His Lovely Obsession (English) novel Chapter 30

FUCKING HELL! She is flirting with Billy!" Nick thought furiously as he glares at Stacey.

Stacey almost released an exasperated sigh. Her monster boss is already in a bad temper this early Monday morning. He doesn't have the wound dressing anymore but the bruise on his jaw is still a bit visible. But she feels that it's so unfair because his hotness can't be denied even when he has a slight discoloration on his jaw and a heavy frown. Cherry is right. Nick Alcantara is sizzling. He looks ever hotter in his business suit. PTEF suits him.

Cherry immediately went back to her table after saying a quick good morning to Mr. Grumpy.

Billy, looking unaffected by Nick's anger, smiled at him. "Good morning mate! Happy Monday!" he even saluted him but Nick ignored him.

"Miss Mendez! Are you done with Miss Ledesma's orientation ?" he asked Cherry in a voice with a trace of irritation.

The secretary looked guilty. "Not yet sir." she answered in small voice.

Nick's expression became grimmer. " Then why on earth are you wasting time chatting? Tell her what she needs to do now because I want her in my office in 15 minutes! " he demanded like a king.

Cherry just said yes while avoiding looking at his eyes. She on the other hand pouted. She is looking at Mr. Grumpy whose steely eyes are also on hers. Billy is just quietly observing what's happening.

"Did you hear that Miss Ledesma? Be in my office in 15 minutes!" he coldly said to her. His eyes have a certain glint as he looks at her.

His attitude is really annoying and she wants to say something about it but of course, she held her tongue. "Yes I did sir. Would that be all? " she asked in a very polite way.

He didn't answer her but a muscle jerked in his jaw. Without tearing his eyes from her, he said," "Follow me to my office Billy!"

She thought he will not move yet but thankfully after a few more seconds, he turned and started to walk to his private office.

When his back was on them, Billy mouthed sorry to her with an apologetic smile. She just nodded and smiled at him too. Unfortunately, Mr. Grumpy turned his head and saw their exchange. Stacey thought she heard him cursed. She bit her lower lip.

"BILLY!" he angrily called after halting.

He stepped aside to let his friend go first. He is almost glaring at her again. When Billy moved, she turned to talk to Cherry. She had too much of Nick's arrogance.

(Nick)

He is ready to blow a fuse. Billy has a stupid grin as he went inside his office. He slammed the door and faced him.

"WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT ALL ABOUT?" he rasped.

"Mate! Just chill." Billy said calmly as he raised both his hands." I am not going to fight you. You are my best buddy you know that. " he said with a chuckle.

"Chill?!! You are asking me to fucking chill? It's barely 8:30 AM and you have the fucking guts to flirt with my new graphic designer?! What the hell are you doing here this early anyway?! " he barked at him as he went to his personal fridge to get a beer. He didn't even bother to give or offer him like he used to. He angrily sat on his swivel chair and opened his beer. He gulped some of it before he put the can on the table with a thud which made Billy cock one brow.

"Don't you think it's also a little early to be having that? What's bugging you, mate?" Billy asked as he pretends to be interested in some papers on his table. He picked up one folder.

"Put that down!" he shouted at him.

Billy faked a scared expression before quickly putting down the folder. "Whoaa dude! Will you cool it? Why are you so grumpy this morning? And why is Stacey working here? " He asked him with a heavy frown. He sat down on the chair in front of his desk.

He heaved a sigh before answering. "This is better than her singing in that bar. " he said in a surprisingly calmer voice. With one more gulp he finished off the beer. He crashed the can with his hand.

He saw Billy's eyes lit up.

"Dang mate! At first you bought all the June issue of Not Eye Candy magazine where she is the cover. Now you got her to work for you! I sure hope that you are not planning to make her your woman like her sister! That is very bad dude! You can't let them have a cat fight over you!"

"Will you just fuck off?! Do something with your filthy mind! Look! If you don't have anything important to say, get out of my office! I have a hectic schedule today so stop wasting my time!" he said to him in an exasperated voice before turning on his laptop.

Billy chuckled as he stood up. He got something from his pant's back pocket.

"Here!" he said as he tossed a folded magazine on the table."Delivery!" he said with a grin." But I don't think you will be interested in that because the cover and centerfold model is different. Besides, you have the supposed to be Miss June working for you who is way hotter than the new model." he said with a wink.

He glared at him. "Didn't I tell you to stop calling her that?!!" he said, gritting his teeth.

"Sorry mate! I am only human. I am bound to make mistakes you know!" he joked and he narrowed his eyes at him.

But what Billy said next made him utter a bad word.

"I am really curious mate! Who do you like more? Heather or Stacey? "

"If you don't zip it , I will charge you for all the accessories which were installed in your new car! " he threatened him.

"Okay! Okay! I am leaving! Sorry mate! Just my two cents, both are very pretty but Stacey is hotter!" he said as he moved his hands to describe an hour glass body.

"DAMMIT BILLY!" he furiously stood up and threw his empty beer can to him.

Billy burst out laughing as he tried to avoid the empty tin. That's when they heard a knock.

"You are so touchy dude! No worries! I am really leaving so you can relax. " Billy chuckled as he walked towards the door.

He snorted as he still glowers at his friend. His eyes became half slits when Billy opened the door. Stacey is outside. He muttered a curse when Billy said hi to her again. She just nodded at Billy and released a small smile before she looked at him.

"Sir, you told me I should come here after 15 minutes." she said, her voice is void of emotion.

His jaw clenched. Her smile is gone and her face is passive now that she is talking to him.

"Close the door behind you Billy! Expect the bill of your car's accessories on your table this afternoon." he said tonelessly while he keeps the eye contact with Stacey.

SHIT! She looks delicious!-He thought. Now he can see clearly what she has on and how she looks like this morniing. He felt his dick reacted.

"Dang mate! I'm sure you are joking. I said sorry already! Don't send the bill! Be charitable dude! " he said before turning his head again to look at Stacey.

"Good luck Miss Beautiful. It was really nice to meet you. I'm sure that I will be seeing more of you. " he said with a beam.
