Chapter 207 - Sure... sure count us in
Scott’s POV
After driving Jean to her office, Scott went to his own company. The project with Grey’s is still in progress, after Jean and Ethan left, Mr. Kim took it’s responsibility into his own hands. Everything is going smoothly except that everyone missed their favorite leader, Jean.
Whenever they remember how Nathan use to irritate her with his authority, they couldn’t help but think it as hilarious. The only thing they wondered most is whether their boss is close to Jean or not.
They didn’t understand why Ethan disappeared like thin air. No one dared to speak out their concern for him after looking at dark and ashen face of Scott when the topic about him arose in one of the meeting.
Scott didn’t go to his own office, but directly headed to sales and marketing department for the emergency meeting. He first decided to do it through video conference from his home, but after Jean insisted on going to Grey’s Corporation, he decided to attend the meeting personally.
As soon as he entered the department, one of the employee sprinted towards him. She is indeed only one who has audacity to talk to him, without flinching at his dark and usually stoic face.
"Scott, I thought you will not come today for meeting," she smiled sweetly at him.
"Ms. Sheldon, I am your boss not your friend. Better watch your mouth and manners," Scott said indifferently as he gritted his teeth out of frustration. He didn’t like how his name was being pronounced by her, Jean must be the only one to call him like that.
"But I am your childhood friend. How come you ask me to change suddenly," she said in her sweet but sorrowful voice.
"Ms. Sianna Sheldon, I am warning you again. I just agreed to recruit you into company because my grandfather asked it personally. I don’t even remember that we are this close and you didn’t chase after me till I started my own company. I hope you don’t have any other thoughts, otherwise you are free to resign." Scott dangerously glared at her for few seconds and walked away from her not even bothered by her teared up face.
She is very stubborn to let go of him. Once her father had set a blind date with Scott, but he somehow managed to prevent his family from making alliance. She was told that he don’t appreciate girls, but after knowing that he has a fiancée how can she let other gold digger snatch him.
"But Mr. Summers, I am here to learn how to manage the company. Didn’t my parents and grandparents asked you to help me in it." She used her trump card. Elder Summers likes her as his own granddaughter, but it is his parents who are always indifferent with her.
"That is the reason I made you to work under one of the best director, you can learn from him or just leave this place and work for your own brother." Scott furrowed his eyebrows, if it isn’t for his grandfather, he would have already scared her to death and chased her away from his company.
"But, I want to work directly under your supervision. I am daughter of one of your fathers best ally and friend," she said shamelessly.
Scott halted a little and looked at her with piercing and hatred eyes, instantly making her shudder. "Then work under my father, I have nothing to do with your partnership with my father’s company. You can resign today and I will talk to my father to arrange a job for you there," Scott said.
"I want to work on project you have with Grey’s," Sianna said shamelessly, making him hate her even more.
Before he could say anything his phone started to ring, Sianna furrowed her eyebrows. This isnt the tune of his mobile, until amd unless it is someone who is exceptionally special and important to him.
Scott’s facial expressions drastically changed into warmth and gentleness as he answered the call. Confirming her suspicions.
"Baby, you are missing me. Huh.. I hope you are not sore anymore after what we did recently," Scott teased someone in his phone and chuckled softly.
After listening to the person on other line his grin widened as his face darkened a little. By looking at his appealing features her heart skipped a beat, with whom is he talking....his fiancée. Isn’t she supposed to be attending classes in another country or is she with him now in his house.
"Hmm.. I see. But come fast okay. Don’t drink much and don’t overexert your body. It needs more energy from now on." Scott said as gently as he could be, at the same time he made it sound like a warning and also as a tease. How can he be this shameless even on the phone, she thought he didn’t like all this intimacy and dramas related to it.
"Send me the location. I will pick you up exactly at nine," Scott said while he looked into his schedule. He signaled his PA to cancel all the meeting after eight in the evening.
"No, nine it is. I don’t want you to stay till late night. If you want to spend sometime with them you can invite them and have a proper get together in house itself, not somewhere else, I will be worried." Scott coaxed her and it almost sounded like he is pleading her.
"Good. Don’t forget not to over work. Have your medicines and lunch." Scott smiled at something that his fiancée said and his eyes glittered with love and longing for her, it pained so much for Sianna to witness it.
"I love you, take care honey and thanks for forgiving me about yesterday night and today morning. You are always best." Scott beamed when Jean said that she will forgive him for letting her go out with her girls. He want this other woman to understand how much he loves his fiancée, how much they are involved into each other.
As soon as he ended the call, Scott’s mother called him. She looked excited that she directly came to the point.
"Wait, I will go into my room," Scott said indifferently while he went into his office in that department.
After he went in, he locked the door and kept the phone on speaker while he started reading some files. He knew that Sianna installed a bug in his room, but stayed quiet to see what she will try to do. Anyway she will only find dog food from his conversation.
"Scott, why there are no maids in your house," his mother worriedly asked him.
"Seline ordered them to take a day off." Scott started appreciating his twin sister for helping him in many ways.
"I called yesterday evening, you didn’t received my call not your wife," she said angrily but her concern is something no one can ignore.
Sianna clenched her fists after hearing Madam Summers. She is calling his fiancée his wife already, what if they are already married.
"We went to sleep early and we left our mobiles in living room itself," Scott said as he flipped some pages in file and signed the doc.u.ment.
"I also called landline connected to your room," she is not yet convinced by his excuses.
"Receiver is on hold so others will not disturb us," Scott didn’t have any intentions to hide his pervert nature. Moreover he want Sianna to witness this so she will stop bothering him. He can’t act rashly towards her because his grandfather never asked him a favor till now. He can’t disrespect his grandfather.
"What about morning, you also took day off," his mother teased him even more. She wants to listen from his mouth about what happened.
"We slept till late morning and she didn’t wake up till afternoon, now she insisted to go to work," Scott said as he chuckled.
While he is in his cloud nine, Sianna is having a heart break. Elder Summers promised her parents in marrying her to Scott, only if she succeed in winning his heart and his parents permission.
She tried so hard to curry some favors, but his mother always acted distant with her. His father is worse, he couldn’t even remember her name and pretended as if he don’t know her.
"Scott can I come tonight to your place, I miss my daughter-in-law," she pleaded with him. "It’s been while since I talked to her."
"Mom, you both have talked endlessly not too long back. For gods sake, it’s been only one week," Scott’s inner beast is not yet satisfied and still wanted more.
"Still.. Please....please," his mother whined. Sianna understood how much Madam Summers loves her daughter-in-law, she is not at all a match.
"Don’t you want grandchildren to play," Scott used his trump card, though he didn’t have intentions of sharing his wife with anyone yet.
"Forget what I asked. Do you know that your sister asked your wife for twins," she squealed excitedly and continued. "Then in turn, she asked Seline for triplets to play with her twins. I and Raymond teased them till now," his mother laughed heartily.
"I will surely give you twins then," Scott grinned together with his mother.
"Raymond also promised," she grinned even more while Scott laughed.
"Sure... sure, count us in," Scott said happily after seeing his mother acting too delighted. If giving babies will make her happy, he will try to give them soon.
Meanwhile Sianna is fuming with anger and jealously. She might look all innocent, but she is a sly fox in disguise of human. She won’t let some insignificant woman to become next mistress of Summers household.
Shore will always look clear and delightful before the storm.
