LOVE AND LUST PRESENT DAY - NEW YORK
“We really need to stop meeting this way?”. Leila said, her face devoid of emotion. She had learnt how to hide whatever she was feeling and she was very good at it already. “Tell me! Why are you really here?” Adele shot back “Are you scared? The mighty Adele Cooper is scared?” Leila laughed “I stand to correct you, it’s no longer Adele Cooper, it is Adele Hasters. In case you have forgotten” Leila merely smiled as she walked away, “You both deserve each other” Immediately she stepped into the company, series of greetings followed after from Good morning boss to Good morning miss Leila. It made her ears sting, she was still not used to people greeting her like she mattered. She was their boss but they could tone down on the greetings. The director of the company interrupted her thoughts, “Welcome Miss Baker” She smiled when she saw him, his name was David Pouller and they had become friends in the two years since she became the head of Yungmin Enterprises, he respected he

LOVE AND LUST CHAPTER 48
“You killed it darling” Frank said with a smile as he went to hug Leila. She smiled back, she felt relieved because she found out that Mrs.Hasters was not among the executives that came back inside after the break. Maybe she had to attend to something. Maybe Gavin had something to do with it. She made a mental note to thank Gavin after the meeting, he was smiling at her all through her presentation and nodding to everything she was saying , he felt like her biggest cheerleader, it took her all her self control not to turn red. When everybody was seated, Armstrong cleared his throat loudly, “I personally agree with Miss Baker’s pitch” “It is a brilliant idea”, Montgomery added. Leila smiled, she was just worried for nothing. The meeting was not bad as she envisioned it. “I think we are done here. Everybody can leave. Miss Baker, please stay behind”. Gavin said loudly. As everybody filed out, Leila noticed some other people staring at her weirdly but she did not allow that to

“Leila, how’s my friend and my goddaughter?” Frank said sweetly. Nobody would know he was just complaining to her about Emily not keeping the baby. At least if he was not going to be a father, he would be a godfather and that was enough for him right now. He was kind of relived that she decided not to keep the baby. Leila looked at him sternly, “You are late. We don’t have much time to prep for the meeting. I am literally panicking. Gavin’s mom will be present for the meeting today. That woman hates my guts” “You don’t have to worry about anything. Anything for the mother of my goddaughter. I have your back and besides, who would hate you? You’re a sweetheart” He said while pinching her cheeks. Leila rolled her eyes, “Who told you I’m having a girl? I want a male child” “Don’t ruin this moment for me Leily, I have been wanting a girl child” Frank said with excitement ebbed on his face. “Frank! We don’t have time. We need to prepare, I think I’m going to pass out” She said pacing
LOVE AND LUST CHAPTER 46
Leila could not stop thinking about Gavin’s mom and how she spoke to her. Deep down, she knew the woman was not going to like her but she expected a more cordial relationship not utter rudeness. The car stopped in front of the company and she stepped out. “Good morning miss Leila”, the security guard said to her. It still felt weird how they had all started to respect her ever since she became the boss’ girlfriend. She was not going to lie, it felt good. “Just call me Leila”, She replied with a genuine smile. When she got to the office, Armstrong was leaning on the table, speaking in some foreign languages, it sounded Chinese to her or maybe Japanese, she could not be sure. He waved a hand to acknowledge her presence. She waved back. She brought out the notepad and started studying it, she did not want to sound dumb in the meeting today in front of the executive members and definitely not in front of Gavin. She was still a little bit shy around him till now. “Have you seen Frank
LOVE AND LUST CHAPTER 45
“I am not a kid! You cannot dictate my life for me and expect me to go through with whatever you want. I love Leila and she is the one I am going to marry” Gavin said, spitting out every word with anger. “Adele has the name and the looks suitable for the wife of the president of Julius & Myres. That other girl is a lowlife and to sum it up, she is an employee. How do you expect the board to take it!? I will not let a common girl be the end of you!”His mother retorted. The door opened at that moment and Leila stepped in. She had forgot her notepad at home and she needed to pitch in some ideas for the board meeting that was slated for that afternoon. On another day, she would have let go of it but the status had changed and since she was no longer Gavin’s secretary, she had to ask some questions from Frank and jotted it down in the notepad alongside what she wanted to pitch. She could not afford to show up without it. She heard arguments from the door and she was confused because n
