[katalina]I’ve never felt so alive. But not in a good way.I sat on my bed and swallowed a lump in my throat.I have no reports or updates to tell him.Fuck!But I have no choice but to answer this phone call.Heaving a sigh before I speak. “Sir,” it was the only word that I could spit out from my mouth.I braced myself for the upcoming rage that I could feel from my boss.“Any updates?”I fell silent.I lost ways of how to cover up my incompetency.In short, I ran out of white lies to cover my ass.Glancing at the ceiling, hoping a complete sentence would fall out.But that would be impossible.Instead of punishing myself for thinking of ways to lie, this time, I decided to speak for the truth.Even if it means that I’ll receive yells and insults from Jerry.Because somehow, I deserve it.And I needed also it.Because I know to myself that I’m lost in the track.I already forgot what matters most.

Jerry spoke. Which made me forget about the white Cadillac. But at the back of my head, I'm quite certain that my eyes were laid on it once. I just forget the exact location. "But this doesn't mean that you should not speed up, Katalina." Jerry made it clear. I nodded my head as if he could see me right now. "I understand, Sir. And I apologize if I'm a bit late." "What's your excuse this time?" He asked. I bit my lower lip. "Sir, there is no excuse," I responded. "The reason why I haven't started writing shit about him is that I couldn't find one. And you know too well that written articles are best when they are supported with evidence," I sighed. Honestly speaking, this is how I stand with every article I make. The credibility of the words and information goes back to the writer or the author itself. Because if I were to create false narratives, people would surely recognized it easily. Now that Hunter is loved, adored, and cherished by the public. Our odds of tarnishing

"Because I'm down for it," he added, followed by a wink. It made me laugh. "You're quite funny. But if your boss sees you sitting in front of me, wouldn't he or she yell at you? Either chances of getting fired?" Preston shrugged his shoulders. "Nah. Our boss is a busy guy too. In fact, he's kind. He treats his employee with respect. And tells us that we can rest so long as the customers are satisfied," he explained. I nodded my head. "Wow that's kind of impressive—" I stopped speaking when my stomach growled. My gazes met Preston's. He stood up. "I'll order something for you. I'll be right bac

Customers flooded right when he was about to leave. He asked if I could wait for a while. A few more minutes. I agreed and waited for Preston to finish his work. I was standing outside the restaurant. Watching Preston's broad shoulders while closing in on the restaurant. His rounded biceps are clear and shapely. Preston was wearing a white sleeveless undershirt and gray sweatpants. I observed his physical appearance. Until my eyes landed on his plump ass. My eyes widened in shock as Preston faced me. When he came forward, I stared at the middle part of his body. The bulge of his manhood. It was big. I was speechless. Preston cleared his throat like I was slapped with shame. When I looked at his face, he was grinning already. "You like it?" he offered. My eyes almost popped in shock at his question.

But my work is really different when Amanda is there. My work flow becomes easy and smooth. That type is what I should prioritize and then I can finish it easily because of her help. I did not make the mistake of hiring her as my personal assistant who has become my secretary. Her job description is a bit confusing to me, but Amanda plays her role well in both of them. I took a deep breath and briefly closed my eyes. The aura of the office is different when I'm alone. Very quiet. It wasn't like when Amanda was here that I was teasing her and she was easily annoyed. Her smell is very fragrant. I don't know what cologne she uses but Amanda's smell stings my nose in a good way. And her beautiful face that is so good to look at. I don't know if she notices every time I steal a glance at her. He
