Ethan's POV
After we got back from Abuja a month ago, I couldn't help but think more about bianca, through out the flight back to Lagos, I was thinking of her.
"I have to let go, she doesn't want me, she hates me, she loves someone else, I've to get rid of my feelings for her. I have to be strong, I can't let my feelings get in my way. I understand how much she hates the guy that she trusted but shattered her" I thought
When we got back to work, I started ignoring her, it was hard for me and it made me to be cold towards her, I know she doesn't deserve it but it's my only choice of forgetting her. For three weeks now, we've only being a boss and a assistant, I never talked to her about anything. I fought the urge not to make eye contact because I know once I look, I'll be lost in her eyes forever. It's so hard, frustrating and tiring that I can't even look into the eyes of the woman I love. After few days, I was in my office thinking of what I should do about the tiring work I gave bianca, she's doing it all alone and stressing herself, it hurts me to see her run helter skelter but my ego can't make me take back my order, I even noticed she isn't eating well, she doesn't go for lunch and she comes to work early too and leaves late. I doubt if she get enough sleep too, I can see the tiredness in her eyes, yet she didn't complain or relent from her work, she's indeed a special woman. I was in my office and I decided to check my staffs from the window when I saw a familiar man. Did I just say a familiar man? He's that guy that took Bianca from me! She touched my woman in front of me, I've never hated any one in my life but this man in my company is my biggest enemy, he's the reason why I can't win Bianca back. I fumed in anger as I saw him go towards Bianca's office, my head was on fire, i was very angry, I tried to control myself from going savage but I couldn't, I paced my office in anger, my heart ached. "I gave bianca this hectic assignment so that she'll be too busy to spend time with him but this guy still has the effrontery to come to my company" I thought. I went out of my office in fury and I made my way to Bianca's office. The anger that blinded me didn't even let me think of knocking, I just opened the door and i saw them.
I saw them very close to each other, their faces inches away from each other and that douche bag trying to kiss my WOMAN! my eyes drifted to his hands on Bianca's waist and I lost it.
"What's going on here?" I asked. Bianca tried to get him to leave but the asshole doesn't want to leave, I talked to him rudely and threatened to get him locked up if he steps a toe in my company again. I saw the disappointed look Bianca shot at me when the guy left. Now I guess she hates me more, I shrugged out of her office and went to my office. My body shook and I stomped my fist on my desk. "I shouldn't have done that, when did I become a beast? I was never this aggressive! What's Bianca doing to me?" I thought
Later in the evening , she told me she can't come to work since it's just two days to the party. I couldn't look her in the eyes, I told her to leave and she turned and walked away, I watched her. "This is torture, pure torture!" I said as I rested my head on my desk.

The next day, she didn't come to work and I guess she's on her way to Abuja. The company felt to lifeless and boring, I wasn't happy, I called the product manager to bring the files I might need to show my father when I see him. The product manager came in and I stared at her, she's a talkative and a gossiper, I would have fired her but she's a competent worker and those are the people I need. Moreover she worked with my father for years and he never fired her so why should i?
She walked in with a sheepish smile and I scratched my head in frustration.
"I doubt if this woman knows that her smile is rather annoying" I said to myself."Morning Mr Wellington" she said with her teeth in view
"Morning Mrs Alamo..shode" I said finding it hard to pronounce her name.
