Kiara's POVThe internal reminder that I had to explain exactly why I was returning so early from work to Bryant's fiance and his grandmother made my stomach twist into knots I'm sure that I would probably get slapped once or twice before I would even get a chance to explain myself and I trembled and crumpled to the floor of the elevator but when I realize that some people were about to step in I quickly straightened myself up standing up wiping my tears with the back of my hand and then even trying to put on a small friendly smile as they all came ushering in I couldn't just fall apart in public like that.I think almost over there myself because nobody would have even guessed that I was going through all of this mess during the elevator ride my mind was filling me with different ideas of what could happen to me when I went back to that place I had already given up on the job and I was planning to tell them that maybe there was a way I could spend time with him as I did before instea
Kiara povI stood in front of the door waiting for my courage to push me towards the handle and when I saw that it wasn't happening anytime soon I decided to do it anyway, even though my hands were shaking as if it was about to fall off from the rest of my body disconnecting like a limb.Just as I was about to place my hand on the handle somebody pulled me away and when I looked behind me it was actually Becky. Was it that this company has become so small that I was running into every single person or was it just my imagination.It only took me a couple of seconds to realize that it couldn't have been my imagination because the way she held onto my wrist immediately caught up all the blood that was supposed to be going around the rest of my body and then she flung my hand away as if it was a piece of crap I looked at her my eyes going wider."What the hell are you still doing here?" she asked me with every bit of animosity and her voice and then I stepped back a little bit thinking of
Kiara povI quickly went behind Bryant. His grandmother was looking at me. I know she wanted to tear me into a million pieces and given the opportunity it shows that she was readily going to do it."You are scaring my wife, please can you leave?"Suddenly it was as if his grandmother had aged another 20 years and the edge in her voice suddenly disappeared as she looked over to her grandson and spoke so softly that if I had not leaned forward I would have not been able to hear a single word that she said. "Are you really defending that woman over me? Are you really going to be taking her side over your own grandmother?" She was speaking as if she was going to burst into tears at any point in time, seeing that she was far too emotional to keep speaking I decided to just say what was on my mind and get it over with before there were any more interruptions."Bryant, I'm going to quit. I don't think that I will be a good secretary to you and I don't want to hold you back either…."He loo
Kiara pov I went over to his office to look for him but I realize that he wasn't there quite quickly, now just as I was about to leave and look for him I turned around and almost bumped into a wall so I quickly step back I realized quite quickly that it wasn't a wall that I almost bumped into rather it was a person. Taking a few steps back and looking at the man from head to toe I was able to confirm that he was one of the most handsome people that I have ever met but he came nothing close to my husband however it will be biased to see that he wasn't good looking at all he was clothed in a light brown suit and his eyes ran over me curiously. Now this would have been so much of a pleasant encounter if the person that I was standing in front of was not actually the man that had tried to take advantage of me, my husband's cousin Oscar."Good morning," I greeted him with a tight voice the last thing I wanted to do was to be seen with this man but I guess I wasn't really too concerned a
Kiara's povSettling down into becoming my husband's secretary was incredibly challenging knowing that I had to support him in building this company that was one of the best in the world and that any little mistake on my side will greatly affect him was something that made my heart throb every morning as I woke up but I was determined to live up to the expectations that he had set for me he was the only one that believed in me and because of that, I had to make sure that he wasn't disappointed.I always woke up extra early and began my morning routine partially because I wanted to come early to work and another reason why I did that was because I realized that if I wanted to get through my day without starting it off with a really bad mood I was supposed to wake up earlier than Bryant's grandmother and his former fiancee because the moment I laid eyes on one of them it's bond for them to start training curses on me.However, despite the fact that I have woken up so early today when I
Kiara povBy the time I finally got to the office my stomach was growling so much that somebody who was seated next to me in a taxi looked at me with his side eyes and I had to pretend like I didn't notice it as I placed the folders that I have taken along with me to work on the night before on my stomach hoping to muffle the sound if it was just a little bit.But thankfully by the time I got to the elevator, it had subsided a little bit, the first thing I had to do in the morning was make sure that my boss had his early morning coffee to get him in the mood to work and that was what I did get him his favourite strong coffee which was black coffee personally I prefer something much sweeter but he said this was what really gave him the strength he needed every morning and who was dying to say no to my boss?A few minutes later I was placing the hot steamy coffee that was what I was supposed to do but because I was so tired and fatigued before I could even make it to his table I somehow
Bryant pov"Why haven't you been answering my calls?"I tiredly placed my chin on my palm as I listened to the woman that they called Anna complaining again. That seems to be something that she was really always ready for but today I didn't know if I would be able to entertain her as I usually did.She claims that I was in a romantic relationship with her before in the past and I had even proposed to her but it was due to circumstances that I had married my wife.There was never a time she failed to emphasize just how much I adore her and how much I could not live without her that we have so many plans together going as far as to say that we had even thought of children's names together all in all it was a very uncomfortable conversation every single time because my heart only throbbed when I heard my mate's voice.All the feelings that she was always claiming that I had for her were things that I could only feel for Kiara so it confused me how she was so determined to make me believe
Kiara povAs soon as I stepped in with Bryant everybody instantly stood up to recognize his presence which was expected but what was unexpected was the way he was still completely frozen like a statue after getting this attention he was expected to sit down first and then everybody would follow suit but he just remained in that position he's staring from one person to another as first I thought that he was trying to see if he recognized anybody. However, I quickly realized that he was so nervous that he didn't even know what he was going to do next when I looked at his fingers and realized that they were shaking like somebody had shoved them into ice. So I quickly came forward hiding his fingers with the folder that I was holding and then squeezing it from the other side that was now covered up after I did this he became animated again and started moving around I'm just before he could spell the word of appreciation to me which wasn't necessary but I took it happily feeling like I w
