"So, will you tell me where she is?" Eric asked, ignoring the man that was just dragged away.

"Sir, company protocol says that I cannot." The receptionist nervously said as she looked up at the handsome face in front of her.

Eric leaned forward and smiled, the receptionist was nervous now, she never expected to be this close to a man like Eric Chan. She wanted to faint, he was too close, was this how Miss Calathea felt whenever he flirted with her, the receptionist couldn't help but be jealous of their young miss.

"Please sir, take a step back." The receptionist said as she gathered her composure.

Eric smiled and raised his hands feigning innocence. As he took a step back his phone began to ring, he grinned as he took a look at the name, it was Calathea.

"Calathea." Eric said in a soothing voice as he picked up the call.

"Eric Chan what the hell are you doing?" Calathea said in a furious tone.

"I'm visiting you." Eric said. "You didn't tell me you were back in the country, why did I have to hear it from Mr. Reyes?"

"You never looked at my direction, why are you Regis Inc. now?" Calathea asked.

"Just a visit. I'll leave the flowers at the lobby for you." Eric said as he grinned. He didn't want to take those flowers home, he would never give Katerina flowers that were supposed to be for someone else.

Eric dropped the call and placed the flowers on the receptionists' table.

"These are for Calathea, make sure she gets them." Eric said as he turned and left. His step was much faster as he looked at his watch, five minutes.

He finally managed to make his way through the crowd of fans and into his car. He dialed the number for his bodyguard and asked him to clear the way. As his bodyguards were clearing a path for him he frantically dialed Katerina's number, but she didn't pick up.

Unfortunately for Eric, right as he was going to call her again Cedric called.

"Good job." Cedric said happily over the phone.

"Don't call me, I need to talk to Katerina, if she spots this rumor I'm not going to be allowed into her house!" Eric angrily said.

"Don't you want to know how it went?" Cedric asked with a laugh.

"Right now I don't care about the result, I'm more worried about my girlfriend's reaction." Eric said as he quickly dropped the call.

As he continued to try contacting Katerina a message came in, it was from Cedric.

'Haha, I'd be panicked too if I were you. Come to R Tower after changing cars.'

Eric groaned as the ringing suddenly stopped and the most angelic voice came through.

"What's with all the missed calls Eric?" Katerina asked, her tone sounded worried.

"Katerina have I ever told you how your voice is the most beautiful sound in the world?" Eric asked in a lovesick tone.

"What did you do that needs forgiveness?" Katerina said, clearly annoyed.

"Please avoid social media and all those gossip forums, and if Calathea calls you please ignore her." Eric said sweetly.

"Eric what are you going on about?" Katerina asked, she was clearly not amused with his game.

"I'll pick you up in your office. I just need to change cars, please wait for me darling." Eric said as he dropped the call and sped off from the driveway of Regis Inc.

In a law office across town Katerina was even more curious now about Eric's ramblings, so she decided to open social media.

The first article she found immediately hit her hard.

'Eric Chan and Calathea Carpio? Love Quarrel?' The accompanying image was a photo of Eric, walking out of his car with a bouquet of flowers looking more handsome than normal.

"What the hell?" Katerina said out loud as she looked at her phone and read through the comments section.

'Ha! You might be the president's daughter but Calathea Carpio is the one Eric Chan loves. Best to put biches like that in their place.' The most liked comment read, making Katerina feel sad.

'I wish my husband would do things like that. It's so romantic. Calathea Carpio is the luckiest woman alive.' Another user commented.historical

'Wow, Eric Chan is going after the most powerful women, first it's the president's daughter and now the daughter of one of the richest companies in the country!' Another comment read.

'Whatever happened to his denial? Why is he chasing after Calathea now? I'm happy for Miss Calathea, don't give him an easy time. Make him work for it.'

'They are such a beautiful couple, I wouldn't mind my husband picking a woman like her.'

'Nothing happened between him and the President's daughter anyway, I bet she just wanted to date a handsome guy.'

'Elegant! Calathea Carpio is perfect for our Eric Chan.'

Katerina couldn't read anymore, she was always a strong woman, except when it came to Eric. He was her Kryptonite, the smallest rumors about him with any woman hurt her, the thought of losing him would drive her crazy.

"Miss Katerina?" Her assistant asked as he entered the room with some documents. He was shocked to see his boss in such a sad state, he even thought he saw her crying.

"Please cancel all my meetings for the rest of the day." Katerina said as she quickly composed herself.

The comments online and the article might have hurt her, but she promised Eric that she would never jump into conclusions. She knew how well the media and the internet could manipulate the truth and the only person she would believe was Eric. If he said he would pick her up then it must be a misunderstanding. She believed that Eric would never cheat on her, he was probably coming over to explain things.

As she thought that an painful idea crossed her mind, what if Eric was coming over to tell her that he no longer loved her? What if the scene at Regis Inc. wasn't an act for Cedric's plan, what if Eric had gone over of his own free will and wanted Calathea over her?
