Chereads / My Insufferable Boss / Chapter 56 - 55

Chapter 56 - 55

I slip off my coat as I hear the elevator door open. I turn around to see Nayel walking toward me, holding onto his briefcase. He was on the phone talking to someone and the thing that caught my eye was he was wearing a sweater today instead of his usual coat attire. Not just any sweater but the one I made for him. The biggest smile spreads on my lips as my heart starts to melt.

Nayel flashes a soft smile my way as he walks past me into his office. I waste no time following him inside and locking the door behind me. I didn't even bother to check if anyone was watching me.

Nayel was still on the phone as I grab his hand and pull him towards the new couch he got for his office. He quirks an eyebrow at me as I push him down and straddle his lap. I immediately start placing kisses on his face, smearing my lipstick all over him.

"Sounds good, I'll see you soon," Nayel says before hanging up and throwing his phone to the side.

His hands find my hips as he pulls me closer, "Hi" Nayel grins.

"Hi" I cup his face in my hands and smash our lips together. Nayel's fingers dig into my sides as I kiss him passionately with all my strength.

We finally pull away and Nayel catches his breath, "You're awfully horny this morning"

I giggle wrapping my arms around his neck, "It's just seeing you in that sweater really got me going" I purr in his ear.

"Oh, this ugly thing?" Nayel gestures to his sweater, "It was from this girl who's obsessed with me"

I smack him on the arm making him laugh, "I can't believe you're wearing it"

"Why wouldn't I? My perfect girlfriend made it for me, I need to show it off" Nayel grins.

"You always know the right things to say" I whisper in his ear, placing soft kisses down his neck.

I suck on a spot on his jaw that I've grown to learn he loves earning a hoarse groan to escape his lips. I slide my hand down his chest and gently cup his growing erection.

I unclasp his belt and slide my hand into his pants, moaning as I felt his hardness on my hand.

I wrap my hand around his pulsing dick and slowly start moving my hand up and down his dick. I pick up my pace and move my hand up and down, caressing his cock in my hand, feeling his veins pop up and pulse up as I pick up my rhythm.

Nayel grabs the back of my neck and pulls me into a kiss, moaning into my mouth.

.....

"If this is the type of treatment I get when I wear this sweater, I'm actually never going to take it off" Nayel smirks pulling up his pants.

"Maybe you shouldn't" I wink at him, walking back to my desk.

"There you are gorgeous, I've been looking all over for you" I hear a familiar voice, and then my eyes lock with the most mesmerizing green eyes known to man that belonged to none other than Preston Miller.

Preston Miller is a criminal justice lawyer who was one of the first lawyers who started working at Jefferson Legal. He and Nayel went to law school together and was one of the very few people Nayel was actually fond of. I did an internship with him during my last year of law school and he actually was the one who recommended this job to me. Put a good name for me and everything. When I started working there he was sort of like my mentor, helped me out a lot especially when Nayel wasn't super easy to work for. That was until he moved to San Fransico to be closer to his family a year ago.

"Preston, oh my gosh, hi" I squeal moving to hug him.

"I've been out here for over 20 minutes, was Nayel firing you in there?" Preston quirks an eyebrow, the grin never leaving his lips.

I wave a hand over our faces, "I was just helping him prepare for a hearing tomorrow." I lie confidently.

"Since when does Nayel Jefferson take help?" Preston stares at me with amusement.

I open my mouth to speak but I was cut off by Nayel walking out of his office, "Maria, have you seen-" He stops once he sees Preston and me.

"You've got major balls showing your face around here again" Nayel stares at Preston.

Preston chuckles, "I missed you too buddy," He says pulling Nayel into a hug. Under's Nayel whole macho exterior I could see the shadow of a smile appear on his lips as he pats his back.

"You said you wouldn't be here before 12," Nayel says checking his watch.

"Decided to drop by earlier to check in on old friends" Preston smiles at me which for some reason made me blush.

"Nice sweater" Preston eyes Nayel up and down, "This is probably the first time I'm seeing you without a proper suit. It makes you look like an actual human."

"It was a gift made by someone special," Nayel says in a casual tone making me want to jump his bones yet again in front of Preston.

"You've started asking for help on your cases and you've got a special someone in your life? Who are you? What did you do to Nayel?" Preston jokes making me chuckle.

.....

"You okay if Maria tags along to lunch with us?" Preston asks Nayel as they exit the office.

"Sure, if she wants to" Nayel gives me a look.

"I'd love to" I smile at Preston picking up my things.

"I'm not going to lie M, I'm disappointed to see you're not a junior exec yet" Preston frowns at me as we arrive at our table.

"I'm actually considering leaving law for good," I say rather embarrassed in front of Preston.

"You're what?" He says completely bewildered, "You're a phenomenal lawyer"

"I don't know if I am" I shrug.

"You are" Nayel interjects flashing me a half-smile.

Preston turns to Nayel, "Seriously, who are you?" He says making me giggle, "I'm going to get back to you in a bit" Preston turns back to me, "What made you want to switch?"

I gulp, "I've just felt like this wasn't the right field for me for a very long time but I was always too scared to admit it to myself and everyone else that I, you know failed"

"Now M, that's an insult to me. I would never mentor a lost cause" Preston furrows his eyes at me playfully making me smile. He reaches forward and puts his hand on top of mine, "You're a phenomenal lawyer, I've seen you in a courtroom. You have what it takes"

I smile, "That means more to me than you would ever know but I just don't know if the passion I had for it back in law school can be ignited again."

Preston gives me a half frown, half smile, something he always did when he was disappointed but Preston being Preston could never get too angry with anyone so he always shrugged his anger off, "So all those years for nothing huh?" He jokes.

"If it's not something she's up for anymore no one should force her into it. She'll be great at whatever she decides to do." Nayel says and for a few minutes, I forgot he was at the table with us making me feel guilty.

"Okay, okay. I respect your decision." Preston throws his hands in the air, "Back to you, someone must care about you a lot if they took the time out to hand-knit a sweater for your gorilla-sized body." Preston grins at Nayel, "Who's the poor girl you're blackmailing?"

Nayel chuckles, "Jealous?" He quirks an eyebrow.

"Concerned actually, very concerned," Preston says making me giggle.

"Seriously, when did you become nice? I keep asking and both of you keep dodging the question" Preston's tone laced with seriousness.

"Who said I'm nice?" Nayel quirks a brow.

"Well in the past 10 minutes, you've given Maria not 1 but 2 compliments. Last time I was around you used to make her cry at least once a day and now?" Preston jokes.

Nayel's eyes meet with mine and they are filled with guilt, "He's kidding" I assure him casually.

"Am I?" Preston stares at me in disbelief, "How many times did you come into my office bawling because he was a dick to you?"

"I'm just an emotional person" I shrug, "I cry a lot," I say looking directly at Nayel whose face was laced with remorse.

"Can we order now?" I say changing the topic not wanting Nayel to feel worse about things that are way in the past now. We love each other, it doesn't really matter to me how we got here.
