在野外被三个男人躁一夜

It was such a big coincidence that Amelia knew many people who had connections with him. It was like fate was playing a pretty sick trick on him.

He wanted his peace of mind back, wishing to be free from thoughts and images of her. The way it was before he went home to attend to the fake health condition of his loving grandmother.

However, the more he wanted to avoid her. The more he found himself closer to her. Maybe this was fate saying this was payback for all his sins.

But what did he do to deserve this?

“But I never did anything wrong.” He mumbled internally to himself as he contemplated his life.

He did not make false promises to any of those girls. He had made sure that they were happy while they were with him. He was fair and reasonable.

.....

Nobody could complain about that. Not those girls he dated and slept with in the past. But, of course, the world had its sick way of returning the favor.

“Do you think there is still a way out of this situation? Can we still resolve this problem?” His eyes suddenly cleared, revealing his client, appearing quite worried, sitting at a table across from him.

Evan had to entertain a VIP client, even in the middle of the night. But it is not unusual for clients to call them at odd times. After all, the law did not take a break even in the middle of the night.

Still, he could not believe he had zoned out while interviewing a client about a case. Under his normal condition, he would be all ears, attentive to her needs. Not only was she an important client of their company but quite attractive too.

“I am sure we can do something about this.” He could always find a way around the problem. He just needed the facts and time to deal with his issues. “We will do everything we can to resolve this.”

But not even that could divert his attention away from her as his mind kept floating to dreamland. He tried to recall the issue, trying hard to come up with gameplay despite not hearing everything she said.

He always had his mind focused on his job, making him one of the best in corporate affairs, but now, he was drawing a blank since all he could think about was her.

“Why don’t you send me all the files in my office tomorrow morning so my team can look at them more thoroughly and give you a sound recommendation.” It was the best that he could offer under the circumstances. Besides, it was late.

“I know you will do your best. I will send all the documents early tomorrow.” The client smiled happily at him, sounding satisfied, relieved that he had given her hope.

She quickly extended her hand to his, holding them tightly, thanking him for accepting her case. “Thank you again for coming on such short notice.” The woman told him, beaming at him.

He could tell from how she held his hand that she was not only expressing her appreciation. She was sending him a message she was also interested in something more.

Evan tapped her hands, debating whether he could use her to make him forget about the other girl. But that did not sound fair to this woman. Suddenly, he felt guilty for even thinking about sleeping with her.

“It is my job. So, don’t worry about it.” Suddenly all he wanted was to end this night and go home. He needed to rethink his plans on how he could settle this issue because it had gone on long enough, not his client’s case but his dilemma.

But when his eyes glanced at the slightly loud sound coming from the other side of the restaurant, his eyes landed on a familiar hair. His mind suddenly wondered if it could be someone he knew.

However, seeing a familiar face beside her, Haley, he already knew there was no more doubt. Once again, he found himself in her presence.

He wanted to laugh at the insanity of him being in the same place as her, but he did not find it funny. Eventually, he chose to ignore her presence. It was not fair that his mind kept wandering elsewhere when he should focus on his job.

“Don’t thank me yet because we still have a lot of things to settle. Let us take one problem at a time, but I assure you, we will fix this.” He assured her.

Although he was still yet to receive the documentation, he was already formulating some possible approaches to this problem. It should at least divert his attention away from the woman who just walked out of the restaurant. He hoped.

After a few minutes of discussing the case, they finally called it a night, heading in different directions. But he had to discuss this with his partner, so instead of going home, he went to his apartment.

He knew it could have waited in the morning, but he did not want to go home to an empty house with his thoughts. Besides, he had to inform him that he was not leaving to visit his grandmother.

He had to postpone his visit next week to deal with this case. “Why are you here again?” His friend asked as he entertained him at his house.

He sat on the mini bar of his partner’s apartment, telling him about the case. He knew it sounded absurd that he would intrude in the middle of the night to inform him of something that could wait that was not that urgent.

“I know I must sound crazy to come here tonight, but you are right. It could have waited in the morning.” He admitted, realizing his mistake.

“I know I am right. And judging from your expression and how you drank my whiskey, you have something more to tell me.” David looked at him with those questioning eyes.

Once more, his friend was right. He did not come here because of the case. He came here for answers, a solution to his obsession with her.

“I have no idea of what you are talking about.” Denying his problem and seeing that David’s girlfriend was still fixing their drinks, listening to their conversation.

Although he had managed to open up about his issue with Amelia to his friend, he was not about to divulge it to Rosella. She had already seemed to be curiously waiting for his response, but he was not about to feed her interest.

“Really?” David questioned, but before he could mock him more. He was suddenly interrupted as Rosella walked to his side and wrapped her gentle hands on his shoulders.

After the years of getting to know her, she somehow became a big sister to him that he never had. But still, he was not about to confess anything to her.

“Hey, be kind. Your friend seems to be having girl issues.” Rosella teased him as she poured them another round of whiskey, moving away from him.

“David?” Evan stared at his friend. “You told her?” Evan looked at his friend, shaking his head in disbelief.

He confided those things in confidence to David, thinking he would keep to himself. But he was surprised that somehow Rosella had learned about it.

“Of course, I did. You know I don’t keep anything from Rosella.” David answered. “Besides, Rosella is great at keeping secrets.”

As if that should be enough excuse as he thought about how to get out of this situation. He did not want the added complication of including Rosella.

“Don’t worry. I won’t tell a soul.” Rosella pushed the drink in his hand before walking back to the other side of his friend, sitting beside David.

“You can trust, Rosella,” David told him, assuring him without chuckling this time that they seriously wanted to help him.

“Besides, maybe I can help give you advice from the woman’s perspective.” She added. “Sometimes, knowing how a woman thinks could help.”

He never thought of that, thinking of her suggestion. It never occurred in his mind that asking them would give him answers. Although he still had a reservation about seeking her help, she might have a point too.

Maybe learning a few things more about the woman’s psyche could give him a better understanding of how to deal with Amelia.

“So, if you know my situation, what do you think shall I do with this girl.” He wanted answers. Maybe she or David had one. It was probably the reason he came here in the first place.

So far, the two had managed to stay together and keep their relationship strong. David had already proposed to her, but she had yet to set a wedding date. Still, they seemed to be content and happy.

But he did wonder if his friend was happy to be with one person for the rest of his life. It would seem he was the only one in the group who was not in a committed relationship.

“How can one stay with one person for the rest of his life.” The questions floated out of his lips before his friends could answer.

He still could not believe that he was talking about this with his friend and girlfriend. But he had to ask. “How do you know she is the one?”
