Chapter 38

Hailey wakes up the next morning and she gets ready for work. She felt really well and her fever was gone. She got to work and started working.

She didn't see Valerian the whole day until she checked her phone and saw a message from him. "I'm not coming in today, I got your fever." Hailey can't help but laugh a bit

"I will come after work to nurse you."

"Well then I look forward to it." she smiles at his response and throws her phone to the side. She carried on with her work until it is time to go home. She goes to a place where they serve chicken soup and she gets two portions to go.

She gets to his house, and she rings the bell. "Come in."

She walks in and finds Valerian sitting by the couch with a blanket around him. He really does look awful, she takes out the chicken soup. "Yum, I'm hungry."

She laughs at how super husky his voice sounds, he really sounds extra hot. "What?"

"Nothing." as she keeps it to herself. "That's not fair Hailey, I deserve to know."

"Fine, your voice sounds extra hot."

He chuckles, "do you want to come here?"

"No, I don't want to get it again, then it's an endless cycle of fever."

"You have a point there."

After they eat she clears the dishes and sits by the couch. She sees that he is drowsy from the medication. She goes up to him, "let me take you to bed."

"I would love that." as he gives her a devilish grin. "wow, you sick."

He just laughs, she helps him up and he gets into his bed, she makes sure he is fully tucked in. "Night." as as she blows him a kiss which he catches.

She got back to her apartment and she slept.

The next day she gets to work, and the day goes by slowly, she keeps on wondering if Valerian is okay?

Hailey looks at the clock and there is an half hour before they knock off. "Hailey, they are looking for you in the front office." as Maggie tells her.

She gets up and walks to the front office and she finds Charlize.

"You bitch!" as she yells at her.

She sees everyone starting to gather around wondering what this is about.

"Hailey I will ruin you, you think that just because you had sex with Valerian means that you mean anything to him?"

She just stares at her is shock and she wants to run into a hole and hide.

"You are just a slut, who sold herself to get the position she has."

"No I didn't, so you know I graduated at Harvard."

"Yeah, yeah. It doesn't change the fact that you are screwing your boss to get extra privileges, you think I don't know what happened in Paris and all the dates you have been going to."

She looks around and sees people staring at her. Was this really happening to her?

"You know what Hailey, I was the one who thrashed your apartment and mark my words I can do more than that."

"So, you are the one who sent someone?"

She laughs sarcastically "of course sweet heart it was me, you can't win against me."

Hailey laughs lightly, "I already won, Charlize."

"What did you say?"

"You heard me, you are so pathetic that you are being threatened by a nineteen year old. If I was just a hoe to him then there would be nothing for you to worry about."

Charlize walks up to her and she tries to slap her, but she blocks her hand.

"Let go of me you bitch!"

Hailey lets her go. She goes to her workplace and she packs up and leaves the office.
