BXBX NOVEL Chapter 557: Dig A Hole
Chapter 557: Dig A Hole
Daryl kept loading Kenzie with heavy work every day and Kenzie had to stay back after work hours to finish the work. She always tried to finish work with the least or no mistakes and make Daryl happy.
As much she wanted Daryl to admire her, he kept a firm stoic appearance in front of her and scolded her very often for the smallest of her mistakes.
She was trying her best to do flawless work. She wanted to see him smile at her and recognize and accept her love for him.
Kenzie knew that it was not simply infatuation or any stubborn attempt to get what she wanted, but her heart had truly fallen for him. She was aware that Daryl didn't understand that love of hers but she was hopeful that he would soon see her hard work and dedication for him and realize her feelings toward him.
Daryl entered the office and sighed seeing the innocent and smiling face of Kenzie, who would come before him every day and would stay even after he left. He was astonished to see her diligence and perseverance. How much he tried to burden her with work and thought she would give up on following him, but she didn't.
He sighed once again before thinking what else he could do to make her realize that she was simply infatuated with him and there were no real feelings between them.
He went inside his cabin, called Kenzie in, and asked her to bring a coffee. As soon she left, he buried himself in the work files.
Kenzie brought his favourite breakfast along with the coffee for him, as she wanted to show her care to him.
She kept the coffee and the box of breakfast on his desk and told him in a low voice about it and left.
He just nodded his head when he heard the word 'coffee' and buried his head in his file again.
Kenzie left and turned her head once to see the busy man. A blush crept up on her beautiful face seeing the handsome working profile of the man she loved.
She sat down in her chair, inhaled loudly, and closed her eyes and his handsome face danced in front of her. She wanted to grab him and kiss him. She immediately opened her eyes and saw no one around and giggled then shook her head, slapping lightly on her forehead for always thinking only about him.
'But… I'm really longing for his kiss.' She mused helplessly as she walked back to her area and seat to finish the file he asked. She yawned, feeling sleepy because of the lack of sleep in the past few days.
A little time passed and she felt as if someone was standing by her side. She was startled to see Daryl standing there and looking at her with a deep gaze.
'What is that? Is it real or am I just daydreaming… hallucinating again?' She inwardly pondered because Daryl was looking at her with an affectionate stare.
But his look changed and reverted back to the cold shoulders that he always gave her.
She stood up with a jolt and looked at him and asked, "What happened, Sir? Do you need something? Why didn't you call me?"
Daryl sharpened his gaze and said, "I asked you to bring coffee. Did you bring the sandwich also for me?"
"Yes! I thought you came a little early to the office today and you might have not had your breakfast because of being in a hurry! So I bought your favorite breakfast. Did you like it?" Kenzie said, a little excited in her heart.
Daryl smiled and his gaze softened. His tone changed into a very soft and loving one when he said his next words, "Kenzie, I keep putting you in trouble every day and yet you care so much about me and even my food. I know I have been very harsh with you. But the way you have been working hard and are being sincere with your efforts... I am moved.
I have no shame in accepting that I have tried my best in remaining away from you though my heart had wanted to be with you from the first day you started working for me here." As he said those words,? he stretched out his hands and held her face between them.
Daryl's thumbs brushed against her cheeks and he moved his face near her. So near that she could feel his hot breath on her burning face. Her eyes widened with surprise when she realized he was bending down and the distance between their lips was just two, three inches.
Kenzie wanted to say something. She opened her mouth to say, but before she could utter even a word her lips were blocked and sealed by his hot and demanding lips. Daryl crashed his lips on hers and kissed her hard.
Kenzie was shocked and stood stunned there with the sudden happiness that came suddenly in her life and she savored the kiss and was completely drowned in the moment.
Kenzie closed her eyes and was lost in that deep and demanding kiss of Daryl and her arms wrapped around his neck.
"Kenzie….. Kenzie…."
She heard a voice coming from a little distance and struggled to free herself from Daryl as she was afraid that they would be caught by other staff and teased by them. As she struggled, she felt that someone had caught her arms tightly and she suddenly opened her eyes.
What she saw was just unimaginable and her face turned deep red because of the embarrassment.
Daryl was standing right in front of her, trying to wake her up and she wondered what was happening. That was when she realized that she was dreaming and Daryl had come to her desk looking for her when she didn't respond to his calls.
She wanted to dig a hole and hide from him as this was the first time ever she had dreamt of a man like this and he was standing in front of her looking at her with his same cold and irritated face.
"Kenzie Chua, I am calling you since so long and here you are sleeping and dreaming on your desk! My coffee is cold and I want a fresh cup of hot coffee on my table now!"
"Yes, Sir, I will get it right away." Kenzie stuttered and scurried away immediately hiding her blushing eyes from him. Apparently, she slept without her knowing and ended up in another daydreaming!
