Chapter 328: In His Bed

"Tadaima." Her voice was barely audible as she was bone-tired after working till wee hours in the lab but the voice recognition security of her apartment caught her voice and acknowledged her presence in the quiet apartment. 
She kicked her shoes in the foyer and walked to the living room, barefooted. She dropped her purse on the console table along the short hallway to the living room. She unbuttoned her blouse, threw it on the armrest of the couch, dropped her pants, and dove on the couch, face down. 
After a while she got up from the couch, groaning. She felt cold as she was only wearing her underwear. Her apartment air conditioner was on because Lucille likes cold temperatures. She had it set for the kid but now Lucille is already in Berlin but she forgot to reset her air conditioner. 
She sighed and slowly got up from the couch. She picked up her clothes that she had strewn on the living room floor. She wore them back and grabbed her purse on the way out of her apartment. She was drowsy as she entered the passcode that she now memorized by heart and despite her eyelid almost closing for she felt so sleepy, she forced herself to walk further inside the empty apartment. 
She headed to Noah's bedroom and crawled into his bed. Noah's familiar scent assaulted her tired body and she sighed with happiness. She requested Noah not to have his beddings changed. He didn't ask her why but did what she asked. Now, she holds Noah's pillow in her arms that snells exactly like him. She can pretend to be hugging Noah as she lets herself succumb to sleep. 
She didn't notice the blinking red dot of the CCTV on the ceiling, next to the light bulb. When she asked Noah not to change the bedsheet of his bed, Noah had an idea that Jess would crawl into his bed but he didn't expect that Jess would do it on the first night that he was away. 
As his heart was squeezing inside his chest, the urge to fly home and be with Jess was so strong that Antonio had to remind him over and over again that they had to finish the board meeting. It was of the utmost importance that the board meeting took place, so Jess could wait.
Noah just had to make do of watching Jess, sleeping soundly in her bed, hugging his pillow between her legs. 
The presenter was squirming in front as he watched Noah sigh every now and then, not listening to what he was saying because his eyes were glued to his phone.

Antonio gritted his teeth in frustration at how his boss has been acting. In the eyes of these men inside the conference room, Noah is a ruthless boss, unfazed and difficult to impress. They don't have an idea that the knit on Noah's eyebrows and the reason for his continuous sigh has nothing to do with the data being discussed but his want to go home and be with his girlfriend. Antonio had to keep a straight face and listened attentively to what was happening inside the room for he would be the one that would do everything later. He won't be surprised if Noah gets on the plane and flies back to LA the moment this conference is done. 
Sometimes, he wondered how Noah could still do his job with how much he checked on Miss Jess. 
Back home in Noah's apartment, Jess rolled to her side, carrying Noah's pillow with her, hugging it tightly. Noah, who was watching everything on the small screen of his phone, cursed the pillow. He will change the damn pillow once he gets home. 
The conference was taking too long. He put down his phone in front of him where he could see it. He wished to watch the video on his laptop but he doesn't want to share Miss Zimmerman with all these men inside the room. Thus, he had to settle on watching the video on his phone. 
He just put a mental note to pull the video recording so he could watch it again. He sighed and folded his hands on the table. He reluctantly pulled his gaze away from the screen of his phone and watched the man presenting the financial status of the company. He already knew the data being discussed in front. Truth to be told, he wasn't needed at this conference. 
The one reason why he's in the room was, all of the shareholders and their representatives were in the room and since he's aiming to be chosen as the next CEO of ANAT, he had to show his face to all of these shareholders. He also needed to see them so he could get a feel of who would vote for him or they would vote against him, and still choose his father. 
He doesn't want to be the CEO of the company but his grandfather wanted his father to step down from the CEO position because his ideas were old-fashioned. His grandfather, despite being old, wanted to catch up with new business trends, thus, he preferred him to have the CEO position over his father. 
At first, he was all into it but now, with Jess in the picture, he has been thinking if he should let his father have the CEO position while he still gets the COO position. The problem is his grandfather, the old sly Tiefenbacher would not stop in any way if he already decided on something. And the old sly Tiefenbacher wanted him to be the next CEO of ANAT, and he won't stop until he makes it happen. 
He glanced at his phone and saw that Jess was still in the same position, sleeping soundly. He sighed and a faint smile ghosted his lips. He should call and tease her later. He wanted badly to hear her voice.. He would have to be satisfied with just her voice, videos, and photos until he could be by her side again.
