“Please be my date on Saturday night’s party…” Mr. Easton Gonzalez said after submitting the report I had written earlier. The yellow folder he was handing me back hung in the air as I stared at him in shock.
"Excuse me?" I shrieked, my gaze fixed on his. "I'm not going on a date with you!" I exclaimed, glaring at my boss.
“Don’t worry Miss Bell, it’s a fake date…” my boss informed me and I felt like I was splashed with cold water on the face.
Easton Gonzalez, the CEO of Gonzalez Steel Manufacturing and Industries asked his personal assistant Chloe Bell to be his fake date on their company’s Silver Anniversary to annoy and upset his ex-wife who cheated on him with his best friend. He chose Chloe out of all the girls around him because he knew Chloe wasn’t like the other girls who were crazy about him.

Boss, I'm Just Your Fake Date

The goodbye was neither bitter nor sweet. After giving me a passionate kiss and hugging me for as long as he could stand it, he walked away without so much as a wave or turning his back to face me for the very last time.


I slowly walked back towards the house, my feet felt heavy as they dipped in the warm sand. My gaze remained fixed on the surface of the ocean as I watched the yacht becoming smaller and smaller until it was no longer in my line of sight.


After harshly wiping the tears off my face, I sat down on the sand to compose myself. What should I do in this situation? How am I ever supposed to continue living my life the way I did before, now that you’re so far away from me?


It’s fine, really… The only reason I care is because I am missing him.


I didn't question his decision to leave me or complain about it. Why he didn't allow me to accompany him on his trip? I refrained from complaining for the sake of peace.
