And when rumors that threaten to ruin both our reputations start to fly, there is only one way to solve it. How does Lynn survive in the same office as Bladen with his hard and stern demeanor? Can she get past his cold facade and reveal the secrets he hides? In a world of ambition and betrayal, can Bladen and Lynnette trust each other to make sacrifices for a blooming love story or will they front another gut-wrenching heartbreak? Read on to unveil the saga of these two!
Lihat lebih banyak_Lynette’s Point Of View_Bladen was going to fire me to avoid any repercussions of the scandal on his name, so my mind raced to think of yet another solution. If I had any ideas at all, there was a possibility of Bladen standing on him not taking any chances with each of them.Nothing solid was coming to my head anymore except the fact that this may very well be my last day working the job I loved because I couldn’t keep my eyes off a forbidden apple.My fingernails dug painfully into my free palm, and under the party dress that caused me this trouble, my phone buzzed directly against my lingerie-strapped thigh. Thankfully, it was on meeting mode.Bladen kept his eyes on me the entire time while my mind was going on a spiral and I was sure that he must have noticed my pale complexion, trembling hands, and blank stare because he shifted in his seat, causing my eyes to snap back to see what could have been mistaken for compassion on his face.That couldn’t be right because he just made
_Lynette’s Point Of View_If I didn't know better, I would have mistaken Bladen’s chilling tone for anger, but that was the least of my worries after hearing him say that he could have me fired for a narrative he had an almost equal hand in creating as I did. Suffering a job loss after the terrible state in which things ended between me and Victor would be something I’d struggle to recover from, so I would rather not lose my job right now.All I could do was think fast in a bid to make the scandal go away.I could attest to the fact that Bladen was an insanely attractive man, so he definitely had women flocking him like moths to a flame and scandals like this all the time. An idea flashed in my head, and I voiced it out.“I am certain that a man like you must have dealt with this before, so it shouldn’t be new. You must have the influence and resources to have the blogs say that this is all a mistake, right?” I said, hating how desperate I sounded. “It might take a while, but it will
_Lynette’s Point Of View_Savannah’s phone was still in my grasp as I tried to think of how I would get myself out of this scandal of being Bladen’s mistress. I didn’t have much time, so when Savannah’s burst of laughter died down and she reached for her phone, I did the most stupid thing I could think of.I bolted.“Hey! My phone,” Savannah whisper-shouted behind me, but I paid her no attention, and thankfully, she didn’t follow me as I rushed for the restroom. It was only a matter of time before this news would spread around the office, so I needed to think quickly.My mind was set on the destination ahead that I didn’t notice when I was cornered by someone until a sharp sting on my left wrist almost blinded me.“Ow!” I cried out, snapping my head up to see who was inflicting such pain on my hand, only for my blood to run ice cold on meeting his bloodshot eyes and disheveled hair. Victor. “H-how are you here? You’re not supposed to be here, Victor,” I said breathlessly, looking arou
_Lynette’s Point Of View_This wasn’t how I imagined my morning would go, but then again, I couldn’t really expect that much from a one-night stand with a total stranger.After realizing that it was my co-worker, Savannah, who called me, I looked around the hotel room, to find that the hot grumpy man, Bladen, who took me to orgasm heaven and back last night, was nowhere to be seen. Hearing the sound of the shower running in the bathroom, I relaxed.My mind immediately went to last night’s events as my body thrashed and squirmed under Bladen’s weight, and truly, I screamed his name as I came so hard, that I technically died. Not once.Red crept up my cheeks till my face almost hurt, but it was too bad that I had to cut this morning short.Besides, what were we going to do if Bladen came out from the bathroom and found me idling on his bed?Have breakfast together? Kiss? Say “Bang later”?I’d never had a one-night stand, so I wouldn’t know, but I didn’t need to find out.Pushing myself
_Lynette’s Point Of View_ “Shit. I’m sorry, it’s my ex,” I muttered, squeezing my eyes shut and hoping that I would disappear, or magically turn into an insect. Not only was Victor showing up here to embarrass me, but he also decided to show up right when I thought I hit the jackpot with this gorgeous man. “The one you just got out of a relationship with?” The strange man asked, cutting through my thoughts. I hadn’t even gotten his name. “Yeah. Him,” I answered dryly. Turning back, I saw Victor marching toward me, so I said goodbye with a sigh. “It was nice meeting you.” With that, I took a step in Victor’s direction. He spoke before I could. “This is what you decide to do with yourself barely an hour after we split?” He scoffed. The effrontery of this man. Was Victor really trying to ridicule me for the same thing he did? How dare he? “Split? Is that what you call it? Because from what I remember, you made sure I saw with my eyes the disgusting things you did with some
_Lynette’s Point Of View_ “Lynn, you can’t let this get to you. I know it’s so much harder than it sounds, but you have to try,” Jessy’s concerned voice said. I was currently sitting on the floor of my room with my back to the door, and Jess was on the other side, trying to get me to open up. I knew I said I wasn’t going to cry, but as soon as Jess wrapped her arms around me when she first got here, the dam broke. I didn’t want her to see me crying so much, so I ran into my room and locked the door behind me. “Eight years, and what do I have to show for it?” I sobbed. “A used condom on his backseat and him trying to gaslight the hell out of me. I wasted my time on him, Jess.” The pain of what I just lost was so raw, it hurt physically. “Don’t say that, babes. You didn’t waste anything. You learned a lot about yourself and life too. It may seem insignificant at the moment, but trust me, it’s not. And this, this is his loss, not yours. Open the door and let me in, Lynn, I’m worr
_Lynette’s Point Of View_ “Come on, Jessy, be real and tell me what you think about this one,” I said sternly to my best friend, pushing the phone farther away from my body so that she could have a full view of the bright red lingerie set I had on. She huffed, dropping the sack of pretzels she had in her hand before she responded. “It’s good, Lynnette. You look really hot. Remind me why you’re playing dress up again?” I smiled at her question, trailing the tiny hand of the bra as my mind wandered to my boyfriend, sorry, my fiancé, Victor. “I find it so hard to get Victor’s attention these days, so I figured I should put in a little more effort to make myself more appealing,” I replied a little sadly over the FaceTime. Jessy’s expression changed, and I knew that she was about to say something along the lines of… “Lynn, you’re absolutely beautiful the way you are, and you shouldn’t have to work to make a man see it,” she said. Ah, yes, there it was. I laughed, shaking my
