One Night's Mistake: Claimed by my Boyfriend's Brother. Chapter 105: Masquerading II.
My mind pauses on the possibility of it, but there's no way Christian would know and not do anything about it. He may have never even seen this email, because it's been so long since he's had a secretary, and since no one has been here to monitor things like this, Levi can exploit it.A phone rings and I jump immediately, thinking it's the company line, but it's not. It's mine, and the caller is Christian.I pick up, ready to spill out every bit of my discovery to him, but his voice beats me to it, "The report from the finance department should have been on my desk by now, Miss Bennett."The call cuts immediately after that, and for a while I'm left gaping at my phone, mouth hanging open and a large question mark in the wrinkles on my forehead.Still, my hand is reaching for the report that just came out of the printer a minute ago. I'm shocked, not incompetent.I march my way to the elevator, ignoring the eyes of coworkers as they stare at me. They're probably wondering what has push

The relief that floods me is embarrassing. Like a drowning person spotting land.She works here, that’s a… coincidence but it makes sense. Something about her feels so familiar I speak before I can stop myself.“I think I’m my mind.”She smiles as she steps closer. “Not yet, though this place has a way of chewing people up if they’re not careful.”I watch as she crouches slightly, slender fingers prying at the copier with practiced ease. In a few smooth motions, she fixes the jam that had me ready to cry. She pulls out the stack of crumpled paper and hands it to me with a small grin. “There. No more machine mutiny.”I take the papers, my cheeks hot with embarrassment at how easy she made that seem while I almost broke down from it. “Thank you, sincerely. You seriously just saved my life.”Her eyes glimmer at that. “I’m glad I could help. I know how brutal first days here can be.”I hit reprint on the files that got the copier jammed a while ago as I respond, “Brutal is one word for it
One Night's Mistake: Claimed by my Boyfriend's Brother. Chapter 103: Green.
The silence in the room doesn’t lessen even as more people come in. It’s a living thing and it’s slightly suffocating.Christian’s employees all look star struck at the sight of him, but when they turn their eyes to me there’s a look of suspicion and a stark question in them even though no one says anything.Those stares all say one thing, “Who the hell are you?”Christian’s presence is an imposing boulder at my side and those of his employees are an intimidating hard place, so I’m kind of stuck now. Still, my legs take me forward of their own will till I’m climbing the steps to the podium Christian mentioned a minute ago.The moment I get to the top, something like an electric charge shoots through me, and suddenly my face is on a large screen I didn’t even know was there. I clear my throat and I hear the sound echo like I’m speaking into a microphone so the pit in my stomach grows deeper, but I force the words out of my throat, putting as much confidence in my voice that I hope it d

"What did she say her name was?"For the first time in a month I comfortably woke up and ran a hot bath for myself. The action is doing something to my brain that I can't understand, so when Estel asks this question, all I can do is stare at her as the hot water in the fragrant-smelling bath soaks into my skin.It's 6 a.m. and we're both in the bathroom, she on one side of the sink and me on the other, each trying to get ready for the day. And why did I tell her about the girl who helped me shop again?"Lyra, I asked what the girl's name was. Did she not drop a name?"This time the confusion rolling around in my mind makes me respond, "She didn't give me her name, but she gave me a card. She's really good at what she does because her clothes were really nice. Her hair was elegantly laid down too, like she had just gotten it done. We met trying to get the same blouse...""And she helped you shop for outfits, just like that?"There's a wariness in Estel's tone that makes me wonder. I tr
One Night's Mistake: Claimed by my Boyfriend's Brother. Chapter 101: Over or under ten thousand dollars?
“Where are you right now, Estel?”Estel yawns and I hear it in full force on the other side of the line. It’s 9pm in the city and I’m out, in a mall, in a shopping outlet, trying to shop for clothes while trying not to feel like I don’t belong here.I can already see some of the shopping attendants chattering at one corner of the store. The question is if they’re talking about me or not? Plus, isn’t clothing outlet snobbery only supposed to exist during the daytime? Isn’t snobbery meant to have run out by this time?Estel’s voice on the other end of the line reminds me that I’m actually on a call as she responds, “I can’t disclose where I am right now. What’s up though?”I speak under my breath as I respond, “I’m at a clothing store, trying to spend some of my wardrobe allowance, and failing miserably because my best friend isn’t here. You also missed the dinner.”Estel chuckles, “Girl, you know you’re lying. You didn’t want me three feet near that dinner.”I gasp, and in an attempt
One Night's Mistake: Claimed by my Boyfriend's Brother. Chapter 100: New.
”Are you worried about being my secretary?”I can’t lie that I’m not, because I think he would know, but admitting to my fear also leaves me with a feeling in the pit of my stomach that feels unbecoming, so I admit, but to the fear, “I’m worried about being adequate as your secretary, yes. It sounds like important work, and I wouldn’t want to make things harder for you by being in that position.”Christian reaches across the couch and gathers me into his arms as he asks, “Do you want to know why I chose to send you the employment offer after not sending out any of that nature for almost half a year now?”Christian’s words are warm, and it sounds like he’s about to reassure me right now. A part of me craves that reassurance like a thirsty deer craves a babbling brook.I want him to tell me it’ll be okay and that I’ll be great at my first day of work, but Christian’s words are different from what I expect when he speaks, “I chose you as my secretary because I trust my judgment.It’s nev
