32 Chapter
Lina
It happened again! No matter how much I scold myself and try to justify myself, I am really attracted to my boss. Maybe Masha is right, and I am scared in vain to be abandoned and eaten by him without a trace? I am me. He is him. We are different, yes. But… Maybe this really is my ticket to the future? Especially now that Kostik has had such an unfortunate accident?
He’s rich, and his money will come in handy.
Yeah, I don’t recognize myself at all. There was practically nothing left of the good and proper Lina.
! I love you,” he whispered to me in between kisses, when our passion faded a little and then flared up again. I feel good with him… Very much so. I’m actually afraid of falling in love with him. I’m afraid of heartbreak, afraid that he will be able to apply his dominant habits later in normal life, when the passion fades away and the normal family life remains. Masha does not know why I am so cautious about such men. I did not want to tell anyone, because it is not my secret, but my school friend. Okay, I don’t want to talk about sad things. Vova didn’t wake me up today. We fell asleep early, we must have both been exhausted by yesterday’s events. He hugged me, and I let him do it. I didn’t want to fight anymore. Really, I decided to let the situation go and just go with the flow.
“Good morning,” he walks into the room, already dazzled by the light from the windows. It’s really snowing outside. I have already managed to crawl out from under the blankets and go to the window to see all the beauty of the nature around me.
Vova’s mansion is huge. This is not my little apartment. It’s a whole other life, another level. I know that men like him don’t marry simpletons like me. Even if the girl is beautiful, men of his level only give us the role of a mistress. They only marry those who are in their circle. Or the daughters of influential people or profitable for business.
“Good morning,” I say to Vova as he comes up to me from behind and gives me a hug and a kiss on the cheek.
! It’s already more than a day, but I let you sleep in. We’re not going to work today. I don’t have to worry about that anymore. Vlad will take care of any work issues.”
“Vlad? That’s my other boss?”
“That’s your immediate superior. You’re his employee. I kind of borrowed you.”
I didn’t like the way he phrased it at all. What do you mean borrowed? It’s not like I’m an object! I wanted to get out of the boss’s grasp, but he knew what was going on.
“Sorry, I didn’t mean it. It’s just…”
“I get it. Well, I have to go to the hospital.”
“You don’t have to. The doctor will call you if you need anything or anything happens. You need to get through the day in a calm and non-threatening way.”NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
“I don’t know, it’s hard. I’m really worried about Kostya. I haven’t even told my parents what happened. I’m just afraid that my mom can’t take it anymore and…”
” It’s gonna be okay. I guarantee you that.”
“I wish I had your confidence.”
“Lina, there’s a spa room in my house.”
“That’s quite a service.”
“It’s not unusual.”
“Well, it might be to you, but I’m not used to it. Besides, you’ve seen how I live.”
“Don’t worry about it. Oh, I just wanted to give you a heads-up. You’re finally getting to meet Vlad tonight.”
“He’s coming here?”
“Yeah, after work. You don’t mind, do you?”
“No. Seeing my big boss,” I say those words on purpose to make Vladimir angry. I like to piss him off sometimes. Of course, now he knows that I have no one, I had to confess when we tried to figure out the relationship with him in the living room, which ended….
“I’m your boss, he’s just like that, just for work,” he says menacingly, to which I just smile and nod my head in agreement.
