The Office Blind Date Novels & Stories

Giselle replied, "Well, my mom arranged for me to go on a blind date last time, which did not happen. She arranged a second blind date with the same guy and forced me to attend. Can you go with me? Sis, I'll tell the guy we're not interested, and then we can eat together. You can tell me all about the abduction then." Maisie was stunned by the request. Giselle begged, "Pretty please? Mais, all you need is to wait for me." Maisie looked reluctant. "But I have work." Giselle wrote, "The blind date is at 5:30 pm! He's a busy man who can only meet after work." "Fine …" Giselle sent her a love sticker and added, "Love you!" Maisie turned off the phone screen with a smile. Andrew turned to her and

My team was the only one in the company that hit its performance targets this year. At the year-end party, the boss waited until everyone else had left, then he pulled out a big red box and had the four of us in my team draw blind boxes. I drew a desktop tower caked in dust, an antique that looked like it belonged in a museum. Haley Lambert, my teammate, drew a monitor covered edge to edge in scratches. Drew Sandler got a keyboard with every letter worn clean off the keys. Gabe Carell ended up with a grease-slicked wired mouse. Our boss, Cyrus Griffin, clapped me on the shoulder, grinning drunkenly. "You young people love a blind box, right? It's all about that thrill of not knowing!

But whether he had gone out at this moment, and that his mistress was with him, I certainly didn't care. Pushing Grey out of my thoughts, I focused my attention on the scene spread before me. A bewildered expression spread across my face as I did so. The center of the spacious office was now occupied with a round table, draped with a light pink linen, set up for a romantic date. There was a bottle of expensive vintage wine on top and a pair of tall wine glasses.

"Come on, Leah. We've traded so much gossip to feature in a sh*tty reality show." "Office gossip," I corrected. Kevin eyed me suspiciously. "And this isn't?" It sort of was office gossip, but I knew that Kevin was anything from discreet, and Tracy was… well, Tracy. However, I needed help with the Mike situation, stat! Well, nobody has to know WHO I'm talking about. I thought for a second, picking my words carefully. "Well, I have a situation." "Okay?" they said at the same time. I rolled my eyes at their obvious impatience, but continued anyway. "I agreed to go on a date with two different guys on the same day, and I need to find a subtle way to cancel on the first guy."

The blind date was the talk of the house. Belinda couldn’t stop talking about it with Anna, her mother. She fell for Dan at first sight. The date was not their first meeting. They had earlier met at his company during one of her quests to find an investor and also a designer to help out with her new project. She met him on the elevator. He was probably on the phone with his girlfriend or someone he loved, because the way he smiled while on the phone caught Belinda off guard, and she had fallen since then.

She didn't seem to agree with me, and I couldn't tell why she was so obsessed with getting me skinny, even if I didn't need to be. I opened my mouth to tell her to stick the company down where the sun doesn't shine, but she beat me to speak. She raised her nose in the air and changed the topic. “I have arranged a blind date for you tomorrow,” she announced. “Be at the Alter Restaurant tomorrow by five.” She got up, and Tiffany did as well. “Don’t mess it up. This is our chance to grow the company. I am counting on you.” Both of them strolled out of the room, leaving me alone, thinking about my life and how I ended up there. My mind briefly trailed to Stephen, and a smile climbed to my face.

Mandy was already there and immediately gave her a curious, gossipy look upon spotting her return. Amused, Rosalie said, “There’s still time before work resumes. You’ve got ten minutes for gossip. Come in.” Mandy grinned and followed her into the office. The moment the door closed, she blurted out, “How did the blind date go, Ms. Lafayette? Any potential there? “Should we still proceed with the one scheduled for this evening?” Rosalie sat down on the sofa in the lounge area. Ever attentive, Mandy quickly poured a glass of water for her boss.

The next day he woke up to an empty bed. He looked around the room, but she was nowhere to be seen. He checked his phone and it was already 08:00am in the morning. He immediately got off the bed and got ready for his office. Just as he was about to go downstairs, a reminder popped up on his phone screen. "Blind date" He read. As he looked up, Ruby stood there watching him as she passed across the hall. Their eyes met for a brief moment, unable to look way, he kept staring her until she moved her eyes away and went back to her room.

I groan into my palms. “And what are you doing in the next thirty minutes?” “I have a date.” The words drop like he’s been forced to swallow poison. “It’s a blind date. Nothing serious. Rob arranged it.” “And why is Rob arranging blind dates for you?” “He’s trying to close a deal with another contractor. Apparently, grabbing lunch with the man’s niece — Kelly — is part of the bargain.” He rolls his eyes, already bored of the girl he hasn’t met. I bit the smile that almost came “ Let me guess… Rob dropped this on you last minute?”

I had completely run out of patience and turned my gaze straight to Hugo. "Mr. Crawford, let's call it a day with this blind date." I never wanted to see a blind date partner like this a second time. I raised my hand and gestured for the waiter to bring the bill. But just as I picked up my bag and was about to leave, Marlene pressed her hand down on mine. "You want to leave? First, settle the damages."
