Chapter 60- The Black Van

HARDIN'S POV

Just as I opened my boss's door I saw her going down like she was in slow motion and without a second thought I threw the documents I was holding and quickly held her hand preventing her from hitting the ground as I drew her to myself.

Why the hell does this woman like to kiss the ground so much?

I carried her in my arms bridal style as I walked to the office couch and gently laid her on the couch.

“ It's okay," I said as she mumbled something.

She looked very weak like she couldn't lift a single muscle and I knew just why.

I touched her head and her temperature was normal which meant my assumption was right, she hadn't had anything to eat.

She rolled like she was about to fall from the couch but I quickly held her to stop the fall as her hair covered her face but I gently removed the hair from her face and without meaning to my eyes went to her lips and a stupid thought crossed my mind.

What is wrong with me? When did I start wanting to kiss a woman? I'm going nuts definitely, because I don't even kiss women for any reason but here I was looking at my boss's lips.

After making sure she wouldn't fall down I was about to stand up but she wouldn't leave me as she held me tightly like her life depended on it.

If she was awake and you tell her what she just did, she'd deny and argue until you start believing she's the right one.

I finally detached myself from her as I slowly got up.

I sigh as I brought out my phone to quickly order something for her to eat. After making the order I put my phone back in my pocket and I just watched her.

Whatever anyone is going through they need food to fight. Can you fight when you don't have the energy? No.

I walked to the door as I started picking up the documents I had thrown earlier in the process of playing flash. When I finished picking them up I walked to the table and dropped them neatly on her table.

A knock came on the door and I walked to the door and opened it then I stepped outside. I didn't want anyone to see her.

“ This was brought for the CEO,” the security guy said as he handed me the bag.

" Yeah, thank you,” I said as he nodded and walked away. I opened the door and walked back inside to see my boss sitting up with her head down as her hair fell down covering her face. She looked like something out of a horror movie.

“ I brought you something," I said and she quickly turned to me as I waved the bag in front of me.

“ What is that?" She asked and I couldn't help but roll my eyes. Did she suddenly have a nose deficiency?

“ A burger and orange juice," I said as I walked to her and dropped the bag on the mini table. I've noticed that she drinks orange juice a lot. Even that day that little accident of me walking in on her, that was what she was doing. Well, remember it wasn't my fault.

“ It's not good to starve yourself no matter what happens." I said.

“ I'm not starving myself," She said and I just raised a brow looking at her.

“ So you're not hungry?" I asked.

“ I'm not hungry," she replied.

" Okay then I might as well take the food away,” I said and was about to take the food but the look she passed me made me stop immediately.

I thought she said she wasn't hungry. Why then was she looking at me like a hungry lion about to devour its prey.

I watched as she took the bag and brought out the burger and without wasting time she started eating.

“ Are you going to stand there and watch me eat? Get something doing," she said.

I actually ordered two burgers, one for me and the other for her but with the way things were going I don't see myself eating the burger. She was protecting the bag quite well.

Dramatic much.

“ I'll be in my office," I said but she was too busy eating the burger to pay me any attention.

I quietly walked out of her office to my office as I sat down on my chair.

My phone vibrated with a message and I picked it to see it was a message from my best friend.

‘ Are you still at work? We're supposed to have dinner together,’ the message read.

‘ Yeah, I'll be done soon’ I quickly typed in my reply as I hit send and an ‘ Okay’ came back quickly.

My friend's were meeting at Ronny's for dinner, more like late dinner because it was way past dinner time.

I just wanted my boss to sign that document before I go home but she had to have a fainting episode.

Now I have to wait and make sure there are no surprises, it's my job to take care of her after all.

I heard her office door open and close and I knew that she was done so I quickly took my bag and walked out of my office.

“ You're done." I said.

She nodded as she turned to me like she was about to say something but stopped herself as she shook her head and started walking towards the elevator but she stopped again and turned to me.

“ Thank you for the food," she said in one breath before quickly walking to the elevator.

Was that it? Was that what was so hard for her to say?

She didn't have a problem saying thank you to other people except me.

“ Are you coming or should I close the door?" She asked and I quickly came out of my thoughts as I joined her in the elevator.

I pressed the button for the ground floor as we patiently waited to reach.

When we got out of the company, I walked my boss to her car and she was about to walk to the driver's side but I stopped her.

“ I don't think it's a good idea for you to drive let the driver take you home," I suggested and for the very first time my boss didn't argue with me she just opened the door and got into the backseat of the car.

“ Good night Miss Miller," I said as the driver got into the car and started the car as I watched them drive off.

I was about to walk to my car when I noticed that immediately their car drove off, a black van started following them.

No way, I'm not gonna let another kidnap happen on my watch.
