Chapter 126 - Get you ass out of my office

Owen winced in pain when Calvin pinched his arm. 

Rubbing the sore spot, Owen frowned, "Dude, why the hell did you pinch me?" 

"Wait what? A date?" Ellie frowned.

When nobody said anything, she glared at Sebastian and snapped, "What is Owen talking about?" 

When Calvin told Owen about the whole situation, he widened his eyes in shock and jolted up. Nervously scratching his head, he tried to rephrase his sentence. "Date? Did I say date? I meant deal, yes a deal. Sebastian had to meet a woman named Charlotte for a deal." 

"Yes Owen is right, we were talking about a deal which–"

Ignoring Noah, Ellie frowned depper at Sebastian and hissed,"What is Owen talking about? You went on a date with another woman?" 

Calvin got up and was about to defend his friend when Sebastian gestured him to stop. 

Turning towards El, he said, "When you were in Seattle, I had to go on a date with someone."

"But you told me you had stopped going on blinds dates after I joined office and–" Pausing midway, she pursed her lips. "You lied to me." 

Placing his hand on her shoulder, he tried to explain himself. "I didn't want to but—"

"But what? Did someone tie your legs and hands and threw you in front of that woman or were you on gun point? Stop giving me your lousy excuses Sebastian." Jerking his hands off her shoulders, she snapped, "And it's not even about the date, you lied to me Sebastian." 

"Look I know I shouldn't have lied to you but I thought you would get mad at me so—"

Cutting him off, she snapped harder, "So you wisely decided to lie to me? Oh look, it's Ellie and she is stupid, she will believe whatever I tell her so let's lie to her because she is too dumb to find out." 

Grabbing her hand, he said, "You know I would never hurt you on purpose Ellie." 

"Purposely or not Sebastian but you did hurt me right? Go camping with that date girl of yours and have a lovely time with her." Without waiting for his reply, she dashed out of the office.

Smacking Owen's head, Calvin frowned, "You are a very dumb man." 

"Hey, no one told me that we were supposed to hide this from Ellie," Owen defended himself.

Melissa sighed and helplessly shook her head. "I told you that this isn't a very good idea Noah. El might look sweet and easy going from the outside but she has a really bad temper." 

Sebastian rushed out of the office and so did Melissa and Ava.

….

Ellies office.

With her arms crossed at the front, Ellie was pacing back and forth in her office, boiling in anger. She was very mad at Sebastian for going on a date with some other woman when he had yet to take her out for an official date and for lying to her.

Just then Sebastian entered the office and quietly stood by the door.

Ignoring him, she made her way towards her desk and took out some papers from the drawer.

Walking towards her, he sighed, "I know you are mad at me but at least listen to me first."

"Why should I? So that you can lie to me again? And what do you wanna say? Will you tell me why did you go for that date? If you are really planning to lay down your stupid reasons then you better leave." The mere thought of him going out with some other woman was giving her a headache. She was very mad and may be jealous too. 

"El please—"

Cutting him off, she snapped, "I don't wanna talk to you or be anywhere near you right now so please leave me alone for a while." 

"Are you mad at me?" He asked.

"Yes, I am very mad at Sebastian Stewart and if you don't want things to turn ugly then you better take your ass out of my office," she yelled which scared the shit out of Sebastian.

Without wasting any time, he gulped in nervousness and rushed outside.

As soon as he left, Melissa and Ava stepped inside the office.

"Woah, no one has ever shouted at the great Sebastian Stewart like that," Ava chuckled.

Massaging her forehead, Ellie sighed. She was having a really bad headache and her anger was making it worse.

"El, are you okay?" Melissa inquired.

"How on earth can I be okay Melissa? The man I love is going out on dates with some other woman while I am with him, do you think this is something that will make me feel okay?" Ellie snapped.

Ava sighed and pursed her lips before saying. "Look El, I know you that if I will say anything, you'll probably think that I am defending my brother but I am not. You have all the right to be mad at him, in fact, you can all throw things at him. I know what Sebastian did was wrong but he had no other choice." 

"You will hate this but I agree with Ava on this one."

"Mel what are you–"

Cutting her off, Melissa added, "Don't be mad at me but I knew about this date thing." 

"You knew? And you also kept this away from me?" Ellie shouted.

"Noah told me about it the very day Sebastian went on a date. In fact, everyone mutually decided that it would be nice if he attended the date that his mom had arranged for him," Pausing for a while, Melissa continued, "Sebastian really had no choice."

Ava vigorously nodded her head and said, "Mom told him that if he didn't attend the date then she would fly back immediately and none of us wanted that. Seb was really against it but we told him that if he didn't and if mom really came back, everything would become chaotic for you, Seb, me and Ca–" stopping midway, she continued, "For all the three of us. Things are so nice and fun right now, we just didn't want mom to ruin it."
