Evelyn

"Ms. Melgren, would you like to add something?" Beth asks as she closes the folder.

"No. I'm content with the progress and the work—" sparing a look at my employees, I continued, "— you all have done. Good job!" I give a rewarding smile.

"I want to add something," Tinsely speaks, her voice apprehensive as she adjusts her large glasses.

"Sure. What is it?"

"Later Tinsely. I have to return to Archer Enterprises." Beth stands up and starts packing her things.

"Then you can go, Beth. As I'm the CEO I can cater to whatever she has to say." Every nerve in my body strains in irritation but I try not to show it.

"But I have to be pres—" her eyes narrow as she stops fidgeting with the papers.

"Evelyn and I will take care of it. Bye Beth." Yasmine waves at her with a grin. It seems to only infuriate the woman further but Beth still wastes no time in exiting the room. I'm certain I hear everyone take a sigh of relief at her departure.

    #Chapter 53 EvelynMiles comes into my office and perches himself into my lap. My hand rubs his fur back and forth as I continue researching how to renovate the room we painted weeks ago. Now that the walls have dried up, they look lovely. The first time I came into the room, a certain calm hugged me. I'm not going to lie. I was a bit hesitant with my choice of color, but in the end, it turned out greater than I expected. Now the next task is to fill the room with furniture and decoration. Miles nudges my jaw and I look down at him."What's up Miles?" I scratch his neck and his eyes droop in pleasure. "I love my work, but you're my number one." Miles doesn't say anything but relaxes in my lap. There was a time when he was just a pup and now he's a full-grown dog that makes my thighs ache if he sits on me longer than half an hour. His fur is like an additional accessory to my outfits. Miles is the constant in my life who's been there for me always. It d

    #Chapter 54 EvelynJuly passed by like a stranger on a subway. I met Warren at the beginning of it. And now we're two days into August. As the days slipped into weeks, my fortress' bricks crumbled to the ground. My guard is up and I don't trust Warren, but I'm starting to come to terms with the fact that he isn't going away. Warren is planning on staying for as long as he needs to in order to repair the heartache he caused me. If that night has left any mark on me, it's those words he said to me when we danced like a couple who's been in love for ages. The irony.I can't let you go. My every thought chases you, and you have no idea how maddening that is. My heart flutters like a butterfly trapped in a mason jar whenever those words cross my mind. "Evelyn, thank you for your time. I'm excited to see the designs." Vanessa claps her hands and hugs me with a joyous smile. For a second I'm frozen to the spot and barely move. "You're welcome." I pat her back and

    #Chapter 55 Evelyn"Are you sure that's the lamp you want?" Ivan asks with a scowl plastered on his face."What's wrong with it?" A frown grows between my eyebrows as I study the object carefully."Everything," Ivan says, sounding completely exasperated. "You're being delusional." I put the lamp in my cart and move along. "'Not once in my life have I imagined shopping at IKEA with my stupid best friend." "I'm not stupid," I protest."Buying that lamp makes you stupid.""I don't care." "You should. You'll be the stupid owner of a stupid lamp." Ivan runs a hand through his fingers and tugs the strands lightly. His blue eyes appear darker in shade today and his body language is strained. "Are you okay Ivan?" We stop in the middle of the aisle."I'm fine. What would happen to me?" The octave of his voice rises a little and causes the muscles in my stomach to clench in worry. "I think we're done here. Let's head to the counter." I only purc

    #Chapter 56 EvelynThe chime of his phone breaks the moment. Retrieving it out of his pocket he stares at the screen. I marvel as I watch a smile grow on his face and his eyes soften in color. These are subtle changes, but I spot them."Message from the lover boy?" Now it's my turn to wiggle my eyebrows."What? Psst no!" Ivan's lying skills need improvement. Another chime of his phone and his cheeks tint pink."You might want to reply to him," I say, enjoying the way my best friend is fumbling with the phone. "He needs help with something." "Then go. Miles and I will get an Uber." Opening the door I grab Miles, who barks at the two of us in protest."I'm sorry Miles. We were talking. I swear we didn't forget you." I sit down and give him a scratch. Miles woofs loudly in acknowledgment."I'll get you ice cream. Will you forgive me then?" Nudging my face with his nose he licks my chin and pants hungrily."I can drop you two at the apartment and th

    #Chapter 57 Evelyn"So you are in the city." To avoid suspicion I look out of the window."Just arrived an hour ago. I was in Paris for the past week. I was working on a project that needed my immediate attention," Warren explains and the anxiety in my head lowers in volume until there are just echoes. I hate myself for admitting this but I sort of missed Warren last week. I can't deny the truth, which is I'm getting used to him being in my life. I've spent ten years without him which counts up to a lot of weeks and days. But it took one month for him to shake my equilibrium and make me feel something for him. I can't exactly pinpoint what the feeling is but it seems to be trapped inside the crystal of pain and heartbreak. That resides in my chest, firmly wedged in my heart with his name carved into it. "And you picked up their language on the way home?" Warren lets out a husky chuckle that makes the butterflies move crazily in my stomach.Calm down. "N

    #Chapter 58 EvelynThe air leaves my lungs when I notice an array of cars lined up in the elegant hall, lit up by the bright fluorescent lights in the ceiling. They're all in dark colors and reflect the light off their pristine exteriors."Oh my God," I whisper as I walk towards a black car that has a Mercedes logo on the bonnet. Miles puts his front paws on the top of the car and I scoop him in my arms so he can't scratch the surface with his nails. Sometimes my dog behaves like a baby."You like cars?" Warren comes and stands beside me."I do. But I'm not really into the details of them. As long as it looks fabulous, I'll buy it." "Which one looks the most fabulous here?" My eyes roam over the array of cars, stopping at a BMW. "I see," Warren says quietly.Slipping into his private elevator we reach his penthouse, which is located on the last floor of the building. With a ding, the doors slide open and I set Miles down as he wanders into the place

    #Chapter 59 WarrenThis must definitely be a dream. Evelyn is at my place, with her dog, and eating dinner with me. Fuck! I've gotten fond of her dog. He's so smart. Definitely like his owner. "When will that project be completed?" Evelyn asks, sipping the hot chicken soup I made. "In three years. We're still working on the blueprints and designs. The investor wants it to represent the culture of France while also having a modern edge," I explain, my passion for the subject leaking into my voice."So that is your WIP. Wha—""WIP?" "Work in progress." She looks at me.I nod, encouraging her to continue. "I have a question." A smirk takes over her delicate face."Go ahead," I say."Do you create the designs yourself or do you just get someone else to do it?" "The designs are called blueprints and I used to draw them myself but then I founded the company. So now I overlook everything before finalizing."Evelyn gets quiet as she eats. Bes

    #Chapter 60 WarrenWe prepare the table in my living room for dinner. It gives an impeccable view of the city and Miles perches up on the couch, staking his claim on the spot. Evelyn and I share a smile and follow his lead.I had prepared sauces while Evelyn had fried a container of wings. Apparently, Miles loves chicken whilst Evelyn isn't a fan of it. Something I noted down in my mind for future reference."So if you were on a date, you'd prefer vegan dishes?" We're sitting on the floor munching on the wings.Miles barks in response to my question and Evelyn laughs."Yes. I'd hate to contribute toward the butchering of animals," she explains and my heart soars in my chest at her reasoning. Only Evelyn would care about damn animals."You loved eggs in high school," I counter. With a gasp, she hits my arm. "Don't mention that." Her words are like vapors wafting away from my head as my concentration focuses on where she had hit me on the arm. Just a week ag

    #Chapter 153 EvelynWarren puts me on the bed and hovers over me the next second. His nose grazes my jawline and his hands move up and down my waist.I press my legs together feeling the heat in my belly grow."How do you want me to fuck you tonight?"My breathing slows down as he peppers my skin with wet kisses that have my toes curling."Like you always do." I whisper as his hand slips under my warmer and runs over my stomach."Get rid of all these clothes." He grumbles and pulls back.In a haste I remove my warmer and then work on my jeans and shoes. Warren is busy getting rid of his suit. Once we're both in our undergarments we stop and stare at each other.We've had sex so many times yet tonight something is different. It feels like we're finally free from the shackles of the past-at least I am.I feel free. There isn't constant sadness and despair weighing on my chest anymore. I forgave Warren for everything but in reality it feels like I'

    #Chapter 152 WarrenI've hurt her. I can see that. But I can't take my words back. The dark and malicious side of my brain is feeding me these lines. Telling me that whatever we had was just because she wanted to use me. Maybe she did."Wow. You're unbelievable." Evelyn says and puts away her wine-filled glass on the table.Getting up she hurries to leave but I catch her wrist and pull to me. My arm wraps around her and I press her body against mine. My senses go hazy and my heart starts racing at the feel of her body. "That was a shitty thing to say." I admit.Tears fill her eyes and she nods. "It was."I wipe away the tear that falls down her cheek and then caress her face with my thumb. It hasn't been so long but I miss her so damn much.Now that she's standing in front of me all I want to do is touch her, kiss her and love her. I want to hold her so tightly that she can never go away from me. "Tell me why you're here? The naked truth this time.

    #Chapter 151 WarrenSitting in the boardroom I flip through the notes for my speech. I don't have a lot to say but I have a few things I want to touch upon before the holidays.It's the last day of work today. And everyone will go home after this meeting.All the important members are seated as everyone waits for Rowan.Just as the clock hits ten AM Rowan walks in and takes the seat at the head of the table. "You may begin." He says to Janice who starts the presentation she and I worked on for the past week.As she rambles on I catch a few glances at Rowan to track his thoughts but he's a blank book. Like a laser his eyes study Janice and the slides in grave concentration. When Janice finishes we review the blueprints that need a final say from him. But before that I have to give my thoughts as the CEO of the company that will bring this vision to life.Taking the pager I stand in front and pull up my presentation. I open my mouth to speak when a string of n

    #Chapter 150 WarrenI hate New York.I've been here for two weeks and I can't fathom how people live here. It's so fucking cold. And the snow keeps on accumulating each day. The famous city is buzzing with Christmas energy. Colorful lights are wrapped around shops, Christmas drinks are a full-show and wreaths and impressively decorative Christmas trees are everywhere. There's so much joy and laughter in the air that I'm sick of it.It's not that I hate Christmas because I don't. For the past years I've gotten used to celebrating this day on my own, and sometimes with Connor. His family invites me over and I attend the exquisite dinner his mom cooks. Gifts are exchanged. It's nice, but not homey. When I return home it's me and my empty penthouse and that kills the spirit. In New York even Connor isn't here and it's boring and depressing.Since I've arrived I've been working a lot. I only go to sleep when my eyes begin to water and exhaustion takes over me.

    #Chapter 149 Evelyn"All the flights are booked. I can't go to New York." Ivan and Yasmine mutter curses at the situation."God. It's like I'm not meant to go there." I complain, hating how everything seems to be stopping me. I opened the website to book a flight and it kept crashing. I spent all day trying to get it to work but it wouldn't work. And the next day when everything was back in order the prices were so high my eyes almost bulged out in shock. With a heavy heart I booked a seat but the page kept having issues. By evening all the empty seats were gone and I couldn't find a single seat."Don't blame the universe." Ivan says in a stern tone."Yeah sure. It seems to help me quite a lot. It's snowing so much I can't even go to the airport to buy a ticket myself." I say in an aggravated tone. "We'll figure it out Evelyn." Yasmine assures me."I don't know. Everything is closed. An airplane is my only chance." I say in a gloomy tone."You shouldn't

    #Chapter 148 EvelynTwo weeks have gone since Warren and I broke up. But it feels like I'm still stuck in that night when he was inside me and told me how much he loves me. I was always a bit in doubt about his real feelings toward me, but that night cleared everything for me. Warren loves me and has loved me since high school. My heart explodes in joy but sorrow filters in the next second. The past weeks have been nothing but dry and boring for me. Nothing interests me.Jessica and I have been splitting work due to the flow of orders. Apparently, Noah and his sister raved about my company at the wedding and now more people have approached me. It's surreal and I feel happy. But that also means there's a lot of work which I'm appreciating. I've become a workaholic. From making designs till late at night to holding long meetings. I keep myself as busy as I can but the ache in my chest refuses to disappear.No amount of work or long drives helps me take my mind

    #Chapter 147 Warren"Do you still have the New York project?" Rowan looks up at me with calculating eyes as he sees me coming into his office. "Yes.""Bring it over for the signature." I unbutton my jacket and sit in the chair across from his desk. Eerie silence fills the room as Rowan stares at me. "You want it or not?" I ask in a gritted tone annoyed that he's wasting my damn time."You broke up with Evelyn." He says astutely and makes me grind my molars."It's none of your fucking business., but what is your business is that New York project."Rowan leans over the desk and criss-crosses his fingers. "Watch that tone with me, Archer."Clenching my jaw I look away from his annoying face and stare at the sunset that adorns the evening sky. Fuck the sunsets. I don't like them anymore.Okay that's a lie. "You wanted me to sign the project for months. Now I'm here.""You're a little too late for my patience. But since you're the best I'll set my p

    #Chapter 146 EvelynOn my way I buy two bottles of cheap wine and arrive at Yasmine's place. She lives with her mom outside the city in a nice big house with a picket fence. Her house looks dreamy and feels like home. I texted Ivan to come. By the time I pull up at her house it's two in the morning, and I'm emotionally tired and physically numb. Yet still I can hear my heart aching in excruciating pain.The lights are on as I make my way to the door. Before I can knock, it opens, and my two best friends look at me and pull me in a hug. I let the tears stream down my face. Miles goes frantic beside me and I try to calm him down, but he's not having it. Sitting on the couch in the living room I pull him on my lap and rub his fur in long slow strokes."Where's your mom?" I ask Yasmine."She's with Aunt Riley for the weekend." I nod and put the bottle on the table.Ivan and Yasmine sit across from me and pour wine into the glasses."So I guess this i

    #Chapter 145 EvelynI swear my lungs stop working, my heart stops beating and my mind goes blank. For a nanosecond my world stops spinning and I do nothing but lie and stare at him.My heart breaks inside my chest and tears cloud my vision."I've loved you for ten years. It's you. It'll always be you. It doesn't matter if another decade goes by, for me it'll always only be you." He says.Tears escape my eyes and reach my ears. The orgasm I was experiencing vanishes."Stop. I can't." I fight my wrists in his hold and he lets go of me and pulls out of me. Quickly I sit up and cover myself with his sheets as he slips on a pair of boxers. Picking up his shirt he hands it to me but I don't take it."We need to talk." There's a finality to his tone. Taking the shirt I wear it and then wipe away my tears. Warren sits at the foot of the bed and looks at me. "What's the matter?"I laugh hard. "The matter is love can't erase the past between us."Warre
