That night, Andrew didn’t come back to the house. And he still wasn’t home the next morning.So Taylor sat in the dining room having breakfast alone. But a few minutes after she started, she heard the door open and after a few seconds of hearing his footsteps, the man’s suffocating presence filled the dining room as he strutted in and sat down. Then began eating.After what seemed like forever, she dropped her cutlery and looked up at him.She was about to say something when she noticed the bloodstains on his collar. Her first instinct was to ignore it whilst praying it was him, but when she recalled what she had learned in meditation classes and what she read in the textbooks.While Andrew and everyone else thought she had finally become submissive to him, she simply just came to terms with the fact that going head-on against him won’t do her any good.He was stronger than her, richer, and more influential. Furthermore, she didn’t have anyone to stand up to him if word got out about

Andrew was standing at the door and because of how tall he was, the sunlight penetrating in from the window by his side, shone brightly on the lower part of his face, making it impossible for anyone to look into it. However, when he stepped out of the sunlight, they quickly realized they couldn’t see his face not because of the sunlight shining on it, but because he had on a mask which stopped just above his nose. Bezalel Meyer snapped out of his shocked state and hurried towards Andrew, “Mr. Radford, I didn’t know you were coming. You should’ve called in advance to tell me you were coming so I’d prepare a befitting welcome for you.” “Mr. Radford? Who is that?” Emily Carter blurted out thoughtlessly as she craned her neck to see the person’s face only to realize he was putting on a mask. Andrew clasped his hands behind his back and glanced at Bezalel with a blank look on his face. “I didn’t think there was any need to since my wife works out here. I was in the area and I thought

In tbe third floor’s hallway, Taylor’s eyes darted around the place in confusion after hearing him. Poor? Who grew up poor? “Hey, what are you doing standing there? Ella said to tell you she doesn’t have the whole day!” The shrill voice of someone in her department drew her out of her reverie. The man had long left, but she was still standing in the hallway staring blankly at where he previously stood.She hurried back to her department and to her desk where she gave the photocopies to Ella Holland.When she arrived, Ella raised her eyes to look at her and half shouted, “What took you so long? I clearly told you I didn’t have the whole day!” Something snapped in Taylor at being shouted on, but she just clenched her jaw tightly and continued stretching the photocopies towards Ella. Biting down the harsh retort trying to make it way out of her mouth, she met Ella’s eyes and smiled at her faintly, “My apologies, I had problems with the printer, so someone came to help me.” Ella sno

Everyone silently watched as the surveillance cameras were mounted and the people from the Technology Department all left.After they left, the people from Consultant Department just stood at a distance glaring heatedly at Taylor. Now that there were two surveillance cameras, they didn’t dare to act bold anymore. However, Anna Coleman scoffed. “He helped you with the printer and he even brought you lunch because he didn’t see you in the cafeteria. Are you bragging right now?” “Does it make you feel better that someone like him noticed that someone like you exists?” When Taylor didn’t respond, she grabbed her by the shoulder and shook her fervently as she yelled into her face, “Don’t keep silent! Answer me!” Ella subconsciously glanced towards the direction of the cameras and whispered to Anna through clenched teeth. “Anna, don’t do anything here. The surveillance cameras were just mounted, I’m sure the higher ups have their eyes on it at the moment.” Anna listened to her and sto

With the now free time she had, Taylor spent every waking moment thinking about how to get to the top floor or better still, Andrew’s room. That morning, she was having breakfast with Andrew as usual when he got a call and left to answer it. She absentmindedly stabbed down at her steak as she weighed the pros and cons of how to get in to either of them. The President's office was on the last floor. His office occupied the whole floor and only a few cleaners were allowed there to clean. The only person who went up to it frequently was Kaleb Clover and because he was his assistant. Andrew had made it clear to her that she wouldn't be given any special treatment just because she was his wife so she knew Kaleb wouldn’t take her up to him if she requested to see him at work. And as a junior consultant, she had no business with even a department director talk more of the company's President. But on the other hand, it could be in his room. Andrew only let Becky clean his room. No othe
