Is this destiny?

Chapter 280 - Fake Girlfriend (2)



At White corp. when Steve got into Jeff's office, they discussed few urgent matters, and Jeff rushed to a meeting. Steve didn't have a chance to talk to him about a woman who is impersonating his girlfriend.

Only later in the day did Steve get a chance to talk to Jeff. "Boss, this morning in the break room on fifteenth floor... it seems that there was a woman impersonating Miss Hill."

Jeff was confused. 'Why would anyone impersonate Sarah?' Jeff assumed that it's Sarah, since she is the only Miss Hill in the company. It didn't make any sense, so he wanted Steve to clarify. "Can you explain this some more?"

"I was not there. My... friend was there. And she told me that there was number of women looking at your photos from the magazine. Photos of you and another woman, which I assume is Miss Hill. And one of the women in the group claimed that it was her with you on the photos. I'm not certain who she is, but it's from marketing department. Also, she looks a bit like Miss Hill."

Jeff sat in silence for a while. After hearing more details, he understood that person is not impersonating Sarah, but JoAnna.

Jeff summarized. "There is a woman in this building, who claims to be my girlfriend. And she is talking about it in the break room, for others to hear..."

Sarah's image appeared in Jeff's mind and panic consumed him. 'What if Sarah hears that?' Jeff still remembers how Sarah attacked him when she found out that he is with JoAnna. Now that rumors are going that there is another woman with him, besides JoAnna… which implies that he is cheating… Jeff felt cold sweat gather on his forehead.

"How many people were there?" Jeff asked Steve with urgency.

Steve shook his head. "I don't know boss... but it seems quite a number of employees gathered. And that person was talking about your relationship with her."

Jeff was now in full blown panic. 'If a woman claims that she is my girlfriend, and Sarah finds out about it... Will she come at me again?' He swallowed few times. "Find out who she is... as soon as possible. Quickly!"

Steve understood that this is urgent and rushed outside. He immediately talked with Jeff's secretary and gave her a task to find out who that woman is... after all, women talk between each other, and it will be easier for her to find out who is claiming to be Boss's girlfriend.

In the office, Jeff was rubbing his temples and hoping that the gossip does not reach Sarah.

At about the same time, Sarah was having a coffee with Bridgette in a café on the second floor.

"How are things with Steve?", Sarah asked with a smile.

"We are getting closer... slowly." Bridgette was shy.

"Slowly?" Sarah raised her eyebrows. She found it amusing that a woman so outgoing like Bridgette is shy and talks about doing things slowly with a man.

"Yes... I don't want to mess this up." Bridgette blushed.

Sarah noticed that Bridgette is hiding something. "Are you sure that's all to it?"

Bridgette fidgeted for some time. "Well, I'm not very experienced. I might have a big mouth, but my actual experience with dating is lacking."

"Really?" Sarah smiled, not sure if she should believe Bridgette or not.

Bridgette saw that Sarah is ready to tease her and decided to switch the topic. "Oh, guess who I saw this morning in a break room on the fifteenth floor?"

Sarah noticed that Bridgette is switching topic but decided to let it pass. "No idea... don't make me guess... just tell me."

"I saw girlfriend of CEO White..." Bridgette said, ready to gossip.

Sarah was confused. "Who?"

"Girlfriend of CEO White... tall, long dark brown hair. The one from the magazine." Bridgette was very enthusiastic.

Sarah was in disbelief. "Really?" She could not figure out why would JoAnna be in the building. She got her phone and told Bridgette. "Just a second."

As soon as JoAnna picked up, Sarah asked: "Hey... where are you?"

"In the penthouse." JoAnna found this question strange.

"Did you go somewhere today?"

"No... why would you ask me such questions? With the tabloid photos going around, I feel safer just staying home and working on my paper." It was obvious that JoAnna is confused.

Sarah exhaled sharply. "Nothing. My mistake... sorry to disturb you." She hanged up.

This didn't make sense. 'CEO's girlfriend, and it's not Anna. Is Jeff cheating?' Sarah knows that he will not cheat… or does she? He got all over JoAnna before breaking up with Isabella. Isn't that cheating?

Sarah took few deep breaths to calm herself down and looked at Bridgette. "Did you maybe hear the name of CEO's girlfriend?"

"No name... but she works in the marketing department." Bridgette explained, not sure what got Sarah so upset.

Sarah immediately got an idea. "Come with me... bring your coffee."

Sarah took Bridgette to her office, and on her PC pulled out images of all female employees from marketing. "Which one is it?"

Bridgette looked for some time at the photos before pointing. "This one."

Sarah opened employee information. "Martha Hindin…"

"I'm going to kill him.", Sarah grumbled under her breath.

Bridgette looked at Sarah. "Are you OK?"

"Would you be OK if you find out that someone is cheating on your sister?" Sarah locked her PC and stood up.

"Who is cheating?" Bridgette was confused.

"F*cking Jeffrey White!" Sarah growled and stormed out of her office, almost bumping into Aiden.

Aiden was confused. He looked after Sarah who was almost running. Aiden peeked into Sarah's office. "Hi Bridgette, what was that?"

Bridgette shook her head. "I'm not completely sure... but it seems that CEO is cheating on her sister, so she is upset."

Aiden felt like someone poured cold water on him. "What?" He rushed after Sarah without waiting for a response from Bridgette. 'I hope she does not cause ruckus at work.... Jeff, you better not be in your office.'
