That night, Quincy sent a text to Scott, telling him that he would be leaving for a vacation to clear his head.“I would be going on a vacation, first thing, tomorrow morning. And I do not want you to track me, because I'm not going to be telling you where I'll be going. And if you do track me, I'm going to ensure I destroy that tracker. So, choose wisely.”Quincy was frustrated. At this point, he just wanted to be alone, and away from everything, because he knew that if he was still around people, he could say or do things that would only make them look at him weirdly or even change their attitude towards him.He placed his phone on the bedside desk and then turned to the other side of his bed to sleep.Sleep was another thing that made him happy, and feel less burdened, but he couldn't sleep for 3 days, straight without wakingSo, the only thing he could do was to take a break.Due to the stress he had gone through for the day, his bones were tired, and his body was ready to retire.

Quincy woke up from bed, and he had discarded the fact that he had decided to go on a vacation since Lauren had insisted that he shouldn’t go, and she had offered her support to him.He understood that what she did was because she was jealous, and wanted him to herself, but now that she had reflected on her actions, he trusted that she had done that, for real.As he got down from the bed, he washed up and then headed to the living room.He could already smell the aroma that was coming from the kitchen, and he smiled to himself.“I guess I’m going to be fat in a few days. You keep cooking.” He uttered as he sat in the dining room, then Lauren came out of the kitchen.“Well, don’t you deserve to be fat? And If you don’t want to, you could build up, you know.” Lauren smiled.“I see,” Quincy spoke, and then Lauren went back into the kitchen, and in a short while, she came out with a tray of plates of food.“Breakfast is ready!” She said, in an excited tone, then placed the plates of food

Lauren’s eyes blinked, and then she looked back at the receptionist.“Uhm… You know what? I’ll be back later to book an appointment with him. Thank you.” She said to the receptionist and left immediately, and left with her manager.As soon as they were out of the company and had gotten into the car, she let out a relieved breath.“Oh, my goodness. That was a close call.” She said, under her breath, and looked at her window, only to see Kohler, and Alexander, walking out of the company.Then she turned to her manager, who was looking like he didn’t understand all that was going on, especially since the moment she said she wasn’t benefitting anything from meeting Mr. Alexander.“Remember. I do not want to hear this from anyone else. Everything you’ve seen and heard or will hear about this case, I do not want to hear it from someone else, neither do I want you to think about it too deeply.” She cautioned her manager.“Yes, ma’am. I won’t let you down.” He assured her, and she smiled.“Go

Lauren stared at the message for a while, before a slow smile played across her lips. She had gotten him. He was in her trap already. Finally, she took off her things, and headed into the shower, letting the cool, relaxing water wash off the stress of the day. Afterward, she fell onto the bed, allowing it to caress her, and lure her into the land of dreams. The next morning, she awoke and dressed up immediately, getting ready for work. Only when she got to work, did she remember she had bagged a meeting with Alexander that night. “I should tell Quincy.” She muttered, dialing his number.Quincy picked on the second ring. “Good morning, Lauren.”“Good morning, Quincy. Guess what?” “Okay. What? I'm having this feeling that it might be good news.” He replied, and she smiled. “Alexander asked to see me again tonight. I think he's completely taken the bait.”“Like that quick? No restrictions, he didn't act hard to get?”“Hard to get? He was a fairly easy man. I just walked up to him a

Lauren couldn't erase the look of shock on her face when Alex spat out what was on his mind.Now, she realized why he had rented the whole bar, and set up an atmosphere for his confession.While that was a little sweet, coming from a man, she was disgusted that he had a wife, and yet, he had the guts to do such a thing to another woman.“It's fine if you do not have an answer for me, yet, but you can think about it. Think about all the benefits that would come with it. I can get you anything you want, too. Just… just be mine.” Alexander spoke, staring at her sweetly.It disgusted Lauren more than any other woman would have fallen for how sweet he looked and acted, and at the end of the day, they would regret their choice.“You have a wife, Mr. Alexander.” Lauren reminded him, trying not to show how irritated she was.“Yes, Lauren. But she doesn't appeal to me much, the way you do. If I had met you before I met her, I would have chosen you.” Alexander replied and then placed his hand o
