Alice's POV

"What's going on?" Lily asked again, her voice demanding. "Answer me! What are you two doing?"

Adam immediately pushed away from me. He stepped back, his hands raised like he was innocent, his face the perfect picture of shock and hurt.

    Alice's POVI stood in front of the tall glass building, looking up at the shiny letters that spelled the company’s name. My heart was beating so fast I could hear it in my ears. I took a deep breath and started walking toward the entrance when suddenly a loud engine sound made me jump and spin around.A bright red sports car came to a stop right in front of the building. The door opened upward like a wing, and out stepped a pair of long legs in high heels.My mouth parted in awe as I saw a beautiful woman with long black hair styled in curls and a tight designer dress that showed off her figure stepped out of the car.

I want to repay you by helping you with your work as well, if that’s fine with you.”David stared at me. His dark eyes looked into mine so intensely that I felt my face grow hot. I looked away, embarrassed by his stare.Then he nodded. "Fine. I'll take you to the office tomorrow. You can start working as a designer. B

My body ached all over, but I could walk.She led me out of the bedroom and down a long hallway. My mouth nearly fell open as I took in the huge place.
