CHAPTER 31: ALL IS FAIR IN LOVE AND WAR
It had been two days since Jess had made her confession to Pete. She had initially been worried about the lie she had told, but after seeing Pete’s reaction, her worries faded. Pete had been furious so she knew that he would never have a reasonable conversation with William. On the other hand, William would never have a chance to tell Pete about their budding friendship and the kisses they had shared. This decision would do two big things for her. First, it would stop Mrs. Garcia from threatening her and second, it would eliminate William and discourage his recent aggressive advances. She was sure that after this William would stop pursuing her once and for all. She applauded herself for killing two birds with one stone, while convincing herself that her feelings for him would fade away.
Jess had written a formal resignation letter to William and she had sent it to his personal email address. She had

Amanda Garcia was sitting at a restaurant sipping on some tea. She was waiting to meet one of her old friends so that they could go somewhere together. It had already been ten minutes and Amanda was getting impatient. Her thoughts trailed off as she sat there reminiscing on the activities that had shaped the last month. She smiled when she thought of her son Peterson. They were getting along very well now and he called her every day. He also came to visit her once or twice a week. He had stopped coming to the house with his girlfriend and he claimed she was busy but Amanda knew she had managed to instill some fear in her. She had not expected the girl to be so easy to deal with but she was pleasantly surprised that fear had been the motivating factor. Although she had thought that everything was over, she had continued to investigate her so that she could stay one step ahead.It had turne
Jessica's Love Triangle CHAPTER 33: CLIMBING UP THE CORPORATE LADDER
NextGen was holding their annual company party at a ball room in a luxurious five star hotel. The hotel was accommodating all the employees plus many of their clients. Leaders from the subsidiaries also joined the party in what began to look like the biggest networking event of the year. Jess was dressed in a long, body hugging silver dress that Pete had insisted on her wearing, while he was dressed in a smart suit with a silver tie. He had come with her to the party and introduced her to many of his co-workers at the IT department as she introduced him to her colleagues in the PR department. For some reason, Pete seemed to be attached to her at the hip and he accompanied her everywhere. As the night progressed, the crowd began to thin as the top tier leaders went home. They had already become tired of mingling with the have-nots as they usually did this just as a show of unity. The subordinates began to relax and the party became a bit more upbeat. T
Jessica's Love Triangle CHAPTER 34: GHOSTS OF GIRLFRIENDS PAST
Warning: explicit content coming up Pete had been restless all through the NextGen party because Ben had reported to him that some of his men were missing. At first, they had thought it was just the common thefts that characterized their operations, but they knew there was trouble when the guys turned out dead without anything stolen from them. One of the bodies had a message attached to it to indicate that it was a revenge attack for the violence that they had experienced in the previous months. Pete had received a call that one of the other gangs that were under attack, had called for a meeting to discuss a joint attack. This was when he had left the party to attend the meeting. They had gone with Ben and two other men, and when it was time to meet the other leaders, the two men remained outside. Ben and Pete had waited for a long time until they had almost given up. Then a bloody
Jessica's Love Triangle CHAPTER 35: THE LAST SUPPER
Warning: explicit content coming up The day after the NextGen party, Jess had spent all day working uneventfully. The evening had taken a twist when Pete had picked her up in the company of a woman he identified as Ella. He had gone ahead to assault the woman when he thought that Jess was out of sight, and then he had come upstairs as though nothing had happened. Jess was uneasy about the situation but she decided to ask him questions indirectly. He had just come out of the shower and was wearing a pair of shorts and a vest. Jess had just finished with supper and the table was set for dinner. Jess had showered earlier on while dinner was getting ready. “Pete, what happened to your car? You picked me up with a different car,” she said. “Ben had to run some errands so Ella gave me a ride. I w
Jessica's Love Triangle CHAPTER 36: MAJOR RESTRUCTURING
It was the first day of the official hotel field work and the staff at NextGen were excited to be going on holiday. Each employee had been given several allowances that allowed them to purchase flights, taxis and every other convenience that a regular traveler would need for a comfortable visit. They were also given a small allowance that would cover extra services like massages and spas. Each employee was dispatched the night before so they would all check into their hotels at the same time. Jess was not as excited as the rest of the staff because she had experienced this kind of work before with William. She had planned on checking in in the afternoon after her doctor’s appointment which was scheduled for the morning. Pete took her to the appointment and then he dropped her at the airport for her flight. She slept all through the flight and it wasn't until she was checking out her luggage that she noticed that William was on the same flight.&n
Jessica's Love Triangle CHAPTER 37:DYSFUNCTIONAL FAMILY
“In love with two men? This I had to see for myself,” Leslie shouted over the phone. She had placed a video call to Jess immediately after she saw her call. Jess had just taken a nap after the most relaxing massage, when she was woken up by Leslie’s call.“Why are you so excited? It was a hypothetical question,” she said.“And you suddenly hypothesized about being in love with two men? Girl please. This is Leslie you are talking to,” Leslie said. They both giggled and then Jess sat up.“Tell me about him,” Leslie asked.“There is nothing to tell. He is just a good friend who told me that he has feelings for me. I kinda like him too but I’m pretty sure I shouldn’t be feeling this way,” Jes
Jessica's Love Triangle CHAPTER 38: IN HOW MANY WAYS CAN THE HEART BREAK?
Jess opened the door to her apartment and the silence was too loud. This was the 12th day in a row that she had gone without seeing Pete and she missed him. He called her once in a while and they had met once at work but he claimed that he was too busy with work. She had asked him if things would be easier if she came to the penthouse but he had refused. He said that he was barely there as well because work took him everywhere. She took out her phone and talked with a few friends then she video called William. They talked for almost half an hour as had become their habit and then she went to make dinner. When she had showered and eaten, she decided to call Pete before she went to sleep. His phone rang a few times but he didn't pick up. She got into bed and watched a movie for a few minutes before she tried again but this time the phone was switched off. This was unusual for Pete because he rarely ignored her. Jess began to think back to the last month
Jessica's Love Triangle CHAPTER 39: WAS THE HEART MADE TO BE BROKEN?
Ella and Pete remained frozen as they watched Jess walk away. Pete was feeling like his whole world was crumbling in front of his eyes. All the issues with his parents and the trouble this was posing in the business and now this. The common denominator in all the problems in his life was Ella. He looked at her standing there innocently, as though she had not just cost him his relationship. He now hated her more than ever before. Ella saw the look in Pete’s eyes and she knew she had made a huge mistake. She tripped and fell on the floor, as she tried to walk away from him but he caught up with her in a few quick steps. He kicked her painfully in the stomach and then he pulled her up so that she was standing. He slapped her twice and then he drew her close because another resident was passing by and he didn’t want any trouble. He nodded to the passerby and then whispered in Ella’s ear before he pushed her away. “Thank Amanda the
