EnoraMy breath hitched in my chest. I still couldn’t believe that he had agreed to go out with me. My hands clutched my bag tighter and I could feel the buzzing of my phone inside. Anthony had called me almost twelve times now and I couldn’t bring myself to answer. How was I even going to tell him that I needed space from him?Crap! Maybe Nicky told him!I probably shouldn’t have told her anything. It is so hard to look at her eyes and ascertain her true intentions when she wore so much smokey eyemake up.“Is everything alright, Miss Lopez?”Mr. Wright turned his attention to me and I gasped. He was no longer holding the menu. How long had he been looking at me?“I… I’m fine. Everything is fine. I was just… thinking.”My bag buzzed again and I clutched it even tighter, keeping it away from the table and on my lap, scared that he would feel the vibrations if they travelled on the table.I knew that I had asked him to stay away from me but being with him just seemed… right. I couldn’t

Enora:My blood ran cold and I froze. My eyes were staring into empty space. I looked like I had been punched in the gut. That bastard! What did he tell her?“Bridget, I can explain. Don’t believe a word he says.”“Yeah, you better have a good explanantion for leaving me out of the planning for your housewarmi g party this weekend.”My jaw dropped and my heart took a deep plummet.“What?”“Yeah,” she said, breaking out into a fit of laughter like she had pulled the greatest prank in existence. “Eliot told me that he came over for his wallet and that he saw you making plans for your housewarming party. That’s so unfair! I told you that I wanted to plan it!”I felt air rush into my lungs and felt my blood rush to my face. That was what she was talking about.“Oh! He… He told you that?”“Yes! I am very disappointed in you. Thank god Eliot told me in time so that I could stop you from making the biggest mistake of your life and subjecting all of us to the most boring housewarming party e

EnoraMy fingers fumbled at my desk as I grabbed my laptop and my copy of the agreement to be discussed.My ears were pricked, my head kept moving at the slightest sound that came from the door.As soon as I got to my office, I checked my phone. Twelve missed calls from Anthony. I expected him to come storming through my door any second, demanding why I didn't pick up calls or come for lunch.God! My mind felt like a factory, thoughts flying in and out like it was a damn delivery service.Mr. Wright wanted to find out about Eliot, Anthony was certainly mad at me and in the midst of all this, Bridget was planning a freaking housewarming party.My gut clenched and my heart skipped several beats.I had a meeting to get to, and here I was, shivering like a leaf."Breath, Enora. Breath. One thing at a time. Meeting first, then you can deal with Mr. Wright later."It was little comfort but it was something.I hugged my laptop to my chest and hurried to the conference room. My breath caught

Nathan:I looked blankly at Mr. Kane, who smiled knowingly.I drew a deep breath and exhaled through my mouth. I couldn't lie–I was impressed that he did his research.My company has been at the forefront of success and profit for years, and it masked our weakness in technological advancements.It has been that way for years and I was certain that we could build our strength in the shadows of our millions and front cover success."You did some deep digging, Mr. Kane," I said casually, returning his smile and burning a glare into him. "But I assure you, my company isn't that weak. We might not be at the front in that aspect but I believe that we will steadily climb."Mr. Kane chuckled and gestured his head to the side. One of his associates opened a briefcase and I watched suspiciously as he handed the document to Mr. Kane, who handed it to me."I believe that it isn't too early to move a company forward. Why wait when there is is clear, faster route?"I glossed over the paper and my c

Enora:He left, and I was left alone in the conference room. Finally, I could take a breath of fresh air. Those eyes lingering on me made me break into a sweat in the air-conditioned room.My breath caught in my throat as an image of Mr. Kane’s green eyes and piercing stare flashed through my mind.I could see the way Mr. Wright looked at him with disdain, the way both of them fought for control and dominance in the room as they negotiated.I had watched Mr. Wright negotiate many business deals, but they were nothing like what I had just witnessed. It was like watching Mr. Wright haggle with himself—a younger, green-eyed version of himself. My fingers ran across the keyboard as I put the finishing touches to the minute that I would print and send out to the Legal department alongside the new contract that Mr. Kane and his team had provided.Today was the most stressful day of my entire life. Thank god the workday was almost over. I could go home and…A shiver ran down my spine and my

Enora:My fingers trembled and my breathing caught in my throat. I looked back at Mr. Wright and he was glaring hard at me. My stimach wanted to fip itself inside out.Nothing happened between Mr. Kane and I. I could swear on it.“You–”He snatched the card from my fingers and in a few swift movements, it was in shreds on the floor. My heart rate elevated and my vision blurred as oxygen failed to reach my brain.“–are going to go home with me. I will drive you back to your condo. We really need to talk.”I couldn’t say anything and simply watched him walk away. My laptop was pressed even tighter to my chest and my ribs suffered under the pressure. All I wanted was a normal day at work. Was that really too hard to ask?I hurried to my office, my lips parted as I struggled to take a breath and think straight.The look in Mr. Wright’s eyes were terrifying but I was certain that I didn’t do anything with Mr. Kane. I mean… I didn’t even take his complimentary card. That must count for…“Ou

NathanI waited in the car, my phone beeping as I called her number. Why wasn’t she answering? I expected her to meet me here.As I called her line for the third time, I could feel my patience running thin. What was taking her so long?A few more seconds passed by and I could take it no more. I opened the door and got out. As I reached the office door, it flung open, missing my nose by a few inches.She dashed past me and I grabbed her hand, pulling her back as she yelped in surprise.“What took you so long?” I growled, pulling her close to my body and looking into her deep blue eyes.“I-I had something extra to take care of. I’m really sorry. I also went to your office and didn’t see you there?”I scoffed. Why did I feel she was hiding something?“Why didn’t you answer your phone? I’ve called you three times already.”“It was on silent. I was trying to focus on something.”Her lips trembled and her eyes looked shifty. There was something that she wasn’t telling me. Regardless, I gest

Enora:I felt my gut wrench violently and a salty taste filled my mouth. Mr. Kane was Eliot’s dad?!Urghh! Saying it out loud made it even worse and the salty taste increased. At this rate, I was going to throw up. That and all the tension in the room was unsettling.Mr. Wright stood there glaring at Eliot who stared back, unfazed, as Bridegt clung to his arm, sweating and struggling to keep her breathing under control.This had to be more weird for her than it was for me.“Nice to meet you, Mr. Wright,” Eliot said firmly, walking up to Mr. Wright with his hand outstretched for a handshake.I stood next to Mr. Wright watching Bridget jitter and gasp. She looked terribly pale and her eyes turned to me with a plead in them. What did she want me to do?Eliot’s hand hung there for a while, under Mr. Wright’s glare. His eyes darted from Bridget to Eliot and back to Bridget with disapproval building every second.His lips were turned down slightly and his eyes had darkened. It was no secret

Enora:The sun was up early and its rays beamed softly on my face. I groaned in slight pain and then smiled. Mr. Wright held on to me tightly, nuzzling into my chest, his fingers digging into the small of my back. I guess if I was in pain because he was holding on too tight, I didn’t mind. After everything that happened yesterday, I felt safe and I loved where I was: in his arms in a warm and safe bed.As I sroked his hair, he groaned and pulled me in tighter. “I’ll keep you safe,” he mumbled and exhaled deeply, his hot breath warm on my chest. I could barely breathe in his tight grasp but I didn’t mind. I was with him and there was no other place that I would rather be. Yesterday still felt like a dream. I wish I was strong enough so that I could look at Anthony one last time before he was dragged away. I couldn’t believe he would do that to me. It was scary. Even among the people I called my friends, who could I truly trust. “Why are you awake?” Mr. Wright said groggily, open
My Best Friend’s Father Wants me Chapter 220
Enora:I didn’t know what came over me. It was a final desperate attempt to save myself. My face was in pain, my body ached, and my pride was shattered. I never expected this from Anthony. Why? I thought he genuinely liked me and thought I had hurt him by letting him down. But it was all a ploy, a little part of a grand scheme, but unfortunately, he had hit a rock. While he was distracted, mocking Mr. Wright, I found an opening. I moved my legs slowly, freeing them from his grasp and finally letting the blood run through my numb muscles. I only had one shot at this. One shot or I would be raped and I would have to live with that regret for the rest of my life. I really thought that Anthony just wanted to talk, just wanted closure for what I had told him earlier. How wrong I was. I was foolish to have stayed alone with him. And now, I had everyone in trouble. I could only imagine what was wrong with George.With the little energy I had, the kick was explosive, right to his groin. A

Nathan:I couldn't stop pacing. Wine glass in hand, thoughts flying, my eyes darting to my phone every few minutes.She hadn't called me. Her part was supposed to start at 7pm, and it was almost 10pm. Yet, nothing from her.The wine I sipped did nothing to calm my frayed nerves. No calls, no texts. What was she doing?I slipped into a chair and sighed, my mind going haywire.Fun? Was she having fun without me? Who else could she be smiling with?My grip on my glass tightened. She told me that those bastards weren't coming. Did she lie to me?No. She couldn't have. My kitten didn't lie, and even if she did, I would know.I exhaled and checked my watch. Time was moving slowly, and it drove me up the wall."Fuck it!"I grabbed my phone and sent a text. I wanted to be sure that she was not with those predators. I hated them. Even hate wasn't sufficient.The reply was instant. And I heaved a sigh of relief. She wasn't with them. I could rest a little better.I walked over to my desk and go

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
