2024-10-29 19:42:56Isabella’s POV
Carter is acting super weird, I mean he sometimes acts odd but this is just blatant weird. He left my apartment last night without so much as a goodbye and when I called him he didn’t pick or return my call. I just don’t understand men, what the hell is his problem? If something is on his mind why won’t he just talk to me about it instead of acting weird.
And he hasn’t been in his office all morning, I checked twice. His secretary is practically tired of seeing me and I suspect she knows about me and him.
My phone rings and I quickly grab it to see if he’s calling me back but it Alessia my best friend.
“Hey where are you? I’m downstairs.” She says immediately I answer her call.
“What? Downstairs where? I’m at work.” I say through the phone.
“Yeah I know, I’m at your office. Can you tell them to let me up, I need some bestie audience.” She rants through the phone.
“Yeah of course I’

I check the time to see it’s almost 11 pm and I was supposed to meet with Alessia hours ago, I already have angry messages from her. "I have to go." I say looking at my phone.

He hugged me. “You’re coming back though?” He asked. “It’s already late, see you tomorrow at work?” I ask. “I’m flying to Silicon Valley tomorrow.” He says nuzzling his nose on my hair. “When will you be back?” I asked pouting.

Carter’s POV I lay in the darkness, my gaze fixed sightlessly on the ceiling as Isabella lay nestled in the crook of my arm. I knew she was awake. She hadn’t yet settled into the soft breathing and limp body he associated with her rest. But she lay there quietly, curled into my side, almost as though she were processing everything that had occurred. I was a bastard. I knew it. Suffered some regret. When she told me the truth about herself I believed her or atleast I thought I did till I ran into her father in Silicon Valley few days ago. She had told me her father didn’t know she was working for me, another lie. But when I met he knew she was working for me, he insinuated she had taken the job as a little project before she finally goes back to working with him. Meaning she was spying on kings telecom as her little project. Her father though doesn’t know my relationship status with her giving me a leverage to whe

Isabella POV I’m in Carter’s office. I’m sitting on the sitting area away from his desk having lunch while Carter worked. The whole office has been buzzing with gossip about Carter and I, few people who were at his sisters fashion show saw us together so there has been speculations about our relationship. No one has directly asked me anything as of yet but I have been receiving glances all over the office all day. So I was glad when Carter asked me to have lunch with him in his office, technically he’s working and I’m eating. Carter’s intercom line buzzed, and he frowned at the interruption. He had told me he has a busy day working on some project, he didn’t really expand but he looked busy when I walked in and I heard him tell his secretary he didn’t want to be disturbed. “What,” he barked into the intercom. Ella’s nervous voice wavered over the line. “I know you said you weren’t to be disturbed,

And where is home?" George asks raising his eyebrows. "My apartment." I muttered suddenly on instantly on alert. George has voiced out his concern, clearly not approving of my non relationship with Isabella. I didn't want it to be a bone of contention between us. Before I could say anything, George continued.

Two meetings, plus countless other calls he had to return. So there was no crazy hot office sex to alleviate the burn, or any making up after our fight.
