Charlie

I hit the bedroom floor with an almighty thud that radiated pain through the left side of my body. The room is spinning, and it takes me a bit to realise I'm not in my own bedroom.

I don't even remember falling asleep last night and as I stagger to my feet and see the now-empty bottle of whisky, on the nightstand I realise I must have passed out. Great choice Charlie, let's drink to forget her.

I can't forget her though, no matter how much alcohol I consume. She's still at the forefro

  • My Billionaire Boss’ Dirty Secret   61

    CharlieSo she is rejecting special treatment? Well, this will make it harder to get back into her good graces and win her over. I love a challenge though, it's what drew me to her in the first place and I believe that nothing easy is worth going after. Being in the same room as her is like being an alcoholic, returning from rehab and going to a bar. She is the one thing I crave and I want her so badly that it makes my dick twitch just gazing at her beauty but I can't have her. I'm tormented, just being this close to her, breathing in her intoxicating scent, wanting to unravel her braid and run my fingers through her golden, blonde hair. I haven't had sex in two months, my longest period of abstinence and seeing her again, looking every bit the Goddess I remember, has me pent up and frustrated. What makes it worse is that her anger towards me just turns me on more. Whenever she yells at me my brain reminds me of that night we had that huge fight because of Dimity, how phenomenal th

  • My Billionaire Boss’ Dirty Secret   60

    Once security has escorted Richard out and Jennifer has finalised the termination paperwork, it's just Charlie, Josh and me left in the boardroom. There's this awkward silence that lingers between the three of us. Josh keeps looking at me, then at Charlie as if willing one of us to speak but neither of us does. I have so much that I want to say to him, two months' worth of built-up anger, frustration and endless questions that plagued me but I'm not going first. “Well, I should get into the monthly reports,” Josh says, I know he's just making up an excuse to leave but I won't call him on it. “We can catch up later, maybe have lunch together?” Charlie suggests to Josh and me that we curse him in my head. Josh is my lunch buddy, how dare Charlie come back here and steal him away from me? “Sounds good, I'll send you a text,” he replies as he gets up. He puts his hand on my shoulder, a simple act of support to show me that he's still my friend too. My body tenses up the moment Josh

    I wrote my resignation letter while I ate my breakfast. I know I could file a sexual harassment claim against Richard but it would be his word against mine and I really don't want to drag this out. I decided that I’ll just take sick leave for my two-week notice period, allowing me time to search for another job. This is the part that I'm dreading, I haven't worked at More long and, without a reference from a previous employer, my chances of finding another marketing position are slim. I guess there's always The Fruit Barn to fall back on. Dad would hire me again but that would mean I'd have to explain to my parents why I quit, which would also lead to me having to confess that I broke up with Charlie. I know I'd have to tell them about the break-up eventually but for now I just didn't want to give them the satisfaction of knowing they were right about Charlie. I was hoping I would be able to put off telling them the truth until at least Christmas. Maybe my unemployment status will

    Charlie“Alright, talk,” I demand of Dr Fuckface once we have our drinks and are seated in a corner of the hotel bar. He takes a swig of his craft beer, leaving me to wonder if he's purposely dragging this out. What if he tells me she has moved on? She's gorgeous and would have a line-up of men who would love to ask her out. I swish the whisky around in my glass as I wait for him to get on with whatever he needs to tell me. My patients wearing thin.The bar is almost empty, apart from a group of girls who are seated in the middle. Their loud laughter as they browse the cocktail menu, reminds me of Nortica and her friends. “She knows you didn't cheat on her,” Benji says, cutting through the memory I was having of the night I suggested Nortica try a Sex on the Beach cocktail. “She knows because I provided her proof,” I huff, feeling like I'm on trial for a crime I never committed. “She wouldn't have believed me otherwise.”I'm still hurt that Nortica thought I would cheat on her t

    CharlieFor the past week, whenever I left the hotel, I felt like I was being watched. I'm not usually a paranoid guy but someone was following me around. It started when I made a quick dash to the grocery store. I wanted to start creating dishes to add to our winter package, but I knew the convenience store on the corner didn't carry all the ingredients I needed. I could have driven to my Brisbane office, used the ingredients they have on hand but I was still trying to fly under the radar. The last two months had been hard and I wasn't ready to face anyone. As I wandered the aisles, grabbing what I needed, I started to get the sensation of eyes on me. From there, wherever I went I would see the same woman, always in a big straw hat with giant sunglasses. At first, I thought it was just a coincidence but soon realised I was being followed. The problem was though, she wasn't doing anything that would be considered illegal and I didn't want to just come out and accuse a stranger of

  • My Billionaire Boss’ Dirty Secret   56

    The last 2 months have been the longest 8 weeks of my life. There have been days when I progress forward, where I can go hours without thinking about him but then one small reminder would send me flying backwards. I longed to be myself again, who I was before I met him but I so realised, throughout my painful journey that I liked who I had become while I was with him. My memories of him didn't always make me sad, as they had in the beginning. Some memories made me smile and even laugh. I missed him but was also angry at him at the same time. I played out thousands of scenarios in my mind of what I would do if he came back. In some, I'd be icy cold, make him regret what he did but in others, I'd kiss him and take him back. The world moved on around me. Tess and Benji started dating. Bailey asked the bartender Pete out. Gwen and I often caught up, and she would share her wedding plans with me. Each day that passed I healed and missed him less. This week I started putting effort back
