Leave
I got out of my car, walked towards the waste bin, and threw in my clothes, It was to close this page in my life.
From here on, am done being an office whore.
I would now act like a lady inside and out, and show that bastard Alex how ladylike I am.
I walked into my office to find Caroline typing something on my computer.
Miss Swan, I'm just replying to your emails, she said.
" Alright, are any of them important? I asked as I put down my handbag.
"Um no, Just a few portfolios from potential customers," She said.
" Okay, well, print them for me; I would go through them all today, I instructed her.
Yes, Miss Swan, You have a meeting in 5 minutes with Mr. Pierce; Mr. Carlos called to book an appointment for lunch today; should I confirm it? she asked
" Ha! Cancel my meeting with Mr Pierce, and if he tries to reschedule, tell him I'm fully booked.
As for Mr. Carlos, please let him know I am not interested in our relationship anymore," I muttered while gathering my files.
Y..y.. you want me to cancel your meeting with Mr Pierce? She said, stuttering, looking scared.
I was surprised, The only person I ever saw her scared of was me.
I watch her squarely, Did she just question me?
Caro..line!!!! Did I stutter when I speak? I asked her tauntingly.
" No, Miss Swan, but - " She was trying to speak, but I cut her off with my hand.
There is no but, Just follow my instructions. If anyone asks, just say I am busy. No one can disturb me.
Send me the portfolio, I said dismissively.
She just stared at me a little before exiting the room.
Thank God! She was so annoying.
For the last three hours, I have been viewing the potential client marketing files to see which ideas are good.
I was hungry and tired of reading but I had 4 more to go before I was done.
Suddenly, my phone began to ring loudly, making me jump.
" Miss Swan, how can I help you? I said.
" Lynn "A familiar male voice spoke through the phone.
" Mr Carlos, Is that you?
" How are you? I said in false happiness.
Are you sure you don't mean, Fuck you? You just like that you blew me off" he said in disgust.
" No, I do mean it, but Carlos, you are taken; it doesn't make sense to continue cheating on your fiancee; plus, I have a daughter to take care of; you know that, right? I explained.
You just used me, Lynn; I hated you he screamed, and with that, he hung up.
I just stared at the phone.
He was being such a girl, I never acted like that when a guy no longer wanted me to fuck him.
But wait..... no guy has never wanted me to fuck him! I wasn't being cocky, But I was great in bed so men adore me and my skills.
Yes, Carlos was good in bed but he started to catch feelings, telling me he loved me and wanted to become serious with me.
He even wanted to leave his fiancee, Who does that? I had to get rid of him.
Didn't he understand the hashtag for this year? # DON'T WASTE THIS TIME 2024.
Not even 2 minutes, My door flew open Mr. Pierce looking quite pissed marched in.
I just stared at him unaffected.
You canceled our Fucking meeting " he screamed quite loudly making me jump, I didn't bother to look at him because he kept talking,
We have important things to discuss! So don't you fucking cancel it again, He said strictly.
I just rolled my eyes irritatedly like he was not in my office.
Get the fuckout of my office!
Mr Pierce, thanks for gracing my office with your presence, but I'm very busy, so please leave, I said with an extra amount of politeness.
Miss Swan, I'm not leaving.
This meeting was about the business trip you and I will be making tomorrow to Australia for one week.
So you can take the rest of the day off to pack, he said.
What???
"Go on a business trip! Hell no! I have Lydia to take care of.
um, sir, I can't. I mumbled."
What do you mean you can't? Cancel all your appointments for the day that's all. he explained as if I was dumped.
" Sir, I mean, I can't go on the business trip; I have personal stuff to take care of," I tried to be vague. I don't like telling people about Lydia unless they find out for themselves.
"Listen, I think your prostitution can wait for a week; plus, they are lots of clubs in Australia, so you can speak to them, and I am sure they would love to meet an American porn star," he said with ease.
Those words cut through my soul like a million knives stabbing into me; he didn't have to say that I had already quit the club business; of course, he didn't know that, but still, his words hurt like hell.
" Fuck you, Mr. Pierce, Because you didn't seem to mind when I was on your bed fingering my wet pussy for you, You Look pretty hard to hush your cunt".
And with those words I left my office, walking to Mr Lockwood's office, leaving him staring at me in awkwardness.
I flung the door open without a warning, and he was with a client; by the look on my face, he must have realized I was beyond pissed.
He told the client to give us a few minutes, As soon as the client left the room.
" Lynn are you okay?" he asked.
" Am I okay? Do I look fucking okay?
Did you approve of that Australia Trip? I asked clenching my teeth.
" Well, yes, I had to; Australia is our next big hit to uplift the business, he said.
Explaining excitedly while I sat down watching him in open disgust.
" Big hit." Let me tell you what's the big hit, my daughter, Who I refused to leave home with my sister to take care of while I went to Australia for your business," I said, screaming at his face.
" Oh, Lydia! I forgot, he said.
Covering his eyes with his hands, just then, his office door flew open, and Mr Pierce walked in.
" Mr Lockwood, if she doesn't come then I'm withdrawing my investment, Mr cockyarrogant asshole said.
" Well, by all means, withdraw, you dumb ass," I commented loudly.
" No, no! Don't withdraw.
She would go I can assure you! Mr Lockwood said quickly and with that, Mr Pierce left with a smirk on his face.
That asshole! That asshole!
" Lockwood I can't leave her, I clearly stated.
" You are not going alone!
I would book flights for your sister and daughter too, So that she can take care of her when you are in the meetings, he said.
Like it was the brightest idea in the world.
", Lockwood! I swear if this backfired, I would kill you, I muttered under my breath but he heard it.
plus, I would be there, so don't worry, he assured me, smiling.
Great!
I was going to Australia.
