Chapter 151

EnoraMy fingers fumbled at my desk as I grabbed my laptop and my copy of the agreement to be discussed.My ears were pricked, my head kept moving at the slightest sound that came from the door.As soon as I got to my office, I checked my phone. Twelve missed calls from Anthony. I expected him to come storming through my door any second, demanding why I didn't pick up calls or come for lunch.God! My mind felt like a factory, thoughts flying in and out like it was a damn delivery service.Mr. Wright wanted to find out about Eliot, Anthony was certainly mad at me and in the midst of all this, Bridget was planning a freaking housewarming party.My gut clenched and my heart skipped several beats.I had a meeting to get to, and here I was, shivering like a leaf."Breath, Enora. Breath. One thing at a time. Meeting first, then you can deal with Mr. Wright later."It was little comfort but it was something.I hugged my laptop to my chest and hurried to the conference room. My breath caught

Chapter 152

Nathan:I looked blankly at Mr. Kane, who smiled knowingly.I drew a deep breath and exhaled through my mouth. I couldn't lie–I was impressed that he did his research.My company has been at the forefront of success and profit for years, and it masked our weakness in technological advancements.It has been that way for years and I was certain that we could build our strength in the shadows of our millions and front cover success."You did some deep digging, Mr. Kane," I said casually, returning his smile and burning a glare into him. "But I assure you, my company isn't that weak. We might not be at the front in that aspect but I believe that we will steadily climb."Mr. Kane chuckled and gestured his head to the side. One of his associates opened a briefcase and I watched suspiciously as he handed the document to Mr. Kane, who handed it to me."I believe that it isn't too early to move a company forward. Why wait when there is is clear, faster route?"I glossed over the paper and my c

Chapter 153

Enora:He left, and I was left alone in the conference room. Finally, I could take a breath of fresh air. Those eyes lingering on me made me break into a sweat in the air-conditioned room.My breath caught in my throat as an image of Mr. Kane’s green eyes and piercing stare flashed through my mind.I could see the way Mr. Wright looked at him with disdain, the way both of them fought for control and dominance in the room as they negotiated.I had watched Mr. Wright negotiate many business deals, but they were nothing like what I had just witnessed. It was like watching Mr. Wright haggle with himself—a younger, green-eyed version of himself. My fingers ran across the keyboard as I put the finishing touches to the minute that I would print and send out to the Legal department alongside the new contract that Mr. Kane and his team had provided.Today was the most stressful day of my entire life. Thank god the workday was almost over. I could go home and…A shiver ran down my spine and my

Chapter 154

Enora:My fingers trembled and my breathing caught in my throat. I looked back at Mr. Wright and he was glaring hard at me. My stimach wanted to fip itself inside out.Nothing happened between Mr. Kane and I. I could swear on it.“You–”He snatched the card from my fingers and in a few swift movements, it was in shreds on the floor. My heart rate elevated and my vision blurred as oxygen failed to reach my brain.“–are going to go home with me. I will drive you back to your condo. We really need to talk.”I couldn’t say anything and simply watched him walk away. My laptop was pressed even tighter to my chest and my ribs suffered under the pressure. All I wanted was a normal day at work. Was that really too hard to ask?I hurried to my office, my lips parted as I struggled to take a breath and think straight.The look in Mr. Wright’s eyes were terrifying but I was certain that I didn’t do anything with Mr. Kane. I mean… I didn’t even take his complimentary card. That must count for…“Ou

Chapter 155

NathanI waited in the car, my phone beeping as I called her number. Why wasn’t she answering? I expected her to meet me here.As I called her line for the third time, I could feel my patience running thin. What was taking her so long?A few more seconds passed by and I could take it no more. I opened the door and got out. As I reached the office door, it flung open, missing my nose by a few inches.She dashed past me and I grabbed her hand, pulling her back as she yelped in surprise.“What took you so long?” I growled, pulling her close to my body and looking into her deep blue eyes.“I-I had something extra to take care of. I’m really sorry. I also went to your office and didn’t see you there?”I scoffed. Why did I feel she was hiding something?“Why didn’t you answer your phone? I’ve called you three times already.”“It was on silent. I was trying to focus on something.”Her lips trembled and her eyes looked shifty. There was something that she wasn’t telling me. Regardless, I gest

Chapter 156

Enora:I felt my gut wrench violently and a salty taste filled my mouth. Mr. Kane was Eliot’s dad?!Urghh! Saying it out loud made it even worse and the salty taste increased. At this rate, I was going to throw up. That and all the tension in the room was unsettling.Mr. Wright stood there glaring at Eliot who stared back, unfazed, as Bridegt clung to his arm, sweating and struggling to keep her breathing under control.This had to be more weird for her than it was for me.“Nice to meet you, Mr. Wright,” Eliot said firmly, walking up to Mr. Wright with his hand outstretched for a handshake.I stood next to Mr. Wright watching Bridget jitter and gasp. She looked terribly pale and her eyes turned to me with a plead in them. What did she want me to do?Eliot’s hand hung there for a while, under Mr. Wright’s glare. His eyes darted from Bridget to Eliot and back to Bridget with disapproval building every second.His lips were turned down slightly and his eyes had darkened. It was no secret

Chapter 157

Enora:Dinner was awkward. The table was silent except for the clatter of cutlery on the china.Bridget was feeling the heat as she sat between her father and Eliot, who couldn’t help but cast each other death glares.I sat alone, forcing myself to eat, even though my gut was still clenching from the knowledge of who Eliot and Mr. Kane were to each other as well as the fact that Mr. Wright wanted to kiss me and Bridget nearly caught us.“So, Bridget,” Mr. Wright started, breaking the silence and sending shudders down Bridget’s spine. “When did you and Eliot meet? How long have you both been dating?”Bridget looked at me and I blinked twice. I was clueless about how she was going to answer this one. I hoped she wasn’t going to tell him about the drunk party thing.Fuck! I couldn’t bear any more.“Uhmm… Well,” Bridget began, slowly putting her cutlery down and taking a deep breath, “we met in my second year. Cornell University and University of Washington had a meet and we met, exchange

Chapter 158

Enora: She said–"I was dying inside. Well, it was good while it lasted."–pleasant things. She tried to convince me that you were worthy of my daughter."Bridget's eyes welled with tears and her hand flew to her mouth.I was dumbfounded. What the hell just happened?"Oh my god! Enny!"Bridget rushed from her seat and flung herself around my neck, sobbing wildly as she buried her face in my hair."Thank you so much. I can't believe you did that for me!""Uhmmm... It was... Nothing."My heart was racing in my chest. I turned to Mr. Wright and he was glaring at me.I knew that look. His brown eyes darkened. I was in trouble.Eliot was smiling at me from across the table and I gripped the wood hard till my knuckles whitened. I wanted to sink my fist in his smug face.Oh, Bridget! If only I could tell her what a snake Eliot was.Bridget pulled away from me and went back to Eliot and hugged him. My stomach lurched. I could feel the steak fighting with my insides."I need to go upstairs,"

Chapter 159

Nathan:My thumb brushed along her soft and supple lips. I fought every desire inside of me to rip the towel off her and feed my eyes with the sight of her naked body.My body hummed and groaned. I wanted answers about Eliot but nothing was stronger than my craving for her in this moment.“All right, little one. I’m listening.”She drew a deep breath through her parted lips and her sweet soft voice filled my ears.“Eliot caused a big fight between Bridget and me years ago. I thought they broke up but I was surprised to find out that they were still dating.”My lips turned down at the corners and I tilted her chin up with my thumb and index fingers.“Then what was he doing in your house that Sunday.”She hesitated, her eyes falling but I raised her beautiful face a little higher.“Eyes here, kitten. I need the truth.”“Promise you won’t be mad,” she whimpered and my heart skipped a beat. What exactly had happened that day?“No promises, kitten. Talk.”My voice was a little rougher and

Chapter 160

Enora:Miss Lopez? Was I in trouble? Did something happen?I hugged my laptop closer to my chest and walked towards the empty chair. Mr. Wright’s face was stiff; he didn’t even look at me as I sat down and set up my laptop.Bridget was sobbing lightly as she passed by. Maybe they had a fight or something and somewhere, in the back of my head I knew that it was because of Eliot.“There is a presentation that you will need to present to the board in the next two weeks. I need you to prepare.”My jaw dropped. Me? Presentation? Why did it have to be me?I was just about to ask questions but my mouth clamped shut as soon as I saw the solemnity on Mr. Wright’s face. I guess this wasn’t the time or place.We worked in a silence that was only broken by the light tapping of the keys on the keyboard.Every few minutes, I would steal a glance at his face. He was so stern and focused on his screen and the documents in front of him. His lips captured me. The sight of them made me tingle as the tho
