The call ended and I let out a loud laughter.

“I didn’t come this far to get swayed by such talks” I said as I shut down my laptop.

At that point, I could only acknowledge my father for going all those without falling into the wrong hands or ending up in bad business.

I could imagine him getting fifty calls like that monthly, seeking for either the same request or some other. What if he had fallen prey to one of the negative ones?

I was still thinking about the call when I heard a knock on the door.

“I’m not expecting anybody” I muttered.

One of the things I hated was having uninformed visitors. I hated it when people showed up at my place without letting me know beforehand. I mean, what if I just wanted that solitude?

The only person I knew could visit me anytime he wanted, was my dad and last time we spoke, he was out of the country for one of his never-ending after retirement vacations.

“Come in” I said.

Then came a frown on my face as the person at the door was Samantha. She

    ADAMI had called for a brief meeting with Julie and a few others. It was almost two months and we had to start making plans on further ways to make the brand more known.We had a lot of back and forth due to the collision of ideas we all came up with. But after everything, we finally agreed on one thing, which was going to be shared to the rest of the staff in a meeting I scheduled for the next day.I sat, patiently waiting for the rest of the group to get seated. They had recently formed a habit of late-coming, which I had given them countless queries for.“Do you people realize how important this meeting is?” I spoke up, as I lost my patience.“I’m sure they’re on their way. Probably got stuck in the traffic or something” Julie defended them.“Oh, Julie! That’s not an excuse. They’ve been consistently doing it for days and I wouldn’t like to take extreme measures” I fumed.“I apologize on their behalf. I’m sure they have valid reasons for not being here till this moment” She said c

    ADAM“Yes, you’re right, boss” One person said.“True story. Exploring new methods is very vital for any company’s growth” Another added.“Yes, and Yes. I’m glad we are all on the same wavelength here. The likes of Nike and Adidas wouldn’t be where they are right now if they never came up with new designs and concepts. I mean, imagine having to wear the same style of Nike sneakers everyday of your life because that’s the only thing that was ever produced by Nike. Crazy, right” I asked, looking at Max, who was sort of a fashion icon at the office.“Well… I won’t wish to have that kind of nightmare. Not in this life. Not in another” He said and we all laughed.“I honestly cannot imagine a world with just one Nike sneakers. Max would be a regular visitor at the mental homes, because he would go crazy” Julie joked too.“You all see my point now. In as much as everyone loves us now, we should not be quick to forget how people switch to the next guy if you bore them out. For this, we need t

    ADAM“Well… I hope she has a really valid reason for not being present, ‘cause it’s unusual, and she was expected to be here with us as we discussed” I said.“I’ll try to reach her again when we’re done, to know if everything is alright with her” Max added.“Okay. That would be nice”Even though I no longer wanted to have anything to do with Samantha, I couldn’t deny the fact that she was a very pivotal part of the company. Her input towards the company’s growth over the year were immeasurable.I needed her to be with us during the meeting, because in as much as she always had a way to rival people’s opinions and contributions, she always had a way to bring up something intelligent as an alternative.“I guess that would be the end of the meeting. Since there are no further questions from any of you, we can all go back to our various offices” I concluded the meeting, while they all left for their places.“Julie, stay back, please” I stopped her as she was about joining the others.“Oh,

    ADAM“Tired? That’s not a thing in my dictionary. At least, not when I’m reminding Earth’s most beautiful creature of how privileged we mere mortals are to behold her beauty daily” I continued.Say all you can, but you can’t take this flattering thing from me. I was a Pro in the art of seducing the ladies with words and Julie wouldn’t be an exception.“Okay Okay. At this point, you have to stop. Else I’ll be getting my lingeries all wet” She said.Told ya!“But I’m merely stating an observation, Julie. I don’t think you look at the mirror. ‘Cause if you do, you’d know that such alluring beauty deserves to be worshipped, thrice a day and seven time more on weekends” I wasn’t relenting.“You’re so sweet when you want to, Adam. You still haven’t lost your sweet tongue” She said and held my hands as I was seated.“But then, I don’t believe you asked me to wait behind just to make me blush” She took her hands off.“Alright. How have you been, Julie? It’s been a while we were together alone

    JULIEI got back to my office to get started with work. We had very limited time to get the new project started, and a majority of the work depended on me. As much as Adam mandated everyone to be involved in the project, we all knew everything still fell on my shoulders.I would be the one to come up with t he ideas and other stuff. The rest would only come around to add a few things to the already existing idea I would come up with.As I scrolled through my laptop, my mind went back to Adam. For obvious reasons, I couldn’t seem to get my mind off him.His compliments that morning left me in smiles. I kept giggling sheepishly whenever I remembered how I was acting like a kid as he said those brain-exploding words to my ears.I wish I had recorded him as he was telling me gorgeous I was that morning. That guy could make a lady wet just by mere compliments. It wasn’t just about the words, but the manner with which he said them. There was just something calm and reassuring about him when

    JULIEI usually wondered why he spent so much time and efforts trying to get me to date him. Max was everything a girl could ask for. He was handsome, well built, hot too, funny, kind and doing well financially. Working for Adam alone was a big deal and not a lot of girls would reject dating a guy working at Jones Group.I enjoyed the compliments, but somehow, I wished he stopped them. I didn’t want to give him the idea that there was still a chance for him.“Well… I appreciate the compliments. At least, something to make me smile”“You’ve been frowning all day?” He asked as he took a seat.“Not really. Just not been so active today”“Oh, what’s the problem? What are you working on?” He peeped into my laptop.“It’s just basic stuff. I’m going through some things on the internet to see if I could get some ideas on this invasion stuff” I replied tiredly.“Well… I would have helped out, but right now, all I want to do is chill. My brain is in a curfew and I wouldn’t be able to tell my le

    JULIEI had to get off from work early that day to do some urgent shopping. I got over my conversation with Max and needed to do something else to take my conscience off what I had just to the poor guy.The wedding invitation from Adam was so impromptu and I needed to go get some new dresses for the day. I couldn’t be the least dressed at the event. Apart from being introduced as Adam’s date, I also had to put up a great impression as the creative head of the fashion wing of Jones Group. It would be kinda disappointing that I showed up in classless outfits. If that happened again, even I wouldn’t blame Adam for being ashamed of me at the event.Before rounding up for work, I had to call Lisa. She had been dying to go shopping with me for a long time. “Julie, We need to go shopping one of these days. You dress boring” She usually teased me.Though it wasn’t really a tease, because it was true to an extent.I was particularly happy because that day was one of her work-free days. The

    JULIELauren’s Fashion House was one of the most popular boutiques in London. I had applied for a job there sometime in the past, but I was rejected, sadly.They mostly had female dresses, shoes, handbags, jewelries and all that, but recently they became inclusive even with kids’ wears.Lisa had suggested there, because she claimed to know the owner. Prior to that day, I had never been there. I barely shopped for new outfits, except it was for Bryan, so I was really pumped for it.I got to Lauren’s and brought the car to a halt. I looked out the window to see if I could catch a glimpse of Lisa, but she was nowhere to be seen.“That’s a relief. I would be the one to taunt her for showing up late this time around” I smiled.As I got out of the car, a red mini truck speedily drove past and almost hit me. I felt my heartbeat skip for a minute as I tried to process what just happened.I came back to reality and cussed out.“You’re such an asshole. You almost hit me, you fool!” I yelled at

    ADAMI got Max and Samantha fired the next morning without thinking twice about it. Unlike Max that tried to make an appeal, Samantha was very proud of the act and showed no remorse about it. I sent them both away and threatened to get them arrested if I ever saw them around the company.The past weeks had been a roller coaster for me. First, it was me thinking Julie had betrayed me, and sending her away. Then, it was Max, someone I regarded as one of my closest friends.I wasn’t surprised about Samantha being the mastermind of it. She hated Julie with everything in her and never failed to show it at the slightest chance she got. But, Max? He was way too close to Julie; her closest friend in the office. I never expected such from him.I didn’t know how to approach Julie with everything that had happened the past days. I mean, I sent her away for the second time without even hearing her out. That was so cruel of me.I tried calling her, but her line wasn’t reachable. I had to go see he

    ADAM“I have no intentions of hurting you, Adam”When Julie came back, I did nothing but take her in with good cheer. I never knew all along, the plan was to get back at me because of what happened between us six years ago.I spent days brooding over what the one person I loved so much did to me. The betrayal pierced so deep into my heart that I couldn’t get over it. I tried so hard not to believe it was true. I so wanted to to be all a joke or prank.With how innocent she looked, one would hardly suspect she had such an evil intention towards me.I mean, we already bonded so deeply and I was planning on moving her and Bryan to a more befitting apartment close to me, until she was mentally ready to move in fully with me.My major worry was Bryan. It had been over two weeks Julie left and I couldn’t reach her again. A part of me strongly doubted if Bryan was really my son like she said, or if it was all part of her lies to get closer to me, to execute what she had in mind all along.I

    JULIE“You have broken the trust I had for you, Julie. Goodbye”Adam’s word kept ringing in my head as the days went by. I tried but just couldn't get over it.I tried to recall everything that happened that fateful day. It was just so fast and scripted perfectly that I didn’t even have the chance to think about what was happening around me.Adam didn’t give me a listening ear either. It was like he was under a spell or hypnosis. The evidence was there; it was their world against mine. I was unknowingly with an official document of the company, which shouldn’t even be in my possession in the first place.I wasn’t given the chance to explain myself, which made me disappointed in Adam. I was sure he thought of me as evil and didn’t want anything to do with me again,The look of betrayal on his face said it all and it took a lot of self-control from him not to get me arrested at that point. Rather, he sent me away again.“Who could have been behind this?” I asked myself.Only Samantha ca

    JULIEIt had been two months since things got completely rosy between Adam and I. Two months since he finally introduced himself to Bryan as his father.Things have been going so smoothly ever since. I usually sent Bryan off to his place to go spend some weekends. Sometimes, at Adam’s request, others, just because I wanted to have some “Me” time without Bryan’s problems.Soon, we came to an agreement that Bryan would be spending the weekends at his place, when Adam would be free enough to relate well with him. I also went over to see him when I could and he never failed to have sex with me whenever I was at his place.Things were finally back to normal, as I always wished for. Everything seemed to be going well. Samantha no longer threw herself at Adam. Seemed she had swallowed the bitter pill at last.I was supposed to meet with Max and a certain client at a hotel lounge, with a sealed document Max gave to me the previous day at the office. According to him, the document was for a bu

    ADAMIt had been a week since father visited me in my office, seeking to be in the know of what was happening between Samantha and I. He left the office in utter shock after I had told him I had a baby child with Julie.All those years, just like me, he thought that Julie got rid of the pregnancy like I had commanded her to. He had nothing else to do at that point; there was no other way he could help Samantha talk to me, because my mind was already made up.As soon as I got to work the next day, I angrily sped off to Samantha’s office to confront her about what just happened.“How dare you try to involve my father in my personal life? What gave you the guts to do that?!” I thundered at her.She fidgeted, as she had never seen me in such mood before. She tried to calm me, but I wasn’t having any of that.It wasn’t enough that she kept on forcing herself on me, she also had to drag my dad into something he had no business with. That was way out of line.“I know everything. He told me.

    ADAMIt had been a week since I had the most mind-blowing sex in a while. A week since I got to spend quality time with the woman I loved dearly. Also a week since Julie told me that Bryan was my seed- a result of one of the numerous sex we had when we were still together six years ago.The news was the best thing my ears ever heard in years. Not even the launch of the fashion brand could rival the joy the knowledge of Bryan being my son, brought me.Everything seemed brand new to me ever since I got the news. I smiled more as my happiness knew no bounds.For so long, I always imagined what it would be like, having my own son, whom I’d give everything he ever wanted. The fact that Bryan was one smart kid, warmed my heart the more.“He’ll go on vacations in any country of his choice” I thought to myself.“I think I should get him a car and a driver who would be taking him anywhere he wants to go to” I thought again.“No, that would be too much” I disputed.“Nah! Nothing is ever too m

    JULIEI just had the best sex of my life and instead of feeling used and disgusted at myself, I felt satisfaction like never before. Prior to that day, I never realized how much I needed the orgasm that came from a session of intense sex.It was as as if my whole body had a total revamp; like every organ got changed and became brand new. I had goosebumps all over me for a long time as I laid on the bed with Adam.My legs were still feeling shaky from the climax it just went through and my pussy felt sore. I didn’t care. I had gotten the satisfaction I needed and I was open to more, regardless of how tired I was.I never planned to have sex with Adam. It was never my intentions to get intimate with him. The plan was to go to the wedding with him, spend some time, dance, then get home to have my rest. But the incident with Max which changed my mood, got me craving something to ease myself of the mood swing and sex was just the perfect fit to my puzzle.Adam, on the other hand, panted he

    JULIEThe ride back to Adam’s place was a calm one. As I sat next to him at the passenger seat, I couldn’t help but have a feeling of relaxation all over me. Just like at the wedding, a soft melodic romantic song was drifting from the car speakers and this made the atmosphere even more serene.He stared down at me and touched my face calmly, while I snuggled up into his warm embrace. With his arms around me, I felt nothing but safe.Justin was focused on his driving and constant humming to the music. It was like the classic romance movies I grew up watching, only that this time, I was the main character in it.“How are you feeling now?” Adam’s deep sensual voice calmly pierced into my ears.“I’m feeling a bit better. If we could stay in this position longer, I might feel completely better” I said and giggled.“You are permitted to stay for a long as you want” He rubbed my shoulders with his palms.“I’m sorry I had to make you leave the wedding earlier” I apologized.“It’s fine, Julie.

    JULIE“Hi, Max” I managed to say.I looked at him and looked away almost immediately. I was so ashamed to look at Max for long. He faked a smile, but I knew that deep down, the smile meant nothing but the feeling of being betrayed and disgust for me.Adam stared at me as I acted weird. I was sure he expected me to be all happy seeing Max, but my countenance was just the direct opposite.“Is everything okay? You both are acting very awkward right now, like you just saw a ghost. Or, did you?” Adam asked, looking around in search of the presumed ghost.“Hahaha! I’m sure she’s just too tired, or maybe she never expected to see me here” Max responded, still smiling at me.As his smile grew wide, all I could see was a broken man, masking it with laughter. I had to cheer up to avoid any further interrogations from Adam.“Yeah. That might be the reason, I guess” Adam nudged my shoulder.“I never knew you’d be coming along with her, though. I expected you’d be here alone” Max continued.“Well…
