Romans de Nefertiti

CATHERINE'S POVImmediately I heard footsteps approaching me, I hurriedly wiped my tears and sniffled, I couldn't let anyone see me like this. I turned around and saw William, slowly approaching me."Oh you're back." I said as I pretended to be searching for something on my desk abs in the drawers."Babe, were you crying?" He asked, looking very astounded." No... I'm not..." I sniffled again. "I just came to the realization that I'll have to get used to this." I made my way to the bathroom, and from the sound of his voice I already knew he was following me behind."What do you mean?" He asked, watching me through the mirror reflection."I'll have to get used to you, ditching me for Vanessa." I said as I did a little touch up to my makeup to make sure it wasn't obvious to others that I just bawled my eyes out."Babe ... No ... No no please, don't think like that."" How can I not William? It's almost like I don't even know you any longer, I don't understand what you're schedule is lik

WILLIAM'S POVI approached the receptionist and let her know I was here for Vanessa. She directed me to the doctor's office, and I planted a light knock on the door. In response to the muffled "come in" I heard from the inside."Good day everyone." I greeted as I shut the door gently and took a seat next to Vanessa. She clung onto my arm tightly and rubbed her cheeks against my shoulders. "I missed you." She muttered. "Vanessa?..." I whispered to her as the Doctor was flipping through pages of paperwork."Mmm?""Can you please stop?" I whispered to her while looking down at her at my shoulders.She slowly pulled away from me and I turned to the doctor. "So why was a called in?" I asked, expecting to hear some very serious news, "Is the baby okay?""Well, yes... The foetus is doing just fine, who isn't, is your wife here..." The doctor responded, beaming a smile at Vanessa."My wif-- oh no no, she's not my wife ..." " Well, it seems as though you've been overstressing her... And tha

WILLIAM'S POV"Have the members of the board settled down at the board meeting room?" I asked Jorge as I ransacked my drawers in search of a few folders, in preparation for our upcoming meeting."Yes sir, they're all in there waiting." He responded." Alright," I responded as I placed the folder on the table. The door pushed open and Catherine walked through it, "What's with the hold?" She asked as she approached my desk." I'm searching for a particular document." I responded, flipping through the papers.She stole a glance at her wristwatch and let out a sigh of annoyance, "William, you should have done this earlier, the meeting was supposed to start about 10 minutes ago." She continued."Don't worry, I've got it." I responded, holding the sheet high up in the air. " Come on, let's go." I said as I stood up. As she and Jorge made their way out, u followed suite and we walked through the door, making our way to the board room."Good day everyone." I greeted with a smile on my face,

VANESSA'S POV"Zayne, you don't understand, William threatened me right before I went to bed, I could see the rage in his eyes, he was so angry, no doubt!" I panicked"I understand what you're on about, but this isn't enough reason for you to back out? we haven't even gone halfway, and our plan is making so much progress so far, plus William's mother loves you now, that's a bonus." Zayne spoke softly as he struck another ball into the hole on the pool table.I tapped the heel of my feet against the ground nervously, I was already freaking out but Zayne was so chill about everything, "So what about when my belly doesn't grow," I asked with my hands folded at my chest.Zayne had one eye shut tight, as he curved himself in order to target the ball and make the right shot with the pool stick and once again, no different from every other time, he made a shot and shot a smile at me, "That can be arranged for, Vanny." He responded, with his arms held open, and whining his waist to the sound

WILLIAM'S POVBy the time I drove back to the office, it was looking scanty already. I stole a glance at my wrist watch and it was already after office hours. As I made it into the building, I secretly prayed Catherine would still be there, waiting for me, at least that would make it easier for me to apologize for running off mid-cover.Before I could make it to the elevator, a voice came from now the hall, filling the echoing air with vibration, "Sir, madam Catherine has left the office already." I turned to my left and saw the janitor, with a mop stick in his grip.The heels of my shoes hit against the squeaky floors, as I approached him, "About how many minutes ago did she leave?""
