A Secretary's Vendetta To Be or Not to Be
Michael POV:Cal was unusually late, I've been waiting for more than 10 minutes, I knew we are yet to settle our previous spat but nonetheless, it was unlike him to come late when I needed him.I allowed my eyes to drift to the Wooden stools butting up against a brass foot rail at a high counter, crowded tables and booths, patrons (laughing with friends, hitting on strangers, watching a TV affixed to the wall or staring into their drinks), a bartender with rolled-up sleeves freshening drinks and filling orders being delivered by wait staff, stacks of highball glasses in green-gray dishwasher racks, a sink with a sprayer, bags of ice in a tray or sink, draining trays, beer kegs being switched out, straws and stirrers, plastic skewers and straws, blenders whirring with colorful icy concoctions, several multi-button soda dispensers, a wall of alcohol bottles, upside-down stem glasses in racks above the bartender’s head, plastic tubs of lime and lemon wedges, fridges with juices, milk and
A Secretary's Vendetta Spotted
Aurora POV:I went to work Monday morning with uncertain feelings. I dreaded and anticipated seeing Mr. Angelo again, both at once. I was in my head but couldn't help but notice the glare that was thrown at me. I kept staring scared the pregnancy was showing in my stomach already, I knew that was stupid but was concerned what the strange looks was for. It was almost like everyone of them knew I did something bad. But technically, it was bad but I'm an adult it's none of their business. I was intentional about my feeling but took nothing away from the anxiety I felt about the stare. It got even worse, Mr. Jordan frowned at me, he didn't even say nothing. He just set on the new herd record and left. I couldn't even dare ask him about the recent developments and my query of the party and why he lied to me. I was rather someone would talk to me about the sombre cloud, no one did.Appollos did. He grinned at me as he paused beside ny desk. “I hear you were out at a guy's named micheal pla
A Secretary's Vendetta I'm Sorry
Aurora POV:I kept staring at my phone. I had halfway hoped that i might hear from Michael during the day. After all, we are now lovers. But he didn’t call. It was a disappointment, and my confidence took a nosedive. All my hopes began to drown in doubt. I went through her normal routine, answering the phone and taking messages, and typing letters for Mr. Jordan, whom till now has yet to speak to me. Itwas a normal day. Nothing out of the ordinary. I could have cried from disappointment. But that would be low, even for me. Once, I almost picked up the phone and called his office. But that would never do. I couldn’t look as if i was chasing him. Perhaps he just needed breathing space, in order to get used to the changed relationship between us. Surely, it was just that. I hoped.Towards the end of the day I was feeling dismissal, I wondered maybe he had called between the few times I was outside to do one thing or the other, but my phone showed no missed call notifications. Despite b
A Secretary's Vendetta What Happened After That Night?
Aurora POV:"Till tommorrow then" he said "Sir, one more thing" "What Aurora" "I tried to follow up on my case" I cleared throat "But I discovered the police doesn't have anything about the case, it was said they were shut out and no one was significantly arrested. I have never for once doubted you, but I'd just wished to know what happened"The smile dissapeared from his face and his furrowed back."This is Michael speaking isn't, that asshole put you up to this didn't he""No sir, it isn't ""Anyone can figure it is. After a meeting with him, you start questioning my honesty and integrity. It's simple maths" "Don't let us make it about him, it's about I genuinely curious about what happened. Why does the not police have anything on it. which meant nobody was caught. It's either you have a reasonable explanation or you've been lying to me""That Goddam Michael, that is why I don't want you lurking around him. He'd filled up your head with lies, anything to turn you against me"
A Secretary's Vendetta Lost Hope
Aurora POV:I drove home quietly dejected and lost in thought, my mom was watching her movies when I got in. "Are you fine" she asked "you look worn" "Did I have a visitor" I couldn't help but ask."No dear ... nobody came looking for you."My face fell. I hated myself for pathetically hoping he came to see me physically.She saw my dissapointed look."Were you expecting either of Libby or mabel" "None of them""Then whom" she asked suspicious "Never mind mom, it's nothing""Ok darling""I presume you are not going to the gym today.. you look like you had a quite the day at the office"The gym! I had forgotten about it entirely which was definitely unlike me, but considering what was bugging my mind it was expected. Having a rift with Appollos has put my off it momentarily, I have decided to skip it for a while to avoid akward situations till we settled the unspoken rift, now that we have. I was cool to go again.... but not today I am not in the right mind. "Yes mom""I've skipp
A Secretary's Vendetta Progress Made..........
Michael POV: As I stepped out of my car and made my way towards the office, I couldn't help but feel a mix of excitement and apprehension. It had been five days since I last set foot in the office, and I was eager to dive back into my work.The past few days had been devoid of client meetings, court appearances, and late nights spent pouring over legal briefs.I could see the delight on Mabel and Libby's face , I could not tell they missed my prescence or they were pretending to. Libby had been blowing phone off worried something was wrong with me, when I assured her nothing was wrong and only decided to take a short vacation. I hadn't heard from her since, I presumed she allowed me to have my vacation in peace. "Good morning boss" they chirped "Good morning Mabel, Good morning Libby" Despite my short absence, it felt like so much had changed.

Aurora POV:I woke up feeling better, but a bit later than usual, that was expected considerin the time I slept. I had a calm soothing dream that lifted my spirit. I slowly dragged myself out of bed and walked into the livingroom to see my mom was cooking already. She was making a toast. I couldn't argue with that"Good morning mom" "Morning darling" she replied "I wanted to let you rest properly so I didn't wake you" "Thanks, I needed it" I muttered "Settle down, let me serve you a toast" The sudden ringing of the telephone interrupted both of us. I frowned. I was glad I didn't hope it was Micheal, it meant I was finally facing reality. “It’s probably another telemarketer,” mom muttered. “I wish we could afford one of those new answering machines and caller ID" she said for the umpteenth time."I will answer it" I said, while walking to the living room to answer the phone. “Hardy residence,” i said in a light, friendly tone"Aurora" He said It was Michael! I had to catch my b
A Secretary's Vendetta I can't say...
Aurora POV:“It’s something about Amanda, isn’t it?”I gasped. His eyebrows arched over the frames of his glasses."You know her" he asked"I heard about her. I’m not a petunia. I don’t just hang on the porch all the time,” she said . “I get my hair done, I go to the doctor’s office, I see a lot of people. I've heard one or two things about her.“I’ve found an eyewitness who thinks she can place her at the motel with your husband the last day of his life,” he told her, “just before the ambulance came to take him to the hospital. She ran out the door and was seen. At the hospital the doctor, not aware of any foul play, diagnosed a heart attack from the symptoms. There was no autopsy.”“That’s right,” Mom said. She gave Michael a knowing look. “And you think she killed him, don’t you?” she asked He was impressed. “Yes, I do,” he told her honestly.“I didn’t want to think about that, but I’ve had my doubts,” she said. “He never had heart trouble. There had been some mixup at a clinic in
