His Personal Bed Partner - Chapter 9 Why It Has To Be Me?

The next day, inside the CEO office. Kaylee and Liam are sitting on the couch with a laptop in front of them. Because Christopher canceled all of his schedules these past few days, a lot of works are needed to compile. Seeing Christopher and Liam are so busy, Kaylee can’t hold herself anymore. “Are you sure you don’t want me to help?” Christopher looks at her and smiles. “We’re fine.”

Kaylee let out a sign and plug her earphone in the laptop and play music. ‘It’s her first day in the office yet all she can do is listen to the music.’ After sometimes, Christopher’s telephone rang. “Hello?” On the other line, his secretary said in a calm voice. “President, your mother is on the way to your office right now. She just gets on the elevator.” Christopher was taken aback when he heard that. He covers the mouthpiece of the telephone and looks at Liam and Kaylee.

“Liam help me put these contracts there,” Christopher said as he pointed the table in front of Liam and Kaylee. “Mom is here.” Upon hearing that, Liam stood up and get some contract from Christopher’s table and put it on the table in front of Kaylee. “Okay, thank you!” Christopher said to his secretary as he hangs up.

Christopher’s office is on the top floor of the Jarvis Empire. His table is placed in the center of the office, behind that is the tinted glass wall. On the right side, a long ‘L’ shape table was placed. Liam’s table is near the office’s door, while Kaylee’s table place near a Christopher’s private room’s door. On the left side, the two long couch was placed, facing each other and a table in between, a single size couch places in the middle facing the door.

“Damn it!” Christopher murmured as he sat on the middle couch. “Why is she here?” Christopher looks at Kaylee calmly and looks at Liam. “I don’t know.” Kaylee holds her breath, this is her first time meeting important people other than the two. ‘What if she made a mistake?’

“Breathe, Kaylee.” Kaylee looks at Christopher and nodded. Seeing the nervous Kaylee Liam said. “You must address her Madam or Madam Jarvis, if she asks you a question, answer her politely. Remember, if she asks you a question, you MUST answer her. In front of the others, you must address Tophe as Second Master.” Christopher looks at Kaylee as he sighs. “Don’t scare her, Liam. My Mom is not as scary as it seems. You don’t need to worry about her.”

Suddenly a door open. Christopher, Liam, and Kaylee stood up. A middle age woman enters the office. Liam and Kaylee bow their head. “What’s brought you here?” A calm and deep voice rang in their ears. “Am I not allowed to visit my own son in my own company?”

“It’s not like that.” The middle age woman looks at the two people in front of her. “Liam, Kaylee clean the table now and back to your table for now.”

“Yes, Second Master.”

“No, no! It’s fine! I won’t stay long.” The middle age woman looks at Kaylee and then to Christopher. “Is she the one Sofia’s talking about?” Kaylee gulps when she hears what Christopher’s Mom said. “Yes.”

The Madam nodded while touching her chin with her index finger. “Is she your girlfriend?” Kaylee’s jaw dropped, but she manages to compose herself before the Madam notice her expression. ‘What?’

“As you can see, she is my assistant.” The Madam looked at her son. “Then why did you turn down Sofia’s request yesterday?”

“I’m busy!”

“It is now the boss’ job to buy her assistant clothes and shoes?” Kaylee and Liam’s expression was helpless. Christopher’s expression darkened. “Mom!” His mother sighed. “I just wanted to remind you that Sofia wants to marry you. Her parents have been asking me and your father to arrange a marriage for both of you. You knew very well that I am not going to oppose whoever you want to marry. But you must remember when the date is set, and have no one you want to marry. You have to marry Sofia.” Christopher runs his fingers to his hair. “Why it has to be me? There is Ethan, okay?”

“He’s not my son!”

“He is Dad’s son too, okay?”

“I don’t care. I am very sure that this not your father’s idea. I want a daughter-in-law.”
