His Lovely Obsession novel Chapter 84

"Nomp!" she tried to break the kiss.

The phone started ringing but Nick didn't seem to hear or care instead, he coaxed her lips to open. She frowned a little. Looks like he had been drinking. His breath smells of alcohol. She soon stopped resisting. Her man was unstoppable anyway. After the kiss, he had to explain why he smelled of alcohol early in the morning.

The sound of their wet tongues lapping and their moans filled the room. Then they heard a loud knock.

Nick was reluctant to let her go but he knew she would get angry if someone would see them kissing passionately at his office. They broke the kiss before the door opened.

"Sir. Mr. Adams is here. I tried calling you on line 1 but..." his secretary sounded a bit embarrassed.

Nick's hands were still framing her face but he threw Cherry a glance. "Tell him to come back later." he ordered.

"No! Talk to him now. I have to go." she said after getting away from him.

"NO! We need to talk!"

"He is your client. " She turned to go but he took hold of her arm.

"Dammit honey! We'll talk!"

Cherry looked uncomfortable but she couldn't go unless she got a clear instruction from Nick.

" It's not talk you want! Look what just happened a few moments ago! Besides there is nothing to talk about! No wait! You have some explaining to do! Have you been drinking this morning?!" she asked angrily. She didn't care anymore if Cherry could hear them.

She glared at him when he said a very bad word. Cherry looked so surprised because it was the first time she heard him cursed.

Easy Alcantara..easy. Nick advised himself.

He was about to blow his top. He had no food but alcohol since last night. He didn't want her to leave but he couldn't do anything and now he was sexually frustrated.

"You are already drunk at this time of the day? And what would your staff think if they discovered your state?" she turned , 'Please Cherry, keep mum about this okay?" The secretary nodded.

"I am not drunk! I know what I am doing!" Nick rasped.

Her eyes went back to him. " You know that you are working today so why did you drink?! "

"Because you weren't in our bed! I wanted to make love to you the whole f*cking night but you chose to stay at your friend's unit! Dammit!!" he said through gritted teeth.

She gasped. How could he say such things when there was another person in the room? Cherry's eyes widened and her mouth formed an O. She sighed heavily before glowering at Nick. After a moment of two, she walked out of his office.

She chose to work outside next to Cherry's desk. Nick's meeting with Mr. Adams ended but she still didn't go back in his office. To her surprise, he didn't call her to ask her to return nor went out to get her. She was focused on the laptop's monitor when he finally came out. She automatically looked at him but he didn't look back.

"Miss Mendez, if someone calls tell them that I will be back on Monday. Get all the signed documents on my table." he said tonelessly before heading for the lift.

Cherry just nodded and glanced at her but said nothing. The other employees just exchanged looks too.

Her eyes became half slits. She looked at the time. It was almost 12 PM. He totally ignored her. He didn't ask her to eat out for lunch and didn't even say goodbye to her. She wondered where he was going. She tried to get back to work but from time to time she checked her watch. She lost her appetite so she skipped lunch. She had the sudden urge to call Nick but she was controlling herself. A lot of things kept playing in her mind.

Was he with another woman? He said he was sexually frustrated. She almost groaned due to anxiety.

Now it was past 4 PM but still no message or call from him. She was worried that he took what she said seriously. She repeated to twice to him that he was her ex already. She was thinking that maybe he did want to break up with her so finally he could taste other women. He was probably tired of her. Cherry's voice made her turn to her direction. She pointed to the paper she had been holding in her hand. She sighed when she realized that she crumpled the design she was making out of annoyance.

'I didn't like it. I will make a new one." she lied and Cherry just smiled at her.

"Stacey." called Nick's driver.

She sighed in relief. At last Nick asked him to fetch her. She stood and was ready to get her purse.

"Your car key. It's parked in the basement parking." he handed her the key.

She hoped no one noticed the disappointment on her face and tone when she said thank you

(Nick)

He was glad that he became busy. At least he was able to take his mind off his woman for a few hours. That stopped him from calling and texting her too. He had to meet his father and his older brother. They visited the site for their new business. They also talked to some people that would be a part of their team. Now he was with Billy. They were in one of their favorite bars. He wanted to call Stacey but his friend said he should let her be until she cooled down. He told her they had an argument but he didn't give all the details. Only his family knew the whole truth.

"Let's just chill since since it's the weekend tomorrow. " Billy said before gulping some booze.

He nodded and swallowed some of his whiskey. He then checked his phone. Stacey's car is in the vicinity of Eve's place so he had nothing to worry about. He was satisfied that the tracking device was working well. He raised his glass at Billy before gulping again. He wanted to get drunk tonight. He didn't want to go home sober in his lonely condo. He would missed her more. He was hoping that tomorrow his woman would decide to lift all the rules because they had been pissing him off big time.

(Stacey)

"What do you want to do?" She asked Eve .

"Let's go bar-hopping! Let's use your car! That is one hell of a car! You lucky girl! "

She frowned. " I don't think that's a good idea."
