I settled down a bit in the swivel chair, I didn't understand how this man yesterday wrote to me like a teenager and today he acts like nothing happened. I checked my cell phone to reread the messages, for a moment I thought maybe I was the one who made a mistake.Nope! Obviously I'm not crazy, the messages were intact and with the bad spelling, I went back to his photo, I had to refresh my eyes a little. He was online, just barely, and I was sending him a "Hello" but I shook my head to get rid of those bad thoughts.Come on, America, you have to concentrate on your work. At the same time I remembered Billie, he was not far behind either, he was carved by the gods themselves.I went through the documents on the table and they were all for Dalton, so any minute now he'd call me back."Hello, friend, how are you doing?" Vicky approaches my cubicle."The best," I smiled from ear to ear, "how are you?"“A little sleepless, I was reviewing some reports that Mr. Morgan wanted for today so I
"Surprised at the power of this beauty?" he bragged, passing car after car. “A little”I agreed, but deep down I wasn't amused by anything Billie said. "Did they at least treat you well at Dalton's company?" He turned to see me with this lens that reflected my face. “Since I joined the company they have treated me well, as you know I am on probation and I think they do it to see the good performance of their workers. “ Ha ! No matter how many things Dalton does this year, I will reign in the business again.” He raised his eyebrows. I recently liked Billie but it was getting a bit annoying to hear how he expressed himself about his "friend". "Is your company something that your parents left you or did you found it?" He wanted to know if he would brag this time. “It's a company that my parents founded many years ago, but they discovered that I have the ability for business and I made it grow in a record period, so you're quite a celebrity in that”he put his right hand on my leg, t
I looked at my watch, it was almost noon, the staff will be looking for mealtime rather. I was still hungry, and nervous because I don't know how Dalton would act now that I'm back. I don't know if he will be angry or if he will fire me. I was supposed to be on trial and that's where I should behave best. But I did something wrong today, I just hope I don't suffer the consequences.When I got to the elevator the doors opened and Vicky got out.“America! She approached me , apparently she was ready to have lunch."Vicky, is Mr. Morgan still in his office?"She hesitated a bit.'No, actually he just went downstairs five minutes ago to the company cafeteria for some lunch. Do you want to go with me?I hesitated a bit, maybe I could talk to Dalton and apologize in the cafeteria."Okay, let's go." The two of us walked down a hallway I hadn't come down before. It was long and at the end you could see an open room. It had glass windows allowing to see the outskirts, to a small garden with ve
I quickly went to Vicky's office, I felt anxious, if I felt nervous here, now I don't want to imagine myself in another company and still with that Sabrina witch present. " Vicky, it's good to meet you." I tucked my hair behind my ear. "What brings you here?" He was reviewing documents. "It's Dalton," I bit my lip. "What happened to him ? " Don't tell me he got mad because of what you did with Billie.” He placed his eyes under his glasses. “No, on the contrary, he wants me to accompany him to Sabrina's father's company, he sent me to give me some documents that should be ready”I crossed my arms. "So you're going to go into the lion's den," he scratched his chin, "interesting..." " What's interesting?" I frowned. “That Dalton wants to take you there, he knows that when Sabrina sees a girl near him she gets hysterical, be careful with that crazy woman, America. Don't let him try to humiliate you just because you're on probation. “Don't worry, that won't happen, I know how to de
When we arrived it was raining buckets, the weather had suddenly turned very cold. There was lightning and even some lightning that made me shiver. Dalton and I quickly got out of the car and headed for the hotel living room. As I assumed, it would be one of those five star luxury hotels. Even for one night my boss spent so much."I'll ask if there's a room available," he tells me, taking off his jacket and handing it to me. "So you can dry off a bit." His gaze shifted to my breasts. Great, it was already the second time the brazier looked at me . Just as it was the second time I got wet in the rain."Okay," I took it. Dalton approached the reception, where there was a young and very pretty girl. As soon as she saw Dalton her eyes lit up and her flirtatious mode quickly kicked in. I rolled my eyes to myself as I dried the ends of my hair. It was late at night and I needed dry clothes to put on, I didn't want to get sick.Dalton and the girl exchange words, my boss doesn't seem fazed b
"What are you going to do with your parents?" “When Tommy and I entered the apartment we headed towards my room. My room was a mess, there were things lying here and there. But it was Tommy, I didn't care."I want to pay you a visit," I replied, taking my suitcase out of the closet. It was small, black. I would only go on Saturday and Sunday because Monday I had to come to class and obviously to work.“It's been a long time since you visited your parents, that is, the years we've been neighbors I haven't seen you go out like that. You must be very bad.I looked at him weird."What do you mean bad?" I put the open suitcase on the bed and went to get clothes from my closet. Tommy was just sitting on the edge of my bed talking. I didn't even know why I told him to come with me."It was just a comment." He shrugged.“Where is your house? he wanted to know, now he lay down on the bed putting his arms like pillows. I rolled my eyes to myself but didn't say anything. He also didn't understan
Mom and I were back at the farm. I was unloading some bags from the truck as well as mom.“America, you have a very handsome boss”she looked so animated”watch out for that, there could be an opportunity there.Mom !" I shook my head, "do you think a guy like him would notice a girl like me?" Believe me, I would be his last option “we walked towards the house with the cardboard paper bags in our arms”if only you saw the women who follow him.Leo arrived right away to help us with the other purchases. He came in filthy jeans, a half”buttoned checkered shirt, brown leather boots and a half”fitting beige hat, his hair sticking out on the sides, he seemed to have changed a bit.“Hello, America”he gave me a look from head to toe”from what I see you are very changed, it's been so long since I looked at you.” He took the rest of the purchases."Hello, Leo," I answered without any expression on my face, "yes, apparently one gets lost around here for a while and people then see you differently,
That night I went for a walk to the stables, I needed to think. Fugaz was in his place, looking a bit uneasy. I got close to him, I was a little scared because I haven't seen him for a long time and maybe he doesn't even recognize me."Hello, friend," I approached stealthily, "don't you remember me ?"The horse growled a little, but I felt that it was not a bad action, quite the opposite. I raised my hand and ran it through his fur, it was soft. I remembered Dalton riding the , his bearing, his confidence. Dalton Morgan was definitely a very charming man."America, what a surprise to see you here," Leo's voice brought me out of my thoughts and made me see him. He came with a white horse.“You are still here? I wanted to know, separating myself a little from Fugaz.“That's right, I work late. I see Fugaz still remembers you. "That horse won't let almost anyone near it," he muttered.“Oh yes ? I looked at Fugaz.“Yes, after all you are his owner “Leo spoke to me as if we were lifelong f
“Yes, I'm fine and thank you, although I know it's out of interest, but you're still saving my life”we continue walking along the forest path”what's your name Tom... “That's right, what's relevant about that? ?”He raised his hands in peace. "Nothing, I'm just telling you, by the way, are we almost there?" I inspected my side and it was still hurting a lot. “Don't worry, we're almost there, I hope there's no one at the surveillance post”he loaded his gun in front of me . "What are you going to do?" I didn't like seeing those things near me , I was afraid that a stray bullet would come out and hit me. “Don't worry, girl, a man like me must have his precautions”he went ahead, he could already see the boat tied to a smaller dock, it seemed that there was a dock only for small boats. I immediately felt that someone was heading towards us. "Hey, Tom," I tugged at his shirt, "I think someone's coming." "Hide behind those boards," he ordered nervously, immediately I got behind a handf
It was very dark, I could hardly see the palm of my hand and those guys were coming after me , worst of all, I was running without any particular direction, I just knew I had to run away from those guys without caring about anything. There were dry leaves and many branches, I dodged everything in front of me, the surface was uneven, so much so that I had to run barefoot. I kept running as fast as I could, but my strength was running out too. In an unexpected movement I bumped into something and started to roll downhill, colliding with whatever object was in front of me, I could even feel that my ribs collided with a very thick branch which made me change direction. I kept rolling until I fell on the edge of a kind of stream. My body was sore, I touched my side and I felt a strong pain, most likely I fractured or something, but at least I couldn't hear the voices of those guys who would come for me anymore . I had to move from the point, knowing those people they would surely come f
The guys handed me over to the boss, who took me by the hair making me get into a boat."Let go of me, you idiot ! " I tried to get away, but it was useless. My scalp was starting to hurt already. I heard some gunshots that made me turn to where Nick and Nate were, I was so scared for them. Fear that they would do something to them or hurt them."Come on, get on!" The boss pushed me down to my knees inside the boat. He then got on with two more men who held me by the arms."Beth!" “I heard Nick call me, I looked down the pier and there he was running towards me , other guys were behind."Nick!" I started to yell at him but one of the guys covered my mouth."Beth!" He was so close.The boss started the boat, moving us away from the dock. I tried to break free and I tried to scream but I couldn't. A few tears rolled down my cheeks. I was scared. Fear because I don't know what would happen to me. Scared of these guys.In the distance I saw that Nick jumped into the water and tried to swi
I took a taxi as usual, but first I took a sidelong glance at the car that was there, you couldn't see anything so its windows were tinted, but I had never seen Nate or Nivk have a car like this."Please take me to the Miller company," I ordered the driver while my eyes were still on the car, but well I guess it must be someone who also lives nearby.The taxi had started and we had already been on the road for perhaps ten minutes, I checked the inside of my bag to make sure that I had nothing left, the vigilance was a key factor so that I was not well for the rest of the day because of what today would be quite a challenge to stand.I turned my neck back and to my surprise the car I had seen outside the building was also behind me. That if I looked even more suspicious.“Please pick up the pace”I touched the driver's shoulder while I continued with my neck turned backwards”what happens is that I'm a little late and my boss will be very angry.Immediately the driver accelerated even mo
“Please, get out of here, seriously”he grabbed his hair to the point that it messed up”damn it, but I'm starting to hate my life, I'm starting to hate everyone”his tears kept falling, you could tell how badly he felt it was past “Don't feel like that, I don't like seeing you like this”I tried to reassure him, it really hurt me to see Nick in that state, no one deserves to be unhappy in the things they like the most”it's just a prize rhythm, we both know that you work hard and that the work you have been doing all this time is good, not because they have not rewarded you they make you less, look at me”I cradled his face, putting it in front of mine, take a deep breath, Beth, you have to make him feel supported, enough of so much pain knowing that you want it”You have me !”I didn't know what I was doing, but this time I had to bring out what was in my heart. Having this content all the time was killing me. "What are you talking about?" He frowned, puzzled at what I had said, but at le
TWO WEEKS LATER NATE Things were going as planned, the economic situation in my company was the best, profits and good business were definitely my thing, but there was something more important than that and it was the girl who has captivated my heart , that girl that when I see her shakes my whole floor. I had never felt a feeling like the one I feel for Beth, it was something pure and sincere, but there is something that bothers me, on the one hand I feel that something happens to her every time she sees Nick and that makes me very angry, on the other hand this that damn document that I made with dumb Nick, the document that stated that we would fight for Beth's virginity, I bet if she found out what we did she'd blow both of us away for the way we were messing with her, but at the beginning I didn't say that I would fall in love with her, but well. What's done is done and I'm winning that bet. “Young Nate”there was a knock on the door, it was my butler Alfred”did I want to ask yo
"I only went through a few things, it seems normal to me," she shrugged, leaving the bags on the table. At that, his sight shifted to my apartment. I felt a little sorry because it sure wasn't a big deal. I imagine Nate will have a super big mansion with a lot of employees. This wouldn't even serve as a closet. "I like your apartment," he tells me. "It's all rustic, comfortable and cozy," he smiled lopsidedly."You don't have to pretend," I made it clear.He looked at me with a frown."I'm telling you the truth, I like it.""If you say so..." I shrugged. Sometimes my "yes you say it" meant "I don't believe you".“It's the truth. I brought some fast food, a little of everything. There's a family pizza, two burgers and fries, I also brought juice. I didn't know what flavor you preferred so I brought several “he showed me the bottles of juice”I brought a bag of popcorn and a few movies for us to watch”he had three discs with some movie."What are they about?" I took them.“Well, I didn't
“Please, don't do that, it's a bit disgusting”I separated from him, something I never liked was a guy with vices, usually whenever they go out to drink they do things behind women's backs and I also didn't like it feel the breath of alcohol every time he spoke. “Dammit! Understand that you are only mine”he collided with some objects in the room, he was very drunk.” Since you came to my company and sat in front of me I knew you would be mine”he assured with great certainty. “You have no idea what you 're talking about, Nicholas, you're just drunk and when people are like that they talk incoherently, so please go back the way you came, don't you see what time it is? I don't want to get in trouble with my neighbors over these numbers as a teenager. "I'm not going, Elizabeth!" He hit the wall with great force which scared me a little. "I've been stupid all this time behind you." He came staggering from one side to the other. "I seriously order you to stop being With Nate, he 's a fucki
"Shhh, don't say anything," that voice I knew so well whispered in my ear. It was Nick, what the hell was he doing here and what did he gain from it?"Hmm," I tried to get away.I 'll let you go, but don't yell," he begged.I just nodded for him to let me go. When he finally released me I turned to him completely annoyed. Nicholas scoured me from head to toe, but this time I only looked angry."What the hell is wrong with you, Nicholas?" I snapped."What the hell is wrong with you?" Why are you in your underwear in the middle of the woods with Nate? What are you playing at, Elizabeth? His tone was cold."Let's see, first of all…" I remembered what Nate had told me a while ago. "I'm not in office hours, Mr. Miller, and the contract I signed didn't say anything about my love life." So I don't understand why he gets like this,” I let him know as seriously as possible. Nicholas would know my ability to pretend he and I never had anything. He's just my boss and I'm his secretary.Nicholas
