Mummy I got you a new husband

SOPHIE’S POV

” This is it, Sophie.”muttering to myself after leaving Karl’s office, I left to Inform HR about Ryan’s return, I needed Ryan back since I barely had time left before Karl’s secretary resumed for work again and even though I was not so sure what I did was the right thing, I did not really care. All I wanted was vengeance and I needed Ryan in the office to have the revenge I wanted.

As I walked into the HR department, my heart was pounding with a mix of anticipation and uncertainty. Was it the right decision?” couldn’t help but question myself. However, deep down, I knew that having Ryan back in the office was essential for my revenge plan. The thought of him living a happy life with Tana while I suffered for years because of him was unbearable and somehow seeing him here had ignited my desire for revenge. I wanted to see him suffer the much that I did when he left me for Tana.

And now I had the perfect opportunity since I was going to be Karl’s secretary for a while. Being Karl’s wife was not so bad afterall, as it gave me the perfect cover to execute my plans. I was going to meet new people and establish more connections as well as have my own pound of flesh on Ryan.

Stepping into the HR department, I could feel the tension in the air. The other employees glanced at me with curiosity and suspicion, whispering amongst themselves. ” Where were they staring?” I asked myself, ” where they surprised that Karl’s wife would come to their office?” I thought again.

“Hi ma’am.” they greeted me as I walked into the office. I took a deep breath, before responding, reminding myself of my purpose of being there.

” Hello, can I see the manager please?” I asked ignoring their stares. Bringing Ryan back was within reach; and I was going to make sure I saw to it to the very last.

” Oh yes ma’am. A moment please so I would inform her.” She said as she picked up the telecom to call the HR manager who had told her to allow me come in.

” Thank you.” I said as I walked to the door and opened it after I knocked. As the door swung open, revealing a middle-aged woman with glasses perched on the tip of her nose. She looked at me with a mix of surprise and wariness. She did not hide her amazement as she stared at me nonstop until I got to where she was.

It would be the first time I was seeing her at the office, but I understood why, I barely left the desk at my office and would not have if not for the issue about Ryan. I guess she did not know I worked there too as Karl’s secretary.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

” Hi ma’am,” she said standing up and extending a handshake. ” You should not have bothered, I would have come see you instead.” She continued as she motioned for me to have a seat. ” Please have a seat. What do I offer you?”

” It is not a bother, I guess I needed the walk down here if you know what I mean.” I replied and we both giggled. ” I would not been needing anything, I am fine.” I replied when she asked what I wanted.

“How may I help you, Ma’am?” she asked cautiously. I smiled, trying to appear friendly yet determined. “Yes, I’m here to inform you about Ryan’s return,” I said confidently. Her eyes widened slightly, ” ohhh, did Mr Karl authorize that? ” She questioned as she peered at me suspiciously.

” Yes he did, and asked me to see to it so he would resume tomorrow at the latest, more reason I came here myself.” I added peering into her eyes, a sense of power surging through me. The woman behind the desk looked at me with skepticism, but I knew that soon she understand my true intentions.

She raised an eyebrow and leaned back in her chair, sizing me up for a moment. I wondered where all the respect she had for me has gone as I noticed how she glared at me. ” Alright then, I would confirm from the CEO and then contact Ryan.” She responded finally.

“What did she mean by asking Karl about it?” I thought to myself. “Did she think I would come over to lie to her?” I questioned, muttering inaudibly as I stood up to leave her office irritated by her comment.

I was annoyed by her response but tried to keep a straight face as I faked a grin and left the office.

Headed back to the office, my phone beeped, and when I checked it was Sonia. ” Not today!!” I muttered as I was not in the mood for her chit- chat and queries so I ignored the call and went upstairs back to my office.

As I entered my office, a surge of excitement ran through me. Everything was falling into place, and my revenge plan was finally in motion. I sat down at my desk and began to brainstorm the next steps, envisioning the downfall of Ryan and his ultimate humiliation.

I carefully crafted my plan, mapping out each intricate detail in my mind. Ryan had caused me so much pain and suffering, and now it was time for him to experience the same. The first step was to ensure his return to the office, which I had successfully achieved.

” This was easier that I thought.” I mumbled to myself as I leaned on my chair, grinning mischievously as I thought about what I have been able to achieve within a short period. ” You would not see this coming Ryan. I assure you.” I muttered as I decided to continue with work.

I heard some steps as I tried to continue with the files I was working on, I raised my head to see who it was. ” Oh no not again.” I sighed as I saw who was coming to Karl’s office.
