Your Turn to Chase Me, Reborn For Revenge

Chapter 118 - Failing Miserably

It had been three weeks now since the incident with Sophie, work had been chaotic and at the same time enjoyable. Herself and Dean had had a peaceful and normal life. Their quiet but harmonious routine fulfilled both of them.

Dean dropped her to work and went on to work himself. He would pick her up and they would spend the night in each other's company, eating, reading and watching movies.

What April didnt expect was for her not only to keep up with Dean's needs in the bedroom but she found herself provoking him more and more as the time had gone on.

Today was the day of the new moon and everything that a month ago she would have been manifesting into her life she now had. She was beyond happy with this easy going lifestyle. April though held the knowledge of the past and what her story could have been had she not been so daring and changed her path for the better.

Eager for the future and keen to get on with her life she had decided to be petty with those who stood in hers and Dean's path. Lucy had set her up to be hurt and humiliated by Director Compton and although Sophie had lost her job and she hadn't seen or heard from her since the intersection on the road that night, she was sure she had learnt her lesson and wouldn't trouble her again..

Lucy though had thought that she had gotten away with it. April was just calmly biding her time though. After all, she couldn't just let her lose a job, that wouldn't be enough revenge she wanted Lucy to lose everything she wanted including her hope. April wanted to drown her in despair the way she had been while she was choking on the fumes and surrounded by flames.

She had just sat at her desk and switched on her computer when her phone had rung.

April picked up the phone and answered, typing in her login details as she did, "Hello."

"Hello, is this April Green?" A girl's voice came from the other side of the phone. In a company as big as Walker Interiors she hadn't met all the staff yet so she wasn't sure who was ringing her.

"This is April," April answered, but she started to hear bickering in the background and her eyebrows furrowed as she recognised the familiar voices at the other end of the phone.

"Hi this is the reception staff, we have a Mrs Rachel Green and a Lucy Green demanding to see you." The young girl raised her voice so she could be heard over the bickering.

April rolled her eyes in disgust, "Okay I will be right down thank you." What now she thought as she got up and walked towards the lift again.

"Morning April."Aarna had just got out of the lift as April entered.

"Hi Aarna, back in a moment and we can get some coffee." April smiled and replied.

"Everything okay? Should I ring up to Micheal?" Aarna was concerned and held the lift door before it closed so she could ask. Herself and April had gotten a lot closer as the weeks went on.

"No no everything will be okay, just two annoying rats in reception that have forgotten they belong at the dump" April folded her arms as she replied. She was prepared for any mayhem that awaited her downstairs.

"Oh!" Aarna giggled of course her bestie was amazing she shouldn't have even asked, "I'll see you shortly." Aarna let go of the lift door and watched as the doors slowly closed.

Her friend was a baddie and of course, she was okay. But she worried about how much one person could take from their family. If it was her family always causing chaos and hurting her she wasn't sure if she could handle it all the way April did.

She sat at her desk, turning on her computer as she then sat her bag down. She looked at her phone and contemplated for a moment before sighing and putting it in her desk drawer.

With a bing, the lift door opened and the scene unfolded in front of April's eyes. She kept her back straight and walked confidently towards the front reception desk.

Lucy wore a pastel pink tea style dress with white pumps, looking innocent and demure but her mouth let her down.

Rachel was wearing a violet pants suit, she looked elegant and classy. She was trying to calm down her daughter but she was failing miserably. Leaving them both looking like a mother trying to calm down a very spoilt little girl. April laughed, it was pathetic really she thought as she approached them both.

After having failed with her plan with Director Compton Lucy had been furious that Sophie had let her down, not only that Sophie had the audacity to show up at her home looking for her. She didn't know why Sophie was so hung up over being fired from a small firm until her curiosity made her look up the details of Walker interiors.

She had mistakenly assumed that April worked for a small interior design company, she had no idea it was run by the second most eligible bachelor and businessman Casey Walker. She was livid that April had gotten a job at such an elite company.

Not only does she have a great job with an excellent salary, but the clients that she was rubbing shoulders with were also on another level. She was initially smug when she had landed her own job at a jewellery company, she had even bragged about it to her close friends. But now she was beyond jealous.

She had stomped off to her mother's room to complain about the injustice. Her mother had come up with a plan for them to use April to get a job. Her mother thought if April could land a job in Walker Interiors then so could her daughter.
