Flynn sketched the least of the concerns, acting better than I expected when listening to that. For a moment, as I said, I thought that his pride could speak louder and that he would retreat, but on the contrary, he supported both hands next to my head and leaned down, watching my mouth and not my eyes."I agree to keep getting to know each other and see what this can happen. But don't ask me to be discreet, Tasha. When I want something, I go to the end. And all I want right now is to unravel each of its mysteries, even if it takes a few days or a long time.”I knew that. In fact, I really expected him to go all the way, even if there was no chance of a happy ending to that fairy tale inside out, I wanted him to strive to the last drop. And I realized the promises he made through beautiful words.No man who has just met a woman will say on his second date that he would like to spend years with her to discover her secrets. He said this to try to reach some place that no other man has b
However, what I questioned the most was the fact that Flynn didn't need to prove to be a person he wasn't. He would probably be able to beat me with his jokes, he didn't need to say all the time between the lines that he wanted to delve into that relationship. Because options I knew he had, and many. So, if he was trying to seduce me with that little game of depressed man who didn't feel important to anyone, it's because there was much more beyond what I could find in my investigations. And, unfortunately, I would only find out if I agreed to embark on that game of seduction that would probably end my heart even more.Flynn replied to his ex-wife saying that he did not miss her and would never forgive everything that happened, but that if she wanted to talk, he was willing. And they were exchanging accusations for so long that I was bored and decided to take my shower. I rubbed my body while thinking about my next steps.Flynn would certainly be in my bed at that very moment thinking t
My cell phone alarm clock went off at six fifteen in the morning. I, who stayed awake even though sleep was trying to take everything from me, didn’t have much trouble getting out of bed and going to the kitchen to prepare a basic breakfast for Flynn and me. He, on the other hand, remained out for a long time, until the smell of scrambled eggs reached the room and he stuck himself in the bathroom for a moment later to come to meet me."Good morning, my dear," he hummed, surprising me with a hug from behind.I couldn't help but feel stuck in a romantic comedy movie. Not even in my seven months adapting to the relationship with Cristiano could I experience half of the sensations that Flynn was awakening in my body. And he was masterfully managing to make every part of my heart choose to give himself to him, even though my head focused on not letting him take over my thoughts all the time. I would like to know if he felt the same way."Good morning, Mr. Ashton," I returned in a low voice
My cell phone vibrated when a message arrived on Flynn's cell phone, while he was still on a call with the insurance company. It was a woman named Carmen. As far as I remembered last night, this woman had her conversation archived on his cell phone, and she didn't have a photo that revealed to be very well taken care of. She looked older, and the message she sent him said that she couldn't clean the house that weekend, because she had contracted a very strong flu. I was relieved to understand that she was just another employee of her life. However, there was still another woman, whose photo I couldn't open so that he wouldn't realize that someone was accessing his phone, and that I couldn't see much in the standard size of photos in the application.But my biggest concern was realizing that he was still talking to his ex-wife. She had sent a good morning message, and he replied, although he didn't send any emoticons. I didn't know what would have been the reason why his ex-wife had be
It also meant that maybe I couldn't even maintain my friendship with Joseph, because I didn't have so many reasons to go down to his floor, but I was so happy that at the moment something like that didn't even occur to me. And Flynn remained with a smile on his face as I spoke excitedly about how grateful and eager I was to really learn about the profession I longed to achieve.Truly, my initial plan was to live from my writing, but as I could not afford my college of Letters, the administration course was as close to a decent salary I would get at the time. And the opportunity Flynn was giving me was the most I could get on my own. Hopefully, I might not even need to complete the course to find a job in the area, and maybe I would be able to achieve my life goals even faster.Flynn listened to everything carefully, sketching to be proud of himself for leaving me in that torpor of excitement. He watched me carefully and even a glow of admiration in his eyes, and I ended up noticing th
Julya had a duster in her hand and very calmly shook it on the table, although her eyes were on me all the time. She smiled when I finally stopped looking at Flynn's back moving away and took a step to stand in front of her."So...? "I started nervous."So, congratulations," she said, stretching her lips filled with a nude lipstick. "We started our routine by pretending we're cleaning the counter. Hygiene is the fundamental principle of our company. And I say that we are pretending because we are going to clean it every day, and there will come a time, like today, when not a grain of dust will be visible, but... "she pointed with the duster to the top of the left wall, indicating a camera. "The security and prevention personnel are always watching us, so remember to start by cleaning the counter, groping your uniform to be always aligning, and maintaining your posture in the chair. Once I ended up sitting more relaxed and they called me to keep fixing my posture, can you believe it? A
"Confess, you're catching each other," Joseph said accusingly. "Seriously, Tasha, you can confess. We don't talk about anything else in this office.”I watched him over the pile of documents I carried in my arms, all carefully hidden by thin covers of folders. It was the third time in less than fifteen minutes that Joseph tried to pull out some confession that made sense for my new sector within the company. Because everyone believed that the function of an intern was to be enslaved by all sectors at the same time, and not that he was wandering back and forth looking for signatures on documents and sending emails. Something that became my job two days ago.And during this period I had to get used to the routine of escaping from people in the corridors, to get away from the questions, because even those who never knew my name started to corner me in search of answers. Others pretended sympathy, fearing that I could remember all the embarrassment and delicate situations that had already
Now the security guards didn't even pretend they weren't listening anymore. Even Mr. Amaral raised his head from his computer screen to observe who was sitting on whom. My face was on fire. Joseph has always been very funny, but I couldn't find it funny now that the joke was about me."Because after I found out he was my boss, I was running away from his attacks," I said in a hiss. "That's why no one can know that I was going out with him, since now we're not going out anymore. We decided to maintain a friendship, so as not to harm our coexistence in the company.”"Are you running away from Flynn Ashton? "He asked in disbelief, I closed my face in response. "I'm sorry, daisy, I'm not questioning your tastes or your appearance... I'm just saying that no woman in their conscience would have no way to fall into the graces of a man like that. I can even say with all the property in the world that not even a man would resist if Flynn said he wanted him. Now you come to me with this litany
