'What the hell do you want from me? Can you just go away?" Rina asked in frustration and Sapphire chuckled.
'No, I can't just go, I would like to present this file to you," she said and Mira stared at her as she removed a file from behind her and dropped it on the table.
'What is this?" Mira asked with a mouthful of food, while staring at the file in curiosity.
'Why don't you check it?" Sapphire asked and the lady stared at her suspiciously before taking the file, she flipped through its pages and her eyes widened in surprise when she saw the file it was.
'This is….." she said and stared up at Sapphire.
'That is the file you are looking for, found it in your senior's drawer hidden under a mountain of files," Sapphire replied.
'Why would she hide it?"
'Because Oliver told her to do so, I think that he is ready to get rid of you but he wants you to be penniless when he is done, I know you won't ask me why because we both know that he is cruel,"
' I guessed as much." Mira said dryly. 'Why did you give it to me?"
'Because you are the one who was looking for it?" She asked and Mira rolled her eyes at her. 'You can decide what to do with it, you can decide to give it to them or hold on to it and get the hell out of this company,"
'I am not getting out of this damn place, I have to get back at the man who made me waste three years of my life,"
'Do you want me to help? Do you want to join hands with me, we both have the same type of interest,"
'Seriously?" Mira asked with a scoff and Sapphire bobbed her head. 'You are unbelievable," she told her with disbelief evident in her voice.
'What have you got on Oliver?" Sapphire whispered, moving closer to her.
'Gold," she replied with an evil smirk.
—--------------------
The day had been busy, Oliver gave the orders that the launching of the new products would be done in four days so everyone was going up and down, trying to do their own job.
Even the executives that Oliver employed because of their background had something to do, even though it only consisted of urging others to do things on time and meeting with people.
'Gods, I can't believe that we have to work overtime because of this," Craig groaned as he stood up from the chair, he was done for the day.
'To think that we would not be compensated," Katie said, packing up her stuff.
'That is too early to say, how about we go to a club to have a drink?" Candy asked and Craig nodded his head.
'That would take the stress off my shoulder, I could use a drink or two," Katie said and Candy turned to Sapphire.
'You are coming with us right?" Candy asked Jace, that was the name of the quiet guy they worked with, he just stared at Candy before turning to pack his table, Candy rolled his eyes at him.
'Rude!" She muttered. 'What about you Sapphire? Would you come with us?"
'No one can ever say no to a good drink," Sapphire said with a wide grin and Katie rolled her eyes at her silliness.
They all went out of the place and entered the elevator, then went to the lobby and were soon out of the company. Sapphire noticed Jace going in the same direction as them.
'Is this the way to your house?" She whispered to him and he shook his head.
'I am going to have a drink with you," he said directly to her and Sapphire raised a brow.
Was the guy flirting with her? Too bad if he was, she already has a husband, a super possessive and good one at that.
'I thought you said that you were not coming," Katie said and Jace turned to her.
'I never said anything, you were the one that assumed," he replied, Craig and Candy were chatting in front of them not paying any mind to their business.
Jace turned to start talking to Sapphire despite Katie's attempt to talk to him which made the woman glared at her intensely.
They got to the club and he made it more visible that he was flirting with her and Sapphire knew that she had to stop him. He is a good person who is just like her out of his innocent heart, she shouldn't let it nurture too far.
'So what do you think, should I get something for you,"
'Jace, I am engaged," she told him curtly and he was amused to stare at her.
'That doesn't mean that I have to stop talking to you, it doesn't mean that I can't buy you a drink,"
'Why don't you look around and see the person who likes you,"
'I don't like Katie, it is you that I like," he told her and went away, Candy came to drag her to the table and made her drink a lot of beers, not too much but enough to make her tipsy.
She pretended to be drunk in order to fuel her disguise of the nerd she had in the company and intentionally said some gibberish.
Jace took her out when it was time to go home, he told the rest that he would find a taxi for her, so they let him hold her, while they stood beside them, waiting for their ride, none of them wanted to drink while drunk.
They stood there, waiting for a taxi when a McLaren parked in front of them, Sapphire immediately knew that it was Alexander.
Craig let out a whistle as he kept staring at the car with googly eyes.
'Damn, who owns this shit?" He said.
'Why? Is it that expensive?" Katie asked and Candy also stared at him with a big question mark on her face.
'It is the shit," Craig said, Jace also kept staring at it.
Alexander came down from the car and his eyes narrowed on Jace's hand which was wrapped around Sapphire and he bit his lips.
'Where the fuck did this Adonis came from?" Candy asked and Katie nodded, staring at the man with wide eyes. Sapphire felt proud that he was her husband.
‘Take that bitches,' she said, internally.
He moved to them and snatched Sapphire from Jace which made the man step forward.
'Who the hell are you?" He asked but Alexander ignored him, turning to stare into Sapphire's eyes. 'Are you…" he said and Sapphire quickly cut him off before he ruined his future with his mouth.
'This is my fiance, Alexander," she introduced, giggling and there were gasps from the rest.
