Layla and Nathan both came out of the car. "Take care, Reagan, we will see at lunchtime," Layla muttered before walking away with Nathan beside her. "You know it looks crazy. We have to act like friends whereas we are more than that," Nathan replied as they joined Alistair in the elevator which was about to close up. "You guys are late," he replied, gazing at his wristwatch."We are sorry boss," they both muttered with their heads bowed."Tell me what are we doing today? What's my schedule?" He tilted his neck towards Layla. "I am not in charge of that. Kathy is the one in charge," she replied looking at him."Kathy?" He asked, looking confused."Yes boss," she replied with a smile on her lips. "Get to Kathy, she should be in my office in the next three minutes. I need to know what's going on, and what I am up to today.""Yes boss," she replied, looking away."You, what are you doing today?" Alistair's gaze was on Nathan."Me?" He asked, pointing at himself."Of course you. Is there
"Boss, Kathy just informed me she's currently ill. She won't be showing up at work today," Layla replied as they walked into Mr. Alistair's office."She's ill? Why didn't she call in earlier to inform us?" He asked as he walked over to his seat. "She forgot. If she didn't, I am sure she would have been here.""Are you sure about that? You just got here, don't think you already know her. I am not saying she's bad or tricky. I am just saying you shouldn't trust her just like that," he muttered as he sat down."Noted boss," she replied, staring at him. "What about my schedule for today? What are we going to do about it?" He asked, gazing at me. Immediately Layla's phone buzzed, "What are we going to do about it right? I am on it, just be patient. She just sent your schedule layout to my mail.""Great, please check it out. I want to be sure I won't waste any time coming to the office today," he muttered gazing at Nathan who had been silent."Nathan you aren't saying any word. What's going
"I do, but I think we have missed the point, Alistair," she muttered as she also got up from her seat."What could that be?" He asked, staring at her with his hands crossed."The reason for accepting her back into your life," she replied."Oh, that's true. Well, this was what I had in mind. I am going to pretend as if I am in love with her. You and I both know that she's not in love with me.We both know what she's trying to do. We also know who the real boyfriend is, right?"Layla nodded her head, "Yeah I know who it is.""What I am going to do is to pretend. I show her all the affection I can. Buy her gift, and do the rest. Even if it involves bringing her father back to the company.I plan on making her feel like she has control over me. All this is also to gain her trust, and also make her open to me."It didn't sit well with Layla. She shook her head, "That's not a good approach if you ask me.""It's not?" He asked, looking confused."It's not. Here's my reason," she walked towar
They both laid back on the bed gazing at each other. "I was right last night. I knew none of us was going to wake up to continue what we both started.That's the reason why I said we should go on last night without stopping." Oliver muttered.Kathy rolled her eyes, "I know, but at least we have the whole day to ourselves. There's no need for you to complain.""There's no need to complain? Can you hear yourself? This is not the first time this has happened. I spoke about this, but you don't want to change right?""Excuse me. It's not like it's my fault. I was tired, and I needed time to rest. I didn't want to have sex with you when I was tired. I also want to engage in it. I didn't want it to be one-sided, do you understand?""Really? You don't want it to be one-sided?""Yes, I don't want it to be one-sided. You are aware of this. It's not like you woke me up when you woke up. It's not like I wouldn't have woken up, or given you one or two excuses.This has always been the case. After
He made sure he dried every part of her body. When Oliver was done, he moved to the other side of the bed. "Do your legs still hurt?"She nodded her head, "It does. You know you could have gone easy on me. But you didn't, and now this. I am glad I ain't going to work today. I am sure before the end of today the pain would have gone.""Don't blame me. Stop acting as if you didn't enjoy it. Besides, how about I use my magic lips on your pussy. Who knows it might work," he rolled his eyes."What? Are you fucking serious? I am complaining about feeling pains down there, and you are hell-bent on deriving pleasure?" She was shocked."What? It was just a suggestion. If you want me to go ahead with it, fine. If you don't want me to go ahead with it. It's still fine, you don't have to raise your voice at me. You know, right?" Oliver asked, looking away."Really? It's not like I raised my voice at you. Stop trying to pass the blame on me," she replied.That didn't sit well with Oliver. He tilte
Mr. Wilde rolled his eyes, "Come on, it's not like we have another way out of this. I didn't say I wasn't going to pay them.""Yeah, you did. You said it, stop denying it," she replied as she got on her feet."What I meant by that was. I won't pay them immediately, but I was surely going to pay them later. Later when I have everything sorted out," he replied as he got on his feet."When? When will that happen? When will your daughter and I die?" She raised her voice at him."No, that's not possible. I just need you to trust me that's it. I promise to do everything within my might to get us to our past glory. I just need you to be patient with me," he replied facing the wall."You are going to do this. You are going to get us back to our past glory. You are going to fix this. This, that, many promises. But you still haven't answered my question, when? When is all this going to happen? When?" She asked as she placed her hands on his shoulder."When?" He turned towards her, "This is me b
"A deal?" He asked, looking shocked. He couldn't decipher what she was talking about. The daughter he knows isn't into any form of business. Neither is she working in any business organization, what could she be probably talking about?"Yeah, you heard me correctly Dad. A business deal," she replied using a firm voice.Mr. Wilde burst into laughter. Elara wasn't surprised, she was expecting it from her Dad. Besides it sounds all odd for her to appear, and ask for a business deal."Come on baby girl, what did Ethan give you to drink last night?" He asked as he got up from his seat."I am a serious Dad. I heard your conversation with Mum. You were begging her to help you right?" He paused, and tilted his head towards her, wearing a serious look. The room suddenly became quiet."Yes, Dad, I did listen to every one of you guys' conversations. Your plan to lay off some staff, and the rest," she muttered looking straight into the eyes of her father."You were eavesdropping on our conversati
"What do you mean by that can't happen? Aren't you the one who said you don't believe that I can get you back to the company?If you don't believe this, why are you still adamant about knowing what the two terms are? Wait a minute, you believe I can do it right?" She asked mockingly."Does that matter at all? What I want to know is what the two terms are. I just can't blindly accept any offer. Don't get me wrong, I am not in any way saying I don't trust you, but I just can't jump into a deal I know nothing about," he replied."You just can't? That's because you don't trust me. Come on Dad I am your daughter, you should be able to trust me. You know I won't hurt you, I don't want you to get into any form of hurt," she replied, turning her back on her father."If that's the case. Then why don't you tell me about it? I am your Dad, I see no reason why you should hide things like this from me." He asked.She huffed and turned to face him. "Fine, I am going to tell you about it. It might s
