Jane’s POV

His hand hadn’t left my thigh since the moment he started driving.

“Where are we going?” I whispered finally, breaking the silence that had been sitting too heavily between us.

Kennedy’s jaw ticked once, his eyes still on the road. “Somewhere safe.”

That word made my stomach knot. Safe? From what? From who?

“Safe?” I repeated, turning my head to look at him. “Safe from who?”

He glanced at me briefly, then looked forward again. “Don’t worry about that now.”

“Don’t worry?” I let out a half-laugh. “Kennedy, someone was watching us. How do you expect me to be calm…”

“Jane.” His voice cut sharp, a whip against the thick air between us. “I said I’ll handle it.”

I stared at him, my words drying up.

The rest of the drive was thick with silence, broken only by the hum of the engine.

When we finally slowed, I looked up to see a tall, glass-walled building rising above the city.

Kennedy pulled into the underground garage, the guard at the gate instantly nodding and waving him throug

  • MY NEW HR IS THE MAN I SLEPT WITH.   Chapter 100- Slowly Losing My Mind

    Jane's POV It has been up to a week and I have been avoiding him. Kennedy. Ben has been watching me even if he keeps trying not to be seen. He was scary the last time I saw him and he was serious about his warning. I did not want anyone to get hurt, not because of me, not anymore. The most annoying part of it all is that Ben has been asking me to hang out with him but I keep refusing. To stay away from Kennedy is one thing but to go back to this monster was something I had no idea if I was going to cope with or not.I woke up as I was not feeling like doing anything. Each day passing by I just wanted to disappear. I sat on my bed as I stared into empty space. Soon I got out of bed and looked in the mirror, I had dark circles under my eyes and my hair was messy. I brushed my teeth and had my bath then I dressed up and headed to the kitchen.Sarah and Hannah were awake. Sarah was in the kitchen while Hannah was dressing up in her room.“Good morning Sarah.” I said with a low voice as

    Mr Harts’ POV My eyes widened. He was lying down on his bed looking pale and weak. “Honey, Mr Harts is here to see you.” She gently whispered to him.He slowly turned as he looked at me and smiled.“I'll leave you two now.” She said as she touched his hands and walked out of the room.I took off my hat and placed it on my leg as I sat down beside him. I did not say anything at first. I was trying to process everything. He was not looking very bad but it was obvious that he was not feeling well. He was always vibrant and elegant with a presence that commands every room once he steps in. “How are you doing Rilley?” I asked as I moved closer to him.“I am fine my dear friend.” He said as he slowly sat up on his bed.“You don't have to sit up.” I said as I tried to support his back.“I am not about to die.” He said as he smiled.“And you're not dying soon.” I said.“I'm so sorry I haven't been able to come earlier, I have just been very occupied with work.” I said with a low tone.“It'

We have been friends for a very long time and we have built empires together.I got a call some weeks ago about his illness and I have not yet gone to see him since then though I sent my daughter Jessica but I was still supposed to go and see him, so I decided to go see him today.I sat up on my bed as I was now staring blankly for some time. Soon I got out of my bed and then I brushed my teeth and went into the shower after. After having a nice bath, I put on the outfit that my wife had already prepared for me, applied my cologne and then I went to the dining table . Food was already served by the maids and my wife Christabel was already sitting at the dining table. She smiled at me as I walked towards her.“Good morning darling.” She said as she stood up. “Good morning to you too, love.” I said as I kissed her forehead.“I se

    Jessica's POV.It has been a while since I saw Ben. He has been silent. The last time he came with a file at my place and the other day he met Kennedy in my office. He hasn't come around since then. And Kennedy has been acting off. Ben hasn't been in office recently. I stayed in my office that morning, my mind was restless. I kept going through the files from the clients that I had to attend. As a knock came on the door, talk about the devil. It was Ben.“Come in.” I said.He walked in and sat down without me asking him to. “What is the meaning of this?” I asked as I looked at him.He stood up immediately as he now sarcastically said.“Oh my Boss, my bad. Please can I have a seat?” He said with a smirk.I didn't say anything as it was obvious that he was getting on my nerves. “You haven't been working lately, I hope you know.you were employed to work and not to mess around.” I said. “Well I have been looking for ways to fix what you didn't have the guts to handle.” He said with a

  • MY NEW HR IS THE MAN I SLEPT WITH.   Chapter 96- Wounded Heart

    Jane's POV It was morning already but I was just feeling as if it should not be morning yet. I was in pain, physically, mentally and emotionally. I now rolled on my bed as the light that was coming from the sun of the morning was following me. I looked up at the ceiling as I placed my hand on my forehead. The fever had now gone down. I now started to force myself to sit up and I felt pain on my wrist, it just made me remember what happened yesterday evening. When Ben came to threaten me to stay away from Kennedy. He held my wrist till it started hurting. I looked at it and I saw a red bruise, he also held my neck. I now started to slowly remember everything, his words, the look that was on his face, the fear that was in my eyes. I kept my hand on my neck as I stood up from my bed and went to the mirror.I now started looking at the person that was looking back at me, she was looking as if she was very tired, pale, stressed. When I started looking closer, the bruises that were on my

  • MY NEW HR IS THE MAN I SLEPT WITH.   Chapter 95- Losing Control

    Kennedy's POV It was morning. The light from the morning sun was bright but it did not outshine the heavy feeling I woke up with. I was awake before my alarm rang as sleep refused to come. I stayed up all night as I just kept tossing and turning on my bed. I wasn't able to sleep after everything that happened last night. I haven't spoken to her since then. I saw her walking out of a man's car when she told me she bailed out on me, telling me she was going to be busy at home.I couldn't bring myself to listen to her explanation without thinking of her being in his arms. And I said something that made her sad. And I couldn't even go after her afterwards. What was I even doing? Was I being selfish? I could only bring myself to text her saying I was sorry but she didn't reply to it. I dragged myself out of bed lazily as I looked at myself in the mirror. “What are you doing to yourself?” I muttered.I could not remember the last time I felt like this for a woman. I was cold and heartl
