Chapter 49

• Marilyn's POV
• I drove to the office feeling like an idiot. I had been a nervous wreck all morning and I couldn't stop fidgeting in my seat as I waited for the traffic to clear. I never got this bad unless I was really late, but that's not what was causing my nervousness at all. How was I supposed to act around Enzo now? He used to say I was like a cool breeze on a hot day, now I had to look over my shoulder every single time I was around him because I feared that Yvonne would be watching.
• I took multiple shortcuts just to get out of traffic as soon as possible and finally made it into the office parking lot in record time. I slammed the car door so loud I was sure someone from down the hall heard me. I ran into my office with as much speed and energy as I could muster before taking a deep breath and calming myself enough to sit down. I deserved a pat on my back for how I managed to get past Derek, the annoying HR.
