Falling For The Man I Married

Madi's POV:
The next morning, the intercom connecting from the CEO's office beeped and I couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. He's now
calling me?
"Ms Davis, where are you?"
His voice rang from the device.
"Huh?" I asked unconsciously.
"Where's my schedule and my coffee?"
-'Ohh...'-
"Coming Sir." my smile widened as I ran to the pantry. I won.
After making his coffee and getting my note pad, I knocked on his door.
"Come in."
-'Oops! Welcome back to me!'- I smiled as I pushed the door. His familiar scent met my nostrils as I walked into his office.
So it's true.. there's always a first time for everything. Every time I entered his door.. he's always busy either on the paper works
on his hands or his eyes on the monitor, but this time, he's not doing anything. He's just leaning on his chair and his hands were
crossed over his chest.
He watched me walking towards his desk, eyeing my moves as if he wanted to say something but never opened his mouth.
He smirked after I placed the coffee in front of him...on his desk.
I found it creepy but I ignored his stare. I took a deep breath and smiled at him.
"You wanna know now your schedules for today, Mr.Wilsons?" I asked while checking my note pad.
"You haven't greeted me, good morning, Ms Davis."
"Ohh!" I mentally slapped myself. "I'm sorry, Sir. Good morning." how did I forget to greet him? Well, this is also the first time.

"Good morning too, Ms Davis."
And my eyes widened with his words. Did he just greet me too? Whoa!
And I froze when he picked up his coffee.... smiling.
"Fuck!" I cursed unconsciously.
He smiled! He still knows how to smile! Thank heavens!
"Did you just curse me?" he asked furrowing his eyebrows.
"What? D-Did I? I mean...shit!" and my eyes widened again. I said it out loud. "Ohh... I'm sorry Sir, I mean that's just for myself. I
didn't mean to say it out loud. I'm just confused, you know. Because I've found that it's true, there's always a first time in
everything...Ohh...I'm sorry."
When did I start to ramble words? Gosh! This is embarrassing.
But he chuckled right after putting the coffee down. I gulped as I watched him clutching his stomach.
-'God! what did I do for you to witness his smile and laugh? He's so handsome when he smiles and God--- he's so sexy when he
laughed. And he has a dimple on his left cheek, so cute.'-
After a few minutes of 'laughing for I don't know the reason, he straightened again his seat.
"Are you okay, Sir?" I asked unconsciously still looking on his face.
"Yes. Why did you ask, Ms Davis?"
"A-Are you sure you're okay? Don't you have a fever or anything to caused you that way?"
"What do you mean?" he asked, still smiling.
-'Is he really okay? Is he really smiling at me?'-
"Because you smiled. You even laughed. Wow! I'm surprised Sir, you still know how to do it."
Upon hearing my words, his smile instantly dropped and he returned to his cold and serious face again as he looked at me.

-'Oh shit, Madi! Nice way to ruin the moment!'- I bit my bottom lip. I wanted to slap my face.
"I'm sorry," I muttered slowly.
"What are my schedules?" he now back to his zombie mode.
I just shook my head when he looked back at the monitor of his computer.
I read all his listed schedules for the day without hearing any words from him.
"Anything else, Sir?"
"You can go back to work!" He replied without looking at me.
I sighed but not enough for him to hear. I don't know what comes into me but I stood straight and get his attention again.
"You know what Mr Wilsons..." I waited for him to look up and when he did, I continued. "You're really handsome and cute when
you smile."
I praised him smiling and I noticed how he was taken aback by my words.
And with that, I didn't wait for him to say even a single word. I walked towards the double door without looking back and went
out.
When I was finally out, I tapped my face with my both palms. I need to do it because I felt my face burn with embarrassment. I
called him handsome and cute. Shit!, What would he think of me?

When our lunch break comes, I can't help myself but tell Sandy what happened in Mr Wilsons' office. But of course, not those
blushing moments of mine and those sexy things I thought about him.
I dragged her to the far corner of the cafeteria to make sure no one could drop their ears to our conversation.
"What is It Madi, that you really had to pull me to this corner?" she complained with a sour face.
"We need to sit here because what I am about to tell you is a piece of shocking news!"
"Wow.. make it sure I'll be shocked by your 'shocking news'." she mimicked my words but I just smirked.

"Well... he smiled."
"What? Who smiled? Don't tell me it's Mr Wilsons, because that's what we called a miracle---"
"Yes."
"What?" her eyes widened.
"And he even laughed, Sandy!"
"Oh fuck! Are you serious? He smiled and laughed?" her loud voice caught the attention of some employees near our table.
"Hey! Sit down!"
I glared at her when she stood in surprise.
"Are you sure you're not kidding?" she asked almost in a whisper.
"I'm not. I'm telling you, I saw him smile and laugh for the first time." I can still imagine his face.
"Oh my God! That's really shocking news, Madi!" she took her handkerchief and put it on her mouth as she screamed in
excitement.
"See? I told you."
"But how did it happened? I mean, when? Why didn't you call me?" she frowned.
And I told her what happened early this morning and even what happened yesterday.
"Gosh! He did that? He closed the door just to tell you he won't let you leave?"
I nodded.
"That's creepy."
"Yes. Because he wanted me to accept his deal."
"Haist!" she sighed. "What if... you accept his deal?"

"And then what? Help him get his revenge?"
"No! Not that, but to help him to move on and see the bright side of their break up." she leaned back in her seat. "Well, you can't
blame him, he's hurt and it's deep. It changed his whole personality and perspective in life."
A soft chuckled came out from my lips. It's the same with Noelle's words.
"Come on, Sandy. You know what was the real reason why he wanted me to be his wife. We already talked about this!"
"Yeah.. but what if accepting his deal, you become friends and you could help him be himself again?"
"Be himself?"
"Madi... I know you're thinking about his stupid plan against his ex .. and the great amount of money he's willing to spend. But,
I'm here Madi. If you don't want to take the money.. just accept his deal and I'll be the one take it."
She ended her suggestion with a laugh.
I glared at her. "So, you want me to accept his deal because you're up to his money?"
"Just kidding!" and she laughed again.
I watched her as she gave me one of her hilarious laugh and I couldn't help but shake my head.
"Wait! Did he mention anything or what his deal consists of, besides paying you his millions?"
I straightened my seat. "No. Remember, I walked out when he didn't want to tell me half of what happened and yesterday he told
me that if I accepted his offer he would give me a lot of works... cooking for him, polishing his shoes and bringing his suitcase!
My God! He just wanted me to be his maid! I mean... this beauty and brain that I have? No way!"
She ended up coughing after laughing so hard with me.
"I love you, Madi!" she said still laughing.
"I know." and I rolled my eyes.
"That's what I'm talking about, girl." she suddenly became serious.
"What do you mean?"

I also asked seriously.
"You two had different personalities. He's cold and you're warm to people and easy to approach. He's rude sometimes and bossy
but you're down to earth. And he's kinda distant, loner, well, let's just say introvert. But you Madi, you're his total opposite. You're
adventurous and you love taking challenges!"
"Wow! That's long." I'm talking about her speech. I was right when I told Noelle that she and Sandy have the same personality.
But I love them both.
"Is that all you can say?"
"Uhm.. thanks for your long speech, but you forgot one thing." a smile formed my lips.
"And what is it?" she asked confused.
"You forgot to mention that 'I am beautiful." I proudly stated.
First, he glared at me, but after a while, we were both laughing our life out.
"But Sandy, no matter how long and nice your speech was, my answer is still 'no'."
"Madi---"
"No. This isn't just a simple offer, Sandy. We're talking about marriage here. A life challenging offer. If I accepted it, how would I
explain that to my mom?"
She sighed and just shrugged her shoulders.
I don't get married at this age.. not if I found the right one for me. And I never imagined it to be a marriage of convenience. If I get
married someday, it should be my dream wedding... to the man of my dreams and to the man I loved.
