Chapter 581 - Regina Heaven Arrived
~ Los Angeles, White Corp. HQ ~
(10:34 AM)
Steve is in the elevator, escorting to CEO's office young lady, Regina Heaven, who has the experience and a great record in managing finances for several resorts owned by the White family.
Edges of Regina's long brown hair are neatly braided and rolled around a ponytail. Her light blue suit fits her curvy body well, and she knows it. Her high-heeled pumps and miniskirt are attracting all gazes to her well-sculpted legs.
Regina arrived that morning in Los Angeles, freshened up in a hotel downtown and rushed to White Corp. HQ.
She is very excited to meet with Jeff. He is so dreamy, and he got her attention even before she started working for businesses owned by the White family. When she heard that he is looking for someone with experience in finances to help out with the newly acquired resort, she jumped into it without any hesitation. This is her chance to get on his radar. Her time is now!
Regina followed Steve to CEO's office, and she held her breath as she walked closer to the man sitting behind that large desk. Jeff was reading some documents, and he was even more dreamy in person!
Jeff looked up only when Steve was next to him.
Steve told him that it's Regina Heaven, to handle finances for the Golden Ocean Resort.
Jeff looked at the young woman who stood few steps away from his desk.
"Miss Heaven, you are early.", Jeff observed. "There is more than one hour until we go to the resort."
Regina flashed a charming smile. "Please, call me Regina, CEO White. I didn't realize how early it is. I was very excited to start working. I hope it's not inconvenient."
"Not really. But you need to wait for one hour. You can go and get a coffee downstairs; my secretary can show you the way."
"Is it OK if I wait here?", she pointed at the sofa.
Jeff shrugged. "If you are quiet..." He focused back on the documents.
Regina nodded and sat on the sofa without a word. She was happy that she got a chance to sit in the same space with Jeff. Her heart was pounding in her ears and she did her best to conceal her excitement. After some time, Regina got her phone out and kept busy with it. She took the opportunity to sneakily snap few photos of Jeff.
Regina observed that Jeff does not smile. His expression is aloof. Regina found Jeff to be so handsome that she had to remind herself to stay calm and not to pounce on him.
~ Golden Ocean Resort ~
(12:15 PM)
Jeff exited the helicopter and went straight into the main building of the resort without waiting for Steve and Regina.
Regina wanted to rush after him, but Steve stopped her.
"Boss will meet us at the café."
Regina frowned, obviously displeased by Steve's action. She was not happy that during their ride Jeff only answered her questions with brief 'yes' or 'no', but she told herself that he is busy working on his laptop. He is a busy man, after all. If he was not busy, he would definitely talk with her more.
And now Jeff was already out of sight. All because of this meddling assistant.
(12:21 PM)
Jeff got into JoAnna's office and flashed a smile as soon as he saw her all busy at her desk with some documents.
JoAnna kept the papers down and walked right into his hug. She wanted to pounce at him, but her skirt was tight.
"Steve is down in the café…", Jeff told Bridgette before his lips landed on JoAnna's.
Bridgette didn't need more than that. She swiftly left to give them privacy and to find her man. Bridgette didn't forget to lock the door behind her.
"How about… we go upstairs…?", Jeff asked between kisses while his hands squeezed her bottom.
JoAnna looked at him and blinked twice before speaking: "You know I have a desk right here?" She smiled mischievously.
In three seconds, her skirt was on the floor, and Jeff pinned her on the surface of her desk.
(12:47 PM)
"What is taking CEO White so long?", Regina asked for the fifth time since Bridgette arrived.
"He is in a meeting with resort owner.", Bridgette repeated her explanation.
"Why are you not in that meeting, if you are owner's assistant?", Regina could not hide that she is losing her temper. She was not sure if this owner is male or female, but the fact that she needs to sit here with these two people while Jeff is somewhere else is irking her.
"It's a private meeting.", Bridgette responded in a cold voice and continued fiddling with her phone.
Bridgette looked at this young woman, and her woman's intuition fired out warnings as soon as they met. At first, she thought that Regina is after Steve, but now that she got a chance to observe her, Bridgette knows that Steve is safe. It even looks that Regina dislikes Steve for some reason. However, the way the woman is dressed, her makeup, her fidgeting and persistent asking about Big Boss can only mean one thing: Bridgette needs to warn JoAnna. She is not hundred percent sure that this woman is after Jeff, but it's highly likely. And it can't hurt for JoAnna to be wary of this woman. Also, it seems that Regina does not know that owner of this resort is Jeff's fiancée. Bridgette hopes to witness in person when Regina realizes that.
Regina was glancing at the door every few minutes. She didn't come all the way here to sit with anybody other than Jeff, alright? Regina has everything planned: she will use her charms and good looks; at the same time, she will showcase her great skills in finances… perfect plan to get his attention and make him hers!
Steve and Bridgette started chatting and Regina felt completely ignored. It's not that she wanted their company, but they ignored her!
…
At about same time, up in JoAnna's office, JoAnna and Jeff are catching their breaths while exchanging kisses. JoAnna is sitting on her desk, her legs are wrapped around Jeff who is standing in front of her. She is left only in her bra, and Jeff's lone garment not on the floor is his unbuttoned shirt.
"I need a shower.", JoAnna said when her breathing stabilized.
"Don't… I want you to smell like me for the rest of the day." He embraced her tightly and wiggled a bit as if he wants to rub himself on her.
JoAnna giggled seeing how silly he is. "Mr. White! That is so not appropriate."
"Don't you like my scent?", Jeff innocently asked.
"I love it! I think it's the sexiest smell on the world! But when it's on you."
"Mrs. White, with this…", he rubbed himself on her again, "…you can close your eyes and imagine I'm right next to you."
JoAnna burst into laugh. "Does that mean you will not shower either?"
He confirmed and JoAnna gave in.. "OK. Fine! I will not shower… Eh, all the things I do for you…"
