Chapter 3

Two months later…

I resumed my work at the office on Jada's last day.

Jason wasn't happy that Jada was resigning, but he could do nothing to stop her. Jada's mind was made up.

"We will miss you," I said to her as I hugged her.

"I will miss you too. Make sure to watch out for Jason because he is one of a kind."

"Of course, I will," I released her.

"I will bring the files that I'm working on here before I leave."

"Okay." She walked out of my office, and I headed to Jason's office.

Jason wanted me to talk Jada out of resigning, but I didn't. He was on a call when I stepped in, so I decided to come back later.

"I will talk to you later," Jason said to the person he was speaking to and hung up the phone. "So, what did she say?"

"Her mind is made up, Jason. Let her go. I didn't talk to her about it."

Jason sighed and looked at me worriedly. "She's the only person that I trust after you."

"The job interview is tomorrow, and I'm sure that you will recruit someone as good as her before the end of the day."

He nodded, and I walked out of his office to start my day.

Some minutes later, someone came inside my office, and I looked up from the file that I was going through.

"Hey Cynthia," I said and got out of my seat to give her a hug.

"You didn't tell me that you were coming back today."

"It wasn't planned."

"It's nice to have you here again."

"Thank you."

She scanned my office for almost a minute before asking, "And where is Maxwell?"

"Home with his nanny."

"Okay. I have to go now."

"Okay. We will meet at lunch."

"That is if your hot husband lets you go. That man can't do anything without you."

"Shh," I whispered to her, "he's in the next office."

"It's not a secret."

Jada came in at that moment with two boxes filled with files and dropped them in a corner.

"I'll be expecting you at lunch," Cynthia shouted as she walked out of the office.

"Everything is here," Jada said while pointing at the boxes.

"Okay, Jada. Thank you."

"You're welcome."

I went back to the file that I was working on until it was lunch break.

My phone rang; it was Cynthia, and I picked it up.

"Hello," she said.

"Hello," I replied.

"Are you still coming for lunch?"

"Yeah, wait for—"

A hand reached out for my phone, and I fell out of my chair in surprise.

"She is not coming," a familiar voice said, and I looked up to see Jason holding my phone.

I got up angrily and took my phone from him, "This is no longer funny."

"It is. Your anger turns me on wifey," Jason smirked and tried to kiss me, but I moved away from him.

"I'm sorry," he said when he realized that I was really mad at him, "I just wanted you to spend your lunch break with me."

"It's okay."

"Kiss me if you mean it."

I moved to him and kissed him deeply until he moaned into my mouth, "I love you, Lexi."

"I love you too."

Jada walked in on us, kissing and apologized before running off.

Jason released me and rushed after her,

"Jada," he called, "What do you want?"

"I just wanted to drop the keys," she replied.

"Okay," he said slowly and walked back to his office without saying another word. He thought Jada had changed her mind.

"Jason is mad at me," Jada said when she came inside my office.

"Yeah, he is," I told her, "You're one of the few people that he trusts."

She smiled and looked at me. "I know, but I just have to move on."

"I wish you all the best."

She dropped the keys. "And you too."

She passed through the adjoining door to Jason's office, said goodbye, and left.

After she left, I walked into Jason's office to see him pouring himself a glass of wine.

"Wine?" he asked.

"Yeah," I replied as I was walking to one of the chairs facing him.

He handed me a glass of wine and walked to his seat.

"I know why she's leaving," he said as he took a sip out of his wine.

I raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why?"

"Because she loves me," he replied with a shrug.

Wow, so Jason knew all along that Jada loves him, I thought.

"So, you knew?"

"I'm not blind. I've known since the first day I met her. She was the one I planned to marry before I met you. But then you showed up, and I couldn't get enough of you." He thought about something and then asked, "And how did you know?"

"She told me herself." I smiled at the memory. "She threatened me that she was going to hurt me if I ever hurt you again."

"Sounds like her. When was that?"

"When you brought me back here."

"Those are days that I want to forget forever," Jason said sadly.

"I'm sorry for causing you so much pain."

"It's in the past. I know you will never leave me again." He gave me an intense look and said, "Or will you?"

I shook my head and slowly walked to him. "Never," I replied and gulped down the rest of my wine.

Jason's eyes lit up when he realized what I was up to, and he also gulped down the rest of his wine.

"Are you here to seduce me, secretary?" he asked lustfully. I pulled up my skirt, revealing my pantsless pussy, and slowly sat down on his table with my legs spread open in front of him.

"Do I turn you on, Mr. CEO?"

"Always," he replied hungrily while staring at my pussy. "I don't mind eating this for lunch," he said and buried his face in my pussy.
