Chapter 61

Enora: I was at my laptop when I heard a knock at the door. I took a deep breath and said nothing. I didn't want to see him. That was something that I was certain of. The knock came again but I continued typing away at my laptop, ignoring the knocking for all I was worth. Finally, the door creaked open. "Enora?" He came into my room without permission. I guess that was count one on the official list of charges I was holding against him. "What do you want?" I asked coldly, not turning around to look at him but rather focusing on the spreadsheet that I had displayed on the screen. "You haven't eaten all day. I have ordered dinner. You should eat something. It's for your own good." I scoffed, just loud enough for him to hear, without turning my head. "I won't be eating with you. You don't have to worry about that. L be going out to eat tonight. Alone." I could imagine the dumbfounded expression on his face as I grabbed my jacket and threw it over what I was wearing. He didn't

Chapter 62

Enora:My jaw slackened and my eyes searched around the room. Shock and anger mingled and waved through me.He... He was here?"Where are you? What are you even doing here?"He chuckled slightly and a frown crossed my face. There was nothing funny about being a stalker. This was weird and out of turn, especially for him."This isn't funny. Where? Are? You?""Look up."I did and there he was, sitting at a table a few meters away from me, in a black shirt and trousers.He waved but I didn't dare return it. He was crazy. He had to be for him to have the audacity to follow me all the way here."Miss, have you decided on what to eat?"The waiter was back and I was cornered: use the insane amount of money he sent to me to pay for my meal or leave and send it back to him."You know what? I don't think I'll be eating here anymore. There's nothing wrong. I just lost my appetite."The waiter looked astonished as I got up and so did Mr. Wright. It served him right.The evening breeze cooled my a

Chapter 63

Enora: My body felt weak. His angry eyes drank me all in and I felt his body press into me."Don't think that I am not mad at you for just walking out on me. You have been acting strange and I want to know why."My jaw nearly reached the ground. I was acting strange? Hew was the one who was so cold to me yesterday and suddenly pulled a lever today and kissed me out of the blue. Did I really have to mention that I was still mad that I saw Crystal with him?The elevator door sprung open, and I should have known better than to expect a nice casual walk to the penthouse door."Can you stop carrying me like this?!"I was on his shoulder once again and was beating it as hard as I could he opened the door.As soon as he got in, he locked the door and placed me down.He was so infuriating! As soon as my feet touched the tiled living room, I bolted for my room.The door locked behind me and I twisted the key in the lock and sank to the floor. This was getting ridiculous."Enora, open the door

Chapter 64

Nathan:My bedroom door closed behind me and I was in my room alone. She knew. She was on to me and it was all because I couldn’t keep myself together around her.Whisky wasn’t going to solve this one. I had a feeling that this was going to go horribly.Fuck! I should not have gone to the restaurant after her but I just couldn’t take it. I just couldn’t take the thought of someone else with her. I couldn’t bear the thought that she was so mad at me that she would be in someone else's company.Damn it!I plopped myself down on the chair and placed my hand on my chin. God, what was I going to do?My eyes stared into the void. My mind was filled with thoughts that whizzed past me at the speed of light.Soon, there was a knock at my door. I jerked and stared at the door as it opened with a creak and Enora popped her head inside, freezing as she saw me on my chair, looking at her.“Enora…”“I just came to get your clothes ready for tomorrow. I don’t want to be late again.”The way she cut

Chapter 65

Enora:I was barely able to sleep last night. All I could think about was the anger on Mr. Wright's face.Damn it, Enora! You went too far. You were mad but you should have been more careful with your speech.I wrangled myself out of bed and waddled to the bathroom. It was a cold bath. Perfect for waking me up properly. As the water wey my hair, all I could think about was the anger on his sculpted face, the way his eyes burned and his handsome lips pursed together.What was wrong with me? Why did I have to mess things up?“He messed things up too,” my inner voice chimed in.Nothing could convince me that his stalking last night wasn’t just crazy but I felt I had said way too much.Water trailed on the floor behind me as I stepped out of the bathroom. As I stood in the mirror, dressing up, I observed my body.I was mad at him but I missed him. I missed his kisses and the way he touched me and fucked me. Maybe I should apologize?My reflection stared back at me, clad in a black peplum

Chapter 66

Enora:No! No! No!This... This couldn't be! How!Blood drained from my face and I felt a chill ripple through me. My fingers, my whole body felt stiff.My eyes didn't blink, and I could feel it drying up and stinging, but I didn't care.I wanted to cry so badly but I couldn't. My heart was beating in slow motion and each beat shook me."Miss Lopez?"I didn't know when I sprang back into action and slammed the laptop closed as I heard the door open."Miss Lopez, we have more work for..."I swerved on my chair and was face to face with a stunned Ms. Catherine."Hey. I... I'll get the work done."I reached for the papers in her hands but she didn't give them to me. Her eyes were wide as she searched my face."Enora... "This was the first time she had ever used my first name."... Are you sure you're alright? You look quite pale."The smile I mustered was so fake but it was all I could manage. She saw right through me but I wasn't about to admit that something was wrong."I'm fine. Just

Chapter 67

Nathan:Enora’s hand was tightly wrapped in mine as I pulled her down the staircase. i noticed the eyes that were looking at us as we left the building. One of them had to be the culprit. I knew it and I was dying to find out who it was.She got inot the car and I got back behind the steering wheel. The ires screeched on the asphalt as I reversed and headed down the street. The space between us was painfully silent. All I could think about was the picture that I had seen. It was taken the day I took her on the dining table.I drew a deep breath. the picture was crystal clear. The way we were wrapped in pure passion was undeniable. I couldn’t believe that we were being watched. How was that even possible. I had no security cameras installed in my penthouse for maximum privacy.We turned the corner and I was still lost in deep thought. Maybe I shouldn’t be taking her back to the penthouse. If someone was watching us, it was likely that the culprit was waiting there.“Mr. Wright?–”He so

Chapter 68

Enora:I clung to his arm as we took the elevator. This was the craziest work trip I had ever gone on. I could only hope that this was the last.As we gave the receptionist our keycard, I saw a frown spread across her face. She glanced at our suitcases and frowned even more. I wasn’t going to be flattered that she missed me. But I would certainly miss our silent rivalry.The car was still in the parking lot, and I watched Mr. Wright intently as he hauled everything into the boot. His eyes glistened in the evening sun and I felt my heart skip a beat.I loved this man. It felt too early to say it but I felt my heart go out to him.Mmmm… I just didn’t know how I was going to tell this to my best friend. I.. I needed more time. I had always been awful when it came to boys and my feelings. It could just be a fling. It was probably going to go away on its own.That’s right, Enora. Don’t get too attached.“What are you thinking about?”His deep, silky voice caught my attention, and I was tug

Chapter 69

Enora:We hauled our bags into the reception and found Adam there.His eyes looked tired and a bit of a mess. I felt guilty. Mr. Wright had given him an entire week off and now I had to cut it short."Mr. Wright, Miss Lopez," he greeted courteously, handing Mr. Wright a card. "I got the most comfortable suite. It's on the top floor in the West Wing.""Thank you, Adam," Mr. Wright said with a tired look on his face. I wonder if he also felt bad for cutting his break a little short.Adam took my bags from me and we all headed to the elevator.I couldn't explain it, but the tension felt high.My eyes stole a brief glance at Adam and I saw his jaw tightly clenched, revealing his jawline. My stomach churned. He was mad. I knew it!It felt like forever before we got to the top floor. A sigh of relief escaped my lips when I heard the elevator ping at our stop.Adam got out and led the way and the rest of us followed him. The tension seemed to grow. Mr. Wright didn't even look at me. I follow

Chapter 70

Enora:I was silent throughout the entire visit. I was so nervous. My fingers gripped my skirt and I was silently taking deep breaths.Why was I even nervous? I wasn’t guilty. I was the victim. I was innocent. I didn’t have to be anxious.Sadly, my brain couldn’t process that. The police were actually here. At the gala, when Mr. Romeo tried to rape me was completely different.“Miss Lopez…”As I pulled myself back to reality, all eyes turned to me. My heart skipped a beat. How long had I zoned out?“...could you please tell us what exactly was on the picture?”That was it? I felt like I was going to drop dead. My eyes pleaded with Mr. Wright. Why couldn’t he tell them? Why did it have to be me?“I… I…”“You don’t have to worry, Miss Lopez, everything said here is in strict confidence. You will not have to worry about information being leaked.”My knuckles turned white as I gripped my skirt even harder. I was more concerned with the fact that the police wanted me to tell them it was a
