Enora:

I continued to eat in silence. The idea festered at the back of my mind. They were right. Mr. Wright did mention a condo in my contract but I had been too consumed by our little drama to actually think about it.

There was no doubt about it. I needed space. Living with Bridget was great but it wasn’t helping. I needed to think.

The check soon came and we all paid for our meals. Tony was still staring at his phone when we all left Olive Garden together.

“They paid salaries today, Tony. Please find a way and settle your cousin. I don’t think I can last another hour with your phone going crazy,” Nicky said rolling her eyes as we all walked to a car.

Everyone laughed, except Tony who managed a dry chuckle. But something about him was off. He looked… nervous. I had noticed it all afternoon.

His head kept darting to the door while he ate as if he expected someone to show up. Someone he seemed very worried about. It was possible that his cousin was really coming after him for his money

    Enora:My fingers went numb and my body, taut. His brown eyes had a fiery glow in them. I gulped. There was nothing to be guilty of. I didn’t do anything wrong. Why was I feeling this way?“Uhm… hee are your documnets, Anthony.”I took the papers from the printer and handed them to him. He took them from me with shaky hands and said a coarse thank you, standing up and leaving, muttering a dry greeting to Mr. Wright.Finally, the door shut behind him and we were alone. I took a deep breath and faced my work on the computer. I had to relax. I had to breathe. I wasn’t doing anything illegal. All I was doing was talking to a co-worker. That was it?“What was he doing here?” he finally asked after what felt like an eternity.“He was simply getting some documents, as you saw.”My voice dipped in a few places and I was scared to see the look in his eyes. I sounded so guilty even though I wasn’t. I didn’t do anything.My eyes were still fixed on the computer but I could feel the weight of his

    Nathan:I stormed out of her office, my chest heaving as I went back up to my office. I couldn’t stop thinking about seeing the two of them in the office all alone. Who knew what they had been doing before I came in?Anthony… he looked so calm and relaxed, sitting in her chair like that and smiling at her. And she… she returned the favour. I told her to stay away from him but she wasn't listening. I knew Anthony. He was a good manager but his way with women hasn’t exactly been… the best. I did investigations before I employed him. As long as his attitude didn’t affect his job, I was fine. But he had better stay away from Enora.Angrily, I forced my office door open. My breathing was deep and heavy as I fought to calm myself down. I lowered myself in my chair, my fingers on my chin as I was immersed in my thoughts.Enora said that she wanted to get away from me and how convenient it was for her to tell me about her plans to move into the condo right after I saw Anthony in her office. I

    Enora:He got in and squeezed in right next to me. I wiped my face with my hand and moved further away. I didn’t want to touch him or even look at him. I couldn’t believe that he actually thought that I would do something with Anthony. I wasn’t that cheap.I wanted to be treated like a normal employee and not have him shadow my movements all the time. I heard what other colleagues whispered when they saw the two of us together. I felt so incapable. I wanted to prove myself, I wanted to be on my own without him having to lift his head and tail me all the time.The ride back home was quiet. I focused on the window like my life depended on it. Through the reflection, I saw him steal glances at me. I could tell that he wanted to say something to me but didn’t know how to say it. I took a deep breath and closed my eyes. It was probably best that he kept it to himself. I didn’t want to talk to him. He had been in my face enough all day.We parked in front of the mansion and without waiting

    Enora:We went down for dinner. My heart was racing. Now that I thought about it, I didn't want to go through with Bridget's plan. This was… crazy.Her dad would definitely know it was me and he would probably think that I manipulated her to get my way. I wouldn't even be surprised if he turned her down flat. He was a difficult person.Bridget went in with a smile plastered on her face. I, on the other hand, was nearly breaking under the weight of nervousness. I muttered a ‘good evening’ and slid into my seat.Mr. Wright's eyes swooped over the table and I felt a sweat break out. His eyes… he knew something was up. This was bad.“Mmmm… dinner smells amazing.”Bridget served herself a generous helping of steak and vegetables and poured herself a glass of wine.Her smile was so effortless and genuine. I would have never thought that she was in on this with me.My appetite faltered. I was way too nervous and took a small helping of food and some juice. The last thing I needed was alcohol

    Enora:I could barely sleep. I finished my work and was lying awake in bed till the early hours of the morning.What the hell has happened? Why did Mr. Wright suddenly change his mind? Why did this feel… strange? Something was wrong. This was exciting news but I could feel that I was missing something. Something important.By the time I woke up, I had missed my alarm and was thirty minutes late.Shit! Shit! Shit!I had a meeting I needed to attend with Mr. Wright and now I was late.I dashed into the bathroom and had an ice-cold shower. The leftover sleep in my eyes vanished, and I felt bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. That was better.Brush teeth? Check. Suit? Check.My eyes scouted around the room to check if there was anything that I had forgotten. I looked myself over in the mirror. If I ga woken up earlier, I would have had time to properly do my hair. I hoped I looked okay for the meeting. I closed my eyes briefly and prayed silently for a normal meeting and not one with a creep li

    Enora:I arrived at the meeting just in time to shoot Mr. Wright a death glare before his clients came in.He raised an eyebrow, puzzled but didn't have time to say much as he stood to shake hands with his clients."Mr. Tyler, a pleasure."Mr. Tyler returned the compliments and offered me his hand as well. I took it graciously, smiling as I took in his neat and trimmed face.He was African American, but my gosh, he was good-looking. Muscular with smooth chocolate skin, a sharp-cut beard and a moustache with a lovely fade to his hair.As I pulled my hands away, I felt my fingers graze something cold. It was a split second but I saw it before it disappeared into Mr. Tyler's lap.He was married. I saw the gold wedding band.I smiled warmly. Of course, he was. He looked amazing. His wife was so lucky to have someone like him.As I opened my laptop, my mind wandered. It was a weird thought, but what if Mr. Wright asked me to marry him?I would be Bridget's stepmom. That would be so weird.

    Enora:My heart skipped a beat. He was serious about what he said. I could see it in his eyes.He flashed me a small smile and disappeared, leaving me all alone in the boardroom.My heart was racing, and my thighs were so tightly clenched together that I had a cramp, and after a while, I was stuck that way.Well, I guess I wasn't going to have dinner with my friends. What a way to start the day!It took a while, but the feeling in my legs soon returned, and I stood up on wobbly legs. This was so embarrassing. This was more than enough evidence that I needed a break from this man. No one was supposed to have this much control over my body.It took a while, but I was soon able to get my legs to work, and I left the room. I had to edit this minute and send it in for filing. I was certain that I would have a lot more work on my table as soon as I got back to my office. It was always a busy day for me at least the pay and perks were worth all the trouble. And I was going to get a condo!As

    Nathan:It was three o'clock. Finally! Looking through all these papers was getting boring.Finally, it was all over. I stood up and groaned. My cock hurt so bad. Blue balls all morning and I didn't even have time to relieve myself.I checked the time again. It was two minutes past three. Enora should have been here.Did I always have to come and drag her from her office? What was she doing this time?I grabbed my phone and left my office. My expression was grim and dark. So help her if I found my Manager idling away in her...I forced her door open and she coughed."Enora!"She coughed violently and began to bang her fists on the table. Her eyes were watering and she was wheezing loudly.Fuck!I rushed to her side and began to slam my palm on her back. She was fucking choking! What the hell was she even eating?!"Easy, kitten. Easy"I smacked her a little more and soon, a piece of bread shot out of her mouth.On the table was a half-eaten turkey sandwich. How the hell did she even

    Enora:“What the hell is going on?” I demanded, standing up from the sofa and staring at Anthony with hate and suspicion.He stood up as well and walked towards me, smiling wickedly as he took me in with lust and disdain.“You had to have known that this was coming, Enora,” he said darkly, chuckling dryly and looking to the door as if he expected someone to come in.“You know, there's just something about you in the office that just doesn't seem to sit well with me.”I backed away, trying my best to increase the distance between the both of us. “Stay away from me!” I yelled, but Anthony’s laughter just continued to become more sinister. Where the hell was George? He should have realized that something was amiss by now.“If you're thinking about your buff gardener, just know that he was incapacitated a few minutes ago. He won't be coming to your aid, Enora.”My heart skipped a beat. What was happening? How the hell did I end up this deep in trouble? Who was he? Was he even the real An

    Enora:Nicki took centre stage and called for a game of charades. Everyone began to pair up in twos. Luke was still with Emily, Jay was with Gina, Eliot opted out of the game and surprisingly, Anthony paired up with me. I was a little uneasy as he sat next to me. We weren’t on speaking terms but at least he wasn’t mad enough to detest me and avoid me like I was the black plague. “Alright, I believe you all know the rules of this game. The first team to guess gets a point. No cheating and no trying to make your teammate win by using any funny hand signs. G, you’re up.”Gina took the stage and pulled a paper from the hate. She looked at it and made a face. I could only imagine what the hell she picked.Soon she raised her hands above her head and began to bend in the funniest way. The crazy guesses commenced.“Line!”“Straight!”“Balloon guy!” She shook her head and lowered her hand. She imitated someone who was drawing and went back to her first action. “You are an artist!

    Enora:There was a heavy silence in the room. All eyes were fixed on Eliot, on one knee, holding out a ring. Bridget was dumb dumbfounded. For a few minutes, she was unable to say anything and I couldn’t blame her. This was a shock to all of us. Eliot had just cheated on her and now he was trying to propose to her. “Bridget, please say something.”Bridget said nothing as was still staring at the ring in disbelief, like it was all part of a dream, that her ex-boyfriend of just a day ago was proposing to her.“Bridget, I…”A resounding slap filled the room and everyone’s hands flew to their mouths and gasps rippled inthe room. I was stunned. Bridget was not a fighter and she wasn’t one to lose her head over things but I could understand her reaction to this.“You cheated on me with some girl named, Vanessa, and now you have the audacity to show up to this party uninvited to prose to me?! How stupid are you? How stupid do you think I am?”Her voice was raised and was shakey. I wanted

    Enora:It was 6:45 pm. The guests were going to be here any moment from now. I was dressed and so was Bridget. It also turned out that her yelling on the phone was beneficial. The bakery was able to deliver just in time. The macrons were perfect, I didn't want to seem greedy but I had had my eyes on them all day since they arrived. I had even tried to snatch one but eagle-eyed Bridget had caught me just before I could pick one off the tray. She had also made a call to Choi’s and they promised to bring some food. Bridget put it all on her tab and I was so grateful to her. This party wouldn’t have been a success without her. By 7:00 pm sharp, the first guests arrived. There was a knock at the door and I opened it to see Gina standing there all dolled up in a beautiful black dress. It had been a while since I saw her but I could tell that she was in good spirits. I took it that she got the memo from Mr. Wright and that she was innocent. I was happy that she was back to her beautiful

    Enora:"Enny, who is at the door?” Bridget called from inside. I was too ashamed to say anything and Anthony came inside behind me. I didn’t need to see his face to know that he was pissed. His smiley and carefree attitude had vanished into thin air and he was icy and distant.“Hey, Tony,” Bridget said with a smile but her smile quickly vanished and she looked at me with shock. Her eyes were everything but there was no way that I could tell her what was going on as well. She was just as involved as she was. “I’ll go and get the ladder from George. You two can decide where to hang the banner.”She left–I really wished she didn’t–I was alone with Anthony. He came to stand in front of me and I forced my head up to look at his heated expression.“What the hell, Enora,” he said roughly, his voice just a few shades away from a yell. I have been trying to reach you for almost three days. You just ghosted me. No calls, texts, voice notes and to make matters worse, you wouldn’t even return a

    Chapter 213Enora:There was a knock at my door and my phone dropped from my hand. I looked at the time, it was still very early in the morning. It had to be Bridget. As I opened the door, she stood there in a very unfashionable top and a pair of dark purple sweatpants.Compared to yesterday, she was in a much better mood and she wore a warm smile on her face.“Hey, I hope you're ready because we're going to be very busy today,” she said excitedly and she entered my house.She was clutching a little bag, her hair was tied in a messy ponytail. It was one of those rare sights, seeing Bridget unfashionable and unkempt in the morning. Even when her hair was a messy sight, she was still so pretty.As she entered my living room, her eyes widened and her jaw dropped.“Are all these for the party?” She asked, heading over to my centre table.“Yeah, I also bought a few things for myself. Turns out I'm running out of shampoo.”She reached for my hair and ruffled it playfully. “Of course, you

    Chapter 212Enora:Saturday came faster than I had expected. I even slept in. Bridget and I had been on the phone for so long, last night that we both fell asleep on each other during the call. I was still trying to roll out of bed when my phone began to ring. I grabbed it sleepily and saw that it was Bridget.“Hey girl,” I said with a yawn as I pressed the green button. “How are you?”“Good,” she replied even though she was just as sleepy as I was. “I’ll be coming over to your place soon. Get out of bed so that we can get this party started.”I chuckled sleepily. “You’re still in bed too. Don't call the kettle black.”“I am certainly not calling any pots or kettles black,” she argued playfully. “Get out of bed sleepy bones. We have a lot to do.”The call ended and I got out of bed. The floors were cold and my toes curled as soon as they touched them. A thought immediately forced me awake and I hurried to the bathroom. As soon as I closed the doors behind me, I pulled down my trou

    Chapter 211Enora:The preparations for the housewarming party began and Bridget was feeling a whole lot better. Her once pale face had brightened up, and she had a splash of colour on her cheeks due to the excitement. Planning parties and events always helped cheer up and I was happy that I gave this to her to do.“This is beautiful,” she commented, looking at the list in her hand and the room around her. “You had managed to prepare to make the workload easier for tomorrow morning.”“I'll hit you up in the morning tomorrow and we can finalize the preparations. I know you said you wanted to cook but I think I'd be more comfortable in bringing in external catering.”I didn't say anything; I wanted her to prepare the party how she saw fit. As much as it was my housewarming party, I knew that because of what had happened with Eliot, she needed this one or anything.“I'll be fine with whatever you decide,” I said with a smile. “Just forward me whatever changes in the plans you have made

    Enora:Just as the words left Bridget's mouth, she burst into a fresh round of tears. I looked at her in disbelief, trying my best not to seem unsympathetic. Eliot was an asshole and I wouldn't put it away from him that he could pull something like this.“It's okay, Bridget. There's no need to cry. He wasn't worth your time anyway.”I hoped my words would provide some comfort for her but how wrong I was.Her tears only intensified, and before I knew it, she was taking a new round of tissues, and the pile on my centre table continued to grow.“I'm so embarrassed, Enora. I should have listened to you. I should not have trusted that bastard in the first place,” Bridget lamented, her voice hoarse from all the crying. I patted her softly on the shoulder.“There is no need to beat yourself up about it. Everyone makes mistakes…”“But I shouldn't have made this kind of mistake,” she snapped back, whipping her head around to look at me. Her eyes were terribly puffy and swollen and her mascar
