"Your Miss Ashcroft made a compelling case." Henrik Van Der Berg gestured with his wine glass, the crystal catching light from the chandeliers above us. His eyes gleamed with excitement.

    ElianaError: File Not Found.The words blurred on my laptop screen. I blinked and clicked again. The same message popped up.Barely five hours until the seminar and my presentation was gone.Breathe. Just breathe.I grabbed my notebook from my bag, flipped it open. Pages of handwritten notes stared back at me about the market projections, logistics timelines, regulatory frameworks for each European country. The foundation was here. I could rebuild the presentation. Okay there was still hope.My email. I had emailed myself drafts while working. I pulled up my inbox, typed "Netherlands presentation" in the search bar. Three results appeared, the most recent from six days ago. I opened it and downloaded the attachment. It had outdated numbers and all but it was something.I opened a new document. I would have to redo

  • My Bestfriend’s Daddy    Standing up for his woman

    Theodore"So how is she?" Matthew's voice filtered over the phone through the ear pods. I could picture a smug look on his face on the other end and the urge to end the call was a bit too strong. The breakfast buffet was huge with the scent of fresh pastries and coffee thick in the air. My private booth sat tucked in the corner, floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Amsterdam."Come on man, be a little more open,""You don't see me pestering you over your wife, Mathew," I grumbled. "What exactly do you want?"He cackled, sounding rather pleased with himself. "Is that anyway to thank your best friend for his help?""If I thank you, will I stop badgering me?"There was an empty seat across from me. I stabbed at the omelet on my plate, barely tasting it. Eliana should be here. She shoul

    ElianaWell, say your prayers, Eliana. You're doomed.Leslie's hand shot out, digging her fingers into my shoulder hard enough to bruise."YOU!" She shook my body, her nails biting through the clothes. "You didn't do your job! You were supposed to tell me who Theodore was seeing!"My heart slammed against my ribs. "I... uh..what?""Don't play stupid with me!" Her face was inches from mine, twisted with rage. Red blotches marred her pale skin and her eyes wild. "There was a woman in his bed this morning! A WOMAN! And you didn't tell me!"Relief crashed through me so intensely my knees almost buckled. She didn't know. She didn't know it was me."How would I know he was seeing anyone? Leslie I can't hover around him all day-""That's your JOB!" She shook me again, harder. "You work with him! You'r

    ElianaThe moment Leslie's shoulder hit the door, pushing it wider, I dove. The sheets tangled around my legs as I scrambled under the covers, pulling them over my head. My heart slammed against my ribs so hard I thought it might crack them.I was so screwed."Oh my god, who is that?" She spat."Leslie, you need to leave." Theodore snarled. "Now.""Why? Because there's someone in your bed?" She cried and footsteps clicked across the floor. Oh god no, she was coming closer."Leslie-""Let me see her." She yelled. "Let me see who the hell you're fucking. I'll bet it's that Amsterdam model."My lungs stopped working. The sheet pressed against my face with each shallow breath I managed to drag in. She was right beside the bed."It's her isn't it?"
