The next day at work, Archer called for an emergency meeting with the team leaders.Eric, Lola, and Charles sat in the conference room waiting for him as usual. Eric was red-faced as he chewed on his fingernails.Lola sat stiffly beside him and refused to acknowledge his existence and Charles, the most level-headed colleague he had ever met,He had his disgust for Eric so vivid on his face like a painting. Eric sighed, he should have known they would be mad at him for admitting the things he did yesterday.But still, he didn't expect it to hurt this much. Eric knew he wasn't close to them, but he prided himself on being one of the best here and being alienated didn't look too good for him.Archer entered the office and Eric felt his scowl deepen.

Archer was expecting a more imploding bad need but this caught him by surprise.He glanced at Ferguson who was still staring at him with a scowl on his face, Archer cocked his head to the side to meet his gaze.They locked eyes for some time till realization dawned on Archer, this time he couldn't resist the scowl on his face."You think I gave it to him?" he all but yelled.Ferguson shrugged, "I didn't say a word.""But you implied it, didn't you?" Archer asked, he looked around the room and the other man looked bored.Madison looked like she would rather be anywhere but here."I cannot believe this. When I brought in millions of money, you were the happiest person in the room. But now you are accusing me without pointing fingers because I saved this company.""What exactly did you save this company from? Y

Archer took a cab to Jack's company. His phone kept vibrating with text messages from Madison.It was filled with urgent messages about how Ferguson felt disrespected and why Archer left the meeting abruptly.Archer didn't answer any of the messages, he was angry, and sparring with Ferguson would make him more angry.How dare that man sit in his high chair and lecture him? Calling him a lowly employee and whatnot.Archer forced himself to calm down.He stood in front of Jack's building, his hand tightened into a fist. The thought of Jack brought nothing but anger to him.To confront him, Archer needed to be calm. There is nothing he will achieve if he barges in there with anger.He strolled into the building and went straight to the place he knew Jack would be. "Hello," he greeted the assistant."Hello? Do you have an appointment with Mr Callaghan?" she asked in a preppy tone."No, but please tell him Archer is here to see him.""I am sorry sir, we don't operate that way." she shook

Jack's jaw dropped alongside his pen as he stared at Archer. He waited for Archer to burst into laughter and say he was joking.But such a reaction wasn't forthcoming from him not that he has known Archer as someone who jokes."What?" Jack asked.Archer narrowed his eyes, was this jackass pretending not to know what he was talking about?How was it possible that they were in a relationship no matter how dysfunctional it was that he had no idea his girlfriend was pregnant?"What did you just say?" Jack asked.Archer scowled at him, "Let's stop the pretense, shall we?""I have no idea what you are talking about." Jack said, "I didn't know she was pregnant."Archer thought he heard him mumbling, "Hailey is pregnant?" or something along those lines."Stop lying," Archer snarled."I am speaking the truth, I haven't spoken to her in a while.""Since when? Are you not joined at the hip?""Nor recently.""And why should I believe you?" Archer questioned.Jack kept quiet, "Because if I knew s

"I was just, uh, waiting for you."Archer shot him a glare that could freeze time. "What do you want, Eric? I've had a long day."Eric bit his lip, choosing his words carefully. "I, um, wanted to talk about the project. I know you asked for those reports, and I—""You know what, Eric? I don't have time for this," Archer interrupted."I understand, but I thought maybe we could discuss it," Eric replied, desperation creeping into his voice.Archer narr
