The Events of the day were one of the worst things that had ever happened to me and for it the first time ever I wished that I never really got to work today.

I had sent all the information Jayden needed to him through mail because according to him, he doesn't want to see my face.

I knew that I shouldn't be doing this but I wanted so much to speak to him.

I had never seen him this cold and in my three years of knowing Jayden, he had always been that sweet baby that I loved so much, I really wondered what made him change that quickly even without thinking about me. The loud banging on the door brought out my deep thoughts.

I raised my head to look at who had Disturbed my thoughts and when I saw who it was, I couldn't help but curse within me.

Heaven knew how much I hated this girl.

The familiar red lipstick and the short sexy gown she wore told me who it was, I didn't need to look at her face, I knew it was no other, just that ugly looking secretary Kim.

Kim had been Jayden's secretary since he Started working on this company and she had a very heavy crush on him, one that I would say could lead to death.

The girl had done literally everything in her power to make sure that Jayden noticed her, but never for once did he throw one glance at her.

It wasn't as if Jayden didn't know about her thing for a him, it was just the fact that he never liked her so he never really cared about it

"What's wrong with you, can't you see Mr CEO is waiting " Kim's heavy angry voice dragged me out of my thoughts.

It was at that moment I knew that something was amiss, Jayden had asked her to bring him his lunch instead of the both of us Eating together.

I groaned standing up from my seat and hitting the system.

The moment I did that, the door to Jayden's office opened and Kim walked in showing most of her cleavage.

I watched Kim drop the stuff she had at the table and when she was done, he made her sit beside him.

I tried to listen to whatever the both of them were saying but I couldn't get even a word.

I watched Kim every move and for a second I felt really disgusted, and for a moment I wondered why a woman would ever bring herself down to behave this cheaply. I watched them do their thing, I wasn't even interested in it one bit.

my phone vibrated my pocket and I didn't waste any time grabbing it out from the bag.

. I knew it could be someone important.

looking at the caller id, I wondered who it was because I didn't know who had my number.

I picked the call and the voice I heard made my body go weak.

"Hey sexy, hope you know it's Jeremy"

my whole body went calm as I thought of what to say, truth be told, I couldn't replace my voice the next moment, I was already going insane.

"Well I wanted to ask if we could hang out Tonight, you know grab some drinks and then get to know ourselves better,?"

I gulped nervously forcing the unknown stuff down my throat, I had never been this shocked my entire life the way I was feeling right now.

"I guess your quietness means yes, well I would send my driver to come pick you up by 8pm "I heard him say.

"Okay"

I didn't know how I managed to know those words, even the heavens could tell how nervous I was.

"Bye, have a great day," he said and the call ended.

The moment the call ended I felt like I had just been let out of a cage because the next moment I let out a sigh of relief.

I couldn't hide the blush I had on my face, the thought that I was gonna go out with my favorite tv character made me want to know how my life had turned out in just a couple of seconds.

I turned and the hard glare I got from someone made me come back to my right senses and for a moment, I wondered what had happened and how Jayden got into my office and was staring at me so hardly "Do you know how long I have been here? waiting for you to get off that call before I can say a word "

I could sense the jealousy he had in his voice and I almost smirked but remembering that he was behaving strangely, I kept a straight face.

"

sorry sir "

"Well just have these files sorted out before leaving today "he told me.

I watched him drop the files and I couldn't help but moan. in pain.

there was no way I could finish these files, it just can't happen.

"Get that done with before leaving the office"

I

I watched the man that I grew to call a friend treat me like a total stranger and for a moment I wondered what had gone wrong with him and why he was behaving this way.

*****

"A loud moan tore out of my mouth as I stood up from the chair.

my back was aching so much from bending down and trying to put things in place.

my phone had been vibrating from my bag and I knew it was no other than Lena, she would be so mad at me and I knew that.

I thought about what I was going to tell her, I just couldn't wait to tell her everything that has happened today at work. I knew I could do that, that's just going to give her more reason to hate him and I don't want that. I picked up my bag and with that I Walked out of the office.

Looking at my wristwatch, it was just 7pm. I knew that I could still get prepared for my date, there was nothing on this earth that was making me leave that date, it's never going to Happen.

The company was dead and calm and the only person around the security.

Jayden left two hours ago and that was when work for today ended, but because of what he did to me, I couldn't leave like the others, I had to stay behind and get those.

If I wasn't doing it for anything, then I am doing all of this for my kids.

I just can't bear to see them go through any difficulty.

"Miss, are you leaving now ?".

I raised up my head and I saw one of the security guards staring at me and for a moment I wondered why he asked.

"Yes please, is there any problem ?" I asked

"No, I just wanted to be sure, have a good night's rest "the man told me and I nodded my head.

I wondered why the security man asked me that question. This was literally the first time he was asking me that and it really felt kind of weird.

"Taxi"I yelled as I flagged down a cab the moment I got out of the gate of the company.

The cab stopped and gave him my house address.

***

"Mom, you took forever to come home "Beckley told me the moment I stepped into the house.

I couldn't help but feel guilty, these kids had been all alone and lonely.

I watched my three kids sitting in the living room and watching TV.

looking around I couldn't replace any trace of Lena anywhere..

"Where is your aunt ?" I asked, making sure I wasn't just seeing things.

The thought that my kids had been at home all alone since 2pm sent fear to my body.

"She's not yet back mom and we have been alone all this while, you know how scary this huh "Scarlet stated sadly and already sobbing.

I dropped my bags immediately and rushed towards her. The moment I got to where she was I hugged her tightly.

"Am sorry hon, I thought I would be early "I said, kissing her and soothing her.

The two boys didn't look like they care about what's going on and I wondered how come they were growing to become.

"Where's Uncle Jayden ?"

"Isn't he back yet "both of them asked at once.

I let out a deep breath not knowing what to say, there was no way I was going to tell them we were having problems, it's so going to be done there.

"His not yet back kids and so if you don't mind I would get you some dinner "

"Don't bother, I already ordered some "Beckley says, stopping me on my track and just as I thought I heard the doorbell ring.

I dropped scarlet and walked towards the door. She tried to see who it was and it was no other than my friend.

I immediately grabbed the door open and there she was grinning like a fool.

"Lena, "I scolded.

"Sorry best I had a date after work and you know what it was one of my colleagues. I had been dreaming so hard of just my first day at work and so I jumped at the opportunity " she stated smiling. "You little bitch "I cursed letting her Into the house.

****

Don't stay too long my love, remember you have kids at home "Lena told me as the driver opened the car for me and I got In.

The smiles she had on her face were so big.

I had told Lena that Jeremy asked for a date and you needed to see how she squealed so loudly, she even had me dress up after putting my kids to bed.

My heart was beating so fast as I thought about how the date would go.

I wore a wine curvy gown, though it didn't show my cleavage or expose my body but whoever saw me knew I was hot

I looked so good in it, but not I wasn't going to impress him.

The car pulled in front of a restaurant with the description "Jerry's bar".

I didn't need anyone to tell me that he owns this place too because I had seen it several times on tv, guess he had a lot. "Thank you "I said to the driver.

I could see the surprise he had on his face but he immediately covered It with a smile.

"You welcome, enjoy your date "he stated and drove off.

I didn't waste any more time walking into the bar.

I raised my head and I didn't have any difficulty in replaceing him, he was all alone

I guess he noticed my presence because he raised up his head and looked at me.

I could see the way he lustfully starred.

"You look so beautiful "he whispered as I got to where he was as he dragged out a seat.

"Thank you "I replied, giving him my sweetest smile.

The man just smiled just like he did in tv.

It seems like we were the only ones in the restaurant because no one was Here.

."I needed privacy"he stated as if he was reading my thoughts.

"That's nice "I replied and the waiter walked to us.

I could see the long list of food that they brought and drinks and wine..

The moment he did, I poured myself a little wine and spilled a bit.

I knew that he was watching my every move, I could tell.

"So do you mind telling me about yourself?, most escapally your mom "he stated...

the moment he said mim, I could feel myself go cold

I didn't want to think about that woman..

"I guess he noticed my mood so he stood and sat close to me.

"Am sorry if I said anything wrong"

"It's okay it's just that I never like talking about her, but that doesn't matter tho "

"You know, I left mom five years ago after a big misunderstanding, she single handedly trained me but she chose her husband over me and as for my dad I had never met him and please do not ask who my baby daddy was''I told him plainly. The man just nodded his head and smiled.

"Well you know a lot about me already, do you mind me saying it ?".

I smiled looking at him, there was literally no need, I knew he had a little and his parents that's all.

*****

"Thanks for the dinner date, I really had a good time "I told him as he dropped me off in front of my house. "You know, it's nothing baby"

"I would get going now "I replied when I noticed the stare, it was just so awkward.

"Least I forget "he said, dipping his hands into his pocket and bringing out a card.

"The glow company is having a welcome party for their daughter, hope you don't mind being my date.

I looked at the card, I already got one as a part of the company but then I couldn't risk this one, being on his side was going to make me popular.

"Its okay"

"Thank you and goodnight, the party is tomorrow at 7pm," he said and kissed my cheeks softly and with that he got into his car and drove off ...

I let out a heavy breath the moment he left, I knew this was just the beginning.
