sex-me boss.

-Oli,” Maggie had shouted.

She turned and saw her two friends in her apartment. Maggie’s presence didn’t bother her at all, but from the evil look Betty was giving her, she knew she was in for a bitch of a time, and if it was anything to go by, she hadn’t achieved her goal of seducing Damon. She went to sit on her sofa, just waiting to take Betty’s hate.

-But it’s not that dress you wore yesterday, it’s very pretty and where did you spend the night? I’ve been at your flat since morning Oli, I’ve been worried.

-I’m sorry, Maggie, but things didn’t go as planned. The dress is a long story. The cocktail spilled on me and I had to change so I took too long.

-I can see the happiness in your eyes and the fact that you’re upset. Tell me what happened Oli, you met your mysterious stranger didn’t you? come on tell me it’s true.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

She didn’t know what to say, and Betty’s silence didn’t bode well. She didn’t know which way to lie so as not to be yelled at by her, since she didn’t know what had happened after she’d decided to go and clean her dress.

-I… I was…

-I’ve been looking all over for you, Olivia. You could have told me you had an emergency, when you disappeared, your boss, I’m talking about Damon, he also disappeared and didn’t come back until three or four hours later while you didn’t come back. I even thought I was imagining things, but when I was talking to him, I could understand that he’d had an emergency.

Olivia didn’t understand anything at all, Damon had disappeared a few minutes after her, the lights had changed to feshia red, that perfume in the bathroom, that sexy voice that had reminded her that she wanted to trap him, him touching her with passion and delicacy, her mysterious stranger she’d been trying so hard to find. She no longer understood anything, absolutely nothing. She felt a heavy gaze on her, and when she looked up, she saw that it was Maggie. Maybe she was thinking the same thing she was.

-I’d like you to introduce me to him so that, thanks to him, I’ll finally have Damon Dixon in my pocket.

Olivia didn’t know what to think. She was no longer interested in what Betty was saying, because now she had everything she needed to understand that Damon Dixon was in fact her mysterious stranger. She wanted to shout to Maggie that she’d been right all along, but didn’t say anything because of Betty.

-Who were you with then, Oli?

-Mr Dixon had an urgent call, a contract to sign, normally it was Martin who was supposed to take care of it, but since he didn’t want to disturb his staff and I work for Martin, he asked me to handle it, but he got home before me. He was a Filipino investor who wanted to know how the new intergalactic capsule project was progressing. This man has staked a lot of money on this project, and there’s no way he’d want to lose it. It took me hours to convince him, and before I left, as my dress was soiled from the cocktail party, Mr. Dixon found me a dress in a hurry.

She could see that Betty was the only one who drank in what she was telling them, because Maggie’s expression was one of “finish with this nonsense and tell me the truth later”. She pursed her lips, feeling proud of herself for having just killed any suspicion in Betty, but it was she who now had a tortured mind.

-And you, Betty, how did it go?

-This man wasn’t at all happy to see me and he didn’t miss a single opportunity to humiliate me, but that’s okay because I’m a resilient and patient girl when something really matters to me, so you don’t have to worry about me and…

She stopped dead in her tracks when she saw what Olivia was holding in her hand, a glittering midnight-blue jewel box. No, she couldn’t believe it. Olivia immediately regretted the fact that she’d forgotten to put it in her clutch before entering, certainly because she wanted to free Damon’s driver.

-Don’t tell me that Filipino investor proposed to you Oli, I’m happy for you but I know that all Asian businessmen are very old and few are under fifty.

“Thanks for the insinuation Betty” Olivia had thought, but since it wasn’t true she didn’t need to play the sarcasm game.
