James pov:

He slapped me. He fucking slapped me. How dare he?

"Fuck you" he said with so much anger.

I fisted my hands and went to hit him but stopped. I don't know why but I stopped.

He stood his ground not even flinching and when I look into his eyes I stopped. Tears were already falling down from his eyes and when I looked into them they held so much sadness. He looked so vulnerable.

He shook his head and wiped his tears. He turned and left the house. I dropped my hand and just stood there. After few minutes of standing there I go back to my room and got showered. Yesterday my father called me and told me from today onwards I have to go to the company with him. That old man. After the shower I got dressed in a business suit and left the house. I drove my car to the company and when I arrived there everyone was waiting for me including my father. He properly introduced me to everyone and told me about his business. Liam was with me the whole time and after the introduction he led me to my new office where I am going to work.

He opened the door for my office and it was really beautiful.

"This is your new office James. I hope you like It." he said and turned towards the door. The door opened and a beautiful woman came inside. God she is so hot. But I think she is older than me around 25 or something.

"James, this is Sara and she is my new Secretary. She is going to teach you about our business and tells you what you should do. If you have any doubt or want to ask something you can ask her if I am not around." He said and I internally smirked.

"Hello, it's nice to meet you officially Mr. James." She said extending her hands towards me.

I shook her hand and winked. "The pleasure is all mine." I said.

She raised her eyebrow and let go of my hand. I saw Liam rolling his eyes and I ignored him.

"You can take some rest. I have an important meeting to attend. Once I finished I will let you know what you should do." he said and left the room with Sara.

"Dude, seriously. She is older than you." Liam said.

"What? She is hot." I defended myself.

"Right." he said rolling his eyes.

I was looking around the office when he started to spoke again.

"So, How was things between you and Nick?" he asked.

I turned to face him and shrugged. "We pretty much hate each other, that for sure." I said. He nodded but didn't say anything.

"Oh, yeah, how did I end up home last night? I don't remember anything after we left the club." I said. He stiffened for a second but quickly covered it with a shrug.

"I took you home last night. You don't have the keys with you so I rang the door bell and Nick opened the door. I put you into your room and left." He said but I feel like he was hiding something. I shrugged it off and took a seat in my chair. This is going to be a boring day. I thought about Nick and wondered maybe I should apologize to him but decided against it. he already hates me then why should I bother.

Nick's pov:

I left that place and ran as fast I could. I am not going to call that hell my home. I reached the bus stop and once the bus arrived I took seat and waited for my stop to arrive. After 5 minutes I reached the stop and I climbed out.

I walked towards the restaurant which is few meters away from the bus stop and opened the door.

"Hey, Nick Good morning, why did you come this early? Aren't you supposed to come in the evening?" Garret asked.

Garret is the owner of this Restaurant and he is 25 years old. He runs this restaurant by himself with his co worker Allison and he is still single. He told me opening a restaurant was his dream and he loves cooking.

"Morning Garret, yes I am but I woke up so early today so I decided to stop here before going to my classes." I said and gave him a small smile.

"Ohh, that's so nice of you. Do you want me to make some coffee for you?" he asked.

"No, it's okay. I already ate my breakfast." I said.

"Okay. Oh, I forgot here." he said and handed me a bag.

"This is your uniform and the key to your locker. You can see the door right?" he said pointing to the door beside the cooking area.

I nodded and he continued.

"That is the room for staff members. You can put your things in that room and you can store your personal stuff in your locker." He said.

"Thank you." I said and he smiled.

"No problem kid." He said.

I get into the room and opened my locker which has the same number as my key had and put the uniforms in it. I closed the locker and mentally noted myself to store some extra clothes here for emergency purpose.

I returned to the reception area and saw Allison instead of Garret.

"Hey, Allison" I called.

She looked up at me and a smile took place in her face.

"Hey, Nick Good morning. What are you doing here so early?" she asked.

"I woke up early today so I just want to stop by here." I said.

"Where is Garret?" I asked.

"He is in the kitchen. Are you leaving?" she asked.

"Yeah, tell him I will be here around 5." I said and she nodded.

"I will. Have a nice day." She said and I told the same.

Allison was older than both of us by one or two. They are friends from college and when Garret opened this new restaurant Allison told Garret that she wanted to work with him.

After I said my good bye I left the shop and started to walk. I looked at my watch and I still have some extra time left before my class starts. So, I decided to walk to my school instead of taking bus. It's not that much away from here anyway.

After like 15 minutes I reached my college and immediately spotted my friends who are waiting by my locker.

"Nick, why are you late? Is something happened?" Mark asked.

"Nah, I just stopped by the restaurant where I am going to start working from today." I said.

"That new restaurant opened a few weeks ago?" Alex asked and I nodded.

"Wait, why did you need a job and why didn't you tell me before?" Mark asked.

I sighed and said. "I applied for this job before the marriage. I just wanted to help Cassie with the bills that time but now I am glad I got this job. So, I can spend less time in that house." I said.

They looked at me with pity eyes and I sighed.

"Can we go to our class?" I asked. They nodded and we started to walk towards our class.
