****AUTHORESS’s POV***
As soon as the door shut,Noona opened her eyes, tears streamed down her cheeks.
She pressed her lips tightly and pulled the duvet off her body.
She heard every conversation about her on the phone. Nevertheless she brushed off the tears off her chin and cheeks walked into the bathroom and took her bath.

This will be the fifth time Dan has glanced at his wrist watch waiting for her at the bar.
“A glass more please”.
He told the bartende, who nodded and brought a glass after a few minutes. Just then he sighted Noona walking down the stairs.
He forced a smile and went to her.
“Good morning my Queen”.
He pecked her on both cheeks and took her hand. Noona couldn’t help it, she was never good at acting, she tried so much to pretend to be happy but her face was still pale and her eyes clouded with tears.
Dan walked her out of the building and opened the door for her, she coldly entered without saying a word.
Daniel noticed that coldness and thought maybe she regretted last night. Could it be that she said it all because she was drunk?
“So.. where are we going?”
He started a conversation.
“Bells hotel please”.
Did she just say please? That’s new, how can someone turn into a different character over night.
“If there is anything wrong, you can tell me, you know. I mean we just got out of the same room this morning”he persuaded her.
She shook her head and looked out of the window.
Daniel was not satisfied but not because care about her feelings or whatever not even a bit but something must have happened and if she keep on like this then his plans might not work out.
“Look I am sorry about last night, I shouldn’t have done it”.
“I am very aware of what I asked Daniel, so please I am an adult who wanted it don’t act like you abused me”she replied calmly.
He sighed a bit relieved, he stole a glance at her through the front mirror. Her tears kept flowing down her cheeks.
“So do you want to meet up another day? It will help you heal from that cheat remember”.
Her big wet glistening hazel eyes stabbed him, Daniel felt goosebumps of guilt all over him, he had to avoid eye contact.
“I think going back to the states is better”she said softly, never thought she could be this calm.
Going back to the states? Wow! That worked faster than he thought, but why the sudden change of heart, i just hope she is not planning on something without me, he thought out loud.
“Very well, Ma’am”.
He replied and stepped on the gear.
They got to her location where he will hand over to her personal driver and her personal guards.
“I will call you”.
Dan said to her and watched her enter the car while her driver got back into the car and they drove off.
I closed my eyes tightly and sighed:
***VAL’S POV***
The next day at the company, I walked into the company, the room was filled with laughter, actually mocking laughter perhaps from what happened the last time I got slapped and disgraced by Noona. I walked quietly to my desk and said my prayers. Resisting every urge that comes to my head to put on my ring.
I don’t want them to know just yet or I did be tagged by a husband snatcher because of Noona.
The lunch break was over,I resumed my work and suddenly the announcement speaker made some mic testing noise.
“Please Ms Valerie you are needed in my office”.
I bit my lips,that silly frog why is he announcing it.
He kept saying it ,I was so embarrassed, he never used that to call anyone and now he will make them suspicious.
I walked towards his office,his secretary gave me some looks,I ignored her and her detective eyes and went into the office.
As soon as the door was shut ,I frowned at him, he had his two legs on the table about to continue his announcement when he saw me and flashed his dimples.
He got up from the seat and walked to me.
“Are you being serious now?”
I put both hands on my waist,elbows pointing sideways.
He giggled and came to wrap his hand around my waist.
Planted kisses on my neck,and proceeded to kiss all over my face.
“I was missing you,I love you baby”he said in a whisper.
Then he bent to my height and held my face up looking straight to my eyeballs, I was still pouting annoyingly at him.
"You love me too right,don't be afraid just say it, please,you love me too right?"
“Is that why you called me, baby? I was busy with some important work!”I snapped at him.
“Who cares!”
He snapped.
“The company cares”.
“I own the company and I am saying ,fuck the company I want to be with you!”.
