Chapter 10

THE CHEATER!

"Pain... it changes people.

It makes them trust less, over think more and shut people out."

'So try to erase your pain, try to trust people , try to less overthinking and shut those people who are not worthy in your life but not them who want to be with you in your worst time.

And the pain goes when you have someone whom you trust.'

Rose POV..

Sighing i turn on shower, cold water slowly hitting my body making me relax. I clean my body and walk out after turning off the shower, I wrap myself in a towel. I stare at my reflection in mirror. Nothing.

The girl who used to be full of joy, the girl who is funny, the girl who has everyone to love are nowhere to be seen. Closing my eyes, taking a deep breath i put my clothes and walk out. Unplugging my phone i grab my wallet to check I have enough money. I put it inside my bag and walk out my apartment and locked my door.

I walk to nearest cafe and order americano, after taking my order I hailed a cap to zyan company and sat inside. I reach there, I paid my ride . its half pass nine, so i take my time to head the building entrance and headed to reception area.

"Hello, I am here to meet mr. Bruce". I tell her. She look at me up and down and made a disgusting look ,properly judging my outfit. What's wrong with her did i ask her to give me her dress.

" do you have appointment" she ask uninterested.

"Yes, its ms. Smith" I tell her and she checked in her computer.

" I don't think so, you are not in the list" she replied looking at me with same look.

"Well check again, I got a message from mr. Bruce and he want me to meet him" I said folding my arms.

She scoffed, tell me why mr. Bruce want to meet a girl like you" she said motioning with her pointer finger at me.

"Why don't you ask him, oh maybe he didn't give a shit about you" I deadpanned giving her my best evil smirk.

"You-- she was cut of by someone. "What is happening there" that someone ask and I look at him. He is the same person at bar, zyan friend.

"Good morning sir, this woman came asking to meet mr. Bruce but she doesn't have appointment and making a fuss here" she answer his question, innocently Another bitch. I thought.

"Oh hey! Rose, what are you doing here" he ask me when he saw me. "Hello colt" I greet him.

"Are you here to meet zyan" he ask, "yes, but i can't because of some issue" I replied .

"What issues" he ask. " oh its nothing zyan ask me to meet him and claire told me I can't" I reply giving her fake smile.

"Oh come with me, i am also here to meet him" he said and look at receptionist .

"claire, whenever ms. Smith come you take her directly to mr. Bruce office, she is your new boss" he order her and walk out with me following him, I give a side glance at her her eyes wide as she gaped. I smile internally.

He lead me to his office which is in top floor, elevator doors open and we walk out and head straight to his office room,his secretary acknowledge us and nodded her head to him, giving me a slight glance. He barge into his office and I follow him.

"Hey man ro-- he stopped saying anything, the sight in front of me make both of us shocked. Here mr. Bruce sitting in his chair, and a girl in a tight red dress sat on his lap, eating his face. zyan stood hurriedly, making the girl fall in a procces. i quikly recover myself and make my face emotionless.

" out" zyan shout at her in anger and she leave hurriedly shuddering with fear.

"ah i should take my leave" colt said and leave me and him alone. closing his eyes shut, he sigh. "you are a-- i didn't let him finish his word. " what do you want to tell me" i ask coming straight to the point. he stare me for a while then nodded his head.

" sit" he said and sat on his chair and i did the same.

"so what you want to tell me" i repeat my question making myself comfortable.

" he eyes me than shook his head showing me his poker face, " well there is changes in wedding" he start and i nod for him to continue. " we're going to get married in two days"he said in his monotone.

raising my brows at him " may i ask why" my tone has serious voice.

" there is some thing which doesn't concern you" she said, " well let me remind you it involve me so i think it concern me" i spat but not showing anger in my voice.

"i don't think it is, i just want to know and that's all" he said in stern voice, leaning back on his chair.

" well thanks for the information, but to your loss , i am not doing that" i said plainly looking straight in his eyes.

" i am not suggesting rose" he said not breaking eye contact.

"i would appreciate if you suggest first" i said and rose from my seat." but let me tell you, i don't take orders and the wedding is happening at previous date we select" i said and head to the door and open it but turn to face a little.

"And next time, you do please lock your door, mr. bruce" with that i walk out not giving him a chance to say anything. outside i met colt who was leaning against the wall near the elevator. he gave me a sympathetic look, i gave him my bright smile and enter inside, punching a button of ground floor.

i book a cab to black corporation ( i forgot to tell you i still work there). once i was there , i head first to meet mr. Black to greet him and do some work. My phone buzz telling me there is message. I unlock my phone, it was from the him, I laugh a little at his name. I open it and read his message.

" we need to talk". I roll my eyes. I type a reply.

" I am busy mr. Bruce, we'll talk when I am free"

i put my phone back. In a second he reply but I didn't open it. I try to focus myself in work. But it always get distracted because of the my phone who's continuously ringing. I sigh and switch off my phone and throw myself in work.

in lunch time i meet hailey and told her everything, kyden was nowhere , so it was just us. soon time passes and I am glad that he didn't show up at company, but little did I wish he come , sighing i bid bye to mr. Black and hailey, heading straight to my home want to rest and try to forget the today's incident. I enter my apartment and took a quick shower, putting on my PJ'm.

I stroll in my kitchen finding something to eat. Struggling for an minutes, I find some instant noodles I hurriedly made it when it was done, I put it in my coffee table and grab a coke and chips packet (weird combination i get it), I put a movie and sat on my couch making myself comfortable, ready to dig in .

I was about to put it inside my mouth but the bell rang, I curse whoever disturb me. First him and now whoever came can't a woman have her food peacefully. I furiously open my door ready to snap but stop.
