Finding An Anchor

*5

DENO POV.

I got off the elevator at McConnell's law firm heading towards the conference room I'm 10 minutes early in hope of having a word alone with jeneève before our deposition, I really need to fix things with her, I really do miss her and would like to see she her on a daily basis like old times, she's a phenomenal woman despite the fact that I came from money she never tried to use that as away to get close to me.
As I approach the transparent glass door of the conference room there sat Daniel Nebula and his client Jackie crossborn who is suiting my client supermarket for gender discrimination in the workplace.
I swang the door open with a little bit more force than I'd like, yes I'm pissed beyond piss actually this was our thing sex the night before we would fight like in hopes of not going to court and me winning.
Well the odd or 0 on everything I don't care I like loosing to her a little more than id like to admit even telling myself I let her win but the truth is I don't really care about the case I care about the times I've cross path with her.
She was so mean and I love the way how I make her smile.
" Mr. Hall",  the sound of my name brought me back to the real world I masked my emotions immediately putting back on my sophisticated face.

"Where is Ms. McConnell she is the one I'm to meet with.

" Sorry to disappoint but she has a very important meeting at the moment". More important than me I felt a fit broken she's really upset eh I've got to make it upto her well I'm gonna crush this fool and fine my girl.

" Well let's get started then.30 minutes into the meeting I decided to take there offer I need to go see Jen. " I'll get Mr. Bromwich to sign and the ill transfer back the document to you". Daniel got up an shake my hands and I left for jeneève office. I saw her assistant Clare sitting at her desk I walked up to her an ask,

" is jeneève in I'd like to have a word ".

"She's in a meeting you'll have to wait or reschedule if you don't mind" I don't think she likes me everytime I come here this is the attitude she gives me.

"I'll wait I said with a straight face. " ok you can have a seat right there" She pointed to the leather chairs on the left I walked over and took a seat before removing my phone from my pocket maybe I can do something to pass the time. I was there for a whole hour and a half before I saw Alex Williams and his father Henry walking out her office. The younger Williams was smiling brightly biting his lips with a musing look on his face, his eyes caught mine and expression change in a second like I had imagined it. What's up with this prick his father was the first to acknowledge me maybe because he and my father was good friends, my father once told me that he was my Godfather. he was also the lawyer who helped me get my trust fund. " Deno it's been ages since I've last seen you how are you doing my boy". He extends his hands for me to shake I took his hands in mines in a manly gesture, while dick face Jr mugged me.

" Mr. Williams I'm good it's good to see you I sent you a birthday gift earlier this month.

" Yes thank you very much we should have lunch sometimes".

" Let's get going Dad I have a meeting at 1."

" Have some respect Alex he's my godson and your God-brother if your busy you should leave" that right Jr sucked it I mentally smiled I can feel the anger coming off him so I interjected,

" it's ok I have a meeting with Ms. McConnell anyways I'll have my Secretary set up our lunch"

"Ok, Deno take care ". They walked away while I went to check if Jen was available. As I approach the assistants desk she said

" Go on right in". I didn't answer I just entered. She was standing with her back turned to me, her hair was in a bun, her arms folded behind her back and she was bere footed. This woman is driving me crazy I just stood there watching her she was so beautiful I want to give her my children. "Jen" I finally spoke but she didn't turn around I walked over to her and put my hands around her waist I felt her tends as I rest my neck in the crock of her neck inhaling her sweet vanilla lavender scent. She released her self a little in my arms.

" I'm sorry babe". She still didn't response I know she's still upset but I won't let her go until she say so.

" let me take you to lunch or something I just want to be next to you".

" I'm not hungry she said". I started sucking on her neck running my tongue over the bone in her neck back I heard her moan and felt my self instantly affected. I started running my hands up her brown pencil skirt that was a little loose on her I don't know why she didn't wear tight clothing to the office. The door to the office swang open when I was brought out of my trance.

"Wtf" there stood Alex he looked so angry Clare stood next to his saying " I'm sorry Jen I couldn't stop him. From the look on her face I knew that's a lie she wanted him to come in but Why?

" It's fine Clare," she said as she walks to her desk fixing him clothes

"How may I help you, Alex". He hissed his teeth before answer " I left a file on your desk "

"Ok"

She stated, she seem calm but I can tell that his presents are bothering her. "Which is it? she started looking through the file that laid there on her desk. As I watched her I notice she was nervous. Why the fuck would she be he's just a client. " here you go" she handed him the file he glared at her before grabbing it forcefully and leaving. " WTF was that Jen," I ask calmly even though I was so upset but I didn't want her to get mad at me.

" We are planning to merge my law firm with their business. I would represent all their business clients, he asked today if I was in a relationship with anyone and I said no. Seeing me and you like that he must think I lied and is probably trying to infiltrate there organization". she sounded so sad and it broke my heart to know that I might have just messed up the biggest business decision she ever made. I really didn't know what to say I told her sorry so many times, sorry won't cut it now so I should leave I saw her crying and in all the 11 years I've known her it's the first time I've ever seen her cry. I'm about to cry.

" I should go", I said as I practically ran out her office. I'm such a fuck up maybe I really should stay away from her.
