I Won't Fall For You | ✔️

▪︎\\Chapter Thirty Six

MORDECHAI LENETTI

I smirked to myself as I dropped another stack of files on Vanessa's desk. She will be back at work on Monday and I hope she knows that it's going to be one hell of a week for her. After leaving her office I went back to mine and was suprised to see my father waiting for me. We barely spoke after the meeting back in Paris. I really wasn't in the mood to talk about marriage right now.

"Dad, what are you doing here?", I asked but he didn't even glance at me. He kept staring out of space before he got up and gave me his attention. Seeing how serious he was, whatever he had to say can't be good. I sighed in my mind as I waited for him to speak.

"This personal assistant of yours...Vanessa is it, what's going on between you two?", was his next words which had me in an unresponsive state. What was he talking about?.

"What do you mean?", I asked him with a raised eyebrow.

"Don't play dumb with me Mordechai!. Tell me what's going on?. Is it because of her you don't want to get married. I have some very dear friends who have beautiful daughters who-

"-Dad stop. There's nothing going on between Vanessa and I. She's just my assistant and the reason why I don't want marriage is because-

"-Because of what?. You want to marry someone you love?. When was love ever apart of it, success comes first then love and feelings. When I married your mom both of us was more invested in the business than our own marriage. Overtime we got to love each other!. Why can't you do the same?", he stated as his anger level started to rise.

"Dad enough of this, I'm not ready to settle down with anyone", I said before taking a seat as I watched his irritated face. I had no intentions of a shotgun marriage and worse to someone I don't even have the slightest clue about.

"Maybe I should fire your assistant then, it seems like she got you so attached. You can't tell me anything Mordechai I know there's something going on. Just let me know if you want me to fire her".

I stared at my dad in disbelief. Has it really gotten to this?. I knew he was going to force me into marriage sooner or later but I guess I wasn't prepared for it afterall.

"Vanessa has nothing to do with this and I don't think you have the right to fire her because you weren't the one who hired her", I told him with a serious face.

He hummed for a few seconds before glaring at me. I knew better than to challenge him but I've had enough. He took his hands from his pockets before walking out and slamming the door. I could never read my father but I knew he had something planned.

I took out my phone and checked my messages. I half smiled when I saw Vanessa's and I conversation from yesterday. She must have been wondering why I texted her when I called her a few hours before. Well, I had no one to run my errands and Tifanny has become intolerable so I didn't bother talking to her.

There was a knock on the door before Tifanny poked her head through. Speaking of the devil - here she was. She came in and locked the door before smirking at me. I can't tell the last time we've had sex. It's like I can't stand her anymore.

"I don't like this Chai, you've been ignoring me alot. Or did you forget that we are sex partners?", was her first words as she sat on the table and opened her legs. Don't get me wrong, Tifanny was very attractive and a seductress at that but sometimes the simplest thing someone can do to annoy you can turn your mind from them.

"What is it?", I asked but she only smiled before climbing on top of me.

"You haven't been inside me for more than a month now and it's starting to piss me off", she said before groaning in my ear.
