“Can I see you for the last time?”
That day we went with some friends for the dinner and after that Cherie made appointment with him at his favorite place nearby. The plan was to send Agatha, our common friend to give Giuseppe his ring back. Agatha is a big lady who rise respect, so she was perfect choice for this task. Just after 7:30pm he arrived in one of his sports cars and even before he even left the car, Agatha approached him and asked to wind down the side window. She confirmed that he actually was Giuseppe and gave him back the ring. He was surprised, but drove away after few moments. Few minutes later he was texting Cherie and asking why she did like that? He didn’t want that ring so badly, as to see her. Anyway, our plan was successful and Giuseppe got his ring without involving Cherie, although she has seen this action from a distance.
“YOU are on top of priority now and if getting this job will put our relationship at risks since I will have lesser time for you then I rather want to be with you full time and give you the love, care and attention you need I would be happy to do that.“
After few days Cherie started to be less stressed and more relaxed. I still have those moments in my memory, as I could see her breath and build her self confidence. She also went for interview for a job. She was very impressed with the future lady boss. And she had impression that she liked Cherie as well. We discussed it over two days and after evaluating all pros and cons she declined the job. First, the job as personal assistant would require her to work long hours and be on the phone all the time. Additionally with my tight traveling plans each month, we could be separated too much. And on top of this the money wasn’t the best, even after negotiation, she would earn less than with Sir Johns last job. Somehow she wanted to spend more time with me during that time, and I was thankful for that.
Days passed, I am more self focus and confidence. Less stress from my side as I am not dealing Giuseppe’s messages anymore. Even though Mr. Grey is updating me with regards to their conversation, I didn’t pay much attention to it. I am happy now with Mr. Grey, showing him the love and care that he deserve and working out our developing relationship.
I couldn’t thank him enough for loving me so much and for being there to protect me from Giuseppe. With his kindness, and how truly good person he is, the love and care he showed for me, He deserve to be loved in return. Becoming the best woman I can be and to fulfill my responsibility as a partner to him.
Somehow I need to have a working visa to stay in the Sin City, getting a job is really necessary. I’ve been invited for a job interview as a personal assistant, and I made a really good impression that right after the interview they hire me. The HR then told me to submit the necessary documents to start the visa processing. I was really happy and excited to tell this good news to Mr. Grey.
Later that night, he arrived from his flight. I immediately open the topic to him that I’m hired, I got the job. I would say that the offer is not that much, its even less than what I am getting from my previous job, but as the necessity of getting a visa as soon as possible, I am willing to accept the job offer regardless of the salary. Unfortunately, Mr. Grey is not happy about it. With the years of work experience I have, I deserve to get more. He tried to convince me to negotiate the offer. He is hesitating of me to work too soon as our relationship is still not strong, having a job would somehow lessen my time spend to him. And with regards to our situation, we are still dealing with Giuseppe, so he is not convince that I’m emotionally ready. He wanted to strengthened our relationship, and work will come next.
“Do you really need the job right now?
I don’t think that it’s the best idea to have it, We will not have much time to spend each other, you will have less time for me. I am happy that you got the job, but the salary is not good, maybe If you’ll try to negotiate at least, or wait for another months? You will have another future interviews and will get the salary you deserve, but I also want you to focus the relationship with me. Can you?”
Mr. Grey is right, I have to give more attention of the relationship. I understand that he needs my time, attention and my support. He needs to feel the love, and care. Somehow, Giuseppe is still in the story and the bond I have with Mr. Grey is still not strong enough. With Giuseppe stubborn personality, and persuasive attitude, he is scared that I might go back to him.
I think of his request overnight, pro’s and con’s. And I decided to focus on the relationship with him instead. So I sent him message that night
“YOU are on top of priority now and if getting this job will put our relationship at risks since I will have lesser time for you then I rather want to be with you full time and give you the love, care and attention you need I would be happy to do that.“ And I’m glad that I made him happy for this decision.
The next day, we received a message from Giuseppe asking me to return the ring, and to see me for the last time. Mr. Grey thought that it’s the best idea to return the ring for that meeting without involving me. So he made a plan to send Agatha to handover the ring. The plan was successful, he didn’t expect to received the ring from someone whom he doesn’t know and then he left.
I was in the opposite road and I saw the scene from far, though I was nervous at that moment, but thank God, now it’s over. There is no reason for him to contact me anymore, he had his ring back. I hope he will understand and accept that everything with us is now over!
With the mutual decision to strengthened and focus on the relationship, My full commitment is now with Mr. Grey with the intention to make him feel secure, Im with him, and I choose him.
