198 Our Love Story- 12: His Girlfriend Without Her Knowing

However, Quinn always occupied with his work particularly on his business trips and meetings out of the country with the International investors.

Ca.s.sie has been busy as well on her paper works now it is her last year in Senior High. They were constantly having field demos and projects that stressing not only her but the whole bodies of Senior students.

Underneath a tree is a round table where Ca.s.sie and Joanna along with their group mates, they were discussing the Theme for their projects to submit next week. They were a.s.signing each one to lighten the work.

In the middle of their lunch break, Joanna makes fun of Ca.s.sie's phone taking selfies and groupies. Joanna then uploaded them on Ca.s.sie's Instagram which Quinn saw it as he was stalking as usual.

The first photo is Joanna taking a selfie of herself but behind her is Ca.s.sie who currently reading a book. Quinn zooms in the photo as he was familiar with the book, and he was right, it is the latest hardcover edition of the famous authors Louisa May and Tim Johansson, a couple in real life.

The second photo is a stolen shot of Ca.s.sie, then the next one is she already smiling big and playing with the camera. And the last two photos were included their cla.s.smates standing behind them and doing funny faces.

Jealousy struck his heart, he often saw these boys on Ca.s.sandra's posts. But who is he to get jealous? They were mere to be called 'friends' or so what he a.s.sumes, as what Ca.s.sandra thinks of him?

They were just barely exchanging text messages every day, especially that he often out of the country. He was concerned about how it will cost for Ca.s.sandra on replying to his text message if ever so.

Of course, how it would be looked like for Ca.s.sandra if he will offer to pay her phone bills? To put it like that, he was like her Sugar Daddy and it sounds indecent to the ears.

Quinn chuckles on his own thoughts that make Leeroy and Meisha glance at each other.

As usual, Meisha is his companion on every out of the country meetings and Leeroy is his bodyguard and a Butler since he was a kid.

Quinn continued contemplating his own thoughts and debating how he can keep in touch with Ca.s.sandra when he was abroad.

He can't help as he doesn't have a Facebook account, and he's not interested to make one. However, creating another Instagram account looks fine, maybe. Ah, he looks ridiculous with his crazy ideas.

On a small scene, Meisha and Leeroy cannot avoid not to feel astounded while peeking at their boss on the rearview mirror. Seeing their boss smiling alone is like?

Meisha and Leeroy smirk, they have an idea to that smile.

"We're here, Master Quinn," Leeroy announced.

Quinn waited for Leeroy to open the car door, he then steps out and walks straight towards the hotel entrance door.

"Leeroy, call the TJ Publis.h.i.+ng Company, I want you to schedule a lunch meeting with Tim tomorrow."

"Understood, Master."

Leeroy bows at him, he resumes stepping inside the hotel and meet his investors to one of the fancy restaurants here.

"Ah, finally, he's here!"

"Good evening, President Anderson," Quinn greeted this old man.

"Hah! To think that I am expecting for you to bring your girlfriend tonight!"

Quinn laughs but he didn't comment on it. He just remains grinning, showing he wanted to stay it on his privacy.

Until now, they still believed that the rumors are true. It may be like, he was taking advantage of the rumors and letting them imagine that she is his woman so that he will be free from their doubts and the annoying offers to an arranged marriage.

Even so, Ca.s.sandra already has a special place in his heart. Can he a.s.sume that she is his girlfriend without her knowing?

With this thought, Quinn didn't notice that he kept smiling and the old men around the table tease him.

"Ah, I remembered when I fall in love with my wife. I often smile alone!" Mr. Thomas Garcia jested, he is one of the investors of their US-based company.

The other gentleman also shared their younger days silliness having a girl they crush on.

Quinn just stays listening and laughs along with the old men. He may be the youngest and the boss to correlate, but tonight, he wanted to keep the relations.h.i.+p as the normal men and not as businessmen.

He knew this will be more strengthen their partners.h.i.+p and he will earn their respect even more.

Another week had pa.s.sed. Ca.s.sie was exhausted the whole week but finally, it's a one-week semestral break for them.

"h.e.l.lo, Auntie Ling!" Ca.s.sie greeted her nanny who was currently watering the front yard garden.

"Ca.s.sie, welcome back. Wait, I'll prepare a light snack for you."

"Thank you, auntie Ling!"

"You're welcome. . . oh, there is a package for you."

"Really? From Mama and Papa?" She asked excitedly.

"Ah, no. It's from the States, I guess?"

Ca.s.sie follows Ling inside the Villa then she spotted the package on the coffee table. She rushed towards it and read the sender's name and address.

Ca.s.sie was stunned. The package stated that it was from the TJ Publis.h.i.+ng Company.

She hurried to open the package to find out it was her favorite authors and it is the next edition of her favorite book! She jumps and screams.

"What happen!?" Auntie Ling runs in the living room to see what's going on with Ca.s.sie.

Ca.s.sie was rolling around the sofa bed while she is kicking the cus.h.i.+on.

"Yay! Auntie Ling! I can't believe it!"

"Huh? What?"

"Someone sent me a book, auntie Ling!"

"Goodness! I thought about what happens to you! It is actually just a book."

"Auntie Ling! It's not just a book!" she sat up.

Ca.s.sie can't tell the woman that it is not about the book even though it is her favorite one. . . but the person who sent it.

Yay! Am sorry, Mama! Am sorry Papa! This will be my favorite gift from now on! She giggles on her own thoughts.

The book was actually not yet announced its release date. Although the authors already give a hint, she was really surprised.

Ca.s.sie once again read the message written on the first page of the book. She can't believe how he able to pull something like this? Who really is he?

"Hoping you had a great day."
