Chapter 26
"Boss, don't tell me you want to comply?" Derek asked, and he got his response when Alex turned around and scanned around the shop.
When the ladies in the shop heard Cara's words, most of them were excited and hoped that Alex would help them. Who cares if they get to be his girlfriend for just five minutes? That is a title that would forever be stuck to their name.
Alex frowned and deepened as none of the women in the shop caught his interest. How hard is it to find a girlfriend? However, his eyes suddenly landed in the direction of where a few women were standing, not far from them his eyes fell at Sophia and Roseline. The first thing that caught his attention was a pair of lifeless gray eyes.
Sophia felt her heart was racing. 'Oh my gosh! He's looking at me!'
Naturally, she perked up her breasts, ran her hand down her hair, and put on a flirtatious smile.
Rose secretly rolled her eyes when she noticed Sophia's action. Not finding the rest of the show interesting to watch anymore, Rose unlocked her cellphone and focused her attention on finishing the level of the game she wasn't able to complete since yesterday. This was the only way she could kill time until Sophia was done.
Everyone noticed that Alex had his gaze glued to a certain direction so they all followed his gaze, curious to know who and what he was staring at.
He waved his forefinger slightly and beckoned Roseline to come over. However, Sophia thought she was the one Alex was talking to, she blushed slightly and took a few steps forward.
"I wasn't talking to you. I'm talking to the person beside you." Alex coldly remarked pointing towards Rose again. Sophia stopped in her tracks and the smile on her face froze as she turned to look at the person he was pointing to and it turned out to be Roselinez who was still occupied with her cellphone.
"Roseline, come over here." Alex called when she saw that Rose wasn't paying attention to what was going on.
Now, everyone was again shocked.
Sophia grit her teeth and stared at Roseline with immense jealousy.
Beatrice also frowned as well. It sounds like they not only know each other but know each other well.
'Roseline? Did someone just call me Roseline?' Roseline raised her head from her phone screen and looked up. To her surprise she saw Alex staring directly at her this time. Astounded and puzzled, she pointed at herself and questioned, "Me?"
The fact was that they didn't even know each other.
"Yes, you." Alex confirmed, but it only made Rose frown.
'What is the meaning of this? Wasn't he gesturing to Sophia to come over?' Rose thought as she glanced at Sophia and saw her glaring at her. 'Oh, don't tell me that he was actually pointing to me in the first place?' Finally connecting the dots, Rose nearly laughed at the sour expression on Sophia's face.
Seeing that Roseline wasn't even making a move, Alex walked towards her casually and quickly covered the distance between them in a few large strides. Before Rose could react when she saw him standing in front of her, he wrapped one arm around her waist, took her close to him.
"This is my new girlfriend, Miss Roseline Gray." He announced.
The fresh fragrance of cologne greeted Roseline's nose as the whole incident bewildered her completely.
Both Beatrice and Sophia looked like they had been turned to stone. All the ladies around were looking at each other, hoping to find confirmation of what they saw was real.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
What's going on here?
Derek was also surprised at his Boss' action. His Boss who had never been close to a woman all his life was actually hugging a woman and declaring her as his girlfriend. However, when he looked at the woman's face, he quickly
rémembered Rose's beautiful face.
'Isn't the young miss we had met at the airport a week ago? She is the one who had dropped her wallet.' Derek thought. The first and second woman his Boss would ever touch turned out to be the same woman. Is this what we call fate or destiny?
Cara, who was equally taken aback
by Alex's announcement, glared at Roseline for a couple of minutes before she roared "What?! Are you serious? What's about her that's better than me? Look at her. She's all flat naive and young. What's wrong with you?" Cara yelled pointing her long fingers at Rose. Just what sort of situation is this? If it was someone who was fitter or better looking, she would be able to understand. She felt humiliated.
Just as much as she hated the thought, she had to admit that Rose was extremely beautiful. And it felt like a huge slap to her face, seeing how a young girl was able to easily defeat her in terms of beauty.
Compared to her who neeel
make-up to seduce men, Rose had a natural beauty that could easily have lines of men following her around without any effort.
Cara instantly felt extreme jealousy towards Rose.
Besides, Rose was a girl. She wasn't a woman yet. Surely, she wasn't supposed to be Alex's choice at all.
"Wow, that young girl is so beautiful."
"I think she is a goddess, because her beauty is out of this world, just take a look at her pale skin."
"She isn't even wearing any makeup and she is already this attractive."
"How I wish I had a daughter like her, I would idolize her and brag around with her beauty."
"Wait, did I hear her name correctly? Gray? Is she from the famous Gray family?"
"You can see Mrs. Gray over there along with her daughter Sophia Gray. I think that young girl is the eldest daughter of the Gray family who is rumored to be studying overseas."
"I never knew she was back. Wow!"
The onlookers began to comment their opinions on Rose's gorgeousness.
'Just where did this brat crawl out from?' Cara thought. She didn't expect Alex to actually announce his girlfriend. He was a man known to not care about anything, she didn't know he would take her seriously.
