#Chapter3

He seemed reluctant but i really wasn't giving him a choice.

"Okay" he finally nodded.

" was really nice to meet you all by the way and thanks for letting us play with you Thomas" Justin said as he grabbed Jessie's hand. They gave Thomas a quick hug and then me.

I made sure Thomas got in a taxi home before I left to find this guy.

I pulled out my phone and searched him in google. It came with a lot of articles but I finally found what I was looking for. I clicked on his companies website and located his building. It made more sense when his building wasn't far from here.

Now as I see the name printed over the big building in the centre of London I realised that I recognise the business name more than the man himself. My dad worked here when he was younger, I knew that. I think my dad used to have meetings here all the time back when he was into architecture, I'm sure he did his apprenticeship here when he was younger too, but I can't be sure.

I walked inside quickly. I was surprised i was even allowed through the lobby doors but i still had to make it through reception which was going to be more difficult.

" Hello darling, how can i help you," a lovely older woman said walking up towards me. She scared the living daylights out of me.

" yes actually, is there any chance i could talk with Mr Tesoro," i asked her. There was no point in lying i was hoping she would appreciate my honesty.

" Sorry darling but he only speaks with people who have an appointment" she explained sadly. I sighed, i was expecting that response so i wasn't too surprised.

He must be quite busy and i doubt he wants to spend his time speaking to a girl like me.

Maybe i could just slide into his Dm's. i could even do it on the hotel account, not like my parents would know.

I really thought my luck was off but from the corner of my eye, I spotted him. He was running up the large staircase with a woman following him quickly. The woman in front of me eyed me suspiciously.

I ran over to the stairs " Mr Tesoro" i shouted, desperate to get his attention.

He paused at the top of the stairs. I breathed deeply relieved. He slowly turned around and i knew from the look he gave me he knew exactly who i was. Maybe not from the hotel but rather from 20 minutes ago.

" let her come up," he said loudly at the woman in front of me. She was sceptical but i guess whatever he says goes.

She allowed me to go up. Everyone around me stopped to stare. Probably wondering what business I have with their boss.

Nathaniel didn't stop to wait for me but instead headed straight to his office.

" Okay, you're very lucky to even get the time with Nate so make it quick he has a meeting in 10 minutes," the woman said walking up to me, she handed me a visitor lanyard. I guessed this was his assistant.

I guess she was on a nickname basis with him. Makes me think shes showing off to me that maybe they are closer than just colleagues. Not like i cared that much anyway.

She left me alone quickly when her mobile started to ring.

The door leading to his office was open slightly. I slowly stepped inside.

As I walk into the office, I'm surprised at how messy it is, papers are scattered everywhere on his desk and floor. Seems like he has had a rough morning.

When I scan the room there are no decorations, no picture frames on his walls or his desk and not a comfy chair in sight. I'm guessing that he doesn't spend much time looking for comfort in his office but Isn't this supposed to be an architectural company.

"Take a seat " he says bluntly.

"Thank you" I say quietly almost like a whisper. I always seem to be more confident with eyes on me or with a group of people but being alone with Nathanial Testoro is proving to be very difficult. He is extremely intimidating.

Taking a deep breath I slide my tongue along my lips to try and wet my lips from their dryness caused by being nervous.

"I just wanted to come here and ask you about what you did earlier you know down the street I know it was you who left the money" I asked him.

Finally, I look towards him, he has a thoughtful expression on his face. All of a sudden, his eyes widen and he becomes angry " " I really thought you'd be different. All you women are exactly the same" he says clearly annoyed.

I don't understand why he is so angry. " I don't think you understand" I said narrowing my eyes at him. If he's implying that I am just here for more money he is sadly mistaken.

" oh I do though. I suggest you leave here and refrain yourself from seriously embarassing yourself. Try to not use men for money, its an ugly quality" he snaps pointing over to his door. He pressed down on a button and spoke. " Come and escort her out and meet me in the conference room"

Was he seriously not going to let me speak. Just judge me like this.

I wasn't going to let him talk to me like that. I walked up to his desk and grabbed a pen and paper. I scribbled down the number for Thomas quickly. "I am not here to ask you for more money, I am here because that boy wanted me to find you. He wants to know if they money was all for him, since he wanted to share it all. I cant stand to hear another word coming from your mouth so when youre not sucking your own dick, give that boy a ring" I slammed the paper into his chest.

Men were infuriating sometimes.

I don't know if I was seeing things or was that guilt in his eyes. But he must be crazy if he thought I was going to ignore the fact that he accused me of being a gold digger.

The moment the door opened revealing his assistant I stormed out, not bothering to wait for her. I just wanted to get out of here.
