6- Who is Art?

Ellery’s POV

“NO, GIRL!” Alexa glared at me. But her suggestions seem like that. “You will just show him and let him know how it feels when he sees you in the morning after he wakes up. You know, he might be able to think well and realize that he wants to see you every time he wakes up in the morning. And then, Lindsay's wedding preparation is over! Isn't it a bright idea?

I don't know if I will laugh or be annoyed with Alexa. She was giving advice that sounds easy. But that was not as easy as what she was trying to say. Also, Luke probably doesn't like waking up being with me. That would probably startle him. Who would want to be shocked as he wakes up?

"No, I can't do that, Alexa." I made a series of shakes of my head.

She stared at me. “What am I going to do with you? You are the one who is being helped. It’s up to you if you want your beauty to rot! You will never taste the ‘paradise of pleasure’!” She was as if trying to intimidate me.

I just laughed at her.

Alexa frown. “Come on. Our lunch break is over. Nah! I can't believe that I wasted my time advising you, and you will not even consider.” She teased me.

“Alexa, you know me.

“Yah! I know you too well. And I know you will grow an old maid when you let your loved one crashed landed to the gold-digger sister of yours!

“Come on. You are getting hot-tempered again.

I just hug Alexa's arm on our way back to the office building. We ended up talking about another topic. It looks like she forgot her crazy ideas that she intends to force into my brain.

"HI, GIRLS!"

We were about to board the elevator when Chester greeted us. He also accompanied us into the elevator.

Alexa kicked me, signaling me. I rolled my eyes at the ceiling. Here we are again. What’s new? Since my first day at work, I have noticed Chester's inquisitiveness.

I don’t know if it was just me, but Chester often asks me some useless things as long as he has a chance. Our officemates once told me that Chester was interested in me. He was trying to hit on me, so he was acting like that towards me. But because I only focused on one man, I didn't care.

“You had lunch together, and you didn't even invite me,” Chester added with a smile. He stands next to me.

“It's just an accident. We just went down at the same time. ” Alexa replied.

I did not say a word and let them talk to each other. I was about to change positions with Alexa when Chester put me in the conversation again.

“How was your lunch, Elle? Where did you eat?

And because I was not rude, I answered. "Just there, nearby."

Chester smiled. The dimples appeared on both his cheeks. Well, he is quite a looker. I know many of our officemates were attracted to him. But he never really affected me.

“How are you? You have been absent for days.

"I'm good already." I smiled at him.

We are just like that. He will ask, I will answer. If the observations of our officemates are correct, then I should put a distance between us. It is hard being misinterpreted if I will be kind and accommodating to him.

“If you haven't known already, I have a background in being a nurse, I could have taken good care of you.

“There you go, Chester! You're getting better! ” Alexa suddenly exclaimed.

"Is it good?" Chester ride on Alexa's teasing.

“Yeah, it's fine. You do better. And maybe you can win Ellery's heart that way. Just keep on going!” She cheered.

I glared at Alexa. “What are you doing, girl?

“Oh, why? What's wrong with what I said?" Alexa feigned innocence.

‘This crazy girl! I think I will be pimped. Why is she doing all of it when she knows whom I want. ' I told myself.

“Oh, my Gosh! I left my planner at the resto. I should go back. Wait, you go first.” Alexa said in dazed.

I glared at her. I know her too well. Maybe this is just one of her ways for Chester and me to go back to the office together.

“What? That's true, girl. I left my planner at the resto. All the details of my other projects were all there.

If Alexa hadn't been flustered, I wouldn't have let her leave us in the elevator. She went down to the next floor and decided to go back to the resto.

And there, Chester and I left in the elevator together. We also went back to the office while talking about everything. He was nice to talk to. He loves to joke. His voice is also beautiful. He would go through the songs and jokes when he had something to say. I just kept laughing as we entered the office.

Luke's POV

"I WILL accompanied you through your table."

“Nah! No need. What am I? A child straying in this building?

“Not really. But— ”

"All right, go straight to your place."

“But—”

"Go."

"Alright. But be careful, huh? I will still love you.” The man winked and smiled.

Ellery was momentarily stunned, but then, she shook her head. “You and your pure nonsense. You go ahead.

“All right, boss. Boss of my life.” And the man saluted first before changing direction.

Ellery went straight to us. I don't think she already noticed that we're here at her table. She was busy tapping her cellphone.

"Hey, why the long face?" Suzette whispered to me. I've almost forgotten we’ve been talking.

I was distracted by the conversation I heard while entering the coordinating department. I know the sound of Ellery's laughter. So I immediately turned to the source of the voice. But I was just shocked to see the man she was with her. I have long noticed that one was hanging out with Ellery. I don't like him. He seems to be a deceiver type and not satisfied with one woman. And if Ellery mentions that the guy is flirting with her, I will immediately warn her not to make a mistake in having a relationship with that one. Qr else she'll get hurt.

When that happens, I might break a bone of her officemate.

No. I must beat him into pulp.
