Your Turn to Chase Me, Reborn For Revenge

Chapter 112 - Not The One

"Well that was dramatic, does she think she's Cruella de vil. Luckily you don't have any puppies." Micheal replied. He knew it was hard for April to cut people so he made a joke but he was so proud she stood up for herself. He pulled her closer and kissed her forehead.

After Micheal had kissed her head she nodded silently thanking him. Yes, firing Sophie was a start but by April it was only one down and another few to go. Like Sophie had alluded she had only cut off the tail of the monster and that monster had many heads for her to kill.

"I am so glad you fired Sophie, she was a weak link in the team." Emma had interrupted all their thoughts.

All heads turned and she had interrupted the moment. Aarna, seeing that April was okay, returned to her desk. She didn't want to agree with Emma, as a manager she was barely there and as a human, she had no morals, she just used their work to give herself a boost and she had gotten rid of so many that had joined their team. Aarna wondered why Emma had never gotten rid of her. Was she not talented enough, she thought. Whatever the reason she had kept her job she was sure with April here she could have a balanced work life with a good friend.

Micheal ignored Emma, he had looked through all the corresponding emails and unfortunately for him Emma had come out clean. But he was sure she was involved in some way, he just couldn't prove it and in order to fire her cleanly, he needed evidence. It was a matter of time before she slipped up as she was getting too cocky.

Micheal rubbed April's head before saying, "Okay well that's enough for today. April sweetie, I will see you for lunch." He walked towards the lift and mentioned to the rest, "Get back to work everyone and remember management is always watching."

Once Micheal had left Emma happily smiled and waltzed to her desk with a spring in her step.

April thought that it didn't matter to Emma who was fired she wanted one of them fired and now April thought that it was a case of one down and one to go for Emma. She definitely couldn't let her guard down at work.

April had returned to her desk and started to work. She had the merging of her condo and Deans condo starting this weekend and with the start of that job, she also had to meet with James about her interior ideas for his project. She of course remembered from her past life all of James properties, she didn't need to go and look at them so she had his secretary just send his dimensions of each room and she was able to work from there.

April had worked all through the morning and before long Micheal had come back to invite her and Aarna for lunch. They ate at a local French restaurant for lunch which they had all enjoyed. The food and company was what April had needed to refresh her mind and soul after the confrontation that morning.

She then had worked through the afternoon and soon enough it was home time. Aarna came up to her desk and greeted her, "Hometime April, I am sure your handsome man is waiting."

April smiled and grabbed her phone and her bag as she stood up as she walked to the lift with Aarna and replied, "He probably is waiting so we better go, but what about you and a certain young Doctor?"

Aarna smiled just at the mention of Zane, "Well I, we are taking our time. Getting to know each other in real life rather than just through messages. You know he is the same in real life as he is, which is unbelievable. I'm happy."

April could feel something was amiss, but if her friend was happy she wouldn't push it, "As long as you're happy." They got into the lift together, "You know don't be afraid to voice your feelings to me or to Zane. I want the real unfiltered you and so should Zane."

"I agree. Are you one hundred percent transparent with Dean?" Asked Aarna.

They got out of the lift and walked through the lobby of Walker Interiors together, "You don't have to tell each other everything but it is important to talk about your feelings. I don't tell Dean everything but we have to discuss the important things."

"We had a beautiful weekend together." Aarna had a small smile as she remembered the weekend they had together.

"But?" April asked.

"Well after the amazing weekend we had together, he dropped me off last night back at my apartment but I haven't heard from him since I just hope that that wasn't it, a beautiful moment and now silence," Aarna confessed.

They stood outside Walker Interiors and April could see Dean's car parked and waiting for her. She turned to Aarna and hugged her before saying, "He will call or message and if he doesn't he's not the one for you. You are kind, caring and loving and you deserve only the best, okay don't settle for less. As I said before a message is the bare minimum and if can't even give you that... then he's not the one."

"Thanks and I know you're right," She pulled away from the hug and turned to see Dean's car, "Go your knight is waiting to pick you up."

April smiled and nodded, she would leave it up to Aarna to decide her own path and be there for her no matter what she chose in the end.

April walked to Dean's car and waved goodbye as she saw her friend get into her own car and drive off. She hoped for the best but feared her friend was with someone who just didn't see her like she should be seen.

At this stage Dean was out of the car and held her door open for her like a true gentleman, she leaned up and kissed his chin, after all, he was so much taller than her even in heels she had to reach up on her tiptoes.
