Days went by and Isadora was getting used to her job, although Suzy was a pain in her neck, but she chose to ignore her and focus on her job, sometimes she wondered why the boss refused to speak to her whenever they came across each other. In other words, John was always trying to get her attention, but she always had an excuse to push him away. Ericka came to the company and walked to the secretary's desk, she was about to ask about Liam when she saw him coming out from the conference hall with some of his clients as he saw them off. "Baby!" she called romantically making everyone turn in her direction including Isadora who just came out of the restroom after washing it. Liam was surprised to see her and she rushed to his arms. "That voice sounds familiar". Isadora thought. "I miss you".She said and Liam was trying to push her off. "What are you doing? Let go".Liam said and Isadora suddenly recognized the voice, the bucket she was holding fell off making the water
Liam was working on the mail of the day when someone knocked and entered. "Hey, bro". Kevin said as he walked up to him and they shook hands before he sat down with the lunch paper bag he was holding. "Hmm, something smells nice in there, is that for me?".Liam said and Kevin scoffed. "Hell no!". He said. "Who?". "You know who".He smirked and Liam scoffed. "Did you come here to see me or Isadora?". "Of course, you know the answer to that, so, where is she?...oh, not to worry, let me call her".He smiled and brought out his phone to call Isadora. Liam rolled his head at him and continued piling up his work. ๐"Hey, pretty, how are you doing today?". ๐"Am fine and you?". Isadora asked from the other end. ๐"Am good, where are you right now?". ๐"Am at work". ๐"I know, I am in your company right now, where are you?". ๐"Oh, you are here?". ๐"Yep, I have something for you". ๐"Oh, ok, am at the rooftop". ๐"Rooftop?".He asked surprise
Liam was in his room discussing the issue that happened in the office with Kevin and Andrew who was on the phone. "It just happened".Liam said trying to explain to them. "What if she was the only one in the elevator". Kevin said. ๐"You should get the elevator fixed bro!".Andrew said on the phone. "Why are you all making me feel this is my fault".Liam said. "It's your fault bro! And it's your company". Kevin said ๐"He is right, what if Isadora was the only one stuck in that elevator". Andrew said and Liam groaned frustratedly. "If I can remember, we were two who got stuck in the elevator, it only just lasted for a few minutes".He said. "That's not an excuse! She is a woman and she can easily be traumatized". Kevin said. "Kevin, I am your best friend, and you, Andrew, I am your only brother, why not sympathize with me too". "You don't need any sympathy, you are a man". Kevin said. ๐"Meaning he is right, you should call Isadora and ask how she is
Liam entered his office to see Ericka seated on his sofa operating her phone, immediately she caught sight of him, and she rushed to hug him. "Baby! You are here".She kissed his cheek and Liam wiggled out of her arms and left for his seat. "What are you doing here? You didn't tell me you were coming?". "I wanted to surprise you".She said smiling. "Ericka, you know this is my working hour". "I know baby, is just that I miss you".She said and Liam sighed tiredly. "You know what Ericka, I think we should give it a break".He said and Ericka was confused. About some minutes later, she was crying in her friend's arms. "Liam break up with me".She sobs and her friends are confused. "Break up with you? Why? What did you do?". Kiara asked. "Why did he break up with you?".Tori asked. "I didn't do anything".She sniffs. "I went to pay him a surprise visit in his office, and he got angry and said we should take a break".She whines. "Break? But that does
The next day, Isadora was summoned to Stella's office including Suzy and she wondered what was going on. "Is everything ok ma?". Isadora asked and Suzy hissed at her. "Everything is not ok, you thief".She said and Isadora was confused. "Calm down Suzy, you can't accuse her without proper evidence". Stella said. "What is going on ma? What is she talking about?". Isadora asked confusedly. "Isadora, tell me the truth, did you find Suzy's bag?". "Yes, ma, I found it in the restroom and took it to the staff quarter and I was told the bag belongs to her".She explained. "But right now she said some of her money is missing from the bag". "I don't have any idea about that". "Stop lying! You stole my money". Suzy yelled. "No, I did not! I swear I didn't take your money". "That's enough you two!". Stella yelled and they became quiet. "The other cleaner told me she saw you taking the money from her bag".She said and Isadora was surprised. "I didn't take h
A week passed by, a new cleaner was hired and Isadora was assigned to teach her how to go about the cleaning process which she did. Liam came to the canteen to see the staff having their lunch, he looked around and couldn't find Isadora. He thought for a while and walked away, he came to the rooftop to see her dozing off on the place she was sitting while holding a book. Liam stared at her for a while and they moved to sit next to her, he took the book she was reading and saw it was a doctor's course book. "WHEN BREATH BECOMES AIR. By Paul Kalanithi ".He smiled after reading the title of the book. "Not bad".He opened the book and started reading, Isadora dozed off on his shoulder. Some moment later, she woke up and noticed she was resting her head on someone's shoulder, she smelled the familiar fragrance and jerked up quickly staring at Liam. "Um".She sputtered nervously. "You are awake".He places the book on the seat. "Um, am sorry". She said avoiding his gaze. "
Kevin and Isadora arrive at a eatery and they order two cups of ice cream. They sat down facing each other. "Do you like it here?". Kevin asked. "Yeah, it feels familiar, and the ice cream too, you have brought me here before?".She asked and Kevin nodded. "Yes, You are quite sensitive". "I know right".They chuckled."You said you have something to tell me". "Yeah, I will be going back to the State".He said and Isadora was surprised. "What? Why?". "I have some unfinished business I have to do".He said and Isadora became sad. "Why soon? is barely six months since you came and now you are going back". "I just came here to spend some time with Liam and his family, I wasn't planning on staying fully". "But I thought you..".She sighed sadly and lost her appetite. "Come on, am not going to spend much time in the state".He said. "What do you mean?". "Am going to settle some crises in my Dad's company". "What? Is your dad's company having some

"Finally, you guys are here".He said and they smiled at him. "There was a little traffic". Kevin said as they went inside. Anastasia rushed to welcome Isadora and Emily. "How have you been, Isadora?".She asked. "Never been better".She said. "That smells nice". Emily said and they all moved to the dining table. "Where is Liam?". Anastasia asked.

Mrs.Elena came to Andrew's house to pay him and his wife a visit and also to seek their help for Liam to release the girls. "Andrew, please talk to him, is already two days and those girls are still in police custody".She said. "That's because they are paying for what they did". Andrew said. "They have learned their lesson already, he has refused to let them out". "Mom, Ericka went too far, she did absolutely wrong". Anastasia said. "I know what she and her friends did was wrong, he should free them". "Let Liam handle it, Mom".Andrew said and his mother sighed tiredly. Meanwhile, Ericka and her friends were regretting what they did as her mother came to see them. "Mom, please get us out of here, I can't spend another day here, it's torture". Ericka said. "Am trying, Liam won't listen to me, I even went to his office to plead with him, but he ignored me".She said and the girls sighed tiredly. "We are doomed!

"Come on Liam, you know you are still recovering and it's past 7 pm, you need to rest".She said. "Am not complaining, I will be back soon".He walked away and Ericka sighed frustratedly. Meanwhile, Isadora was waiting impatiently for Liam wondering why he was taking so long. "Why is he taking so long? The movie is about to start".She said. She waited for another one hour and everyone who came to watch the movie was already inside and she was left alone. She became tired and decided to go alone, she turned to leave when Liam called out to her. "Isadora?".He called from behind and she turned to him and a smile curved her face. He moved to her. "Am sorry I took so long, my cab man
The next day, Liam was discharged and brought home, Ericka helped him to his room and made him laid down on the bed. "Do you need anything?".She asked.

" I miss you and I am sorry if I did something wrong to you".She said. "You did nothing wrong, I just don't want us to continue with this relationship anymore". "But I love you, I promise to do anything, just give us a second chance".She said and Liam sighed...... Ericka's friends stopped by her house to see her, they were in her room.
