“Mr. Sullivan, it’s real cool how you’re trying to change this place to make it better. I think the previous owner only enjoyed partying and didn’t care if this place went belly up,” Henry said as he ran a hand across his jaw.
“You can thank Penny.”
Thinking of her, I wandered down the hall to see how she was doing. I didn’t want her to get too nosey in the office, or to see anything more from Pardo Inc.
I opened the door and she sat behind my oak desk, her bright teal tank showcasing her perky tits.
Shutting the door behind me, she lifted her head and her eyes met mine.
“How are the menus coming along?”
“Almost done. I’m excited.” Her enthusiasm was cute. Her nose crinkled and the adorable freckles splattered there were highlighted by the sun coming in through the small window.
Upset about the idea of her having a boyfriend, I frowned as I moved closer to check out the menus she created.
Fuck, all of my emotions were centered around the anger I felt from the fact of the mysterious boyfriend. Did he eat her out as well as I did? I pushed away the thought of Penny’s succulent pussy as I tried to focus on the first set of menus.
The Spanish mosaic design she created along the paper was the perfect amount of class and not too girly.
She knew what she was doing, and I questioned why I dismissed the idea of her for the management job.
She stood from the office chair and came next to me to study the menus.
“This is really good work.” I forced a smile.
“I think you need to advertise.” Her eyes lit up as she spoke, her voice rising with excitement. “Maybe on the radio? Or the news stations.”
Another great idea, and I fumed I wasn’t the one who thought of it first. “Maybe.”
“Oh come
on. You know it’s good,” she taunted.
“I guess. I mean, meh.”
She swatted my arm playfully as she laughed. “Ok, Mr. Tough Guy, I’ll let you have it. You can tell everyone you thought of it.” She chewed on the corner of her mouth as she glanced at me.
“No, I would never take the credit away from you. I’ll admit it, Penny, you’re the Queen of Good Ideas.” I smiled and held up the menus as evidence.
“Why, thank you.”
My smile faltered as I held her stare. The light buzz of the computer sang in the background, and my brow furrowed at the thought of the boyfriend once more.
I had questions, so many fucking questions. “Why?” was the only one I was able to mumble.
“Excuse me?”
We stood close as my heart thrummed. She was in my veins, and I couldn’t master a thought around her. I wanted to fuck her against the desk, I also wanted to march out of this office and never see her again.
“Why did you let me touch you when you have a boyfriend?” I asked a little louder.
“I don’t know,” she whispered, her head bowing toward the ground.
“Fuck, you drive me insane.” My hands flew to the sides of my head, tugging at the ends of my hair. I blew out a breath as she stepped closer.
“I never meant for anything to happen between us.”
“But something did happen. A lot of things happened. I can’t deal with this. You’re my damn employee. I could get in a lot of trouble over you.”
