It had been a whole week since Claire left Theo alone in the hotel room he booked while he was drunk. He realized during this time that he messed up his plan when he first met her, she was not supposed to feel that emotion of being loved when he kept talking to her. At the same time, he disliked the fact that she hated it.
Theo knew he was attracted to Claire, and it must have been lust at first, yet he never knew it would grow into something more. He met her through a close friend of his from college, since Claire and Theo had been classmates who never associated with each other.
He urged her to forgive him, but who is at fault?
Claire or Theo?
He stared at her photo saved for her phone number on his contact list. No doubt, she was one of the most beautiful women he had ever been nearby. She makes him feel complete on the inside when she is here, yet at the same time she makes him feel as if he was never important to her.
Theo was arguing with himself. He wanted her and he did not want her too.
All because of what? Theo does not know the reason, but he knows that there is always a pull from him to Claire.
The front door to Theo's office was ajar and he flinched when he heard a loud knock, "May I come in, sir?"
"Yes, you may come in, Lucas." said Theo.
Lucas, Theo's assistant for five years, finally brought his presence into his office.
"How did you know it was me?" he chuckled.
"You're the only one who knocks on my door as if they're slamming it." Theo smiled.
Lucas noted this and began giving Theo a manila envelope he received from the mailing office on the lowest level of the StarThrill Entertainment Company.
"What is the matter this time?" Theo grumbled as he picked up the envelope.
"The address is tracked from the Co-producer of The Stolen Locket, a film produced by Dean Williams coming 20XX." Lucas stated.
He glanced at Lucas and then opened the envelope and as the white paper slid out, his phone rang immediately, Claire's caller ID shown.
He quickly grabbed his phone and pressed the green button to pick up her call, "Claire?" he sounded out of breath.
"Theo, I'm sorry that the situation has become like this..." she spoke quickly.
He finally looked at the paper on his desk which stated:
Resignation of Claire Young from StarThrill Entertainment:
He hung up on her.
