In the few stunned seconds, it took for her brain to absorb what she had just heard, Lisa’s heart jackhammered against her chest, and she stood glued on the verge of a heart attack. If what she had just heard was accurate, she had little doubt Chris would listen to it soon, if he hadn’t already realized it. Fuck. Is it really so obvious? She realized that accepting his job as his secretary would draw attention, but she never expected Ross to be one of the first people who knew. What would she say now to justify herself?

Whatever excuse she came up with wouldn’t change the reality that she had no business being his secretary. Not with her family’s financial resources to assist her in starting a business, or why did she only bring up the topic of a breakup a day after she started her employment at Remington Atlantic? She should have guessed that one did not have to be Sherlock to figure out something was fishy.

    “Mason?” Lisa muttered in a whisper. “W..what is going on here?” She asked, looking around fearfully. “Where are Chris and my friends?“We are here.” They chorused, stepping out into the light from their hiding place.“What is all this?” She asked, breathing heavily. “Did you all know about this?”Mason swallowed, shifting on his knee. “Baby, I know you are confused and probably angry right now, but I promise it was all my doing. I made them join hands with me. I am sorry.” He held her gaze.“Mason. This is... I wasn’t expecting this.”“I know. And I know messed up, and I feel really dumb about it. I should never have treated you the way I did. You're absolutely right. You deserve someone who will always fight for you, and I want to be that person, if you'll give me another chance.She didn't know what to say or how to answer. Tears filled her eyes, making them feel hot, and she was afraid they might spill over.“I love you a lot,” he continued very strongly. “I love you so much that

    “Have I ever told you how jealous I am of you?” Desire asked Lisa as they stepped out of the shop closing for the day.“What do you mean?” She asked.Desire pointed at Mason who was standing by the car with a flower in hand. “There. You went from Jaylen to the utmost breathtaking man who doesn’t mind withstanding the pain of nature just to see you. How do you do that?”Lisa rolled her eyes playfully. “Don’t be silly. I will see you tomorrow. Bye!” She waved at her.Mason raised his body slightly and stretched out the flower to her. Lisa collected it gingerly. She had thought he would stop coming after she ignored him to go with Jaylen. Also, none of her friends were willing to tell her what ensued between them and Mason when he brought the flowers over.He has been trying really hard to make her see him by indulging in little gestures. Lisa wasn’t certain about the next step to take with him yet. There are still many doubts about what he intends to offer her. The love is evident, but

    Mason shifted backwards wondering what the ladies would do to him. Amber is the only one he is familiar with.“Is everything okay ladies? Is there a problem?” He asked.“There might be after we have this discussion,” Amber replied. “These are also Lisa’s friends and I doubt you knew that. Meet Trina, Jennifer and Jade. Guys, this is Mason.”“Nice to meet you.” He said waving at them.“He does look breathtaking.” Jennifer murmured unable to hide her delight.“Smells nice too.” Trina added.“He is right in front of us. Can we behave?” Amber rebuked.“Come and have a sit.” Jade said to Mason. “When Lisa said you were coming, we thought it would give us a good chance to talk to you. So, you have nothing to worry about. We just want to have a conversation as adults.”Mason nodded cautiously sitting on the couch. Just in case he would need to bolt. Women aren’t nice when they choose to gang up against a person. He would hate to be their victim.“Will you like something to drink?” Jennifer a

    “Lisa!” Her friends screamed as they hugged her tightly.Lisa laughed heartily at the sight of her friends. It felt like forever since she had last seen them.Just as the girls had promised they came down to the valley to spend some time with her. Each one taking a leave of absence from their workplace.“I am so happy to see you. You look well.” Trina said, caressing Lisa’s cheeks. “Must be the works of a certain mister.” She winked, causing the others to laugh along.Amber held onto her hand like she feared she would disappear. “I have missed seeing your face. Please, Lisa, never leave without prior notice ever again. Nothing feels the same without you around.”“That is so true.” Jennifer and Jade chorused.“I miss you all so much.” Lisa cooed as she lunged at them again. “Come on in you all. I have a lot to tell you.”The girls seemed eager to hear what Lisa had to say. But she took her time instead, served them drinks and allowed them to settle before dropping the bombshell.“Mason

    Lisa’s first instinct at the sight of Mason was to slam the door in his face, but her hand slid off the door instead and she stumbled backward in utmost shock.“W…what are you doing here? How did you get here?” She stuttered.Mason took two cautious steps into the house to see if she would yell at him to go back. When she didn’t utter a word, he invited himself in and shut the door.“Lisa, listen, I am sorry if my being here is pissing you off, but I haven't been able to do anything without you. I know…..”His words didn’t get to leave his lips as Lisa jumped at him kissing him aggressively. Mason lost all focus and wrapped his arms around her tightly, returning the energy. They charged at each other like their entire life depended on it. He ripped off the dress she had on and in less than a second their clothes were scattered around the room.“Baby…..” Mason called out panting.“Don’t say anything.” She let out a shaky voice. Her pupils dilated with lust.He harkened to her words and
