? Get out of my office. Next time, don't forget to knock.” He shouted at her.

”What are getting so worked up for? I am going now, but I will see you later on.” She replied with a wink, making her way towards the door.

Once she was out Adam locked the door by pressing a button that was on the inner side of his office desk. After making sure that no one would be able to disturb them, he walked towards Stella who now, had her back towards him.

”Stella, it's not like what you think.” He said heading towards her way.

”Oh! Really? Why don't you enlighten me then?” She asked turning to face him, with a smirk on her face.
