Genius Girl

Chapter 55 - 55: Death Wish

Daniella stared at his jaw, up to his cheeks and to his eyes, they were grey, irises so round like the full moon.

And slowly, those irises moved to look at her and she immediately inclined her head to the side – avoiding his eyes.

The door opened, the employee got off and the man with the perfect jawline entered the elevator.

Daniella was about to move her feet and walk inside but the man pushed her away, causing her body to fall to the ground.

As the door was about to close, Daniella heard him murmuring, "tsk. Disgusting pervert," with insult, eyes looking at her with disgust.

Daniella didn\'t bother to get up, instead, she yelled, "go to hell, impotent man," she doesn\'t know why she said that but, all she could see in the seconds she looked into his eyes was a woman trying to please him inside of which seems to be a car.

Suddenly, the man stopped the door from closing with a hand, he took a step closer but, stayed inside the elevator.

"You have a death wish?" he said in a threatening voice, hands on the elevator balled into fists.

Daniella got up; she was about to reply when she noticed Evan coming out of the elevator next to her.

With panic, she ran and went straight to the fire exit.

Ken smirked with victory, seeing the man running away like a mouse after threatening him.

"Ken, you are late." Ken turned to look from the fire exit door to his friend Glen and Evan next to him.

He shrugged, "I am here now, what\'s the problem?"

Evan rose an eyebrow, shook his head and lead the way.

On the other side, Daniella was fuming like an angry lion, "That freaking man, just who does he think he is?" every step was full of anger, if she had the power of hulk, the building would have been destroyed.

"How can he possibly think that I am a disgusting pervert. Aish! If Evan didn\'t appear, I am going to send that man in the black-pit," she\'s talking to herself like a person escaped from the mental, still fuming with what happened.

Her feet frost, eyes looked down to her clothes, "Oh, yeah, I am wearing man\'s clothes," she nodded, suddenly realized why the man called her disgusting.

"Well, understandable," she stated and decided to take the elevator.

Daniella found Matthew at Kirby\'s office next to Evans\', the man was laying on the couch like it was his house.

There was no one around aside Matthew, it was lunch so everyone was outside or in the cafeteria.

She walked tiptoed and discreetly approached him, the man had his eyes closed so she was free to walk around like a ghost.

When she finally reached him, she stood next to the couch, bent her body and moved her face closer to him.

She waited and waited for him to wake up but, Matthew was sleeping like a log.

Nose wrinkling with impatience, Daniella lifted both hands and each lay on Matthew\'s eyes and opened them vigorously.

The man woke up, and soon, his scream filled the whole room.

Daniella laughed, walking backward and watched Matthew with his face paling with fright.

"You! How did you find me?" Matthew asked with a broken voice, he got up and walked backward until his back hit the wall.

Daniella stayed laughing, hands on her stomach as she tried to decrease her laugh but, as soon as her eyes laid on Matthew\'s pale face, she could not help but to laugh even more.

Hearing the familiar laugh, Matthew\'s expression shifted. Eyes narrowed as he scanned the man in front.

"Ella?" he asked, a bit skeptical.

Daniella nodded, wiped her tears and sat on the couch.

Matthew\'s body shaking rushed to Daniella\'s side, as soon as he sat down, he wrapped his arm around her neck and pinned her to his lap, one hand tugging her ear, "You witch! I almost die!" he barked at her.

Daniella groaned with pain; she might have overdone the prank but, she didn\'t expect that it would cost so much fear to Matthew.

"I am sorry," she apologized trying to find a way to free herself from him.

Matthew let her go, eyes sneakily narrowed as he tried to find a way to get back to her.

"Tell me what work do you want me to do? Do I need to read and sign papers?" she asked.

Matthew shook his head, lips gradually move to form a grin, "My cousin asked me to clean the toilet, since you are in a man\'s clothing, you will have to clean the men\'s bathroom with me," he got up, excitement shone in his eyes.

He was not planning to clean the toilet, even though his cousin asked him too but now that Daniella is with him, he suddenly got the energy to do it.

"I don\'t want," Daniella protested.

"You don\'t have a choice, I have your pictures, you scared the hell out of me, and let me just remind you that you still haven\'t returned my rice cooker."

Daniella\'s jaw dropped with disbelief, she thought she had explained to him the rice cooker issue but clearly, the man still hasn\'t moved on.

"You\'re a rice cooker, Matthew,"

"And you are a mushroom," Matthew fought back.

With no other option left, Daniella got up and decided to clean the bathroom with him.
