Samantha’s POV

I woke up with a terrible headache – that’s what I got from crying river of tears yesterday, along with dark circles under my

eyes. And a foul mood to boot.

When I arrived in the living room, Henry was giving instructions to an army of people the security guards and house staff. When he saw me, he flashed a beautiful smile and extended his hand.

“Sam, good morning!” He kissed the top of my head and started introducing me to all the staff members. There were so many people.

After the introductions were over, everyone left the room and Henry pulled me into a hug, which comforted me and improved my mood a little.

“Are you okay?” he whispered in my ear.

“Not really. I have a headache and just feel off, I can’t really explain it,” I grumbled, resting my head on his shoulder. “Aw, my poor goddess!” Henry said in an affectionate tone that drew a small smile from me. “Come on, let’s have a nice breakfast and then you can take a painkiller. I’ll call Alexander and let him know you’re not coming in today.”

“Yes, I will!” I protested.

“But you’re not feeling well,” he pointed out as if that could change my mind.

“So what?” I asked critically. “I may not feel great, but I’m still capable of working!”

“Are you sure?” Henry didn’t dare argue, noticing I was in a bad mood.

“Absolutely!”

“Then let’s have breakfast.” He pulled me toward the kitchen.

My eyes lit up seeing the chocolate cake on the table. I ate a huge slice with a cup of coffee and took the painkiller before leaving for work.

“Sam, schedule something with your mom and Joaquin, we need to talk to them,” Henry reminded me when he dropped me off at work.

“Okay, I’ll call her,” I replied. “Can it be any day?”

“The sooner the better, Nightingale,” Henry warned. “It’s important they stay alert too.”

He was right. At first, I wasn’t taking Romulus’s threats seriously, but he had discovered the apartment’s address, I was worried.

My headache wouldn’t go away, and I was uncomfortable and irritated. At lunchtime, I ordered food to the office – I wasn’t in the mood to go out and was very impatient. I took the opportunity to call my mother.

“Samantha, where have you been?” My mother answered, quite irritated.

“Oh mom, I’m sorry. So much has happened.”

“From what Vince told me, you were planning to reconcile with Henry. What happened?”

“Well, Vince talks like a chatterbox,” I smiled.

“Vince just calmed my worries since I couldn’t get a hold of you.”

“Mom, I got back together with Henry.”

“Finally, some good news! I like that young man, Sam, and he cares a lot about you.”

“I know. He wants to talk to you and Joaquin. Can we set something up?”

“Dinner at iny house tonight. I’ll be expecting you both. Can I invite Vince?”

“Of course! It’ll be good to introduce him to Henry.”

I chatted with my mom a bit longer, and as soon as I hung up, I immediately sent Henry a message about dinner with my mot and Joaquin. But I hadn’t even put my phone down on the table when it started ringing. I looked at it and didn’t recognize the number, so I answered.

“Samantha, how wonderful to speak to you after so long.” I heard the voice on the other end and felt a shiver down my spine.

“Well, for me, it’s quite unpleasant to hear your voice again, Reynold.”

“Ah, darling, don’t be rude.” He let out a cynical laugh.

“What do you want?”

“Isn’t it obvious? You know very well what I want.”

“You’re ridiculous! Stop calling me, I can’t stand you.”

“One dinner and I’ll leave you alone, Samantha.”

“You will leave me alone. And I’m not having dinner with you.”

I hung up the phone shaking with anger. Reynold was a disgusting creep. Soon after, a message notification pinged on my phone from him. I didn’t know if it was a threat or what he wanted with this, but it simply said:

“Don’t choose to take the hard way.‘”

I couldn’t help but have that message hammering in my head. However, I needed to work, so I threw my phone in the desk drawer and focused my attention on the computer in front of me. That’s when Manu stopped by my desk.

“Sam, got time for coffee?” Manu asked with those expressive eyes of hers.

“For you, I always have time, little Manu!” I saved my work and pulled her toward the break room.
