chapter 64
After a few days of whining like a woman whose lover had just grown tired of her, Stephanie had finally returned to the company without having decided to give up the business. Damon Dixon was hers and nobody else’s, and she intended to get him back by any means necessary. As she crossed the company hall to the elevator, she heard voices behind her. She knew perfectly well that it was her they were talking about, and this irritated her to no end, but she was convinced that one day she would set foot in this company not only as an employee, but also as Damon’s wife. When she reached the top floor, she went straight to Carline’s office.
-I know he’s always punctual, but I’d like to know if he’s busy or not.
-He’s alone in his office,” Carline replied, unconcerned by Stephanie’s bad tone.
Stephanie turned her back and walked towards Damon’s office. With her, Carline never had time to warn her boss of her arrival, and it was always like that.
Damon was hard at work trying to forget the young woman who had haunted his thoughts from the moment he’d parted from her the day before. He didn’t want to see anyone when the door to his office opened. He raised his head to shout at his secretary when he saw the silhouette of his HR manager. He huffed and puffed and ignored her, which Stephanie didn’t like. She double-locked the door, then tucked it into her bra. She’d been doing this for a long time and had never managed to reach Damon.
-Aren’t you going to ask me how I’m doing?
-we’re here in a business, my business, I’ve taken years to build and I won’t allow anyone to jeopardize it. If you’re tired of working, just hand in your resignation and I’ll find someone else. There can only be a professional relationship between us, and I ask you to be so formal with me, my dear. You should have started work by now, as you arrived late. There’s a new employee by the name of Olivia Tuner, and you should add her name to the list of company employees.
Stephanie was astonished. Apart from Carline, Damon didn’t know the names of his employees, since she was in charge of them, which was why she was jealous of Carline, even though she knew there was nothing going on between her and Damon.
-who took care of her upkeep since I wasn’t there.Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
-You think it’s because you’re the HR director and my business can’t run without you? Think again, because before I hired you, I was doing this job myself. I think you’ve got work to do.
Stephanie couldn’t stand this story and wanted to see what this Olivia Turner looked like, but first she was going to give this man what he deserved: a good time that would make him look for her later.
