Lenora was going crazy, she hadn't seen Jamie in three days now. And she didn't hear anyone from him, was he in the city was he not in the city? She had no idea. Plus she couldn't even find him at work, he was suspended. No wonder he came to her like that, but it's this too much? Was this her punishment?

***********************************************

​​

Susan was enraged, how dare she?! Gosh she was such a bitch! She pulled Lenora chair away and slammed her hand on her desk.

"Might I ask the reason for this stupidity?" Lenora asked.

"You used him!" She yelled.

Lenora looked around the office and noticed people starting to stare, she got up and folded her arms. "Do you really want to do this here? Not that I mind or anything but your the one that loves to deceive people into thinking your nice when your just as twisted as I am."

"Fine, come with me." She said walking out.

Lenora followed her until they were on the roof.

"How could you? I understand that your sick enough to steal people's hard work and take the glory for it, but how could you jeopardize Jamie? Because of a story?"

Lenora shrugged, "hmm well, I'm a reporter don't hate because I'm better than you are."

"You're so sick! What kind of human being are you?!"

Lenora laughed. "Don't act all holy now, you are even worse. Don't think I don't know about how you solved the Morrell corps murder. Yet you claim to love Jamie? Spare me the bullshit."

"It's not as if I was in a relationship with him, and whatever you think you heard you don't know me! Besides it's one thing to go extra measures for a story but to deceived and manipulate that's just wicked."

"Why are you acting surprised? You did this, why brag about him in front of me? You claim you know surely you must have known I would go after him." Lenora shook her head.

"So it's my fault?" Susan asked in disbelief.

"The only reason you acting this way is because you like Jamie. And regardless of what you do he would never even look at you, even now he would still choose me. And yet, I still hurt him, does it bug you?" Lenora laughed.

"I hope that's it, now that you've got what you want leave Jamie alone." Susan warned.

"Alone? Oh no, oh no no. I can't let him go? I actually started liking him as well." Lenora said.

"And yet you still ruined his life? Just when I thought you couldn't stoop any lower."

"Well you see, it hard not to fall in love with someone that's so good in bed." She said coyly before laughing. "Not that you'd know anyway."

Susan couldn't take it anymore so she released the pent up anger on her cheek.

Lenora eyes widened and her jaw dropped in a sick scoff. She grabbed Susan's hair and pulled it down. "Do you want to die?"

"What the hell are you doing?!" A voice yelled at them from the door. The both turned to look at a very angry Jamie. "Lenora let her go, this instant."

Lenora stared at him with no emotions in her eyes except boredom but she refused to let go. Jamie walked to her and grabbed her arms forcing her to let go, then he pulled her away from the roof to another secluded place.

"Aren't you being to much? Why are you attacking my friends as well? You've already ruined my life what more do you want?" Jamie asked with so much heartbreak and contempt at the woman standing before him.

"She hit me first, I was only defending myself!" Lenora yelled.

"Defending yourself? From what? The only thing anyone needs defending from is you! How can someone lie so doggedly? You loved me? Ha!" He scoffed.

"How much did you hear?" She asked softly.

"From the when you said you only came after me to spite Susan. Now you've gotten what you want leave me the hell alone Lenora. What horrible luck, I wonder what terrible sin I committed in my past life to meet such a twisted person." He spat. "Dont ever appear in front of me again." He said walking away.

Lenora blinked away the tears that threatened to fall, she always felt like he never fully forgave her for that time. But she really has changed, and he made her want to be better. How could he just leave?

"Reporter Hastings!" Her supervisor yelled.

Lenore jerked and turned to look at the man yelling by her desk. "What the hell are you thinking? I've been calling out to you for goodness knows how long." He scolded.

Lenora looked around the office to see everyone staring at her. She awkwardly cleared her throat and faced him. "What can I do for you?"

"Our sources tell us there is going to be an inauguration ball for the new chairman of KE holdings. Can you get an invite?" He asked her.

"On one condition, I get to cover the story I personally." She said.

"That's up to the captain, just do your job okay?" He told her walking away.

**************************************************

"What do you mean? Ofcourse there has to be press." Patricia whined.

Jason sighed at the other side of the speaker and rubbed his temples. He asked her to take care of this party so he wouldn't have to worry about it, why was she being so stubborn now?

"I want a small quiet gathering, besides all the people coming are influential and famous don't you think bringing the press would make them uncomfortable?" He asked her.

"Well how are we supposed to announce our engagement without press present?" She asked.

Jason rolled his eyes, fighting the groaned that pressed to come out. "Look Patricia that's my final decision. I'm discussing this with you any further, do you understand?"

"Wait a minute, Jason. Look you asked me to take control, don't you think you being too stiff?" She huffed angrily.

"Yet I'm still in charge of final decisions, my decision is final Patricia. Goodbye." He said curtly cutting the call.

Patricia huffed, who the hell did this guy think he was?!
