Chapter 43

Love

I told Ellis the truth. It was like a heavy burden being lifted off toe. His reaction was priceless. So many emotions.

He was so close after I told him. A didn’t know he’d react the way he did at all. The truth didn’t only set me free, but him as well There was a faint smile on his lips as we parted, and his eyes… OH, GODDESS THOSE EYES.

I was deep into my work when I received a call from the head of HR, Michael. He wanted to see me in his office. I tried to avoid him. I made my way to his office and knocked once. I heard a come in and entered. He watched me with pursed lips.

“Thank you for coming, Ms. Chasia,”

I stared at him, and he seemed a little uncomfortable with my watch. Was he wearing makeup on his face? I scowled as he asked

me to sit down.

“We have a policy here of not allowing relationships at work, and it has come to our attention as a department that you and Mr Kofflin are in a romantic affair,”

“An affair?” I murmured. He cleared his throat and loosened his tie.

Well, I meant a passionate relationship,” he corrected, and I narrowed my eyes on him.

“You know what I mean,” he snided, not looking at me. Could it be he was jealous that I was dating David?

Mr Krayton, what happened in New York was unfortunate, but I’m hoping we can move past it without any hard feelings,”

Maybe it’s Ellis who asked him to say that because he wants us,‘ Vee tried to sound nonchalant, but she was excited about the thought that Ellis was jealous to see us with David.

‘Oh, Vee, get over him and move on,‘ I sighed, bored with her talk about Ellis already. She needed to understand that Ellis and I would never be together again.

David smiled yet kept a straight face, “Why did that happen in the hotel room? We were doing great before you freaked out.” “Did I bruise your ego after I rejected sex with you?” I questioned, mockery evident in my tone. He snarled. He was such a petty

CEO.

“You didn’t reject me. You started crying and left. I scared you with all my handsome glory and my, you know what,” he smirked. I groaned at the back of my throat. So arrogant.

“Don’t be cocky. You’re nothing special,” I sneered, glancing down at my lap to ensure he picked my words‘ hidden meaning.

“And you are not my type,” he said. I could hear the bitterness in his tone. I was affronted by that.

“I’m everyone’s type,” I retorted sharply.

“Not mine. Don’t get me wrong, you’re hot, but I was relieved we didn’t fuck,” he said.

“Why?”

“Is your ego injured?” he tilted his neck like a curious child. I only glared at him for his childishness.

“What is your type?”

“This is not a topic to discuss with your boss,” he said, his gaze turning away.

“Well, why are we talking about non–office–relating issues?”

You brought it up,” he retorted.

“Wait, do you think I’m jealous of your relationship with David Rofflin?” he was bed.

“Then explain why you’re telling me to end my relationship,” I folded my arms against my chest. He was speechless, opening and closing his mouth like a fisli in water. I was right. Michael developed feelings for me and couldn’t stand to see me with

another man.

We observed each other when the door opened, and Jace walked in. Jace stood at the entrance, his brows rising as he observed us.
