Please Punish Me Instead
This scene made Brigitta remember the time he caught Cassie and her half sister having a threesome with her ex husband, Alex Roberto. She felt sick to the stomach.
“I’ll pass.” She turned from them and walked out.
“I feel bad that she left,” Cassie faked a sad expression.
“Should you feel bad? I already told you she would come to sleep here this night but you insist you want to sleep here. Anyways, I hope your presence gives me peace this night.” Then he laid on the bed and turned from her.
Didn’t he want to have anything to do with her this night? Cassie thought to herself. Did she not look sexy enough for him? Her sexily curved body would turn any man on and drive them crazy yet he didn’t seem to be moved at all. If not that he had once had sex with her, she would have assumed that he was impotent.
Nonetheless, she laid. Hoping that he would turn to her soon. However, an hour passed yet he didn’t bother to turn to her. Infact, it was as though he had fallen asleep. She didn’t know when she eventually fell asleep.
By the time she woke up, she noticed there was no one beside her, eye-searching around the room for him, she was stunned to see a tall man before a mirror, dressing up in his suit. At that time, he was making his tie.
She immediately sat upright and picked up her phone, she thought the time had really gone but it was just 7AM. Though the official work hour was 8AM.
She greeted, “good morning, sir.”
“Good morning.” He answered her and went over to where his wristwatch was, he wore it and picked up his IPAD then said to her, “I’m leaving already.” Then he walked out.
She furrowed her brow in shock. Just like that? Nothing intimate happened between them at night. Did he really have that much of a self control? She was stunned.
She put the duvet around her away then stood and turned to look at where he had taken his wrist watch from. He walked towards it and opened the safe, she saw ten gold wrist watches there, one could tell that they were specially made for him and they would worth millions of dollars.
She then took two of the wristwatches and walked out.
Brigitta also resumed work as promised, by reason of her two days absence at work, she had missed out on many things so today was very hectic on her. She was busy covering up that she didn’t even know someone had been knocking.
“Please come in,” she said, while her hands kept going very fast on the keyboard.
Then the door was opened and Cassie walked in. She was the least of all people that she was expecting.
“If you are not here for anything serious, please get out,” she said, not bothering to look at her. She kept working on her laptop. She glanced at her and saw that she was already before her table but she was not sitting, “as you can see, I’m already busy.”
“Indeed. I better come back,” Cassie then walked out.
Brigitta ignored her and continued working. When it was a few minutes to her break period, she allowed someone else that was knocking to come inside. Seeing Ottar, she stood and greeted respectfully, “good morning, Mr. Ottar.”
Ottar walked up to her table and said, “I need you to print out the reports the marketing team sent to you yesterday.”
“Got it, sir.” She immediately find the file on her laptop and pressed the control P. Then she walked up to where the printer was and removed the printed paper.
Just when she was about handling it to Ottar, she saw him staring at something on her table.
“Forgive me, miss Brigitta but these are customized watches on your table,” Ottar said to Brigitta.
Brigitta noticed the watches and walked closer, “did you drop it here, sir?”
“I didn’t come with watches.” He answered, “these watches are…” He took one of the watches and examined it, seeing the inscription written on it, he said, “they are specially made for Mr. Ragnar.”
“Oh! I had no idea how it got to my table,” she said.
“Then I take it that Mr. Ragnar didn’t give you this watches. I must inform him about it.” He collected the report from her and walked out.
Brigitta was still stupefied. How in the world did these wristwatches ended up on her table? Then her mind suddenly went to the only person that had come to her table today apart from Ottar and that was Cassie.
She would definitely be the one to drop this wristwatches here. What was she trying to achieve with that? Then her office phone rang and she answered it, she dropped it after a few seconds. Ragnar had told her to report to his office immediately but that she must come with the watches.
She went with an overly thumping heart, when she appeared in his office, she saw Ottar with him. Ragnar Marshall dismissed Ottar and demanded for the wristwatches. After handling it over to him, he confirmed that they were truly his wristwatches.
“I didn’t know how those wristwatches get to my table,” she defended.
“Well, I never had sex with Cassie yesterday.”
His response wasn’t what she was expecting. She looked confused. Although she couldn’t sleep all night at the thought of what Ragnar Marshall and Cassie could be doing on his bed overnight.
She nodded gleefully but the expression on her face hid her happiness “but I didn’t take the wristwatches. I honestly don’t.”
“The kidnap of your child and the death of your so called best friend, Nikolai was all your fault,” he said. As though he didn’t even hear what she was saying, “you persuaded Beocca to enact your agenda. You ended up getting your bestfriend killed and you end up letting your son get kidnapped.”
“I had to do something,” she confessed. Eventhough she did not know how he found out.Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
“You mean you had to do something foolish?” He questioned. He didn’t even know why Chester’s kidnap bother him so much. He had questioned repeatedly why he felt more connection to Brigitta’s kids whereas, he couldn’t seem to connect with Cassie’s son eventhough he believed Cassie’s son was his. “Beocca confessed everything to me and he’s under punishment for going on a mission without my consent.”
“Please punish me, instead. It’s all my fault.” She begged. She didn’t want Beocca to suffer because of her.
