My Billionaire Boss Is Jealous Of My Boyfriend - Chapter 39

The looks of his facade changed from normal to amusing ones when he recognized who it was, Kelly Ho. He maintained a soft smile watching her approach his desk, “Good afternoon, Sir.” He lightly bobbed his skull pointing her to take a seat.

She firmly obliged, settling in the chair beyond his desk and putting her file on it. He can see she looked a tad confident unlike the last time she had entered his cabin. Why won’t she be? She was finally given the job she yearned for. Emmett raised his eyebrows smiling to himself as he can’t wait to execute his plan!

It was hard to take his eyes off of her face, she was as usual looking beautiful with her pink supple lips twisting and biting them. He held his urge of doing the needful for her. His mind pathetically imagined her being under him, in his bed, while he devoured those freaking lips of her that ignited a fire of passion inside his stomach.

He could stare her mouth all day long but he cannot risk to act stupid before her. Emmett Li had to take it slow if he really wished to enjoy this phase of his life with Kelly Ho, who was officially somebody else’s girlfriend!

“So you are Kelly Ho, my new accountant!” he remarked stretching out his hand above the desk.

He was like any other time, looking breathtaking. Kelly Ho cannot decipher why her stupid heart thumped inside her rib like that!

‘Come on, don’t beat so vigorously. Please, I don’t want to look like a fool again!’ She wondered looking down at his open palm facing the ceiling.

She was already feeling nervous under his gaze that when he took her name and stretched his hand out, Kelly Ho confusingly pressed her lips together. What did he want? May be, he wished to shake hands with her!

Nervously with a throbbing heart, she gave her palm in his rough one only to see him eyeing her with a narrowed gaze like she committed a mistake.

“What? The file, I want your file, not your hand.” She raised her eyebrows feeling dumb and pulled her hand out.

“Sorry… I thought…” Her mouth failed to speak properly.

Fuck, this is not how she wanted things to happen between them on their second yet the same kind of meeting where he made her feel nervous and awkward again and again!

‘Don’t you worry babe, I’ll have you hand in my grip often, just join my company first!’

Emmett Li thought of it himself when Kelly Ho apologized and withdrew her hand. For her, it looked like a blunder but for him this was getting hilariously interesting. She was indeed the way he had ȧssumed her— innocently naive!

“No issues, Miss. Ho, girls do act like that when they see me! Nervousness, I understand.” He ċȯċked his brow giving her smile, Emmett Li lowered his head and chuckled as he realized she did not understand what he meant!

He lifted her face back and adjusted his coat asking for her file again. This time, without creating any blunder Kelly Ho handed him the needed stuff however, she clenched her jaw when he placed his palm right above hers under her file for a while until she pulled her hand back.

“Uh, sorry!” She apologized again while Emmett Li pretended to have entered the zone of professionalism as he opened her file.

‘She is more interesting than what I have thought of her! Nice… It is going to be fun.’

Emmett Li rechecked her original documents that she was asked to bring herself with along with the copies enthusiastically.

‘Gosh, I don’t know why he is Looking at my degrees again? I sure hope that would not raise new queries in his head this time! Please.. Please…’

Kelly Ho crossed her fingers as she keenly saw him reading her certificates and degrees with focus. She can’t help but ċȧrėss the back of her palm where he touched. It was strange but the area burned with an unknown sensation.

She can’t comprehend it was a bad touch. Like as it is said that a woman can sense if a man is nice or not just after he touched her, Kelly Ho cannot find out if it was bad or nice for she could not actually feel any such kind of feeling. Her heart fluttered as the air turned heavy and thick. And to be honest, she never felt this way even when Eric Mo touched her.

In fact, sometimes when Eric Mo’s skin came in contact with hers, she felt uncomfortable at times but right now, after the CEO absent mindedly brushed his fingers and the pit of his palm with the back of her hand, she felt nothing closer to uneasiness!

She hated it but it was strange that she felt nicer whilst staying in the same environment as that of his!

What was this feeling?

Tbc…
