His Lovely Obsession (English)

(Stacey)

She is drawing some designs when Cherry pulled a chair and sat next to her.

"Stacey can I ask you a question?" she heard her asked and she just nodded while continuing what she's doing.

"I am really curious. How many boyfriends have you had? "

Without looking at her, she answered." I never had a boyfriend. " She threw the secretary a glance.

"Get out of here! You are too gorgeous! No boyfriend since birth? Bah! " Cherry said to her with her eyes wide in disbelief.

"I am telling you the truth." she said matter-of-factly with a small smile then continued drawing.

"No way! That is really unbelievable! If I were in your shoes, I would probably have a lot of rich and good-looking boyfriend! Geez louise Stacey ! Don't let your beauty go to waste!" Cherry said which made her laugh quietly before she raised her face to look at her again.

"Hold on! I have a bright idea ! Let me introduce you to someone! He's single and works at an IT company ! Yes! Yes! I know that you will like Steve!! " Cherry said sounding giddy.

"Aren't you supposed to be working Miss Mendez?!" an authoritative voice asked.

Both she and Cherry looked up and saw Nick's angry face. She stopped herself from rolling her eyes. Monster boss strikes again. She just went back drawing. It's better for her to just ignore him.

"Sorry sir. I was just having a 5-minute break." She heard Cherry say to him as she pulled the chair back to her own table.

"Miss Ledesma! Gather your things! We'll go to one of my auto-detailing shops and the new site where they are constructing a new building! You will make the ad designs for them! I'll wait for you at the basement parking. Hurry up!" he ordered as he heads to the door.

She started organizing her things as soon as Nick's back disappeared.

"Oh my God Stacey! You are really special! This is the first time sir PTEF will do such a thing!" Cherry giddily whispered but loud enough for her to hear.

"Do what?" she asked the secretary before getting her backpack to put the stuff she needs. She is ready to go.

But Cherry hurriedly walked to her and stopped her from following Nick by her hand on her forearm.

He just orders the company driver to bring her or him there. And now he is going with you?! Tsk! Well actually I am not surprised because like sir Billy, sir Nick probably finds
