《Love on Top》Ch.6
Advertisement
I had broken up with Morgan a few days ago. I had found her fucking one of my employees,who I had fired for the incident,and evidently this has been going on for at least six weeks. Her unfaithfulness actually gave me an excuse for breaking up with her. I'm ecstatic to be rid of her for good. I couldn't handle the constant moaning,whining,and complaining that slipped through her lips naturally whenever I was around. It was aggravating to hear her complain about every single thing like a spoiled brat.
"Sà mù āi ěr, zěnme huí shì?Nǐ sìhū chūlái," My mother said (translation: Samuel,what is the matter? You seem out of it). I snapped out of my reverie and looked at her.
"Māmā, wǒ hěn hǎo," I assured her (translation: Mother,I am fine).
"I am just checking because you seem so out of it. Is it because of that awful Morgan girl?" She looked at me.
"No,mother. Morgan is far from my mind as of lately," I responded.
"I was happy that you actually broke up with her. She was a horrendously spoiled harlot that can't even keep her legs closed," Mother miffed. I mentally rolled my eyes.
"Some day soon,you'll take a nice,pretty Taiwanese girl as your wife who you will have kids with," She smiled hopefully.
"Yeah," I muttered. I thought back to the woman I saw at the coffee shop and Sakagura yesterday. She was even more beautiful in my opinion. I wouldn't mind dating her at all.
"Samuel," My mother snapped her fingers in front of my face.
"Huh?" I looked at her.
"Xiànzài, yǒu shé me bùduì?Nǐ huà chūláile," She rejoined (translation: Now what's wrong? You zoned out again).

"Nothing," I emitted.
"It isn't nothing,Samuel. Now tell me," She dictated.
"I assure you that it's nothing," I said.
"If you say so," She eyed me suspiciously. I checked the time on my watch. I get up suddenly.
"Where are you going,Samuel?" She asked.
"Back to work. I have a meeting that starts in two hours. I can't be late,mother," I answered.
"Wǒ huì kàn dào nǐ yǐhòu zài," She sighed (translation: I will see you later then).
"Zàijiàn, māmā," I replied (translation: Goodbye,Mother). I kissed her forehead then left after paying the bill. I get into my car and drive back to the office. I see Mindy sitting at the front desk taking calls.
"Mr.Zhāng,a Morgan Hills called. She said that she wanted to speak to you," Mindy informed me.
"Mindy,if she calls again,please say that I'm busy," I murmured.
"Yes,sir," She nods.
"Thank you," I said. I walked towards the elevator with a sigh. This is the fifth time this week that's she's called the office. She needs to give up already. I'm not interested in talking to her at all nor will I ever be. When I reached my floor,I got off the elevator and headed towards my office.
"Welcome back from lunch,sir. How was it?" My assistant Bridgette questioned.
"Fine," I answered.
"That's nice to hear,sir. You have a call on line one from Mr.Romanoff," Bridgette informed me.
"Alright. Thank you,Bridgette," I nodded.
"Sir,your meeting is in an hour and a half," She informed.
"Alright," I murmured as I walked into my office.
"Do you need anything,sir?" Bridgette questioned.
"No,Bridgette. That'll be all," I answered. She nods then steps out after closing the door. I sighed then answered the call on line one.

After my meeting with other respective company leaders,I went back to my office and plopped into the desk chair tiredly. My cellphone rang. Without even checking caller I.D,I pressed accept. I put it to my ear.
"Samuel," I heard Morgan's voice on the other end. I hung up before she could even get another word in. Honestly.I'm getting sick and tired of her. Why can't she get it through her thick skull that I don't want to talk to her,look at her,or even breathe next to her. I need to just be done with her altogether. I guess I'll have to just change my number. Bridgette walks into my office after knocking on the door.
"Mr.Zhāng,there are some things that need your approval," She informed.
"Just set them down," I responded.
"Do you need anything at all,sir?" She asked.
"No,Bridgette," I shook my head. I got started on the proposals that needed my approval. She left the office after nodding once. I thought back to that woman I saw at the coffee shop a few weeks ago. Why am I thinking of her? She probably already has a significant other. But then again,she was so beautiful that I couldn't get her image out of my mind. My only regret is that I didn't even ask her for her name. I sighed to myself and looked over the files that needed my approval right now.
Hopefully,and I mean it,we will meet again.
