The way they were tempting him, he almost blew up.He had no idea how he got home but he could remember waiting with Lola who ordered a cab, she kept asking him questions he couldn't answer.Archer saw to it that she entered the cab and then waited for his driver to come to pick him up, he had walked into the house startling Gabriel.The latter had bombarded him with questions but Archer couldn't answer him.

I think this question comes after a month.""Well, you are a special case and I have to ask every minute."Archer chuckled while Madison stared at him curiously. "Do you have anything to tell me?" she asked.The question made Archer pause and look at her curiously."Like what?"Madison shrugged.Archer wondered if she found out about what had happened during their night out.

Archer furrowed his brows, unaware of where this was going."I have no idea what you are talking about," he said."Of course you don't. Nothing is hidden under the sun. Who knew you would be exposed like this?" the manager said."I am going to humor you by pretending I know what you are talking about.""You don't have to pretend. I wondered why you felt so confident because you smashed the CEO to get here." the manager snickered.He clapped for Archer, "If I liked you, I would have applauded you for being a player with such high tastes."Archer clenched his jaw, he was getting tired of all of this. Why does everyone keep attacking him?He s

Archer followed Madison to his office, his heart beating so fast that he was afraid she could hear it.He checked his watch and sighed to himself, he was late and his manager was going to go off on him again.Like being in an article and the center of attention wasn't enough. Archer lifted his head when Madison opened the door to her office.She entered and started pacing almost immediately.
