Amanda - Season 2 - Episode 4

Morgan drummed his hands nervously on the table; he had changed his mind and rescheduled their date, it was now lunch and no longer dinner.

‘I thought you wouldn’t come’ his face brightened as Alex walked in a denim and a crop top that revealed her well shaped and sexy belly.

‘Why wouldn’t I? You’re so important to me’ Alex dropped a kiss on his lips and settled in a chair.

She noticed he wasn’t relaxed.
‘Are you okay Morgan’?
‘Yes I am, I am really sorry for the way I reacted, it’s just that, my past experiences with women have not been very nice. I have been lied to, cheated on and I felt really hurt when I found out you had not told Amanda the truth. But I realize you were defending your friend and so was I, and maybe I overreacted and I am really sorry’ Morgan reached out for her hands, lifted it and planted a kiss on her fingers.

Tears filled Alex’ eyes, she was really touched by his words; she had not understood why he had been so mad with such a trivial issue, but she understood where he was coming from now.

‘I get Morgan, I really get why you were so hurt. I thought I was doing what was best for Mandy, but at the long run, I realized if she doesn’t know the truth, that she may still harbor a little resentment of Greg and even have a bad image of him now especially now that he fired her’ Alex replied.
‘Are you saying you’re going to tell her the truth’? Morgan was surprised by the change in her.

‘Yes. She deserves to know it. Though I don’t like the way Greg fired her, I can’t make him be the bad guy in her eyes, I’ll tell her everything. I want to be happy Morgan and I felt this emptiness and loneliness when you were no longer with me. I want us to be totally honest with each other and I promise never to break your heart’ she cried.

‘It’s okay baby, I love you so much’ those were the words that flowed from his mouth; they flowed unhindered. And it was the first time he had spoken the words to her.
She felt it. She felt the novelty of the words and she replied.

Alex leaned forward, stared deeply into his eyes, when she found her answers; she sealed her love with a soft and slow kiss.
‘Excuse me Lady, your change’ the cab driver call out to her.

‘Keep it’ Amanda fired at him and rushed into the building.

She was many things; poor, wretched, low class but she wasn’t a w---e. Why did he transfer such a huge amount of money to her if he didn’t think her a wayward woman?
‘Mandy! Are you back’? Gwen was greatly excited to see her.

‘Not really, is he in’? Amanda bit her lip.
‘Sure, are you okay? You look really…brown’ Gwen grinned and settled on her hair.

She had meant to say “angry and wild”, this wasn’t Amanda; something was off.
‘You can go in, he is alone’ Gwen nodded.
‘Thanks’ Amanda busted into his office without knocking and that was the first mistake she had made, she found him kissing another. A very curvy blonde.
‘Trudy’! Greg pushed her away, she had ambushed him.

‘Honey, you enjoyed that, why push me away now’? Trudy eyed him seductively, and then followed his eyes; there was someone else in the room.
‘I have seen you before’ Trudy stared at the girl; she had seen her once in the club and on Nathan’s computer.
‘You have to leave now Trudy’ Greg’s voice was stern.
‘Are you gonna call me baby’? Trudy winked and blew him a kiss.
‘Of course I am going to call you, now run along’ he waved.
‘Bye! Greg and you too’ she glared darkly at Amanda.

‘What are you doing here Ms. Atkins’? Greg avoided looking straight into her eyes.
‘Oh now I am Ms. Atkins? I see you are very good with women’ Amanda scoffed.
He had made her feel so special the night before but now she saw who he truly was; a man- w---e; whose drug was the venom of women.

‘Careful now, you no longer work here and so I could call the guards to throw you out’ Greg turned his back and faced the window.
The sight of her morning face had unsettled him; it had broken every control that he had but he wouldn’t show it. He was strong; he was fearless and brute. He was Greg Beecroft, the C.E.O of the Beecroft Empire and he wouldn’t be unnerved by a silly girl.
‘I am a not a w---e Greg’ she called his name.

He liked the sound of “Greg” on her lips and what the hell was she talking about?
‘This is what I am talking about’ she walked towards him once he had swirled round her and their eyes melted together.
His eyes were fire, browning confusion; he was lost.
Her eyes were water, brewing, angry and relentless.

‘Why did you send this? Did you think I slept with you for money? Who do you think you are? You think because you were born with a golden spoon that you’re entitled to treat people like crap’? Tears filled her eyes, but she wouldn’t let them drop; she wasn’t weak and she would show him that.
‘I don’t need your money, take all of it. I don’t need your pity’ she said through clenched teeth and then dropped Lucy on his table.

‘What do you think you’re doing? Get this bunny out of my office’ Greg rushed and lifted the cage.

Her words were like blade, they seared his flesh and tore his heart into tiny pieces; he felt horrible.

He had not meant for her to feel that way when by sending her that much money; he realized he shouldn’t have fired her, maybe he should’ve gotten her an office that was very far from his’. He had sent the money out of guilt.
