“Are you getting on, Miss Stewart?”
Oliver Fox’s voice rolled over me like hot butter. He once again had me mesmerized with his beauty. Today, he wore a black suit, crisp lavender shirt, and purple tie. He looked so well put together. He folded The Wall Street Journal he was reading and stuck it under his arm.
“Well?”
“I—uh….”
The door started to close, and he hit the button on the panel to hold it open. I finally recovered and stepped inside, immediately hit with the scent of his cologne. That clean scent was perfect for him. I moved to the corner of the elevator as the door closed, and as it did, it dawned on me that he addressed me by my last name.
“How did you know my name?”
“I handed you your diploma, did I not?”
His sapphire eyes focused on my hazel ones with such intensity that I had to look away.
“Yes, but you handed many people their diplomas that day. You couldn’t possibly remember my name.”
He chuckled. “You underestimate my memory. Your name is Ryleigh Stewart, is it not?”
“Yes, but….”
He held his hand up to stop me. “I always remember faces, especially one as pretty as yours.”
I could feel my heart pounding as he continued to speak. Why would this man remember someone like me? After graduation, I went on my laptop to search for images of Oliver Fox. I found him in several with gorgeous women in his arms, much prettier than me.
“Thank you for the compliment.”
“It’s well deserved.”
Thankfully, the elevator dinged onto the main floor, the doors opened, and Oliver gestured me out when I didn’t move. I moved and felt his hand on my back as we exited. He removed it and said goodbye to me. I stood there like a statue, watching him walk away. It was then that I realized I was aroused. My nipples were straining against my red lace bra, and down below, my panties were damp.
Jesus Christ, he was turning me on just by his very presence. I wondered what would happen if we spent time alone or he touched my bare flesh. Would I explode into flame? I fanned myself as I walked toward the glass doors of the building.
At the end of the day, I met Sadie on the sidewalk. We walked to the subway together.
“Guess who I met today?” I asked.
“Who? You’re lucky to be working in PR. I bet you’ll meet some celebrities.”
“Oliver Fox.”
Her eyes widened. “That gorgeous guy who spoke at our graduation?”
“Yes. Fox Asset Corporation is in my building. Can you believe that? He remembered me from graduation,” I said excitedly.
“What did he say?”
“He called me Miss Stewart and then said my entire name. Why would he remember me at all?”
“You’re hot,” she said.
A man in front of us turned around and smiled at me. I frowned as if to tell him to mind his own business.
“See,” Sadie whispered.
“Shut up. Let’s get home. I need a shower.”
We moved toward the subway station, hoping the air conditioning was working in the car. I was sweating by the time we got off the train. Even though the A/C was blowing at full force, the amount of people in the car made it feel warm. I was glad we only had one more day to go before the weekend.
