Kristoff blinked at Eve and she smiled.

"Well, we can have the meeting right now in my office since it's going to be brief anyway," Henry suggested.

"Of course." Kristoff agreed.

"I'll leave you two now," Eve said and was about to leave when Kristoff called her back.

"Can I get your phone number? I enjoyed talking to you. We can fix a time. Anytime you are comfortable so we can hang out and maybe hit Denver's spot." Eve smiled and Kristoff went on. "Maybe we can have dinner there and if any of us chokes on the pork, he'll be free to gulp directly from the bottle."

They both broke into a laugh. "My phone is in my office so I'll give you ....."

"No Eve. You are not giving Kristoff your phone number." Henry spat. Eve was taken aback by the comment.

Henry faced Kristoff. "You should be ashamed of yourself." Kristoff lowered his head. "Are you here to seal a deal or flirt with my assistant?"

Kristoff sighed. "I'm sorry Mr Richard. It's not what you think. I..."

Henry interrupted. "Eve wi

    "Your boss isn't loosening up right?" Eve said.Olivia nodded. "All he does is complain about all we do. The whole job is getting frustrating.""Give him more time. He's obviously new and would want to show you guys how much of a strict man he is. He will come around." Eve replied.Olivia shook her head. "That man is a perfectionist Eve. It's been three whole months and he is still the same. He thinks we are robots or what? Damn, I miss Mr. Charlie. He was a pain in the ass I agree but he was way cooler.""You'll never know the value of what you have until you lose it.""If I had another option, I would have left the factory a long time ago," Olivia said.Throughout the whole period that Olivia was speaking, Eve's entire attention was fixed on the door to her bedroom."I'm sure you haven't had breakfast. Maybe you could go down to the store and get us some fresh cookies. I'll fix tea." Eve suggested."No thanks. I'm not hungry. You can go get the cookies yourself. I'll just sit here."

    "I thought it ended that night but, I can't just control myself when I'm around her Dane. I can't remember the last time I made love to a woman with so much passion," said Henry."Now you are saying too much," Dane said."You won't believe I spent the night in her house." Henry disclosed."What? How could you do that?" Dane whisper yelled"We made love for hours. Was I supposed to leave in the middle of the night?" "Judging by the circumstance, you should have left.""But I didn't want to leave her in that bed Dane. I wanted to cuddle and kiss her. I want her body so close to mine. I want her to run her fingers through my body and stroke me..""Boss!" Dane yelled.Henry lowered his gaze and cleared his throat."You remember what you told me the other day?""What? Tell me what I told you, Dane.""You said, Eve will never be your bed again and now, you are the one in her bed," Dane said."Shut up Dane." Henry retorted.Dane smiled. Eve knocked on the door and Henry invited her in. Dane

"Besides, Eve is just a week old in the company and you expect her to dig out things immediately?"Eve cleared her throat and appreciated Anna with a nod. She continued speaking. "It appears that Mr. Richard's wife doesn't live in the city. I've never seen her visit him even once and even though we can't just conclude yet, I'll need more time to prove

    Monday morning, Eve was seated in Henry's office, waiting for him to arrive. She was shocked when Stacy informed her that there were no scheduled meetings but just documents Henry was to review that morning.Henry walked into the office wearing a brown suit that hugged him tightly. Eve lowered her head and mumbled a "Good morning" when he walked in."Morning Eve." he dropped the suitcase on his table and sat. Eve slowly lifted her head and saw his physically built chest.

"No meetings or appointments today right?""Yes sir.""Today is an auspicious day.

    "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

    "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.
