The elevator directly went to the 37th floor. When they arrived, Mr. Dwight knocked on the door.
Then Shawn shivered when he heard the majestic voice that answered. "Come in."
Just listening to the voice anyone could tell, that the man behind the door was someone who won't be easy to get close to.
And Shawn followed blindly, when Julian nervously opened the door.
"Chairman, Mr. Shawn Thompson has arrived."
After Julain said those words he slowly turn and left the room, leaving Shawn with the mysterious Chairman Leander Martinez.
Looking around, Shawn can see how masculine was the whole office looked. It was furnished using black, grey and a little bit of white colors. The effect was elegant, and aloof, but with the few potted plants it helps to alleviate the mood, somewhat.
Turning to look at the man sitting behind the massive black desk, Shawn could feel that he's not just an ordinary man.
He was in good shape, and he's wearing a black shirt. And because he had his head lowered, Shawn couldn't see his face but with the outline of his nose and jaw he can conclude that he was a handsome man.
As he watched him, the man surprised him when he suddenly lift his head and look directly at him.
Shawn gasp when his eyes met the most coldest pair of his eyes he had ever seen in his life. And he was shocked when he finally see his whole face.
The man was the most beautiful man he had ever seen. He has the height and the muscle, and look more masculine than him, but still his beauty is another thing. He's look like a God, who descended from heaven, and Shawn was just a mere mortal compare to him.
And he's looking at him, with a blank and cold look. And even at a distance, Shawn could feel the cold air sorrounding him.
When those cold eyes, look at him directly in the eyes, he stop breathing for several seconds.
He stared at him, his mind blank.
Until a cold magnetic voice resounded in his ear, "Mr. Thompson," and that brought Shawn back to his senses.
Thinking of how he just look at him, like a lovestruck teenage boy, Shawn flushed embarrassed. Biting his cherry pink lips, he embarrassingly said. "Hi. Hello. Mr. Martinez."
"I wonder what's the matter, Mr. Thompson."
After hearing his question, Shawn suddenly remembered the reason why he's here. And that makes him more ashame of himself.
Breathing hard, Shawn suppressed the strange emotion in his heart, sorted out his thoughts and said. "Mr. Martinez, I would like to ask you to do me a favor."
Leander raised an eyebrow.
Shawn also knew how wrong it is for her to ask a complete stranger a favor, but for his brother Shane, he couldn't care less.
After a few seconds of silence, he said. "My brother has a heart disease and needs to be operated as soon as possible. I heard that Mr. Martinez was a an experience surgeon himself, and I hope.. I hope that..."
"I can help your brother with his operation?"
Looking at his swollen flushed face, Leander said the next difficult words for him.
"Yes." Shawn exhaled and look at Leander with pleading eyes. "Mr. Martinez, please help my brother. He's only 16—"
Leander raised his hand and interrupted him. "Since Mr. Thompson has come to me, you should know that I haven't done an operation for a few years."
"I know." Shawn nodded. "But I know Mr. Martinez is a good guy and he will not let someone so young die."
"A good guy? Who me?" Leander laugh. That sounds so hilarious, he couldn't help himself.
Who the hell does he think I am?
He put down the document he's reading, stand up and walk towards him. And then he stop in front of Shawn.
Shawn noticed that he's tall before, but he never thought that he was this tall. He himself as an actor and a model, he's already tall enough but this man he's much taller than him that he has to looked up to stare at his face.
Probably around 2 meters at most.
They were standing too close. The clear and masculine scent of the man's body wafted to him, and he can't help but flushed from sudden heat.
He stared at him with blushing face, his heart beating fast.
He couldn't help taking a step back.
Blushing and biting his lip, he said, "Mr. Martinez..."
"Mr. Thompson, I'm a businessman." Leander stared at him with his lips pressed tightly. "Let's talked business. Since Mr. Thompson wanted my help, what benefit you cou give me?"
Shawn hesitated.
Benefit?
Mr. Martinez looks like a person who already have everything. What could he possibly give him that will benefit him?
"Mr. Martinez, I don't know what you want..."
Leander look at his tender and lovely face, and said his next words with certainty. "What if I want you to marry me? Are you willing?"
"What??!" Shawn looked up in shock.
Mr. Martinez looked calm and said lightly. "Mr. Thompson, there's no free lunch in this world. You wanted something from so I'm just asking you to compensate me through the method I wanted. I will agree to your plea and help with the operation of your brother, but you must marry me."
This time, Shawn was sure he didn't heard him wrong.
He was too shocked to react.
In any case, he never expected that his request would be to marry him.
That sounds...so ridiculous..he couldn't believe he just said that.
"Mr. Martinez, are you serious?"
Leander raised an eyebrow and asked. "Do you think I'm joking?"
"Why?"
The man has it all, it's impossible that there's no woman who would want him.
He actually wanted to marry a man, who he just met. That was so unexpected.. And a little unnerving.
Or there were something inexplicable about him.
He looked at him, strangely, determining what was his real problem were.
Leander noticed how he looked at him, and after guessing what he was thinking, frowned, his expression turning dark for a moment.
Then he was amused again, and suddenly pulled the man in his embrace.
"Ah.." Shawn bump into his arms, his face hitting his solid chest, and even his nose turned red.
Before he could respond, his arms was suddenly pulled downwards. And then a sexy voice, chuckled above him. "Shawn, you don't have to worry about being discarded after we get married. You can even check now if I could get it hard for you.."
He didn't expect that this cold and upright man to talk dirty with him. It just fit his image!
Meanwhile, Leander was having fun holding the young man in his arms. He looked at his flushed face and his smile deepen.
He seems to loved blushing, like that night...
He couldn't forget his fair skin flushed pink, while he writhe under him....
