A ruthless husband.

The project.

Around seven in the morning I got home, when I entered my brother he was very worried, he had been calling a lot of times without receiving answers from me.

"Grace, where were you?" My brother George asked.

-I was with Gilda, forgive me, I was late, the cell phone was downloaded and I couldn't tell you, forgive me little brother- I replied while kissing her cheek, I quickly rushed to my room to take a shower.

George just nodded to smile, he knew he was fine but he also knew that he hadn't told him the truth, honestly I was dying of shame, telling him that he had spent the night with a man embarrassed me too much.

I hurriedly got into the shower, while soaping my body I couldn't stop thinking about that malicious kiss from my boss, he called me a liar and I swear I was telling him the truth, just thinking about it made my knees tremble, I was totally in heaven, I still couldn't believe that I had tasted those lips so bitter and sweet at the same time.

At approximately ten in the morning I arrived at the company, I had not taken the morning completely as James wanted, I could not be at home, I felt very nervous and anxious.

-Sir, I'm back in the office, if you need anything let me know- I said so quickly I entered my boss's office.

-Grace I told him to take the morning- He answered astonished.

-It was not necessary sir, I will go to my desk to work, there is a lot of work to do:

-We always have work to do. By the way, tonight we are going to a cocktail party, a client invited me and I need my secretary with me.

-Of course sir, what time?

-As soon as you're excited to close your doors we'll be gone, so please get everything ready on time.

-It will be, sir.

-By the way lying lips, I still have their lies on my lips, I don't know how to take them off, I think I'll need others to help me take the bad taste out of my mouth- He said as he got up from his seat.

-My lips didn't tell you lies, rather it's your lips that don't want to accept that I'm telling the truth, and I'm sorry for you, since it seems that you're used to being lied to- I answered with height, I hardly breathed to keep the balance standing on the floor.

-Grace didn't expect her answer, but it doesn't matter, we won't give importance to an insignificant kiss- She finally answered seriously.

I left the office a little sweaty, my boss was behaving in a strange way, I really think that kiss should never have happened, apparently my lips are the worst he has ever tasted.

When the time came, the company closed its doors until the next day. James was very punctual so I was already waiting for him next to the elevator, I knew that he would soon appear in front of me, and that was exactly what happened.

"Very punctual Grace," James said as we entered the elevator.

"That's why I'm your secretary, Mr. Miller." By the way, I have already scheduled the meeting for tomorrow for the presentation of the projects, it will be at four in the afternoon, there is a lot to hear, I imagine.

-Thank you Grace, the truth is very useful, do you already have your project?

-My project? No sir. I thought that I was not part of that project since I am just a simple secretary- I answered blushing.

-A simple secretary? You are better than many professionals who work with me, so please work on your project, it will be evaluated with the same quality as the others.

"Thank you for the opportunity sir" I answered sad but at the same time not happy.

Around seven o'clock at night, we arrived at the mansion where the cocktail was being held, there were many important people, and others not so much like me, for example. James took my arm and we walked through the crowd to a small table and took a seat.

"Grace wait here for a moment, I'll go to a small meeting, I won't be long" James said as quickly I took a seat.

Oh rays! I had been left alone, I seemed like a sad and lonely woman, until a very handsome young man approached and began to make conversation with me.

-Good evening beautiful lady- Said that anonymous young man to me.

"Good night young man" I replied shyly.

"I saw her alone and I didn't hesitate to approach her, my name is Peter, and is yours?" He asked with interest.

-You are very kind, my name is Grace.

"You have a beautiful name Grace, what do you do for a living?" He asked as he took two glasses from the waiter's tray.

-I'm Mr. Miller's secretary, I work for the largest advertising company in the country, I suppose you know her- I answered proudly.

-Who doesn't know her? It is a great company, many want to work there, and above all because it is international and gives many opportunities to employees, at least that is what is said.

-It is the reality, they take into account the employees, that is why many people would like to work there.

-It's been a long time since I talked to someone so comfortable, I'll leave you my card, there's my number, please call me if you need anything, I'll be at your complete disposal- Peter finally said as he took my hand and kissed it.

At that moment James returned to the table, his face was amazed, he did not expect that the woman he had left Alone, would find her accompanied.

"Good evening Peter," James said interruptedly.

-Good evening, Mr. Miller, I just met your secretary, the most beautiful and educated woman I've ever seen in my life- He answered as he extended his hand to greet him.

-And I don't doubt it, Grace is a very good employee, thanks for taking care of her while she was away, you were very kind, and by the way you can take your business card, she is not interested- James took the card and put it in his pocket Peter's sack, his shocked face was amazing.

-I see that you are very interested in her, I will not take away your secretary, although I confess that I would like to have her working for me, but I know that you will not let her go. Miss Grace, it has been a pleasure to meet you, I hope to meet you later- she ended up answering, after that she left.
