Alpha's White Lie (Rosy and Blake) novel Chapter 43

Chapter 43

In the last 3 weeks, there had been a few changes around the company. Some changes were welcomed by everyone but others were frowned upon. Patrick had been having a lot of meetings with Blake and every time there was an upset and gloomy Patrick walking out of Blake’s office. I had noticed that Blake had started to do a lot of the work Patrick did. I didn’t talk to Blake about work outside of work. I made sure that was something that didn’t clash with us

now living together.

Once Patrick had finished his little presentation, Blake said a little thank you to everyone and reminded everyone not to forget about the Gala. The Gala was going to be hosted in the ballroom we had on the 11th floor. We hired out the ballroom for functions since it had a spectacular sea view. The beauty of

Mariners Bay was the sea view.

Once Blake was done we finished off the meeting with a little finger food lunch. I excused myself and went to hid in my office. I had a lot of work piled up with the week I had off work and I seriously needed to catch up. Plus with the Gala project, my workload had doubled and thank god for Seth, the Gala coordinator, because I had no clue on what to do. He had everything under control which I was so happy about.

“Hey Boss” Lilly poked her head into my office.

“Yeah” I replied. My eyes not leaving my computer screen.

“Umm I have food for you,” she said and walked into my office with a little plate of food. It was the finger food from the meeting we just had.

“Mr Cooper just stopped by. He brought this and said to ask you to eat” Lilly had a smirk on her face.

“Oh did he now. What if I don’t want to eat?” I asked.

“He did answer that too. He said if you don’t eat, he will make sure everyone in the office knows about your new living årrangement” her smirk turned into a huge smile “so please feel free not to eat because I really want to know about this. Something tells me whatever your new arrangement is, it’s very

interesting”

“Give me the damn plate!” I hissed. This wasn’t fair! He knew I didn’t want anyone to know. Even though it wasn’t like a boyfriend–girlfriend relationship, that’s exactly what people would think and talk about and I didn’t want people making this sound like something nasty.

Lilly laughed and put the plate in front of me. I picked up the sandwich and took a picture of me eating it and sent it to Blake.

Good girl He replied.

Seriously?! I can’t believe you’re blackmailing me

Well if you would just listen, I wouldn’t have the need too. I keep telling you that you need to stop working and have your lunch breaks and eat FOOD. His reply made me smile.

I never had a proper lunch at the correct time. It was usually at 4 or 5 in the afternoon when I would finally snack on something. Till now, no one really cared to make sure I had eaten in time. His concern made me smile.

“That’s a very pretty smile” I looked up from my phone and Seth was standing at the door.

Seth and I had become good friends in the last few weeks. He was chatty and loved to make dirty jokes which would be considered highly inappropriate,

“Just texting a friend. Please come have a seat” I replied putting my phone away.

He seats down and put his folder on my table.

“This friend have a name?” He asked and wiggled his eyebrows suggestively.

“Yeah, his called none of your business,” I said and laughed. I was actually glad Blake send the food. Now that I was eating I didn’t realise how hungry I
