But then changed her mind to hear the rubbish he has to spew.

She picked the call, “Hello,” she forced the word out of her mouth, coming out unfriendly.

“You never told me Callan was the man.” A solemn voice dimmed from the phone, the sound tipping Lisa off a small edge.

Seems like their separation is taking a toll on Kurt already, but then her mind referred back to his statement. She never told him Callan was the man.

Who is Callan? What does it have to do with their situation? What about him is he talking about?

“What are you talking about?” She quested for illumination, her brows knitting in confusion.

“Don’t play dumb, Lisa. I know everything now, your secret affair with Callan Myers, I know even he’s the owner of your child. I just don’t get the reason why you never told me and rather allow me fall in love with yo

He scoffed, not totally convinced. “Okay.” He pulled back his arm, letting her come in. “Just know, if this another scheme from you and your husband to destroy my already destroyed life. I’m not gonna let this go and will simply kill the both of you.” He sentenced his threat with seriousness, slamming his door close as he followed Lisa from behind, leading the both of them to his living room. “That is far off the reason why I’m here, and you should wait for some days.

He looked up to her face, eyes capturing her glaring gaze as he stood up from where he sat, taking a step closer to her before Lisa raised up her index warningly. “Don’t you dare come any closer!” She cautioned, danger warming through her eyes. “And let me better assume you brought the divorce papers yourself, hand it over and see yourself out.” She addressed in a arid tone, her pointed finger pointing at the door to reference the last part of her statement.

He remained on the spot, lips parted, trying to convince himself that there’s still hope for him and her. He shouldn’t have lashed out on her said brother, he just couldn’t help it. At this point, he was a mess, a spiraling mess. All he wanted was just his wife, to be back in his arms, on his bed, sleeping with him, massaging his shoulders while he works from home. “I literally was going to help you with her, but my face went against with that decision.” Leo said as he struggled with getting up on his feet, groans falling out his mouth as he managed to move up fully. Kurt glanced at him, the look of regret still lingering over his expression. Perhaps he should have been patient, but if he hadn’t resort to violence.

Her eyes paled reading the text, it was from an anonymous sender, making yet another threat. “What are their names again? Steve and Joanna. Stay away from Kurt or they die!” She exhaled audibly, glancing around at the unease settling in her system as she dropped her phone. This was becoming more than she can handle, and there is no one she could reach out to for help. She’d lost appetite for her lunch, putting it all aside with the half emptied juice. Her phone buzzed where she tossed it, ringing up in the silence. Lisa heaved a groan before picking it up, the caller contact screening Jules. “Tell me you’re getting ready or that you haven’t changed your mind?” Her gleeful voice sounded on the phone. Tugging on Lisa’s emotions. She wanted the happiness, the excitement Jules was currently feeling. Her feelings are shacked into a void filled with darkness and dept

Like I’m very sure you know you being my boss doesn’t stretch over to my personal affairs?” She backed her point, taking an offensive stance against him. “He’s a danger to your safety, so I suggest you do by my order and indeed fire him. I wouldn’t be asking you to do this if it isn’t crucial, it’s crucial to your safety. I can’t share more than I already share, sack him and get him far away from you if you want to be safe. If you don’t do that, then you’re in danger. He is not who he said he is, a skilled bodyguard assigned to protect you I mean, he’s a formidable assassin posing as the protector when he is in fact the danger. You can go!” Instant he dropped his attention back to the system he was operating on, having no interest in a further conversation with Lisa about his demand.He purposely did that, to make sure he did the right thing.

You need to at least inform me days before I concur with such decision, then a resignation letter needs to be submitted for me to review and approve. Yes I said approve, because things here will be changing to exactly how I want it to be. Employees can now only quit by my approval, and that is after certain steps have been carried out.

She looked up at the man in front of her, flashing him a sweet smile. “I’m going to work and I wanted to let you know, but I chickened out as I wanted to knock.” She came up with a smooth explanation, retaining her smile. “It’s fine, just make sure to remain safe and away from trouble. Wyatt, your bodyguard told me what happened yesterday. I don’t want anything happening to you, so try to keep yourself safe in anyway you can. For instance, don’t go talk to strangers who are following you except the person is Wyatt.” He admonished, coating his words with both concern and care.
