Their End, My Beginning novel Chapter 26

5 days later

*Kat’s POV

With a sigh, I took my eyes off the first-floor design I had completed for Waynst’s new office for today. After the instruction he gave me before getting into my office, he contacted me to let me know if he had any change of plans or had any new idea struck his mind and that made me erase some outline I had already made. So today mostly consisted of me erasing and drawing again.

It was frustrating but guess what, this is what I loved and that’s the 2nd reason why I am still in this job no matter how many times I have thrown my stationery items on to the floor because of frustration. And the 1st reason is to get money to get back my dad’s company from mom’s sis, Carol. All the respect for her has gone by now and hence no aunt before her name.

Shaking her face of my thoughts, I closed my computer and packed my things on the table. I kept all the designs in the shelf that is on my right and locked it. My shelf has locks because these designs are important for his company and to avoid the risk of someone taking the designs my shelf has locks. I turned around to see Ryder still working. Working Ryder is soo hot. Just by looking at him turned me on. Focus Kat focus he is not the Ryder we know anymore said my subconscious. She is right. ‘I always am’ she says smugly. Internally eye rolling at my subconscious and externally sighing thinking about Ryder, I left my office and was walking to the elevator, thinking about the past five days.

Past 5 days were eventful with Ryder avoiding me as if I am a plague and my subconscious always scolding me telling that the Ryder in front of me is not the Ryder I used to know. The more I work with him I find the feelings I had for him, who am I kidding I have never got over him, so technically I found that my love for him irritating me so much because it itches me, to be near him, to think of the times we were together making me cry which thank god I haven’t done in front of him. Jesus, I can’t even bring myself to think if I had done that. How embarrassing would that be? Me crying in front of my client.
