My phone beeps a message and I angrily snap it from the desk to check it. Nicholas Anastas.
You either ring me or I will be at your office at 1 pm.
Don’t push me.
I frown at the screen. Don’t push me … don’t push me, cockhead. I text back angrily.
What do you want?
He texts back immediately.
I want to know what happened between us.
I roll my eyes.
Nothing.
Stop looking for something that wasn’t there.
He texts back.
That’s bullshit and you know it.
See you at 1 pm.
I puff air into my cheeks in frustration.
Joshua walks into the office and smiles as he puts his briefcase on his desk. Then he stands still and puts his hands on his hips as his eyes scan the room. “This office fucking sucks,” he says dryly.
I glare at him in annoyance. “Shut up. I’m not in the mood,” I snap.
His eyes flick to me and he smirks. “What’s up your ass?”
“Nothing,” I snap
He laughs. “Maybe that’s the problem.” He picks up a pen and throws it at me.
I narrow my eyes at him.
Knock, knock. We both turn to the door and see two men in suits and a very attractive woman.
“Hello. We have just come to welcome you. I’m Paul and this is Alex and Tatiana.”
We both stand and shake hands with them and smile cordially.
“Tatiana and Alex here will be in the office next to yours and will help you in any way they can.” Paul says, “Hopefully this reprogramming will run as smoothly as possible.”
Joshua frowns at the woman and she smiles broadly at him.
“Oh my god,” Tatiana puts her hand on her chest. “It’s you,” she purrs.
He frowns again. “Have we met before?” he asks.
She laughs and nods. “Yes, we met at a wedding last year. We were seated next to each other. Remember?”
He smiles and nods. “That’s right, I do. Yes of course.”
My eyes flick between them as she blushes. Oh god, give me a break.
