Helena's POV:

We started at 9 am and soon reached there. The meeting starts at 9:30 . So, we were busy making our preparations. It was 9:25 and so we entered the meeting hall. Almost everyone reached there, except the CEO of YYY company. I heard a lot about his talent and greatness. But I had no idea about what his name is. We all waited for him to start the meeting.

Suddenly, the door opened slowly. Everyone turned their heads towards the door. A man in black suit entered the meeting hall. He's tall, handsome and attractive.

" Oh! He might be the CEO......", I thought in myself. Later he took his seat. I turned to the original position. I thought we could start the meeting then. Then..... , someone shouted,

"There he is....Mr.Chase Edwards,the CEO of this huge company......"

On hearing that,my heart began to race. I was not sure about that I was listening. I was like out of this world. I was not able to differentiate what is true and what not is.

"Did I hear something ....? And is that true?", I began questioning myself.

Then I turned around slowly to check what's going on there. My jaw dropped on to the floor when my eyes went on him. Yes! He is the one I waited for . He's Chase,my love. I was totally dumbstruck looking at him. I even pinched myself to check if it's true.What is he doing here? What is.....

" Oh my God! Wait! What? He's the CEO of this company!",later I understood.

I never expected this. What !,Chase is the head of the company I'm dealing with? How is this possible? This is really crazy. I was totally out of my mind. I heard the ladies beside me talking about him.

"Look! How handsome he is... I wish I could get someone like him!"..., someone chuckled.

I smiled for a while and felt lucky and proud that I saw this handsome first. Suddenly, I felt,

"Helena! What are you thinking of?Have you gone mad?"

The whole thing that happened a day before woked me out of my dream. He's in love with Hailey. Yes! He doesn't love me. This vanished my smile.

"Helena ......... wake up! Don't get struck in dreams"......

He then came in and sat infront of me. He gave me a smile,which I still remembered very well. He looked so handsome and hot actually, in his black formal suit. His messy black hair was partly covering his eyes. His dark brown eyes looked very attractive. But,I didn't gave him a smile in return. I looked at him seriously. All that Hailey told me, has really hurt me very badly. I remembered very well how this matter disturbed me the past two days. Again I began thinking

" How can he do that to me?"......

I know it's not his or Hailey's mistake. It is actually my mistake developing great hope on him. I wished I shouldn't meet him again. But I met him to my bad luck. I know very well,that I couldn't face him. If I go and talk to him,he might get an idea of what I was thinking about him. Because, he never failed in reading my mind. I don't want that. Hailey doesn't like me. I remembered her saying that I don't deserve Chase. That might be true. But,at that time, I felt that Chase too loves me. His eyes told me everything.But, how's this possible? I know how badly it hurts when someone you love , loves someone else or when someone you love don't love you. So,I don't want to create disputes between Chase and Hailey now. I felt tears slowly rolling down my cheeks.

While I was busy thinking all this, my manager Mr.Harry,called me to bring me to this world. He asked me if I was fine. I then rubbed my tears before letting anyone see me crying.l looked at him and said I was ok .Later,I observed that everyone including Chase were looking at me to start the meeting.

" God! What am I doing? This is my very first project. I shouldn't let my mood divert me . I should perform well in this meeting at any cost....", saying all this , I tried to encourage myself.

Then, I stood up and introduced myself wishing everyone, a very pleasant morning. I then started explaining about my project , about my designs in particular. I thought I shouldn't look at Chase . Because, if I look at him, I may get diverted.

I showed everyone my two special designs. The first one was a blue suit with checks all over. And the second one was a tuxedo.I tried to explain about it and the modifications I made to the casual suits. I also said them where it could be worn and particularly about the fabric used in making that etc. Then my manager too explained about it ,since we know how important this project is. It took us a very long time for that.

Everyone, from YYY company were happy and satisfied with these designs. I felt a sense of relief with that. Chase, being the CEO of that company,congratulated me and our entire company for this project. They also asked us for making their next project with us. My team members felt very happy listening to that. Then Chase began saying,

" I heartfully welcome you to the party we are going to arrange in about two days from now. I wish everyone from your company to attend this party...."

Finally,before leaving the meeting hall, he said again,

" Hopefully,I guess e v e r y o n e would attend the party without any fail .... Ok...."

This time,he looked at me while saying these words. I felt,

" What does he mean by 'everyone'?

Is he saying about me? Is he really........

No! Helena .... Don't think much. You're not too special to him...."

I shouldn't stay here anymore. As my meeting is over, hopefully I could leave this place. As I already said,I can't face him. I can't hide my love for him. I saw him coming towards me . But, very quickly I vacated the place,not even thinking of how it hurts him. I felt I should run this time.

I then mingled with my staff and asked my manager if we could leave. He said ok and then we took a taxi.

While moving on, I thought of Chase if he got hurt because of me. I asked Mr. Harry if I could leave Los Angeles as I have no interest in attending the party ( Actually I do want to attend the party but I'm sure I can't make it out if he gets to know about my love towards him. I may get insulted if he too feels that I don't deserve him. So,I thought of leaving that place.)
