Chapter 16.
I and Thomas were talking about books and different genres that we liked to read. The time flew and I had no idea that it had been so long until I looked outside and saw that the sun was starting to set.
”What time is it?” I asked him. He looked at his watch and his eyes grew three sizes.
”19:30, wow,” He said and I freaked out. We had ordered coffee from the cafe next door and eaten baked goods and bagels for hours, talking about books. We had staked a few piles of books that we brought out to share with each other and It had been so fun.
”I think it’s time to head back home,” I said with a smile. Thomas nodded his head in agreeance and we started putting all the books back in their place.
As we were walking out of the b

The day had just begun and it still felt amazing. Regardless of the little debacle downstairs earlier, I wouldn't let it ruin my good mood.An office message popped up on my screen from Ashton saying he wanted everyone gathered in the hall right away. This only happened when there was a big announcement to be made, or at least that’s what I heard.I walked out and gathered with the others who were standing around, Ashton was standing in front of everyone, ready to speak.Pazzi came walking towards me. His shoulders had a predatory bow and his nostrils were flaring. He came and stood next to me. He looked to be bothered by something. Pazzi nudged my arm and leaned down.”How much did you and Jackson speak?” He asked me. He showed little to no emo

I strutted towards the door as slowly as possible hoping he would change his mind before my hand reached the handle.”I think a snail just passed you, Ms. Shaw,” Ashton said sarcastically, sounding as bored as ever.I sighed and bit my lip, walking faster and opening the door before heading out.Thomas was still surrounded by people and I turned to face Ashton. I lifted my hands to my sides and tilted my hip.”See? I’ll say hi later,” I said and tried walking away.My hand was gripped tightly and I was dragged through the crowd and over to Thomas.”Mr. Johnson, this is Elena Shaw, my assistant,” He said and pushed me to the front.Everyone got quiet and I hoped to god that Thomas saw the pleads in my eyes and knew what to do.

I was in the building restaurant buying lunch. I opted for the spaghetti bolognese and went to sit by an empty table. I dug in right away and hoped that nobody would join me.The sooner I finished my lunch the sooner I could continue with work and forget about this day.I do however need to speak with Thomas, we need to get our story straight.”Excuse me, is this seat taken?” Speaking of the devil.”No, please, sit,” I said and smiled at Thomas as he took a seat.I looked around to make sure that nobody would hear me before I spoke.”Thank you for not showing that we knew each other earlier,” I said.

So much fucking drama.I groaned, burying my face in my pillow, dreading the day ahead.I felt sore, but not from working out nor from being too physically active. I felt sore from top to toe from all the shit going on. My mind was begging me for a break, for a pause.I desperately wanted to obey but there was no way in hell that Ashton would allow me to take a leave of absence.It was Friday, meaning I had tomorrow to look forward to. The scary movie marathon with Thomas. We had agreed that I would bring wine and two scary movies that I liked and he would get the snacks and two movies that he found scary.And we would binge-watch scary movies and eat crap all day and night until our eyes couldn’t bear to stay open.

He had glistening blue eyes. They were really a sight to behold.”The name’s Elena,” I said with a smile.”Charles! What’s your input on the DC project?” Mr. Abarnathe asked him.His eyes however were still on me. He didn't move his head or pay any attention to his father.I felt myself shivering under his gaze. As if he was asorting dominance over me.I automatically leaned towards Ashton without thinking about it. When I felt his arm I jumped in shock and looked up at him.I can't rely on him for protection anymore.

We had all gathered around the conference room table once again. Charles was next to his father and Pazzi was next to me.The tension was so thick you could cut through it with a knife. Everyone was uncomfortable and I couldn't wait for this fucking meeting to be over. I needed to speak with Ashton and it was urgent.Nobody was talking, everyone was silent as the only noise came from the clock on the wall. Edging me into madness with every ’tick’ it made.”I believe this meeting is over,” I said, unable to take the awareness nor the gun-pointed dickheads that were sitting both in front of me and next to me.I needed answers. I may not deserve them but If I want to have any chance of being happy, I need to know why he told me he left the Ma

”Hi, where’s Mr. Carlson?” I asked one of the IT guys by the coffee machine.”No idea, he hasn’t been in the office for three days,” He said and I nodded my head.I hadn’t been here for two days either, I called in sick.When I got here I noticed how calm everyone was, Jasmine was moping by her desk and the other girls were doing their job without talking much. It was all very weird.Apparently, Ashton hadn't been here for the past few days and neither had Pazzi.I walked to my office and got ready to work. But as I sat there, I couldn't think of what to do. As if I had forgotten all my assignments, papers, jobs, and even how to start the computer.

”Pazzi you don't understand,”I said in a gasp.”Then help me to understand!” He yelled as he paced around the apartment.”I can’t!” I shouted from where I stood.Pazzi turned around and took quick steps towards me.”You were nearly killed today, Elena! Whatever the fuck it is, you can tell me!” He shouted. His warm breath hitting my face with every word.I stared at him befuddled.”How much do you know Pazzi?” I asked him in merely a whisper.”Everything,” I drew in a deep breath before nodding my head.I grabbed his hands in mine and locked his eyes with mine.
