LOCKED IN WITH THE BILLIONAIRE Sharing an office with the devil
Abigail's POV***Standing in front of the mirror, I stared at the image reflected back at me.The red lipstick I wore perfectly complemented my knee-length gown, which I had chosen earlier in the morning after Audrey left for school on the bus.It was time for me to head to work, which is why I opted for this simple yet elegant dress. Luckily, it wasn't showing too much, and I stole a quick glance at the small slit positioned just above my knee.Five minutes had passed since I ordered for a ride online and I was expecting the driver to get here soon.A sharp honking sound pierced through the air, signaling his arrival.There wasn't much to take so I grabbed my purse and I was ready to go.After twenty minutes, I arrived at the company, offering greetings to everyone I encountered on my way in."What lovely people," I thought to myself as they greeted me back with a warm smile.I checked my watch and saw it was already 7:50 in the morning, realizing I was twenty minutes behind schedu

Third POV***Henry huddled over his phone, his fingers curled protectively around it. He spoke in hushed tones, keeping the device close to his ear.Nodding curtly, his voice hoarse as he muttered "Okay" before hanging up the call and slipping the phone into his pocket in one smooth motion.With a flick of his wrist, he pulled a badge from his pocket and held it up to the scanner. The door made a beeping sound, and its door slid open, granting him access to the exclusive office.Henry strode into the room with long strides, only pausing for a moment when he caught sight of Abigail, hunched over her desk and buried in her work.Abigail was so engrossed in her work that she seemed completely oblivious to the world around her, unaware that Henry had entered the room.Henry watched her for a while, he had personally instructed the manager to arrange her desk in his office.He gave a stupid excuse but in his heart, he knew that he wanted to punish her, the more she tried to run from him,

Third POV***After spending hours in the bathroom, Henry finally came out, his face appearing a bit paler than usual.Now Abigail was done with the drawings, she hadn't even noticed that he was in the bathroom and only saw him walking towards his table.She couldn't help herself from wondering why his face was pale, maybe he was hungry, she thought innocently.When she glanced at the time on the wall, it was already a quarter past two.Abigail's stomach growled, signaling her that she was hungry. She knew she had to eat something, and soon, or she would be driven to madness by the constant ache in her belly.Abigail gathered up the papers on the desk and held them out to Henry. He took them with a nod and gestured for her to set them down on the table. She did so, placing them carefully on the surface.Her stomach growled louder and this time it did not escape Henry's ears.Henry picked up the phone, punching in the number of his favorite Italian restaurant. He ordered three plates o

Abigail's POV***"Goodnight Joyce" I bid her goodbye and held Audrey in my hand tightly, to prevent him from wandering off."Mommy, is this our new car?" Audrey's voice filled with excitement as he questioned, and I shook my head subtly, my movements conveying a silent - NO. He looked disappointed and a pout formed on his lips."Go in baby," I said to Audrey, opening the back door of the car. He obediently hopped in, and I closed the door before getting into the front seat."Is there a problem Sir?"Henry, my boss, was staring at my son with a peculiar look on his face, and I couldn't help but feel uneasy. Was he judging my parenting skills? "Daddy Daddy, you finally came for me." Audrey's eyes lit up as he caught sight of Henry, his face beamed with joy. He sprinted forward and threw his arms around my boss, clinging to him tightly. "Daddy?" I thought, understanding why he must have been confused. If I was a stranger, I would have also thought the same.Henry's eyes widened in s

Third POV***The morning light streamed through the window, landing directly on Henry's eyes. He squinted, trying to block out the bright rays as he blinked and attempted to wake up. He had slept on the sofa at night and surprisingly this was one of the best nights he had ever had in ages."Daddy, you are awake."Henry's eyes shot open, only to be greeted by the sight of a small, round face hovering above him. Startled, he sat up, wondering how a child had gotten so close to him without his knowledge. As he took in the child's features, he realized that he recognized the little face - it was Audrey, his son.Everything that happened was not a dream, it was indeed real. He really had a son that wasn't a product of his imagination.As Henry saw Audrey's face, a wide grin spread across his face and he sat up from the sofa."It's not a dream," Henry murmured, the words feeling strange and unfamiliar as he spoke them aloud. He reached out and touched Audrey's shoulder, needing physical c

Third POV***"It's all my fault," Henry said, his voice filled with remorse. "I hope you can forgive me, and that you'll find it in your heart to understand." He stood up from the couch and walked towards the dining room.A few minutes later, Henry and Audrey came out from the dining room. He moved towards the front door, Audrey trailing closely behind him.Placing his hands on the doorknob, he turned back and said, "You should take a day off, I will take him to school by myself."Abigail let out a long sigh as she watched Henry and Audrey leave in a red Rolls Royce Boat Tail.Thirty minutes had passed since he dropped Audrey off in school.Stepping out of his car, Henry was met by the maids who greeted him with a bow. They stood straight, their hands folded neatly in front of them.No one dared to disrespect the young master, they all held their breath upon his arrival.Henry didn't even acknowledge the maids' greetings, his gaze focused on the front door. As he got to the entrance,

Third POV***"Pick him up and bring him straight to me. Hurry up!" Henry's voice was cold and dismissive, he ended the call and turned to look at the letter that was neatly placed on his table.He knew the letter could only be from one person - his Grandfather, who was fond of sending letters instead of texts. He picked up the letter and ran a hand over the crisp, thick paper, the familiar handwriting visible through the envelope.Henry's eyes traced over the letter, scanning the neat cursive handwriting. His gaze lingered on each word, taking in the message. As he read, his brow furrowed, and his lips pressed into a tight line. "The granddaughter of my best friend, Aaron, will be waiting at Emperor five five-star restaurant, I have set a romantic lunch for you both. I will be expecting you there by 5 pm."Henry scoffed, re-reading the letter. The same old message, just like all the other letters he'd received from his grandfather over the years. when will Grandfather ever get ti

Abigail's POV***"oh where's my Audrey, it's time for dinner and he's nowhere to be found. " I said, worry evident in my tone.My anticipation turned into frustration as I waited for a response, only to be met with the same automatic voicemail that I had heard countless times.With a frustrated sigh, I let out a loud hiss. For hours now, I had been calling the office line over and over again, but I just kept getting sent to voicemail. It was getting more and more frustrating as each call went unanswered. My pulse quickened and I could hear the sound of my heartbeat. Even my palms felt wet and cold, as I gripped the phone tighter."Where could they be?" I thought as I bit my fingernails anxiously.It was already 7 pm, and I still hadn't received a single text or message from him. Not even the office line had responded to my calls. To make matters worse, I only had the office telephone and I even called Elena, to ask if she had seen him in his office but she said Henry didn't come to

"He is dead?" I asked in a whisper even though I knew the answer. Henry pulled me closer and placed a kiss on my forehead. I saw them wrap Ethan up into a black big plastic bag and I confirmed it to be true. What other evidence do I need? Ethan was dead and I would never see him anymore. He died because he was trying to save me, how can I ever forget that? I sniffed back my tears and stared at the street filled with reporters. "Henry Brundeen!" Grandfather Brundeen called with a snort and my gaze traveled to look at him. The rest of the Brundeen family followed him, their eyes swollen.

What was making me feel that way? I had zero idea.My reflection in the mirror made me almost puke and I stared away. The dark circles under my eyes were so visible and it made me want to burst into another round of tears. Would Henry continue to love me?He must probably hate my new attitude.With a frown on my face, I walked out of the room and I was about to lay on the bed when a tall figure collided with my face, making me halt my step."Ouch" I pouted and touched my head, my eyes looking up to see Henry with a wide grin on his face.He was wearing a casual hoodie and a pair of joggers.

Don't expect me to spell it out" The director said casually, rolling his eyes as he saw Lisa make a fuss about it."If this is what you are planning to do then I'm not going to sit here and let you lay your filthy hands on me." Lisa's eyes were already crimson red.She found it disgusting to know that an ugly man like the director of the Han group was proposing to have a relationship with her.Lisa wasn't that desperate to beg for a role. She would rather walk out and never look back.Grabbing her purse from the table, she proceeded to leave but she felt a strong grip on her hand before she could take the next step.
