Chapter 3 - CHAPTER TWO

GETTING DIRTY

CHLOE HAYFORD

"Welcome back gorgeous." George's warm hands welcomed me with an embrace at the airport upon my arrival from Nigeria.

" Thank you so much sweetheart." I said planting a kiss on his right cheek.

" I still can't get my head around it. Are you two just friends or in a relationship?" Kiswiwaa's voice came from a distance as she walked up to us.

" Just don't give your self a headache from trying to understand what's going on between us" I said to her and she chuckled.

" So how did it go?" they both asked with a chorus.

" It went well, the news about my wedding wreck got there faster than I thought."

" Really?"

" Yeah Kisiwaa, but that got me the contract." I said with my head high.

" Go girl!" She cheered me up and I cat walked around like a model making us burst into laughter.

" Have your spoken to your mother?" Kisiwaa asked as we sat in the limo she they came with.

" Not really."

" Don't tell me it's because of Bennis' wedding? She's my sister but I'm not mad at you for wrecking it because I had warned her about Harry but she was blinded and had her head in the clouds thinking he was the perfect man for her. One thing that shocked me the most was that his mother knew about his affair and went on to plot with him."

" I know right. "

" Your mom needs to get it together because I'm grateful for what you did for Bennis'. Who would've known how hurt she would've been if she had married him not to talk about him maltreating her during their marriage." Kisiwaa added.

" I hope she sees the brighter side than seeing me as the bad one." I said with a sigh.

George took my hand and patted on it with his other hand.

" I hate to see you like this. " he said and I smiled.

We arrived at my office as the car stopped in front of the building.

"Looking forward to tonight." George said to me before getting back into the car.

Kisiwaa and I entered the building and my employees welcomed me warmly with my secretary rushing to my side.

" Good morning Miss Chloe." Jenna greeted.

" Good morning Jenna, how has work been in my absence?"

" There are some files to be signed urgently and the board of directors have a meeting this afternoon at 1:30pm which will require your presence. The Quenny marketing products are in and we need your endorsement in order to proceed with the advertisement and marketing procedure. " Jenna stated.

" Okay, bring all the files that need my signature to my office also, I'll be leaving early today so make sure to shift my other appointments to tomorrow's schedule since I wouldn't be busy."

" Yes ma'am."

" Also, call Mackenzie Pastries and inform them to hurry with the pastries because Friday is the day of the event. " I added before she left.

Jenna came to my office few minutes after Kisiwaa and I were seated and handed I've the files for me to endorse them.

" Thank you very much." Jenna said packing up the files I just signed and endorsed.

" I am not the only one leaving early today. You all are. I can tell how tired you all are due to the heavy work load in my absence." I said to her and she smiled.

" You're such an Angel Miss Chloe." She said with gratitude.

" I'm not Angel Chloe, I wreck weddings." I said making her giggle.

" Make sure to inform me in time so we can attend the meeting with the board of directors." I said to her.

" I will Ma'am." She said before walking out of my office.

" How is business?" I asked Kisiwaa who sighed as she relaxed in the sofa in my office.

" The coffee shop is going well and so is my network marketing business which you introduce me to. You're a real life saver girl. When I thought I was going to loose the coffee shop then boom! You come up with a solution. "

"What are friends for?" I said tapping the tip of my pen on the desk.

" Have you heard from Alex since you returned?" She asked causing a frown to creep up to my face.

" Why would you ask about him? You know a raised topic with Alex as the center of attraction gets me all wonky and unhappy. " I said to her standing up from my chair. Walking up to the front of my desk, I learned against it using my buttocks as a support against the table as I pressed my right hand on the edge of the desk.

" You've got to make a decision Chloe, you an George, I don't really get what's going on between you two. You two have the sparks and look great together but none of you are in for anything serious."

" George and I are you know, we can't define our relationship apart from friends and maybe sometimes we cross the friendship line too but Alex, no way. He's arrogant, egoistic and one of the individuals I can't stand so please don't bring him up." I said to her and she nodded lifting both hands in the air admitting surrender.

A knock was heard on my office door.

" Wow, she's early, I thought the meeting was supposed to be 1: 30 pm?" I said as I walked for the door expecting to see Jenna only for me to find a young man with a bouquet covering his face as he held it in his hand.

" Miss Hayford?" He asked and I nodded.

" Kindly sign here." He said and I did totally confused.

" There's a card in it, I was asked to inform you about it. Have a wonderful day." He said handing over the bouquet of lilies to me before wondering off to his work.

" Whoo, see who has her secret admirers sending her bouquet." Kiswiwaa teased and I rolled my eyes before taking out the card and reading the note inside.

" Your eyes reminds me of the sun whenever I stare at them in the night and they remind me of the stars when I stare at them during the day. Words cannnot describe how much I admire you, nkt just your beauty but the brave and amazing woman you are. This is a little token if my love for you." I read an looked beneath the card at the bottom only to see the only "A" symbol that signifies it's Alex.

" Is it him?" Kiswiwaa asked when she saw the unpleasant look on my face as I shove the bouquet into the dustbin.

" Do you hate him because you two are rivals in the marketing Industry or is it because he likes you or you just dislike him?" Kisiwaa asked with curiosity.

" How will you take it when the one person who is your potential rival in your business who fights with you all the time, ranks high whenever you rank higher so he could surpass you suddenly becomes all romantic and professes his romantic desires and emotions to you. Wouldn't you at least have a hunch that he's up to no good?" I pointed out.

" That makes a lot of sense." She said with agreement and thoughtfully.

" Thank you. (I saw Jenna walk to my office as I hadn't locked the door after the delivery guy left.

" if you'd excuse me, I've got some business meeting to attend." I said grabbing a file which I handed over to Jenna when she arrived.

" See you later girlfriend." I said to her but then she stood up.

" I'll have to leave too. It's noon and the boss needs to be around." She said receding to coffee shop.

" Yeah. Take care." I said and gave her a hug before we walked out if my office.

" Good afternoon." I greeted the board members and they responded before I took my seat.

" Congratulations on getting the Nigeria contract." Mr. Annim said to me as I took my seat.

" I wouldn't have gotten it without your help and support. This company is on its feet and where it is today thanks to it's competent board members." I said with delight and the room was filled with glowing appreciative smiles.

" So…what do we have on the table?" I asked and Seth walked up to the projected screen. He illustrated and explained all their ideas and brought them on the table.

" What do you think Miss Hayford?" Seth asked after his presentation.

" It's an excellent idea but what do you say about we adding the electronic means as well so those outside of the country can do the same transactions and access it easily." I suggested.

" That's a wonderful idea. Since we live in the technology age than introducing the electronic procedure and method then others will be able to access it out of the country. Not only this branch will profit but the other branches outside as well." Mr. Arthur added.

" Kindly add it to the package and when you're done, give it to Jenna to bring it to my office for endorsement. You have great ideas and I'm glad you've put it on the table. Thank you Seth.'xm" I said to him and he smiled.

" So…we will end here for today. Thank you very much for the hard work even in my absence. I appreciate you all." I said closing the meeting and shaking some hands before making my way for the door with Jenna.

" Have you shifted my appointments to tomorrow?" I asked Jenna as we walked to my office.

" Yes Ma'am, one more thing."

" What is it?"

" You have an appointment with Mr. Seth Jerkins at 3pm."

" Postpone it to tomorrow morning at 10am. "

" Okay Ma'am."

" Jenna…"

" Yes?"

" Will you quit calling me Ma'am? I told you several times that it makes me look old."

" But Ma.."

"Shh…" I said taking a look at her with a smile and shaking my head sideways.

" I'll work on it Miss Chloe."

" You're now talking." I said making us giggle.

" Make sure to close the others by 2:30 pm and you also must leave the building. "

" I will."

" Is my car ready?" I asked her as I picked up my purse from my desk.

" Yes please."

" okay. Then I'll take my leave. Don't forget…"

" I won't. Cross my heart "

" The last time you said that, you were two hours late from closing." I said with a chuckle as she helped me grab my coat.

" Then I promise." She replied getting the door for me.

" Good. I'll see you tomorrow then." I said waving at her as I headed out if the building.

Upon my arrival at George's apartment, I parked my car in his parking lot and walked out with my purse.

" Finally." George said as he walked towards me in a pair of shorts and unbuttoned shirt.

" Do you always go around with unbuttoned shirts or only when I'm around?" I asked meeting him.

" Its only when you're around." He said grabbing me by the waist and planting a kiss on my forehead.

" Has Kisiwaa been asking you about what we have?' He asked as we headed indoors.

" You know her, she's more like my second mom. She's been telling me to consider Alex."

" Well, Alex isn't that bad."

" Hey!" I said hitting him on the shoulder.

" Ouch!" he cried.

" Alex is a fine gentleman. Besides don't let your business rivalry prevent you from romance." He added.

" I have you, who else will I go to for romance?"

" I Know, but we can't do this forever. We will eventually meet someone we will go crazy over and we won't be having this fun anymore." He said and well, as much as I hate to admit it but he's right.

" Let's not talk about it now. I'm too tired from the trip." I said as I let myself go and sank into the sofa in the hall.

" won't you have a warm bath first?" He asked and I looked up at him with a mischievous smile.

" Care to join me?" I asked as I stoke my collar bone seductively.

" It will be my pleasure." He said as he followed me into the bathroom. I placed my phone at a safe place Incase I got a phone call before focusing my attention to George.

He sat me on the edge of the sink and took off my heels, kissing me from tow to toe then up my legs to my knee, he held calf as if it were a fine treasure as his lips traveled to my thigh slowly up to my waist. He brushed his fingers down my thighs reaching for my inner thighs as he grabbed my panty and pulled it down. Without hesitation, he sent his hands to my back and down my waist, unzipping my skirt. I crossed my arms around his neck as he took it off and unbuttoned my shirt revealing my red bra.

" You do know I have a thing for red colors don't you." He said undertone and I smirked.

" Wanna unhook it?"

" I sure will." He said sending his hand to the small of my back as he unhooked the bra with his lips traveling down my neck you my clavicle then down my shoulder. I could feel the tip in his fingers on my hands as he took off the bra and it sent chills down my spine and my knees shivered when his tongue reached out for my left nipple.

" George…you driving me crazy."

" No…no, don't go there yet, I'm just getting started." He whispered with his right hand resting in my left breast. He gently fondled in it as his lips met mine and my hands traveled into his hair. He grabbed both my legs and made me wrap them around his waist while he kissed me. He gently laid me inside the bath tub and joined me without turning on the pipe. I laid in it breathing heavily as he duck his head in between my thighs and his tongue reached for my honeypot, licking the pleasure out of me making me grab his head for more and letting out moans that got him licking deeper till I couldn't take it no mfke but then he stopped and looked up at me with a smile then turned on the tap causing the water to fill the bath tub. Why did he have to stop?

" George.." I cried.

" take your bath first, I have something for you." He said getting out of the bathtub completely naked making me enjoy the view.

" Make sure not to touch yourself." He teased as he walked out of the bathroom.

I hurried with the bath and wrapped a towel around my chest. I opened the door only to meet naked George standing at the door.

He grabbed me by the arm and striped the towel off, bending me over in the sink and getting closer, I felt his hardness press against me but then he moved back and rather sent a finger in between my legs reaching for me and fingering me so hard that my legs shook. You have no idea how good he is with his hands.

" I love it when you're this wet." He whispered biting on my ear love with his finger still inside me making my head turn.

" I want you George." I cried.

" Do you?" he whispered and I nodded.

" Are you sure you want this?" He whispered again and I nodded. I understood why he kept on asking because we've never had intercourse despite the foreplays we've been having. He promised not to pluck the fruit meant for my husband because it might get stuck on me and break our one rule of not falling in love.

" Get inside me already. " I cried grabbing him from the back while I was still bent over the sink.

"As you wish…," he whispered and I felt his hand brush against my ass as he held his dick . I felt the tip brush against my clit. He was about penetrating when my phone began to ring. I looked over and it was my mother's emergency number.

I quickly grabbed the phone as George pulled away and answered the call.

" What's wrong?" he asked with concern.

" It's my mom… she got into an accident."
