Nathan:

I sat down in my office, filling out paperwork that I had to submit to the board of directors in a few days, alongside the presentation that Enora was supposed to give.

The lunch break was almost over and I had refused to order anything. Ever since the argument between Enora and me in her office, my appetite had eluded me, and all I could do to keep my mind from thinking about her was to bury myself in work.

I picked up my phone; every fibre of my body was urging me to call her,, but it was still just like every other time: I picked it up, stared at the screen and then put it down and continued doing what I was doing.

If she wanted to talk to me, she knew where my office was but something told me that she wasn't going to make the first move.

I saw how angry she was, how mad she was about me coming over to her place unannounced, how she made a fuss over Bridget. I knew she cared about her, but couldn't she see that she was putting herself in danger?

    Enora:He slammed the door behind him and I was left alone to pick up my stuff from the floor.What pushed him to come search my office? I knew that I lied about the letter but I did not give him any right to come and sniffing through my stuff looking for it. Besides, it was long gone by now. I threw it out of the window on my way back from work. I didn't want to have any memory of the lunch that I had with Mr Kane and Eliot. It was a nightmare that I wished would never happen to me again.I wiped my face with the back of my hands, and after a few minutes, my drawer was back in order.My chicken from the restaurant sat on my desk, the aroma filling the air and cheering me up slightly.I never thought that good food would be such a saviour in a time like this.I sat at my desk, opened my laptop and quietly ate my chicken as I looked through emails. In the short time that I was gone, I received a lot and it was likely that I was going to stay back late again today to get it all done.As

    Enora:I felt my knees buckle as soon as they walked in and I knew I wasn't the only one. Emily was shivering to her bones and the only thing that Gina could do was stand there and stare at them like she was a deer.We were all asked to sit. The CEO and the directors were all in the room, watching us with eagle eyes.My heart did a flip in my chest. He knew and there was no point in lying about it anymore.The oldest man who looked around sixty five stood up and addressed the room.“I am sure that you all know that our business proposal with KKC has been terminated. We no longer are doing business with them of any kind.”There was a large mumble around the room and after a few seconds, the room was back to being quiet and calm. Poor Gina was as white as a ghost, but she still kept a straight face.“It has reached our attention that all of you were reported to be seen having lunch with Mr Cain at his privately owned restaurants and we have every reason to believe that during that time

    Nathan:They all left and I was left alone with the board.“Why didn't you tell us that your daughter was dating Mr Kane's son?” One of the directors asked accusingly. Do you know how much of an advantage this could have been for us?I glared at the director, and he shrunk immediately, but he still had a sour expression on his face.“You are the CEO of this company, Mr Right. I expect you to not be so short-sighted. This was an opportunity. Your daughter was the perfect person on the inside to get information about Mr Rights, but you chose to keep this from us, and now come up, we're only just finding out.”I shook my head slowly and tried my best to keep my anger under control. These men were old fools, and the only thing they cared about was fattening their pockets. Then knew nothing about how a company should be run, and I wasn't sure if I could blame them or not.“What you are insinuating, is sending my daughter as a spy to KKC just because she is dating the CEO’s son?”There was

The office was quiet and Gina sn Emily were mess. They already made plan to use their paid time off and stay awya froim work tomorrow and we all agredd that it was for the best. I took a depe breath. Everything was set/ All I wanted to do was get home and pretend that all this never happened. I wasn’t resady for any inquires or… There was a knock at the door and it oponed slowly. Mr. Wright came in and I felt my heart skip a beat and I glared at him. “Are you here to gloat or to ask me questions about what happened?” He was silent for a while and I continued packing my stuff, not ready to give him a second of my time. I have been through more than enough for today. In fact, I had been through enough for a lifetime and all I wanted to do was flop on the bed and wish that I could turn back the hands of time

    Enora:“I sent her home for the day. I actually thought that it was going to be possible to come and see you.”He raised his eyebrows at me and I shrunk back. I was really worried. I also didn’t want her to get hurt in case something actually did happen.“So, might I ask what spurred all this anxiety from you?” he asked, putting one hand in his pocket as he took me in.I led him to the living room and on the table was the box: unopened and still very much intact and the letter next to it.His eyes darted across the paper and once he was done, he put it aside, grabbed the box and tore open the wrapping paper.A small jewellery box was under it. My heart was racing and my breath caught in my throat as the box was opened.“Oh my God!”Mr. Wright glared at me angrily. I tried my best not to be surprised but I have never seen a necklace like that. It was encrusted with diamonds that sparkled in the light.“Pathetic. His grand ploy to get your attention was to buy you jewellery?”He shut th

    Nathan:Her eyes shone as she peeked out of the window with so much glee and delight. I couldn’t help but smirk at myself. For a lady who said that she didn’t want jewellery, she seemed very eager. Either way, I was going to return this trash that Kane gave her and get her something that was actually worth her. No way was I going to allow Kane to sneak in and take her.“Are we going to go out or are you just content with looking out of the window and looking star-struck?”He looked at me, her face red with embarrassment as she shrunk slightly.“Sorry. I was just…”The door opened on my end and I asked her to stay put while I got out, came to her side and opened it for her.“Miss Lopez.”She looked taken aback by my outstretched hand but took it nonethe less. She stepped out into the evening and clutched her coat tighter. It was very cold, colder than I expected. A cold draft blasted my face and I frowned. I shpuld have considered bringing a coat along instead of settling for a turtle

    Enora:He turned to me, his jaw clenched and his eye full of questions. The text message stared back at me from my phone.How many times was I going to block his number?I was just about to delete it from my phone when he snatched it from me."Hey!"But he ignored me and scrolled furiously.His eyes darted back and forth on the screen and I watched him."You have his number, Enora...""I don't."“Then how...""I don't know," I cut in. "He's been calling me and sending me texts but I keep blocking him and deleting his number."His jaw tightened and he glared at me. I stared back, lost in his angry brown eyes that flashed a deep crimson."I'm not lying," I whimpered. "You can check it for..."He grabbed my face and kissed me full on the lips, claiming me, searching my mouth and relishing my taste.I could feel my body humming as it fell in tune with his, my knees weakening and my breath being sucked out of me."You... are... Mine," he growled, pulling away from me and glaring at me with

    Enora:My juices warmed my fingers and a deep moan escpaed my lips. I felt my legs squeeze tight around my hand but I also willed them apart to allow my fingers explore deeper while he watched.I couldn’t see him but I could hear him breathing: deeply, lustfully, through his teeth as he watched me test my soaked body.A chill shivered my spine. This was pleasureable– scandalous– knowing that he was watching me do this to myself and that he was loving every second of it.“Good girl,” he purred deeply. “Keep going.”I felt a smile crack my lips.“You like watching me?” I asked breathlessly, sliding my two fingers in deeper and drawing a sharp gasp.“You are such a tease, Kitten… Come here.”I slid my fingers out of my warm body and walked towards him, my knees trembling and my heart beat racing a little faster with each step I took towards him.My skin was sensitive all over as I anticipated his touch. Fuck! The stakes felt so high. Everything changed so fast when one couldn’t see.I d

    Enora:“What the hell is going on?” I demanded, standing up from the sofa and staring at Anthony with hate and suspicion.He stood up as well and walked towards me, smiling wickedly as he took me in with lust and disdain.“You had to have known that this was coming, Enora,” he said darkly, chuckling dryly and looking to the door as if he expected someone to come in.“You know, there's just something about you in the office that just doesn't seem to sit well with me.”I backed away, trying my best to increase the distance between the both of us. “Stay away from me!” I yelled, but Anthony’s laughter just continued to become more sinister. Where the hell was George? He should have realized that something was amiss by now.“If you're thinking about your buff gardener, just know that he was incapacitated a few minutes ago. He won't be coming to your aid, Enora.”My heart skipped a beat. What was happening? How the hell did I end up this deep in trouble? Who was he? Was he even the real An

    Enora:Nicki took centre stage and called for a game of charades. Everyone began to pair up in twos. Luke was still with Emily, Jay was with Gina, Eliot opted out of the game and surprisingly, Anthony paired up with me. I was a little uneasy as he sat next to me. We weren’t on speaking terms but at least he wasn’t mad enough to detest me and avoid me like I was the black plague. “Alright, I believe you all know the rules of this game. The first team to guess gets a point. No cheating and no trying to make your teammate win by using any funny hand signs. G, you’re up.”Gina took the stage and pulled a paper from the hate. She looked at it and made a face. I could only imagine what the hell she picked.Soon she raised her hands above her head and began to bend in the funniest way. The crazy guesses commenced.“Line!”“Straight!”“Balloon guy!” She shook her head and lowered her hand. She imitated someone who was drawing and went back to her first action. “You are an artist!

    Enora:There was a heavy silence in the room. All eyes were fixed on Eliot, on one knee, holding out a ring. Bridget was dumb dumbfounded. For a few minutes, she was unable to say anything and I couldn’t blame her. This was a shock to all of us. Eliot had just cheated on her and now he was trying to propose to her. “Bridget, please say something.”Bridget said nothing as was still staring at the ring in disbelief, like it was all part of a dream, that her ex-boyfriend of just a day ago was proposing to her.“Bridget, I…”A resounding slap filled the room and everyone’s hands flew to their mouths and gasps rippled inthe room. I was stunned. Bridget was not a fighter and she wasn’t one to lose her head over things but I could understand her reaction to this.“You cheated on me with some girl named, Vanessa, and now you have the audacity to show up to this party uninvited to prose to me?! How stupid are you? How stupid do you think I am?”Her voice was raised and was shakey. I wanted

    Enora:It was 6:45 pm. The guests were going to be here any moment from now. I was dressed and so was Bridget. It also turned out that her yelling on the phone was beneficial. The bakery was able to deliver just in time. The macrons were perfect, I didn't want to seem greedy but I had had my eyes on them all day since they arrived. I had even tried to snatch one but eagle-eyed Bridget had caught me just before I could pick one off the tray. She had also made a call to Choi’s and they promised to bring some food. Bridget put it all on her tab and I was so grateful to her. This party wouldn’t have been a success without her. By 7:00 pm sharp, the first guests arrived. There was a knock at the door and I opened it to see Gina standing there all dolled up in a beautiful black dress. It had been a while since I saw her but I could tell that she was in good spirits. I took it that she got the memo from Mr. Wright and that she was innocent. I was happy that she was back to her beautiful

    Enora:"Enny, who is at the door?” Bridget called from inside. I was too ashamed to say anything and Anthony came inside behind me. I didn’t need to see his face to know that he was pissed. His smiley and carefree attitude had vanished into thin air and he was icy and distant.“Hey, Tony,” Bridget said with a smile but her smile quickly vanished and she looked at me with shock. Her eyes were everything but there was no way that I could tell her what was going on as well. She was just as involved as she was. “I’ll go and get the ladder from George. You two can decide where to hang the banner.”She left–I really wished she didn’t–I was alone with Anthony. He came to stand in front of me and I forced my head up to look at his heated expression.“What the hell, Enora,” he said roughly, his voice just a few shades away from a yell. I have been trying to reach you for almost three days. You just ghosted me. No calls, texts, voice notes and to make matters worse, you wouldn’t even return a

    Chapter 213Enora:There was a knock at my door and my phone dropped from my hand. I looked at the time, it was still very early in the morning. It had to be Bridget. As I opened the door, she stood there in a very unfashionable top and a pair of dark purple sweatpants.Compared to yesterday, she was in a much better mood and she wore a warm smile on her face.“Hey, I hope you're ready because we're going to be very busy today,” she said excitedly and she entered my house.She was clutching a little bag, her hair was tied in a messy ponytail. It was one of those rare sights, seeing Bridget unfashionable and unkempt in the morning. Even when her hair was a messy sight, she was still so pretty.As she entered my living room, her eyes widened and her jaw dropped.“Are all these for the party?” She asked, heading over to my centre table.“Yeah, I also bought a few things for myself. Turns out I'm running out of shampoo.”She reached for my hair and ruffled it playfully. “Of course, you

    Chapter 212Enora:Saturday came faster than I had expected. I even slept in. Bridget and I had been on the phone for so long, last night that we both fell asleep on each other during the call. I was still trying to roll out of bed when my phone began to ring. I grabbed it sleepily and saw that it was Bridget.“Hey girl,” I said with a yawn as I pressed the green button. “How are you?”“Good,” she replied even though she was just as sleepy as I was. “I’ll be coming over to your place soon. Get out of bed so that we can get this party started.”I chuckled sleepily. “You’re still in bed too. Don't call the kettle black.”“I am certainly not calling any pots or kettles black,” she argued playfully. “Get out of bed sleepy bones. We have a lot to do.”The call ended and I got out of bed. The floors were cold and my toes curled as soon as they touched them. A thought immediately forced me awake and I hurried to the bathroom. As soon as I closed the doors behind me, I pulled down my trou

    Chapter 211Enora:The preparations for the housewarming party began and Bridget was feeling a whole lot better. Her once pale face had brightened up, and she had a splash of colour on her cheeks due to the excitement. Planning parties and events always helped cheer up and I was happy that I gave this to her to do.“This is beautiful,” she commented, looking at the list in her hand and the room around her. “You had managed to prepare to make the workload easier for tomorrow morning.”“I'll hit you up in the morning tomorrow and we can finalize the preparations. I know you said you wanted to cook but I think I'd be more comfortable in bringing in external catering.”I didn't say anything; I wanted her to prepare the party how she saw fit. As much as it was my housewarming party, I knew that because of what had happened with Eliot, she needed this one or anything.“I'll be fine with whatever you decide,” I said with a smile. “Just forward me whatever changes in the plans you have made

  • My Best Friend’s Father Wants me   Chapter 210

    Enora:Just as the words left Bridget's mouth, she burst into a fresh round of tears. I looked at her in disbelief, trying my best not to seem unsympathetic. Eliot was an asshole and I wouldn't put it away from him that he could pull something like this.“It's okay, Bridget. There's no need to cry. He wasn't worth your time anyway.”I hoped my words would provide some comfort for her but how wrong I was.Her tears only intensified, and before I knew it, she was taking a new round of tissues, and the pile on my centre table continued to grow.“I'm so embarrassed, Enora. I should have listened to you. I should not have trusted that bastard in the first place,” Bridget lamented, her voice hoarse from all the crying. I patted her softly on the shoulder.“There is no need to beat yourself up about it. Everyone makes mistakes…”“But I shouldn't have made this kind of mistake,” she snapped back, whipping her head around to look at me. Her eyes were terribly puffy and swollen and her mascar
