secretary natalie's sadness

Not daring to lift her head salem sat there quietly. right as a kind hearted older man was about to reach out to her, salem raised her head took a deep breath, and asked a waiter for a clean towel.

the young man brought it quickly and even offered to give her a free meal but salem gratefully declined and did her best to clean up the mess left behind by Alannas wrath.

The once comfortable atmosphere turned suffocating as the peoples stares ranged from pity to digust.

Salem was almost positive some of the people heard Alannas request. why else would they glare so disdainfully? once she was done salem hurriedly gathered her things and rushed outside. completely unaware of the plain woman in blue who took pictures of salems predicament with her phone.

Swiftly messaging her boss the plain woman couldn't help but envy salem.... sure she had just been humiliated in public but that was because of Alannas jealousy, no?

Natalie had been working for andrew for several years but just recently saw how far he would go for someone he loved. Andrew was never cruel to Alanna but he never gave her anything close to this attention.

Alanna was rich, pretty, and intelligent yet she was still thrown away for a beautiful woman who was only good at being a ballet dancer. with little to her name and no real education she didnt amount to much compared to Alanna. Still.. Salem beat her in the most important thing of all. Love.

Salem had Andrew's heart locked in a box and would probably never give away the key.

As a woman Natalie could sense Salem didnt even hate Alanna for what she did. if anything she felt sorry for her. it was all just too pitiful. the woman surrounded by wealth, power, and fame was actually the one who had nothing. a dull ache in her heart throbbed and natalie couldnt help but feel that one day her boss would regret it all.
