Chapter 40: Looking heartbroken again

Lerisa could have turned back and fled from Anthony's office. However, she was stupefied by the realization that she was secretly in love with Anthony, but he didn't care to love her back.

She looked heartbroken, and Anthony, acting on impulse, immediately stood up from his office seat and walked out to meet her.

"Wait, Lerisa. What happened?" Anthony asked as he finally approached her by the door.

Benita walked out from behind Anthony's desk, picking up her black handbag. She walked up to meet Anthony and Lerisa, and then she said, "We'll see each other tomorrow. Bye, babe."

Lerisa turned to leave just as Benita shut the door, leaving her and Anthony alone. Benita knew that Lerisa also liked Anthony but wanted to test him to see if he would succumb to kissing her. She was happy he wanted to kiss her as much as she wanted to kiss him. However, she left the third floor, caring less about what Lerisa and Anthony were doing in his office, and went outside to her white car and drove home.
