Liv's POV:

I seemed distracted by him all day. Why does he have to be too hot? After working hour, I left and went to pharmacy to take my medicines which I won't bother to purchase. There was a pregnancy test too. Why would I need that? And all that scenario flashed through my mind. I shrugged. Could it be that I am pregnant? I only took the test tube, paid, and left the pharmacy. I came out of pharmacy and someone looking at me through the corner of the street. Stalker? I ignored it and went home. Jasper wasn't home. I sighed.

I didn't have to work overtime because of my promotion but I love to work at the Library. So, I called and told them that I can only work on weekends and the manager accepted. I was happy though. I could make time on Fridays and Saturdays.

I went home and went to my room. I fell on the bed letting out a groaning growl. I looked at the bag I brought from the pharmacy and took out the test strip. I had to check it. I went to check on it and I saw two red lines on the strip. Though, I didn't know what it meant so I opened the internet to check.

My mouth hung open when I acknowledge that it was positive response. Means I was pregnant. God what I am going to do now? God, what if Jasper find out? Why would he? What am I thinking? What will happen to me? Tears flowed my eyes and I rammed my face in the pillow to let out silent sobs. I didn't know when I fell asleep. My eyes shot open when I heard my phone ringing. It was Allen. My manager. The new manager actually. I picked up the call and....

"Ma'am, you need to come quickly. You are late 15 minutes and Mr. CEO is going crazy." His voice came out scared.

"Oh, my fucking hell. I am on my way." I stood up and took my clothes up and down in my arms and ran to my neighbor's house. I knocked hard and quick.

"What is it?" It was from Bill. My neighbor of course.

"Bill, I need your car keys now. I am so fucking late from work." I took the keys which he was holding in his hand.

"And that too." I took the toast he was holding in mouth and placed it in mine. He was about to say something but I didn't let him.

"Thanks, Bill, We will have drinks. I promise." I ran and unlock the car. I speedily ran the car to office. It took me 6 minutes to reach there, whereas I reach there in 18 to 19 minutes. I ran to elevator and start putting on my clothes. I slid down the skirt on my legs. and pulled off the shirt I was wearing. It was Gerard's. I put on the shirt and the elevator door opened which I didn't realize. The whole office was staring at me wide open when I put on the shirt.

"What? Have you never been this late?" I asked shook my head. And all I get was 'No'.

"Miss Argent". I heard Allen.

"Mr. CEO wants to see you. He is in your office." Allen walked towards me. I handed him my shirt.

"You changed here?" He asked.

"Yeah. In the elevator. and yeah. Trash the tape. Now." I said and hurried to my office. I opened the door and my office was a mess.

"What happened?" I asked looking at the files scattered across the room on floor.

"I couldn't find the record from last year." He was sitting in my chair and feet on the table. Just like I imagined he would.

"You could've asked me." I was boiling with anger. Why the fuck he needs to mess up my office.

"You weren't here. What was I supposed to do?" He closed his eyes leaning back in chair. He was playing around with me? This motherfucker.

"You were supposed to call me." I walked up to him and took out the phone from his pocket. He looked at me shocked while I put my number in his phone.
