I couldn't start to imagine it. The fact that he made it seem like I was the guilty one. Meanwhile he was the guilty party.
He didn't step out of his office throughout that day, there were visitors but he saw them off halfway or didn't come out at all.
To some extent I was thankful I didn't get to see him. His face, hair or his suit. It all made sense if I didn't…right now.
The sooner I was home I got a beep from Jared. There was a note that read, "Company dinner by 7pm this night. Don't be late."
I groaned the minute I comprehended the message. Mum entered the room that minute walking up to me. I shoved the phone under my pillow staring at her with some smile on my face, "Hi, mum."
"Everything okay?" she let out.
"Yeah sure, I was looking through some important office documents." Even though I had to sneak in to have this alone time, it didn't count. Claire wanted to be around me 24/7.
