Aiden Carter checked the time on this phone and saw that it was a little after three and his appointment with the fashion industry he was collaborating with is a little late,he hastened up and headed to his packed car in his company garage,his driver had taken a leave because his wife just put to bed,Aiden had not always fancied marriage and he didn’t see himself with kids in future too,he pulled up at the express but was stuck in traffic.He reached the hotel by around four thirty-eight and he was a little sad that he was the cause of the delay,he has always been the punctual one but today is not just his day,he woke up behind time and have not had a proper meal,waking up late is because of the party that José his friend had practically dragged him to because he has always being bent on always working,he protested and told his friend that partying is not what he wants to be doing now that he is in his thirties but was told that he sounded ancient and is a party pooper,so he went for the party so that his ego will not be bruised but he ended up bruising his schedule
***************************
Clad in her usual joggers and canvas,Sophia Chen was already feeling angry and frustrated,she has been waiting for more that two hours because she came for the appointment around two and is still there,she has ordered only water and the waiters have been casting lousy gestures her way but she still maintained her composure but was still feeling miserable inside because she feels so exposed when people look at her that way,she feels that they always she what she looks like without her clothes and has always been body conscious,she was still wallowing is self pity when she felt someone standing opposite her,she raised her head to see the last person she wants to meet on earth
“Hello,i’m Aiden Carter and you must be Sophia Chen”Aiden said bringing out his hand for a handshake
“Yeah..umm…yeah,I am she”Sophia stammered feeling so agitated,she just met the same man that made her life miserable and still miserable,and no matter how rich and accomplished she had become over the years she didn’t still feel confident,she was still a freaking virgin in her early thirties and she didn’t have the confidence of dating because she didn’t like her body,she still felt very fat and ugly and no amount of gym and dieting could boost her morale .
Aiden looked at Sophia and found her very familiar and he knows that he has never fucked her because if he had done so,he could recognise her large boobs that were not covered even when she is wearing such large clothes,he smiled as he tried remembering where he knew her from but his memory were so fuzzy
“Do i know you or have we met before today? He decided to ask with his business smile on his face
“I don’t think so,my secretary was the one that set up this appointment” Sophia answered without raising up her head
Aiden raised up his eyebrows but decided not to press further sensing the discomfort of his company
“Your spring collection sold out immediately it came out and my textile company needs a good fashion company to work with,we produce good textiles and your company creates good and tangible designs and you have never had any never remarks like plagiarism,i went through your company profile and i also discovered that you have won many awards for your company and also for yourself though you don’t show yourself publicly,your assistant has always been the one and i don’t want to ask the reason because it might be personal,we are just here to sign the contracts”He said bringing out the files
“My Lawyers have drafted the contacts and you should take your time to go through it,everything you need to know is there and the damage control policy is also included but i hope we won’t get to use the policy because i play by the book and i also hope that you do the same”He said handling the contracts to her and she takes it and signs without going through it like he suggested
“I trust your judgment and i will do my best to meet your demands as you meet mine”
“Should we seal the contract with a nice dinner since you have not ordered anything”
“Nope,i have to start going i have been here for long and my assistant might actually file a missing person report if i stay longer”Sophia said this not to sound funny but it’s actually the truth,Ruth her assistant a sixty-five years old woman has always been so protective of her,Ruth was her nanny before she employed her as her assistant so she still acts like a nanny most times.
“See you next time Miss Sophia”Aiden said with his signature smile
“Just Sophia and thanks for choosing my company” She said returning the smug of a smile eager to leave his suffocating presence
Aiden could not take his eyes off Sophia’s behind as they bounced when she left in a hurry,he licked his lips and was still smiling,his phone chimed as he received a message from José
“Have you eaten”
“No,whats’up”
“Can you come to my penthouse i’m feeling so tired and hungry”
“Why?”
“You are my best man and my girl is not in town”
“Do i look like a second option”
“No,please come and bring pizza”
“Okay,i will be there in ten minutes”
Aiden left the hotel without eating and drove to the nearest pizza hut he could see,he ordered cheese and pepperoni pizza with chicken nuggets,he might be the richest CEO but he still loved his chicken nuggets,he was often made fun of for loving chicken nuggets but one can not blame a man for loving what he loves,he takes his order and leaves after paying and tipping the waitress.He always likes tipping and does that to anyone that renders their sevices to him even the call girls,he smiles as he remembers the ass he just saw and decides to push it to the back of his mind and drive with a sane mind and not thinking about it and having a boner.
