Chapter 37: Chapter 37

Beatrice POV

When Storm re-entered his office, I followed his orders. That woman is annoying, I know she's an ex and they had a relationship before but she's acting as if I get what she has. She chooses to leave Storm so it's not my problem anymore.

After making the coffee, I immediately followed to my boss's office because I knew he was not in a good mood again because of what happened. He doesn't want any trouble or issue, especially here in the company.

When I got inside I saw him typing on his laptop. "Here's your coffee," I said and placed what I was carrying on the table next to the sofa.

"Stay there, I'll just finish this," he said, so I just sat down first.

Later he stood up and walked towards me. "Why did you do that?" he asked.

I looked at him when he sat next to me. "What do you mean?" I asked.

"You know what it means Bea, why did you slap Kaye?"

"You know that she slaps me first so I did the same. I am doing my job," my defense.

"I know, but I hope you didn't do that to her so the conversation wouldn't go on."

"And what do you want me to do? To let her trample my personality like that? I know we're not on the same level but I have the right to defend myself."  I said.

He sighed. "Baby, I'm not saying that what you did was wrong, what I'm saying is that you should have just let her go because no matter what she says, you know that it's not true,"

"I know that, I just can't help but slap that woman. Sorry if I make a scene here in your office, I know you don't like that thing. Her behavior is just really annoying. She's gorgeous but she is a bitch," I said.

He laughed. "She wasn't like that before, she was kind. But in the past year, I can't say if her behavior has changed or not,"

"She wants you back," I promise weakly.

He pulled me and hugged me tightly. "I don't want her in my life anymore, maybe we were together for a long time but it will remain all of it in the past. I'm okay now, I haven't fully forgiven her for what she did but she explained her side already and that's enough for me,"

"Baby I think you two need to have some closure." my suggestion.

"In the right time baby, right now she needs to accept that we are over. I also don't want to make it difficult and hurt her because she has also been a part of my life and she helped me a lot.  I once loved her so I want her to be happy and I know she will find someone better than me,"

I nodded because I knew Storm had a point, I didn't know what she was feeling because I wasn't in the situation. "Even though I'm annoyed with your ex, I understand her because she still loves you. And I'm also hoping that she will find her happiness," I said.

"Do I have a scheduled meeting today?" he asked.

I shook my head. "No, but tomorrow morning you have a meeting with the investors," I answered him.

"Are you done with your work?"

"Not yet, but I'll finish it. Why?" I asked him.

"We will be having dinner with Kiara and Nigel,"

I nodded. "Aren't those two getting married yet?" I asked him.

"They are planning but not yet, maybe after 2 years,"

"They are so perfect for each other," I said.

I saw a smile on his lips. "I'm so happy for both of them because they found each other. Even though my sister is a brat, my best friend handles her well,"

I hit him lightly on his shoulder. "You're so mean to Kiara,"

"Why? What I'm saying is true, I don't know where she got her behavior because Mommy isn't like that." he even laughed when he said that.

I can't help but smile because of what I see in Storm. Now I can say that he is happy and he has accepted the loss of her parents. Before, he could hardly mention them without feeling sad or hurt, but now he can mention them with a smile.

"If that's the case, where did you get your behavior? You're arrogant," I exclaimed.

"What are you saying? Me, arrogant?  I'm kind,"

"Excuse me? You're always grumpy. I think you inherit that from your father. I'm sure your mom is stressed," I tease him.

"So are you saying that Mom is stressed with Dad?"

"Maybe?" I said while laughing. After that, I stood up and fixed my clothes. "Where are you going?" he asked me.

"I'm going back to my table to finish my work of course, " I answered him.

"You can finish it tomorrow,"

"Stop it, Mr. Alcantara! I'll finish this, work is work remember?" I said.

"Why Mrs. Alcantara? Don't you want me to spoil you?" I suddenly blushed when I heard him call me.

"Oh shut up, baby," I said and walked towards the door, I even heard him laugh before I finally went out.
