After You Broke My Heart Chapter Sixteen
I looked around, and there was nothing regular about this lounge. “Thank you, though.”He lifted a brow. “For what?”“For being kind to me.” I looked at the glass in my hand. “Most men like you wouldn’t have helped me, even starting from the club. “And what kind of man am I, Rita Morgan?” There was something about the way he said my full name.“A really wealthy man…” He laughed. “No… no. The Dominic Sterling.” His laughter increased.“You’ve heard people call me that too?”I nodded with a faint smile. Then my voice calmed. “I’m still trying to get used to everything,” I said.“Everything?”“Starting all over.” I looked around. “A new job, and trying to forget someone I had spent years loving. His expression softened. “There’s no right way to start over. It’s different for everyone.”“You think so?”“I know so.” He placed his glass on the table. “Just do it one day at a time.”I smiled. “That sounds simple.”“It isn’t.”We both laughed. For the first time since I

I stood there awkwardly, my eyes shifting between his eyes. Then he spoke.“Were you sent to get the files?”“What files?”He stared at me. Then I remembered that I had actually come here without an appointment. “Can I please come in?” His expression remained unreadable as he stepped aside without a word. I had imagined this moment several times before walking up here. I expected him to ask why I went back to talk to the man that hurt me. I expected anger for leaving him standing there until his bodyguards came. He closed the door as I walked further inside.I was too tense to sit down, so I stopped and watched as he walked towards the mini bar. He opened one of the cabinets and pulled out a bottle of wine. “Do you want something to drink?” He turned to me.I shook my head. “No. I’m fine.”Then he watched my trembling fingers a second longer and poured a drink regardless. He walked closer and my pulse hastened. Then he handed me a glass.“Here,” he said. “Something to

I frowned. “Why do I need Leah to tell me what decisions to make?”She looked so nervous. “Because she also knows how much Dan has hurt you.”“Zara, you’re not listening to me.”She dialed Leah’s number. “You’re emotional right now. I don’t want you making any wrong decisions.”I looked across the street at the shop. Dan was gone. “I wasn’t making any decisions. I just wanted to know who he was talking about.”“And what would knowing do for you?”I opened my mouth to speak, but the words were stuck. Then I gave it a slight thought.Maybe she was right. Maybe it was another one of Dan’s ways to manipulate me into forgiving him, like he always did. Leah picked. “Zara, where are you guys?”“Outside the coffee shop. You won’t believe Rita actually came back to see Dan.”“What?!!!”I hissed. “It’s not like that.”“Just get here first, maybe she’ll listen,” Zara said. “On my way.” Leah ended the call.I shot her a look. “That really wasn’t necessary.” I folded my arms.“Are

I cleaned the dust off my clothes and rushed into the coffee shop. Nick followed me in and the moment he stepped in, everyone paused. They stared at him in surprise wondering what such a high-profile man was doing in a random coffee shop, and without his body guards too. He didn’t seem bothered. I scanned the place for Dan, but he was gone. Then I went to the reception area.“Excuse me, ma’am,” I said as I breathed heavily. “There was a man at that table.” I pointed towards the glass. “Where is he?”She opened her mouth to speak, then I saw Dan walk out of the bathroom hallway. His eyes met mine. “Rita.” He hurried towards me then slowed when he saw Nick.Dan locked eyes with Nick for longer than a second, like he knew him. Then he turned to me.“Rita, please come with me.”I glanced at Nick once, looking worried for me. His eyes followed me until Dan and I got to a table. Suddenly, I saw a fleet of cars stop outside the coffee shop. Four bodyguards walked in, they must’ve he

I got home later that evening around 4:15 p.m. and my entire body ached from sitting at a spot for a few hours. It wasn’t something I was used to yet. I carefully took out my laptop and placed it on the table before dropping my bag to the floor. Then I kicked off my shoes before collapsing onto the mattress. First day had been exhausting. There were so many faces and names to remember, and more responsibilities than I had expected. But despite how tired I was, a smile still formed on my lips.At least I got a job now. I shifted in bed to pull the duvet up to my shoulders, then my phone vibrated. My eyes were already getting heavy, but I picked it up anyway thinking it was a text from Leah or Zara. I frowned when I saw an unknown number. Then I clicked it.“Please don’t block this number. I need to tell you something.”I stared at it, then texted back. “Who is this?”A message popped up. “It’s Dan. I beg you, Rita. This is important.”My body tensed up immediately. I reall

He was walking towards me with two men dressed in suits behind him.He slowed down the moment his eyes met mine. His expression barely changed but his gaze lingered a second longer.“Miss Morgan.” He stopped in front of me.“Good morning, Mr. Sterling.”A corner of his lip moved. “How’s your first day going?”“Good.” I avoided his eyes.“Hmm.” He looked at me for another second. “Just good?” I forced a smile. “It’s actually going better than I had expected.”“That’s good.”I was about to walk past him then he spoke again. “Are you headed somewhere?”“I need to grab some coffee, Sir.”“Then let me not keep you waiting.”I smiled politely. “Thank you.” Then I walked away.When I ordered my coffee, I sat at a corner waiting. The place was almost empty like the staff there barely drank coffee.I was supposed to be happy in that moment but my chest suddenly felt heavy after Nick had asked if I was okay. Maybe it was because my mind had gone back to yesterday. Seeing Dan’
