All Chapters of The Mask She Wears: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Tania||The click of my heels as they hit the tiled floors of the White–Angel company complex resounded in my ears like a bomb.On a normal day, I would not have been able to even hear myself hum over the chatter of people in the reception and the dings of elevators and other noises that emanated from the hundreds of offices in the complex but today was no normal day.Today was my first time at work since I had been revealed to the world as Nicholas' mistress.Just as I had predicted, I was the center of attraction.The reception was fuller than usual and I suspected most of the people there had no business being there.They must have left their offices just to have the opportunity to have a glance at the new office whore in the hope to get some story they could gossip to their friends about or gain popularity with a tweet.Even though I had anticipated this, and so had Marcus since he had sent me a text message today reading, 'Stay strong. It'll all pass eventually. You can do it,'—I

Tania||After the horrible experience with Nicholas and Eloise, I had had enough of the office and its people, so I decided to leave but not without talking to Marcus.We were at our usual spot at the cafe.It seemed I had become a celebrity overnight as I walked into the cafe earlier on. All eyes were on me.This time, I paid them no mind. My mind was already preoccupied with much more things than just having people point at the "whoring employee"."So what was their conclusion?" I asked Marcus, wide-eyed."Well..." He said as he shifted in his seat trying to adjust his trousers.His trousers must have been too tight and digging into his belly after eating a double-decker burger with fries and a cup of latte."...it seems you still have that nefarious business mind of yours as your plan worked." He announced."Yes!" I whispered excitedly in celebration. It turned out that the compan

Tania||Even though I tried to tell myself otherwise, I was scared of going to work.As I buttoned up the striped blue shirt I had chosen today, I could not get my mind off the anxiety of being the center of attraction.I had specifically chosen the button down striped shirt with a pair of wide leg pants so as to look professional and at least not hear the snide remarks that I was dressing to seduce Nicholas.My only consolation about this whole fiasco, was watching first hand as Nicholas' plan slowly perished before my eyes.Moreover, I needed a way to ensure he did not use Eloise as a means to push forward his evil agenda.As I finished prepping my mind, I stepped out of the dressing room, expecting to find Ivan, but he was nowhere in sight and I was only left to wonder where he was.He had tried to make peace with me last night before we slept but I had totally ignored his efforts.I had better things to do with my time than discuss frivolous things with him nor enable whatsoever i

Tania||The last thing I was in the mood for was hanging out with Ivan, but I had agreed to his request.I was going to be spending the next coming weeks doing nothing at home. I might as well be at peace with him.It was going to make my torment much more bearable, at least.Moreover, it would afford me the opportunity to put Marcus' suggestion into work.Excited at the thought of that, I jumped off the bed and ran to the closet.With so much zest, I started to rummage through my clothes for the perfect outfit to wear.I wanted something that looked like I was out to have fun, but I also looked sexy in."Perfect!" I smiled as I held up a tan skims lounge slip dress.I hurriedly got out of the clothes I had on for work, flipping them aggressively to the side, exerting my aggression towards Nicholas on them, and then donned the dress.The smile on my face did not stop as I admired how snatched my body looked in the dress.One problem was solved. I cat walked back to the room and sat in

Tania||My breath caught in my throat and I couldn't move. My entire body was rigid as his words washed over me.There was no escaping this one as he had me locked in his hands and eyes.I knew that he meant what he had said. I could see it in the sea blue of his eyes. All the promises that were unspoken welled up in there demanded a response from me. I knew such a day would come but I had not expected it this soon.His eyes were starting to get impatient, waiting for my response and I knew my time was running out. Warming my face into a smile, I placed a kiss on his lips and then pulled myself back into his embrace.He held me tighter.I let out a sigh of relief as I had successfully managed to escape the trap I had fallen into."You should get ready, it'll soon be time," I said as I let myself out of his embrace."That's right! We don't want to keep Nana waiting."Then with a chuckle he added. "You should have seen the look on her face when I told her we were all going out. I bet
