Chapter 83: The Dragon
Present Day, Anna’s Office
Anna’s rouge lips streched into her best seductive smile,
"Mr. Fredricksen, welcome." she greeted, in feign cheerfulness.
Ivan Fredricksen made his way towards the platinum blond and he stretched his hand towards her, Anna accepted it and shook his hand firmly.
Ivan looked down at the woman,
"How are you faring Anna?" he asked, although the expression on his face showed he didn’t really give a damn. He just wanted to get the synthetic pleasantries over with, something Anna appreciated. This was ’business meeting’ afterall.
"Well enough, Ivan. To business then?" the platinum blond proposed, gesturing for Ivan to take a seat in her office lounge.
"Thank you." The blonde replied while Anna sat directly across from him. She offered him refreshments which he declined, saying he wasn’t planning on staying long.
Anna scanned the man’s face, he had a nice set of gray eyes. His chiseled jaw was cleanly shaven, and the way his face was shaped reminded Anna of Sam. They resembled each other closely, yet the shade of their eyes and mane was completely different.
Sam had a calming manner to her, she was neither intimidating nor threatening. However, the platinum blond knew that if the redhead was placed on the spot. She was capable of wreaking havoc like her older sibling.
On the other hand, Ivan was different. He had an edge to him, even in the way he spoke. The danger in him, Anna found slightly alluring. If only she wasn’t married, but then again she’d only make a fool of herself if she even attempts to play her tricks on him. He was too smart of a man to fall to her tricks.
Sam and Ivan really must have grown up separately, Anna thought, as she watched his actions and mannerism. Identifying them to be very posh. Even the way he balled his hand in a relaxed manner made her feel like choking.
