《Love on Top》Ch.30
Advertisement
Daphne and I were in my office having lunch together. She was sitting in front of me on my desk while I sat in my chair. We were eating Subway right now as Daphne started telling me about something funny that had happened when she was at Marcela's house.
"...and then all of a sudden Xavier walks into the room about to Marcela a question and then he just slips on the floor and all you heard was a loud 'thud'. I know it's bad to laugh, but the way he went down..." She stopped telling the story to laugh. I couldn't help, but smile at the way she laughed.
"He started cursing and he said 'ass rat' and 'son of a cock sucker'. The list just goes on and Marcela and I were just laughing at the man. He kicked me out an hour before I was supposed to leave which is why I got here early," She explained.
"I can't believe you were laughing at him, Daphne. He could have been seriously hurt," I said.
"He was okay because he hopped his happy ass up and kept it moving," She replied. I chuckled.
"Karma is going to come at you ten times worse," I murmured.
"Whatever, Sam," She rolled her eyes.
After we finished eating lunch, Daphne and I said our goodbyes before she left. It was not too long after she left that I saw that she had left her phone on my desk along with her wallet as well. I know she'll realize in a few minutes that she needs to come back for them. I have no doubt in my mind that she's heading back now. Because I was waiting for her, I decided to respond to some emails and make some important phone calls to ask about contracts, future meetings, and business lunches that Bridgette can either send over to me or schedule for me.

My door opens and I stood up to grab Daphne's wallet and phone.
"I had a feeling that you..." I trailed off when I saw Daphne's sister Sidney stand in the doorway with nothing but a trench coat and a pair of heels on.
"Hello, Samuel," She closed my office door behind her with a smirk on her face.
"Sidney, you need to leave," I firmly said.
"Oh come on, Sammy. You and I both know that you don't want me to leave," She said.
"Sidney, either you leave by choice or you leave by force," I hissed as I glared at her.
"I know my fat ass sister doesn't keep you satisfied, but maybe I can," She said as she untied the belt of the coat. She had on nothing but lacy lingerie. She walks over towards me with a seductive look on her face. I backed away from her until I hit my desk.
"Come on, Sammy. I'll make you feel good," She cooed.
"Leave, Sidney," I snarled.
"I don't think you want me to," She grabbed my crotch. I grabbed her wrist and placed it by her side forcefully. The opens again and Sidney crushes her lips to mine. I was in complete shock by this. I pushed her away and when I looked behind me, there stood Daphne with this expression that was a mix of sadness and betrayal. I instantly felt like a piece of shit. Sidney turns around and she gives Daphne a small smile.
"Daphne, don't you know that it's rude to just barge in like that?" Sidney asked before sauntering out of the room. I looked back at Daphne who had tears pooling in her eyes.
"Daphne-" She walks out quickly before I could even say anything. I run after her calling her name causing people to stare, but I ignored them.

"Daphne, wait!" I called out. She didn't even turn around to look at me. One of the elevator doors opened and she got on quickly. Before I could even get to her, the doors closed. I clenched my fist and punched the wall. Shit. I can't believe that I let that happen in the first place. I walked back to my office and slammed the door. I put my face in my hands. I couldn't help, but think about the way she looked at me. It made me feel lower than I ever should feel. It's my fault that I allowed it to happen. I feel like a piece of shit. A scumbag. A low down, dirty dog.
I know that simple words cannot fix this, but I don't know any other way in which I can tell her that I'm sorry or that I didn't mean to hurt her at all. When I finally realized that sitting on my ass and doing nothing wasn't going to help, I grabbed my blazer, my keys, her wallet, my phone, and her phone before leaving. I'm going to go find her.
"Bridgette, hold all of my calls for me," I said.
"Yes, sir," Bridgette responded. I ran towards the elevator and I got on. I quickly pressed the button to close the doors before it started to go down.
Once I got to the garage, I hopped into my car and drove to my place first. As soon as I got there, I headed inside and I went straight upstairs. I saw that she wasn't in my room at all. I searched all around the house before realizing that she wasn't even here at all. I decided to drive to Chastity's place first to see if she had seen her. I know that her and Chastity were really close with each other and I knew that she most likely would be there. When I got there, I got out of my car and headed straight towards the front door. I rang the doorbell twice.
When the door opened, there stood an angry Bryson.
"Is-" He cut me off mid-sentence by punching me in the face. I stumbled backwards and he advanced towards me.
"You bastard!" He yelled, "I can't believe that you would do that to her!"
"Bryson, it's not what you think," I tell him.
"I've heard shit like that before, Samuel!" He spat venomously.
"Bryson, she came onto me. I was trying to get her to leave," I tell him.
"Yeah fucking right! You probably called her over there!" He growled.
"No I-"
"Save it, Samuel. Just fucking save it!" He yelled at me. I got quiet.
"Don't come around her again or else I'll fucking kill you! Got it?" He hissed.
"Fine, but tell her that I love her," I said.
"I'm not telling her some bullshit ass lie," He spat at me. I sighed and then I went to my car. I handed him her wallet and phone.
"Just give them to her," I said. I turned and walked away to my car. I got in and drove off from Chastity's house to nowhere in particular. I just drove.
