Chapter 76: Chapter 76

(Vivienne)

"Do you know how important that was to her...how can you be so careless", I watched as the man vented his anger on me. Monica was yelled at to leave and she left immediately. I noticed one thing. Victor had anger issues, he got angry very easily

There was no such thing as a perfect man because the man was something else

"Do you know how devastated she is…" the man said and I looked at him with a blank expression. For a second I thought he found out about Skylar being my daughter but it turned out it was about Skylar's school function. I was such a fool to forget about that

Damn it I completely forgot about that. I didn't even take the newsletter her principal gave me because of that mysterious call. This was bad. Victor was angry because our daughter was left out,

"Sir...I didn't mean to forget...I had…"

"Your job as a babysitter is to make sure you know exactly what's happening...you are failing me, Ms. Payton, "Victor said, cutting me off before I could say anything. I noticed he was addressing me by my last name. Whenever he did that it meant he was in a professional mood. Right at that moment, he was my boss, not my lover or anything, and looking at him scolding me as he did with his employees I was helpless

Even if I had to get angry, I didn't even know where to begin because he was right, I didn't do my job well. I was supposed to deliver the newsletter and prepare Skylar unfortunately I let my daughter down all because I was caught up in my problems

"You are fired, "the man said only then did I snap back to reality and I noticed he was now sitting in his chair

"What? Fired? You can't fire me well…"I was stunned by what he said. Did it get to the extent of firing me? He was ridiculous to think he would fire me from being Skylar's babysitter. I loved my job and he know that

"I don't want an employee I can't rely on...my daughter's affairs come first Ms. Payton...you are not capable," the man remarked in a serious professional voice as looked at me with a disdainful look. I was helpless as I stood staring at the man

"Vic you…"

"Mr. Ellison...I'm your boss, respect that"he corrected me while waving his hands in the air as if directing me and I was even more shocked. I came here to tell him the truth but it didn't seem like a good idea. He was in his businessman mood and saying anything would cost me a lot

"I have the right sir...you can't fire me because of one little mistake."It was too much, I made one little mistake and he was firing me. I guess Monica was the one who came to tell him the news. I wondered why she hated me to such an extent.

Why was she hell-bent on making my life miserable? It was fine when she was away but she was back in our lives. I was certain her mission was to create drama between Victor and me. To keep me away from Skylar

"So...is Mr. Ellison done venting?"I muttered and placed my purse on his desk. He stared at me with a confused expression but I ignored that and made my way around his desk to his side.

"Leave my office" the man murmured as he averted his eyes from me. Of course, I knew what he wanted.

"Are you sure you want me to leave?"I whispered as I ran my hand up to his thigh in a seductive way. He seemed uncomfortable with my presence, I pushed my way between his legs and half sat on the desk. My folded knee was an inch from his member, my hands rested on his shoulders and I pulled him closer

"M... Ms. Payton...I don't think…" the man mumbled, his voice was hoarse and strained, I could see his face getting flushed and I knew I had him. He could get angry all he wanted but at the end of the day,

I moved my hands to his neck and pulled him closer to me. "I thought Daddy was angry...is he not?"I whispered to his ear and teased him by biting his ear. I felt him hiss, he didn't dare touch me but I could feel him reacting to my touch "tell me...am I that bad" I proceeded to lick his ear seductively and the man moved his hand to my waist and gripped me tightly not just that but he unexpectedly pulled me to him so fast that I ended up sitting in his lap.

"You are playing with fire, little girl…" he murmured huskily, his deep voice roaring from his chest causing my back hair to rise as he traced his free hand up my neck and cupped my face.

Our eyes met and the fire burning in his was full of lust. I sat comfortably in his lap and held the sides of his face. I didn't do anything fun because his erection could be seen.

He was already hard and aching for me. I wanted to see his anger but no he was whipped as he unzipped my dress in slow motions as if he was a thief stealing something which was meant for him but he wasn't certain

"I'm sorry...I'll make it up to her"I muttered, brushing my parted lips on his cheek. He managed to unzip my dress halfway and slipped his cold hands inside my dress, causing a shiver to rush through my body as I drew even closer to him. His face was pressing against mine.

His mouth opened and searched for a spot to pleasure. Victor had a weakness and that was me. By now I knew any better than to let any woman bring confusion into our relationship even if I had to manipulate him with my given tools then so be it

The man was last in feeling me, kissing me and sucking on my neck and throat. He had shoved my dress down until my shoulders were exposed and started kissing me wildly, so passionately. I couldn't hold myself as I adjusted my sitting position and ended up with my legs crossed to his sides.

The warmness from my body had him restless, I could tell he was trying to keep his breathing stable but he failed miserably and before I knew it our mouths sealed, so demanding that I couldn't keep up with his angry kisses, he shoved my dress down until my arms were no longer restrained.

His large hands circled my body as he caressed and massaged my back, kneading my soft skin as he explored my mouth with his tongue trying to destroy me and find places that drove me insane.

"Mmm"

I sucked on him and traced my hands down his neck and to his chest. I hated the layers of clothes keeping me from getting what I wanted and in one go I pried open his shirt. The buttons snapped and scattered all around. The feeling of massaging and caressing his hard chest gave me a certain satisfaction that I could control my urges

"That's...that's enough"I broke the kiss suddenly as I gasped for air. Trying, by all means, to take in some air for my vulnerable lungs. His hands moved to my face and he gripped me tightly. My eyes opened and I found him staring at me with hunger and lust. I was amazed at his skills in controlling his breathing

"Can I take her with me...for a sleepover...I want to make it up to her"I asked when my breathing was stable enough. I wanted to take Skylar with me so she could spend the night at my apartment. That way I could apologize to her. I was certain she was in a bad mood

"Okay but first finish... what you've started"the man agreed to nod at me and attempted to kiss me again but I gently pushed him away and got up from his lap

"That's enough...I guess your anger has vanished...you don't deserve me, Mr. Ellison…"I said as I walked away from him and wore my dress. He was so shameless to get seduced by me so easily

"Don't start...I'm in a terrible mood...fix this" he said, showing me the mess I created and I had the urge to laugh hard. He was so hard and demanding. I've never seen him so aroused before that even skin had turned so red."

"I have to go...I'm sure Skylar and I will have a great time" saying that I fixed my hair, took my purse, and left the man hanging. All I heard were multiple courses from him and I was out of his office.

As soon as I opened the door and walked out, I stopped when I nearly bumped into Monica who turned around just in time to realize I was standing there. With ease, I closed the door

"I'm sure you can't do anything right...how dare you…"

"That's enough Monica...it's enough and I won't tolerate you insulting me...yes I made a mistake but don't even try to come between Victor and i', "I cut her off rudely, if she could insult me and get away with it then she knew any better than to receive the same insults from me

"Wow, Vivie wow...I must say you've grown wings...is it because you finally managed to trap Vic in your little pathetic web" Monica said sarcastically as she disdainfully scanned me. I ignored her sarcasm knowing she was trying to provoke me

"Oh please you are no different... living in his house for what...you are the pathetic one because he feels pity for you or are you trying to replace your sister as his wife"I spat out bitterly forgetting all formalities, her anger flared up so much that if she had to beat me to a pulp she would have done it

"You won't get married to him, mark my words... Skylar is only my sister's child and I won't allow another woman to be her mother...got that"she said with a loathing expression while pointing her index finger at me. Nothing but the rage was in her eyes. How could one be so bitter and vengeful? His heart was full of anger

"And I promise you will never be with Leo...if you try anything like you just did now...then mark my words...Leo will never be yours" I shot back with rage, I saw how her expression morphed into a dark one. Of course, she was angry like she always presented herself

"You are nothing but a little girl who got lucky... Leo is forever mine…" the smirk plastered on her face while saying her words made me laugh at her "do you think your little threat worries me"Monica added and crossed her arms over her chest in a mocking way. In the past I felt sorry for her, to think she deserved Leo even if she was playing a two-timer

"Very soon... you'll know not to mess with me. I respected you despite everything but not today... you'll lose Leo and the love you think he has for you"I told her straight without any fear. Or respect which she didn't deserve and I walked out on her. I knew she hated me even more after this but I couldn't wait to make sure Leo never even looked at her. I just needed a day or two when doctor Justin finished with the sample of DNA I gave him then we'd know if Leo was the father of Casey's baby. In the meantime, she decided to see Skylar.

Monica was stuck in one place, Vivienne's words kept echoing in her ears causing her discomfort. She came here specifically to poison Victor's mind. She received a call from the principal about Skylar's school function which was going on. Skylar had no costume to wear for it.

It was a good advantage to paint Vivienne bad knowing full well Victor cared more about Skylar than a single woman but after this, she was certain Vivie managed to manipulate Victor and turned the tables

"Let me speak to him, "Monica said as she walked away from the elevator and headed towards the exit door. She decided to see Leo instead. Yes she was ignoring him now but it was time she claimed what was his

"Ray, give him the phone...let me speak to Leo. ''Monica was agitated and angry, not sure why Leo's manager was answering Leo's phone. She wanted to talk to him right away

"Fine, give me the address and I'll see him myself," she said as she entered her car. The manager was such a pain in the neck.
