Get this girl off me!
‘What’s the meaning of this rubbish?’ The corners of his mouth twitched in irritation.
“Whooooo are-you?” The drunk girl narrowed her eyes at him.
Shawn scoffed at this.
Who was he? In his house??? He found it hard to believe his ears.
He lowered his upper body and hunched over the girl in such a way that his head came to the same level as hers. He looked sternly into her eyes in an imposing manner.
He didn’t give a fuck why she was drinking this late at night-it was not his business-but this was his house. Plus, who gave her the permission to touch his belongings? Why did she tamper with his cellar?
All of a sudden, “ah!” Mia gasped.
“Max? Is that you? Max!”
With a swift movement of her hands, she dug her fingers in Shawn’s hair.
“You son of a –” She fisted his hair in each hand and pulled at it ferociously.
Then she began to display.
“Damn Max! Bad guy!”
“After everything-after so many years, how dare you?!”
“You piece of sh-!”Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Mia yelled at the top of her lungs. She jumped to her feet at once and dragged Shawn by the hair, all over the place.
“Aish!” The pull at his hair was so painful that Shawn couldn’t help but yell furiously.
His fine hair…
“Someone, come get this girl off of me!”
He writhed in pain. He could feel his scalp set on fire at the harshness pulling.
But the maids didn’t know what or how to do it. They anxiously gathered to a side and watched the show in sheer horror.
No one had ever tampered with the big boss in such a manner. They were shocked, surprised and perplexed. The maids couldn’t go close to the duo as they were confused about what to do and were thrown into a frenzy.
After several minutes of dragging poor Shawn by the hair, around the dining room, Mia stopped all of a sudden.
Squinting her eyes, she peered at the man with her big round eyes.
Shit!
She let out a loud gasp and hastily released her grip on his hair immediately. She clasped her two hands over her mouth at once.
“Oh, my!” Her eyes blinked rapidly.
“It’s you?”
Thinking that the girl had returned back to normal, Shawn let out a gusty sigh.
The sudden night exercise had left him completely drenched in sweat, and drained to the bones. His chest heaved consecutively as his hands ruffled through his hair.
So many strands fell out to the floor and he immediately shot the girl a murdering glare.
If only looks could kill, Mia would be six feet under the ground right now.
Heaving another sigh, the CEO staggered into a chair while Mia staggered backwards on wobbled legs. She fell into a chair, next to Shawn, and propped her face up on one hand, on the table.
“I’m so sorry, pardon me.” She lowered her head several times, in front of the man.
“I didn’t know it was you. I’m really sorry-very sorry.” She pleaded repeatedly in a sullen manner.
But, a couple of seconds later, her face suddenly turned cold and she threw daggers at Shawn with her eyes, sneering evily.
“You evil man!” She spat out venom.
“You’re waaaaaaaay worse-proud. Arrogant. Selfish maaaaan!”
“Second to the devil-nah, you’re the devil himself!”
“Bad, bad man.”
Immediately after saying these words, her head slumped onto the table with a loud bang.
One second,
Two seconds,
Three seconds,
Snores…
The sound of soft snores filled the air.
Shawn’s eyes blinked blankly for a couple of seconds. He couldn’t fathom…
He stared at the girl like she was a two-headed pig.
Him, arrogant? Selfish? And even worse?!
From the things the girl had said in her drunk state, it seemed her boyfriend broke up with her after years of being together.
How could she compare him to that person? How dare she?
Come to think of it, with this stupid attitude the girl had, he couldn’t blame the guy for breaking up with her.
…
And she’d said he was worse… and proud-really?
The CEO was a hundred percent sure that he was nothing like the girl had claimed him to be.
With a wave of his hand, Shawn dismissed the maids who were still standing, with shock written all over their faces.
Never in their lives had they expected anyone to mess around with the big boss in the manner they had just witnessed. No one-born of a woman-had the audacity to do what that lady had just done. Like…
Even Grandfather Mandez had never treated the big boss in such a manner before. Then…
The lady was done for! Their master would definitely not take it lightly with her by the time she woke up the following morning. He’d send her packing, immediately.
The maids shuffled their feet across the floor as they hurried out of the dining area, each of them lost in her own thoughts.
After they’d left, Shawn’s mouth pressed into a thin line as he gazed at the sleeping girl.
In her case, she wasn’t a sleeping beauty, but a sleeping demon. A little sleeping demon was what she was.
She looked so calm and sweet in her sleep, her fair skin, glowing, yet…
Shawn scoffed.
Him, arrogant?
He would show her the real meaning of ‘arrogant’.
Without further ado, the CEO rose from the chair and headed upstairs, to his room.
The Following Morning:
After feeling repetitive light taps on her back, Mia finally stirred awake grudgingly. Her eyes slowly fluttered open after having fallen into slumber for a long time.
Her whole body ached terribly from the uncomfortable position she ‘d slept in.
As she raised her head from the table, a drool trickled down from the corner of her mouth to the table.
The maid standing beside her grimaced at this.
‘No manners.’
‘Not ladylike.’
‘What’s she even doing here?’
Miranda shook her head, lost deep in thought.
Mia’s eyes squinted as she gazed around, trying to process where she was. The room spun rapidly around her, causing her to feel dizzy. As if that wasn’t enough, Her head began to ache seriously.
It took a while before she finally realized where exactly she was. She was in the dining room.
She had slept off in the dining room. Sigh. She had better head up to her room to get a good sleep.
Everything came flooding back-memories from yesterday.
