Lucy's POV

My life has been hectic ever since Andrew suddenly showed up, he just had to wait for me to be doing better to come so he can ruin it.

Thank goodness I met Desmond.

If not I would have thought that all men were just rude and controlling.

Till today I haven't forgotten that bad date I had with Travis,that made him think we were now dating, that guy is insane.

I know I shouldn't be thinking like this, but I can't help but always compare Andrew and Desmond, there's no way I will be going back to Andrew even though I was a bit reluctant to cut all contact with him.

Andrew hurt me deeply, but I still felt sorry for him and I was angry at the way things turned out.

I really hoped things would have gone a different way, I hoped that we could have continued to date in peace but that couldn't happen because of Tory, his best friend and affair partner.

Desmond came back from work today and he was acting a bit weird and distant, I instantly knew that something was wrong.

    Lucy's POVDesmond has been so kind to me ,that I don't even know how to repay him. I could only wish him well and take care of his son as best as I could.I found myself sitting in the living room at night, I think it was about nine pm and the kids were already in bed , but Mr Desmond was not home yet.I wonder if something happened to him?I have never seen him go out on weekends, because he always rests at home, unless his son says let's go out and eat.I was surprised when he invited me to go out with him as normal friends but I refused. I don't want to be put in the position where someone would ask about my relationship with Desmond and I won't know what to say.We have a good relationship, but I don't know what to call it.Are we friends or is he just my Boss or is there something else going on between us?It was confusing.Desmond went to drink with friends, friends I thought he didn't have, that's why I was more worried about going out with him, since I have never met any of h

    Lucy's povIt's been two days ever since the kiss with Desmond.For those two days I haven't seen Desmond even once. It felt as if he leaves for work very early in the morning and comes back very late at night so that he won't see each other.It was just a hunch I had as to why I haven't been seeing him, but he might also be busy that's why I haven't been able to see him, so I don't know what to think.I just went about my normal day as if nothing had happened.Nowadays when Andrew sends a text message to me, he asks about his son Danny.It's as if you just shifted his attention for me to Danny because he knew that Danny is where my heart is.I don't know how many times I have told Andrew to leave you alone and stop mentioning my son's name, but he doesn't seem to listen.He has money to spend on unnecessary things, that's why if I block one number, he gets another phone number to call me or send me a text message.It felt as if all I had said to him and all the insults fell on deaf

    Lucy's POVI turned to look at Desmond."Why do you think that it's for the best to avoid me?" I asked him curiously as I watched him."Lucy, I can't give you what you want." He told me."What do you actually think that I want from you?" I asked him and he sighed."I don't know what you want from me, but what I do know is that the kiss was a grave mistake, one that shouldn't happen again." He told me in a low voice."Desmond I know that you are my Boss but I honestly felt an attraction..." I tried to say but was interrupted by him."You are mistaken ,I feel nothing for you." He cut off my words and I scoffed.Desmond doesn't want me saying anything about him having feelings for me, when it was clear that we were both attracted to each other.I can't go back to Andrew, because even though we had good memories,he was the one that hurt me most."Do you actually expect me to believe such a lie?" I asked him in disbelief.Desmond smacked his lips as pinched the bridge of his nose, he was h

I was even pitying him and wondering how I would be able to set up a meeting with him and Danny in the future, now he goes and does this.I calle

Desmond told me and I chuckled."He actually succeeded in scaring me, if not for the lawyer you helped me hire, maybe I wouldn't have won the case." I sighed."It's fine, it's the least I can do." Desmond told me."So I wanted to thank you. Should I prepare you dinner?" I asked him and he sighed and smacked his lips."I don't know if I should accept that." He replied."But Daddy, I want Miss Lucy to cook for us." Joseph argued and Desmond turned to see him behind him."Joseph, what have I told you about eavesdropping on people's conversations?" Desmond asked Joseph his son."I was just walking when daddy was talking to Miss Lucy , you can't blame me for overhearing it" Joseph said in his defense as he walked up to me and embraced me

I think he was upset that I walked into his room.I mentally slapped myself, my curiosity got the best of me.I just wanted to see what his room looked like.I forced a smile."Oh sir, I was looking for you, I thought you would be inside your room." I exclaimed and he snorted."You were looking for me and you just came upstairs and barged into my room unannounced?" He asked in a low voice and I chuckled nervously.Yeah, he was upset with me, he didn't blame me for what happened, he was the one that left his door wide open."Your room door was unlocked." I countered."Who gave you the right to walk into my room?" He asked me and my eyes danced around the room."I am sorry sir, I just wanted to talk to you about something important." I mumbled."Step out of my room." He told me as he walked out and I followed behind him and he slammed the door shut , after I walked out."Lucy, no matter what you have to say, you h

She announced and I looked at her as if she was crazy."What?" I asked her."I thought about it and we clearly don't know each other enough, so I decided to consider the divorce if you let me work in your company in a high position." She told me and I just stared at her as if she had grown an extra head.What could she possibly be scheming to make her want to come to my company?I know well enough that I did not want to see this woman anywhere in my company, so I can't accept it.But on second thought ,I could fire her if she did something bad."If I g

I told her.The longer I spent in her room the more annoyed I got."Well." She purred and I cringed."Vera, I think you should wear something that covers up before we can talk." I told her because I didn't want to see her dressed this way."Why?" She was surprised by my request."Because it makes me uncomfortable seeing you in that dress." I told her , while avoiding all eye contact with her ,but I could tell my words angered her.She shouldn't blame me for pushing her away because the last thing I wanted to do was make the mistake of touching her.

I told her."Thanks." She mumbled."Even though I saw her, I also had low contact with Mercy, your mom, but I think you should talk it out with her if you two have a disagreement. You know how she is, she doesn't have anyone to rely on but you." I reminded her."Why do you even care what happens to her? I thought you hated her?" She asked.I told her I didn't hate her mother, neither did I hate her, I just disliked how they treated me.Flora told me she just wanted to give her mum time, since she couldn't accept her marriage.I informed her that her mother was not looking too good when I saw her and getting back in contact with her now would be the best thing to do, or there might be consequences."Is my mom sick?"

I replied and I saw her fidgeting with her fingers."You know I really regret telling you to leave the house with Danny, I should have thought about it carefully before asking you to leave." She started and I listened attentively."Okay." I mumbled."I should have told my children to leave you alone and defend you so you can stay, I didn't mean to encourage their bad behavior towards you." She said sadly."Don't push all the blame on your children,I hope you haven't forgotten you also treated me badly?" I asked her and her shoulders dropped in defeat."I haven't forgotten."
