" I cannot believe that he didn't even show you appreciation for taking care of his precious firm. " Vivienne spat.
" Relax Vivi, we got something from the firm, didn't we? " Jeffery said as Vivienne smiled at him.
" We did. " Vivi agrees as she kissed her fiance on his lips. " we need to find a way to make sure that Zach doesn't discover what we have done. " Jeffery looks at his fiancee as she added. " You know until the security reduces around Zach and we can ensure that he stays dead this time. "
" Well, we just have to distract him so that he won't notice what is going on. " Jeffery suggested.
" He is dating a lawyer in the firm her name is Maisie Williams. That should keep him occupied until we can think of something. " Vivi said as she pours a glass of scotch for herself and Jeffery.
" Zach is not th
Zach didn't understand what he was seeing about his company finances, there is no way it should be as bad as that, even with the loss of his top-notch clients. Workers were not paid and the ones who were paid had their salaries slashed in half. What could have happened while he was gone? "Hello," Maisie said as she breezed into Zach's office. " Hey. " Zach replied his eyes still focused on the documents in front of him. Maisie knew from Zach's wrinkled eyebrows and intense expression that something was going bad, and it was outside Zach's control. Instead of asking Zach what was wrong, she went to look at him over his shoulders. " What wrong with the finances? " Maisie asked when she couldn't make head or tail of what was written on the paper that Zach was looking through." It isn't adding up. It looks like a large amount was taken out of the company account and it was
Zach arranged the finishing touches to the dinner after it was served. He didn't know why he was nervous. He was acting like a boy who is about to meet his date for the prom father as he is picking her up. Okay, it was almost the same thing, the only person he would need to like him that was related to Maisie was her friend and she was coming here to assess him. Although Maisie had tried to downplay her friend's character he had heard enough about there to draw up his conclusions that she was crazy and hard to impress and from Maisie's conversation with her on the phone. He could tell that the girl is indeed crazy and was not so freaked about him dating her best friend.If it was any other girl he would not have gone through this worrying process. Hell, he would not have even think about letting the girl family near his apartment neither would he be thinking about them liking him but he found out that he cared because it was Maisie. The
When Maisie opened the door to Zach's apartment, she knew that Zach would have done a surprise for her. But what she saw was not the kind of surprise she had thought of. Maisie heard Betty exclamation of " holy shit " but she didn't turn to look at her, she didn't do anything at all. She couldn't do anything. All she could do was to continue to stare at the spot which her world crashed even though Zach had jumped away from Vivi. All she could do was stare at the place where her heart had been broken. When her gaze went blurry she knew she had to leave very quickly before Zach would come to her. She was sure that he has a very good explanation of why his lips were in Vivi's own, just like they were in hers earlier that day... At that thought, a sob broke out from her throat as she quickly turns and ran to the elevator. Betty was right beside her. That proved that Betty would alway
Zach spent an hour searching all over the city at places he was sure Maisie would go but he didn't see her. He knew he had to try her home soon although he knew that Maisie would think it was too easy for him if she decides to hide there, so she will definitely not sleep there. Still, he had to try his luck.Zach breathed he didn't know what Vivi game was but it was over. He would not allow her to do whatever she wants with his relationship. He was going to deal with her later but what was in his agenda right now was looking for Maisie, he had already tracked the car to see it dumped by the side of the road with a parking ticket already. Zach knew that if Betty had her way, she would have trashed the car. Zach went to Maisie's home and knocked ( more like bang) on her door." Maisie open up. Please open up if you are in there. " To Zach's greatest surprise he heard the locks turning as th
Maisie didn't go to work on Monday but she knew that she couldn't push it off much longer so she went on Tuesday.And when she saw Cathy, she tried to avoid her. " Miss Williams. " Cathy called out as Maisie was about to turn back.Maisie turned and looked at Cathy as she fixed a strained smile on her face. " Yes. " " I wanted to invite you for a cookout I am having this weekend at my place. " Cathy said with a smile on her face and a glow around her. Maisie noticed it but she was still stuck on what Cathy said " why do you want to invite me. " Maisie asked when she could finally get her tongue to unfreeze. " Because you are Anthony's friend. " Cathy said as if it was the most obvious thing ever. " Since when do you care for Anthony. " Maisie asked in confusion. Cathy looked at her weirdly.
" I cannot believe you still decided to stay with him. " Betty said." Not stay, work. " Maisie corrected.. " Still the same thing. " Betty said but Maisie rolled her eyes. " you believe what he told you, didn't you? "Maisie nodded her head subdued this time and when Betty opened her mouth to talk, Maisie started to talk before Betty could get a word in edgewise. " I know that I might be acting lovesick or you think that I am a dummy for giving him another chance but I know that he didn't cheat on me, not on purpose, I love the guy and he loves me, I know that I shouldn't believe any word that he said but I do believe that. I wish you could know how I feel about him. If you did, you would understand why I know that what he is feeling is real. " Maisie said and Betty stared at her. " say something, Betty, please... " " Fine, I will, just so that you will not launch int
Maisie knew that she shouldn't be nervous but she was. She needed to have a serious conversation with Zach and as much as she would love to have it the next day at work, she knew that she would not be settled until she tells Zach that she wants them to continue dating. They did have a lot to talk about. Zach opened his door to see Maisie on the other side. His mind didn't even go to the fact that she was the one ringing his doorbell. Who he was suspecting was Jeffery but he prefers who he saw. " hello. "" Hi. Can I come in? " Maisie asked Zach who was looking unsure and tensed like he didn't know what to expect. " Err, sure. " Zach said as he stepped aside and let her come in.Maisie moved to the sitting room where she dropped her bag and sat down. "What is wrong? " Zach asked sitting close to her. " Nothing. I am sorry,
It was a good thing that Maisie dragged Betty along. The people who were also invited to the party were not her crowd, they brought a whole new meaning to the word snooty rich people. They all looked down on her because she was an orphan and certainly not a self-made millionaire since she was working for Zach. They made Vivi look tame. " This is why I don't like hanging out with these kinds of people. " Betty said as she drank a glass of champagne " You mean your kind of people. " Maisie asked with eyebrows raised as Betty glared at her. " My parents are not this rich but yes. God, they are so pretentious and backstabbing. " Betty shudders. " Like Vivienne," Maisie said with a nod at Zach's stepmother who pointed some people to her and gave her a wave. Without being close to them she knew that the woman had just told her friends that she was Zach's girlfriend and he
