Hunter's P.O.V.
———————"Good morning Mr Jaquish, Mr Harwood " I greet the two men who I am familiar with and giving them a handshake which is obvious that they grudgingly accepted.
Well Dad was right.
I sight Lily at the left end of the table and I acknowledge her with a nod.
But the third man in the room was a strange appearance to this party. And from my apprehension he looks to be my age more so or a tad bit older.
" And may I ask who?" Referring to the gentleman who is currently undressing my secretary with his eyes.
" This is Mr Hayes, my nephew and the one to take over my business. So he is right to be here to know the companies he is up for " Mr Jaquish answers glaring at me with his last words.
You're angry. Hint taken.
" Well then, nice to

Hunter's P.O.V——————— I was just returning from my fourth and final meeting of the day. Believe me when I say I am beyond exhausted. The rest of the meetings went by without strain and Iris was documenting as a secretary should. Dare I say it, but she is efficient. Walking into my office floor with Iris slightly farther back, the elevator door just sealed shut and I turned to look at her. Her bun was in a slight mess but it was still suitable. She was taking slow strides and obviously too engrossed in the file of the last meeting to notice my actions. Speaking of actions, I needed to understand why she acted the way she did earlier today in the meeting with Bellevue." Iris?"" Jules" Sh

" Louie honey, you've been quiet all morning are you okay?" It's the truth. Louisa was always very cheerful and jumpy in the morning, so to my assumptions she was a morning person.But sadly not today.And I'm beginning to get worried." Maybe she's sick or something " Cheryn who was the shortest and most plump lady who came to greet me with a hug on my first day suggested." Are you sick? Any belly pains?" I asked her to confirm Cheryn's suspicion but she just shook her head in a negative response." Louie? Should I make your banana smoothie?" Cheryn asked her but she just shook her head in a no again.Louisa is declining her favorite snack.Something is definitely wrong." Okay, should I cook something else?" Cheryn was in charge of cooking around here, so trying to win Louie over with a meal was

Hunter's P.O.V———————" Mr McConnell it's time for the meeting " Iris calls outside my door and I grunt in annoyance. Would it kill to have just a day of nothing ? I walked out of the door and see her standing outside with a bunch of papers in her hands. She was also putting on glasses, I can't remember when last I saw her with those." I never knew you still used your glasses " I asked her as we made our way to the elevator." Are we back to you asking questions that I wouldn't answer?" She steps into the elevator and goes to her extreme end again. All this distance keeping is beginning to make me feel like a monster.After pressing the floor number into the control I stood back and waited for it to close." You know I wouldn't hit you

It's finally Saturday and Louie seems to have stepped out of her Trance of fear. And I couldn't be happier. She was arguing with Jennifer, a slim sized elderly lady who helped me pick out my gown about what type of earrings suit my dress." A really really long dangly one, don't you think so mummy?" Jennifer laughed at her persistence and grabbed her with both hands." I think your momma should be better off with a stud or a pearl, don't you think Claudette?"" Of course I agree but that little ninja in your arms might bite our head off if we do otherwise " Claudette who was adding finishing touches to my make up said before she peeked behind me to know if Louisa heard her.And she did." If mummy doesn't wear my earrings then I am not going to scho

Hunter's P.O.V.———————Our ride to Peachvine Marques where the dinner will be hosted was a pretty long and frustrating one. I had to make Edward drive us to the event and come back after four hours to pick us up because I really didn't trust myself not to stop this vehicle by the roadside and try something stupid.She's calling for trouble on her own, how can she wear this and expect me not to strain. I'm a full grown bloody man for fuck sake and she's a girl with everything.Fuck hate. The hate didn't stop me the last time, I'm only praying it stops me now.Fuck hormones.Fuck women.Fuck this stupid Gala.Fuck everything. I'm seated at the opposite end of the Mercedes Benz C300 I chose for the event and I lo

Mr Reid was a true iconic figure, you could even tell just from his movement. But that wasn't the only thing that caught my eye. Mason walked into the building directly behind his parents looking too edible for my health. His long blonde hair was held back into a smooth and shiny bun, meanwhile his matte black tuxedo gave him an exotic appearance. I could definitely feel his presence from my position and I'm very sure every single lady in this room can feel it too.Am i drooling? I think I am." No going over to Mason tonight" Hunter ordered like he was my dad." And why is that? I can't converse with a friend just because of some stupid deal?" I placed one hand on my hip and the other still firmly held my glass cup." I don't know what your definition of friend is, but it's clear that our dic

It's a Tuesday morning and I'm counting one week with my life as my bullies secretary.It feels like a month.The time is a few minutes past nine and I haven't seen a sign of my boss.Well you actually didn't look.True.But we have a fixed meeting with Ying and Shang in less than an hour so I expect him to be around somewhere.I was by the cabinet locating contract booklets and a notepad that would be necessary for the meeting when my door was effortlessly opened.And there's only one person who would step into my office without knocking." You ready for the meeting?" Hunter asks as he takes a seat on my chair that's behind the desk.Still locating the files I need I gave him an answer." As you can see, I'm preparing." Aha! found them.

Monday morning.. Meaning another week is almost gone and Hunter's honeymoon-ing secretary is still living her best life. Edward just took Louisa to school and I'm tidying up after her before heading out to work myself. After I picked up one of Louie's clothes from the floor, the ringing of my cellphone interrupted my activity. I had a little thought in mind that heavens should let it be that Mr Brooks had changed his mind and is retracting me back to Bridgewaters. I approached the phone on the nightstand and checked the caller. After seeing who it was, I literally got angry at myself. Then I answered the call." Meredith I am so, so, so sorry I haven't been keeping in touch. It's just.....there are so many things happening right now and I don't even know how to explain them to anyone "
