A Love Like This

Chapter XIV

Three Days Later
Back Home in Chicago

As much as I wanted to stay in Punta Cana it was time to get back to business. After dropping Vixen off at home I was on my way to Jennings Enterprise. When I said I was going to make sure Kaiden and his new bitch didn't fuck with Vixen I meant that shit. The last thing she needed was some random hoe fucking with her and a nigga with no balls allowing the shit.

Pulling up to the building I exited my car giving valet my keys I instructed him to leave it running being that this visit was going to be a quick one. Adjusting the Christian Dior blazer I stepped into the lavish lobby of the office building. My eyes scanned my surroundings briefly before they landed on the receptionist. Walking over to her I plastered a smile along my lips.

"Good morning beautiful, could you tell me what floor is Kaiden Jennings office ?" I asked in a charming tone

The fair skin woman looked up at me. Her cheeks flushed a rose color. I take it that she was rarely complimented. If I needed to butter her up to fulfill my mission then so be it.

"I'm sorry sir. Mr. Jennings isn't available at the moment he's on a conference call" She explained in a mousey tone

"I'm not just anyone.." looking down at the gold name plate I brought my eyes up to her blue ones "Morgan. I'm the new lawyer for the company. It's protocol that I introduce myself"

"I apologize. I wasn't aware that a new lawyer was coming in. I'll call his office now. It's on the thirtieth floor" Morgan said picking up the phone "Hi Nadia, I have a Mr.."

"Baptise" I whispered to her

"I have a Mr. Baptise coming up. He's the new lawyer for the company. Thank you" Hanging up the phone she offered me a smile "you're all set Mr. Baptise. The elevators are to the left"

"Thank you beautiful. I'll be seeing you around" I said giving her a wink

Walking away from the front desk I ushered myself over to the elevator. Glancing around I noticed the building was riddled with cameras. Luckily for me I wasn't on a killing streak with the nigga but if things get carried away I'm positive I could have someone on Lalo's team hack into the security footage. The elevator dinging caught my attention. As the doors opened I stepped on the lift, hitting the thirty button I rested my back against the wall of the elevator.

Vixen was unaware to me pulling up on Kaiden. She thought I was running some errands with Lalo for his show that was tomorrow. Fucked up as it may be lying to her right at the start, I kept my fingers crossed that she wouldn't find out. In the event she did, I wasn't going to lie about it. But with her blocking Kaiden and the unknown number being blocked I wasn't too worry about it.

The elevator came to a stop on the thirtieth floor, as the doors opened I stepped out. Walking up the hallway I was greeted by a petite woman. She looked like she was in her mid forties maybe early fifties.

"Mr. Baptise ?" She asked with a smile

"Yes ma'am that's me. Is Mr. Jennings available now ?" I asked as my fingers tapped along the glass of her desk

"Yes he is. Just go right in" She replied using her pen to point towards a door

Muttering a thank you I walked towards the door. Placing my ear to it I could hear that he was on the phone with someone. Slowly opening the door I entered it closing it quietly behind me. Kaiden had his back to me and he was so engrossed in the conversation on the phone that he didn't even notice me coming in. Chuckling to myself lowly I walked over to his desk. Pressing the hook down I watched as he removed the phone from his ear.
