"I already told you there is nothing to talk about." She replied to him dismissively but he wasn't going to let her do that."Babe, are we doing this right now? I mean we are supposed to talk about everything but something is bothering you and you don't want to share? What actually happened when you found out that I knew Elizabeth?" He questioned her."It's really nothing." She denied again earning a scowl from Mr Smith in return."Fine." She sighed deeply. "I already told you the reason. Elizabeth respects you a lot and from the way she described you, I thought the both of you liked each other and when I found out you were the one she was referring to, I got worried. Worried that you might like her but haven't realised." She lamented.A smile formed on Mr Smith's face that made her worry. Her brows raised up slightly in a questioning manner as she looked at him. " Is there something on my face?" She asked him, touching her face to see if there was something."There's nothing on your

"Tomorrow is Monday." Victoria whispered to Mr Smith. "Yes, tomorrow is Monday but that won't stop me from holding you in my arms." He tells her."You do know we have to keep our relationship a secret right? I mean from everyone in the office?" Victoria tells him and in return Mr Smith brows raised in a questioning manner."Why is that so?" He asked her.She creased her brows. "Are you asking me? I mean do you think anyone would find it comfortable that I am dating my boss? What do you think people will say? I mean I wasn't even your girlfriend before and I got a lot of hate so imagine actually being your girlfriend?" She clarified for him but he didn't understand her reason."I do not remember having a rule that states no relationship at work and besides why should relationships be the people's problem? I mean I like you and you like me and we are together so what has the people got to do with it?" He questioned.She face palmed herself. "Are you seriously asking me this question? I

"Mrs Sinclair? Isn't she married?" Victoria asked Rebecca who sat down beside her.It was their lunch break and they had entered the same restaurant Mr Smith was having his business meeting. "Yes she is but her husband is old and grey so he doesn't do anything. She handles his business and he lets her." Rebecca informed her.Victoria's jaw dropped. "You mean this beautiful young woman I'm seeing is married to a man of ninety two? Doesn't he have any kids?" Victoria asked Rebecca.Rebecca clicked her tongue. "Yes he does have kids and he is married to her. But everyone knows she got married to him for his money. I mean she isn't up to age thirty yet, do you know that?" Rebecca brows raised up slightly."Oh my goodness. I'm shocked. So she handles his business, what about his children and what do they do?" Victoria asked frantically."Well it's easy. They also have their own share and do not care. He has two daughters and both of them run their own part of their fathers company. They h

"Come, let's talk in the car. Someone might recognise me." Mr Smith tells Victoria and she complied as she followed him to the car without uttering any words. Mr Smith opened the door for her, she entered and he closed the door then walked to the other side and got in."Now let's talk." He began as he stretched forward to hold her hands but she pulled her hands back as she folded it across her chest instead.Mr Smith sighed at her attitude but he continued. "I saw your text but was not in a good position to reply to it. I'm sorry." He said.Hearing him say sorry melted her heart. She had not thought about it from his perspective but hearing him talk about the reason for him not replying to her message, she felt bad."Well that's fine. I'm actually sorry too. I was being irrational." She apologized too."So that was it?" Mr Smith chuckled lightly."I didn't reply to your messages on time and so your reacted this much? I would never ignore your message anymore for too long." He tells h

Victoria leaned in and kissed Mr Smith on his lips the moment he parked his car outside of her apartment. "Thanks for bringing me home." She smiled at him showing off her pearly white teeth."Thanks for the food too." She added, still smiling.He caresses her cheek. "You are welcome. I will see you tomorrow." He tells her."Okay. Take care and drive safely." She tells him. "Wait." Mr Smith stopped her as she was about to open the door and leave the car. "What?" She asked, confused.Mr Smith got out of the car, walked to the other side and opened the door for her. She blushed as she came out of the car. "You didn't have to do that. It wasn't necessary." She tells him as he closes the door to the car."You are my queen, I have to treat you like one." He tells her as he pinches her cheek lightly."Thanks." She told him.Mr Smith leaned in and pecked her lightly on her cheek. "I think I'm ready to endure not seeing you till tomorrow now that I've done this." He removed his hands from he

Victoria wounded her arms around Mr Smith's neck as he pulled her closer, kissing her.Their tongue fought for dominance which Mr Smith later won. Feeling too hot, Mr Smith adjusted his tie, still kissing her.While he kissed her, he took off his tie and cupped her face with his hands again, pulling her closer.Not feeling comfortable because they were inside the car, he stopped. "Should we go to the back and continue?" He asked her and she nodded her head.They both came out of the car and went to the back. They were still in the parking lot but a lot of people had gone home.It started with a little peck once they were settled in the car then another peck till it got heated and they couldn't keep their hands to themselves.The moment they were both inside the back of the car, they continued to kiss. Mr Smith groaned at the back of his throat while Victoria moaned. Needing a fix of air, Mr Smith moved from her lip to her neck, as he trailed fleeting kisses from her neck to her colla

"What are you doing, pulling me like this?" Victoria whispered the moment she realized it was Mr Smith who had pulled her towards a corner.A smile tugged on Mrs Smith's face as he looked at her. " I missed you. I haven't seen you all day." He tells her and she rolled her eyes at him."You have got to be kidding me. Okay now, you've seen me, can I go before someone sees us?" She whispered to him as she looked around to see if there was anyone around or someone coming their way.She didn't want to risk being seen with Mr Smith or another photo of them circulating the whole place again."Relax. No one will come here, okay." He tells her.She folded her arms across her chest. "Well, that's what we thought when we didn't see any car in the parking lot and I sucked you?" She replied to him sarcastically.The skin between Mr Smith's brows creased in confusion. "What do you mean?" He asked."In case you do not know. There is a picture of us..." She pointed at him and then herself."A picture

She had to stay back because they had a new project working on and now she was given the entire review of the plan to take back home."Life is stressful." She muttered to herself."Are you okay Vee?" Elizabeth's question got Victoria's attention almost immediately. She had not realized that Elizabeth was around."You came back early today. How was work?" Victoria asked."Fine. How was yours? You seem exhausted." Elizabeth asked."Yes. Work happened and I'm definitely going to be a fine Bee." she cried."You will definitely be. I left some sandwiches for you in the fridge, you can go and get them." Elizabeth tells Victoria.Victoria's eyes immediately lit up. "I love you so much, best friend!"

It hurt her so much. Tears streamed down her face profusely as she recalled it all. She blamed herself for calling Elizabeth out. She blamed herself that if she had not showed up in front of Elizabeth, she wouldn't have died. She blamed herself as she sat on the floor of the hospital ground. Elizabeth was no more. She had managed to call and inform Elizabeth parents She hated herself. She wished she had not called her out. She wished Elizabeth wasn't hit.

On a bright Sunday morning, Victoria decided to call Elizabeth. She hoped Elizabeth would reply as she wanted to know her location and go meet her there so they could converse with one another. She was finally going to end all of this and come to a conclusion with Elizabeth. "What do you want?" Was the first word Elizabeth said the moment she answered the call. "I want us to meet," Victoria replied. "Meet? Why would I want to meet someone like you? You are literally not worth my time and I do not want to waste any time with you. I'd obviously be foolish to create time for someone as worthless as you," Elizabeth spat out. "I am only asking if we meet. It's nothing serious. I need us to talk," Victoria spoke, trying to keep her temper at bay. She didn't want Elizabeth to suddenly end the call while she was talking. She wanted to speak with her and ask her and end their friendship for life. She also wanted to clear everything and tell her mind and let everything end. After what Elizabeth

The moment everyone left and it was just Mr Smith and Mr lucky, Mr lucky decided to ask what had been in his mind since he heard what the actual problem was. "Are you sleeping with Miss Perkins?" Mr Smith was taken aback by Mr Lucky's question as he had not expected him to be so direct about it. "Are you?" Me lucky asked again, his brows rose up slightly in a questioning manner. "She's my girlfriend," he answered. He didn't want to say yes to Mr Lucky's question and male it seem like Victoria wasn't important to him and he was using her to pass time. "You are not surprised?" Mr Smith asked Mr lucky as he noticed Mr lucky had not reacted as he imagined. "Yes. It's surprising right?" Mr Lucky asked and Mr Smith hummed. "Why is that so?" Mr Smith asked, wanting to know. "Well, it's easy. You remember what you told me when I asked you why?" Mr Lucky asked. Mr Smith thought back to the time Mr lucky had asked him why he chose Victoria as a part of the programming team. "Where are you drivi

Mr Smith was surprised to see Mr Lucky in his office as he wasn't expecting him. What surprised him were the people that followed behind him and most especially Victoria. As he took a closer look at her, he saw tears in her eyes and his heart clenched. What happened to her? He thought to himself as he diverted his attention back to Mr Smith. "It seems we have got very unprofessional programmers in this company and I think it's time we remove them and recruit new ones," Mr Lucky said the moment he sat down on the chair. Rebecca played with her fingers whole avoiding contact with Mr Smith. Flora and Maryanne were ready to defend their cause as they believed they only did what was right. "What happened?" Mr Smith asked Mr lucky frantically. "I do not know what happened but these programmers are now children and have decided to engage I'm fist fights and pulling each other's hair," Mr Lucky spoke sternly. Mr Smith looked at Victoria for some seconds before looking away. She wasn't involve

A scowl formed on Rebecca's face immediately. She thought to herself what Elizabeth had in mind and why she was creating a scene. "You all want to know the truth right and then I shall tell you," Elizabeth said. Rebecca got up from her seat and in anger she walked towards Elizabeth. "You are not allowed here and who are you? Leave this instance before I call the guards on you," Rebecca warned but Elixir could care less. Nobody was going to stop her from saying what she had in mind today and she doesn't care about the consequences. She refused to lose to Victoria and so she will drag Victoria to the mud.

"This girl here name Victoria is nothing but a slut because she's fucking your boss Mathew Jason Smith!" She made sure to call Mr Smith by his full

Mr Smith shook his head in disbelief. Elizabeth's attitude had changed all of a sudden once he asked if she would take the opportunity to be his girlfriend. The same girl that had acted as if she loved her best friend could suddenly care less about her and it baffled him. "So you would date me now if I asked you to?" Mr Smith asked and she nodded her head. "Of course. I mean..." She shrugged. Mr Smith got up from his chair, having heard enough from her. He didn't want to stay in the same place as her or have any conversation with her anymore. "Are you leaving?" Elizabeth asked as Mt Smith got up on his feet. "This conversation is over," he said sternly, surprising her by his action. "Over?" Her brows furrowed in confusion. What was he talking about and why did his attitude suddenly change? She thought to herself. "Yes Elizabeth. I do not want to ever speak to you again. I hope this is the last time we ever speak to one another again," he tells her in a stern manner. Elizabeth got up f

'Let meet up.' Elizabeth read the message sent to her by Mr Smith out loud. A frantic expression formed on her face. They had no plans to meet today so why was he suddenly expecting them to meet. She quickly typed her reply. 'Sure.' Not too long Mr Smith sent the address to her and she texted a reply that she would be meeting him when she closes from work. "It's done," Mr Smith said to Victoria. "So she'd be coming to meet you then. I'm nervous," Victoria sighed. Mr Smith rubbed her shoulder that was exposed softly. "You don't have to be. Things will work out fine," he assured her. She heaved a deep breath. "The truth is, I really want to make things right with her. I want to put friendship back. I miss her so much but I fear that it would never be the same," Victoria tells him. "It will be fine. I will just talk to her as we planned and clarify the whole situation and then you guys will be good again," he tells her but she has doubts. The Elizabeth that spoke to her the night she lef

That was all Victoria needed to hear. To know that her man doesn't see her as a mad woman was enough for her."Babe, come on. Tell me already. What happened between the both of you. What's going on because I do not want to be lost in all of this. Weren't you guys best friends? What happened and why does she have to say you have mental issues?" He inquired.Victoria opened her mouth to say something but she closed it back. How does she start? She thought to herself."Elizabeth and I are childhood friends, not just friends but best friends. We grew up together, went to the same high school and same college and graduated the same year. To be honest the problem between us is still baffling me.""If someone had told me that my best friend and I would no longer share the same close bond with one another again, I would have doubted. I would have fought that person because it was impossible for Elizabeth and I to stay away from each other. We were more than friends but sisters.""Our relation
