Jason walked out of Alice's room with a face held in anger.
"What do you need to come here, Sean?" Ask Alice flatly.
Sean smiled and handed the bouquet of white roses to Alice. "May you like it."
"Thank you."
Alice placed the bouquet on her desk.
"Actually I'd like to talk about the Suarez Corps tender, and take you to lunch together." Sean said kindly.
"It's not even if you're busy." Added.
Alice sighed softly.
"Actually I would also like to discuss about the continuation of that tender. Can we talk about it another day? Because today there's a lot of things I need to get done." Said Alice.
"That's no problem. Looks like you need some time alone."
"Thank you for your understanding, Sean. My men will call you later. And again thanks for the flowers." Said Alice with a big smile.
"alright. Just relax Alice and don't make this a burden. Then I'll go first."
Sean immediately stood up and walked towards the door.
"What if it's noon tomorrow?" Alice asked who stopped Sean's footsteps.
Sean turned around with a happy face.
"By pleasure." Answer Sean.
"May I ask you something, Alice?"
"Of course."
"Mh... What was that guy...?"
"He's just one of Quinn Cooperation's business partners. If that's what you want to know." Answer Alice.
Sean smiled happily.
"See you tomorrow afternoon. Have a good day, Alice."
Shortly after Sean exits, Bella walks into the room with Alice's previously booked lunch online. When Sean and Billy get out of the elevator, Jason stops them. Jason hasn't left Quinn Cooperation.
"Why are you stopping us?" Billy asked, not accepting.
Jason just glanced at him. His eyes focused more on Sean.
"I'm warning you. Don't try to get close to Alice. She's mine." Jason warned.
Sean laughs.
"Who are you?" Ask Sean.
"I am a man close to her." Jason answered, making Sean laugh louder.
"If I don't want to, what?"
"You!" Jerk Jason.
"Alice told me that your relationship is only a business associate, nothing more." Said Sean.
Jason's hand immediately pulled Sean's collar with a reddened face. The eyes of the two of them stared at each other fiercely.
"Hey, release! Keep your hands off my boss." He snapped at Billy while clutching Jason's hand.
Jason let go of his hand and slightly pushed Sean's body backwards.
"I warn you once again. Stay away from Alice or you'll regret it later!" Threaten Jason before going away from Sean and Billy.
Sean fixed his shirt and suit.
"You okay, Boss? Do we need to teach that man a lesson?" Ask Billy.
"No need." Answer Sean.
Sean and Billy leave Quinn Cooperation. While Alice and her two assistants did not go to several divisions to catch other mice that were still wandering.
The next day, Sean accidentally holds a meeting with Alice at an Italian restaurant. Sean's heart blossomed, finally he was able to eat with Alice. Despite under the guise of discussing their tender. Sean had also prepared a bouquet of yellow roses for Alice. It didn't take long for Alice to arrive at the restaurant, as Alice was the type of person who was very disciplined with time.
"I hope you like these flowers and this restaurant, Alice." Said Sean.
"Thank you." Answer Alice.
Sean and Alice immediately discussed the continuation of the Suarez Corps tender. Both look very professional at work. Sean is made to be amazed by the brilliant ideas that Alice conveys for the smooth running of their tender. Their togetherness did not escape the eyes of Jason who had been stalking them since.
Day after day Alice went through by immersing herself in a pile of important files. His partnership with Sean for the Suarez Corps tender went well. The two began eating together frequently to discuss their tender. Alice and Sean seem to be getting closer and closer. This makes Jason even more angry and devise an evil plan.
Geck.. Geck.. Geck...
Alice's door opened, and Alice's beautiful assistant entered the room.
"Sorry Miss, someone wants to see you." Report Bella.
"Who?" Ask Alice.
"A woman named Katherine Alonzo." Answer Bella.
Alice scrunched her forehead because the name felt foreign to her.
"All right, get him in."
A beautiful brown-haired, white-skinned and Alice-sized woman walked into the room gracefully.
"Good day." Greet the woman.
"Good day, Miss. Please sit down." Reply Alice.
"Well Miss Alonzo, what need did you come here for?" Ask Alice.
"Just go. My name is Katherine Alonzo. I'm Sean Parker's fiancee." Reply to the woman while emphasizing the word "engagement" in front of Alice.
Alice pursed her lips to make Katherine look confused.
"Why does this woman look so relaxed? He wasn't even surprised at all." Inner Katherine.
"alright. My name is Alicia Quinn. You can call me Alice. Now tell me, what's the point of you coming here, Katherine? Let me just call you a name to make it seem more relaxed." Ask Alice.
Katherine nodded in agreement. "Just go ahead, Alice. I came here to tell you to stay away from my fiance, Sean."
Alice chuckled softly.
"Sorry Katherine. I can't." Answer Alice.
"What did you say?" Katherine's snapping can't believe it.
"Once again I say, I can't stay away from Sean." Repeat Alice with a smile.
"Why don't you want to stay away from Sean? Have you fallen in love with her?" Ask Katherine.
"Baseless woman shameless. Sean's engaged and soon we're getting married. You need to know where you are." Snap Katherine.
"It seems you misunderstood. My relationship with Sean is as a business associate. We are working together to finalize the tender from Suarez Corps. Therefore, I can't stay away from Sean as long as our cooperation contract hasn't expired." Alice explained.
Katherine fell silent.
"Why are you silent? Don't you trust me?" Ask Alice.
"Sean likes you." Katherine said while holding back jealousy.
"Then?"
"You must have known, right?"
"Yes. Sean has already expressed his feelings for me." Alice answered clearly.
Katherine's face turned red with anger. "Then, what about you? Do you love Sean too?"
"Honestly, I like Sean. Because of his amazing work professionals. Sean never mixes personal affairs with work. Yes even though he also kept trying to get close to me."
Katherine widened her eyes hearing Alice's honesty.
"But when it comes to love..." Alice paused her speech making Katherine even more curious.
Alice shook her head.
"Why not? Sean is a handsome, intelligent, successful and wealthy businessman." Sue Katherine.
Alice laughed softly.
"I was also born in beautiful condition and from a rich family with a rich treasure. My life has never lacked one bit. Don't equate me with the cheap women out there whose hobbies are chasing the rich men to get their property. My degrees are way above them." Said Alice.
Katherine clenched her hands looking at Alice's arrogance. Alice leaned her body.
"You're wrong to look for an opponent. If I want to, right now I can destroy the Alonzo Family business to the point of no silence." Alice said slowly but with great emphasis.
Katherine rounded her eyes. Alice held her body back with a smile.
"You better get out of here and meet your fiancee. Make him love you." Said Alice.
Katherine immediately stood up and left Alice's room without saying a word. Bella was surprised to see Katherine walk out of her Boss' room with an angry face. Bella went straight into Alice's room.
"Is Miss okay?" Ask Bella.
"Yes." Yeah." Alice replied relaxed.
"If you may know who Katherine Alonzo is, miss? And why does he look so angry when he comes out of this room?" Bella asked curiously.
"He's Sean's fiancee."
Bella rounded her eyeballs. "T-is engaged to Mr Sean?"
Alice nodded. Bella drops her body on the sofa and surprises Alice. Bella grunts annoyed.
"Why do you look upset? Are you jealous and heartbroken that Sean already has a fiancee?" Ask Alice.
Bella wastes her rough breath. "Of course I'm upset and angry. How dare Mr Sean approach Miss when she already has a fiancee? Even Mr. Sean was blatantly showing his attention to Miss."
"Love clapped one hand." Said Alice
"You mean Miss, Mr Sean doesn't love his fiancee?"
Alice nodded. "It looks like a matchmaking result."
Bella took a long breath.
"I always thought Mr. Sean was the only man who deserved to be Miss's life partner. You two look very compatible, one handsome and the other beautiful. I really hope you can be together."
Alice rolled her eyes lazily. Bella widens her eyes. He smiled towards Alice, making Alice glare.
"Follow away that silly idea of yours. I'm a classy, self-respecting woman, Bella. I don't want to be the third person among them." Firm Alice.
"Miss just said that a woman's love clapped one hand. That means there's still a possibility for Miss and Mr. Sean to be together." Bella's great-grandson.
"Are you tired of working with me, Bell?" Alice asked with a cold face.
Bella gulped her saliva rough.
"Oh of course I'm still at home Miss. Then I'll go back to work." With a quick step Bella immediately out of Alice's room.
Sean's car just left Parker Groups almost midnight. There's a lot of work to be done with Billy. It was also deliberately done so that he was free from Katherine who had come two days ago. Sean knew if Katherine's sudden arrival there must be interference from his father.
"Bosses. Looks like someone's following us." Billy said as his eyes continued to stare at the rearview mirror.
A black sedan drove right behind them.
"Who are they? Were they sent by my business rivals?" Ask Sean.
"I don't know, Sir." Billy said as he sped up his car.
The black car kept tailing in the back. Sean and Billy are convinced that they are really being followed.
"Be careful Bill and stay calm."
Dorr... Dorr..
Sean's car tire is shot and Billy loses control. The car slipped and hit a big tree hard. The black car that had been following Sean's car had quickly passed by.
To be continue ...
