Cold Hearted Devil Fell In Love

Ivy got changed into her usual black ripped skinny jeans, an old band t-shirt and her leather jacket. She had worn her hair down, curly and loose. She kept her make minimal with just some red lipstick and black eyeliner. Reaching the door she put on her black heels and opened the door.

She was happy to see Thomas again. As she hadn't wanted to go out she hadn't seen him since the incident at Noah's company. She hugged her friend and bodyguard.

Thomas was taken back and stood there and let Ivy hug him, but he did not dare touch her back.

Ivy released him and smiled.

"I missed you".

"Please don't say that out loud Ivy".

"Don't be scared he's not here".

Ivy and Thomas went into the car they chose the Bugatti Veyron. Thomas drives to the largest Mall in our City, Imperial Mall. We get out and head out to take a look. I had been really lazy and hadn't taken any jobs after the incident at Noah's company so I only had a bit left from the last job.

I went to get Noah's gift first as the man never owned anything that wasn't a designer brand. Going into the first shop I was looking around. I noticed a girl came to approach me. I was about to ask her where the accessories are but then she walked around me and stood in front of Thomas.

"Sir how may I help you today".

"You can help my boss please". Thomas said and pointed his finger at Ivy and he can see she is taken back and she gives her a casual look up and down.

"Sir is your boss outside?".

I roll my eyes at the sales assistant, she doesn't want to earn any commission, does she? Still stood beside Thomas practically leaning her chest against him Ivy walks away. Ivy thought that the sales staff where probably right she looked like she couldn't afford to shop here whereas Thomas fitted in perfectly.

Ivy took a look round and found the accessories. There where hats, scarfs, gloves, cuff links, tie pins and ties. Finally, a petite girl with red hair approached Ivy.

"Miss can I help you, my name is Sylvia".

"Yes please, I like the tie and tie pin".

"No problem miss, this is from our bespoke limited-edition line. This is the only one of its kind".

"Great, please rap it for me".

"Yes right away".

I had picked a black luxury woven silk tie and the tie pin was titanium with a black diamond in the middle. Sylvia was wrapping it up when the girl from earlier arrived.

"I'll complete the sale". She pushed Sylvia out of the way. Ivy had seen enough.

"Thomas".

"Yes Ivy".

"What time will Noah be home".

"Mr Adler is meeting you here in forty minutes Ivy".

Ivy turned to the rude sales assistant. Smiling at her, if she didn't take my warning I wouldn't help her.

"In future do not judge a person on what they wear or what they look like. You could be offending the big bosses future wife. Now I liked Sylvia's attitude better so if you could leave us too it, that would be appreciated".

The rude sales assistant stood there in shock and another girl helped her walk away.

"There's no way she and...she and".

That's all I heard before Sylvia came back. There are judgemental people everywhere.

"I'm sorry miss".

"Its ok Sylvia, your quiet lovely I shall be back and when I do I hope you serve me".

"My pleasure miss".

I had made a mental note then to come back just to help Sylvia get the recognition and commission she deserves. I would buy Noah a few suits then after my next paycheck.

Leaving the store I went to the household department next. I picked out a new set of knives for piercing and a few candles for our house. Ivy then looked at the candles, since when did she think of it as her house too. Shaking her head she went to the checkout desk and bought her items. Thomas came forward and carried her bags.

"I'm not that delicate".

"But still it's heavy".

Shrugging her shoulder she let Thomas do as he wished. They continued to search for gifts. Ivy bought her dad a pair of shoes. Ivy also bought Aiden and Thomas a pair of leather gloves. Thinking of Jamie and what to get him, asked Thomas for his phone and called him.

"Jamie".

"Hey Ivy".

"What's up?".

"We meeting for Christmas drinks".

"Yes, but I'm on a story now and I'll not rest till I know".

"Oh, spill".

Jamie was a reporter who did hard news and celebrity gossip, whatever news was interesting and hard to get he always got it.

"You heard of CEO Adler?...Well apparently the world's most eligible bachelor is now dating some cute girl. So I'm trying to dig for news".

"Em.... Good luck. I'll see you later in the week then".

"Yep bye Ivy".

Ivy shook her head. She couldn't let her relationship be known. It would be ok if Noah was just a businessman, but he was also king of the underworld and had many enemies so she would have to keep a low profile if she wanted a peaceful life.

Ivy passed many shops and found a camera shop. She took a detour in and quickly found a new camera sensorrJamie's favourite camera. Getting it wrapped up she was happy with today's purchases. Thomas leaned in and took her bag and whispered in her ear.

"Ivy boss is waiting at the next shop".

"Ok, Thomas lead the way".
