Chapter 112: "Is he sick?"

Scarlett's pov.

Fen enters the office yet again and the look on his face tells me all I need to know.

Roman has been calling.

I look at Aria and smile, “Give me a minute, Miss Tyson.”

Aria doesn’t even look up from her phone as she nods her head. This was not what I had in mind and it’s bugging me out that I haven't resolved whatever issue she’s here for.

“I thought you said she was going to be gone in the next five minutes.”

I give Fen the sweetest smile my nervous body can manage and I take his phone from him

“It hasn’t been five minutes… yet.”

I pick up the call immediately and brace myself for the worst as I place the phone at my ear.

“Vivian Davidson on the line. How may I be of service to you?”

Roman chuckles deeply and my body threatens to light up with desire.

“I see you’ve adjusted to your new role with ease. You sound happy.”

I want to nod and say I am, and I am but I'm also anxious. I settle for a roundabout statement instead.

“Being CEO for a day would make anyone happy.”
