Chapter 10 What he expected
Chapter 10 What he expected
Thomas Grey’s special assistant is stunned when he opens the office door.
It is only because he sees their unsmiling and decisive chief executive smile, and even his voice is too
soft to be terrible.
For a moment, he wants to rush out the door.
But somehow, he just wants to see if someone has casted a spell on their CEO. Otherwise, how could
he suddenly turn to a different person?
Before he could speak, Thomas Grey raises his hand and asks him to wait aside.
Then, the special assistant stands by, eyes down, ears pricking up, and listens openly to his boss's
phone calls.
No, to be exact, he listens openly to his boss speaking sugared words.
“Honey, do you know how beautiful you are when you smile?”
Oh my god! A ten-thousand-year iceberg is smiling! And the corner of his mouth has almost reached
his temple! How scary!
The special assistant takes a deep breath. He constantly gives himself a hint: don’t think too much,
don’t laugh, or the volcano would erupt.
The special Assistant doesn’t know who is he talking to nor what did she say, but he knows that his
boss looks very happy.
“Ok, I’ll stop...” Thomas Grey says gently, “I listen to you, whatever you say, ok?”
Thomas Grey knows that if he keeps talking like that, he might really annoy his girl. At that time, he
would suffer a lot.
“Are...are you free tomorrow?” Rachel Stuart asks. She takes a few deep breaths, suppresses the
desire to hang up.
Thomas Grey is surprised, then he laughs, “Baby are you gonna ask me out?”
“Will you shut up? Tell me if you are free tomorrow!”
“Yes, of course.” Thomas Grey says quickly, “As long as you want me, I will be free at any time.”
Rachel Stuart is touched but she still worries, “if you have something to do, you can tell me and I'm not
in a hurry...”
“As long as it is your business, it will always be my first priority.” Thomas Grey smiles softly, “So, could
you please tell me what you want me to do tomorrow?”
Rachel Stuart takes a deep breath and says slowly, “Cameron Crane was at my house when I came
home today...”
Thomas Grey's eyes suddenly turn cold, but his voice is as low and pleasant as before, “Oh? Did he
make trouble? Or did he still keep bothering you?”
“Yeah, but I scold him back.”
Thomas Grey feels happy instantly, and even his tone becomes much lighter, “you are really my
honey.”
“Then, my parents know about you and me...” Thinking of this, Rachel Stuart is still a little annoyed.
“Ah? How did they know? Did you my sweetheart tell them? I know you my sweetheart love...”
“Shut up!” Rachel Stuart loses control of her temper, “Did you plan to do it last night? Did you leave a
hickey behind my neck and ears on purpose?”
“I just want to keep it as a souvenir. You don't know how much I like you; I like you so much.”
Rachel Stuart is speechless. He always thinks that Thomas Grey on the phone is totally the different
person she saw during the day.
Thomas Grey on the phone is more coquettish.
“Really?” Rachel Stuart remains unmoved, “My dad wants to see you tomorrow.”
On the other side of the phone Silence
Suddenly the phone becomes silent.
Rachel Stuart thinks Thomas Grey is scared. She is about to say something to save the conversation,
but the man on the other end of the phone just says:
“Ok, no problem, I will prepare everything. My father-in-law and mother-in-law will be very like me!
Don't worry, baby!”
But somehow, his vigorous voice makes her afraid.
