No More
Dordrich's imposing appearance fills the office as he steps in.
I'm a bit surprised, we had an agreement that I meet him in the parking lot. His aura forces everyone to notice him and the hallways are filled with workers who secretly admire him.
I too can hardly take my eyes off him, I strip him from head to toe. Of course, I fell for his charm five years ago, he is irresistibly handsome. Although there are sharp lines in his face now, more from the alcohol abuse. He sees me looking at him eagerly and a sultry look comes into his eyes. The office is a look-out-not-in shade, so we have some privacy. Dordrich walks over to me and takes me in his arms.
“I see in your eyes almost the same desire that you had for me. I can be yours again, now forever," he whispers urgently. I am immediately out of my haze again and adopt a businesslike attitude. “No Dordrich, I already told you I'm officially engaged today. I don't need a bycatch, but thanks for the offer”, I tell him dryly. Before I know it, he occupies my lips in a passionate kiss. I lean against him and try to figure out if the sparks that intoxicated my senses before are still there.
Nope, gone.
Reassured, I free myself from his arms.
“Dordrich, this is the last intimacy between us. From now on we are business partners, I don't want any physical contact. I have a fiancé that I love dearly and I don't want to give him any reason to distrust me." Pain flashes in his eyes, his grip on me tightens. “Why, Loraine? We were so good together. Are you just banning me because Elena showed up that day? You can't punish me for that, I haven't given her any reason to behave like this," he pleads. Phewww, this is getting tiring. “It has nothing to do with that. We were already wrong to get into a relationship when you were married. You knew it from our first meeting, we got involved anyway until Elena caught us in the act. And that's the end of it. You know that very well, Dordrich”, I explain to him patiently.
He doesn't realize that this preferential treatment he now receives is due to his son. If he continues like this I will be obliged to inform him of his son's existence sooner than I thought. I gather my things together and walk out of the room in front of him. “Can you tell Archer that I've already left and will see him again tomorrow?” I let the secretary know. Archer is now in a meeting with some staff members with an important client. It's a nice deal that could bring us millions in the long run. In retrospect, indexing the manager's salary to profit was a good idea, I think.
In the parking lot, Dordrich gallantly opens the door for me and I sink into the comfortable seat of his Rolls Royce. When he then gets behind the wheel, he looks at me again. Unexpectedly he bent, kissing my lips, which provokes my anger. I look at him admonishingly with an icy look, but then keep silent. At a leisurely pace we drive to an exquisite restaurant. As if I belong to him, he puts a hand around my waist as we step inside. I take a deep breath, this is going to be a hellish undertaking to get him off me. But my biggest concern is Aziel, if he sees us like this, he would sometimes draw the wrong conclusion.
We are led to a private room with its own waitress. As before, he orders for me, he still knows exactly what I love most. “Dordrich, I have agreed to this meeting to break the ice between us. We had a beautiful relationship, but I want you to accept that it is over and we have to move on with our lives. Let's remain business partners”, I suggest. He takes my hands. “How can I be your business partner if I constantly think of you, want to be with you? I can't imagine you throwing everything we had away so easily. You loved me, never had enough of sex with me. We can have that again, Princess”, he asks softly.
This is it, I’m really done!
I open my mouth to reveal to him that we have a son and I, therefore, want to stay on speaking terms with him. If things were different I would never have had any contact with him again, also traded the shares of Fellogan Holding a long time ago.
But I don't get the chance to speak out.
My mouth is still half-open when suddenly the door of the private room bangs open. Some security guards try to stop the intruder, but she rages like a tiger.
Elena Fellogan!
She stands before us with a beet-red face. “Loraine, as soon as you land in New York, you're on my man again, you horny bitch! Couldn't find one for yourself in your lair? You are back after fleeing the country like a dog with your tail between your legs, but come back to continue your horrific activities, you witch,” she screams into the room. I look at her indifferently, I have the idea that she likes public drama and attention. Although she looks high class, she has the attitude of a street girl.
“Elena”, I acknowledge her bored. “You haven't changed a bit. Still a screamer, with no level”. She lifts her hand, clearly intending to slap me in the face, but I hold her hand firmly in the air. A tight twist of her arm and she moans in pain. Dordrich jumps up and takes his wife by the arm. “Elena, is this the way to behave? Please go home, I'll call you as soon as I'm done here. Stop the drama, you know I hate it," he says firmly.
“Yes, Dordrich, you go after her like a bitch in heat. Our son passed away just six months ago and you are already chasing your mistress. Where are your manners now?” she screams. I don't want to get involved in this affair between husband and wife. I grab my phone and text my fiancé the address to get me. While the couple is still hustling with each other, I sneak out, out of the restaurant. I walk into the large parking lot to get some fresh air and see Aziel's car already arriving. I increase my stride and he stops right in front of me. Before he can get out, I open the door and fall into the passenger seat. “Let's get out of here quickly. The Fellogan family is at odds and we don't want to be associated with it."
He gives me a quick kiss and drives away. When he has parked the car in the garage, he comes to me and carries me into the house.
Aziel is the best...
