Purple Romance

Chapter 93: 93 Spring to bring me you 3

Both Calia and Rihan laughed and turned to look at the platform. They were both being professional at that moment.

''I feel that our collaboration will be a very successful one. This place is really beautiful. Saint Group recently entered the market in Cosmos and they are already taking over a lot of businesses. I have personally met with the chairman, Aaron Saint himself while I was working on a project with his best friend's wife, Liyah Myers".

''Really?' Aaron Saint was Ad-Din's senior at the University. He is a really capable businessman and his wife also happens to be the main perfumist that is sponsoring our show'' Calia added.

''I've heard about his wife. She is really popular in D-City''

''How do you find this setting? I mean the design and everything else? You are a professional on the runway, your opinion is greatly appreciated'' Calia said changing the subject.

''Well, everything is perfect. The platform is smooth and not slanted. Overall, I like the place'' Rihan said.

''Thank you'' Calia's phone rang at that moment and she removed it from her pocket. Rihan saw the caller ID and frowned. Calia smiled and walked away to a distance ignoring Rihan completely.

''Hello, Dr. Brian. I'm a little busy right now and I still have to go and meet with the father of the child model I told you about. Oh, you are taking your daughter to meet someone? Who? I hope is not a woman? Okay, then, let's meet after that. I also want to meet your daughter, mm, bye'' Calia hung up and turned and saw Rihan walking towards her.

''Was that Kobby?'' Rihan asked and Calia frowned but answered her anyway.

''Yes. I have to go somewhere and meet someone. Let's talk again later'' Calia said and gestured at Marvel who was still standing by the platform and Marvel walked towards them.

''Are you going to meet with Kobby, later on?'' Rihan asked.

''I'm not sure how that is any business of yours, but all the same, yes. Is there a problem?'' Calia asked.

''Not really. Now you that he is my ex-boyfriend. I mean Kobby Brian. What are you going to do now?'' Rihan asked and Marvel looked at them with eyes wide opened.

''What do you want me to do? I don't care whether you are his ex-girlfriend or not. I love Kobby and that's that'' Calia said confidently.

''I still love him. Seeing that we already have a history, shouldn't you back out and give us the chance to be together again? After all, weren't you cheering me on?:' Rihan said and Calia chuckled.

''Right, I was cheering you on, but that was before I found out the truth. Rihan, I love Kobby and I am not backing out because of you or anyone''

''Really? Even if the man doesn't like you? You said he asked you to try and seduce him? That could only mean one thing. Kobby doesn't like you that much. Hemight even be playing with you because you are cute and a bit childish'' Rihan smiled and Calia's face changed.

''That is for Kobby to decide. Rihan, why are you unnecessarily targeting me? am I that much of a threat to you?''

''You''

''What? Listen to me, I really like you and thought we could be friends, but right now. I can never be friends with a woman who has her eyes set on my man. let's just remain business partners, though I doubt that will be for long because your look right now, don't seem professional enough. I still have something to do, so I will take my leave first'' Calia said and walked away, not giving her the chance to retaliate.

''Calia 3, Rihan 0'' Marvel blurted out before realising what she said and covered her mouth. The glare of Rihan totally scared her and Marvel ran after Calia. Rihan stomped her foot to the floor angrily and clenched her fist together.

At the door, Marvel was running down the stairs in her heels and tripped at the hall. She called out to Calia and the latter turned to look at her but it was too late. They were far from each other. Calia screamed at Marvel and ran to her but it was too late.

Marvel who was preparing to land on the floor didn't feel any impact. Instead, she smelt a man's cologne and a man's arms wrapped securely around her waist.

Calia heaved a relief and rushed to them, seeing Marvel in her elder cousin's arms, she relaxed and touched her racing heart and spoke ''elder brother''

Max turned and looked at Calia while his arms still wrapped around Marvel's waist. He looked at the flustered and horrified look on the woman's face and spoke ''are you okay? Can you stand on your feet?''

Marvel nodded confusedly and Max helped her to stand well. Calia went to Marvel's side and held the latter's hand as she was still confused.

''Marvel, are you okay? I always tell you to be careful. What would I do if you got hurt? Let me see, did you get hurt somewhere?'' Calia said and worriedly checked Marvel's body meanwhile Marvel and Max's gaze were fixed on each other. For a reason, Marvel still felt an electric current flowing in her from waist that the man held just now.

''Are you alright?'' Max asked and looked at her face worriedly. Marvel came back to her senses and shook her head.

''I'm fine. Thank you'' Marvel finally said and saw a phone that laid on the floor. Max followed her gaze and saw that his phone was on the floor. It was probably because he casually grabbed the little woman that his phone fell to the floor. he went and picked it up and found the screen broken.

''Elder brother, is the phone broken?'' Calia said and helped Marvel down the last row of stairs and they stood by Max.

''Elder brother?'' Marvel said questionably. She had only known that there was an old brother that managed the Denarius Group but she was just a simple girl and didn't have much interest in the entertainment news apart from one that had to do with her scope of work. It was not surprising that she didn't know who Max Denarius was.

''Oh, he is my elder cousin, Max. Elder brother, thanks for saving my secretary. She could be a little careless sometimes'' Calia said and Marvel pinched her ''aaah, what? Did I say something wrong?'' Calia turned and glared at Marvel. Marvel was about to retort when Max turned and looked at her and she pursed her lips shyly and looked away.

''The phone is broken; I hope nothing important is on it?'' Calia asked and Marvel looked at the phone.

''No, don't worry. I will either get it fixed or get a new one'' Max said and glanced at Marvel.

''No!!'' Marvel snatched the phone from Max and they looked at her. ''I will compensate you, since I was the one who caused it'' Marvel said and looked at him.

''Marvel, money is what my brother has and doesn't even know how to spend it. What compensation will you possibly make for this phone? Do you even know how much this phone cost?'' Calia said and looked at Marvel amusingly.

''How much does it cost?'' Marvel asked and looked at Calia.

''It cost at least $10,000 dollars. Tell me, you can afford that with the way you love money'' Calia said and Marvel frowned, biting her lips and Max looked at her interestingly.

''Don't scare her, Cal. Don't worry, you are my little sister's secretary. I can't possibly let you compensate me?'' Max told her.

''Max, I really wished I could stay and chat but I have a very important meeting that I need to rush to. Max, please, can you send Marvel home for me? I am taking the car, so she won't be able to use it and her place is a bit far'' Calia said and took off.

''But, Miss'' Marvel blushed and looked as Calia went away.

''Let's go'' Max said to Marvel.

''Huh?'' Marvel looked at him and flushed. She didn't know what was suddenly wrong with her.

''Cal asked me to send you home'' Max said.

''No, that won't be necessary. I already feel apologetic for making your phone to fall. I don't want to owe you again. I hate owing people I don't know debts'' Marvel said.

''That makes the two of us. I also don't like owing people, so I have to take you home or else Calia will not let me hear the end of it. also, it seems your leg is twisted a bit'' Max said and looked at her long legs. Marvel wore short trouser pants that stopped at her thighs. She looked down and saw that her left leg really did bruise a little.

"But"

''Do you want me to carry you out instead? There are quite a number of people here?'' Max said and looked at her. Marvel saw the resolute in his eyes and shook her head immediately.

''No!!! That won't be necessary. I already feel apologetic for making your phone to fall. I don't want to owe you again. I hate owing people I don't know debts'' Marvel said.
