Monday comes in a blast . About a week ago , the divorce was finalized and both Cassiey and I are single .

It pained me and it still does to loose her . She was my prised possession .

I'm starting to suspect that the guy from the tattoo , that Ace or whatever- is her new boyfriend .

As Kayla and I arrive and park on our reserved sport , we notice that a black BMW is approaching from behind. It looks brand new .

It parks next to our porche. Kayla and I vacade the car and stand next to it , shades on looking good .

Cassiey and that Ace guy get out of the car . Both laughing fairly loudly .

Ace is in a grey Calvin Klein suit and it's very tight against his broad muscles. Cassiey is in a white loose pants and a loose white blouse with a white blazer and white heels.

They both look like the ideal power couple .

We all walk to the elevator. Kayla and I are silent while they're talking about something that's really got them throwing a fit.

"No , but I was thinking Bruno would be a great name . Come on!" Cassiey says .

"Okay , okay . I'm not going to argue. But I am going to name it without you knowing." Ace says and they both laugh and fall into each other's embraces .

"Oh hi guys. " says Cassiey .

Kayla and I simultaneously nod and face the door mechanically .

When the elevator dings , we all leave the small box .

Cassiey and Ace send their greeting to Kim and I hear something in the lines of

"Mustve been the most awkward elevator ride you've had ." Kim says .

"Not really . " Cassiey says in a peppy voice .

Kayla and I walk to the top floor offices .

"So , do we have alot to work on?" She finally asks .

"I dont believe so , why?" I ask her .

" Oh no reason ." She replies sweetly , I don't like this at all .

She starts working as if she isn't planning something evil . Then , the intercom starts ringing .

"Mr Smith, please report to Ms Miller's office. " Kim says and then it goes off .

I stand and Kayla gives me a stern look .

"If you're going to go there , then let me come with you ." She says . I look at her and sigh .

Of course I told her about our last encounter, I tell her everything . It's a habit .

We both walk down the hall to Cassandra's office. I knock and a silent enter sounds .

And as always , she is sitting behind the desk and Ace is sitting adjacent to her .

"Ahh , we see you've brought your sidekick." She says with a smile .

"Mr Smith , Ms Dixon." Ace says nodding to the both of us .

"Mr Bernett ." I say to him.

"Sit." Is all he says .

And I do as I'm told , something about the tone of his voice says that I shouldn't mess with him when it comes to his job .

But I can imagine , he's a nobody . Dating the owner of one of the most successful companies in the world . He has to work extra hard to prove himself .

I doubt he's even good at his job , I guess Cassandra just gave it to him courtesy of him fuckimg her brains off every night .

"Mr Smith , Ms Miller and I have been looking over the finances of the company throughout the period of the past five years .

And I'm afraid to tell you that the company has made some major losses . " He says .

"That's impossible.The company has been ranked the best five years in a row ." I argue.

"Yes , that's possible Mr Smith as how high a company is rated not only depends on their finances but by their reviews.

And sometimes a company gets bad reviews while it's finances are in ship shape . You have to understand that this is very bad for your company. " He says .

I stay quiet, I have no idea what to say that. Of course what he says sounds like facts .

"Looking through the financial records of your company , I've found some displeasing information .

Such as unnecessary hirings , unpaid debts and sundry spending . That's very bad for a company with a ranking like yours.

This means that we have to retrench unnecessary employees like personal assistants, we have to put a pause on funding colleges and possibly put certain properties onto mortgage. " he says .

"How can we stop this?" I ask .

"I'm glad you asked ." Cassiey finally speaks up .

"We have a strong game plan that might just earn the title of best property company in USA fairly .

But ofcourse it involves a long period of time, like 5 to 15 years . Depending on how deep this damage goes .

First , we start with increasing the price for certain apartment buildings, such as Lincoln Luxury apartments, it houses children of well known and rich celebrities, its inevitable that they'll be able to pay the prices.

Mortgage at least two of your best contributors in the company . Retrench up to 45 workers and withdraw from the minimum of 12 fundings. I can promise you Mr Smith , your company will be back ontop within 5 years ." He says .

"Of course ,there another choice ." Cassiey says .

"Let's hear it ." I say to her .

"We can take a risk . Buy one last property which we're sure will get us back to the profits we were making during the first three years ." She says .

"I'll think about it and get back to you. Thank you so much for this Mr Bernett ." I say .

"Yes , but Mr Smith , I'd advise that you begin with retrenching personal assistants . This will make a faster movement in our increase rate ." He says .

"What? Baby , I dont believe them . They're trying to scam us , they're trying to take all the money for themselves . Dont take the deal!" Say Kayla .

"Shut the fuck up you..." Cassandra begins but her boyfriend interrupts.

"Ms Dixon , if I were you , I wouldn't be speaking. Records here show that the company has spent over four hundred thousand at a spa in Wisconsin.

I know for sure that Mr Smith does not do spas , which leads us to you. The only other person who's had access to the bank if the business. " Ace says .

"I have a right to call the cops on you Ms Dixon . So from now on be on your toes because anything you say or do can lend you in jail . For stealing from me ." Cassiey finishes for her boyfriend.

"Thank you , that'd be all . I look forward to hearing from you , with resolved feedback. " Ace says .

Okay , I might have under estimated him . He's pretty good at his job .

Cassiey closed her laptop and I notice that over the '' on her tattoo is a diamond ring . Not at all like the one I gave her , completely different.

Kayla walks out and I join her joyfully . I'm not coping with what I've just seen.

As we exit, Kim enters the room.

I feel her eyes on my back as we retreat to the office .

"They're engaged. " says Kayla .

"I know . "I say , clearly frustrated. I cant believe it. I have nothing to say , or to think. It's all just unbelievable .

During lunch , I sit with Kayla and one if her friends whom I haven't gotten the chance to know yet .

"And then she said that Jason should fire all personal assistants. " she tells her friend .

"What a bitch." She says .

"Kayla , you're not supposed to share what we talk about as bosses . It is Cassandra and I's job to do that , and dont insult my wife ." I say .

"Ex-wife." Kayla says .

"Yea , ex-wife. " I say again .

I look over to the table Cassiey , Ace and Kim are sitting at . Ace brought takeout again. And the two women are eating with happy faces .

The rest of the day goes by as a blur . Soon enough, Kayla and I are back on the road home .

"Do you still love her?" Kayla asks out of no where .

"What ? Love who?" I say , my eyes trained on the road .

"Why did you call Cassandra your wife ? It's been almost two months since she filed for divorce and over a week since it's been finalized.

And not to mention she's engaged . Are you still in love with her?" She asks again .

"No." Is all I say to her .

"Hmm. I hope you're telling the truth ." She says and I sigh .

When we get back home , both Kayla and I rope around some aprons on our waists . She looks hot and I look vague .

We both start cooking, while she fills the kitchen with her beautiful singing voice.

She sings songs from when she was younger to songs that are now flooding the radio stations around.

At the end of the day we've prepared beef stranogaff which we both salvage on our dinner table .

A quick shower from both sides and we're all tucked in and ready for bed .

I am not excited for tomorrow .
