Chapter 45
It was around $ : 30 pm when Lilly walked into my office . “ Boss time to go home , ” she said she already had her bag and parker in her
“ You in a rush ? ” I asked smiling at her .
“ Yes actually . I have a date . You know , where you go out with a boy and have a nice time ? ”
“ Ahhh one of those ! God , I didn’t even know they existed ” I replied and laughed . I got up turning off my computer and grabbing my jacket
“ You sure you don’t ? ” She tilted her head .
“ Lilly nothing is going on with Blake and me . We living in the same building . It’s called carpooling ” I replied and turned off the lights in my office
“ Yeah okay I totally believe you ” she was being sarcastic .
I closed my door and we started to walk towards the lift .
“ Well , it’s what it is so I don’t know what to tell you . ” I stopped in front of Blake’s office and knocked on his door .
“ Coming . 5mins ” he replied .
“ Right , having the CEO wrapped around your little finger is normal then ? We all see it Rosy . ” She replied and checked the time on her watch . “ Hey , I gotta go . You’ll be okay ? ” I nodded and she waved and walked to the lift . I watched her get into and then the doors closed .
I didn’t have him wrapped around my little finger . He was just a very sweet guy .
I walked into Blake’s office and he was hurdled over the back table with folders open in front of him .
“ So everyone’s talking about us , ” I said and plopped down on the sofa .
“ Really ? What are they saying ? ” He asked but kept his head down , studying his files .
“ That somethings going on with us . That we are involved ” I sighed .
“ Hmm well doesn’t sound like you want something to be going on so make something up to keep them from snooping ” he replied .
Was he being serious ? He has been annoying me for the last 3 weeks about marrying him and now he was showing me attitude . Was he tired of asking ?
I got up and walked over to him . He was very engrossed in the file . He didn’t have his jacket on , his tie was sitting on his table and his sleeves were rolled up . He only did that once he was done with the day . So many things I’d noticed about him recently .
I put one hand on his shoulder and gently rubbed it . “ You don’t seem to be in a good mood , ” I said and he turned around to look at me .
“ I’m sorry that was mean . I didn’t mean it that way . ” He rubbed his face . “ I’m just tired today . I feel hot and stuffy and have a massive headache . I think I
may be getting sick ”
“ Well let’s get you home then . You have been overworking yourself ” I turned around to grab his jacket and tie . He grabbed my arm and pulled me back to
him .
“ Is it such a big issue if people think somethings going on between us ? ” He asked .
“ Blake , you’re my boss and a very rich man . Do you know how it looks like when a small town Sales and Marketing Manager ge wealthy CEO ? The word is gold digger ” I replied and moved away from Blake . I turned around and grabbed his jacket and his tie lights .
“ You’re not a gold digger though ” his voice was soft .
a relationship with a ned off the table
“ I know that and you know that but the world won’t look at it that way Blakey . ” I walked over and grabbed my bag from the sofa . “ Come on , let’s ga . We

can get some dinner on the way ”
He nodded and grabbed his phone and keys on the table he was working on .
We got some Chinese food from our favourite place and by the time we got home , Blake was sneezing and coughing more . He had definitely come down with a cold . He went straight to his bedroom to change and I plated some food for us to eat . I made him a honey and lemon tea and get him some medicine
