When the meeting took place, all the employees outside were all eagerly waiting for the meeting to end just to get a glimpse of the boss' son.

"Have you seen him? Oh G.o.d! I will give him my body for free," one of the secretaries declared.

"Silly! Will he accept your body?" another secretary ridiculed. The other secretary just sneered.

"It's unfortunate, Ma'am Ingrid isn't here now. I just want to see how she would react to the man who replaces her." Freya, Mr. Clint's secretary, giggled at the thought.

"But what I'm curious is if she will be affected by his presence or not?" The other employee said teasingly. And they all laughed.

"I agree. We know how tough she is when dealing with men. Who will bow to whom? Besides, we don't have a chance with the boss' son, but… Ma'am Ingrid has…" another employee teased again.

"I wonder how Ma'am Ingrid will blush if she meets him."

"We will be skinned alive by Ma'am if she hears us talking about her like this." Freya looked from both sides thinking that Daisy is near.

"Daisy's not here. She's in her office, you also know her, the socially inhibited lady." And they laughed.

….

It was already 2:30 in the afternoon when Ingrid arrived in the company. She parked her car and went directly to the elevator; she was scanning her phone while she was waiting for the elevator door to open.

She heard that the elevator door opened and she walked out without looking on her way. She was so focused on her phone that she did notice a man was also walking towards her.

The man stared at her and then stopped in the exact time she b.u.mped into him.

Ingrid almost fell down but she was caught by the stranger almost embracing her on her waist. She felt for the first time in her life being held by a stranger and she did not feel annoyed instead she feels warmed. The manly scent wake her up and alarming bells on her head were now playing.

The man is faking a cough which made her jerked in response.

'Just what am I thinking?! What a shame.' She scolded herself.

"Are you alright, miss?" when Ingrid heard the voice she s.h.i.+vered within. Never in her life had she felt like that.

'Ughh those bedroom voice. It tickles my ears.' Her mind was in chaos. She shut her eyes for five seconds and apologizes to the man.

"Ugh, yes, sorry, I was not mindful on the way. If you will excuse me…" Her mind was still elsewhere and her eyes rooted on the floor. She still feels ashamed of what she was thinking.

She immediately walk away not giving the man a chance to utter a word and without looking at him.

'Shame..' Cliff thought. But then he grinned. 'but I believe we'll still meet one day, again...' And then he walked away.

Ingrid's heart was beating erratically not because she walked so fast but because of the thoughts she was having for the man. She never thought that she could feel or think something like that.

'Are you now perverted?' she feels terrible. There's a knock on her office door; Daisy came in.

"Ma'am, are you alright? You look pale." Daisy came to her immediately and touched her forehead.

"Yes, I am. Thank you, Daisy. Is there anything you need?"

"Uhhhmmm, yes, here are the doc.u.ments that you asked me yesterday and these are the papers that need your immediate response or signature."

"Ahh yes thank you."

"And one more thing, I heard a rumor that the employees have plans to…" Daisy paused and pursed her lips. "it's nothing important anyway, I am going now, Ma'am."

"Is there something wrong, Daisy?"

"N-nothing ma'am. I'll go ahead." Then Daisy walked out hurriedly avoiding her boss stares.

When Ingrid once again alone, her thoughts went again to that incident and she blushed.

'Who is he?' then again she shake her thoughts off and focused on her work.

'Maybe because I'm having my period, that's why I have felt like that. Yuck!' she mumbled.
