All Chapters of The Fallacy of Love: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

Ella was walking around a shopping mall picking out some clothes for the upcoming weekend. Her team had completed the contract successfully and she was in a good mood. They had even managed to finish two days earlier, hence why she was out shopping on a Friday afternoon. Eddie had given them a generous bonus each for cleaning up and leaving the building in immaculate condition. The team were also elated after finding out that they would be starting more work on monday. Ella then decided to spend her afternoon pampering herself in preparation for the evening date with Eddie. They had signed the new contract that morning, with Eddie creating a very generous package for Ella. The scope of work was considerably greater than the previous project so Ella’s team would take a longer time and earn more money. Ella thought that this was a great win worth celebrating. The afternoon flew by and Ella went back home to get ready. She showered and took a nap while waiting for the time Eddie would a

“What kind of food do you want to eat?” Eddie asked when he finally joined Ella in the car. He was very happy to see Tokodi and his girlfriend finally leaving. “Anything spicy,” Ella said as she watched the car drive away. “I hope I didn’t disturb your client.” “Actually, I think I’m the one who interrupted them. They were kissing when I went to lock up,” Eddie said. Ella laughed loudly and felt a twinge of jealousy and nostalgia. She and Blake had also been caught several times kissing in inappropriate places. She shook her head and brushed away thoughts of Blake. She had to get over him no matter what it took.“That’s adorable. It must be young love,” Ella said.“Sure. Tokod

 “Stella, how much did you pay to hire these scaffolding materials? They are really good and I’m thinking of getting them for another project that will begin in two weeks,” Tim, her colleague, asked her.“It's a flat daily rate but remember we have the other one starting soon. I’ll retain them then but maybe I can try to get some for you from my supplier,” Ella said. She was getting the scaffolding for free from Eddie but she couldn’t tell her team that. They had made a deal to keep their relationship secret so as to avoid business conflicts. “I had forgotten about that. I think we will need to split up the crew for that,” Tim said.“Sure. We will wait and see which contractor will be ready first then maybe we will not need to split up,&r

Tokodi heard a knock at the door and he slammed the file he was perusing on his desk. “I said whoever comes near my door will get fired. Come in for your dismissal letter,” he barked.His mood was on an all time low after not seeing or hearing from Tracy for a week. The staff at his office had borne the brunt of his terrible disposition. Everyone had stayed away but it was now the end of day.“I’m not sure you can fire me,” Tracy said when she opened the door and peeped in. Tokodi almost tripped over himself as he walked to the door.“Sweetie,” he said as he rushed to her. He stopped short of hugging her and just stood in front of her. “Can I come in?” she asked. 

In another leafy suburb, Tracy woke up in a warm bed wrapped in the fluffy beddings. She stretched and felt the soreness around her waist. She frowned as she tried to sit up and decided that she should lay down for a few minutes. Tracy turned to the side of the bed and was not surprised to find that Tokodi was missing already. He was always an early riser no matter how busy the night had been. She reached for her phone on the bedside table and realised that she had not even taken it out of her hand bag. Tokodi walked in as she lay back on the bed and wrapped the sheets around herself. “Good morning,” he said as he leaned over and kissed her forehead. “Good morning sweetie,” she said smiling. He was carrying a tray with breakfast and he had placed it on the bedside table. &ld
