Unforeseen Chemistry Chapter 14: Romance in the Office - Part 2
"Good morning," Eva greeted them and they both responded to her greeting.Eva looked at Angela up and down before focusing her gaze on the elevator door."Hey, Eva," Bernard greeted. "How are you?" he asked."Good," Eva replied, rolling her eyes at Bernard, who just smiled.Eva and Bernard exited the elevator on the sixth floor and Angela continued to the eighth floor. Angela quickly got to work and after ensuring she had put everything Bryce would need for the morning on his desk, she headed for the ground floor to get something to eat and get Bryce's coffee. As soon as she got to the cafeteria, a lady approached her and roughly pulled her to the side by her arms. She recognized the person as the lady who joined them in the elevator on the fourth floor and she was the same lady who shared an office with Susan."I see how you dressed seductively on your second day. Bernard is my man. So stay clear of him and know your place in this office. If you want to last ten years in this company
Unforeseen Chemistry Chapter 15: Susan's Unexplained Anger
"Susan, do you need anything?" Bryce's voice travelled to Susan's eyes and she snapped out of the moment. Her eyes scanned the place and Angela was not there. She shifted her gaze back to Bryce and he was wiping his hand while standing close to the dining table."Erm, Mr President, I didn't know you were in," Susan said and managed a smile. "I brought the hard copy of the report on the new employees," she reported."Good," Bryce acknowledged and returned to his desk while Susan exited the office.As soon as Susan left, Angela returned to the main office from the connecting kitchen and made her way to Bryce's desk after ensuring the dining area was cleaned. Bryce was sitting behind his desk and had resumed his work."Thank you, Mr President," Angela appreciated and Bryce replied with a 'hmm' not bothering to even raised his head to look at him.Angela headed for the door. That was the time Bryce lifted his head and stared at her back briefly before returning his gaze to his laptop.An
Unforeseen Chemistry Chapter 16: Trouble in the Office
Bernard got behind the wheel and headed for his home. Angela on the other hand stood on the bus with her gaze focused on the road. The memory of what happened to her the last time was still fresh in her mind. The bus stopped at the junction heading to the Estate and Angela got down at her junction. She walked towards the gate and was soon heading for the apartment."Welcome home Ms Angela," Josephine greeted Angela as soon as she walked through the front door, and Angela acknowledged."Is Mr Moore home?" Angela inquired."Yes, ma'am. He is inside his office," Josephine replied."Okay," Angela replied and started walking towards the staircase. In her thoughts, she wondered why Mr Moore married her. She is a wife to him but he treats her like a homeless person he found on the street and decided to shelter her. At the office, he behaves like she is just an ordinary employee. How does he feel about her was the only question on Angela's mind. Angela was so lost in her thoughts she did no
Unforeseen Chemistry Chapter 17: Bryce's Anger
"Is your work too little for you?" Bryce threw the question at Angela who instantly became confused. "I don't understand?" Angela replied confused. "You are my secretary, you work on the things I ask you to work on. If you want to impress me do it when working on the things I have assigned to you. Read your contract and don't go outside your responsibilities," Bryce said."I don't understand. I didn't do anything wrong?" Angela defended."Angela, I am not asking for your explanation. I only told you what I hate. Now if you wish to last this company, you will listen. Now leave," Bryce said and Angela felt pained.She frowned and almost stormed out of the office. Bryce could tell she was deeply hurt but he ignored her. "Mr President, this is not right. I thought you were going to make her face the committee, but you let her go with a warning? How will this deter others from doing the same thing? If she signs an undertaken, she would see this is a serious company who does not condone
Unforeseen Chemistry Chapter 18: Murder in the Home
"My poor little angel, I'm so sorry to hear your day went badly," Mrs Anderson said from the other side of the call. "Now, tell. What happened," she asked.Angela wiped her tears and sniffled before she began to talk. She told Mrs Anderson everything that had transpired in the company including Eva's calls and Bernard bothering her the previous day and in the morning before work."Oh dear, I am so sorry to hear that. I wish there was something I could do to help," Mrs Anderson said in resignation."Mummy, don't worry. I had a choice in all of this. I could have ignored them, and they wouldn't have gotten me, but I got angry. I didn't just get angry, I allowed my anger to take the better part of me. My boss tried to warn me, but I was too angry to listen. Listening to him scold me, I could feel in his voice he did all he could to prevent me from going into such a mess, but I was too stubborn," Angela said, taking the blame."Sweetheart, don't be too hard on yourself. You did have the r
Unforeseen Chemistry Chapter 19: Facing the Disciplinary Committee - Part 1
"Do you want to talk about it?" Bryce asked and Angela shook her head. How could she talk about the painful memory of her childhood? It was her 13th birthday and her parents were murdered in her presence. The Anderson adopted her and changed her date of birth to her adoption date but maintained the year. "It's okay," Bryce said and rubbed Angela's back gently as he tried to calm her.He wondered what could have scared her so much to the extent of breaking her down this way. Yes, some nightmares could be scary but her reaction feels more like she lived a reality in her dream. "Get some rest," Bryce said and tucked her into bed when she was much calmer."Please don't leave me," Angela begged when Bryce turned to leave.Bryce stopped in his steps. Angela's voice travelled to his eyes one more time as she pleaded with him not to leave. She sounded so scared. "Okay," he replied and decided to continue whatever he was doing in the office the following day. The room he had given to Ange

"Finally, some peace of mind. I can go back to working my way to Bryce's heart," Susan said after a good laugh when Eva mimicked Angela entering the disciplinary committee room. "Yeah, and I, back to working my way to Bernard's heart," Eva said."I don't know why you are struggling with Bernard. He loves women. I am surprised he is turning you down," Susan said as she sat down behind her desk."Well, that is a side of Bernard, no one knows except me I think," Eva said and sat down behind her desk. "He is free with everyone but he is not a playboy like he makes everyone believe. He is very traditional," she explained. "I see," Susan said. "In that case. There is one thing you can do. Drug him and get him to sleep with you. He will take responsibility," she added."How am I to do that when he doesn't want me anywhere around him?" Eva asked."Company party coming up. We can do something," Susan said."Sounds like a plan," Eva replied with a smile."Now let's just wait for Bryce to retu
Unforeseen Chemistry Chapter 21: The Nightmare
The slowly passed and Angela wrapped up for the day. She put her reports together and after sending the email, he carried the hard copy to Bryce's office. She knocked and entered the office after she heard Bryce's voice inviting her in. "I brought the report," Angela announced and headed for the place where she was supposed to drop the documents."Angela," Bryce called out to Angela his voice very soft."Yes President," Angela responded and moved towards Bryce's desk. "How are you?" Bryce asked and relaxed in his seat staring at Angela."I am fine," Angela replied staring at him with no expression at all registered on her face. "Have you eaten?" Bryce asked. "No please," Angela replied and lowered her head."Why?" Bryce asked. "I was scared of what this day will bring. I felt a bit relaxed after the verdict was given," Angela said. "And thank you for the phone," she appreciated changing the subject."That is fine. I believe you have learnt your lesson. This is the corporate world

Susan after making multiple turns finally found her way to the staircase. She quickly went down the stairs and found herself in the open space. The exit door was just a walk away from her left, and the living room was also a couple of walks away from her right. She requested an Uber and was soon out of Bryce's home. Josephine locked the main door as Susan left before returning to her room.Inside the Uber, on her way back to her apartment, Susan called Eva."Have you found Angela yet?" Susan asked."No, it's like she just vanished into theme air," Eva replied."Keep looking, I am sure she is hiding somewhere. Bryce seems to like her and I want to know why," Bryce said and the Uber driver looked at Susan briefly in the rearview mirror before focusing his gaze on the road."And about Bernard. When are you going to help me with him?" Eva asked. "Let the sun come up and I will tell you what to do," Susan replied before ending the call."Who are you, Angela? Why does Bryce like you?" Susa
Unforeseen Chemistry Chapter 78: Rules for a Wife
Bryce stood there frozen to his spot as he stared at the back of his father, Devon, as he walked majestically out of his living room towards the exit. Every step Devon took, made Bryce feel like his father, Devon, had him where he wanted."So, are we going upstairs now?" came Susan's voice as she hung herself from Bryce's shoulders sounding seductive. Bryce's shifted his gaze to Susan who was still hunting from his shoulder with smiles covering her face and a stare of seduction."Get your slutty hands off me. Are you that desperate for a man to the extent that you lower your standard to a level of begging and throwing your dignity out of the window?" Bryce said with disdain and a frown on his face.Susan let go of Bryce's shoulder immediately and stared at him, her anger gradually rising as she processed Bryce's words. Bryce squeezes his face staring at her."Calling you a slut is even giving you credit because we know they at least charge their clients for their service. You are jus

The day slowly went by and soon the morning came. Bryce woke up and got ready for the office. He skipped breakfast and was soon in the car heading for the office. "What is the latest news on Angela's location?" Bryce asked."Sir, we still don't have anything on her. It appears she didn't have any friends and she didn't go to her family home either," Marcus replied. "You are not doing a good job then. Search everywhere," Bryce almost yelled."Yes, boss," Marcus replied and shifted his gaze to the road.They soon arrived at Diamond Corporation. Bryce got out of the car and went up to his office. When he walked in, he was surprised to find his coffee sitting on his table. "Angela!" Bryce whispered her name and went out of his office.He stood behind Angela's office door and knocked. After the knock, he tried to open the door and it was locked. He frowned and pulled his phone out."Maybe she went to meet up with Don," he thought as he dialled Don's number on his phone. "Hello Don, how
Unforeseen Chemistry Chapter 76: Declaration of War
"Patricia, calm yourself," Devon said. "Even if you are against my decision, you should not do this in front of our guest," he added."Then you should have discussed with me first before making an announcement I know nothing about in front of the so-called guest," Patricia said angrily."What is wrong with you Patricia? This is Susan. She grew up together with Bryce. What do you have against her?" Devon asked."You know. I am glad you asked this question because I wanted to ask you the same question. I don't know we may have the same reason for our objections," Patricia said with a frown. "What do you have against Angela," she asked.Susan who was sitting at the table was surprised by the hostility displaced by Patricia but after hearing her question she understood why."So this is about Angela," Susan thought and grabbed a glass of water for herself."Angela is a slut and a gold digger. She is only her to amass wealth for herself. I would not sit and watch such a woman take away ever

It was five minutes after the hour five in the evening when Zora returned to her apartment. She opened the front door and entered her room to find Angela still lying on the sofa where she had left her."Hey, girlfriend, don't tell me you haven't moved since I left," Zora said as she kicked her shoes off her feet carrying two paper bags in her hand with her bag hanging from her shoulder.Zora walked to the sofa and placed the two paper bags on the centre table leaving her shoes at the door. She dropped her bag on the sofa and she sat down on one of the sofas. She then tapped Angela on her shoulder. "You are back," Angela opened her eyes and turned in the direction of where the tapping had come from only to see Zora sitting on the sofa next to where she was lying asleep."Yeah, I am and it looks like someone just slept off as soon as I left," Zora said and opened the two paper bags releasing the aroma of french fries into the air."I am tired. I can't cook so I ordered something from K
Unforeseen Chemistry Chapter 74: My Decision is Final
"How dare you barged into my office like that?" Devon barked standing up to face Bryce who was equally standing in front of his desk facing him squarely.The two gentlemen stared at each other angrily for a while in silence before Bryce decided to break the silence. "Angela is my wife and now that I know she is carrying my child, I am not going to let her go," Bryce said sounding very serious."Then you leave me no choice. I shall take the company away from you," Devon said and Bryce scoffed."So be it. You can have your company back," Bryce said and was about to leave. "I am not just taking the company away from you. I am freezing all your assets. Good luck running that house in the Estates with no money. And Bryce, I need you to pay the rent for that apartment by noon today. Starting from the day of acquisition if not, you move out," he said."We own that estate so why do I have to pay you rent?" Bryce questioned. "I am a Moore," he added."Since you started disobeying my orders.

After Bryce left to get food for Angela, the doctor came to Angela's ward."Great, you are awake now. Your test results came out fine. So you are free to go home for now," the doctor said and Angela nodded. She grabbed her bag and quickly searched for her phone. She dialled Zora's number and waited for her to answer."Hello Zora, I want to come over to your place. This is urgent," Angela said on the call."Okay, I went to get something in town. I will hurry to my place. If you can make it in within the next half an hour, I will wait for you," Zora replied."Thank you. I will be there shortly," Angela said and ended the call before dropping the phone into her bag.With Bryce away, she seized the opportunity to leave the ward. She knew if he returned it would be difficult to leave. She grabbed her bag and was soon out of the ward. She exited the hospital and used the pavement heading for the exit. She kept her eyes on the lookout for the car park. She was happy it was on the other side
Unforeseen Chemistry Chapter 72: She Left Me
"Why?" Bryce asked wondering if his father had said anything to her."I don't want to be married to you anymore," Angela replied because she didn't want to tell him she was requesting a divorce because she thought his family had something to do with her parents' murder."Why?" Bryce asked again feeling uneasy hearing her request for a divorce.Why does she want a divorce now that she is carrying his child? Is it a way to run away with his child?"Our marriage was a wrong idea. We were not supposed to be married in the first place," Angela replied. "It is never too late to rectify a mistake. It's only been like four months. We are not compatible. We may have some che ... er some er, chemistry, when we are, erm," she stammered trying to make her last statement as her eyes looked everywhere except him while she fidgeted with her hand and the cover cloth.She cleared her throat and continued.

Bryce after the call cancelled all his appointments for the day at the office and stayed with Angela at the hospital. A couple of minutes to hours went by before Angela opened her eyes. Her gaze fell on Bryce sitting on the chair next to her bed with his gaze fixated on his phone."Angela," Bryce called out to her putting his phone aside after noticing the small movement from Angela. "How are you feeling?" he asked leaning forward and taking her hand in his.Angela tried to get up but Bryce prevented her from getting up."Relax. Just lie down for a while," Bryce said and Angela just stared at him.Her mind quickly went to the artefact and memories of the night her parents were murdered flooded her mind. Her breathing became unsteady and started trembling. Her hands flew to her ears as she closed her eyes terrified."Angela," Bryce called out to her seeing her panic."Leave me alone. Go away from me," Angela cried."Angela, it's me, Bryce. Calm down," Bryce said trying to calm her down
