Once… CEO Vritra couldn’t keep his hands and eyes off me. But now… I waited for nearly fifteen minutes, but he didn’t glance at me.
Ch-191
After half an hour…
In the Vritra Groups….
"Princess, the CEO canceled your meeting. Please leave," Nicholas said as he flashed.
Last night…. Cyrus got the information that Esther was looking for ways to get Reggie back legally. And he was smart enough to take precautions earlier. He bought the Garcia empire and burned the legal adoption document of Reggie. He used his means and cleared the name of Reggie from the Central Adoption Organization (CRO) records too. And he legally adopted Reggie. It's just useless for her to fight over Reggie's custody from him. If she was here for some other thing, he would have listened and done it for her. But for this thing, he wouldn't allow it. He was so pissed after knowing her actions. So… he canceled the appointment. But his useless men didn't inform her. Now she was here in the company… in fact, on his floor.
"Michelle… Take him away," Esther said.
Last night…. She got a message from Cyrus's phone about the cancellation of their appointment, but she marked the message unread and slept without caring about it. She got to know Nicholas was back in the Vritra group. So she got Michelle to bait him.
Michelle understood Esther's meaning and looked at Nicholas, who stood like a rock not budging from his place. "Come with me. We need to talk about our relationship." She said dragging him away from holding his collar shocked the secretary department at his obedience. Ben wanted to stop her too, but a mischievous thought in his puny little brain stopped him from doing that.
Esther entered Cyrus's office without caring about managers or the people's presence. She went and sat like a queen, as if she owned the place and she was the boss of the company. When she saw them reporting their reports, she took a magazine from the coffee table and started reading it. Her new assistant, Thomas Matthew, stood beside her obediently.
He was surprised by her… *cough* shameless behavior. Again he realized one should be shameless enough to achieve results for their work. With this in his mind, he stood beside her, showing his support to her.
"Mr. Ben, get some snacks for our President," he said as he looked in Ben's direction. Before Ben could answer, he turned around and returned to Esther's side, giving him no chance to reject his 'request'.
Ben's jaw dropped when he heard Thomas's request. This man is just like his boss. He doesn't give a chance to say no. *cough* In fact; he heard these rants from his brother. Nicholas said that Esther was quite ruthless these days and didn't give him a chance to speak or correct his mistakes. He smiled at the sight of Esther sitting there, as if she was waiting for the people to go. Even the managers and the employees sensed the unusual cold war between Esther and Cyrus. They left quickly after they did with the reports.
"Sir, I will come with me to pick snacks to your President's liking," Ben said as he dragged Thomas out of the office.
Thomas wanted to say something. Since Esther said nothing, he understood they needed some privacy. So he followed Ben out.

In the office…
There was a complete silence enveloped in the room. One could hear the only sounds of the page turnings and the occasional tapping of the keyboard in the office. The silence between them could be sliced with a sword.
"Once… CEO Vritra couldn't keep his hands and eyes off me. But now… I waited for nearly fifteen minutes, but he didn't glance at me. What an irony?" Esther said as she broke the long, enveloped silence.
"If that is the reason you came here, then I will give it to you," he said as he got up from his seat and removed his tie while walking towards her.
Before Esther could process his words, he was already standing in front of her. His tall, vast frame was hovering over her. Her eyes widened at his sudden actions and their closeness. He pressed her down and kissed her lips like a hungry beast.

Meanwhile…
Cyrus knew Esther saw the message he sent to her. Despite that, he knew she would come. So, he waited for her. He wantedly asked his staff to submit the work to him directly. Cyrus got bored when he heard the reports. He was waiting for his future wife to enter his place. Cyrus called the hourly staff and paid them double as he made sure that his office was clean. He even arranged white lilies in the empty vases in his office. And when he was expecting his feisty wife, she entered like a queen. He could sense the changes in her body. Even the surrounding aura was different. She sat on the couch, crossing her legs as if she owned the place. When she saw him 'immersed' in the work, she took a magazine and started reading it. Noticing his bored expressions, and the cold war between Esther and Cyrus, they finished their reports quickly and left.
Cyrus noticed the beauty in his office. The beast inside him asking him to mark her and make her his. But he controlled. She wore a white shirt and a purple skirt that reached below her knees. There was a cut on the left side of her thigh, which was only three inches.
He couldn't stop looking at her as she read the magazine. Her beautiful lips, which were painted with her favorite red blood matte lipstick, her round cheeks, big eyes, and the time to time tucking of her hair behind the ear, made him unable to stop his impure thoughts towards her. He tried to divert his attention from her, but the natural scent coming from her body made him unable to divert his attention.
Cyrus felt like… all kinds of meals served in front of him but it's a pity that he couldn't eat them. But he got the chance when he heard Esther's words.
