Chapter 107 - Workout Time (2/2)

”Everything will be fine baby girl. You don't have to worry about it.” Adam pressed a lingering kiss on her forehead. It was his way of reassuring her.

Stella nodded her head in response. ”Hopefully everything will go well.” She added, still lost in her own thoughts. She didn't know why, but she kept having a bad feeling about the project. Or maybe it wasn't the project but that person.

-------------------

Stella was waiting for the elevator to arrive. She had came down to the lobby to pick up a parcel which came for Adam. She was tapping her heel against the ash gray marbled floor, making light clicking sounds, her eyes set on the changing numbers in red which were showing next to the metallic gray doors.

”We meet again Ms Stella.” A deep magnetic voice broke her out of her stupor.

She turned around only to find a tall man with a good built, clad in a dark navy blue suit. His hands were tucked in the front pockets of his pants.

Because of the light coming from behind him, there was a shadow cast over his face, making it difficult for Stella to see his face.

Just as she was about to ask him about his identity, the man stepped closer to her.

Stella could feel her body stiffen up at the sight of who it was.

It was the one and only Taylor Williamson. He was looking like his usual handsome self.

”Good morning.” He greeted her, his lips curled up in his usual charming smile.

”G-Good morning.” Stella replied meekly. She was looking everywhere but at him. The tapping of her foot had increased it's pace, her eyes locked on the changing numbers. 'Why is this elevator taking so much time?'

”Shouldn't you be in the meeting room?” He asked her with an amused expression in his face. He could tell that she was being nervous.

”I am just going there. I had to pick this up.” She replied hastily, showing him the brown paper envelope that was in her hand.

The elevator door opened with a ping. Stella entered in and pressed 25.

”Thank God.” She muttered under her breath but soon it converted to cursed as she saw him stepping inside as well.

”I am sorry, Mr Taylor, but this elevator is for employs only. You should take the one which is for our guests.” She spoke up.

”It doesn't matter which elevator I take as long as it takes me to my destination. Since we are going to the same floor, so why not share one.” He replied lazily as the elevator doors closed.
