Ms. Attractive and inciting CEO Chapter 409 - The attack on Hope

Chapter 409 - The attack on Hope

"Did you like my girlfriend Ms. Herren. Can you help me to propose her" he asked.

Hope is still dumbfounded that she kept on staring at her image on the mirror. After a few moments of shock and turmoil her brain started to work again.

As if lightning bolt has. .h.i.t her she started remembering the recent actions of Enrick. Ahh….h.e.l.l! He has been fooling her since long.

Such a tease…

"But boss. Why do I feel like your girlfriend is not happy. See….her eyes are teared up." Hope played along with him.

In no way she will let him win this. What will be more satisfying than defeating him in his own game…

"My bad, Ms. Herren. She use to fool me a lot so I decided to make her taste her own medicine but I think I overdid it. I am afraid if she is angry on me" Rick said.

Hope could see his sincerity. She is looking at his image on the mirror whereas he is also facing the mirror rather than her.

"Yes boss. She look so angry. I think you have to face a great deal in order to pacify her anger. All the best boss" Hope smirked.

'Let's see how you will beg me now' Hope thought and smiled.

Rick shook his head at her.

"Ms. Herren, I called you here so you will help me. Can't you give me a advice?.." he looked directly at Hope and asked.

She looked at her surroundings….he have done a lot for her. And how can she forget that this is the most awaited day in her life. She want to play more but this is not the right time.

"Boss, why don't you confess how much you love her and how you fell in love with her. I am sure you have never acted romantic with her till now." Hope mocked.

Rick sighed. She looked into her eyes through the reflection of her image. And smiled "Hope, I fell in love with you long back but I was so conflicted about my feelings for you. It is because I have never felt like this for anyone till now but after realizing how much I am in love with you I started to avoid you. It is because I was afraid if you will get hurt because of me. My life is not as simple as you think…and that is the only reason I use to act like that. But, I can't act anymore…I wanted to spend my life with you, I wanted to enjoy each and every minute with you" he smiled.

" I love you Hope. Are you ready to spend rest of your life with me? and I promise you, I am not as boring as you think. I am romantic and I can also make you laugh. I will also learn cooking and cleaning…I will do laundry. Moreover I am not strict as I be in office .." he continued..

Both of them are laughing as he continued. It is because he is very very strict and indifferent according to the world. Only his family and close friends know his humorous side.

"Enough....enough boss. I think she is impressed….see she is also laughing" Hope laughed till her eyes teared up.

Rick laughed as he looked at her with love and warmth in his eyes. He wanted to make her laugh and he did.

"OK, Hope. Let's be serious. Are you ready to spend rest of your life with me" he asked and extended his hand to her while he took out ring with other hand.

Hope nodded her head and placed her hand in his. "I am waiting for this words since almost one year Rick" she choked a little as her eyes misted.

She called him 'Rick' and his eyes twinkled listening to her calling him with his name. Without any further delay he placed the ring to her finger.

Taking her into his embrace he kissed her pa.s.sionately. "See, I can also be romantic" saying so he kissed her again. Then another…till they satiated their hunger for each other.

Who can blame them…both have been starving for each other since very long.

"Only a kiss cannot define whether you are romantic or not" Hope teased.

"Then we will continue after we reach your house" he said in husky voice and she s.h.i.+vered a little.

"I cooked your favorite dishes come on" he wrapped his arms around her waist and both of them walked into parking lot.

Both are smiling widely and are engrossed in talking with each other but Rick is as attentive as always.

His eyes scanned the deserted parking lot and his body tensed. Something is fishy…

He increased his pace and tightened his arms around Hope. No he can't loose Hope or let anyone harm her....

"Rick, what's wrong. Why are you so rushed.." Hope asked confusingly.

"No baby. Everything is fine, I am excited to make you taste my dishes. That's all" Rick tried to distract her. Meanwhile he tried to contact him team. But in vain.

His heart started to beat furiously as he noticed some silhouette's through his periphery vision. With his fast instincts he dodged a bullet coming towards them and pulled Hope in to his arms, s.h.i.+elding her with his own body.

Before others could fire them, the couple swiftly hid behind one of the many cars.

Rick pressed the b.u.t.ton for reinforcement which will take ten to fifteen minutes to reach.

He looked at Hope and his heart shuddered with fear. This attack is nothing to him but with Hope it is different.

"Hope, take this gun. Shoot if you need to, baby don't be afraid.." even before he could give her some strength, Hope took the gun swiftly and shot the person with sheer accuracy.

How dare he target her Rick.

"Boss, come let's have some fun" Hope said.
