sex-me boss.

The following Monday morning, after getting properly dressed, Olivia looked around hoping she hadn’t forgotten anything, but when her eyes fell on the box on her bedside table, she retrieved it and opened it. She picked up the ring lying inside and slipped it around her finger. It fit perfectly, as if it had been made to measure. She certainly didn’t want to walk in it, but after all, she figured she’d lose nothing by putting it on for just one day.

When she arrived at the company, she saw all the staff staring at her, or more precisely at her finger. She took a deep breath to get up her courage and entered the elevator.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

-Congratulations on your engagement, Miss.

She began to rack her brains to remember the day she’d gotten engaged, but she couldn’t find it at all. She looked at the man who had just told her that, and he smiled.

-The ring on your finger.

-Thank you, this business is so stressful that I often forget my life.

It was the only excuse she could come up with; frankly, what woman would dare forget that she was engaged, except her, who had never been engaged, even though everyone thought she had. When the elevator reached her floor, she got out and went straight to her office.

Turning on her computer, she saw that she had instructions from work for the day’s setting, which meant that Martin was there before her. She hoped he hadn’t taken Betty’s innuendo seriously, because she didn’t have the strength to explain.

Damon had been waiting for Olivia for an hour, but she hadn’t shown up at all. He’d told her the day before that this was part of her punishment, so he couldn’t understand why she’d decided to stay in his office. He wanted to see her, especially to check on something. Afraid that she might find his call suspicious, he decided to go through Martin, after all, he was her employee too.

Just as she thought she’d rested easy for the day, she heard a knock on her door and before she had time to speak, her visitor had already entered. She looked up to see that he was staring at her finger. There’s that damn ring again.

-I see your evening didn’t just end at the big boss’s, it continued. I never see you with jewelry and I guess you don’t like it, so if you decided to wear this ring, I guess it’s very important, congratulations on your engagement.

-Thank you hello Martin, so to what do I owe the honor of your visit?

-I guess Damon doesn’t know you’re engaged to someone else, since he wants to see you in his office. You could have warned him so he wouldn’t still think he was getting you into bed.

Olivia was hurt by what he was saying, but after all, if it was going to keep her boss away from her, it was going to be rather fortunate for her because of the confusion of feelings that was going on inside her. She wasn’t sure whether she liked her mysterious stranger or her boss. She was going to start by testing out what Maggie had told her, her reaction to the ring.

-If that was the only message, then I get it, and I think I’d like to be alone.

-Don’t be nervous, Olivia. I know your fiance broke your record because I know you wanted to bang the big boss too, but I’m still here and whether you’re engaged or not, it makes absolutely no difference.

She glared at him to stop talking nonsense. So he had no respect for others. She wasn’t even the least bit surprised, since she’d known him like this for a long time.

-And don’t forget, he wants you upstairs with all your day’s work. I think he’d like to be your babysitter or just start looking after someone else’s fiancee. Good luck, Olivia!

And that was the controversy this ring would create and for how long, she had no idea. She’d have to go upstairs first to avoid angering him, while hoping that he’d admit to her that the ring was his and that he’d been the one all along, even if she didn’t think that was possible under the circumstances.

When the elevator opened on her boss’s floor, she got out and walked to his door, but once there, she couldn’t make another move. She couldn’t knock because she didn’t know what would happen next.
