The Billionaire's Secret Lover novel Chapter 92

“ Here are the files, sir” 

I turned to see Aurora thrusting some files at me. I collected them and waved her off while I got busy with the document. They were the budgets for the newly launched Casino games that needed my signatures.

I read through the amount of money needed and took my time to calculate each total to make sure no one was trying to embezzle money from the company.

“ Excuse me, sir”

I paused as I lifted my head to see that Aurora was still in the room even though I asked her to leave“ What is it, Aurora?”

“ Nothing, sir. I just wanted to apologize for my behavior the other day and also to appreciate you for giving me my job back” She told me with her head still bowed.

“ Well, it's nothing. And I'm sorry too for being too hasty to sack you, I should have gotten all my facts ready before taking any actions” I told her, shrugging.

I watched as Aurora's eyes widened in shock as she heard me apologizing. Something I would never have done before but Nina had taught me to always say sorry when I'm wrong.

“ No, sir. It's my fault. I shouldn't have insulted your wife. I'm sorry” She refused as she continued pleading with me to forgive her.

“ It isn't your fault, moreover, Nina said you were only trying to correct her. I'm sorry for judging you wrongly” I told her, cutting her off. I was devastated when Nina told me that Aurora didn't insult her but rather she was jealous of her.

“ But_____”

“ No buts, Aurora. I wronged you, so I need to apologize. Is that okay?”

“ Yes, but I also need you to forgive me. It was not in my position to talk back to your wife. I wasn't professional” Aurora explained as she watched me with her head bowed. I could see that she was sincere and remorseful of her actions.

“ Fine. I've forgiven you. Can I go back to my work?” I asked her jokingly with a smile on my face. Aurora smiled back as she nodded and walked out of my office closing the door behind her.

I buried my head in the files while working away endlessly. I needed to get these files done before the launching of the game, which was in two weeks.

Thirty minutes later, I close the final documents and rest my head on the armrest while closing my eyes to catch an hour rest or two before I could bring myself to go home when I heard the Knock on my door.

“ Come in,” I called reluctantly to her, knowing that it was Aurora out there. I regretted not telling her that I don't want to be disturb. Maybe I'll tell her after this.

“ Sorry to disturb you, sir, ” Aurora immediately apologized when she saw my eyes drifting close with my head on the armrest.

“ It's okay, Aurora. I'm done with the documents. Send them to Chris and have him get into action immediately by transferring the money to the necessary accounts” I told her with my eyes still closed. I felt Aurora walked closer as she picked up the files which I had stacked together on my table.

” I___ sir____ you have some visitors,” Aurora told me, stuttering. I open my eyes and glare at her. Can't she see that I'm trying to relax here? 

“ Then have them wait?” I shouted at her as she cowered in fear. I scolded myself for reacting that way with her. She didn't offend me.

“ I'm sorry, who's out there?” I asked more gently as I smiled up at her trying to get her to relax with me 

“ It's John and Don,” Aurora replied, her eyes searching around my office, refusing to look at me. I could see that she was still scared.

“ Okay. Send them in” I nodded at her and waved her off. I guess sleeping would have to wait as this was far more important.

I had sent John and Don to find me the spy who had told Deborah everything about Nina. I knew it would be no one but someone in her company who was close to her.

The door opened almost immediately and John came in followed closely by Don. I nodded to Aurora and waved her off as she closed the door behind her.

“ So, any news?. Don't tell me nothing, please” I told John as soon as I saw him about to speak. I don't think I will be able to forgive myself if they didn't get the spy.

“ We found him” John and Don replied smiling at 

me. I shoot up from my chair in shock. I had never expected them to find the spy so soon.

“ Really? Where is he? Who is he? How?” I threw questions at them as I couldn't contain my excitement. I was dying to meet him. I've dreamed of the things I will do to him when I find him since Nina explained things to me this morning.

“ It's Mr. Shawn Mendes,” Don replied, his eyes tightening in anger. I couldn't stop the gasp that escaped my lips. I mean of all people, why does it have to be him?

“ How did you find out?” I asked both of them, already gathering my laptop into my bag. I couldn't wait to meet that son of a bitch.

“ I have always been suspicious of him,” Don replied as he paced through my office.

“ Remember that time you asked me to watch Nina?” Don asked me as I nodded at him to go on. I was anxious to know more.

“ I discovered one time that he was in love with Deborah. He and her always frequent the club Olympus. I followed him there this morning, guess what I found” Don asked us.
