Chapter forty one
Christina cried as much as she could, as she could not hold back her tears.
Then she stared at her phone screen.
“Gosh, it is almost ten,” Tina exclaimed as she dared to touch the famous bar.
She waited for someone to pick up the call as it was ringing she pulled her jacket, revealing her bare arms because the gown she wore was sleeveless, then she placed it on too if her table.
“Hey, McMurray’s Bar is speaking,” someone said from the other side of the phone as Tina put the phone close to her ear.
“Good morning, please. I would like to make VIP reservations for four,” Tina said.
“Okay, I will do that now. By what time is it needed?” the person asked from the other side of the phone.
“In an hour, just make it nice and perfect, also in a very quiet place,” Tina replied as she used her left hand to wipe away the tears from her eyes.
“Okay, I will do just that,” the person said.
“Thank you so much, I appreciate it,” Tina said as she smiled.
“Yeah, you are welcome,” the person said and hung up immediately.
“Phew, thank the goddess, that was already done,” Tina said to herself as she kept her phone on the table.
Then immediately her phone rang, and she swiped the green icon as she placed the phone close to her ear.
“Good morning, Park’s Al Enterprise secretary speaking,” the secretary of Mr. Park said in an Asian accent.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
“Good morning, I was just about to call you to inform you that the VIP reservation has been made at McMurray Bar,” Tina explained.
“Okay, that is perfect. I would inform Mr. Park right away and also inform your boss,” the secretary said.
“Sure, I will also inform Mr. Gavriel,” Tina said calmly as she hung up. Mr. Gavriel followed Tina immediately after she left his office.
He wanted to give her the contact information for the bar where he normally has his meetings.
On getting to her office, the door was slightly open, and he looked in without going in.
He saw her crying, she was crying so much, so bitterly, it was so bad as she sat on her chair, as she was talking, and he heard her loud and clear, she looked depressed, and then she picked up her phone and made reservations for the meeting, which was to be held in less than an hour.
When she was done with the reservation, she answered another call, saying
“The VIP reservation has been made at McMurray Bar,” she said, and after some seconds she hung up.
Then he saw her use her hands to adjust the gown she was wearing, baring almost her chest, which made Mr. Gavriel take a closer look.
“Wow, that is a nice chest, but too bad I burnt it, at least you would have nothing to show off, and no man would come your way knowing you have a burnt chest.” Mr. Gavriel said to himself proudly like he had achieved something great as he swallowed a bump of saliva, which made him lust over her, but no, he would not let lust outgrow his attitude toward her.
When she was done adjusting her sleeveless gown, she applied an ointment to the burn as she made some painful sounds.
Mr. Gavriel gave a devilish smile and headed straight to his office.
When Tina was done applying the ointment, she adjusted her gown back to normal and wore the jacket back as she buttoned it up so no one would see the injury she had sustained.
She thanked God for the fact that she had the jacket with her.
When she was through adjusting her dress, she wiped away the traces of tears on her face, as she wears an ordinary white powder on her face and lip gloss on her plump lips, as she picked up her phone and headed for Mr. Gavriel’s office.
When she got to his office, she discovered that the door was open, so she still decided to knock before entering.
“Come in,” Mr. Gavriel ordered before she could knock.
Tina walked gracefully into his office, and one could not tell she had been crying and weeping some minutes ago. “What is the problem?” Mr. Gavriel asked nonchalantly.
“Nothing is the problem, I just came to inform you that I have booked VIP reservations at McMurray’s Bar and I have also informed the secretary of Mr. Park about the reservation, so they will be there in thirty minutes,” Tina explained the new occurrence to him as she stared at her wrist watch.
“The time now is eleven twenty-six, so you should be there in thirty minutes, and that is all I came to inform you about,” Tina added without leaving a room for Mr. Gavriel to speak.
“If you do not mind, I will be taking my leave now,” Tina concluded as she walked out of Mr. Gavriel’s office.
Immediately she walked out, she took a deep breath as she was happy about her boldness, if not given Mr. Gavriel a chance to reply to anything she had said if not he would have found fault in whatever she did or said.
When she walked into his office, Mr. Gavriel did not know what to say to her, and when she walked in, she came in with a type of aura that he found difficult to explain, and then she started speaking without giving him a chance to reply, and then she walked out.
“Wow, so you are trying to outsmart me,” Mr. Gavriel said to himself as he laughed out loud.
“Christina, I would not stop tormenting you even if you improved on your boldness,” Mr. Gavriel added.
“So you can even act pretentious, a while ago you were shedding tears, and now you are acting like nothing like that ever happened,” he finally said as his phone rang and he picked it up.
Taking a deep breath, he rested his arm on the armrest, placing his phone on his ear.
