Page 4 of My Tempting Woman

“What’s her age, mom?” Steve inquired

‘ She is 20."

“Is she pretty?

“Yes ‘

“Then I didn’t have any issues with her staying here. If you want, she can share my room too. You know I have a big room."

Rose smacked his arm. ’ You should stay away from her, and I already gave my word to her dad, Michael.

“Ooh, she is Michael’s daughter, Johnson, '"William asked in little surprise.

‘ “Yes. He just got transferred for six months on a project. That place was not safe for Eva, so I helped him and it was just a matter of six months.” “

“Fine then’ William dismissed the argument.

“Mom, dad, today I am leaving for Australia and will be back in some days. We got the email today. My presence is mandatory for this deal.

“Before that, I want to have a word with you, Stephen. Join me in the study room."

Stephen knew what it was about, so he just nodded. But he kissed his mom to wish him goodbye.

“Okay, take care, dear.“ Rose just took a deep sigh, as she knew Stephen was a workaholic man.

In the study room, Stephen was waiting for his dad to start the conversation

“Why did you do that?”

Stephen lifted an eyebrow at his dad

"You know, Stephen, what am I talking about? You know how important the partnership with Thompson is, but you were stillill-behaved with Elena. It was just a dance, Stephen. And then you left the party in between. “

“I am not interested in dancing with her."

“Hmm... you know the Thompson couple is interested in you. They want their daughter to get married to you.

“They said so, “he inquired his dad

“No, but their actions do, and they also gave hints to us about this."

“I don’t give a damn what they want or what they think. There is no wedding happening, and that’s for sure.

“And what will you do if they end the partnership? Look, Stephen, I don’t want to lose this deal. We both know how important Thompson's support is for this deal. “

Stephen chuckled. "They will not, and I will make sure of this."

William knew how sharp-minded Stephen was, so he just took a deep sigh, as if he had decided not to marry Elena. Then no one can change his decision. Stephen has been stubborn sincehis childhood days; any kind of scolding doesn’t change his decisions either.

“Now if I have answered all your doubts, can I leave as my jet is waiting for me?” stating this, he stood up and started walking towards the door but the next words from William made him stop

“But what should I say if they ask me about your...”

‘ “Leave it on me... goodbye, dad, “Stephen replied without even turning around

Stephen walked out of the study room. His car was already waiting to start at the airport. The moment he entered the airport,surrounded by his guards, the people present were awestruck, indicating his formidable aura. The girls were ogling him with longing, but Stephen didn’t even look around to observe all this. They well acquitted Stephen and talked about his effect on another gender. Till now, he has come across many girls who can do anything to get into his pants, but he was not interested in this kind of filing or relationship.

When he entered the jet, it surprised him to find Richard; his friend was already settled inside the jet and was flirting with the air hostess. The moment he made his presence noticeable to both, the air hostess shrieked in fear; she just wished for Stephen and left her cabin.
