Chapter 8 - Letter

Name:Diana Author:may1st
"I can't accept this" Diana said as she stared at the expensive wooly neck scarves being  presented to her, they came in different colours and designs. She doesn't need anyone to tell her how expensive they are as she has seen something similar at some malls and ran away after she heard the prices.

"Diana, please take this and stop being stubborn, are you rejecting my kindness?" Mel asked.

'How did you know I needed those scarves in the first place' Diana thought in her head, she's finding it hard to believe that this is pure kindness to someone they are meeting for the first time.

She took the bag from her, "thank you so much you're so kind," she said.

"Hop in" Diana heard a voice from behind and turned to see Ethan inside a white Mercedes Maybach, looking breathtaking with his killer smile.

"Why are you the driver?" Diana asked as she got inside the car.

"I feel like driving my wife to be" Ethan said and started the car.

"Nice joke " Diana replied rolling her eyes.

There was an awkward silence in the car before Ethan spoke, "How do you feel?" He asked.

Diana raised her brow at him, "I mean about your break up yesterday and you also seem pissed when I said your look isn't pleasing to the eyes" Ethan said with his eyes glued on the road as he drives.

"Nah it's fine, you're right anyway and you're the only guy I've been this close with, without seeing a disgusted expression on his face.

Also it's not like you lied about my look, and about the breakup, I'm back to myself after a night's rest since I'm not in love with him anyway, atleast I get to meet your family and felt the kindness of human" Diana said smiling.

"I'm not interested in a woman, but I wouldn't stop you from whatever you wish to do if it will make you happy" Ethan said.

'Trying to trick me to forgive? Humph! Don't worry about liking a woman course I don't like men as well, I just need to get rid of this cold and be free' Diana said in her mind.

From their conversation, Ethan believes Diana has changed her mind, unknown to him, Diana has made some plans with grandpa before she left the mansion.

"One thing is sure Ethan, you're nice" Diana said and Ethan scoffed "because you slept next to my room and I didn't came knocking?" He teased.

"Shut up!" Diana said and stare out the window and stopped paying him any attention.

Despite Ethan's godlike look and wealth, he seemed like a kind man just as his grandpa stated the previous night, based on the dramas she watched most of the time she's free, those male lead are usually arrogant when they got introduced to some random girls, not to talk of someone with her look, yet Ethan remain natural and made her feel free just like she is with his family.

Getting to her work place, she placed a quick peck on Ethan's cheek and went out, "thanks for the ride," she said and walked toward the company entrance.

Ethan broke out of his stupor and scoffed "Diana!" He called but she pretends not to hear him and increased her pace, she believes he's calling her because of the pecking not realising that she didn't take her cellphone and the bag which contains the scarves she was gifted.

Ethan smiled and came down from his car, if this is her way of taking revenge on him then he kinda find her cute,  he took the bag and her phone and followed after her.

Getting inside the company, Diana as per usual, walked toward her desk gently, most of the workers don't really like her and she didn't care, if she has been caring about stuff like that, she might have died from depression.

She saw a small bag placed on top of her desk, she opened it and saw the sweater she was putting on at the club the previous day inside it.

She rolled her eyes, 'You jerk! Why don't you just burn it, what's the use of cleaning and pressing it this neatly' she thought.

She wanted to toss it aside and noticed something else inside the bag, she brought it out and opened the folded paper, ' Diana I'm sorry about last night, I fucked up and I want you to give me another chance to make it up to you course I realise I really am in love with you and want to spend the rest of my life with you, I will make up for yesterday humiliation, I don't care what others think about you cause I couldn't have a wink of sleep after getting home yesterday, I want us to have our date again and this time alone without anyone to disrupt us, I love you Diana'

From Jeffery ♡

While Diana is reading the letter, there is a commotion among the female workers, they had no idea where this heavenly beauty descended from, Ethan walked toward Diana who is fuming with rage while staring at the letter, "You got some guts hun?" Diana muttered, slamming her hand that was holding the letter on her desk and squeeze it.

"I should ask you," Ethan said smiling.

"Fuck!" Diana cursed, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean that" she apologised after realising what she just said after looking up to meet his blue mesmerizing eyes.

"What are you doing here?" She asked, 'Why did he look more handsome than before, is the light in this office adding to one's beauty?' Diana asked in her head.

"Are you sure you do not know why?" Ethan asked raising his brow at her.

Diana face began to burn after his question, "well you could con…."

"You forgot this" Ethan cuts in handed her the phone then placed the bag on her desk and secretly took the squeezed letter on her desk, "bye!" He said and left.

"Gosh! So embarrassing" Diana cried nearly pulling her hair that was beautifully styled by Maris, she was treated like a princess when she woke up.

"Hum Diana, who is that hottie?" One of her fellow secretary asked.

She looked up at her and saw the glow in her eyes, she noticed more stare and look around to see all the females present in the office staring at her with an anticipation look, it's clear they also wanna know who Ethan is.

These people always ignored her and avoided her all the time, and now because of Ethan they finally sees her as a human being and not some passing air.

Jeffery look enraged at his seat, he has been secretly studying Diana since she started reading the letter, she didn't even look toward his seat after reading it, and then Ethan came in and he saw her blushed.

"Are we close that I have to tell you about who my visitor is?" Diana asked, there is no way she will flow with their gossip, no need trying to be friends with them.

Immediately Diana asked the question, the other staff who are trying to find out who Ethan is as well quickly turned toward their desk and started typing on their keyboard.

"I'm sorry Diana I was just curious" the lady apologised and walked away feeling embarrassed, 'You will pay for this humiliation bitch!' She cursed inside.

Diana took out a matching scarf and wrapped it around her neck, with a smile on her face, she felt jealous about Ethan, his family is her lifetime wish, they are so nice.

Her cell vibrated and she picked it, her whatsapp just received a new message, 'who is that guy? What's between you two? {°~° }'

Reading Jeffery message, Diana frown and began pressing her phone with a pissed expression, before dropping it and relax on her chair.

Jeffery was waiting for message notification after Diana dropped her phone but didn't get any, 'Diana please reply my message'

'You cannot send a message to this subscriber' was all Jeff got in return after sending another text, "You blocked me" he muttered, looking toward Diana's direction.

Ethan scoffed after reading the letter, "funny guy" he said and drove away.
