Chapter 14 Pitch Black

Kelly’s POV

I was having a conversation with Chris but my mind kept on wandering to Pierce’s place. I couldn’t help but glance in his direction and every time I did, I’d always catch him looking at me as if he was waiting for me to look at him. I don’t understand him anymore.

He asked for a divorce because his first love is back and he still loves her, didn't he?

“I’m really sorry about the bouquet, Kelly. I didn’t know it would create a misunderstanding.”

I gave Chris an awkward smile. “It’s okay. I just hope we can clarify our relationship next time because, you know, it will create a misunderstanding.”

He smiled apologetically. “If only I could explain it to every employee in your company.”

“Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention, please? Good evening…”

Our conversation was interrupted when my assistant went up to the mini-stage and greeted everyone. She’s the one in charge to be the host for tonight’s party.
