Chapter 38 Harper : 36 55 vouchers I should've known it wasn't over when Tiffany's efforts to further expose me during Maddox's birthday had failed . What I didn't expect was how she had decided to strike back . It turned out the company I worked for , DataSphere Solutions , was one of the companies that belonged to Maddox and she used that to her advantage . She had made another post and this time , it was aimed at exposing the fact that I was sleeping with the boss and it I had lots of people talking about it . " I never say this enough , but my brother , Maddox Aldridge , was destined to be a leader . Just look at him , running several companies at the same time . Honestly , it wouldn't be possible without his most loyal employee , Harper Moore . She's always by his side in his office and even in his bedroom . That's some constant dedication right there ! " I was so shocked by it that I constantly paced while on the phone with Maddox after reading the post . " I've been working for you all along ? " I asked . He sighed . " Not exactly . " " What's that supposed to mean ? " I stopped in my tracks . " When did you join the company ? " " Three months ago . When will this come to an end ? " " Sleeping with me definitely doesn't help , " he said casually . I shook my head with disapproval like he could see me . " You sound like you're finding humor in this . " " Right now , I am . You and I have never met or fucked in an office " " That's what grabbed your attention ? How did she find out where I work ? I only told Grayson and then ... " I trailed off at the realization . " There it is , " he said from the other end of the line . I huffed , taking a seat . " In what context would he even tell her about where I work ? " " You're asking the wrong person ." " What I don't understand is when I first mentioned DataSphere Solutions to Grayson , he never said anything about you being the CEO ... unless he didn't know . " He chuckled . " I like it when you show me how smart you are sometimes . Let me guess , you're worried that this might affect your job , but here's what you're going to do . Relax your pretty ass while I take care of this ." 16:04 Tue , Sep 16 Chapter 38 My eyes narrowed . " Why do you sound like you have the perfect solution to this ? " " That's because I do . " He sounded confident . 36 55 vouchers As soon as the call came to an end , I dropped my head hard onto my pillow , wondering what he was going to do about it . He sounded too calm . I knew I shouldn't have done it , but I checked Tiffany's post again and it had everyone talking , others even confirming that I was really sleeping with Maddox Aldridge because apart from the photos and videos , they'd seen me at the party going upstairs with him . How could he possibly fix that ? I got on the phone with Ella and Zoey and they were so worried about me that they even wanted to cancel their date with the Barclay twins , but I wasn't going to let them . While it was too soon to judge , things seemed to be going well for them and I wanted them to enjoy it while it lasted . All I could do was wait for Maddox and I hated the way I felt helpless . Grayson On the day Harper had told me the company she worked for , I had no idea it belonged to Maddox . I'd casually told Tiffany about it a few days ago . She could've told me that her brother owned it , but why would she ? It was the perfect set up for her to strike back . Not only was I fuming that she'd gone to such lengths to expose Harper , it was also because we had talked about that and yet she was still doing the same old thing . I was on my way back from the office . Good thing I wasn't driving myself . Otherwise , I would've crashed into something . I called Tiffany several times , but she didn't pick up , like she knew what I was going to ask her . I sent her several messages , not even getting a single reply . The constant back - and - forth , I couldn't take it anymore . While I didn't like the fact that Harper was fucking Maddox , the last thing I wanted was for her to be exposed like that no matter how much I now hated the guy . I could only imagine what she was going through and wanted to check up on her , so I called and when she picked up , she sounded so calm . " Hey . " I furrowed my eyebrows . " Hey , you okay ? " " Yeah , I'm good . " She was chewing something . " Have you seen the post ? " She swallowed . " Yup ." 16:04 Tue , Sep 16 Chapter 38 " Sooo ... " : She forced a chuckle . " Sooo what ? " " Do you know how much that's a bad look for you ? " " I know , but Maddox told me he'll take care of it . " " Maddox ... " My jaw clenched . " Yeah . " " Is that why you sound so unbothered ? " " All I can do is wait . " : I sighed . " I actually thought you'd jump in the comments or something ." " No need . He told me to wait . " " And you listened ." I shut my eyes tightly . " He made it so easy to listen to him . Honestly , I'm really tired of all this ." " I actually spoke to Tiffany about everything and I thought she was done , but I guess not . " 36 E55 vouchers She scoffed . " You're so gullible that you listen to everything Tiffany says . That's how blind you are . Did you honestly think she was going to let this go ? " " I'll talk to her and by the time I'm done with her , she definitely won't do something like this ever again . " " Look ... " she trailed off like she didn't believe me . " There have been too many times where I've held on to the hope that you'll do something and well , you did nothing . That's why I'm not getting my hopes up this time as well . " I gave her a reassuring smile like she could see me . " Things are going to be different this time . Just trust me . " It bothered me that Harper thought so little of me when it came to Tiffany and I hated how right she was . When I finally made it home , I headed straight upstairs after finding out from the butler that she was in the bedroom . I was ready to lash out at her , but when I opened the bedroom door , I stopped in my tracks with wide eyes at the pillows all over the floor . She was on the edge of the bed , breathing hard with her head low . " What happened here ? " I closed the door behind me . " This isn't happening ! " Her voice was quiet as she rocked back and forth . " What are you talking about ? " 16:04 Tue , Sep 16 Chapter 38 36 E55 vouchers She pushed her hair back so hard that I thought she'd pull it out . " How the fuck did I not know about this ? I had a perfect plan and Maddox fucking ruined everything ! " My jaw clenched . " That's exactly what I wanted to talk to you about . You lied to me . " " He shouldn't have gotten involved . " Her voice was quiet but filled with rage . " Did you hear what I said ? " I sat next to her . She instantly rose to her feet , kicking a pillow with a loud grunt . " Shit ! I hate him ! " I still couldn't get an answer out of her no matter how many times I asked her to explain to me what was going on . It was only when Harper sent me a text that I no longer bothered to get answers from Tiffany . " Did you see it ? " " See what ? " I replied . " Maddox took care of it ." " He did ? How ? " " Just check his comment onTiffany's post . " Quickly , I took out my phone and straight to Tiffany's page . I had to scroll for quite some time to get to Maddox's comment . " Appreciate the family support , Tiffany . Just one small correction , Harper Moore isn't my employee . She never was . I sold the company four months ago and that's before she joined . I must admit that I admire your effort to talk about something you don't know . " The replies under his comment were of everyone quickly turning on Tiffany . " Imagine being corrected in public by your own brother . So embarassing ! " one girl said . I read a few more of them , then set my phone aside and began to take off my shirt while looking at her . " So this is why you're so upset . I should have known you were lying to me when you told me you were done with this . " She rolled her eyes dismissively . " That doesn't matter right now . Can't you see that I feel betrayed ? Why didn't he say anything when he sold DataSphere Solutions ? " With the necktie in my hand , I smacked my lips , getting up from the bed . " You know what ? That's it . " My voice was quiet but still loud enough for her to hear me . As I approached the door , she rushed to me , her voice now filled with panic as she held onto my arm . 16:04 Tue , Sep 16 Chapter 38 : " Babe , where are you going ? " : 36 E55 vouchers " This house is big enough for the two of us . I just want to be alone . " I didn't even look back at her . " I'm sorry . " " For what ? You always do as you please anyway ." My voice was a little harsh . She blocked the way , placing her hands on the sides of my face . " I promise that I'll change . " I scoffed . " Like I'm actually going to believe that . " I was about to pull her hands off of me when she said , " I really mean it this time and just to show you how serious I am , I no longer have any objections to you spending time with Harper on Friday ." My forehead creased . " Really ? " She smiled at how my voice sounded softer . " I know you were still going to see her anyway , but you need to know that is how I feel now . I just don't like seeing you so upset with me . I'm sorry , okay ? " She began to kiss my cheek , each kiss getting closer to my lips , I wanted to push her away and leave , but the softness of her ass when she guided my hand made me forget it all and I lifted her . While I wasn't fully convinced that she meant what she said , I was still glad she told me she had no problem with it . If only Harper knew all the things I was going to do to her on Friday . 田 Discover our latest featured short drama reel. Watch now and enjoy the story!
