“Hi, sir!” I smiled at Cyrus Schmidt as I entered the law firm. He was one of the best lawyers in the city an not to forget, Victoria’s father.
He was a well-respected man and had even been my professor at one point. “Elena, what are you doing here?” Cyrus spoke, confused. He knew exactly what I was doing here. He was a workaholic and had been pushing Victoria to the fullest. I knew he saw me as a distraction, but I didn’t care. There was much more important stuff to worry about other than his feelings.
Such as a criminal having the nerve to ask me out on a date.
Was it even a date?
“I came here to visit Victoria,” I told him. Being kind and supportive was part of Cyrus’s big act, so I knew he wouldn’t deny me. I knew what kind of monster he was, and it was all due to Victoria’s stories. The only flaw in her fabulous life was her dad.
“Oh.” Cyrus spoke while the sides of his lips trembled. “Of course, go and have fun-she’s in her office.” “Thank you, sir!” I spoke as I turned around. “Bitch,” I muttered under my breath while I made my way to Victoria’s office. I had no time to knock, so I did what I had to do and burst through the door.
“Jeez, what’s wrong with you?” Victoria laughed as she leaned back in her chair with a glass of red wine in her hands. “A lot, but first-give me that!” I pointed to her glass.
I sat down on the chair and pulled her glass out of her hand to finish it. “Hey!” Victoria frowned. “What do you think you’re doing.”
“Drinking, and you better pour yourself another glass because you’re not prepared for what I’m about to tell you.”
Victoria eyed me suspiciously and leaned forward as she waited for my explanation. “Are you pregnant?”
“What? No!” I scoffed. “It’s so much worse than that!”
“You think being pregnant is bad?” Victoria commented. “That’s rough.”
I slammed my hands on her desk and her in the eyes. If she thought that was rough, I had another thing coming for her. “Do you remember that prison pen pal from a few weeks back?”
I could tell by the look on Victoria’s face that she did not like where this was going, and neither did I because it seemed crazy to actually say it out loud. “Yes?”
Her threatening eyes were staring straight into mine, and it made me feel insecure. Pretty perfect Victoria wouldn’t do something stupid like that. “We’ve been sending emails back and forth and-”
“Elena,” Victoria sighed, disappointed. “I told you to let it drop. Why can’t you just ever listen?”
I lowered my head as I took in Tori’s words. This was not the first time it had gone like this. It seemed to be some habit of ours. I would screw things up, while Victoria would put me straight. “Do your dad and
