Nicole

"Good morning, sir..." I greeted the department head, who was focused on the papers in front of him and didn’t look up when I walked into his office, even when I greeted him. I recognized that ash-gray hair and gray suit, which made my eyes slightly widen. He was the guy who had helped me get into the building earlier. I had no idea that he was actually our department head. But then I smiled as I felt a wave of relief knowing I’d be working with someone who seemed nice and compassionate.

I made my way to his desk, my heels clicking on the floor, breaking the silence of the room. I stood there, waiting for him to look up and greet me back.

“Good morning, Miss Summers. Great to see you again…” he said smoothly, finally glancing up from his paperwork.

"Hi, Sir..." I looked at the nameplate on his desk and was taken aback when I saw his name. Andrew Kramer, the guy Savanna was talking about, and she had a crush on. “Andrew…” his name rolled off my tongue, and the amused

    Chapter 031NicoleSavanna burst into the room, slapping her hand on my desk. "Hey, it’s lunchtime already!" she declared. "Take a break, Nicole. It’s only your first day, but you’ve been grinding so hard. At this rate, your face is going to get stuck like that," she chuckled, pointing at my frown.I sighed, rubbing my temples. She leaned in closer, studying my face, which made me a bit uncomfortable."Trouble on your first day?" she joked, playfully messing up my hair. "Don’t stress about him. He’s into you, trust me."I rolled my eyes at her teasing, and she laughed, pulling me up from my chair."You’re just hungry. Let’s grab some food," she said, dragging me toward the elevator and heading our way down to the ground level.Once we settled at a table in the bustling cafeteria, I leaned in and whispered, "Do you think it’s okay to ask for an advance on my salary?""What?" she asked, staring at me in disbelief. "I don't know if that's okay. You can ask Cara about it," Savanna said wh

    Chapter 029NicoleI stood calmly in front of the doors, a nervous smile fixed on my face as I waited for the elevator to reach the tenth floor, where I had previously been interviewed. The guy who helped me earlier was standing on my right, a middle-aged man in between us. I turned to look at him, and I noticed that he was busy typing on his phone.The elevator dinged, and the doors opened on the ninth floor. The handsome guy stepped out, not even glancing at my side. I opened my mouth to thank him again, but the doors slid closed after three more people got out.Upon reaching the tenth floor, I exited and immediately spotted Cara at her desk. "Good morning, Miss Cara," I greeted her, and when she looked up, I noticed her eyes sparkled, a clear sign that she remembered me. "I'm Nicole Summers, the newly hired employee. It's my first day today.""Oh, hello, Miss Summers," she greeted, her smile radiating more warmth than when we first met. "I'm really pleased that the HR department re

  • Forced Married with the Ugly Billionaire   First day

    Chapter 028Nicole"N-Nathan, what are you doing?" I tried to move away from him again, but his hold tightened on my chin."I said, stay still...'' he murmured, and I felt as though my heart almost stopped when his gaze darted on my lips, and I absentmindedly licked the bottom with my tongue, and I saw how his Adam's apple bobbed up and down.I flickered my eyes, and I met his gaze, captivated by the depth of his striking blue eyes. It was incomprehensible to me how a man of such remarkable appearance could be subjected to ridicule and scorn by those who were only interested in the amount he was hiding in his pocket. And how could someone like him be rejected by his own father?"Have you..." he paused, moved away, and cleared his throat before he went on. "Have you secured a job?" he asked, letting out a breath.I nodded, diverting my gaze from his in an effort to steady my racing heart."Well, the Maxwell Group contacted me again earlier, and they informed me that I actually passed t

  • Forced Married with the Ugly Billionaire   Accusations

    Chapter 027Nicole"Please, you two, stop! I don't even know what you're talking about," I said, trying to stay calm. "We both know I'm innocent of the accusations you are making. So, please..."As I stepped away from them, I wiped the corner of my mouth with my thumb."Don't pretend that you know nothing, Nicole!" Sylvia growled as she attempted to grab my arm again, but I quickly yanked it away, sending her a deathly glare, but the look she was sending me was more intense. "You stole Homer from her! He left Kendra, and she lost her baby because of it! This is all your fault!"What?I tilted my head to look at Kendra, who was still sobbing loudly next to her. I glanced down at her belly with narrowed eyes. So, it was indeed true that she was pregnant.But what exactly happened? What caused her miscarriage?What was the reason Homer left her?It couldn't be me. I haven't seen him since that dinner party at Monroe's residence."What now? Cat got your tongue?" Sylvia scoffed. "You can't

  • Forced Married with the Ugly Billionaire   New Job

    Chapter 026NicoleI sighed as I exited the Woolworth Group building. I had just completed an interview with them, but I wasn't sure if they were interested in having me join their company. I did my best to answer all the questions, but they informed me to wait for their call to know the result.I had interviews with several companies earlier, but none offered a salary that aligned with my needs. It wasn't about being picky; I just needed a higher income right now to cover the costs of Andrea's treatment. I had withdrawn all my savings and now need to begin saving again.I used to think I could take any job, but I've come to realize that it was not that simple. A modest paycheck would barely cover my food expenses, let alone my other bills. I also have to consider bus fare, toiletries, and, of course, Andrea's needs.If only I had landed a position at Maxwell Group, I wouldn't be facing this predicament.With another deep sigh, I continued my walk to the bus stop. I planned to visit A

    Chapter 025NathanMy thoughts were consumed by the image of Nicole pressed against the bathroom wall, her legs lifted and wrapped around my waist. I imagined holding her close as she softly moaned in my ear, reminiscent of that unforgettable night we shared. I longed to kiss the beautiful skin of her neck, savoring every moment.Fuck it!Why couldn't I control these thoughts? My mind relentlessly fixated on the desires I had for her and the things I wanted to do to her again.A cold shower was what I needed right now, so I turned the shower on, but warm water came out, which cascaded over my hair, my face, and my entire body, hitting me with a force that was almost overwhelming, invigorating my muscles.Yet, my thoughts still lingered on my wife.The mere idea of her ignited a rush of desire within me. As the water streamed down my bare skin, I felt an undeniable arousal.I pressed my forehead against the wall, allowing the water to trickle down my back. Memories of my wife and her e

  • Forced Married with the Ugly Billionaire   Wild Thoughts

    Chapter 024NicoleI felt a smile spread across my face as I envisioned Nathan in my dream. We were at the beach, and he was playfully chasing after me while I tried to evade him. I paused, preparing for him to catch me, raising my hands high as I turned to face him. However, my expression shifted to one of shock when I noticed he was carrying another woman—the one in red from the dinner party.I gasped and opened my eyes, my brows furrowing as I recalled Nathan with that woman in my dream. Why the hell did that man appear in my dream?I yawned and stretched my arms while gently sitting up, only to realize that this was not my bed. My eyes widened in disbelief as I scanned the expansive room around me.Wait, expansive room?My mind began to piece together about what happened yesterday. I had been utterly exhausted after returning home from my interview and had fallen asleep on the couch without even having a meal.But what happened after that?Suddenly, his voice echoed in my mind, so

    Chapter 023Nicole"Nathan!" I called out to him, but he had already gotten in the car. "Nathan!"My eyes widened as the vehicle began to pull away. I contemplated pursuing it, but then I felt my phone vibrate in my bag. Diverting my attention from Nathan, I hesitantly answered the call as I watched the car disappear from my sight. "Hello…?""Is this Miss Nicole Summers?" the woman from the other end asked."Yes, what can I do for you?""Well, I am reaching out on behalf of Wellington Group. I am pleased to inform you that you have successfully passed our screening process, and we would like to invite you for an interview today," the woman at the other end of the line informed me.Oh, another interview? Great!Even though I was still grappling with disappointment from my previous interview, and my body was slightly trembling, I think I had to attend this one."Thank you for informing me. I will head there shortly," I responded before ending the call. With a sigh, I shoved my phone bac
