Eden’s POV
“Hello, I am Andrew,” he said stretching his right hand towards me for a handshake.
“Hi. I am Eden, his assistant.”
“Of course I know who you are,”
“You do?”
“Yea he talks about you alot.”
“How come I have never met you”

“I have been out of the country for some years now, I got back not long.”
“Oh. I see”
In the midst of our chat I tried to act normal, but with all the effort he noticed I wasn’t okay.
“Are you okay?”
“Ye_yes, 7 stuttered
“Why did you ask?”
“I don’t know, but you don’t look okay.”
“I guess I just tired and need some rest,”
“Okay, I guess so, why not you go and get some rest I will take care of him after all Alexis is in her way here.”
We were still talking when Alexis walked in.
“Hi Andrew,”
“Hello Alexis,”
“Where’s he?”
“In the master bedroom,”
She walked straight to the bedroom.
“You can go home and
d rest now that she’s here,”
“Okay, thank you,”
*Eden”
I stopped at the sound of my name.
Dan
you think that whatever it is that you told him is doing more harm than good to him?”
Suddenly my phone began to ring, my eyes beamed when I realized who the caller was,I walked away without an answer to his question.

“Hello Sam.”
“Sorry for not calling you earlier.”
“It’s okay.”
“Hope he is fine?
“Yes he is fine, I told you he will be fine.”
“Have you spoken to him?”
“Uhmm. he was sleeping when I came and he is still sleeping. I’m on my way to my apartment,”
“Who did you leave him with then!”
“Andrew his friend and Alexis walked in before I left,”
“Plus I have a drink date in fifteen minutes.”
“Okay, be safe.
She hung up and it was just me and the quiet stress I walked on with my millions of thoughts.
I got into my apartment and lay ih couch, tears began to stream down my face as I stare at the roof above, I cried antil my entire face was drowning in tears.
The doorbell buzzed while I was in the heat of my pains.
I quickly wiped my tears and tried to look normal, I inhaled and exhaled deeply to help calm my nerves.
“Coming.” I said at the sound of the doorbell buzzed for the third time.
“Hey, hi, I forced smile to play on my

“You don’t look fine, are you okay?” He asked with so
Does he has to notice?
much concern.
“Huhh..I’m fine, is just a little stress that a little rest will cure,” I chuckled to convince.
“Let me change into something more simple,”
In my heart I was hoping a miracle will happen so we don’t go out.
“Okay but don’t you think we should reschedule this for another day? you seemed very tired,”
“Oh no I will be fine,”
“I will just change right away.”
I went in and change into a free jean and shirt
“Okay, thank you,” I had him say on call while I came out.

“Hey, sorry I just received an important call I have to go now,
“Oh, hope all is well,”
“Yes, just some few things I had to handle, sorry I have to reschedule.”
“No, it’s okay,”
“Make sure your get some rest, we will do this tomorrow, I think I have a better plan,”
“You do?”
“Yes I will take you shopping tomorrow to shop for what you will wear to the birthday.”
“Sounds like a good plan, but I already have what to wear to the birthday,” a grin played at the corner of my mouth.
He smirk playfully, “you will not reject my offer, let me sponsor the dress you wear to the birthday, and we can grab a few bottles of drink after that.”
I shook my head as he speaks with a sly smile on my face.
“I insist,” he said with a more serious tone.
“Okay, you won.”
“Now, that’s it, come here,” he opened his arms,
I walked into his arms, and place my head on his chest, he wrapped me into his arms and rubbed his palm on my back.
“Make sure that you rest well,” he whispered to me.
“I will, Thank you.”
He dipped a kiss in my head.
“See you tomorrow,
We chuckled and disengaged the hug.
“Bye.”
“Be safe.”
I shut the door behind him.
“Ahhh… “I groaned audibly with my back resting on the door.
I went into the bedroom and changed into my night rope, I throwed myself into the bed, with so many thoughts going through my mind.
I engrossed myself in thought in the dead of the night, until everything became darker and blank
“Ahh..“I whispered under my breath, reacting to the pains I feel in my head.
I most have slept with a loads of thought, I looked through the window and saw that the sky was bright already.
It’s seven am on a Friday morning, after seeing that I’m late,I canot make it to the penthouse, I decided to dress up fast and head straight to the office after all Alexis is there.

I went into the bathroom and took a quick bath, I dressed into something that is simple and official. I ordered a rude while i slid my legs into a low heel footwear
I went into the kitchen to make coffee while I wait for the ride. I packaged the coffee in a disposable coffee cup and head out, the ride was already waiting for me
Arrived the office at five minutes after eight am
I fought every thought that concerns Hunter that tried coming thy way, because the last thing I will need is to distracted from work because I have a lot in my desk.
“Good morning, hope your night went well?” Sam greeted with a smile on her face.
“My night went well, hope yours went well too?”
“Yes ma’am. I love your outht,
“Thank you,”
I went to my desk
I was engrossed in the work on my desk with my eyes locked on the screen of my computer and my fingers dancing on the keyboard, the rhythm of the key pad was all my ear could hear.
1 occasionally shook my head in the midst of the work to shove off all thoughts coming to distract my work.
Hello Sam.” I heard Hunter’s voice from a distance.
1 lift my head off the work I was engaged with to look at him.
“Hi sir, what can I do for you?” Sam replied.
He wasn’t looking at my direction.
Without looking at me he handed the file in his hand to Sam and went back into his office, it looks like he has been in his office since before I arrived.
“Hello,
