The Last Laugh novel Chapter 38

***

Sawyer's POV:

I was in my office when an angry looking Kevin stormed in.

"Hey, learn to knock."  I stated.

"There's something you have to tell me!" Kevin growled angrily, hitting my table with both hands.

I frowned, confused, and looked up at him.

"What's wrong, Kevin?"

"Oh, don't ask me that! You know very well!" he hit my table again, angrily.

"Hey, hey, hey, if you hit my table again, I'll slap the fuck outta you." I said casually. He stared at me, his face red with anger.

"Kevin, sit down and explain." I told him.

What was getting him so annoyed?

He sat down.

"Can you tell me,"

"Yes?" I replied

"Why the fuck your secretary is coincidentally called Ace??"

Oops. I stared at him silently.

"Yes, he's called Ace and so??" I tried to act innocent.

"And so?? And so?? I searched on the internet for your so-called popular, American chef and his show and guess what?"

I didn't answer. I felt amused at his reaction but I tried my best not to laugh.

"What, Kevin?"

"He does not exist! Neither does his show! Sawyer, tell me the truth. You moaned 'Ace' the whole night while we had sex. And the only Ace I know so far is your secretary!"

I smirked.

"And what makes you so sure that he's the one??"

"Don't take me for a fool, Sawyer. I'm not stupid."

I smiled.

"Fine. Yes, he's the one. So what??"

Kevin's face became even more red with anger.

"So what??" he repeated.

"Yes. Tell me, Kevin. Are you jealous?" I asked, amused.

When he didn't reply, I giggled.

"You're jealous?? Hahahaha. You have no right, sweety pie, to be jealous." I stood up and went over to him. "Kevin." I caressed his face.

He pushed my hand away. I laughed.

"We're not dating, we're not in love and we'll probably never be. You're just my favorite fuck toy." I held his chin and made him look at me in the eyes, "Don't you ever dare interfere in my other relationships okay?"

"But Sawyer–"

"Hush! We had an agreement. We only sleep together."

"But what if I'm beginning to have feelings for you??"

I burst out laughing and returned to my seat.

"Feelings?? Are you serious?? Oh my gosh, fuck you. You're so funny." I giggled. He looked at me like I was heartless.

"Now listen." I stated, "Don't you ever get uselessly jealous like you did today. Or, you put a big cross on our little relationship. Now get out."

Kevin stared at me like he was gonna kill me.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Hum! I guess I'll have to end our so-called relationship. Maybe that'll make both of us feel better."

"No!" he suddenly exclaimed.

"Excuse me?"

"No, don't end it. I'm sorry."

I smirked and went over to him again.

"Good boy." I leaned in and gave him a slow passionate kiss, "That better?"

"Y– yes."

"Nice. How 'bout I come to your house after work today and give you a lil something."

His eyes brightened.
