Of course there was.He opened the file, flipping through it at an unhurried pace that felt deliberate, almost calculated. Her fingers curled slightly at her side as she stood there, waiting, the seconds stretching just enough to feel intentional."This section," he said finally, tapping lightly on the page. "Explain your projections."Her gaze dropped briefly before returning to him. "They’re outlined in the report.""Explain them."

Working With My Ex Again Chapter 19: You'll meet her
"Yes."Of course there was.He opened the file, flipping through it at an unhurried pace that felt deliberate, almost calculated. Her fingers curled slightly at her side as she stood there, waiting, the seconds stretching just enough to feel intentional."This section," he said finally, tapping lightly on the page. "Explain your projections."Her gaze dropped briefly before returning to him. "They’re outlined in the report.""Explain them."Her jaw tightened."They’re built on projected market elasticity and phased expansion over three quarters...."His eyes were focused on his laptop, when she stopped, he looked up. When Isla got his attention, she continued."...The first assumes a 12% growth rate based on last year’s consumer response patterns, while the second adjusts for seasonal volatility in Q2, which typically impacts procurement cycles.""The third scenario?" He asked."The th

Isla was left alone with her thoughts, every thing that happened in the office came flooding back to her. Then she forced herself to continue eating."Ma'am, are you alright?" A waiter who was passing asked."I'm fine." Sher replied but she was screaming internally that she wasn't.How would I face him? Should I bring it up? Or should I tell him it was a mistake?? Her boss sure held grudges.. he wouldn't let it slide. All these and many other thoughts were running through her mind the same time.Her phone buzzed just as she took a sip.Darian Blackwell.Isla stared at it for a second… then picked up."Isla Mercer""Where are you" he asked directly."I'm having lunch." She replied."Interesting. Because the quarterly file you submitted is incomplete." Came his voice after a slight pause.Her brows pulled slightly. "It's not...""You're implying that I don't know what I'm saying
Working With My Ex Again Chapter 17: Nothing Happened
For the entire time Isla was in the elevator, her mind wouldn't stop racing.What just happened??She stared at her reflection in the mirrored doors and her reflection stared back at her and they were both in agreement that what had just happened was, there wasn't a word for it. Or maybe there was.I don't like him. She said it to herself clearly, firmly, as it she was trying to convince herself, which she clearly was.He is a controlling, insufferable, raccoon-adjacent man who made me sort forty-nine documents and won't let my best friend into the building and I do not, in any configuration of reality, like him.She touched her mouth then took it away immediately.That, she told herself, was adrenaline. The slap produced adrenaline. The adrenaline produced... The doors opened.Ryan was standing in the lobby, having apparently been let in at some point, and he took one look at her and his eyes went very wide."W

The sound echoed louder than it should. No one moved. Darian didn't either. He didn't turn away.He sat very still behind his desk, and he looked at her, his eyes were darker than before. The expression on his face was something else entirely.And Isla stood there, breathing, hand still raised slightly, with the sudden acute awareness that she was in very, very deep trouble."Everyone out," he whispered, voice low and commanding, and somehow everyone in the floor heard him.Yet chairs scraped almost immediately, footsteps rushed, and within seconds, the entire floor emptied. Only then did he touch his cheeks.The air crackled between them, thick with unspoken words and tension that had been building ever since she first set foot in the office. Isla's heart raced as she locked eyes with him, the billionaire CEO who had made her life a living hell. She hated him. She had spent countless hours in meetings, rolli
Working With My Ex Again Chapter 15: The Day She Slapped Her Boss
"Sir, if you could just leave..." A security man who was attempting to perhaps be polite said. "I'm not.." Ryan said unshakenly.The security's face changed slightly, if it was disappointment, Ryan didn't care."If you could just..." He tried again."I've told you who I'm here to see," Ryan said pleasantly, with the tone of a man who was one exchange away from being unpleasant. "Isla Mercer. Forty-third floor. I can wait."Security had formed a loose barrier near the main entrance, and beyond the glass, being held at the middle with the dignified outrage of someone who had not expected this and was not accepting it, was Ryan."Mr. Blackwell has indicated that...""I'm not here to see Mr. Blackwell." He glared wondering why those in power had the urge to always rub on their faces, that they are."Anyone attempting to access the forty-third floor requires prior...""Ryan," Isla said."Thank God" he muttered softly."Common, let's go." She urged but the security stepped forward blocking
Working With My Ex Again Chapter 14: Security Issues
"Ms. Mercer!!!" Someone called. A junior staff probably.Could they just rest and let her be?? She thought as she continued walking towards the elevator pretending as it she didn't hear anything."Ms. Mercer!!" The voice called again. It was closer this time. Annoying, even.She turned coming face to face with a short man, maybe around his early forties, dressed in a suit that tried a little too hard to be expensive. But what stood out unavoidably was his height. It was as if life had started building him with confidence… then got distracted and never came back to finish the job.Is that… all?Her gaze dipped. A brief, controlled eyes over or maybe once over before returning to his face, perfectly neutral."Yes?" she said, smooth and professional.He stopped in front of her, adjusting his tie like he needed the extra authority. "I’ve been looking for you."I doubt that required much effort. She stared at him, he expression still neutral."I need you to deliver this document to Mr. Bl
