Tempted By My Boss - Chapter 31

Before he can respond the waiter turns back hastily, “Sorry, do you know what you want to eat?”

“Is it fine if I order for the both of us?”

“Yes, that’s fine.”

“We will get two steaks please.”

“How well-done Sir?”

“Medium-rare for me”

“And you mam?”

“Well done please.”

“Is that all?”

“Yes.” as Valerian dismisses the waiter and he leaves to go place our order.

Before he starts speaking the waiter arrives with our drinks and he places one glass in front of her and then in front of Valerian. “Would you like anything whilst you wait for your meal.”

Valerian looks at me, “no, I’m fine thank you.”

“Then nothing.” as he tells the waiter.

She sees Valerian taking a sip of his wine and he gestures for her to also. She takes a light sip, and puts the glass down.

“How have you really been Hailey?”

“I have been good and you Sir?”

“I’m fine.”

Hailey starts to fidget a bit as she is waiting for him to bring up the issue of what happened previously, but it doesn’t seem like he intends to do so any time soon.

Valerian keeps on asking questions, bit by bit and she answers them gradually. Then the waiter comes with their food.

“Enjoy.”

“Thank you.” she responds.

They dig into the meal, and it tastes heavenly, she never had such delicious food unless she was tasting in the kitchen in Je Taime.

This was divine. She scuffles down her food and Valerian looks at her curiously. “You sure do eat fast Hailey.” she just laughs a bit in response.

“Do you like it?”

“I love it.” as she forks another piece of steak into her mouth.

“I’m glad then I made the right choice for the both of us.”

She rolls her eyes at him.

“What Hailey?” as he looks bemused.

“Oh please you have been here before, so obviously you know what to get and even if that is not the case, you have fined dined a lot.”

“Fair point.” as he laughs lightly.

When they finish their food they order dessert, she just gets a cheesecake and so does Valerian. After dessert is done, the waiter clears our table.

The bill comes, “how much do I owe?”

“Nothing Hailey.”

“No, I want to pay for myself!”

“Stop being stubborn, I have already paid. I gave them my card when I walked in. Here it is just the tip for the waiter.”

“Fine let me at least tip him.”

“Okay.” as he surrenders to my request and he gives me.

After we are done Valerian takes us to his place, she walks in. When was the last time she was here?

“Sit.” as he motions her to the couch, then he sits down next to her. “Hailey, we need to talk about everything from the beginning and where it all went wrong, that’s why I bought us here.”

“I know Sir.”

“Tonight, there are no barriers in between us, it should be just me and you. Okay?”

“Okay.” as she nods in agreement.
