Chapter Two

NovaFor years, I had imagined us meeting again but not in this manner or this setting.I had imagined we will meet in a cafe and I will pretend not to know him, we might meet in a company of my own, and he will walk in needing my help but I will totally deny it.Not in my wildest imagination did I ever think he will be walking into my boss' office, staring at me with judgemental eyes.I knew him so well, the thoughts running through his head, he must think of me as wayward and disgusting, that look which I know so well, the way he stares at Tara then whenever she clings to him.“Jordan Myers, it's nice to see you” Drey said smiling widely at him but Jordan's eyes was stuck on me, I could not help but wonder what the hell he was doing here.Drey's eyes moved from Jordan to me,

NovaWe stood in my office staring at each other like it was a staring contest, I could not help but admire what an handsome man he had become, not that he was not handsome back then but the matured look made him even more handsome."Mr Jordan Myers" I said not breaking eye contact."Miss Nova Lionel" he replied still holding my gaze, this was stupid I thought as I averted my eyes from his or maybe I just could not bear the emotions flooding through me."I knew you will give up eventually" he told me laughing, I know how crazy he can be but I am also the same girl I used to be, even better!"That is because I don't have time to waste, now may I ask you, why do you want to work for us" I replied in an overly professional tone, he faked a
