"Nedra kissed his nose.
“While you were busy working at Baxter, there were plenty of women
working at Baxter who wanted you, Victor.
Badly. Why there have been actual
spats on your behalf. In fact, I was
present when some pretty raunchy conversations went down regarding you. There were women betting on who was going to
turn your ass out. Beautiful women. Smart women.
Talented women. Fighting over who
was going to be your boo; over who was going to have you. You have a sexy appeal that a lot of
women find irresistible, present company included. But your head was shoved so far up Sue’s ass that between it and your work, you didn’t see it. You had no clue. But I knew.”
He looked bewildered as she pressed another kiss against his
lips. “Why didn’t you tell me?”
“We weren’t on speaking terms, if you’ll recall. You didn’t know I existed, but we all knew
about you.” She smiled, recalling an all-out catfight between Darlene Marsh in
Biochemistry and Trielle Davis in Microbiology over Victor one Friday
afternoon."
There will be one more chapter after this.
