“What the hell is this?” I grabbed her phone instantly from her hand. It was a gossip blog post with the headline *Fast rising business mogul Parrish Holmes in a relationship with his employee, abuse of power or not?I gasped at the headlines and began scrolling down her phone as Parrish was also peered, his mouth falling open in shock.“What the hell” he echoed the words that were repeatedly running through my head. Then they were pictures, firstly it was the wedding photoshoot we did together at his friend’s fashion line, they were more pictures of us standing together in Lexington hall the day we came to inquire about the building and the straw that eventually broke the came’s back was both of us together and half naked at the beach.Instantly, Dahlia pulled her phone from her hands throwing me a dirty look and from the looks of it, it was obvious she hated my guts and I didn’t care much about her , I didn’t know anything about her and the kind of relationship she had with Parrish

The elevator ride to the boardroom above seemed to go on longer than it normally would, the timing ticking like it was a countdown to doom and anarchy. I balled my fist at my sides, trying to quell the rapid thudding of my heart. I tried to stop, to calm myself but I couldn’t help but worry. What was going to happen? Where was Parrish? Was he going to show up and actually save me if it came down to it? I had my reservations, Parrish didn’t have the best track record of coming to my rescue in the past, why did I think it was going to change now?I could feel their eyes on me even before I reached the door and pushed it open eyes that were normally indifferent or polite in passing, now cold and assessing, their eyes drilling deep into my soul and drawing out my insecurities that I’d rather stay hidden. I paused for a moment to compose myself, smoothing down my skirt and taking a steadying breath.I pushed open the heavy oak door and stepped into the room. Suddenly, the air became thick

JESSICAS POVDahlia was right there at the door after she had flung it open, her lips smirking and at me in particular before she focused her attention on Parrish and she walked in with a confident stride.“I was requesting coffee specifically because I have some business to talk about with you”“But you said –” Parrish was going to say until she interrupted him halfway.“We say a lot of things Parrish” and then she flickered her gaze to me and with a pointed look she said “Most of them we don’t mean”At this point, the members of the board had began trooping out one after the other leaving just Parrish’s father behind and he stood up now and walked towards where we all stood and he joined us but I felt mostly distant from the conversation because actually I wasn’t a part of it.“Well Parrish, I met Dahlia the other day and she indulged me in a very fascinating conversation that could boost your company globally, isn’t that wonderful?” his father said to him and Parrish looked from hi

SOME DRUNKEN YEARS AGOPARRISH’S POVIt was a late evening, and that day I had gone out to play basketball with the boys. I remember it so well, it was drizzling slightly but we refused to step off the court with the adrenaline still coursing threw our veins. My hair and clothes were damp but the only thing that kept me excited was that I was going to meet up with Jessica later on at my house, and at that I bounced the ball even more vigorously than I needed to. I remembered stepping off the court finally, bading the boys by and hopping into my car, my head only filled with thoughts of seeing my girl.“I should get her some flowers” I thought, she’s been more beautiful lately and afterall she deserved it and even more. So that was what I did, I stopped by a local florist and purchased a seemingly delicate bunch of red roses that I knew Jessica loved.I unlocked the door to my house, the flowers in hand and she was right there within my line of vision, slumped lazily on the couch with

I sat humbly on the chair while Marvis and the new guy that walked in had a private discussion that lasted exactly ten seconds and after the guy walked away while Marvis was back to me with a sleek smile.“I’ll show you around and teach you the ropes” he said to me and I noticed the slight Italian accent dripping off his tongue, it almost seemed like he was trying to hide his accent but I stood up regardless and taking in the woodsy scent of his cologne.“Where are you from Marvis?” I asked as I struggled to keep up with his large strides and managed to walk up to his side. He kept his eyes straight ahead and when I came to his side, he only offered me a brief glance.“Texas”“You don’t sound like you’re from Texas” I knew what a Texan accent sounded like and Marvis was far from it.He stopped abruptly, turning to fully to look at me “You ask a lot of questions”“I’m new, I’m supposed to ask questions”“About the job, not my accent” he said and his desperate attempt to conceal his acc
