Daddy’s Hot Sauce

CHAPTER 33- UNEASE



Emily was just staring at Anders and was thinking about the scene that happened earlier, she could not believe that this man in front of him was an independent on his own. For her he was cold as stone but when she saw how he treated his mother the off for her.

She grew up drawing respect to each and anyone and for her to see that kind of scenario was making her mad at him.

“Mr. Winston, can I ask a question?”

Anders did not say anything but still closed his eyes and massaged his temples.

Emily let out a heavy sigh and said, “Why did you do that to your mother? I mean yeah she did bad things to you, let’s consider that way but being disrespectful in front of other people was not a good thing.”

Emily was waiting for his answer but she did not get any from him so she spoke once again.

“Having respect to others won’t cause you a single penny,”

Then, Emily did not wait any longer and turned her back, but something made her stop as Anders finally let out the words about what she said.

“Sometimes respect comes from others. Not everyone deserved the word respect! If others did not know how to respect then they should not gain any respect.”

He said and stood up, crossed his arms and said once again, “Only few deserve respect, Miss Emily,”

Then he walked straight to her and grabbed her purse and her hands and went out of his office.

“Wait, what are you doing?” she was now panicking as she felt his tight grip on her hands.

“Go to the convenience store with you?” he said and both went inside the elevator.

Emily secretly smiled from behind and was staring at him. She could still smell the perfume on him, the scent that everyone loves, might be the woman he was with.

She has so many thoughts in her mind, especially felt insecure towards herself which was new to her. She was feeling low esteem whenever she was with him, especially if she saw many girls were trying to get his attention.

“You should not come, I can buy some drink on my own, I just want to breathe from what happened earlier,” she said in a low tone of her voice.

Anders looked at her and saw the innocence of her,

“Well, I did not go because of you, I am just and decided to get something at the convenience store,” he stated and waited for the elevator to reach the ground floor.

Emily smiled as she heard the lies from him, well on the other side she was not expecting to see his true personality up close. If it was not about the contract, she might not even get a chance to know him better.

When they reached the ground floor, they both walked in the hallways and as usual the employees were surprise to see Mr. Winston held hands with a woman and that was Emily.

They both heard whispers from their back and when Anders was about to turn, Emily quickly pulled him out of the building and walked fast toward the nearest convenient store. But, before they could reach the convenience store, Emily noticed a street food vendor.

“Come here, Mr. Winston.” she said while biting her lower lips.

“Have you tried these? They’re the most delicious,” she said and asked the vendor to give them one serving of the food.

The vendor handed to Emily the cup that was full of fried quail eggs, and so he put some sauce on it.

She pinched one egg and gave it to him. “Try this,” she said and put one of it inside his mouth.

“Quail eggs?” Anders curiously asked.

Emily nodded her head as she could not say any word as her mouth was full with the quail eggs.

“It’s good, I’ll get all of these,” Ander said to the vendor.

Emily widened her eyes and almost choked herself, she tapped her chest and swallowed the food from her mouth.

“What?! Are you serious? I mean if you get these it will surely affect your diet, ruin to be exact, Mr. Winston,” she said and smiled toward the vendor.

“Yeah, I will get it all, please cook it, now,” he asked the vendor.

The vendor smiled at Mr. Winston and did not say any words. Emily on the other hand was in disbelief that he wanted to eat both of the food.

“I’m telling you, this is enough for me,” she gave an assurance look at Mr.. Winston.

Then, after a while the quail eggs were cooked and the vendor put them on each cup with a special sauce in it.

Mr. Winston called George and commanded, “Come over here in from of the convenience store,”

George arrived in no time and said, “Wow, this is new, Mr. Winston. I mean-” but he was not able to continue his words as Anders threw a sharp look on him.

“Thank you Mr. Winston,” then, George quickly left the place.

When Emily was about to eat the last quail egg in his cup, Anders quickly grabbed her arm and let it inside his mouth.

“What! Why did you do that? You got yours and ugh!” then she left him and walked inside the convenience store.

Anders laughed and followed her inside. She saw Emily that was standing in front of the chiller of the convenience store and was looking at something. He walked beside her and asked,

“Are you looking for something?”

Emily nodded her head and said, “Choco milk. I wanted to have it but I think they don’t have it here.”

Anders quickly grabbed his phone and called George, “Buy me a full box of Choco milk, now!”

Then, he dropped the phone and saw Emily was staring at him.

“Wow! You really are that rich. I mean you can have everything in just a snap of your finger. What a privilege!” she mumbled and walked around the convenience store.

Anders shook his head but did not bother to utter words and tell his opinion about what she said, instead he followed her and was quietly observing the place.

Emily grabbed some things she needed like tissue, some snacks, drinks and things for women like her who could only understand.

“We should go to the bigger store than here,” Ander said.

She brought out her card and was about to hand it to the cashier when Anders put his card first.

“Use this one,” Emily said,

“No, use mine, if not. I will demolish this building the next day.”

He threatened the woman at the cashier, so the cashier grabbed his card instead of Emily’s card.All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

Emily crossed both of her arms and said. “Seriously?” then she shook her head and rolled her eyes.

After buying all the stuff that Emily needed for her stay in his apartment. Anders quickly grabbed the bags that were handled by Emily.

“Give it back to me, I can handle those things! Don’t act like you are my boyfriend.”

Emily was shocked about what she uttered so she bit her lips and did not say any other words.

Anders sighed and said, “Miss Emily, can you try to reread the contract so you can understand all the rules that was given there.”

He emphatically said and walked first and left her.

Emily let out a heavy sigh and whispered, “Good thing he did not say any words. Wait!”

She ran toward Mr. Winston across the road toward the building of his company.

Anders did not bother to get inside the building, instead he called George to bring down his things and Emilys’ as well and just in time the luggage and some stuff on Anders were now at the area where he wanted to get it.

George walked toward Anders and just talked for a minute, then George quickly put inside the luggage at the back of his car while Emily was at the passenger’s seat. She was checking her phone and saw the messages from her mom and dad.

Then, one message from Mike and that made her widen her eyes. He saw the photo that was full of bruises and bandages on his body. She quickly shut her phone when Anders went inside the car with a smile on his face.

“What’s wrong?” he curiously asked while putting on the seat belt and starting up the engine.

Emily shook her head but did not say any word. She let her face the window while thinking about her friend Mike. The worry was on her face and could not feel at ease with the the bruises that she saw on him.
