CHAPTER 50
Beatrice's brows kneaded at the information Wu Bai just passed to her nosy ears. "You said what?" She asked coming to stand in front of him.
"To deliver a restraining order," Wu Bai repeated.
"For what or from who?"
"You know, Andromeda." He lifted his hand to his head and gently massaged his temples. This whole matter was eating more of his mental state than he had ever thought it would.
However, he was soon pulled out of his thoughts by her hysterical laugh. "What?" He did not bother masking his frown as he stared at her in confusion.
"What do you mean by what? Can't you see that everything about her is just so…" She paused and stopped laughing to look at him. "No, do not tell me you are taking this seriously, are you?"
Wu Bai refused to answer her. Her brows creased some more as she tilted her head to the side before speaking. "No. I mean, Wu Bai you actually fell for this?"
A soft chuckle left her lips and she crossed her arms in front of her chest as she shook her head in disbelief. "I can't believe this. Anyways, I do not blame you."
She let her hands fall to her side before turning around. Her mind swept through several thoughts before turning halfway to look at him and bringing her hands to her hips.
"And that Andromeda. Gosh, the nerve she has. What does she think she is? Important or what? Since when did she become useful?"
The second the last word fell off her mouth, Wu Bai whipped his head in her direction and glared at her. "Do not tell me that you have forgotten the reason why the Wu fashion company shot high these last few years?"
Sensing the hostility and rage, she turned her head away to avoid his gaze. "So?"
"So," he began, taking a step in her direction. "Without her now, the company would fall. And trust me when I say that lawyer isn't bluffing and they are not fake"
His words had hurt her and made her feel even more incapable. Without a second thought, she snapped her head to face him and voiced out angrily.
"I refuse to agree with that, Wu Bai."
"Think what you may. I need Andromeda back in this company. In case you do not know, the time for our fashion show is around the corner. What am I to do?"
"You have me!"
"You?" He scoffed and shook his head. "You are a designer alright but your designs could not keep me in the top 5 best fashion lines. I need her top-notch talent."
"So, you are choosing her over me?" Beatrice asked, placing her left hand to her chest and feigning being hurt as her eyes widened.
"If you think I am, then why did I hide her talent and give you credit for her work?"
Understanding his point, she moved her head to the side again and crossed her arms on her chest. "Hmm, so, I should kneel and grovel on my feet?"
"No, darling." He took in a deep breath and released it sharply. Without being told he knew where this conversation was going and in the end, he was going to be the one at the losing end.
"You know I didn't mean that. All I am saying, you are taking the credit and if you do not want to look like a sham?"
"No." Beatrice Zhang responded and released her puffed cheek as she stared sadly at him. Seeing this as his chance, he placed both hands on her arms and turned her body to face him completely. "UI am not a sham."
"This is why we need to get her back."
She let out a soft sigh closing her eyes and when she pried them open once more, her anger had dissipated. "What plans do you have to make?"
"I would contact Andy Jingwen."
'Andy?"
"Yes. He is to ensure that no matter where she goes to find a job, they should reject her. This way, when her job hunt becomes futile, she has no other choice but to come back to me. Then I can have her sign a contract that binds her to us."
"Just that?" She blurted out raising her brows at him.
"What do you mean by that?"
"You are not looking to get between her legs and bang her right?" She searched his eyes sternly, looking for any trace of a lie in his eyes.
"What do you take me for? No, I need her for my company which you benefit from. Besides, what do I need her when I have your moist and sweet pussy all to myself?"Her cheeks puffed up so much he could not believe words could get her like that.
Rather than stopping he continued. "In fact, I just know what would quell my annoying mood now."
"Oh really? She dropped her hands to his chest and slid up to his buttons as her fingers worked fast on them. "Tell me more."
'I want to enter you from different angles and positions and make you squeal in the office that even my secretary would go wet just thinking about all the things we are doing."
"Oh my! I love the sound of that."
"Yeah, then I can watch as you pounce so much on my big dick while your pussy squeezes…." He did not get to finish his words when Beatrice slammed her lips on his in an ever-hungry fierce kiss.

The sound of his heavy footsteps echoed along the hallway as he made his way toward the elevator.
Not bothering about the noise he made, Xu Fang raised his head only to see Liu Xueyi leaving his office in a fast manner.
"Hey," he called out, hoping to get his attention.
"Xu Fang. Right on time."
"Where are you hurrying off to by this time?" Xu Fang asked as he came to a stop before Li Xueyi. Rather than stopping too, Liu Xueyi walked past him and unbuttoned the top three buttons of his suit.
"It is time. I have a final shoot."
"I thought you said that days ago," Xu Fang countered.
"I did. What I mean, is there was an error in the cover shoot for the movie. I think something happened to the files and stuff. I do not know all the details. So, we need a retake. I need to use the secret elevator and change on the way. There is no time."
"I see. Fine then. Let's go. I can fill you in on the way."
