149 New CEO (1/2)
The following morning, Vince was woken up by Yve's ringtone. The lady in question is nowhere in sight. He looked outside and saw that Jaleb was also gone. He checked his phone and saw a message from Jaleb.
”Ms. Y is out for a jog. I am accompanying her.”
Seeing the text, he sighed in relief and went back to pick up her phone.
”Sylvan…”
”Primo, where is the Miss?”
”She's out on a jog. Is there anything wrong for you to call this early?”
”The Miss has been called to the Stones Board Meeting.”
Vince wasn't shocked when he heard the news because he had a hunch that would be the next step. Still, he can't give a response to Sylvan as Yve hasn't made up her mind.
”What time will the meeting be?”
”Ten in the morning, Primo.”
”Okay. I'll inform her. In the meantime, don't give any answer to them. I will definitely receive an information.”
”Yes, Primo.”
”What was that?” Yve curiously asked which made Vince turned around.
”Sylvan?” He answered but sounded like a question. He tried to read Yve's expression to figure out her decision but failed.
”Why are asking me?” Yve smiled at him and went to the closet to get a new set of towels. Then she walked back and asked,
”What did he say?”
”Uhmm….”
”Does it have something to do with Stones Enterprises?” Yve asked.
Vince nodded in agreement and said, ”Have you made a decision?”
”Hmmm… But I want to ask you something.” Yve said and approached him closer than ever.
Their foreheads touch and Vince can clearly see the tiny drops of sweat falling from her neck deep into the gym clothes she's wearing. Vince can't help but feel hot at the scenery in front of him. As Yve's height forced him to bow down a little bit, his eyes can't stop themselves from looking lower, down to the places they have to see yet without any cover. Yve seemed to realize this and though she's blushing, she stopped herself.
”Vince, I'm about to ask you something serious but you're preventing me from doing so.” Yve protested.
Vince cupped her face to keep it in place and responded, ”How am I stopping you? Go on.”
Yve gulped her own saliva and earned a smirk from Vince.
