Boss am worried about young madam what If madam Williams doesn't accept her it's okay Charlie you don't need to worry about Courtney David said. Boss I investigated the person behind the boss of the company that sent us a subpoena boss it's Peter Boyle charlie said interesting Catherine has gone complaining to her brother David said Boss we still need to be careful Peter Boyle is ruthless and the Boyle family behind him is powerful too he wants to use Jonathan Charles as a pawn to deal with you charlie said Charlie seems like you forgot the nickname people gave me David asked coldly sorry boss charlie said by the way that land that Peter Boyle acquired newly, that land is worth billions Charlie get that land by all means Peter Boyle needs to learn a lesson David said okay boss I will do it i will take my leave now boss charlie said and left.

Courtney went inside the pantry to make two cups of coffee for her and David. Lawyer Courtney I think you like taking too much coffee Courtney turned to the direction of the voice and saw that it was the lady that bullied Karen yesterday she didn't want to talk to her so she ignored her. Leah went closer to Courtney and said lawyer Courtney I think we started on the wrong foot my name is Leah smith am a team leader in the sales department she stretched out her hand for Courtney to shake hands with her but Courtney ignored her and continued making coffee. Leah stood there embarrassed and quickly withdrew her hand. Lawyer Courtney you are not a petty person right so let's be friends leah said Courtney glanced at her briefly and continued making coffee Leah was getting infuriated by the minute but she kept her calm and continued talking lawyer Courtney I have apologized already why are you holding it against me Leah said pitifully hey green tea are you done talking didn't they teach you that when someone doesn't reply to you you leave them alone but here you are doing the opposite. You don't have to pretend Leah I know you are apology is not sincere don't bother yourself by licking the wrong boot Courtney said. Lawyer Courtney accept my apology Leah said. Miss Leah cut the crap we are not friends I am not friends with bootlickers Courtney said then she took the coffee and left. Just you wait lawyer Courtney you won't be arrogant for long Leah said angrily before leaving the pantry.

Here is your coffee boss Courtney said as she placed the coffee on the table and went to sit on her chair after taking the coffee she completely buried herself in work she and David worked side by side without disturbing each other . It was lunch time so David asked Courtney what she wanted to eat so that he could order for her anything is fine boss Courtney said. David ordered the food and had the food delivered to his office. He ordered hamburger, french fries and spaghetti. Courtney leave your work come over let's eat Courtney left her chair and went to seat on the small lounge chair with David he placed the food on the coffee table. She and David ate together, he made Courtney eat alot boss am good now I feel like an overfed cat Courtney said holding her stomach you haven't eaten the fries yet David said aaah boss do you want to kill me I will eat the french fries later let's go back to work boss Courtney said okay David said the both got back to work and continued working. When it was time to get off work David stopped Courtney from working Courtney it's time to get off work stop working now David said okay boss Courtney I won't be going with you today I will be working overtime in the company take my car I will tell Charlie to send another car over for me when am done David said. Boss let me stay with you since am done with my work am feeling a bit tired I want to sleep on the big couch you can continue with your work when you are done wake me up let's go home, Courtney didn't know when she unconsciously said the word home she has started considering David's house as her home without knowing it. Okay when am done I will wake you up David said. Okay boss Courtney said she went to the couch removed her shoes then she lay down to sleep Courtney was telling the truth she was indeed tired so she slept off quickly. David continued his work at times when he is working he checked on Courtney when he saw Courtney clasping her hands tightly together around her body he knew she was feeling cold so he got a blanket and covered her to warm her up. David worked for three hours straight when he was done it was already 7pm. He stood up and walked up to where Courtney was and saw that she was still sleeping so he didn't want to disturb her sleep so he carried her out gently and put her in his car then he drove off. When they got home Courtney carried Courtney inside to her room when he was about to place her on her bed Courtney woke up she saw that she was in David arms David ignored her look and placed her on the bed. Take care of yourself I will tell nanny Felicia to send your dinner over then he left.

Courtney was still confused by the sudden turn of events she had asked David to wake her up when he was done but when she woke up she saw herself in her room seeing herself in David's arms when she woke up she realized that David must have carried her from the office when she was sleeping. She was touched by his thoughtful actions then again she told herself that they were only in a contract marriage that she shouldn't think of such things.
