Falling For The Man I Married

Madi's POV:
"What is this?"
I got up immediately when the jerk himself barged into my office. He threw the folded white sheet on my table. It's my resignation
letter and this is Noelle's idea.
As she said last time, I should accept the challenge. Well, I listened to her and made my fake resignation letter. She said that I'll
see what his reaction would be against my rejection of his deal.
I put it on his desk early this morning, and now I can't believe my two eyes see him in front of me with a sour face. I refrained
from smiling and looked straight at him.
"Good morning, Mr Wilsons. It's my immediate resignation letter." I proudly answered.
-'See? You can't take to eat your words.. hmp!"
But his sour face now turned darker. His eyebrows formed a straight line as he narrowed his eyes at me.
"I'm not an idiot for not noticing it's a resignation letter, Ms Davis!"
-'Oops! No, You're not.'- my mind screamed inside.
"Why are you resigning?" He slammed both of his palms on my desk.
I really wanted to raise an eyebrow but I refrained myself.
"Because I thought that was what you wanted me to do."
He blew an annoyed breath as his eyes filled with rage.
"What are you talking about Ms Davis? Did I tell you to resign? Did I asked you to do it?"
-'Now.. you know my name again. Huh! Do I need your permission?'-
"Because you don't want me to do my job anymore. So I thought, you don't longer need my service and that you just can't tell me
directly. That's why I filed that resignation notice so I can find another job as soon as possible." I replied calmly.

But to my not-so-surprised reaction, he picked up the white sheet again and tore it into two...four...six...eight... and I don't know
how many pieces it was all.
I faked my horrified expression as I looked him in the face again.
"You're not going to resign!"
His voice boomed in all four corners of my office.
I let out a snicker. "But why Sir? I don't have much work to do because half of it, you passed it to your secretary which wasn't her
job. And I don't want to get that high compensation without using my hands in fairways. That's unfair to my coworkers who have
shed blood and sweats just to earn like what I have."
"Then accept the deal! So you're no longer thinking of having that salary without being tired. I'll give a lot of things to do. You can
cook for me..." my eyes started to widen as well as my mouth. "...choose the suit I have to wear, clean my stuff, bring my
suitcase, polish my shoes-----"
"Wow! Wow! Wait! You don't need a wife for that, Sir! What you need is a maid! A slave--- a personal slave!"
At that moment, the horrible look on my face turned real. My goodness!
"You want me to accept your deal just to become your maid? Wow! No way!"
"Whatever you may want to call it, but you're not going to resign! No matter how many bunches of resignation letters you put on
my desk, I won't allow you! If you still do, I will get the copy of your signed contract from the HR and make sure that you will pay
the charges for abandoning your contract. You only work here for two months and based on the contract, you have to stay
employed for a year to compensate all the company's expenses for hiring you and paying your taxes."
-'huh! wow! Do you think I don't know that?'- I wanted to shout but I chose not to.
"Fine! I won't resign, but give me back my normal workload."
I sighed when he didn't utter a word, he's just looking at me. When he walked towards the door, I expected him to go back to his
office, but to my surprise.. instead of going out, he closed the door.
I immediately approached him to ask why he had closed the door.. but he just took three long strides and instantly found himself
in front of me. He grabbed my arm and our noses almost touched. Our breaths mixed and I could smell his minty breath fanning

across my face.
I'm not a blushing person.. or a blushing girl or whatever you may call it.. but dear God, I can feel my face heated up by our
sudden proximity.
-'Oh God!'-
My stomach churned as my small and large intestine turned upside down.
"Resignation Ms Davis is not the best way to get away from me." he pulled my arm, bringing his mouth near my ear and
whispered... "Accept my offer. If I have to double or triple the money to convince you more, I will. But let me tell you, I don't easily
take 'no' for an answer."
His warm breath tickles my neck, sending shivers down my spine. I gulped and took all my control not to close my eyes.
-'Oh my! What is this feeling?'-
I silently asked my inner self when he let go of my arm.
I looked at him, his eyes held different emotions and it's the first time I've seen those from him. But as usual, he masked it
instantly in not even a second.
"Keep that in mind, Ms Davis."
With a smirk, he walked back to the door without any looking back.
When he's finally out of my sight, I suddenly felt my knees buckle and I had to sit on the nearest chair before it gives up and I
end up falling to the floor.
-'Whew!'-
I let out a heavy sigh as I put my right hand over my raising heartbeat.
So, I got his real reaction.
"Argh!"
