Chapter 41Hazel’s POVThe drive back home was silent. I did not know what to say and neither did Lucas. He drove quietly, not even a hum could be heard. I was not going to start a conversation because I did not know what to say. I stared at my reflection through the rear view mirror. My reflection stared right back at me. I looked tired and worn out. Noah was stressing me and I did not know who to talk to. I could not tell Lucas, well he knew, but I was not going to discuss another man with him, especially if the said man was his competitor.The silence continued until we arrived at Lucas’s house. He switched off the ignition at the gate. He did not honk at the gateman to open so I was left there wondering what was happening.“We need to talk.” He said while looking at me. We were still in the car but outside the compound.My heart started beating faster. Questions started running through my mind.

Chapter 42Hazel’s POVI arrived at the office in time. The previous night had been relaxing. After dinner, we had played games then Lucas had told the children bedtime stories before tucking them in. It had felt like a real family and I wished it were so. I wished Lucas was the one my heart was singing for, we would have made the cutest and best family.

The weird thing was that they were not gossiping in groups as they always did every morning before starting to work. Today each and everyone of them was in their seats working or pretending to. The computers were on, the printers were humming and there was no chatter. Coleen, the ‘office walker’

She did not want want to associate herself with the gossip milling around. She knew in her heart that it was her they were talking about. Over the past few weeks she had developed a thick skin and was almost not fazed by the talks that were going around.

"Are you okay?" Noah asked as he carried Hazel from the room she had been in."My head hurts." Hazel replied.

Noah said.Hazel was too nauseous to ask whose car they were going to. Or maybe she did not care and was just glad to have been rescued.
