I frowned at the phone and wanted to answer it immediately. A part of me did not agree in that instant. I knew it was wrong, regardless of the caller being his ex-girlfriend that still gave me no right to intrude.

ChadI panicked internally as Nikki directed the security man to let Rebecca in. I was getting mad beyond my capacity as how inconsiderate Rebecca was being especially since we had just had met in my office only a few hours ago. I thought if she pissed me too far, I would give ahead to press charges on privacy invasion without hesitation."I'm not going to allow her into this house." I focused on my reality one more time and cut in with Nikki and the patient man still standing there, waiting for my decision. "Whatever it is she wants, I'll go speak to her myself." I said, turning around to meet Nikki's gaze and on seeing the frown that she had, I immediately went to her side and gave her a small kiss on her forehead."I'm sorry." I said when I pulled away, "don't worry about anything, I know how to feel with this." I assured her and looked up at the man, "come on."I left her slipping into

Nikki was curious to know what the outcome of my conversation had been but I was more keen on dismissing her. I wanted to spend time with her and even force her to stay overnight but if I had to deal with my Rebecca situation before it was too late, I knew that now was the right time."She is predictable, she said she wanted to say hello because she was passing by." I rubbed the back of my neck, knowing how obvious that was if a lie.She crossed one leg over the other and raised one suspicious eyebrow at me. "Chad...""Nikki, just ignore her please." I sat in front of her and poured her a glass of cold water. "You look like you can really use some of that."She didn't say anything in response, successfully making me further uncomfortable."I'm sorry." I heaved a sighed, "trust me." felt a omo grow in my throat from saying the words especially knowing I was not worthy of her trust

“Rebecca what are you doing?” I retreated from her, my eye wide open in shock I had no proper reaction because it was utterly unexpected and my brain was still trying to understand what had happened and of course she had to take it the wrong way.“I see you are speechless, that means you are all in, huh?” she came even closer than before and pulled me loser to her face with a firm grip on my neck and that was all I really needed to snap back to my senses. “What on earth are you doing?” I raised my voice, harshly slapping her hands off of me, I did not care less if I was supposed to respect her but she was being disrespectful and nothing pissed me off more.

NikkiI stood from where I sat with furrowed eyebrows and my gazed fixed on Chad. "What is she doing here?" I was thrown back. My feet were unable to consume my balance and I felt trapped. I wanted to be out of there the quickest that I could.My eyes went back to Rebecca when she broke the silence for a confused Chad that could not stop scratching the back of his neck. He was clearly not expecting her to show up here and was not taking her entrance lightly.

“I just can't believe he would do that.” I sniffed and sat on one of the couches. I wanted to get things over with. If he had not been hesistant with accusing me like that, he was not worth my time at all.“What can I do?" Cornelius was trying his best to make me feel better and although I did appreciate it, it was not being helpful.

I stood to my feet, unable to process the worry that came with feeling this way."Are you drunk?" I asked after a while of thinking deeply about it."No." He said in a low voice.

"Nikki!" I heard Chad Bush bang his hand on his table causing me to flinch hard. I rolled my eyes from my desk and stood lazily to my feet.I had heard stories of irritated CEO's with anger issues but I think Chad had a justified reason to always get irritated at matters that involved me.I was one of the few people the dictionary defined as clumsy. I never intended for it to be that way but alas, that was always the situation.He referred to me as Nikki unlike many others that called their secretaries by their last names. I was half a step closer to losing my job if I ruined one more thing, Chad quoted."Mr Bush?" I acknowledged as I got to his office. He eyed me up and down and I wished so dearly that he'd instead cut straight to the point."Where is David Park?" He inquired slowly yet sharply. His voice wasn't raised and that was his 'I'm impatient and I might get angry' kind of anger.

"No, no, fuck this, no!" I stood to my feet immediately. How on earth could I have missed it? Something felt odd texting the photos, how on earth did I go to Chad's thread instead of Tom's?I picked my phone up to see what could have caused the misleading. I slapped my forehead when I realized how. Chad had texted me a message that conveyed a reminder to check my e-mail so I could edit the attachment he had sent.This was the end. I knew I had to go check my closet to find my apron so I could get it dry cleaned for pizza city. I was about to toss my phone out of my hands when all of a sudden, something fascinating caught my eyes. The message had been delivered but it had not yet been seen by Chad. He must have put his phone away right after texting me and that meant there was still a chance to stop him from viewing a picture with such content, which could and would cost me my job.It was twenty minutes after midnight but s
