He wasn't lying, he wasn't speaking out of spite, he wasn't trying to hurt her. She was being honest, and this shocked her so much that she didn't know what to say.

How could he not have had a good time? He enjoyed himself like a kid, he worked his ass off and on top of that he met an interesting girl. She could have sworn they shared the sentiment.

Well no, he was wrong again. Three mistakes in a row and with the same person.

"Did you have a bad time?" he asked, confused. Don't you find me funny?

"Are you really asking me that?" He replied in a sad tone.

God, you are a ridiculous narcissist.

He raised his eyebrows.

"So you ridiculous narcissistic jerk." You leave work embarrassed for having farted in front of me and now you insult me so widely.

“Once respect is lost there is no going back.

“Great, because I was starting to get tired of all the ceremony.

Leah rolled her eyes.

    "If you keep saying such nice things to me, it's me who's going to turn red," he commented, as if he hadn't been about to die. Am I to understand by this that you have not forgiven me? I am in favor of revenge, but don't you think that an outrage would be going too far? “It was unintentional, I hadn't even seen you, and you're the one who went through the lining of the traffic light. Jesse cocked his head with a mischievous smile. "Admit it, you wanted to kill me…or at least see me again." If not, I can't explain why you took this road when you come out of the parallel road through the parking lot of the building. "I'm one more shabby associate with secretarial assistant skills, I don't have a place in any parking lot," she replied dryly. And I didn't know I'd see you again. “You don't have a space in the parking lot because you shouldn't even have a driver's license. In this aspect, more than French you seem Italian. Lea preferred to

    "It's not that," he explained quickly. I just don't understand why it's necessary to go to trial. Cherry's was willing to pay double the settlement for damages. Much more than anyone expected. And even so… "So, if they've decided not to sign, it must be because the client thinks he can get a lot more," he interjected, looking at her with a sufficient smile. There's a murky story behind the firing and Bennett thinks it could fleece Cherry's, so he goes to court: that and no more. And yes Cherry's has not been scared because the matter is getting bigger, it is because they also have an ace up their sleeve or, at least, a defense against the coup. There's something they're not telling you, and if they haven't, it must be because they were waiting for me to open up. You have not made them feel confident to tell you. “What? How not? I'm your lawyer, whether you trust it or not, you're going to have to spit it out. If not, how am I going to help them? "Not

    He waited patiently for Yuri to finish her speech and noted the dinner date and time on the phone's calendar. He soon returned to his speculations: everyone was invited. That was good, on the one hand, because she would go unnoticed, and bad, on the other, because she would also be very aware that everyone was ignoring her. It is not that socializing was bad for her, nor that people passed her by. They looked for her when they had a problem “that was already something”, and Julie and company were nice, although they continued to form a closed group that didn't need a fourth member.At least he could take a partner, right? Shan would gladly pretend to be his college girlfriend if there was food involved. Only Lea wasn't going to eat in front of fifteen pairs of eyes with a great ability to criticize.He sighed and left the room without bothering to pretend he had a lunch to rescue from his cubicle. His reasoning was strange. Sometimes a contradiction. And sh

    I do not look. He continued with his eyes fixed on the wall, bloodshot. Irritation was leaking from his pores. It was a detonator and it seemed that at the slightest it would explode, but that was nothing new: Marc lived on the edge and Jesse did not want to imagine how exhaustive it had to be. “You knew it? he asked suddenly. “The fact that? “That Yuri is pregnant. He told me yesterday. Jesse swallowed very slowly. “I was…I was so excited,” Marc murmured, running a hand through his hair. I told him I was glad, that everything was fine, and waited a courtesy twenty minutes to get out of there without showing that he needed to breathe. "And did you breathe enough to calm down?" Marc dropped his hand. The blond locks shot out. "No, Jesse, because we're just as likely to go to hell today as we were yesterday." In fact, we have more, because the day is closer. He already knew the answer to the question, but he asked

    A while later he entered the restaurant with all the confidence he could feign. She greeted the bosses”Sandoval, Ambani, and Moore”among the eighteen guests, nervous if anyone was watching her, and took the only free chair. “I think you sat down where Sandoval's plug was, her cousin from Barcelona. He took off to the bathroom five minutes ago and he's not back yet, but better. We at least like you,” Kara commented, her mouth twisting. She had exaggerated her catlike features with a heavy layer of makeup; big gold Bollywood type earrings completed her outfit. I love your dress. “Do not even say it. You are beautiful “corroborated Julie, on the other side of the table. As usual, she was dressed in pale pink, discreet and adorable. You all are. Lea noticed what was important. The champagne had already been served, a sign that the speech was over and she could put her plan into action: drink until she was drunk enough to show her rock”and”roll side. "We w

    Leah sighed and threw her head back. "I have come with an open heart, Rumba to raise the dead, Or to spit your sweet poison...». Jesse rested her chin on her shoulder, continuing to rock forward, where she begged for a while longer clinging to her pants. A knot had formed somewhere in her stomach, which she squeezed and squeezed, asking for another kind of approach. "... For you to bite this tongue, my black mamba..." she sang in a deep voice. That's how it's done. Are you going to take it all out today? Are you going to free yourself at last...? Leah turned around and put her hands on his shoulders again. He directed them like a magnet to his waist. He wedged his knees between hers to dance side by side. It was much hotter. She could feel the dress clinging to her skin, even the wet nape of her neck and a tingling in her lower abdomen. She exchanged an intent look with Jesse, who was waiting for an answer and wasn't going to settle for less.

    "What wasn't that bad?" he repeated, taking a step closer. He lifted her chin by tapping it three times right at the base. I thought I was going to die in your arms. I had a real fear of not surviving. I was reaching for my cell phone in the back pocket of my pants to call my mother in case she didn't live to tell the tale. "You're exaggerating," he muttered, staring at the ground. Everybody kisses like that. “First, not everyone has a mouth that looks like a vacuum cleaner and a three”dimensional portal at the same time. And second: if everyone kissed like that, they would have slapped the twenty. It's been a pleasure living to test your style, mamba. Leah shook her head, as if she didn't want to accept what he was saying. She made to leave, but at the last moment Jesse grabbed her hand in a fit that would cost him his reputation. I could already see it the next day in the Miami paper courtesy of the associates: "Jesse Ambani sleeps with his deputy."

    "These are fresh Persian lilies," he insisted. Wentworth snorted a curse word. "And they're so pretty, Jesse, I appreciate that so I won't have to rack my brains looking for something perfect for my date tonight." But there's no use apologizing if you end up doing it again. I don't know how I'd react if that were the case, I'm only sure that, if that were the case, you could give me a fucking desert rose, which I'd stick up your ass with thorns included. "Luckily that won't happen." »Went… Forgive me, okay? Sometimes I don't think about the consequences of what I do, and don't start with that "you're a bit of an idiot to be a psychologist", because having studied the human mind doesn't mean that I know it in detail nor can I be wrong, just as it doesn't eliminate that sometimes…it can be selfish,” he remembered, thinking of how Lea had exploded when she found out about his sabotage. Of course she did know how to make him feel bad. Sorry. Very sorry.

    "Never thank me because I can always do better." And I'll always do better if you let me. Are you going to leave me? Lea smiled without wanting or being able to remedy her weakness. “In peace? Never. "That was what I wanted to hear." "What else could I tell you?" My life is much more beautiful when you are in it. What movie is that line from? Or is it from an Elton John song? “The second. "I think it's a good idea to move on to song choruses, because I wouldn't know how to respond to that if it wasn't with a Frankie Vallie…" She cupped her hands into a horn and yelled. I love you baby, and if it's quite all right, I need you baaaaaaby, to warm the lonely nights…! Lea silenced him by covering his mouth and giving him an elbow with the fit of laughter lurking. He defended himself by curling up in the seat, looking at her with merry eyes. His amused childish smile made her heart race. "I love you baby," she crooned

    Wentworth got up and set the potatoes aside. The only reason he'd do that was because he'd run out of them, so Jesse didn't try to dig into the bottom of the bag. "Do you want me to help you be spontaneous?" he repeated with special sarcasm. You're the one who always picks me up with women, Jesse, you don't need anyone to convince a woman to be with you. And less three guys who have cost much more than you. That one over there took twenty years, and they'll end up leaving your brother, so… I'm going for the humus. "You're going to be a seal," Marc insisted, his eyes following him. And why is he going to leave me? I got married so that doesn't happen. "Have you heard of divorce?" asked Wentworth wryly. “Yes, and I've also heard that I'm a very bastard lawyer. You will have no way to run from me if I defend myself in court. Moore shook her head. "I'll never understand how you can refer to her and your relationship in those terms and expe

    “ Merde. Sorry. She took off her belt and looked at him very seriously. Take advantage of the traffic light and let's change the site. I don't like to see you suffer. Jesse wanted to retort, but she was so sure of what she was up to that he had to give in. She was driving fine. So much so that he was not scared the only time he took him home, and not only because it was a short journey, but because he knew how to distract him and comply with all road safety regulations. So she walked around the car to switch places, taking the liberty of patting him on the ass as she passed. “Better? she asked, once she had buckled on the pilot's seatbelt. Jesse smiled and showed the hand he'd spanked her with. "Very much, don't you see the pixie dust?" She laughed. "Am I officially Tinker Bell?" "Only until you get tired of Peter Pan." "I doubt I'll get tired. It was my favorite cartoon movie. or so it says my father. S

    "Check it out with your own eyes." Jesse glared at her and stepped over the threshold without a second thought. She walked through the living room with her body tense, past the kitchen with a hurried step, and ended up heading to the bedroom. Before that, his attention was caught by the light on in the bathroom, the echo of a song by Huecco and a female voice humming it under his breath. Jesse stopped in front of the ajar door, her heart beating so fast. He took a deep breath and released the air He repeated it once. Other. And another… “That I've cut his hair, I haven't stuck the scissors in his trachea! Shan snapped from behind him. Jesse turned to glare at her resentfully. "And what do you think is worse?" She didn't wait for him to answer and pushed the door very slowly, covering her eyes with her hands. Slowly, as if she were in a horror movie and wasn't quite sure if she wanted to continue watching it, she spread her fing

    You even look your dog in the eye and you know what he misses because it is only a reflection of what you need: to be happy. And I'm always happy “he pointed out, extending his arms”, but you duplicate that illusion in such a way that you make me look like a sad man when I'm not with you. "I am aware of my shortcomings because I have seen them thanks to you," he continued. He stuck out his fingers to enumerate. Whim should not be the engine of movement, joking with everything is not always correct, decisions must be made calibrating the pros and cons, I have to be humble from time to time and, above all: I must accept the truth when I have it in front of me , especially when the truth loves me and I love her. "Seriously, I love you. I am in love with what we do. From playing I Spy after we cum, from philosophizing with porn, from chasing ice cream carts, from recreating movie dialogues. I miss your sucky kisses, your skirts cut with scissors and that y

    Jesse frowned. “What are you talking about? “Marc and I like to gamble. He said you'd never get over Victoria and I said you'd end up falling for another woman with the right little push. I was a couple of months late thinking about how to get together without it being noticed until the light went out on the web. Jesse's eyes narrowed. "Are you telling me that you gave me that brutal row knowing that I fell into your trap, when on top of that, surely, you made money? “Man, I had to give consistency to my alibi. If I didn't get angry you might be suspicious. Or not, he mused, you're not as smart as you think, but I needed to entertain myself somehow. “As for the money, he hasn't paid me yet. You have to start dating her to get paid. We have a second bet, which is that if you marry her, Marc will be paying me a monthly salary from my retirement until they bury me. "Don't fuck with me," he huffed, in shock.

    And he started walking rubbing his temple, which he felt was on the verge of sudden death. It always happened to him. He stopped before turning the corner to go by the photocopier, as if he had just remembered something important, and turned to face Marc, who was leaning against the wall, watching him. “I'm sorry about what I said to you on the phone,” Jesse added aloud. "Didn't you hear me?" You can't take someone seriously when they're angry,” he repeated, shrugging. And it's the least I deserve after fucking your shoulder. "I'll take off the bandage in a few days." Does that mean I have forty”eight hours to insult you and that it's justified? "I'll be all ears if you want to bash my ego." “Perfect. Marc half smiled. Then they went on their way without giving much importance to the matter. He passed the copy room. "…they called me, and I cheered up because I like you," she heard from outside. “Oscar, look, you

    They think we're back. "I considered it, I admit it." “The fact that? "Yes, I would be interested in winning you back." It's been years thinking that I would die for you. And I would. But what you tell me about the hostile uterus… I value my carrot too much to risk it. He received a blow to the shoulder. Ouch, right on the war wound. Seriously now... Do you think I look at you like I'm in love? Everyone says so. “I know how to differentiate your eyes of love from your eyes of a joker asshole, and the look of the former is no longer for me. “Well, girl, that's life. You traded me for a baby, now you put up with it. "I traded you for nothing." “No, you'll see that you're going to have a baby. You only needed my blessings: I bless you. Now go get your ass poked.

    Kyoto leaned back at the end of the corridor. Jesse entered the copier room to hide from the onlookers and stood in front of her. He was so pissed off he could only be sad, and it didn't help that Lea conveyed something similar. "You don't have to go," he murmured, searching her eyes. If I have been abusing your trust and I have not even given you proper work, I am very sorry, but... She silenced him only by lifting her chin. "That's not what I want you to apologize for. Jesse shifted from one leg to the other and rested her hand on the copier, not knowing what to say. “I can't apologize for wanting to spend time with someone I care about. I can apologize for not realizing that I was displacing you. "Leave it, it doesn't matter." There is nothing more to say, we have already discussed everything a while ago. "Is that what you thought of as talking?" He shook his head. You haven't even let me explain myself well, and what I was
