Even though Henry had just asked her to head to his office, Eve acted as if she didn't hear the command. She walked up to Kingsley and Franklin."So when are you going out? How about a weekend? We could stay out till dawn on Friday or maybe Saturday. That way, we can get to know each other more." she told them.Henry was beside her and the men were shivering already."I said you should head to my office right now!" Henry said."Is there any more work to be done? Besides, lunch hour is not yet over," replied Eve. She glanced at her wristwatch. "There's about five minutes left.""Didn't you get my message?" Henry asked sounding impatient."What?" Eve spat and flipped her hair.Henry moved closer to her and whispered "I want you in my office right now and don't you dare argue with me."He turned to the men. "And what are you two still doing here? Is there no work to be done at your departments?"Kingsley and Frank exchanged glances and in a flash, they disappeared from the scene. Henry

Chapter Fifty-two

Eve was taken aback. She stood up, wondering why a small issue like that could generate such a violent reaction from him. She looked at Henry without a word.Henry ran his hands through his hair and sighed. "You are the first female assistant I've ever hired." he disclosed."Do your job and don't mingle with male employees around here," he said in an authoritative tone.He turned around to retire to his chair when Eve spoke. "I'll do my job sir but I'm sorry, you can't dictate who I hang out with."He turned around. "So you are going to go ahead and mingle with the guys? Are you even listening to me?""Do you always treat your other female employees this way? Do you tell Stacy, Anna or Jasmine who to hang out with here?" Eve asked."Well, you seem to be the only female employee mingling with the men around here," Henry replied.Eve shook her head. "So you want me to be this miserable personal assistant with no friends at work? You want me to dedicate my eight hours daily speaking to y

Chapter Fifty-three

The next morning, Henry Richard came to his office and met the door locked. He went back to Stacy's desk."Hasn't my assistant shown up yet?" "She's yet to arrive, sir. Do you need anything?" Stacy demanded, smiling lovingly."If she's yet to arrive, it means my office hasn't been cleaned yet," Henry replied."I'll get it tidied before you blink." Stacy volunteered and took off.Henry went ahead and unlocked the office It was past 9 am and Eve was yet to show up. Stacy got one of the messengers to clean the office.

Chapter Fifty-Four

"Wait!" Dane said and stood up. "Does she have a headache or you are covering up for her?"Henry cleared his throat. "It doesn't matter," he mumbled."You are making up the excuse for her boss. I see right through you."Henry sat up and faked a smile. "What? What are you saying, Dane? We shouldn't be talking about this bro. And so what if she didn't show up today?""Well, the contract states that she mustn't miss work without any valid reason so I'm certain she's aware of that so tell me, boss, what happened?" Dane folded his arms across his chest."Fine. You are right. I'm making up excuses for her. The truth is we had an argument yesterday and I called her a slut." revealed Henry. He lowered his gaze to the floor.Dane covered his mouth with both hands. "You did what?" he screamed and shook his head."And she slapped me." Henry disclosed."What? Eve slapped you?""Right on my left cheek." "Damn it," said Dane. An awkward silence fell upon them."Slapping you wasn't the right thing

Yesterday, she was absent from work and couldn't stop thinking about what Henry's reaction will be today when she eventually shows up.After she sent a slap across his face the previous day, she rushed to Olivia's office to tell her about the ordeal.

Chapter Fifty-Six

She saw the sincerity in his eyes and knew that the apology came from his heart. She had never imagined Henry to be the kind of boss that will stoop so low to apologise to his personal assistant."And I'm sorry for bugging you that day with my unnecessary questions," she said."They weren't unnecessary questions." Henry countered. "I just acted like a jerk," he said. Eve giggled.Eve wished there was a way she could make a video recording of the entire moment so she could upload it on the hate group and show the women how the famous Henry Richard was apologising to her with a bouquet of roses. Nevertheless, she wasn't going to spare them any detail.Henry went on. "So this flower, is to say I'm sorry for calling you a slut." he lowered his head. Eve sniffled."I'm sorry and I hope you find a place in your heart to forgive me," he begged. Eve nodded."I've forgiven you, sir. I told you, we are good right?" Eve replied.Henry nodded and wondered how he was able to put his apology on dis

"Open your eyes Eve, please wake up." Henry cried out. He began to wiggle Eve while rubbing her left palm vigorously.He lifted her from the spot, carried her in his arms and placed her in the centre of the office. After discovering that her heart was still beating, he leapt for joy but didn't stop panicking.Henry immediately pulled out his cellphone and with trembling hands, he dialled Dane's number."Eve! she passed out. Come to her office right now!" he screamed to Dane, breathing heavily.Dane ran to Eve's office and saw Henry kneeling beside her unconscious body, trying to revive her."What happened to her?" Dane said and swept her off the floor.Henry ran to open the door properly so Dane could head out. "She passed out," Henry replied."We need to get her to a hospital."Dane hurried out of the office with Eve in his arms while Henry ran after them. When they got to the reception, the employees around began to whisper."Isn't that Mr Richard's new assistant?""What happened to

Chapter Fifty-Eight

"I'm sorry guys. No patient relatives are allowed within here. You guys can sit here." the chubby nurse said and pointed to a bench at the corner."What? I have to go in. How am I going to know that she's fine?" Henry countered and tried to force himself into the ward.Eve was placed on the bed while one of the nurses ran out to get the doctor.Dane gripped Henry's arm, preventing him from forcing his way into the emergency unit."Let them do their job boss," Dane said and pulled Henry away to the corner.Soon, the doctor came running out of his office. When Dane and Henry saw him, they rushed to meet him."What happened?" he demanded."She's allergic to nuts and we didn't know about it so she ate two bars of chocolates with nuts in them and then she went blank," Henry reported."Did you administer any drug to her before she passed out?" the doctor asked."Nothing. We gave her nothing but drove her straight here," replied Dane."Okay."The doctor rushed to the emergency room while Hen

Chapter Fifty-Nine

Henry saw the water bottle flying toward him and he ducked immediately. The bottle missed his head and hit the wall before landing on the floor."What a way to wake up Eve," he commented with his left hand on his chest, breathing heavily."You're lucky that I missed my target," Eve replied and folded her arms across her chest. Dane couldn't stop chuckling."So you intentionally wanted to hit me?" Henry demanded and moved closer to her. "What is wrong with you?" he growled."Well, you nearly sent her to the cemetery so you got what you deserve," Dane said with a blink.Henry sighed. "Why would you do such a thing Eve?" He was still yelling.Eve glared at him and screamed at his face. "You wanted to kill me.""No." Henry fired back and shook his head. "Why did you force me to eat that damn chocolate? As if I knew there was something about it that made me reject it but you went ahead and forced me." Eve continued."Easy!" Dane intervened. "You just woke up. You can't be yelling like th

"And I'm sorry for yelling at you for throwing the bottle at me," said Henry."You had the right to yell at me. I attacked you." she acknowledged."Well, I should have been more sensitive. You just woke up and I'm yelling at you," replied Henry. "I'm sorry." he quickly added."I should be the one apologising here." Eve disagreed. "I mean who wakes up and launches an attack on her saviour?" They both laughed."If I didn't miss, that bottle would have landed on my forehead." Henry pointed out."It means that I'm a sharpshooter so, next time, you might not see it coming and might not get the chance to duck." Eve jokingly warned him."I'll take note of that." Henry agreed with a nod."And Dane, oh my God, I made him angry that he had to leave." lamented Eve. She shook her head and palmed her forehead with her left hand."Don't you worry about Dane? He was probably tired and needed to leave anyway." Henry said."When I get out of here, the first thing I'll do is apologise to Dane." Eve dis
