My New Boss Is My Ex High-school Sweat-heart CHAPTER EIGHTEEN
MarriedAt the church entrance, a man walked in with a woman in a red bridal dress and a blue veil. They walked in the company of each other, arm in arm.In the church, Candy and Ali sat, each of them on each row as they stared at the door at the incoming couple.The pastor was at the altar with a Bible on his hand. His expression was remarkable as he looked like he couldn't hide the many questions in his head.Definitely, this was the first wedding he was to preside over with only two guests and one person in the tablet.Without any suspense, the couple were none other than Juma and his personal assistant Stella.Two weeks had passed in a blink and from the looks of it, Stephany had decided or amiably accepted the conditions on the contract to be Juma's contract wife....Yesterday when Stephany asked Candy to be present at her fake wedding, Candy had been stunned silly."Were you fed with love potion? Don't tell me you have fallen for Juma Cain

Questions."What was the bang all about? You two are having couple fights now!" Candy asked wide eyed as soon as Stephany stepped into the room."It was that loud?" Stephany stunned, asked in return.It was loud yet the devil did not complain? I mean he should, shouldn't he?Stephany's mind wondered.Candy gave her an eye roll but did not speak.The eye roll was clearly asking, 'Wasn't it loud???!'"Ain't you being so nosy?" Stephany asked seeing Candy's eye roll.Candy yet again did not reply."I was already walking out of the study when he reminded me to close the door behind me, like I would leave it open! What the heck?"Stephany ranted without letting out a breathe.Candy didn't know if she should laugh or cry when she saw her behavior leading to a little chuckle escaping her lips.Candy without makeup was still beautiful. She had cheekbones and little fat in her cheeks, shaped eyebrows and relatively long acceptable lashes.

Slipped!Stephany was grabbing some magazines from the book shelves when Juma walked into his study.He was holding a glass of water with floating ice cubes and didn't notice her as his eyes had lock on something else.The magazine on his desk. He had left no magazine there so it quickly attracted his attention as he walked with large strides to it.A glance and the next thing Stephany saw, he had thrown it into the bin.Stephany: ...?"Why did you do that?" Stephany asked.This was not the result she was waiting for!"What?" Juma asked as he sat."You threw away the Magazine. Why? I thought you would be interested in her," she said as she went to the other desk on the lower two steps part of the study.He shot her an icy glare and reacted to changing it quickly to a questionable look.He had just reacted icily thinking why everyone would think he could be interested in Linah. Then he realized that he was talking to Stella, so she might be talking about the company and not the other k

AVOID NOT TODAYThe sighs of pity to Susan accompanied the disappearing backs and they went on with the work left. No one spoke as the rattle of papers and whispers with hands moving from one document to the other started.Stephany had just separated from Susan as she went in to Juma's office through the corridor path.She was conflicted in between visiting the office first or checking on the conference room if there's someone to give her the heads up of what happened.After difficult decision, she decided to walk towards his office. The door was a bit hidden and there was a corridor. If she could have used her office, she would have used the emergency door link in there."Have you been hiding?"A voice came from behind her and she swallowed hard with widened eyes."No! Why should I be?" Stephany asked a question of her own too.Naturally she felt that there was no reason for hiding it's just that, she did not want to face this Juma Cain's changed self.He was the opposite of what he

ANSWERSThe sound of the clocks seemed to have converged at one place in the entire office and that was near Stephany's ears.Tick tock, tick tock.It was like they were trying to tell her to hurry and choose.There was no better choice but the silence that allowed the clock sound was now giving her heart a scare as it drummed in her ears too.Little did she ever think of the day she would be so anxious to be with Juma like the only two of them.Where did it come from?But before she could speculate the answer, Juma's voice sounded."Jeffa is asking if I'm going down or not, the hotel surely without any suspens will be the next!"He was calm like he knew her choice and said his sentence like he was talking about everyday business."Okay!" She said and it sounded like a commanded whisper just at the fall of Juma's voice.Juma chuckled at her reaction and asked like he never understood what the okay was for,"Okay to what?"Stephany almost dropped dead with anger. Is this man really ser

Trending."She looked forward to that day and that day she even did her chores early," Stephany went on feeling down.Silent loomed between them and Juma raised a brow."What happened next?" Juma asked with anticipation.He was now into the story, especially when he felt the name Stephany to be familiar and the story brought some weird painful feeling to him.Juma thought he had grown soft since he had feelings towards Stella so he pushed the feeling to the back of his mind.Stephany was surprised to see his reactions and also she affirmed sighing in her heart that surely, he had forgotten all that. It was all seen in his face."That day, he never even glanced at her," she stated.At this said, she stopped to seek his reaction. Juma was surprised by the turn of events a little angry to who?"What? Why did he do that?" Juma asked.He now gets why she wouldn't love this Abel guy, the man was a jerk!"He broke up with her, saying he

Target!The car turned towards the direction of home and she turned to him."Where are we headed?" She asked."Home. I need somewhere to sit and focus on what's going on. I will leave it to you for now but I might take over if something isn't done," Juma stated what was in his mind.Stephany was taken aback!He made Stephany think of him in the past...."Why did you reprimand her that way, moreso in my presence, it was too cruel!" She had said helplessly staring at the receding back of Linah."Who is she to say that to you?" He had asked."She is just a concerned friend. More ever, she has known you way long before me, isn't it?" Stephany had reminded."And she should know better than getting to my bad side. She is a friend and should not cross that line!" He had stubbornly stood on his stand."She's right though, I am basically a tomboy. Being surrounded by boys made it easier for me, so the feminine part is gone. You know it""

Is The World Warning.While Stephany was in the call, she forgot to listen as her mind wondered away. She remembered and contemplated in all the happenings that had transpired since she knew or safely said, since she met Juma Cain.It was not only from that day at the airport, but also from the first day she had set her eyes on him. She never crashed on Juma and he never made her heart skip at first, second or third sight!But that was not as important as what she had to endure when she was with him, apart from having fawning friends.The enemy list of most of the girls that time, at the top rank, was her glaring name! And then now!It was not ok to a point she didn't know if it was her or Juma's fault. Disturbingly, Juma's behaviors now that portrayed the same person she knew he would grow up to be!She did not understand his situation anymore.Not that kind of understanding but the person he had become. The one who had suffered from amnesia!
