All Chapters of THIS TIME: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

" Excuse me?" I stutter, feeling my heart racing by the sound of his words.No, he didn't say what I think he said." You've shown me the door twice now Miss Grey, here we are now and I want you, to hear my piece." Relief washes over me by the sound of his words.They sound different from what I initially thought they were." You looked pale there for a moment Miss Grey, what did you think I was saying?"" Nothing, nothing that would make sense to me." I mumble, avoiding eye contact.I feel him look at me, this making me curious enough to look back at him again." Look Mr Cullen, I'm quite busy -"" Looking for a new job." He finishes." That is my business and no." I lie." You're lying." He points out, making me frown." I'm not." I retort." Yes you are, in your bag is

For tonight, we are calling each other by name, something he freaked out about the last time I let slip his name. He had told me that I have no right to call his name and now here he is, wanting us to call each other by name.How confusing is that?We get to the party and of course, because the Myers have always looked for a reason to throw a party, I am not surprised by how much people have dressed up for tonight, not to mention that nothing about tonight says celebrating a baby. This is more adult theme and I am certain that at the discussion table, it was made sure that Brooke would be the main reason for this party.Right outside before we had entered, Mr Cullen had repeated the whole ' we call each other by name and not do the normal addressing we do,' for some unknown reason, he thought I would forget. When we entered, we caught a lot of glances and the few that I know from highschool, couldn't hide their s

" You'd better tell me how this happened and I don't want excuses, got that?!!" Mr Cullen yells over the phone before hanging up.He has been at this for a maximum of 15 minutes now.I actually feel sorry for the person who is at the receiving end, of his wrath. Mr Cullen is clearly stressed out about the whole Mr Davies situation. I have never seen Mr Cullen show so much care for anyone, this time doesn't even compare to the time at the hospital because all he displayed, was anger and accusation.Today, he has shown a different side but it doesn't mean anything to me, it doesn't affect the way I feel towards him. He is still that same man, who I never want to dare get to know, it's safer that way.  With him showing such a side of himself, reminds me that he is still human and there is at least someone he cares about.I just don't think shouting and yelling over the phone at people, will help his case

' I don't never want to see you down at my feet again.' He had said everything in my face and I didn't imagine it.I had found myself rather speechless and not being able to respond. He has confused me all the more, his actions towards me recently. I am more then weary about his intentions, he is like the weather and I can't confirm his mood.It's like he is intending on confusing me and making me look like I am overthinking or overreacting, in regards to the things he says to me.I think it would be easier if things were still the way they were, before I quit my job. I knew him as the mean, very direct and non apologetic man with a killer gaze. And by killer gaze, I mean it's like he is plotting my death whenever I look at him.With the way he's always spoken to me, he's shown me that I irritate him and I have been okay with that. It gave me more of a reason to stay away from him, ap

He's been locked in his office for the rest of the day and I have been relieved by this. I certainly don't know what he was thinking bringing Ava here, when I could have looked after her at Mr Davies's home.Despite how uncomfortable I have been in his home, after being reminded of how things were between us. I simply can't pretend anymore and that is why, it's best that I leave for good after today.I can't be in the same place as him anymore, he's confusing me and the resurfacing memories are haunting me, more so the feeling of betraying the promise I made to myself, that I would never let him make me feel weak again.Glancing at a sleeping Ava, makes me sigh, knowing that after today, things will be different. I might never see her again and this time, I mean what I say. Mr Davies is being discharged tomorrow and it's a relief, that he is okay. His family is here and they will help him out, there is no need for me to be he
