Arriving at the Benson Group, Anita settles down in her transparent glass office and stares at Bambam, who also settles down and stares at her coldly.

Anita smirks, making Bambam stare away. They look so corporate and beautiful in their new vests, and she loves it.

Anita switches on her computer to start work focus, and just then she sees the elevator door open, and the handsome CEO steps out with his personal bodyguard walking behind him and holding his briefcase.

Liam dresses in a blue suit and black shoes, and Anita sees he isn't wearing the top given to them, while his bodyguard wore his usual black suit.

Anita stares away from Liam, as she has chosen to believe their kiss was a mistake. She stands up and stares downward as he approaches her office. She hears the staff greet him, and as he nears her open glass office, he stares at her.

Anita can also feel Liam's burning gaze on her.

She raises her head up, meets his gaze, and greets him, "Good morning."

    Liam sits across from his two best friends, staring at his secretary's face. She looks breathtakingly beautiful. Now he realizes she's even cuter in her casual outfits than the oversized gown he implemented. Liam remembered the previous time he saw Anita with her sister over the weekend. She looked hot. He likes her, but he cannot confess his feelings to her. Liam shakes his head, eats his lunch quickly, and exits the cafe. He doesn't want to keep staring at them. As a lot of staff bought their lunch in takeaways and took it along with them, leaving the cafe. Done with his lunch, Liam stands up and sees Anita still conversing with Temisa. His fiancée has been staring at him since, but he looks away, and his secretary never looks back at him once, even though she knew he was there. Liam exits the cafeteria and walks out.

    Anita doesn't understand her boss. She stares at Liam's face and nods, "Okay, sir," and turns and exits his office. Liam keeps staring at Anita's slim, curvy waist; even her skirt didn't hide her shape and big buttocks. He slams his table hard and stands up in annoyance, as he has a lot to say to her. Liam wants to tell Anita the truth, but he can't say it. He feels sick and loses his concentration for the rest of the day. Still sitting on his office chair until closing, Liam finally switches off his computer and exits his office. He holds his briefcase and finally steps out. Liam has warned Tosin not to disturb him in the office until he's ready to leave for home. So, Tosin doesn't go to check on him and rather waits on the third floor with other guards until Liam is ready to leave. Liam steps out of his office and doesn't stare backwards at Anita's office. He walks out and exits the third floor, going back downstairs to the garage to exit the company building, as a lot of staff

    "Hello, excuse me, I was asking about your boss?" Oyinda Matthew raises her voice at Anita. Anita bites her lower lip and stares back at her computer as she realizes that the lady sitting across from her is a seductress. "I just told you that my boss isn't around," Anita says. Oyinda Matthew looks irritated, stands up, and walks out of Anita's office. Anita shakes her head as she watches Oyinda exit the third floor, walking into the elevator and out of her view. Just then her office line rings, and it's Mr. Taiye calling to find out about the last client he's waiting to see. "I'm sorry, sir, but she left, insisting on meeting with Liam directly." "Oh! Okay," Mr. Taiye exclaims, understanding Anita. "It's alright then," he says, ending the call and wrapping up all he's doing in Liam's office. His son doesn't work much, and Mr. Taiye looks around the office for a while. He stands up, exits the office after ensuring everything is intact, then switches off the computer and walks o

    Liam is in the family mansion, in his personal sitting room, while Cynthia is busy questioning him with a series of questions as to why he hadn't stepped out since the morning. "Uncle, are you sick?" Cynthia asks as she stands in front of him, staring at his face, seemingly older than him, and waiting for his answer. "I'm fine, Cynthia. Leave me alone!" Liam scolds Cynthia away in a harsh tone, and she frowns, making him panic as he doesn't want any disturbance from her mother or his mother. "What's wrong?" Liam asks Cynthia, and she looks away from him and walks to the couch to pick up her little baby doll, not wanting to speak to him again. "Cynthia!" Liam calls her back, but she doesn't respond, and he knows she's stubborn. Cynthia avoids looking at Liam and walks to the exit door before he stands up and stretches. "Fine, let's go out and buy ice cream," he says, and she finally turns to face him. "Really?" Her face lights up with joy, and she runs back to meet him, holding h

    "No, father. I mean, there's no need for that," Liam responds to his father and stares away, while Mr. Taiye smiles. "I see you like your secretary, my son. Do you prefer her to Mr. John's daughter as your wife?" Liam stiffens and looks back at his father in shock. He stammers, "No, dad. I mean, why are you asking me this question? Anita is just my secretary, and I don't have anything to do with her." "Hmm..." Mr. Taiye hums and stands up. "And you expect me to believe that, Liam? It's alright. If you say you don't like Anita, then I will have her transferred to the Blues Company. Mr. Tunji Martin spoke to me about the need for a new accounting manager, and Anita will fit into that position as a perfect business administrator for them." "No, father, you cannot do that!" Liam's eyes are slightly narrow, and Mr. Taiye laughs. "What changes, Liam? Remember, Anita graduated with a first-class upper, and she isn't supposed to be your mere secretary. Mr. Tunji Martin has spoken to me abou

Felicia asks him, staring into his dark, handsome face again. "I have. We will go to see them after we welcome our baby, okay?" Martin cups Felicia's face closely and stands up first. "Come, let us go inside to rest," he says as he walks with Felicia into their bedroom, and they both retire to the bed they share to sleep. Meanwhile, Anita doesn't sleep properly on her bed, almost falling off and hanging by the edge. Mrs. Tonia steps into Anita's room and sees Anita sleeping on the edge of the bed and in her office clothes. Mrs. Tonia had asked Esther to wash the previous vest Anita wore to work the day before.

    Anita gets really nervous standing there, wondering if Liam or his father are the ones in the office. She swallows and stares downward as Brown continues to attend to the client.

She doesn't want to lose her job yet, and she doesn't even know what the boss or his father is asking Brown about. Brown puts down the phone and looks at Anita as he stands up to leave her office. "You can resume from where I left off, but don't come to work at this time next time." "Okay."

This is the new secretary, Miss Ella James. The senior boss asked me to introduce her to you," Joel says to Liam, and Liam's brows furrow at Joel, causing Joel to look confused. "Sir..." Joel stammers, not hearing Liam's response. "You can leave with her," Liam finally replies to Joel, causing Joel's jaw to drop. "But, sir, the senior boss said I should introduce Miss Ella to you and let your secretary know about her so as to make her work easier by Monday." "I said leave! Or are you both deaf?" Liam thunders, startling the young lady. She immediately runs out with Joel. Anita was just returning from the ca

They finally stand up, and Temisa walks over to see the twin babies in their little baby bed in the living room."Wow, they look so much like Liam, but my baby resembles me more than Alfred," Temisa says, while Anita only smiles at her."It's all good, girlfriend.

Let me search for her first.""Okay, I will," Temisa replies as she sits up properly."What about Alfred?" Liam finally asks her as he sees her sit up."He's not yet home. You know he runs the hotels and club too, cheating on me," Temisa pouts."He's not. He complains about you starving him," Liam tells her, and Temisa gasps."He said that? I know Alfred is so shameless," Temisa replies, and just then Alfred returns and walks into their room, as they both use one room together.
