Zach arrived at his firm the next day to a welcome party being held. At least some people were still faithful to him. His assistant has been one of them. Taylor must have been the one to organize the party and although he was not a huge fan of parties, he allowed them when they were welcoming somebody new into their fold. And he had been out of commission for a year so that practically made him a new member.
" Thank you for the party, Taylor. " Zach said when he finally caught up with his assistant.
" Oh no. It wasn't me. It was somebody else who arranged to give you a welcome. " Taylor replied with a smile.
" Somebody else? " Zach asked bewildered. He knew that his lawyers hardly saw him and even if they did, it was from a distance. There was nobody who would have been seeing him every day and liked him enough to prep
Maisie arrived late to work only to see that, a party was being cleared up." You are late," Mr. Huggins said as soon as she sat on her seat." Sorry, there was an accident today. " Maisie replies." Humph. " Mr. Huggins said as he moved away unable to give Maisie the third degree for circumstances outside her control. " Hey, Maisie are you alright. " Anthony asked Maisie as he hugged her. " I will survive. " Maisie said as she in return hugs Anthony back. " what happened here. " " A welcome back party was held for the boss, Zachary Stephens. " Anthony said and something about what he said made alarm bells to ring in Maisie's head. " Zachary. " Maisie asked " Yes, well he hates it when they call him Zachary, he goes by Zach. " Anthon
Zach had sorted out those who need to be fired when he picked up the file from those who need to be in his team. The first person sent a bolt of shock down his system. It was her.He did not know how he knew it was her or neither had he seen her full picture but he knew that this was the woman he has been looking for. Something about her seemed bittersweet like he had wonderful memories with her but he didn't want to remember her because something happened at the end of their relationship that was too painful to think about.He needed to see her. He needed to be with her he didn't know what it will entail, all he knows is that he needs to see her and be near her.He used his intercom to connect his assistant. " Taylor please get Miss Williams for me. It is urgent. "" Of course sir. " Maisie said before the connection was shut off.
Maisie was floating on cloud 9 the next morning as she moved towards the conference room where she met Zach yesterday for the meeting that was going to hold today. She gets to see Zach every day once again and it still feels like a dream. Her mind had refused to shut down. It ends yesterday because she couldn't stop thinking about Zach flirting with her, she had to take a sleeping pill before she could sleep. She was too excited and everyone who had seen her knew at once. Anthony seemed nervous when they were going home he was like he was caught up in his thoughts to pay much attention to anything else.And she was grateful for it, she didn't know how she was going to share her news with Anthony, no lie would work with him since he saw how she was when she thought that Zach was gone. Maybe she would be in a relationship with Zach first before she tells Anthony and she knew
Working with Zach was like being tempted always and Maisie knew that very soon she would not be able to hold on to the reasons why she shouldn't date Zach. It has been the longest month of her life and Zach always tries to seduce her. Well, he was already done with the seducing. He is just waiting for her to come to him and she knew that it wouldn't be long from now. Zach knew that if Maisie doesn't make up her mind soon enough he would go insane. He had left the ball in her court and she had been keeping it there for some time now. The girl was afraid, of what he didn't know. It was almost like she had been hurt by him before and she is scared to let him get close again. Zach couldn't concentrate on the papers he was looking through. In fact, he would have to go through the former ones he had already scanned. He would not be surprised if he had made a mistake. Zach slammed his pen on the tab
Waking up in Zach apartment wasn't what Maisie had in mind the next morning she woke up but she must have been stupid to think that she could have just kissed him and it would end at that, kissing. After Zach had sex with her the first time, he took her to his car then his apartment. Where her brain went to while all these were happening, she would never know but she did know that she didn't regret one minute of it. At least Zach left the issue of making her tell him where they met. And she might be able to distract him whenever he brings up the issue." My ego is bruised. " Zach sleepy voice said behind her as the arm anchoring her to a hard male body behind her tightened. " You are in my bed and your mind is a thousand miles away. " " You are asleep, jerk. " Maisie said with a smile as she turns to face Zach who was slowly becoming awake. " Morning. " Zach w
" I can't believe that this is your apartment building. " Zach said as they entered an elevator. " Why? the location is pretty good. " Maisie said. "Not the location. It feels eerily familiar like I have been here before. Like I have lived here before. " Zach corrected.Maisie didn't know what to say to that, sooner or later she was going to have to tell him that she fell for his ghost. " I am sure that it is just a case of Deja Vu. " Maisie said flippantly and Zach narrowed his eyes at her. She knew something. And although he promised not to force her to say anything, he couldn't help but wonder about their story. He knew where she lived for Christ's sake. As soon as he is alone he is going to do some calculations to draw a time frame in which he must have met Maisie.When the elevator stopped on her floor, they went out of th
Maisie should have known that Zach would never try to keep anything on a low key. The next day when she entered her office, she saw Zach sitting on her seat while discussing with Anthony and Dashell." Hey, babe. " Zach said as a mode of greeting and Maisie could barely stifle her groan.She could see the questions in Anthony's eyes. " hey Zach. " she said and she knew that if she didn't walk to Zach by her own accord. That he would so something that would be more embarrassing and eyebrows raising than what he was doing already. She moved towards Zach and as soon as she got within an arm's length, Zach snatched her off her feet and dumped her in his laps, " I miss you. " Zach said nuzzling her neck. " You saw me less than twelve hours ago. "Maisie grumbles. " What does that have to do with anything. " Zach asked with a frown.
" 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
