Fake Dating My Ex’s Boss

Nineteen

Julian’s POV

“Julian, Julian, please wait let me explain” Sienna yelled running after me but I didn’t bother stopping. Why did I doubt her for even a second, I was always right about her.

“Julian please, just hear me out” She kept yelling tears streaming down her face as she tried to catch up with me. Fake tears or probably tears from pleading with Damon over whatever they were talking about. I hurriedly got into my car, shutting the door in her face before she could stop me.

“Drive” I instructed my driver paying no attention to the banging on my window. He met my eyes through the rearview mirror and immediately started the car…better for him. Sienna hurriedly stepped away as the car began moving, an indifferent look I didn’t understand her face. She shut her eyes closed whispering incoherently to herself before turning and walking away leaving me even more confused.

“Julian baby” A familiar but unwanted voice whined once I walked into my office and immediately made a mental note to instruct Leah to always inform me about Izyy and her movements especially when it involves me, if I am going to keep Sienna and I’s agreement away from her some things are just going to have to change.

“Izzy, how are you?” I asked, tucking my earlier anger away.

“Oh just the usuals, still a bit pissed at you but I have come to understand that she is just one of your usuals who found a way to go further than the others in your life but she would be gone soon, I am sure of it” Izzy shrugged playing with her nails with all confidence. I chuckled lightly at the irony of her words, she didn’t make her way into s**t other than into rich men’s pants but then that’s the point of this whole thing. I would show her she can never mess with me and just like Izzy said she would be gone soon.

“Okay Izzy, if that’s what you think let’s wait and see then,” I said vaguely. I draped my suit jacket on my seat before sitting down fully taking in Izzy’s appearance. She had a really tight and short-handed blue gown on, her signature dress as she likes to call it. She said it brought all it needed to in the right way, something I have never fully understood till now. Her hair was packed neatly in a bun on top of her head, and then a white knee boots to pair. If only she would ever listen to me, I have always told her about the amount of makeup she puts on her face but it just seems like she keeps increasing it. She is so beautiful when she is all natural but no one would ever agree with me because you can barely catch Izzy looking all natural to even know which is better, I am one of the lucky few who have other than her parents.

“Has Leah offered you anything to eat or drink?” I asked deciding not to speak about what I had in mind.

“No, I asked for a drink over ten minutes ago but still nothing” She rolled her eyes.

“I am sure Leah is just busy, I gave her a lot to do when I was stepping out. I would call her in now” I explained reaching for the telephone I usually use to communicate with my office staff.

“Please do, my throat is parched”

I laughed before replying,” When is it ever not”

“Please let a girl live” She rolled her eyes making me smile at her.

“Leah, please get us something to drink in here” I instructed once she picked up.

“Anything specific, Sir?” She asked followed by loud shuffling in the background. Leah never disappoints, always up and ready.

“Something Light for me but I believe Izzy would prefer something strong,” I said looking at Izzy for confirmation and she was already nodding her head in excitement.

“Right away, Sir” She responded before the call disconnected. I can’t prove it but it seems to me like Leah has something against Izzy.

“Where did you go to anyway? I asked Leah but she wasn't giving me any tangible response” Izzy asked, leaning back on her seat as I dropped the phone.

“Nothing serious, just meetings here and there” I lied.

“Meetings you couldn’t hold at the company here?You always like to hold your meetings here. You once told me it gave you a sense of control so what’s changed?” She questioned watching me with skeptical eyes, lying is one thing, lying to your childhood best friend is a whole new thing on its own.

"Nothing's changed, I still love to hold my meetings here but this one was really important and the client couldn’t come to me so I had to compromise and go to him. It is business, things like this happen at times” I said holding her gaze, if she is going to believe me then I have to make it believable enough.

“Hmm, okay then. I guess that’s understandable” She shrugged, moving her attention to her phone that just pinged in her lap. I released an inaudible sigh of relief, leaning back on my chair. For the sake of confidentiality and for my plan to work, keeping Izzy out of all of this would be best. In due time I would reveal everything to her and she would help me execute the last phase of my plan just as I had planned. Sienna wouldn’t even know what hit her when I am done with her.

“Have you seen my new i********: posts?” Izzy asked excitedly, pulling up her page on her phone and handing me her phone, her bubbly self back like it never left. I beamed at her before taking the phone from her trying to push the images of Sienna and Damon so close to each other in my head from earlier, she wants him, she can have him.
