  • MARRIED TO MY EX HUSBAND'S BOSS    MEETING.

    (ALICE POV).The two long tables in the middle of our meeting room are filled with the two main teams that consisted of professional designers, procurement specialists, and so on… including I...the only intern.We are about to get a briefing about the next contract we'll be taking on.Alex walks in, wearing his designer's gray suit, his hair slick, and a face that shows nothing about his teasey side. His eyes wanders around the table and finally rests on mine briefly, a subtle smile etching on his face.My cheeks burn.“Good day everyone. I'm Mr. Alex, the new director.”Claps.“This will be a very brief meeting to discuss what we'll be doing. Every other detail will be in the next meeting.” He turn to the projected screen, and a slide came up.“We have a contract we need to secure . Our proposed client is Mr. Jade of Minerva homes. Somehow our proposals fell short twice, and we lost the contracts to Noyona.”He gestures and another slide slips in.“Our company is handling the constr

  • MARRIED TO MY EX HUSBAND'S BOSS    NEW DIRECTOR.

    (ALICE POV)I walked into the entrance, and my eyes first met a bunch of people in front of the notice board. It better not be my picture! I took a step towards them and stopped, whatever it is can wait.“Alice, the new director wants to see you.” Julia announced when I walked in.I paused, and walked toward her desk.“The new director?”“You didn’t see the new appointment on the notice board?”“Oh. I didn’t.” How do I tell her I was avoiding human contact because of the scandal? “But why?”“He requested to see the intern in our department.”I nodded. That makes sense, whoever it is must be wondering what an intern is doing in Mayfield Interior design. Or maybe it’s Claire. Claire? Is Claire the newly appointed director?I knocked gently on the door.“Come in,” a male voice said.I finally breathed. It wasn’t Claire. And now that I think of it, I clearly heard Julia say it's a he. but I must have been too shaken up to consider that.My eyes widened when I came in.“Alex?” My eyes danc

  • MARRIED TO MY EX HUSBAND'S BOSS    CROSSFIRE.

    (ALEX POV).I watched as Alice stand, doing a little dance of victory. She looked so beautiful. Leo must have let her win, but at least she's in a better mood than when she came back earlier.I cleared my throat, grabbing her attention. “I see you guys are already counting me out.” “She's a genius Alex, be warned.” Leo says.I scoff. “I'll be a challenge for her then.”“Come on man, try your best. You've never won against me, but she already did on her first try.”“Whatchu mean I've never beat you?” “You haven't. Please don't lie in front of your wife.” “I don't have time to argue.” I sit beside Alice. “I have to beat her first.”Leo is a monster. Amongst all our peers, no one ever beat Leo. And even if they did, he always has a crazy comeback for whoever it is.And that is who Alice won. I smiled. She must have felt like a genius for a sec.“Come on, let's play!” I nudged Alice, grabbing the gamepad.She took hers and we played. And I won, but I must say I was very impressed by he

  • MARRIED TO MY EX HUSBAND'S BOSS    MEETING LEO.

    (ALICE POV)My eyes met a pair of dreamy brown eyes and drippy wet hair. I turn away immediately.“You're back early.” Alex says, his wet feet slapping the floor as he still approached me.“Wait!” I stretch my hands behind me. “Cover up.”He laughed. “I'm not naked, wife.”I scoff. He's not naked? Wearing a thin wet underwear that traced the whole of him is the same as being naked.“It's not funny.”I suddenly felt a cold hand grip my outstretched arm, yanking me around. I open my mouth to protest, and sees he already has a towel around his torso. The stranger behind him too.“Were you scared?”“Of what?” I roll my eyes, and he chuckles.“You're back early?”“I clocked out from the site, so….”"You went to a site? Which?""The Moore's apartment complex. I assisted our senior designer."He nodded.My eyes wander towards the blond stranger behind him who is drying his wet curls, with hope that he isn't Alex's romantic partner. “Meet Leo. My cousin.” Alex introduces. Ah! They sure do h

  • MARRIED TO MY EX HUSBAND'S BOSS    AFTERMATH.

    (ALICE'S POV).Nobody looked at mel My eyes darted between the multitudes clamoring to get to their various departments. I stood in my black coat, my straightened hair gently cuddling my shoulders, and a thin frame pair of glasses... a very quick attempt to look a bit different.The coffee area was empty, and no one waved from there to hand me a coffee. I turned and headed towards the elevator."Alice?" Julia called from her desk immediately I stepped in."Morning Julia.""Morning Alice. Claire wants you in her office during lunch break." I nodded.I was being looked at now. Some were stealing glances at me, and whispers passed between desks. Of course, they were the only that knows my face, and knows I was the one that talked that night. Should I say that's one of the perks of being a newbie. I'm pretty sure it would have been worse if my face was known or circulated online, and because of that the gossip is already dead...almost.The only person that has my picture right now is Jor

  • MARRIED TO MY EX HUSBAND'S BOSS    ALCOHOL MISTAKES.

    (ALICE'S POV).I tossed uncomfortably as my phone rang, pulling a pillow to cover my ears. But whoever is calling, sure is persistent. I sat up, picking up the phone and it was Jordan.“Don’t tell me you are still asleep. It’s way past ten.” His background sounded noisy like he was in the market, which only added to my pounding headache.“I told you yesterday was a bad idea.”“It really was. I mean… you had a lot to say about Claire.”“What about her?” I rolled my eyes.“What? Don’t tell me you don’t remember?”“Remember what Jordan. My head is in a total mess right now… I don’t even remember my own name.”“Alice. Your name is Alice. You should go wash your face, and get some hangover medicine.”The last thing I’d be doing this morning is leaving my bed. I feel like being in the bed all day, except the headache won’t let me.“Come on Jordan, can you just tell me?”“I mean I was drunk too, so I only heard part of the many things you said. By the way, her husband was so pissed.”“Edward

    (ALICE) My heels clicked softly on the stairs as I gracefully descend into Alex’s gaze. The silk emerald green dress, the silver heels, the silver jewelries he got me and a sleek designers purse completed my look. “You look beautiful,” he said, extending his hands towards me to help me down.

    ( ALICE ) I tossed comfortably on the bed, stretching, slowly opening my eyes. I blinked. Once. Twice. The curtains were drawn over the windows, completely blocking the sunlight. That must be why the sunrise didn’t wake me. But something was off. My curtains are usually open. I paused, the scent

    (ALICE.) My eyes trailed up the double height ceilings. The glass, the furniture, the aesthetics. One word. Majestic. I quickly tore my eyes down, following Alex to the living room, my eyes doing a quick glance around the floor. I wanted my eyes to linger a bit, because who glances around a fuc

    (ALICE’S POV) “What was that?” I clicked my door shut, leaning on it for a sec. My hand flew to my face, rushing over to the mirror to see my red face. “I hope he didn’t see that!” “He’s pleading early as my husband? Seriously, did he have to whisper it? He totally caught me off guard.” I m
