Chapter 25: You were bored?!
’’He is your predecessor. He used to be Boss’s right-hand man until he mysteriously disappeared,’’ the man revealed.
The woman was stunned. There were many legends in their company.
For example, take their Boss’s grandfather, everyone talked about him but nobody had seen him. And their Boss’ true love. Given how much of a playboy he was in his private life and a ruthless man on the work front, people assumed that he must have been a sweet guy once and his first love broke his heart which turned him into this.
But in the recent months, the most discussed about legend was this person and his mysterious disappearance. She had always been curious about it too, ’’What exactly is the deal with this man?" she had not been able to see his face but he seemed pretty much normal, with the figure of a teenager probably.
The driver frowned as they walked towards the lobby, ’’Boss used to fire two people every 15 days. But this was the first person, who survived for more than a month...’’
’’I have survived for more than a year already,’’ the woman glared.
’’People say Boss has now lowered his standards. Keeping a secretary or not keeping one is just a formality after this man left his side...’’ freēwēbηovel.c૦m
’’What nonsense!" The woman was speechless, ’’And why are you talking like they don’t have a boss-employee relationship but like that of lovers instead?" Since she was in a high position, nobody at the company dared to approach her, let alone gossip with her so she had never been able to hear the details of this incident.
’’Because they were indeed considered to be a gay pair. It was said that this young man had turned our boss gay,’’ People had guessed wildly but he, as Ryle’s driver had seen his lost puppy look after this man left the company, ’’He was the only person who was never scolded by our Boss but some people had even seen him scolding boss.’’
The assistant got goosebumps, ’’Scolding Boss? Gay pair?"
’’Exactly. Some keen-eyed fellows had even noticed that Boss’ pupils dilated and his face flushed around him...’’ Trained men had good observation skills after all.
’’How could it be? Our Boss can’t be gay. I have literally heard the sound of his activities with girls countless times,’’ she was speechless.
’’Well, maybe Boss bends both ways.’’
’’Or maybe it was to cover his orientation? It’s good that I never developed special feelings for him. Tsk.’’ The woman tsked.
You tried to seduce him in your initial days but he never looked at you twice. The driver thought but he did not expose the woman. He shut his mouth suddenly, realizing that he had gossiped about his Boss due to his excitement. frёeωebɳovel.com
At the same time, he could not help but think how he had wished for a lady Boss earlier so that he could de-stress. But, god seemed to have his own plans. Regardless of whether it was a male or female, he would gladly welcome them with open arms as long as they tamed their wild boss.
Bohooo~ Boss’ scariness and unpredictability have been off charts lately.
While it was chaotic in their heads, the two people in talks were inside the motel room.
Ryle sat on the bed as he crossed one leg above the other. It has been almost thirty minutes since they checked in and the guy had locked himself inside the bathroom.
The room had thin walls so the sound of the intense typing of the keyboard rebounded in the empty space.
Ryle pushed himself to his feet as he went to knock on the bathroom door.
No response.
’’Get out of the bathroom unless you want to be kicked out of the room.’’
That elicited a response. The sound of intense typing on the keyboard paused.
The bathroom door opened and the handsome guy stepped out while holding a laptop in his hand, his lazy eyes glanced at him nonchalantly, ’’What is it?"
Ryle was speechless, ’’I... need to use the bathroom.’’
’’Go ahead,’’ Daisy stepped aside, making more way for him.
Ryle was irked for some reason, ’’You have nothing to say?"
’’Say what?" Daisy glanced at the man.
Ryle almost puked a mouthful of blood.
He was used to firing people. The position of his secretary was quite tricky and he could not help but find most of those people intolerable. If it was guys, then they would cower in front of him. Women... would take their own sweet time in dressing up and trying to seduce him. Getting laid was not usually a bad idea but a good fuck was not what he looked forward to when he worked.
So, when he finally found someone suitable to be his right-hand man, and he decided that he would never fire him, that person took the initiative to run away.
It has been more than a year, almost 2 years since this guy disappeared but Ryle could not decipher the mystery behind it at all.
Just why in the world would someone do that? Leave a highly profitable job. By running away like that, was this guy not afraid of provoking him?
Ryle had tried to look for him but he could not find anything at all. Not a single piece of information.
While he eventually got over it, but this issue kept nagging him at the back of his head. He was not over the grudge that he wanted to settle with this brat.
’’Were you not paid well? Were you not treated well in the company? What the heck did you mean by disappearing suddenly? You...’’ this guy didn’t even turn up his resignation letter. That arrogance, that bratty attitude even left him speechless.
’’Oh, about that...’’ Daisy stepped towards the bed and threw the laptop on the mattress. She stole this laptop from another internet café. She did leave her diamond ring there as compensation though. After all the owner was a girl, ’’I was bored,’’ she answered as she shifted her attention from the laptop as if suddenly remembering the other presence inside the room.
Ryle almost staggered back, suffering a huge blow right there and then. He stood there like a withering flower, ’’You... were bored?" he invested so much time and energy to think about this issue but this...
Uh... the world didn’t do him justice.
