The Proud Boss Lady.

Chapter 44: 44



"Sorry, I didn't ----- Noah?" Soraya called out to her ex surprised. The last time he left her house, she hadn't seen him heard from him since. He looked more handsome than before.

I thought he was just a P.A? she couldn't help but wonder as she spotted the car he drove.

"Ah, her majesty Soraya Wayne. How are you doing?" he inquired

"I've been better," she smirked.

"Loverboy too, ?" he referred to Zed.

"We both doing good Noah, actually great." she nodded.

"Good to hear, and I hope you are being nice to him as well?" he asked her.

"Wh-what do you mean?" she raised a brow.

" I said I hope you're treating him good? Respect and all? he rubbed his chin as he watched her fumble with her words like a pregnant fish. "Thought as much, it was good seeing you. Enjoy your day and I hope you don't loose him too." Noah added sitting in his car and driving off. Yada, yada, yada, ya!

I remain Soraya, Wayne.

No one can beat that. She said to herself as she walked to her car.

"Well, I guess she was his first love that's why they keep making their way into each other's arms. On a real no man would love to be in a disrespectful relationship, no matter how rich the woman is, the guy deserves some respect, she owes him that at least!" Noah said to himself as he parked in front of Freya's office. He had wanted to surprise her but he didn't know how to until she mentioned what type of things moved her. He locked the car and headed into the building humming and whistling to himself.

"Carla, how's the design I asked you guys to work on going?" Freya asked walking into her office.

"It's done, I kept a sample on your table," she responded as she took the piece of clothing.

"The pleats in the dress are too small, enlargen it a bit. That way it would be easier to iron, and the neckline is too high and tight, lower it a bit," she instructed.

"That all?" Carla looked up from her notepad.

"Yeah, that would be all," she said as she spotted Noah at the door.

"Hey," he walked towards her.

"Hi, I wasn't expecting you," Freya said offering him a seat.

"Oh, I could go if you're that busy." he tried to mask the tone of hurt in his voice.

"No, I didn't mean it like that. I'm sorry." she immediately apologized.

"It's fine," he added.

"Are you sure? I'm sorry I was stressed out and didn't mean to take it out on you." she continued to apologise

"Freya, it's alright, I get it." he smiled at her.

"If you say so," she said as he set a box in front of her and a bouquet of her favourite flowers, as well as a gift bag from Gucci.

"Ummmm..." she trailed off as he gave her the go-ahead to open it.

The box contained a red velvet cake and a box of dark and white chocolates, and the gift bag contained the most beautiful pearl earrings and necklace she had ever seen. She was speechless. She had received gifts from other people, but this... it was absolutely beautiful.

"Noah... I- thank you very much." she smiled at him with tears of joy in her eyes.

"You deserve this and so much more, I know we decided to take it slow, but I can't help it. I'm falling for you and in falling real fast," he confessed.

But you don't need to say anything yet, take your time. I just wanted you to know how I feel about you," he told.

She smiled at the man in front of her. She hadn't known him for so long but one thing she knew about him is that he is a good guy and she was beginning to like him.

"Thanks, Noah." she thanked smelling the flowers he gave her.

"Into the thick of it

Into the thick of it

Into the thick of it (ugh)

We're tramping through the bush

On and on, we push

Into the thick of it

But we can't see where we're going

We've made a stellar start to find our jungles heart

But all we'll find is nothing if we can't see where we're going

Into the thick of it

Into the thick of it

Into the thick of it

But we can't see where we're going

Into the thick of it

Into the thick of it

Into the thick of it

But we can't see where we're going (ugh)

The jungle's kind of tricky, the path is never straight

And sometimes there's no path at all, which makes it hard to navigate

Although the jungle's thick, we're moving through it quick

But that won't do us any good if we're going around in circles..."

"Wait, where's the song playing from?" Freya asked Noah who couldn't hide his chuckles.

"It's- it's a customised card in the flowers, I'm sure it's slightly opened that is where the song is playing from," he answered.

"Noah, you know that song irritates me right?" she cutely pouted.

"The more reason I had it made, I wanted to see the reaction on your face, and I got it on camera." he wiggled his phone in front of her.

"But I can't stand the why are you cutting my cake?" she sent him a glare.

"Open wide," he instructed her as she opened her mouth taking a bite of the piece of cake. He put some of the icing on her nose unawares. The taste of the cake hit her buds, she didn't realise what was going in around her. He had taken a couple of pictures of her, with red icing on her nose.

"My new wallpaper," he showed it to her.

"Noaaaaaah.." she whined as he laughed at how cute she looked.

"Freyaaaaaa," he mimicked her..

"I look cute in the picture though," she flipped her hair at him.

"You look absolutely stunning." he complimented.

"Thanks, darling," she winked at him wiping the icing off her nose.
