"As your boss, I am allowed to assign roles to you whether they were spelt out in the contract or not. So tonight, as your boss, I want you to be my date. Take it as an official responsibility from your boss." concluded Henry."Unbelievable!" Eve said and sprung to her feet. "So now you are going to manipulate me?"Henry finally sat. "It's just business Eve and you must comply." he smiled and blinked at her. "I must comply? You must be kidding." She disagreed and smirked.Henry smiled, taunting her the more. "I'm not joking Miss Bloom. You are coming to the charity event with me tonight. You have no choice."."And what if I refused to be your date tonight? Will you force me?" demanded an angry Eve."You work for me. I give you orders and all you have to do is obey," replied Henry."And what about those women who declined your offer? Why won't you force them? Why are you forcing me instead?" Eve ranted."Those women aren't my personal assistants and above all, they signed no contract
Charity pulled out two dresses from her fashion bag. She stationed it on the table. Eve flashed her astonishing eyes on them."Red or black?""What?" Eve asked with an arched brow."Which do you prefer? A red dress or a blue one?" Charity asked and swept the glossy gowns off the table.Eve sighed. "Anyone will do." She wasn't interested in going to the event anyway so Charity should better hurry up with the so-called transformation.Charity moved to Eve's right. "A lot of ladies will kill to be Henry's date and you are here acting all frigid?"Even turned away and mumbled. "A lot of them would have gone if there was no chlamydia tweet.""Did you say something?"Eve faced Charity with a fake smile stretching the corners of her mouth. "Nothing. Just get me the red dress."Charity motioned with her head to her girls to come close. The tallest placed the make-up kit on Eve's desk after shoving the files aside."Before we begin your make-up? I'll need you to try the dress on." Charity said
At that point, Henry wanted to grab her face and kiss the hell out of her or maybe slip his hand through the opening on her dress. He heaved a deep sigh and turned away.The driver pulled the car to a halt by the entrance of the museum. He rushed out to get the car door but met Henry standing outside. He was holding up the car door for Eve to step out. She carefully alighted and took his hand. They stepped into the museum hand in hand.Immediately they walked in, Eve was charmed by the artefacts on display. She rolled her eyes around the paintings before taking proper glances at the people. Most people stood in twos, the ladies elegantly dressed and the men looked smart. Bartenders and waitresses loitered with small trays carrying glasses of wine.Henry led Eve to meet a group of people. They were business moguls. She greeted them with a smile. They then grabbed a glass of wine each and moved to the table reserved for Henry. They sat next to each other. The host, a young man in his
Henry hurriedly took off his jacket and dumped it beside Eve on the bed. Before he could blink, she was tearing off the buttons on his white cotton shirt. He looked into her eyes. Eve was burning with desire for him. Henry wanted her as much as she desired him. He craved for her so badly from the moment he cast his gaze on her when she walked out of that office to the reception before they left for the charity art event. Every glance he fixed on her at that event turned him on. He had been fighting the urge to resist her for so long but now, he just wanted to fuck the hell out of her.Eve finally took off his shirt and ran her fingers on his bare chest. She was kneeling on the bed, facing him. He was kneeling too. He squeezed her left breast and she gasped in pleasure. She immersed him in a passionate hug and tugged her hands into his bare skin.Henry broke off their embrace and dipped his hand into her thighs. He pulled off her black thong. He was about to pull his hand out of her t
"We have to stop this madness Henry," she added. Henry agreed with a nod."I'm very sorry. I led you on," he said Even though he had doubts whether he actually led her on. She was the one that pulled him to the bed when he wanted to leave. She was the one who tore the buttons off his shirt and pulled out the belt around his trousers. "I can't go on living like this." Eve continued. Tears were still rolling down her cheeks. "You are married." she reminded him.Henry turned away and swallowed some air."I'm tired of this pointless sex affair." she spat.Did she just say sex affair? Henry wondered. He hated the way those tears kept rolling down her cheeks. He wanted to pull her to his chest and stroke her till she stopped crying."I'm sorry," Henry said. His voice rang with empathy.Eve resolved to wipe her tears. "I want us to end this once and for all. I don't want to be a home-wrecker and I will never be comfortable being a sidepiece.Henry sighed and moved closer to her. He held her
Eve loitered around Henry's door for about two minutes before finally knocking on the office door. Stacy kept staring at her from her spot in astonishment."Come in," Henry responded from the inside.Eve heaved a deep sigh and gave the door a slight push. She walked into the office and stood a few meters away from Henry's desk."Good morning sir," she mumbled and fixed her gaze on the floor.Henry's blue jacket was wrapped around his chair. He shut the file before him and tossed it to the side. He cleared his throat loudly. Eve lifted her head and caught his disappearing smile."You sent for me sir," she told him.Henry agreed with a repeated nod and rolled his eyes all over her. Eve wondered why his eyes were lagging around her chest. In her quest to redeem herself from the sexual affair, she had planned on working on the outfits she'll be wearing to work henceforth. She was dressed in a green maxi gown that morning.Henry pulled out a little brown envelope from one of his desk cabin
Eve crossed her legs. "You think I'm scared of going to a club? Do I have to remind you where you and I met?" Henry turned away. Eve went on. "I don't need you to look out for me. The thing is I don't feel like going to a club tonight."Henry sighed and placed both his hands on his waist. "I need to sign that deal Eve. This company needs Leonard. I don't know why the man wants you there but I'll appreciate it if you agree to the offer." He explained. "For the company's sake," he added."Fine."Henry smiled halfway. That was quick he thought. "So you'll be there right? 8 Pm sharp.""Noted," Eve replied with a nod."So I'll drop by at your house let's say at 7 30 to pick you up.""No." Eve countered. "Where are we meeting the man?""His bar. Leo BARRYS." Henry replied."I know that spot. I'll be there." Eve said."Good. Don't forget. 8 pm sharp so we have to be there on time. We can't keep Leonard waiting. We must....""It's okay boss. Chill. I know what to do." Ever said and lifted he
"What the hell is going on here?" asked a confused Henry. His gaze fell on Leonard who was still on the floor on his butt.Leonard abruptly stood up and brushed off the back of his black trousers with his hands.Eve was by the corner, her head lowered with a tightened jaw. She was burning with rage. She wasn't going to sit tight and allow that bastard to tuck his hand into her thighs."You didn't tell me the lady you brought was a whore." Leonard accused. He smirked. "Eve or whatever you call her is nothing but a slut."Eve lifted her head and saw Leonard pointing a finger at her. Her eyes widened in shock. What was Leonard driving at and did he just call her a whore?"A whore?" Henry asked with a quirked brow. Why would Leonard suddenly call Eve a whore? he wondered."Not just a whore but an abuser. Didn't you see the way she assaulted me? She pushed me. She just assaulted me Henry" Leonard claimed and turned to look at the spot he has earlier fallen on.Eve gasped. "Assault you? Are
