I was exhausted from a day of work. My feet felt like they were on fire; I’d had to oversee some technical improvements, which meant being on my feet all day and most likely obtaining blisters.

I passed by Eric’s bedroom to get to mine, and I saw him casting a lingering glance at me, like he wanted to say something. I pretended not to see him. I would only see past this if he actually apologized. All I wanted was a simple “I am sorry,” with no strings attached or any excuses. A simple admission

  • My Best Friend’s Uncle… and My Baby Daddy   Chapter 163

    Sophia was furious at the recent turn of events. She had heard the new developments. Initially, when she first heard the news of Autumn being suspended following suspected corporate espionage, she had been ecstatic. That wonderful news was the exact reason she had gone out shopping today, but now she was fumbling blindly between rows of designer outfits, fuming under her breath.She had just received the terrible news: Autumn had been cleared by both the Ministry she was working with and Nexus Corp. To make matters worse, she had also heard from the workplace gossip channels that Autumn had even gone as far as to have a woman arrested right out of the building.Furious, she grabbed the luxury items she had picked out and marched over to the cash register. She barked an order at the sales associate, snapping her fingers. “Wrap this up.”Her mood had already soured from this horrific update, and the boutique associates were only getting further on her nerves with how slow they were bein

    “So, Rosaria has officially been arrested?” Autumn said as she walked into Eric’s study, carrying a tray of light snacks.“Who?” he asked, removing his eyes from the document in front of him to shifting his focus entirely on her.“The woman who slapped me,” she said, placing the tray carefully on the coffee table.“Oh, that woman? She is so insignificant that I didn’t even know she had been processed,” he said, sitting up to face her. “Why would you let such an insignificant person even get close enough to touch you?” he asked, his brow furrowing with annoyance. “I told Nigel to stick whatever charges he possibly could on her.”“I didn’t let her touch me on purpose,” she said, feeling a bit exasperated. “She took me by surprise,” she sighed, sitting down in the chair opposite him, feeling the weight of the day’s events. “I heard from Marcus that she was charged with seven different crimes,” she told him, a hint of pity in her voice.“Are you feeling bad for her?” he asked, pausing the

    It was the following day. The entire office building was buzzing with chatter as the employees endlessly discussed the catastrophic result of the disciplinary meeting held the previous afternoon.“Did you hear that she took five hundred grand as compensation for the unlawful suspension?” somebody whispered loudly to another in the corridor.“Yeah, and I even heard she is actively suing the company too,” they replied back quickly.Rosaria sat there in the breakroom, hearing every single word. Her nerves were already on edge after the absolute that had happened yesterday.‘I didn’t imagine that damn b*tch would go as far as to hire someone to impersonate the CEO of Barnaby & Associates,’ she thought angrily, her jaw clenching. ‘There is nothing she can do. She previously said she would sue me for harassment and nothing ever happened, and now this?’ She scoffed audibly, slamming her coffee mug down.“I heard she had the actual Nigel Stevenson from Barnaby & Associates as her legal repres

    ‘No, he couldn’t be?’ she thought in disbelief, hoping she was just being paranoid. ‘But why would he do something like that to me?’ she asked herself, searching for a motive. ‘It wasn’t possible. I have never done anything to him,’ she thought, her mind frantically replaying everything that had happened in the last nine years since she had first moved to London.“Are you ready to order?” Eric said, walking back inside the private dining room with a waiter in tow. He paused, noticing her face. “Everything okay?” he asked, seeing her worried expression.“No, not at all. I'm just a bit worried about the upcoming Ministry project,” she answered smoothly, her features twisting quickly to hide the panic in her eyes. “What if I fail?” she asked, doubt etched into her voice.“You, afraid?” he asked, a look of disbelief etching itself into his features as he stifled a laugh.“Eric, I am being serious right now,” she said, frowning at him.“And so am I,” he said, reaching across the table and

    They both stood in front of the Nexus Corp building after the disastrous explosion that had just happened during the disciplinary hearing.“I am going to begin the formal process of filing the civil suit and the criminal charges immediately,” Nigel said, putting on his sunglasses with a sharp flick of his wrist. “I will send the finalized documents through Eric for you to sign. Make sure to send me all evidence of the workplace harassment and the physical assault, including the video you obtained of her hitting you. That is critical evidence,” he stated firmly before turning around and walking off toward a sleek sports car parked by the curb.She watched him drive away before getting into Eric’s town car, which was waiting patiently at the side of the busy street. “To the office,” she instructed the driver cleanly as he started the engine.The drive there didn’t take them very long at all. Since both headquarters were located within London's main business district, it was just a brief

    “So, I arranged for a legal representative for you. I have already sent him the files and everything,” Eric’s deep voice sounded clearly over the speakerphone. There was a protective edge to his tone. “His name is Nigel Stevenson,” Eric added.Autumn stiffened instantly at his words, her breath hitching in her throat. ‘I hope it is another lawyer with that exact same name,’ she thought frantically to himself, her heart beginning to hammer against her ribs.“If you are done there, come straight to my office,” he added when she hadn't immediately replied to him.Nodding as if he could see her, she forced her voice to remain steady and replied, “Okay.”“He will meet you there,” Eric said firmly before hanging up the phone, leaving the car in a heavy silence.‘What on earth are the chances that he already knows I was at his firm earlier?’ Autumn thought, panic swirling in her chest. ‘If Nigel meets me face-to-face right now, he would obviously recognize me and report everything that happe

    The sound of designer heels clicking echoed through the dimly lit, marble-clad hallway, the sharp, rhythmic strike against the polished floor being the only thing breaking the heavy, oppressive silence of the hallway. To anyone else, the sound might have been jarring, even threatening, but to Elean

    I had spent the last few days trying to settle into the new house in Edinburgh. On the outside, everything looked perfect. The stone walls were strong, the air was fresh, and we were far away from the chaos of London. But inside the house, a different kind of war was starting.I had tried to get to

    Eric’s POVWe sat in her modest living room and talked about a few things. As the hours went by, I got to know so much more about Autumn’s childhood than I ever expected. If the stellar grades I had seen in the files were not enough, the physical proof of her achievements sparked even more respect
