“OH MY GOSH, YOU SCARED me Frrr. . . I mean, Mathius” I say, catching his real name before I blurt it out.
My heart is pounding and my blood is heated, I feel flushed all over. I look at him but his gaze isn’t on me, it’s on the strange looking phone that I just dropped.
Shit.
I know damn well that Fred is well aware of the fact that I don’t own the miscellaneous object, lying on the floor like a forbidden object. And well, I’m sure I have a guilty expression on my face, I know I’m busted.
Fred looks at the phone, then looks up at me. When his gaze reaches my eyes, I’m shocked to see that there is a void of emotion, like he isn’t even questioning what I know he suspects.
It means one thing. He heard the conversation.
“Pardon me ma’am, I just wanted to know if you are ready to go?” He inquires with that damn, faux Southern tang and I know that he is still in character.
I’m still frozen though, my heart still pounding. I don’t know what to expect and I don’t know what to say. How much did Fred overhear? I have no illusions in my mind that he just came into my office, he heard something alright. But whatever he heard, he doesn’t let it on
“Of course. I’m just about done here. Can you give me a moment?” I ask, quickly snatching the phone off the carpeted office floor and move around my desk to stuff the damn thing into my bag as deep as possible.
“Sure thang ma’am. I’ll be right outside so we can walk together downstairs.” He says, this time with a pointed expression on his face.
It looks like he will question me about my call, but I will be damned if he tells his employer about my suspicious call. I will have to pacify this situation somehow.
I hurriedly pack my stuff and leave my small office, locking the door after myself. It’s late already and I want to avoid facing Stefan who has been monitoring my movements the whole day since the strange men left the office.
Angry isn’t a word I would use to describe how Demetri was the whole day. He was just plain livid. Livid and embarrassed and he decided to channel all his energy on interrogating me. I told him that the man from earlier really wanted my help with planning an event.
Of course, he didn’t buy that so I told him that the strange guy also asked about the company and if we are making profits or not. This, he did believe.
“That bastard! Who does he think he is?!” Stefan seethes and I just remain quiet.
“If he comes again, I want you to tell me everything he makes you do or the information he demands to know about my damn company.” He burst out and I just nod my head. Experience has taught me that at times it’s best not to verbally engage a heated fool.
