Chapter 1: Not So Sweet Boss

It was a rainy Monday morning in bustling New York. Chloe was leaning on the coffee table, with distant thoughts, with her long legs crossed, waiting for the coffee to be ready. Wearing a black tube dress and high heels, she was internally getting ready for another busy week at Bailey's Industries. "So, what's wrong with you today? Overthinking again?" Brianna asked before she sat on a chair in front her friend."No... Hm... Maybe, yes." Chloe smoothed her long brown hair while she sat calmly. "I was thinking about my life. Nothing new.""Nothing new for sure!" Brianna mocked. "Oh, did I tell you the last news?""No, what is it?" Chloe got up and checked her clothes on the mirror. "Our handsome boss said he won't be attending the Opening of St. Clair Hospital in Chicago because he has a lot of business to deal with here. How come? He is the guest of honor!" Brianna sounded shocked."Really? I didn't know that. Did he tell you this?" Chloe was surprised."Not really. He was talki...

Chapter 2: Even a God Is Dumped
"Good morning!" Brianna said, entering the Coffee Room on the next day. "I didn't know I would find you this early here today!"She washed her hands and glanced at Chloe, who was not answering her. "Are you ok?" Brianna asked worriedly."I'm fine." Chloe answered for the first time. "I just didn't sleep. That devil we call boss made me lose one night of sleep!"She had her head down on the table and an empty mug in her left hand. "Oh, really? So it's true what they say?" Brianna sounded interested."What are you talking about?" she turned her head into Brianna's direction."Our icy God… He was dumped by his fiancée!" "WHAT?" Chloe jumped off the chair, taken by surprise."Are you kidding, right?" the brunette was discredited. "How come?""You didn't know that? So why you didn't sleep at night?" Brianna became thoughtful."I'm going to present the meeting in 2 hours. To all the shareholders.""No way!" the blonde woman was very surprised. "I've never seen a PA presents this kind of m

I have a reservation in the name of Evan Bailey." she said trying to sound calm.The man leaded the way to a private room, where her boss was waiting for her. At each step taken her nervousness was increasing."Good evening." she said shamefully."Good evening, Ms. Rodriguez." Mr. Bailey said while he stood up on his feet.He brazenly assessed the woman from head to toe, which made Chloe embarrassed.The maître of the restaurant pulled out the chair for her to sit."Oh, thank you!"

The kiss that kept Chloe awake during all night. She was not sure about his true intentions. After one year working for him, that was the first time Mr. Bailey crossed the line. Did he do that just to push Chloe to accept the deal?How could she look at him from now on without thinking about those lips?Already inside the elevator, Chloe made the to-do list on her mind, as always. She decided she wouldn't think about what happened with Mr. Bailey last night. That was a misunderstanding. He was out of his mind for sure."Good morning!" Chloe said when she passed through the Coffee Room's door."What are you doing here?" Brianna asked with a surprised face."Lovely in the morning, huh?" the brunette mocked."No, you got it wrong! I'm sorry." Brianna was working on the coffee machine. "I just thought you would n

"Take it." Brianna gave a glass of water to Chloe and sat in front of her friend."Thanks" the brown-haired woman just said."What happened?" Brianna was worried. She had never seen her friend like that."I know why he's giving all my duties to you. He didn't give me a free day."After a long pause, Chloe looked at her friend. "It's punishment.""Punishment? How come?" Brianna looked confused."He offered me a deal… and I didn't accept it." Chloe had her head down, feeling embarrassed."What kind of deal, Chloe?"Brianna couldn't imagine what her friend was about to tell her next."He wants to marry me. It would be a one year contract marriage.""Oh, f**k! And in exchange?""One million dollars." Chloe simply said, looking at her friend.Brianna widened her eyes even more, as if it was possible. Her mouth was half-open in surprise."Insane!" that was the only word that came out of Brianna's mouth."Yeah, I know." Chloe said, sadly. "What kind of girl does he take me for?"After a few s

Chapter 8: There is No Choice
"What's this, Chloe?" Mr. Bailey asked angrily.He was seated imposingly in his chair. His questioning eyes were on her.Chloe kept her expression indifferent, as if she was determined to do that. She was standing on her feet, in front of his desk."It's my resignation letter. I quit." She simply said, keeping her eyes on his."Are you f**king kidding me?" he was really mad. Mr. Bailey got up and started to walk around the room. Chloe was quiet, still in the same position."Why?" he had a dry tone. "Who do you think you are?"Suddenly Mr. Bailey was right behind her, talking low in her ear. "I won't let you quit." He was clearly trying to control his anger. Chloe trembled."I don't wanna work here anymore." she tried to remain confident."Are you doing it because of the proposal?" he glanced at her.Mr. Bailey was now in front of her, holding her shoulders. As she didn't answered his question, he shook her and asked again:"Why don't you just accept it? It's easy money! After one yea

She was tired of doing nothing at the office. It felt like a waste of time for her being there. While Brianna was freaking out overworked, Chloe was playing cards online."Good morning, Mr. Bailey." She said, with her head down."Is there a problem, Ms. Rodriguez?" he asked cautiously, analyzing her moves.Mr. Bailey saw her earlier that day in the Coffee Room. She looked sad and bored.

"Look at me." he ordered calmly.Chloe looked up at his eyes without saying a word.

"Oh my God, I can't believe we're actually here!" Brianna was ecstatic in front of the imposing facade of the nightclub."Yeah, neither am I…" Chloe said faintly.She was not feeling comfortable with those high heels and that short black dress. "Let's have fun tonight!" Brianna was way too excited.As they had special invitations, they didn't wait in line. Brianna went straight to the bar, ordering two Cosmopolitans."Do you know how much does it cost?" Chloe asked worried."I don't care! It's my first night out in years!" Brianna simply said and Chloe glanced at her with a half-smile.After minutes walking around the place, Chloe could feel the alcohol effect in her body. She was not drunk obviously, just happier. They were laughing and dancing when Brianna saw Tyler coming in their direction."Hey girls!" Tyler said with a broadly smile. "You came! Are you enjoying the place?""Of course! Is there a possibility to not have fun in a place like this?" Brianna joked and they laughed t
