Nate's POVI don't know what it is that was always wrong when meeting with Mike but it became bothersome to me.Having such odd and unrelatable feelings towards someone is suspicious.There's no way that there is no bad or dangerous hidden act in the hands of Mike.As I was trying to pace the whole situation even though it was proving stubborn to understand, there was nothing I could donate at the moment.I thought to myself to wait for Damien since he said he was coming, I will tell him about the whole issue and then we'll also conduct another finding through our private investigator to know Mike's movements and other things that can be found in him.Also, the fact that he said he needed to get the contact of my private investigator made me know he was up to something fishy.I suspected him a lot and I could tell he had something's he was up to which is of no good.Not long as I was still thinking, I heard a knock on my door and then Damien came into my office.As he entered, I could
Nate's POVI think that explains the odd unrelatable feeling I usually have when Mike is around me.It never sits well with me nor have I gotten used to it since we started seeing each other for our partnership meetings.How do I break this news to Isabella, imagine telling her that I have something to say to her and the thing that comes out of my mouth is that I partnered with her ex-boyfriend for work.Wouldn't she even think we've known each other before and I'm a culprit too?She might also think I probably want to sell her out in the long run and send her back to Mike or even maybe I'm a bad person just as Mike was.I might probably hurt her the same way Mike had done to her or even worse.All this situation is so blurry and it's giving me no clear way forward on how I should go about the situation.I and Damien sat still in my office for so long, it could be minutes or even an hour on but we didn't know.We were only just worried about the whole situation that just unravelled in
Nate's POVI was still sitting there in my office, with my mind running through different thoughts because Jane had come to put me off my present dilemma.She knocked on my door and came into my office, then she told me we had a site inspection we needed to do for now as the clients were already on their way there.I had thought she didn't notice a change in my mood because I had tried to mask my current mood as she came into my office, but I guess I thought wrong or she probably just read my mind because she asked me if I was good immediately I had just thought about her not noticing my mood change.I jinxed it, I guess.Oh, of course, I'm good, I tried to put on a smiling face.I'm only tired for the day and I'd completely forgotten about the site inspection we have scheduled for later today.But don't worry about me, okay?It's fine, let's just go.I checked through my table to see if I needed anything and I picked up my phone before leaving the office.I met with Jane downstairs w
Nate's POVI gave her a nod as we both walked to the front of the building to go meet up with our client.Hi, Mr Nelson, I said as I approached him.He also greeted me back.Hello, Mr Nate sorry we are late.We encountered a bit of traffic on our way here, that was the cause of our delay.Oh, not to worry, that's fine.Alright, let's get into it then.How far gone is the work, he asked me.Oh, it's going pretty well and the workers are doing a great job so far, as you can see for yourself now.The work is going on speedily which means we will be able to achieve everything we want to do in due time.This is a good job done so far, he said with a smile on his face as he nodded in approval of the progress of the work. I'm very pleased with the pace at which this work is moving.With the rate of things now, it means we will have enough time to complete everything we want to before the opening date.I like the work you people are doing here so far. This shows we are in trusted hands.Oh,
Nate's POV.I did a bit more paperwork and signed all the documents Jane had given to me earlier that needed to be signed.I did this for over two hours and I completed all the work that I needed to do for the day.After I finished, I turned in to go and rest for the day.I had wanted to go home today so I could see Isabella but the turnout of this didn't make me feel like it anymore.I wanted to make sure that I have everything under control before I can go home to face Isabella.This issue with Mike was just a turn in my flesh.I knew I needed to sort it out as soon as possible before it got completely out of hand.I went into the room that I had at my workplace after Jane came to tell me she was done for the day.She bade me a good night and so did I too.As soon as I stepped into the room, I got a call from Andrew.He said he was coming to see me at work.I asked if there was any problem and he said there was no problem at all.That even made me more worried because I didn't know
Isabella's POVAs soon as I got back into the kitchen, Thelma was already waiting for me.She said, she had checked around the kitchen and she had thought of a meal we could make but she was waiting for me just in case the ladies had another good option or suggestions for the food we should make.I told her immediately that the ladies didn't say anything to me, when I asked them if they had anything in mind for us to make, they all echoed a big “no” all at once.It was as if they had rehearsed it before.I didn't know what to say to them so I just said “okay” and left.They didn't seem to want to speak even if I persuaded them, it would have been a waste of time, effort and energy.Also, looking on the bright side, we are not restricted to making what they want and they are not picky with food too so we can make something very nice ourselves and they will appreciate it. Well, that's true, I'm glad they didn't pick anything too because I have an idea of what when I went to check for
Isabella's POVI watched Andrew leave the kitchen, as he took the food pack along with him and he stylishly stole a glance at Thelma as he left.I cleared my throat as I turned to Thelma to see her face.She made a blank expressionless face but as her friend, I could tell she also saw the way Andrew looked at her.I wanted to even tease her about it but I had a rethink of heart so I decided not to anymore.After what she had faced in the hands of a relationship before, I don't know how long it will take Thelma to give love a chance again.I really wish I could help her but there is little or nothing I could do about it.I immediately put on a smiling face to lighten up the room then I told her to come set the table with me.I had told the ladies to join us in ten minutes and I'm sure they will be here soon.We brought out the food she had served in the serving dishes and we took them to the dining area.We set the tables with plates and all the cutleries that will be needed.She also
Isabella POVAs soon as I got upstairs, I started giggling at my trick to get Thelma and Andrew to be together.I'd stylishly left them all alone in the kitchen, lying to Thelma that I wanted to use the restroom.I need to even go to the restroom and pretend that I have a stomach upset, if not and Thelma finds me here, she is definitely going to kill me.As I stood up to go to the restroom, I heard loud stumps of feet ascending the stairs.I knew for a fact that it was Thelma and she was on her way to the room to come fight me.I hurriedly rushed into the restroom before she came into the room and caught me.I looked at myself in the toilet before she entered and I heard her calling out my name very loudly.Isabella, Isabella.Come out now, wherever you are, she said and I could hear her loud panting coming from the room.I also shouted her name back“ Thelma, that's you right?”I'm in the restroom, I don't know what is wrong with me.She didn't seem to buy the idea and she said to me
