Chapter thirty-two

A/n: if you're still with me and reading this story, thank you so much. That's all I have to say.

Quick reminder: there's this guy at Trevelyan Enterprises, Eric. He's Ivan's sort-of right-hand man. He is closer to Ivan than any other staff at TE, except Isabelle, of course. And Susan, who is another one of Isabelle's co-workers, is his bae.

Recap:

"My second secretary," my lovely fake-husba- oops, boss, I meant- said. "Miss. Ashby is my second secretary. After you, of course."

I can't remember what happened after but I was sure of one thing.

I was sure of the colourful strings of curses that I invented that day.

Oh yeah, I was sure of something else.

That any level of understanding that had solidified between me and Ivan vanished like it never even existed.
