Cailey's POV

''Why didn't you tell me that you were living in Russell's house?''

I was on my way out of the house when I saw Mindy.

I halted, she looked angry. I immediately walked to her and drag her away from Russell's house. My hands are shaking, Fuck. I'm done! How did she find out that I was here?

''I knew it! This was the reason why you would't let me come in your apartment!! How could you lie to me?!'' she shrieked wagging my shoulder.

''This!'' I shrieked back. ''This was also the reason I couldn't tell you. I know that you would act like this so I decided to hide it for the mean time. But trust me, I was going to tell you about it when I ca finally move out!'' I explained to her.

''I can't believe it! Why didn't you tell me? You could have just said it to me! I can let you stay at my apartment like we did!'' She said and let go of me.

''I'm sorry Mindy but I can explain it, So please? Just listen to me, will you? I'll tell you all about it when we're off from work, deal?'' She sighed, and pressed her lips.

''What else can I do? Just make sure you won't skip any details. I want it whole!'' she said, frowning. ''Now let's go. We can't be late!'' she said, still frowning.

I breathed a sigh of relief.

This week was so stressful. I can't believe that all of this was happening. It feels like it was just yesterday, yet so much happened. I leaned on my swivel chair and rubbed my temple, trying to ease my headache. I can even notice how many times Mindy peeked at me from her post, so it added to my already stressed mind.

''Ms.Soren, Mr. Benaflor is asking you to his office'' Said Mr. Ayden's secretary when she reached my desk.

I wanted to ask her of why was Mr. Ayden calling for me but before I could even ask, she left. I heaved and got up. Guess I'll just have to go in his office to know. I looked at my colleagues, they seem to hear what the secretary said. They gave me the 'why' look. I have no idea either.

Mindy also looked at me with her scrutinizing eyes. I shrugged.

I don't remember submitting any documents to him as of now. Normally, he would ask someone to go in his office when he have some questions regarding on any papers. So...

I walked towards his office, straightening my office outfit. I knocked on his door before I heard a go and entered. I roamed my eyes, looking for him, then there, I saw him.

He was standing near his office window, his hands on his pockets, staring at the city lights. It was already six in the evening, staring at it somehow eases anyone's days. I can't help but to notice his back, it was broad and well-formed. Just looking at his back, anyone could tell that he has this strong authority.

And somehow, my so called husband popped on my mind. They seem to have a lot of similarities. Though, I can say that Ayden has somehow a different attitude than Russell.

Wait, why am I even talking about him? And even comparing him to Mr. Ayden? Ugh!

Focus Cailey!

''What can I do for you sir?'' I asked as I approached him.

He didn't say anything. He kept staring outside his window. As if he was on a depth of thinking. I tried to clear my throat, thinking that he must have not noticed me. ''What do you think about life, Ms. Soren?''

I stopped with his question and it got me thinking. ''Do you want my opinion, Sir?'' I asked.

He just nodded and looked at me, as if waiting for my response.
