Tales Of Love

Santiago got into his car and drove off. When he got to his villa, he went to his bedroom. He had always shared this bedroom with Aurora anytime she stayed over at his place.

He opened the closet, all her belongings were still there and intact. It was as if it’s just yesterday that Aurora left. He ran his hands over her clothing as if trying to feel her presence.

He took her night wear, and held it. This was the night dress Aurora wore the last day she spent in his villa before everything got distorted.

He remembered how happy he was when he walked in from his study and saw Aurora angrily waiting for him.

“Santiago, why would you ask Jasper Milo to buy Such a transparent night wear?”Aurora complained. She was covering her chest with her hand when she saw him walk in.

He chuckled. He was the one that instructed Jasper Milo to buy something he would appreciate. Jasper had over done it. He went and bought a sexy transparent open chest gown.

When Jasper was handing the package to Aurora, he remembered that he gave him a wink. He immediately knew that Jasper was at it again.

“Why are you complaining? The gown is just perfect for you” he said as he giggled.

“Why won’t I complain, I am the one wearing it after all?” Aurora hissed and eyed him. Santiago can be so annoying at times. She was not pleased with the gown and he was happy and giggling, that infuriated Aurora the more.

“You needed a night dress and I asked Jasper Milo to get you one . What you wanted was nightwear and that’s exactly what you got.

And besides, I think I like it very much because it gives me room to have a proper look of what would make me feel horny”Santiago said and didn’t wait another minute before bolting out of the door.

He went downstairs to bring them milk. Aurora was going to throw a pillow at him if he stayed a minute longer.

“You are dirty minded Santiago. I will not wear…”. Santiago remembered that night and had a feeling of nostalgia.

He brought the dress close to his nostrils and tried to inhale Aurora’s smell. It’s been a long time and he really misses her.

Next morning, Santiago walked into the President Office full of expectations. He was secretly wishing for Grey to show up. If Grey accepted his offer and came, he was on the path of achieving his aim.

He had hardly sat down when his phone rang. The receptionist told him that a young man by the name Grey Logan was waiting to see him.

“Send him in,” Santiago said and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his lips.

Soon there was a knock on his door and Grey entered. He looked smart and handsome in his Suit.

Santiago looked at the poker faced Grey and chuckled quietly. The guy was handsome and really fit into the position of the sales manager.

Grey greeted Santiago and sat down on the guest seat. He looked at the luxurious office and was carried away by its designs. This was his first time in Santiago’s office.

The exquisite chair of the President, the furnishings of the office, the wall decoration and the rare type of ceiling was all that Grey was admiring that he didn’t hear Santiago talking to him.

“Grey!” This was the third time Santiago had called him. He had to raise his voice the third time before Grey heard him.

Grey was brought back to his senses as he gave a jerk. He felt stupid.

“I am right here, President Axel” Grey said. He must say this office depicts how rich and famous the company had grown.

“Mm.. mm”Santiago sighed. He’s here indeed. He had called him three times and he only heard him the third time. He was Sure he’s really with him.

“You will be shown to your office and you’ll start work immediately” Santiago had just finished talking when a lady walked in.

“Sir,” The lady that just walked in said and stood in front of Santiago’s desk.

“This is Grey Logan. The new sales manager. Introduce him to the other managers and show him his office” Santiago instructed.

His face was expressionless. He seldom smiles except on rare occasions or in the past when he would be with Aurora.

The lady turned to Grey and smiled. Grey stood up and they both shook hands. “You are welcome to the Axel group, Mr Grey. I am Judy Austin the sales rep”

“Nice meeting you” Grey smiled, exposing his diastema. Judy Austin liked the friendly looks of the new manager.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

They both went out of the President’s office. Judy Austin took Grey round and finally to his office.

She informed him that there will be a party held to welcome him officially to the company. She will get back to him the time and venue of the party.

Grey thanked her and she in turn told him to feel free to ask her questions of things he needed clarification on.

After about an hour in his new office, he received a message. Checking it, he saw alerts of a year’s salary. He smiled. Santiago was true to his words.

Eve Diego was pacing inside her bedroom. She was tired of waiting. Santiago should have taken a step towards having their engagement rescheduled.

She had been waiting for months but he made no move about it. He traveled out of the country for three months without informing her of his journey.

Now he’s back and didn’t even place a call across to her. He had never called her for any reason whatsoever, she doubts if he has her contact.

She’s his fiancee in name alone, He never recognises her nor takes her out to public gatherings and events. She wants to be recognised and respected by everyone as Santiago’s woman.

She expected her father to mount pressure on that old hag who made a promise of getting his grandson engaged to her. But it seemed everyone was afraid of offending Santiago.

She needed to visit the Axel group. She had to publicize herself as their President fiance since Santiago was not willing to.

She dressed up, wearing heavy makeup. She wore a short blue gown with a white jacket on it. On her feet were high heeled sandals which matched with her designer’s bag.

She called the chauffeur to drive her to the Axel group.

She sat comfortably in the car. She knew her father was going to call her soon to ask why she was not at work at the company. She took her mobile phone and switched it off.

Soon she arrived at the Axel group. She looked at herself in the mirror and was pleased with her looks. She stepped out of the car delicately and went towards the elevator .
