Victoria’s POV
We cleaned up, when Linda came back in. I didn’t miss the smile she threw me, she mouthed a few words. I think I just made a friend at work.
“I can cancel this” Kelvin says.
“No! I can’t keep avoiding him and I want you to give him a fair chance.” I say.
Just because I hate Dalton for what he did to me doesn’t mean I will destroy his career and his life, I know I am a lot better than that and dad didn’t bring me up that way. I know how someone’s action can ruin a life I know for a fact I won’t do that to anyone.
I know Kelvin never allows personal reasons to affect his professional deals that is why he overlooked whatever happened that morning.
I stood beside Kelvin when I heard the door open, Dalton walked in with her, I didn’t know she would be here.
“Knight.” Dalton smiles, I throw him a fake smile for him.
“ You brought your whore with you.” Kelvin asks bitterly.
“Don’t be modest, this is my new personal assistant.”
Did he bring her here as a joke, because I am sleeping with my boss, I hope he didn’t because I won’t like it.
“Have a seat and we can start.” I say in a firm voice, he gives me a smile before take a seat beside me and Sara gave me a glare before taking a seat beside her man.
I guess they are not fighting anymore.
It started off good until I felt a hand going up my skirt, I turned and looked at Dalton who kept a straight face pretending to be focusing on the presentation given by Sara.
I tried to take his hand off me but he had a firm grip on it, a smile appeared on my face when I had an idea. I took a pen and stabbed his hand.
He lets out a loud curse, everyone’s attention goes to us.
“Your insane assistant stabbed me.” Dalton yells.
“What is wrong with you? She can’t treat your associates like this.” Sara says and I roll my eyes.
“What happened?.” Kelvin asked just like I knew he would.
“He- she is going to fabricate some story.” Dalton interrupts me.
“Let her speak.” Kelvin ordered.
I explained to him what happened, his eyes changed, I could sense the deadly aura that surrounded him, I quickly hold his hand stopping him from making any stupid decisions.
If he touches Dalton, he could get sued for assault.
“Leave.” He says, I can see much he is trying to control himself, the last man that touched me was found dead in the woods.
“You can’t do that, I will sue her for stabbing me.”
“I will like to see you try, I will bring you to the streets. You know I am capable of doing that, take your fucking whore out of my office and you can kiss all my investments away, tell your father I have redrawn my investments from his companies.”
“You can’t do that.” Dalton says.
“Watch me do it, Linda.”
“Already on it boss.”
I watched Dalton and Sara leave, I didn’t miss the words he mouthed while leaving.
“You will regret it.”
Fuck, I didn’t expect this to escalate.
“I’m sorry.” I whisper after they leave.
“It’s not your fault love, I’m sorry I scared you.”
“It’s fine, I’m glad you didn’t do anything stupid.”
“Yet.” He whispers, it was loud enough for me to hear.
After what happened Kelvin didn’t want to stay in the office anymore, we left. We went back home.
Home.
I have a home with the man I love.
“I don’t think you should work for me anymore.”
“What! Don’t tell me it’s because of what happened yesterday.”
“It’s not just that, it’s every other man that looks at you. Today it’s Dalton, tomorrow it could be another person and I didn’t think you would be able to stop me.”
I understood what he is saying, Kelvin is a possessive man but fuck I can’t just with a trophy girlfriend. I love working, it makes me happy.
“The way he looked at you, it made me so mad.” He says.
“Kelvin, you can’t stop men from looking at me, you can’t stop them from having those vile thoughts.”
I dont like it when women look at him but I cant help it, I cant stop him from working because of that.
“I can and I will.” He yells, he took me aback with his tone. He has never spoken to me in that way.
“Baby wait-“ He says.
It was already too late. I walked into the room locking the door from behind, I heard his numerous knocks but I gave heed to non. He can’t speak to me like that. I know he is upset, I know what happened today shouldn’t have happened but fuck. His tone scared me, for the first time I am afraid of him.
I know Kelvin will never hurt me, he would never do anything that will make me cry. I was lost in trance when I heard a pair of footsteps coming from the balcony.
I take the lamp on the side table walking closer to the balcony door, when it opened I didn’t bother looking before hitting the person with a lamp. I heard a series of familiar curses.
Fuck Kelvin
“ I am so sorry.” I whisper trying to touch his bleeding head. “How did you.”
“I jumped. I wanted to apologize, I should have never yelled. I’m sorry I scared you.” Despite what I did he still apologized to me, he didn’t get angry I broke a lamp on his head. He is bleeding on the floor but all he cared about his my forgiveness.
“You ever yell again- you can break as many lamps as you want on my head.” He says and I chuckle.
We have a wound to take care off.
