We’ve been at this for two hours and I admit, he’s good. Very good at taking amnesia or did he get into an accident and actually loose his memory or something.

Stefan Pierce is a big deal even though the public wouldn’t know the depth of the accident they’ll surely know he was involved in one and there has been no news about an accident involving him so he’s faking it. The question is why?

If he’s trying to get a word out of me he’s failing pretty bad. If he’s trying to rile me up, it’s working like clockwork but I won’t give him the pleasure of finding that out.

Somehow, I still care that he’s pretending. He makes small talks, smiles and chuckles like we didn’t make out or live together and it’s annoying me.

I checked the time and it was almost five pm. Once I’m done with this, I’ll leave here and get to my apartment to get ready for Ethan.

Mr Luther said it’s a one time thing so I won’t be seeing him again. Sad part is that it doesn’t matter, all the progress I achieved in three weeks came crashing down due to his little stunt.

“So, how long have you been working here?”

“Three weeks.”

I answered firmly.

“Wow. That’s a short time. Mr Luther speaks really highly of you despite that. He insisted that I come to you specifically.”

My eyes snapped towards me, resting my gaze on him and only him. He just indirectly told me that he didn’t even want to come. Apparently Mr Luther forced him here and that’s the only reason…

“I’m honoured.”

I replied forcing a perfectly good fake smile.

“Alright then. Let’s get back to it. We’re almost done.”

He smiled at me leaving me speechless. How could Stefan do something like this? Why is he doing this to me? At first I thought it’ll just be a passing thing or something but now it’s really getting to me.

Snapping me out of my thoughts was the ringing of my phone. Ethan was calling. I hadn’t noticed time was moving really fast. It was already half past five. If I leave now I’ll get to my apartment by six and I won’t even have enough time to get ready.

“Take your call.”

He indulged. I answered listening to what he has to say.

I’ll be there in half an hour. I hope you’re getting ready.

I’m still at the office. I got caught up with a lot of work.

I avoided the part where I was caught up with Stefan. Explaining that would drain the remaining energy out of me.

Oh, I’ll pick you up from the office then. Can’t you just leave it till tomorrow?

I can’t.

I glanced at Stefan wondering if he would care if I was talking to Ethan.

I might just have to cancel our date, I’m sorry but I can’t abandon this.

It’s alright. I understand.

He sighed dejectedly.

Give me a call what you get home.

Alright. Bye Ethan.

I said purposely.

Bye Lina.

He says before hanging up. I dropped my phone back on the desk facing Stefan.

“You were going on a date with Ethan?”

He asked simply clearly fuming.

“Oh we’re not playing that game anymore.”

I replied mockingly avoiding his questions.

“No. We’re not.”

He responded coldly.

“Answer the question.”

“Pass.”

I replied going back to the files.
