CHAPTER 8 - The Other CEO

968 Words
Katelyn POV After that incident, Mason has been keeping a distance from me. He only gave me a bunch of works to do and only talked to me via email. The situation is getting hard for me. How can I seduce him at this point? I was in the middle of replying to Mason's email when suddenly Someone startled me. “Hello there, gorgeous!” I looked at the six-foot-tall man. He has dark blonde hair swept to the back that perfectly showcases his perfect thick brows. He curved a smile that I believe can make every woman fallen head over heels for him. His gorgeous blue eyes were squinting at me, waiting for my response. “Hello… Are you there?” he said while waiving one of his hands in front of my face. “How can I help you, sir?” I said firmly. “Is Mason here?” he talks casually. “Yes, but let me ask him first,” I said while picking up the phone, but he holds it. “That wouldn’t be necessary…” He then strode away towards Mason’s room. I followed him and wanted to block his way, but he was quicker than me, pushing the door open. “Sir, you can’t just barge in….” I stated in fear. “Hello, Little brother!” he greeted cheerfully. Mason surely would scold me after this. “It’s okay, Kate…What are you doing here, Wilson?” Mason cuts me. He was diverting his attention from the laptop. “Come on, bro! Aren’t you excited to see me?” he walked towards Mason while spreading both of his arms. “You should be busy handling New York’s branch,” Mason said cynically. He chuckled, then sits at the corner of Mason’s table, arms folded in front of his chest. “I AM busy… But I came here for a reason, and I’ll stay for a month.” He stated calmly. So, he was Mason’s brother? Both of them looked at me. Mason got up from his chair and came towards me. “Kate…This is my older brother, Wilson. He is the CEO of New York’s branch.” He said, introducing me to Wilson. “I’m sorry for my behavior earlier, Mr.Wilson. I’m new here.” I said timidly while looking at the floor. Wilson came towards us then put his arms on my shoulder. I lift my head and looked at him, confused, “If you’re really sorry, then have lunch with me. Kate.” My heart beats uncontrollably inside my chest. Prince’s brother indeed had their own way to seduce women. “She has work to do, Wilson!” Mason said, annoyed by his request. “Oh, come on! Bro… I think you can survive for an hour without her… Let’s go! Kate.” His hands were pushing my back from behind. Since I worked here, this is the first time I saw Mason defeated. Let’s hope Mason wouldn’t torture me later when we got back. “Are there any specific food that you want to eat?” he said when we stepped on the elevator. “I don’t think this is a good idea…Mr.Prince. I should just go back.” I shot a glance at him. “On the contrary, Kate. I think this is an excellent idea… And please call me Wilson.” He shifted his body to me. He sure is mesmerizing. I found myself can’t reject his offer, or maybe I was just being polite because he was also CEO of Princeton. We finally reached the basement, he took me on his blue Aston martin. It reminds me that my father was also a fan of this car brand. He used to be wealthy, before he borrows money from Lucas and goes bankrupt because he was framed by his business partner. The ambiance inside the restaurant is very romantic. What a sneaky man! He knows how to make a woman fall for him. I scoffed. Crystal chandelier on top of our table in a high ceiling painted to resembles the sky, the sound of a violin playing softly in the background. We took a seat near the window, a waitress in a white-black uniform came to us and brought us the menu book. “I can see you like the food.” Wilson teased me while I was finishing the last chop of “ossobuco”, It was a veal shank simmered in white wine, meat broth, and vegetables. I took the napkin and wiped the corner of my mouth. “Can we go back now?” I said. Wilson put down his wine glass and looks at me fretfully. “Why so fast? Did you worry about Mason?” He sounds a little bit upset.  Other people start looking at us. “I feel bad for Mason... I always arrange everything for him.” I talked back. “Okay, you win! Let’s go back right now.” He got up from the chair. “Wait! I’ll order something for Mason. You can go out first.” He rolled back his eyes and left first to get the car. Inside the car, he turns the music on and sings along. He was completely different from the cold Mason. “Is there something in my face?” he asked all of a sudden. I chuckled at his reaction, “No, it’s just that I saw you both really different.” He smirked at me. “Is that so? Which one of us do you prefer?” I didn’t answer him since we already reach the office parking lot. We walked inside the office, and when I passed by, I saw Mason with Kimora talking together in the lounge. “See, I’ve told you he was going to be fine! They definitely still had a thing. Wow, it's been a while since I saw her. Kimora looks even more stunning now.” He said annoyingly. “Whatever!” I threw Mason’s food at the top of the trashcan. Maybe I should just go see Lucas tonight and end this stupid agreement right away. I’ll never win in this game. I groaned in frustration.
