Chapter 4 The office gossip

This incident transpired during the time Mr Taylor parted with Lizzie until he was notified by Lorenzo his escort.......

The elevator unfurls up to a long passageway on the second floor, and Lizzie departs from the elevator to the unit where her post in the firm was located. She bypasses her two working associates, who were famous in the organization for their confection fiction of people's lives. They stood with some files holding on their hands, outside the manager's office but they were still murmuring while gossiping before they were let in. She walked through the colleagues and cursed in her mind, "Why did I have to meet with these two this morning and look at how they are looking at my body intensely? They are almost stripping me naked. I hate these."

Her footsteps increase pace after she bypasses them. She could hear how they murmured about her before she branched to another corridor that led her to her office at a corner. "

Did you see that, she has just come out of the new CEO's office, after half an hour since the time we were given the sack from the boardroom? Didn't I tell you Monica, She is a Sl*t. She had to use her panties again to get to that position. She has precisely screwed him in his office. She doesn't feel remorseful ess even having a boyfriend who is so handsome, romantic, and caring. He even owns a pub and a casino business downtown. Poor guy, I wonder why he keeps having a preference for her, Despite him being cheated on. I wish he chose me instead of her when I was single. " Monica comments,

" I wonder why she stood so low and she was earning quite a good salary as the assistant secretary and more so she lives in the North Parkland Estate Apartment. That she owns and those are the most expensive apartments to buy in the city compared to our... "

The conversation is cut short by a deep husky voice that is heard inside the manager's office. "Yes, come!"

They both enter the office. He speaks while typing From the keyboard that was connected to a computer.

"Have a seat and I would like to insist on both of you. That I will be collecting some personal details according to the new management in the firm. If you are not comfortable with it. I would ask my female assistant to help you while giving out your confidential data. The information will be confidential and every staff is urged to capitulate with it. "

He leans toward it to find a file full of printed papers in it. The two ladies each were to get one piece of printed paper and a pen. He chuckles before speaking

" Mmm, You will fill the papers and I will compile the data on my computer when you are through, It will be convenient if you are done before dusk. These details ought to be forwarded before tomorrow morning, Also take your time as you fill in the required details. "

May I have the files for the accounts, that you were supposed to bring?

" They handed over the files that they were still holding in their hands as they rose to take a leave from the manager's office.

Back to Lizzie who was in short of breath before she entered her office and latched herself inside. She didn't bother to look if there was anyone inside and she was almost in solace when a deep voice is heard in the office.

" Lizzie, What's going on? Why did you close the door? As if someone is hounding you? "

she replied holding her heart not to pop out after that impulsive Astonishment from the individual who had long been there seated.

" What the f**k! You almost caused me to get a heart attack. Do you know that?"

He replies as he stood from his seat and he chuckles.

"Mmmm, how can I know that while your body's action says that you were doing something vicious? Come on bestie, tell me what made you want to lie low even in the office or is it our new boss who has startled you this much with his charming complexion, less attractive than mine? Which made you run this way? "

Her aura changes to a serious one as she replies.

"What stupidity are you talking about, and what if he is way too charming more than you, The fact is I have nothing to admit to you, it's none of your business."

That ground down her heart because she has never answered his first-class best friend in such a tone. In Paul's mind, he murmured,

" Something must have gone wrong while she was in the CEO'S office and who could these CEOs be that I have been hearing of since dawn?"

He replies as she looks at the lady who looked more stunning when angry and serious.

"What! Okay, I will not pressure you to let it out but Incase you need somebody to ramble about, you know where to track me down from. See you soon bestie."

He is on his way out when a hand blunders to his huge, masculine full chest from behind, and a soft weeping voice is heard from his back.

"Please don't go, I. I..am so..sorry I don't know what is taking off with me, I am a mess right now I am trying to filter everything that is going on since dawn and I know that I was not supposed to talk to You in such a tone. Please forgive me.. pleas.."

She continues sobbing on his back until he turns and embraces her in front of his chest and he cuddles the sobbing infant until her cheeks are wet and turned red. He holds up on her like a baby and he positions her on the couch next to the office table he seats and he lets her head lay on his thighs as she cuddles her hair until her body calms down.

She starts lamenting about the incidents that had taken over in her mind that had ended up messing up her brain. Lizzie's with her calm voice started speaking,

"Do you remember when I pointed out to you that I was going partying without you and I was so furious that you had turned my offer down that night? "

Before she could mention what happened, The subsequent thing that happened was a loud bang from the door which made Lizzie lift her body and face to the direction the sound came from and see the human who had the insolence to bhang into her office with the lack of manners that he had to intrude their peace together inside. Her hands that were clasping half of her body rose, and instantly lost strength leading her to tumble back to his thighs after seeing the intruder's face with her heart beating at a higher rate compared to the usual heartbeat rate. Her face blushed and she was running out of breath. Suddenly, a deep husky, roaring voice was heard in the room. With two among the four escorts who stood behind him. He placed back his master card key that he had used earlier to open, back into the pocket on the right side of his trouser. With that gold card, it had access to all the organization's doors.
