“Where do I begin?” He asks.
“How did you meet her? Did she work for you?” I ask. He nods.
“Ok. So Samantha and I have been friends for years now. Since I was a teenager and when dad he was thinking of opening a new company in New York I was excited because I had started learning about family business. I hoped to work for him. With Samantha’s help we were both able to convince dad to let us take charge of this new company. We were still teenagers so we couldn’t help with the building but dad let us think of different ideas. This was when our ‘love’ started. I think spending more time trying to mix business and school together made us closer than we were. We thought of the name for the new company until we decided A&S. Dad was glad we came up with a decision. Our plan was to become partners but my sister wasn’t too happy about this. She claimed Samantha was after the money but we were both teenagers I
“What are you doing here?. You’re supposed to_”“Be in jail right. It’s not difficult to break out when you have help” He moves closer. I turned to run but he grabs me. Scared I stay still and let the tears fall. He’s going to kill me. This is how I’m going to die. He caresses my face with a smirk.“I always wondered what you saw in him but I see it now. He’s rich and you want all of his money” He started. I shake my head no. I don’t want his money you asshole I thought.“Tell your husband I will be coming for what’s mine” He informs me. I nod with tears still falling.“Good girl” He drops me and I fall hand on the floor. I quickly stood up holding my phone as I run back to Andre who I see standing. I ran to his arms scared.“What took you so long. I_” He starts.“Wait” He pulls me away from him staring at my shaken s
Chapter one Brrring!!. The annoying sound of my alarm wakes me. It's 7:30 am and I have an interview by 8:30. So, I get up, go into the bathroom, brush my teeth, take my bath and get out, and in minutes, I am on my way. In about 25 minutes, I am in front of 'A&S LTD'. I get out of my car and practically run into the building with my slightly high stiletto heels which I am wearing to match my black suit. I get to the reception and tell the lady that I am here for the interview. She directs me to the elevator and instructs me to stop on the 3rd floor where the interview is to hold. I look towards the elevator and see that the doors are about to close. I look at my wristwatch and it is 8:28 am. I make a run for the elevator and before the doors close, I am able to get my fingers in. The doors reopen and I step in and see a handsome guy. He has blue eye
Chapter two Whoa!!. That was intense. I still can't believe I said all those things. Anyways, thank God that's over. I spend the rest of the day with Jade my best friend and Asher, her boyfriend. We laugh and talk, and I tell them about the interview, and just before we leave, Jade shows me her ring, a beautiful silver ring sparkling on the ring finger of her left hand . "Oh, it's nice. This must have cost a lot. What have I told you about wasting money?" I question, frowning at her. "It's not for fashion Freya" It slowly begins to dawn on me. "Then what's it for?" She looks at Asher and smiles. "Should I tell her or do you want to?" She asks him. "She's your best friend, so go ahead" he urges her. "Wait, I don't understand, tell me what?" "We're getting married" What! no
Chapter three As soon as I get up, I change into my gym wear and go downstairs to my workout room. I turn on the treadmill, get on it, and work out for twenty minutes. Next, I lift 20-pound dumbells and when I am done, I go back upstairs to my room, take a shower, shave and get out. I go downstairs in my robe for an apple, with a towel wrapped around my head. On getting to the living room, I turn on the TV and watch the news. It is 11:20 when I check my phone, only to see two messages from Andre. "Meet me at the new coffee place around cone Avenue"- 8:00 am "Let's meet there at twelve noon"- 10:00 am. Shit!. It’s almost twelve, don't wanna make a bad impression. I better get ready. I run upstairs, dry, and curl my hair. I don a short, wine-colored gown and black flats. I put my phone in my purse an
Chapter four I wake up on Sunday morning and pay a visit to 'THE GRILL' That is the name of the restaurant that I used to work. It’s a family restaurant owned by the 'Buyers'. I bump into Mrs. Buyers almost immediately after I enter the restaurant. "Freya!” she exclaims. “it’s so good to see you, did you get the job?" "Yes," I reply happily, and she smiles, giving me a warm hug. "I knew you could do it, congratulations" "Thanks" "But I must say, we will miss you here at the grill" "I know but I've got to go" "Ok, go say hi to Ross, he's in the kitchen" I sigh. Ross has been asking me out since I stepped into his restaurant for a job. The only relationship I see between us is a friendship, nothing more but he doesn't seem to get the message. I walked to the kitchen. &nbs
I couldn't help but think about my new boss, Andre. He a very attractive person who loved to have everything under control. I wondered how I was going to cope with being in the same work environment as he was. It couldn't be that bad besides he made it clear nothing could happen between us. My not essentially his type of woman. He probably made up that rule when he noticed I liked him."Thank you very much" I said for the thousandth time."I don't want you going to the bar" He said in a very demanding tone. I should have protested but a part of me loved how he sounded like he actually cares for me."I'm so sorry. Thank you for saving me" I thanked him. I can't imagine what would have happened if he didn't come to my rescue the time he did.I walked round my small room to get myself ready for my first day at work. My room isn't what you can actually call small but it isn't big either. Either ways i'm comfortable with the room and I think it's beautiful. It
I hurriedly make a new cup of coffee for Andre. I still can't believe he loves his coffee with a lot of sugar and milk in it. I knock on the door to his office and wait patiently for him to permit me to come in. I didn't hear him talk, he's probably not in his office anymore. As I turn to leave I heard him moan. He is really having sex in the office. I can't believe this. "Freya" The sound of my name from his lips gave me permission to enter. "Oh shit!. I'm so sorry!" I say dropping his coffee, running out of the office. He was masturbating in the office. Andre Smith masturbates, okay, but why did he look so shocked when I entered the office?. That can only mean one thing, he was thinking about me while in the act. "Mr. Smith seeks your attention," The secretary says, smiling at me. I smile back politely as I stand up. I walk nervously to his office. I can't get that image out of my head. I knock, hoping he i
Chapter sevenIt has been two weeks since the kiss and Andre's behavior has suddenly changed. He is normally nice, maybe not so nice but nice at least. However, since the kiss, he's been so different, snaps at me a lot, complains about anything I do and I don't find all these necessary. I didn't start the kiss that day so why is he being such a dickhead?.Baxter and I have gotten a lot closer in the past weeks. I think my so-called crush for my boss has suddenly vanished. Baxter has been a really lovely gentleman. He takes me for lunch. His smile is so charming. He's always very careful with me. I just don't think I can date him. He doesn't look like someone who could satisfy me. I mean he's super gentle with me like I'm an egg that will break if touched. I don't think someone like that can ever please me sexually. I don't mean to judge but with movies and novels I read I know I would love sex a little rough."W
