She chuckled in a confused manner as she stared at him, “what are you saying now? Are you sure you’ve not had alcohol?” She asked him as she stared at him. When he’d said he wanted a favor, she was thinking he wanted to apologize to her. She knew he must have been feeling bad after realizing that she’d gotten stabbed for him but asking her to be his girlfriend, that was way farther from what she had expected.“I’m serious Kathryn, will you be my girlfriend?” He asked again and this time, she knew he was serious.“You’re not joking ?” She asked as she stared at him.“When I asked you to seduce me for hundred million dollars, did it sound like a joke? Was I joking when I gave you the money in cash?” He asked as he stared at her, looking as serious as a lecturer who’d just caught a student cheating during an exam.“That’s not like this. Seducing you and….”“Seducing me and being my girlfriend aren’t really different. If you want, I could pay” he told her and she stared at him.“It’s not

Kathryn rolled her eyes as she continued to stare at them, it just felt like they’d been sent after her, they’d been sent to ruin Daniel and her reputation.“So what if I’m dressed like this? Does it make a difference?” She asked as she looked at herself after turning.“Of course it does, look at how you’re dressed and you’re the assistant to such a man as Daniel Lopez and…”“Hold on, the last time I checked, I wasn’t clad in a mini skirt or a body hugging gown or anything inappropriate so why do you have a problem with my outfit?” She asked as she folded her hands against her chest.“That’s because you’re not dressed as an assistant. Any explanation for that?” One of the women asked and Kathryn rolled her eyes.“Kathryn let’s go. They just need something to cover for their page “ Daniel said and held on to Kathryn’s hand, dragging her towards the building. He’d had enough already and he wasn’t sure how long he could be able to control his anger for. He didn’t want to kill then and

“You must be silly, I wasn’t lost in thoughts or anything “ Daniel told her as he got off his seat.“If you weren’t lost then tell me why you didn’t answer when I called?” She asked him as she walked to his front, preventing him from going away.“I just didn’t want to” he told her as he tried to divert his gaze from hers.“You just didn’t want to, oh really is that it?” She asked him as she chuckled. “Ok then, maybe when I start dreaming, I’ll also tell you I didn’t just want to talk to you” she told him before going back to her seat.“How’d you know I was dreaming about you?” He asked her as she made a sign with her hand that represented victory.“I knew it, you were daydreaming but about me? I didn’t know you were dreaming about me” she said with a smile on her face as she walked to him. “Tell me, what did you dream about me?” She asked with a smile. “Shoot!” He cursed as he slightly banged his hand on the desk. She was smiling again, that smile of hers did things to him, things

Louis smiled to himself as Kathryn wrapped the bandage around his wrist.“Are you feeling any better?” She asked him as she tucked her hair behind her ear which made him admire her even more.“Yes I am” he told her and she smiled before using a scissor to cut the rest of the bandage off and then taking the bandage to the cupboard.“Get some rest, you’ll be better soon “ she said as she poured him some water in a glass before handing it over to him with some painkillers.“Thanks” he told her with a smile as he took the painkillers.She inhaled deeply before going to sit beside him, “ I’m very sorry” she told him as she sighed“What are you sorry about? You didn’t do anything to me” he told her. He clearly knew what she was apologizing for but he wanted to converse with her, he wanted her to take very long time in the room so that when she came out, Daniel would be worried sick about what was happening in the room. She stared at him, she knew what he was trying to do, she was not bo

Kathryn sat as she stared into thin air, she had to admit, it didn’t matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t stay mad at Daniel for so long but then, what would have happened had he killed that man?Had Louis not being there to push Daniel off, the man would have probably being dead. What use was it speaking to him if he didn’t value the people she valued?She had taken a bullet for the man for goodness sake, didn’t it show him how important that man was to her? She could have died after being shot for that man but it didn’t matter to Daniel now did it? All he cared about was his name.She sighed, what was she to do? She couldn’t stay mad at him for so long but then, she had no choice. She had to show him that she wanted her opinion to be valued too. Luckily, he had gotten better and hence, didn’t need her help because she was sure she would have being broken by then.She tucked her hair behind her ear as she continued her work, the fact that she was his seductress didn’t mean she
