Liar, Liar Billionaires

Five- Rejected

"Boy do I hate working from home." Amir stretched as he decided to take a break from the system in front of him. His eyes darting to the busy duo in front of him who had decided to ignore his declaration, he decided it was time to get something else done.

He could maybe have some fun.

Leaning back in his chair, his nose picked up the vanilla-ish scent of the new help, Chloe, which signed how close she was to the room. Getting up, he decided she would be his fun for the day. Or perhaps for a long time. There was just something about her that interested him.

He was right. Chloe was standing in front of the small living room, her eyes trained on something ahead, a broom staying still in her hand. Scoping her, Amir could not help but appreciate how amazing she looked in the uniform. Not being too loose nor too tight, the black and white material sculptured her in the right places.

“Eh- hem. Chloe?” It was evident she had been deep in thought as she appeared a bit startled as she turned to face him.

“Amir. How can I help?”

“Please, help me clean my room. Lucille forgot to do so this morning.”

“But...”

He didn't want her hesitating so he quickly said, “I would have asked her to do it herself, but she is out on an errand."

"Oh. Okay then, I'll go do it right now." A small smirk on his face, Amir could see his plan coming together, he just had to find a way to further engross his brothers in their work. He needed no distractions.

“Hey, guys.” They gave him a gruff reply. “Remember our once forgotten competitor, Anderson?” He had their attention in no time. “He is back. Last night at the club, I heard that he is working on some new ideas to outrun us.”

“And you are saying that just now?” Nathaniel queried.

Grinning, his hand rubbing the back of his head, Amir replied, “I forgot, sorry.”

“Why won't you forget , when you spend most of your time drilling women and sniffing stuff?” Gabriel asked with a side voice.

“You seriously aren't talking to me, right?”

His eyes darting comically, Gabriel asked, “Is there anyone else here who does those things?”

“I don't have your time. Are you guys going to look into Anderson?”

“I am doing that right now.” Amir smiled , he had successfully found something to distract them.

“I will be right back guys, I need to get something in my room.” The excitement within him, he could not contain. He was going to have Chloe all to himself and no one will be around to stop him.

On getting to his room, the door was ajar, giving him a glimpse of the lady sweeping the mess he had made the previous night when he had gone on an eating spree. Carefully, he entered, Chloe unaware of his presence. Slowly Amir approached her, his hands quietly pulling his shirt off.

They never said no after seeing the built chest.

“Chloe,” he drew her name, surprising the dark-haired beauty.

“Uh... what are you doing?”

“You are asking me what I am doing in my room? " He moved a step closer.

"No. I am asking you why you have your shirt off."

Smirking, he asked, "You like what you see, don't you?"

To his delight, her eyes raked his ripped chest . Amir was becoming more and more tempted to hold her close, but slow and steady was good most times. “Hm... I have seen better actually.” His brow quirked, and she faced him squarely.

“I am being honest, I have seen better. Please just put your shirt back on.”

Amir quickly closed his mouth to hide his shock, he was not giving up so easily. "Chloe, I need to talk to you about something."

She stopped sweeping. "What?"

"It's just that... I... "

"I am sorry sir, you are not being clear." She was obviously pushing his button by referring to him as sir. He was not going to allow her to succeed.

Reaching out for her hand, he pressed further, "I am just trying to say that, I have been watching you, Chloe."

Looking horrified, she snatched her hand from his grasp. "You have been watching me? So, you have been stalking me ?"

What? What the hell? Why was she twisting his words?

"No, no. I mean I have been admiring you."

"You have been ogling at me. But you are my boss! Don't you think that is a bit weird?"

Damn this girl! Why was she acting difficult? Making up his mind to make her give in no matter what, he re-captured her hand and held it a bit firmly.

“Listen to me Chloe and stop twisting my words. What I am trying to say is that I like you, and I want the both of us to be together. What do you say to that Chloe? It is not a bad idea right?”

Chloe did not reply to him instantly, instead, her eyes studied him, she appeared to be reading him.

“Well?”

“I am sorry, but I cannot be with someone like you."

"Someone like me?"

"Yeah. I can't be with someone who just wants me for pleasure's sake."

"That's a lie..."

"I certainly don't miss the eyes you give me whenever I pass. I am no i***t, I could tell you want me in your bed. Amir," she forced her hand from his hold. ", you certainly don't expect me to be with a man who has slept with more than half of the country, do you?"

"I... I don't sleep around like that. I am particular about the women I have fun with."

"You can 't have me in your bed ever Amir, please get that in your head." Chloe picked up her broom which had fallen during their exchange. "And, please do yourself a favour and go check yourself for STDs."

Unbelievable! It was unbelievable that she could compare him to those men outside who slept with just anyone. And STDs? The heck he would ever have it!

Immensely annoyed at that moment by her words than her rejection, Amir charged at the lamp on his bedside drawer, and with rage, he smashed it against the wall. Who the hell did she think she was anyway? She's nothing but a maid. She should be grateful that someone like him noticed her.

“What is causing the smashing in here? Why on earth are you shirtless?”

Not bothering to look behind, Amir started blabbering, “Can you imagine her guts? That Chloe girl dared to refuse me. Does she have any idea? ..”

A hand nabbed him angrily from the back and pushed him violently against the wall. “You bastard! What did you do?”

Frightened slightly, Amir cried, “Hey, hey, Nathaniel, calm down.”

"Tell me. .." The fierce hands pushed Amir further into the wall his head hitting it a bit causing him to hurt a bit. "... what you did to her."

"I just told her liked her, okay? But don't worry, she refused me. So you can have her."

"Chloe is not a freaking ball that you can toss around, you d**k!" Nathaniel violently turned Amir to face him, his arm tucked beneath his chin. " Why did you come onto her after I had clearly showed interest in her?"

" Look, I am sorry man. I thought you backed out. Besides you snooze, you lose."

"Just get the f**k out of my sight!"

" This is my room.” The tall man glared right through his skull, his hold tightening. “Okay, okay.”

“What is going on here?” Gabriel who had just come around asked, confusion on his face as his eyes scoped through the broken lamp and the heavy tension between the men.

“Nothing man, mind your own business.” Amir brushing his shoulder against Gabriel angered him

“Don't tell me to...”

“Gabriel.” Nathaniel sent him a short message with his voice and nodding slowly, his eyes not leaving Amir as he walked out. They didn't stop giving him dagger looks either.

And the other eyes in the room didn't notice the extra presence they had.
