"Can you please tell me why you don't want to be Mr Richard's date for tonight's function?" implored Eve immediately they got out.The lady sighed and pulled out her phone. "Chlamydia is trending on Twitter at this moment.""Chlamydia? How is that infection related to what we are talking about?" Eve looked at her in amazement."It seems like you know nothing about this. " The lady sighed and continued. "The chlamydia tweet is associated with Mr. Richard. The women who tweeted it are implying that Mr Richard gave them the infection and now the tweet is going viral on Twitter." she disclosed.Eve was taken aback. "What did those women do?" she muttered. Her mind immediately wandered to the hate club."Didn't you hear about it? The news has gone round the office and we even thought Mr. Richard is aware .""I didn't know about it and I don't think Mr. Richard knows about it too. I haven't gone through my phone since morning.""Well, it's viral now and whether it's a rumour or not, I would

“Those of us who retweeted the statement didn't come in contact with Henry at the restaurant the other day. Yes, he might identify us later on but how would he know we are linked with you?" The lady responded.Eve sighed and typed. "I must commend you guys for a job well done. I mean, the plan was well thought and perfectly executed."Some of the women online began to reply and send voice notes.'Don't worry Eve. We got you covered.''Henry won't know you are part of this.''Just stay calm and keep doing your job. We will ensure that bastard trends throughout today for no good reason."Eve sighed and turned off her mobile data. It was time to face Henry. She went to the bathroom, took deep breaths, washed her face and marched to Henry's office confidently.She walked into the office and met Henry relaxing on his chair like a god. His legs were crossed and his back was resting on the seat."You took so long Eve. Was picking a date for me such a hard task to do?" Henry asked."Well, it

Henry grabbed his phone and went through the tweets once again. He was boiling with rage at the way some Twitter users were tagging and dragging him."Bloody women. I swear I'll get back to you all," he swore. He dropped the phone on his table, tightened his feast and punched the wall repeatedly.He took deep breaths and went for his phone. He then dialled Dane's number. He called Dane twice but Dane didn't pick up the call. He was starting to grow impatient and Dane called back."Hello Boss, I was speaking to...""I need you in my office right now," Henry ordered and hung up without giving Dane the chance to speak.A few minutes later, Dane rushed into Henry's office. "What's the matter, boss? You scared me." Dane said and looked around the office."Why weren't you picking up my calls?" Henry asked."Sorry, I missed your calls. I was tackling an issue with the guards at the gate.""Have you seen the news on Twitter?" Henry demanded.Dane sat on the sofa. "Twitter? What twitter?" he

"Derrick!" Dane began with both hands on the table. "I trust you and I want you to get to the bottom of this. All these tweets are lies. The people behind it are after Mr Richard's reputation and yes we will get the Public Relations manager to do his part but I want you to dig up the handles that initiated those tweets and possibly trace them."Derrick nodded in understanding. "I know what to do boss.""Get to work and be fast about it. We need results." Henry directed."I'll do my best and get back to you as soon as possible," Derrick said and left the men.Dane turned to Henry. "Don't you worry about it boss, Derrick will fish out the culprits and the Public Relations Manager knows what to do. I'll see to it and trust me, soonest, the rumours will go away."Henry sighed in relief. "Are you sure about this Dane?Dane smiled at him. " I understand how you feel boss. Your reputation is at stake but trusts me, not everyone is going to believe those tweets. Judging by your position and i

When Eve returned to her office, she heaved a deep sigh and thanked God she was able to stand her ground before Henry. She quickly called Olivia."Henry confronted me" she whispered, trying to catch her breath immediately Olivia picked up the call."I knew he was going to suspect you. What did you tell him?" asked an impatient Olivia."Trust me, girl, I acted like I knew nothing about it. He tried to pin it on my girls but I disagreed. I told him that the group died the day I signed that contract." reported Eve."That's a good move girl. ""I stood my ground and even acted pissed when he started screaming at me," Eve said.Olivia was already screaming in excitement. "That's good of you Eve. I love how you handled the situation. You are so smart.""He was looking straight into my eyes and I held up his stare and argued my way out of the situation." Eve boasted."Are you for real girl?""Oh trust me, Olivia. I was such a drama queen earlier. I even walked out on him.""You walked out on

"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

"I never thought you would show up!" Dane remarked the moment Olivia slapped her purse on the round table. "We are talking about preparations for my best friend's wedding here. I wouldn't mind seeing your annoying face." She replied and sat opposite him. Dane chuckled and crossed his legs. Henry and Eve broke the news of their engagement to them a week ago. Dane was to serve as Henry's best man while Olivia, was the chief bridesmaid. It's two weeks to the wedding and preparations were already heating up. Dane had invited Olivia that evening to the cafe so they could review their plans for the wedding. "Do you want anything?" He asked and pointed to the menu card. Olivia waved her hand down. "I'm good." Dane reclined on the chair. "You'll rather starve than have a drink with me don't you?" She broke into a laugh and grabbed the menu card. "You know what Dane? You have a way of cracking me up even when I'm being a tough girl." He sat up and blinked at her. "Maybe I was created

"So what's your plan? Staying all day in bed without a job till you have the baby?' Mrs Bloom raised her voice at Eve.Eve was sprawled on the bed, facing her phone. She was having a video call with her mother."Eve, if you don't want to get a job then at least you can tell Henry about the baby. He should have thought about his marriage before putting the baby there.""Come on mom!'"I'm serious, Eve. Child support is necessary. Meanwhile, I'm not happy with the fact that you planned to raise this baby alone. I didn't raise you alone so my grandbaby deserves a father." Mrs Bloom went on ranting.Eve sighed and stroked her forehead. "I have enough funds in my savings account that can cater for the baby so you don't have to worry about that and about speaking to Henry, I'll do that when the time is right.""You better do so.""Have you told dad about it?"Mrs Bloom arched a brow. "Didn't you say you'll do that yourself?"Eve gave repeated nods. "I'll come home mom and I'll tell him ever

Dane pulled his sports car to a halt at the entrance to the parking lot and quickly stepped out."This better be good." He muttered under his breath and charged toward Olivia who was standing under a lemon tree, a few meters away from the park entrance.It was a few minutes past 6 pm and about fifteen minutes earlier, Olivia had called Dane and asked her to meet with him, stating that they needed to speak urgently.He got to the spot she was standing and instantly flashed a smile at her. Why the hell was he grinning like a clown Olivia wondered and quickly turned away after a smirk.Dane cleared his throat loudly and gave his forehead a delicate scrape. He was not the kind of man who was used to putting his perfect set of dentition on display and he couldn't tell why he got excited and had to smile at the sight of Olivia.Olivia adjusted the leather bag hanging around her left arm and began taking steps toward Dane. He remained rooted to his spot and felt like the ground was going to

Eve took sluggish steps toward the door. She had been avoiding them for quite a long time and she knew that the sooner she faced them, the better for her sanity.She stood by the door for several seconds and tried to keep her breath in check. She didn't see who was banging on her door but she could bet that it was either Olivia or Jen.After exhaling twice, she opened the door and saw the ladies standing outside. She flashed a quick smile at them and before she could usher them into the house, they flew in.She slammed the door behind her and turned to face their inquisitive faces. They were both folding their arms across their chests and staring at her like an owl."And why the hell was your phone off for two days?" Olivia flung the question at her.Eve sighed and moved to the twin couch."Some ladies from your hate club had been blowing up my phone. I don't even know why I gave them my phone number in the first place." Jen lamented.She moved to the couch and settled next to Eve by

Eve was glad that she had spoken to her mother. She was feeling a bit relieved and was glad that her mother didn't judge or condemn her. Mrs Bloom was sensitive enough to realize that at that moment, Eve needed all the support and comfort she could get.*****"I'm so happy to see you!" Phil declared and almost pulled her to the floor because he had immersed her in a tight hug. Eve smiled and hugged him. If she had her way, she would have pulled him away because she woke up that morning feeling edgy. She attributed the sudden feeling to pregnancy hormones."I never thought you would show up today," Phil commented after they broke off the embrace. "You need rest Eve. You can count on me to handle things while you are recuperating. Remember, health is wealth." Eve gave a warm smile and folded her arms across her chest. Who would have thought that she could get along with Phil? Two weeks ago, they could barely stand each other."Thank you so much, Phil." She replied. She was going to mi

Eve shut her eyes and opened them immediately. Just when she thought that she was hallucinating, she realized that the doctor was still standing by her bed.He kept the file he was holding next to her on the bed and left after flashing a bright smile.Even grabbed the file with trembling hands and her gaze instantly fell on the result after she opened it. She shut the file after a gasp and quickly turned away.She was fucking pregnant!"Damn it!" She muttered under her breath and squeezed the bedsheet. Her head began to spin in circles. She was carrying Henry's baby. According to the report, the doctor handed it over to her, she was three weeks gone.Whether she was three weeks gone, a month or two months gone, it was certain as death that the baby she is carrying is Henry's.He was the only man she had been with and on countless occasions, they had been together without using protection even though there were times she took pills, there were a few times she skipped the pills.She th

The continuous ringing of Eve's phone caused her to open her heavy eyes.She picked up the call."Hey!""Hey, baby. How is my gorgeous damsel doing this morning?" came Darcy's voice.The statement didn't provoke a smile on her face and neither did her cheeks turn red. She was even shocked at her reaction."I'm doing great Darcy." She replied and rubbed her drowsy eyes with the edge of her left palm.Did she just say, Darcy? She cleared her throat loudly. "How are you doing babe?"The phone speaker filtered Darcy's chuckle. "I'm good. You are having a work-free day?"Eve arched a brow. "A work-free day? It's not weekend.""And you are still not at work?"Eve glanced at the wall clock hanging above her. Her eyes widened in horror."Jeez!" She screamed. It was a few minutes to 9 am and she should have been at the office by now."I need to go now." She said and quickly hung up before Darcy could give a reply.She went through her phone and realised that the alarm she had set to awaken he

"Come in!" Henry responded from the inside and shut the file before him.Immediately after he lifted his head and realised that it was Eve who just walked into his office clinging to some documents, he lowered his head and opened the file he had shut earlier.She walked up to his desk. "Phil said you needed the transaction details of the cost of production for the week." She said without staring at him directly.He continued fiddling with the pages of the document before him. "And why didn't Phil obtain the document from the accounts department? Wasn't he the one I assigned the task to?" he asked without lifting his head.From that statement, Eve could tell that Henry wasn't expecting her and on the other hand, she didn't want to be in his office but she had to bring the report because Phil had a couple of other things to do."He's busy. You asked him to plan the annual meeting with the branch managers and also draft invitation letters." She reminded Henry.Lately, he had stopped assi

Eve cast her gaze to the entrance. She saw a man by the door lifting a phone to his face. Could he be her mystery man? She wondered and lowered the phone to her chest.Meanwhile, the man also lowered the phone to his chest and kept roving his eyes around the area."Pick the damn call!" Eve muttered under her breath and began taking strides toward the glass door.The man finally picked up the call and when he turned around, she froze.He placed his perfect set of dentition on display by flashing a bright smile. "You must be Eve?"She nodded repeatedly.He began taking steps toward her, maintaining the illuminating smile. He was devilishly handsome and was dressed in a gas-blue suit. Eve looked into his forest green eyes and darted her gaze to his expensive shoes. Olivia was right. The man was damn classy.When he got to Eve, he extended his right hand and ran his left hand through his blonde hair. "I'm Darcy."She remained rooted to her spot. She wondered whether she should smile, spea
