Trent removed his hand slowly from Avery's mouth and when he got the assurance that she wasn’t going to scream, he led her to one of the empty offices. Unfortunately, Scarlet was going to ease herself after dropping the files on her table, stopped, and hid a few meters away.Seeing Avery entering an empty office with another male staff member, she got the right weapon to make the CEO know that his wife wasn’t as pure as he thought, instantly putting a call through to the front desk.Anderson was in the middle of an important meeting when the intercom rang. He excused himself and answered it. “Sir, Scarlet wants to speak with you. She said it’s very important,” the receptionist said.Anderson guessed it was related to what she was working on and said, “okay.”“Mr. Crown, I saw your wife and Mr. Baker entering one of the empty offices,” a tired but eager soft voice rang from the end of the line. She knew that from today, the CEO was going to give her special attention or even increase

Trent grinned mischievously. It seemed that he got Anderson in a hub this time. “You just said that you love Avery but look at how worked up you are at the mention of Bernice. Mr. Crown, I think you should recheck your emotions.”Anderson smiled. If Trent couldn’t tell anyone anything about Bernice, then indeed, she died. Whatever happened between them might not have been pleasant at all. Anderson was still curious to know but when he realized that Trent was just testing his pulse, he swallowed his anger and said provokingly, “Don’t be so confident. Just wait till Avery gets pregnant. That would be the true meaning of revenge.”Trent stiffened, imagining Avery with a bump for Anderson. He instantly recalled Bernice and his emotions began to assault him. No, he couldn’t let anyone know about Bernice. It wasn’t easy to forget everything about her. Anderson used the right weapon. It was because Bernice got pregnant before her disappearance. Trent could hear so many voices in his mind.

For over a month, Joyce called and texted Taylor to apologize for her misjudgment to no avail. Even when she took care of her sick mother, she kept doing the same but the guy never rejected nor accepted her calls and neither did he think it right to respond to her text messages.Suddenly, he texted her just because she saw him with a woman he claimed to have broken up with. Joyce texted back. ‘I forgot to thank you for not getting intimate with me. I wish you all the best.’This was her subtle way of accepting the breakup and somehow, she rather felt relieved. Her sins of misjudgment were paid for so she needn't feel guilty anymore.While the dish was being served in the private room, Martin joined them, seeming happy to see Joyce who was rather uneasy. “Joyce I went to your office but you weren't there. Good to see you here,” Martin said with a smile.Martin went to her office to look for her? She already imagined the worst. She was going to take over the front page of the office goss

From how Joyce had whitened, Martin knew there was more, especially when he saw a figure at the entrance.“Turn around Joyce, I'm already here,” she heard Dylan say. Time did not permit her to absorb the shock when she turned around to see the man holding a bouquet of roses. Without closing the gap between them, he stood at the entrance and spoke a little louder, like he wanted everyone to hear what he had to say.“I’m sorry Joyce, but you still have to agree that Taylor was a prick right?”Dylan asked victoriously. He was dressed in a black suit, most probably from the office but Joyce had no idea how he knew that she was there. This was the first time she came to an outrageously expensive restaurant and at the same time, the two exes showed up. Joyce was emotionally exhausted. The best answer to a fool was silence and Joyce chose that option. She rose to her feet but didn’t utter a word.It worked well with Taylor but for Dylan, she couldn’t tell. He had faked a piece of evidence fo

Avery was upset when the intercom in Anderson’s office began to ring unstoppable. With his head buried in between her thighs and her release close, she groaned in annoyance when he pulled away. “Don’t move,” he warned her in a deep sensual voice, turned around, and walked a few steps away from the table where he had positioned and was feasting on her deliciously. Seeing him equally annoyed, she smiled and pouted, while waiting patiently for him to continue from where he stopped. “What?” Anderson barked in annoyance when he answered the phone.The receptionist was startled by where she sat as if he stood in front of her and she could understand his annoyance. He had warned her to not disturb him but this project was among the ones he marked as urgent a few hours ago and told her to immediately relay everything concerning it directly to him.“Mr. Baker is here with the final report for the first half of the…”“Alright.” Anderson cut her off and hung up the phone. He knew what he told
