The deal


    Chapter #21

    Ep 17

    6 April 2020

    It was 8pm and everyone of their team was sending out their final delivery before the lockdown tomorrow. Janice was also personally delivering out the stack of printing papers and printer cartridges to a condo in Bedok before she headed home.

    Her parents had planned to go over to her grandparent’s place to stay as soon as they heard the lockdown announcement because there was no one living with the senior folks.

    Her sister was going with her parents but Janice asked if she could stay at Jim’s place instead. Her parents agreed to her request as there was limited space for sleeping in her grandparent’s place anyway.

    After the hugs and kisses with her family, she made her way to Jim’s home with her luggage at around 11pm while her parents made their way to her grandparent’s place.

    Previously, not long after Janice had moved out from Jim’s inherited 4 room flat, he had rented out the 2 other rooms for additional income.

    Moreover he had just set up his company around the same period of time and was extremely busy and so they would meet up only on a Sunday. However, with the tenants in the flat, she did not like to spend too much time there and most of the time, they would be meeting outside and only have the opportunity to get intimate once or twice a month.

    At the end of last month, when the local cases began to increase, the tenants had negotiated with Jim, paid him 3 months of rent, terminated the lease and went back to their own country.

    So now that Jim had the house to himself and they did not need to work for the next month, Janice was rather excited about the upcoming stay at Jim’s place.

    She had wanted it to be a surprise for him and had not told him about her plans. When he opened the door, he was astonished.

    Jim: Dear!… what are you doing here…..

    She squinted her eyes.

    Janice: are you hiding a girl?….

    Jim: no!!…. Of course not!…… are you moving in?….

    He eyed her luggage.

    Janice: can I?… or shall I return to my parent’s place?….

    Jim: of course..… I’ll like you to stay….. But I need to let you know that the airconditioning is spoiled and I haven’t got someone to repair….. Is that ok with you?….

    Janice: not an issue with me…..

    He was elated and quickly brought her luggage to his room.

    He opened the windows for her and Janice began to unpack her stuff. Since she did not want his help, Jim went to the living room as there was only 1 TV in the house.

    She was waiting for him to go outside. She closed the bedroom door and quickly changed into the clothes that she brought.

    When she walked out into the living room, Jim was stunned to see what she was wearing.

    Janice was wearing her old secondary school uniform. In the past, perhaps the uniform was fitting for her but she had definitely outgrown it.

    The pleated skirt was now as short as a tennis skirt and did not even cover down to her mid thighs.

    The tiny shirt could hardly contain her breasts. Her boobs were pushing against the fabric, straining the buttons on the front of the white shirt and her nipples were clearly visible on the material which had been washed countless times until it was translucent.

    Jim’s flat was the 3rd unit from the lift along the corridor and there were 2 other units after his place. If one of his neighbours was to walk past the open window and look in, the person could see everything that was happening inside the flat.

    However, it was quite some time ago since they had sex and the both of them were not the least bothered about the open window.

    Janice: Teacher….. Why are you staring at me like this?….. I didn’t steal anything from you…..

    Jim was still stunned and Janice went over to him.

    He was sitting on the sofa and she placed her knee on the seat and straddled across his thighs, directly above his crotch, before looking seductively into his eyes.

    Janice: Teacher…. If you don’t believe me, I’ll let you do a body search on me…

    The night air was warm and humid but the sky was red and it looked as if it was about to rain. Suddenly there was a strong gust of wind and the door of his room slammed shut loudly.

    The both of them jumped in fright. Jim recovered first and exclaimed out loud.

    Jim: shit…..

    She had lost the mood to tease him.

    Janice: oops… sorry…. I must have forgotten to latch the door when I came out….

    Jim: no dear…. It’s ok…. But it’s just that the lock is spoiled…..

    She dismounted from him as he was frowning.

    Janice: don’t worry….. I didn’t lock the door…..

    Jim: I know…. What I mean is that the lock is spoiled because it is perpetually engaged…..

    He went to the door and tried to turn the knob but nothing happened.

    Jim: see…. It’s locked…..

    Janice: but earlier, I can open it from inside…

    Jim: yes but like I said, the lock is stuck…. You can open it from inside but I will need the key to open from this side….

    Janice: where’s the key?….

    Jim: I left it on the table in the room when I brought in your luggage earlier…..

    Janice: shit….. Sorry….

    Jim: it’s ok….. I’ll just call for a locksmith….

    Fortunately, there were those advertisement stickers that were pasted on the corridor outside. Jim chose a random one and used his landline to make the call.

    Jim: ok… he’s on the way……

    Jim went to the sofa and sat beside her.

    Janice: ermm…. I’ll pay for the cost later…..

    Before he said anything, Jim was interrupted by a deafening clap of thunder that rattled the window panes and a wicked thought suddenly came into his mind.

    Jim: dear…. You know that If it rains, then my room will be flooded, right?…..

    Janice: yes…. sorry….. I’ll do the clean up later…..

    Jim: no…. I want to punish you….. ermm…. Later when the locksmith is here…. I want you to hang around……

    Ever since 2018, Janice knew that Jim had been curious and envious of her ex-boyfriend after what she told him she did for her ex-boyfriend in the past. However, Jim had never dared to request her to do anything for him since they got together.

    Even the taxi incident when she exposed herself was unintentional. So Janice was a little surprised to hear what he wanted her to do now.

    She spoke softly.

    Janice: ok… as my punishment…. But what do you want me to do?….

    Jim was glad that she understood what he wanted and it made him excited.

    Jim: hmm… I want you to expose your pussy to him…. And maybe tease him a little?….

    It had been quite a while since she exposed herself to others and it made her a little nervous.

    Janice: erm…. Dear…. can I don’t do that?…. I’ll just hang around….. He can see my tits anyway…..

    Jim: no…. It’s your punishment….. remember?

    Just then, the doorbell rang.

    Janice: har?….. So fast?…. He’s here already?…. It’s less than 10minutes…..

    Jim: I guess so…. Just remember your punishment…..

    Jim had got up from the sofa and was heading for the door.

    Janice still had no plan and decided to hide herself first by dashing into Jim’s previous room and closed the door.

    Ep 18

    Jim’s previous room was right next to the master bedroom and so their doors were adjacent to each other.

    So Janice could hear them speaking once they were outside the other room.

    Jim (hokkien): Mr Chen… I didn’t know that you are a locksmith also….

    Chen (H): aiya… government says lockdown… my business cannot operate… so do this as a sideline to pass my time now….

    It sounded to her that Jim knew the person even though he had picked a random locksmith earlier. Janice was curious as to who this Mr Chen was.

    She heard the person set his toolbox on the floor.

    The top button of her shirt was already undone and she undid the second button as well so that her cleavage was now spilling out from the opening.

    She then pulled the waistband of her skirt further up her waist and made it even shorter.

    Once she was ready, she opened the door, stepped out and quickly closed the door behind her. She took a glance at Jim and then at the locksmith before back at Jim again.

    Janice: hey Jim….. what is happening here?….

    Once she saw him, Janice recognized who the locksmith was.

    Chen was the owner of a small furniture shop near Jim’s place. Although they had never bought anything from him before, they had seen him in the shop when they passed it.

    From the corner of her eyes, she could see that Chen was checking out her body. Although she did not mind exposing herself in the past, she was feeling weird now.

    Jim: oh… my door is spoiled…. So I asked Mr Chen to repair…

    Chen (H): is your door spoiled as well?….

    Janice turned to Chen and gave him a blank look. She could not speak Hokkien but she understood what he meant. However, she was pretending that she had no idea what he was saying and turned back to Jim.

    Janice: I don’t understand…. what did he say?…

    Jim caught her intention and explained to her.

    She turned back to Chen

    Janice (mandarin): no… my door is not spoiled….

    Chen was not even looking at her face but his eyes were roaming all over her body. She felt awkward but pretended to be nonchalant to his lustful stares.

    Chen turned to Jim.

    Chen (H): she doesn’t understand Hokkien?….

    Jim(h): no….

    Chen (H): your girlfriend?…

    Jim(H): she’s my tenant….

    Chen(H): then you are a lucky guy…. Did you realize that she is braless?….

    Jim(H): oh… it’s quite normal when she’s home….

    Janice felt like pulling her boyfriend’s ear but she controlled herself.

    Chen(h): have you fucked her before?….

    Jim(H): of course not!…

    Janice almost laughed at his acting.

    Chen(h): do you know if she has a boyfriend?….

    Jim(h): currently i know she is single….

    While the men were speaking, Chen had turned back to ogle at her breasts and somehow, her heart began to pound rapidly.

    Previously this had only happened when she was teasing her ex-boyfriend’s friends. Currently she was not even doing anything and just standing there.

    Moreover Chen was not even good looking. He was a fifitish, bald and fat guy, definitely not visually appealing to her at all. So she should not have any reactions and she did not understand why this was happening to her.

    She guessed that maybe it was because she was performing for Jim for the first time.

    Suddenly, she remembered what Jim had requested her to do.

    Without speaking, she squatted down in front of the toolbox and pointed to one of the tools that was in the box.

    Janice(M): what is this for?….

    She had kept her feet slightly apart on purpose and Chen’s eyes automatically went down between her thighs.

    His eyes opened wide and his jaw dropped for a brief moment when he realized that she was not wearing any undies and he could clearly see her clean shaven pussy.

    He closed his mouth and swallowed his saliva. Although her cleavage was now even more obvious, he was not interested in it. Instead, Chen squatted down in front of her so that he could get a closer view of her naked pussy.

    He was stuttering when he replied to her.

    Chen (M): this…. Erm…. this is for…. for …. Prising open the…. Erm…. lock…..

    She dropped the pick-like tool into the box and pretended to be rummaging through the toolbox to look at the other interesting tools.

    Jim: erm… Janice…. Please don’t disturb Mr Chen….

    Janice: oops… sorry…

    Jim (H): eh… Mr Chen…. Do you mind to help me with the door first?…..

    Reluctantly, Chen replied to Jim.

    Chen (H): ok…. Ok…..

    He reached forward to the toolbox and was surprised that she did not move away. When he picked up the mallet, his hand was less than 30 cm away from her naked pussy and he could just reach out to touch it.

    However Jim was waiting for him to unlock the door and Chen knew that he still had to complete the job.

    Holding the mallet and a sharp pointed tool, Chen stood up and started to work to dismantle the door knob.

    Janice had already done what Jim had wanted by showing Chen her pussy and she had also seen the tent that had formed on the front of Jim’s shorts.

    As such, she could have got up and returned to the room she came out from but she chose to remain where she was because Jim had wanted her to tease Chen and she felt she had not done enough.

    Although when Chen reached for his tools earlier, it was the nearest that a guy’s hand other than her boyfriend’s had gotten so close to her naked pussy and he might have touched her then, she had chosen to remain still because she wanted to tease Chen.

    Obviously Chen had wanted to touch her but he did not dare to.

    Just like in the past, it excites her when she saw how tortured Chen was and decided to tease him further.

    While Chen was working on the door, she discreetly moved her feet further apart so that the outer lips of her pussy would not clump up together and give him a better view. As she was adjusting her position, she could feel a tiny trickle of her lubricant flowing out from her pussy.

    She wanted to see how Chen could control his urges this time.

    Jim turned to look at Janice and she was still squatting on the floor and maintaining her position. Jim knew that she was just doing what he had wanted her to do.

    As if they were bound by telepathy, she looked up at him at the same time and he gave her a reassuring smile.

    Ep 19

    The couple was interrupted by a loud thud on the floor as one of the damaged door knob fell onto the floor.

    They turned to look and Chen had managed to remove the entire lockset from the door. There was a hole on the door and it was already unlocked.

    Chen put the faulty lock on the ground beside the toolbox and squatted down in front of Janice again. He put the mallet back into the box and took a glance at Janice’s pussy. He was stunned when he saw that she was wet.

    At this moment, a voice behind Jim spoke out loudly.

    Carter: Hey Jim!….

    Jim had left the main door opened since the locksmith was here but he was not expecting anyone to enter the house..

    So when he heard the voice and turned his head around, he was shocked to see Carter standing just inside the main door.

    Carter was one of Jim poly’s friends and Jim had already brought Janice out to their gatherings a few times. So Carter knew who Janice was.

    Carter: hey Janice!…..

    Janice did not dare to stand up because of how she was dressed. So she merely turned her head around and waved to him

    At the same moment, Jim realized that Carter might blurt out that Janice was his girlfriend and Jim did not want that to happen.

    If Chen had found out that Janice was Jim’s girlfriend and based on what she had done so far, it might seem that Jim was being cuckolded. So due to his pride, Jim quickly took evasive actions to prevent the situation from happening.

    Jim: Yo…. Carter…. Come!….

    He went over to Carter and ushered Carter towards the kitchen. His plan was to keep Carter in the kitchen until the locksmith left so that Janice could retreat back into the master bedroom to change.

    Jim: Hey…. Janice…. Please help me to settle with Mr Chen…..

    Janice was glad that Jim had ushered Carter away.

    Janice: erm… ok…..

    As soon as they were out of sight, Chen sprung into action.

    Janice’s head was still turned in the direction of the 2 guys while her pussy was still on display in Chen’s direction.

    Before she knew what was happening, Chen reached out with one of his fat fingers and touched her pussy.

    She was not expecting it and her first reaction was to escape from his intrusive fingers. Her legs pushed her forward and her butt fell backwards onto the floor.

    Chen must have been expecting her reactions because he moved in tandem with her. Even before her butt hit the ground, his finger was on her pussy again.

    Everyone reacts differently in adversity and Janice’s mind was almost blank now.

    Although she had exposed herself many times before, this was the first time that a guy other than her boyfriend was touching her and somehow she had forgotten to scream and was not even struggling against him.

    The only thing on her mind was to try to get away from him and she pushed herself backwards along the floor but to no avail because within a meter or so, she backed into a wall.

    All these while, Chen’s finger remained mostly on her pussy and once she could no longer back away from him, he easily found her clitoris and began to rub her swollen nub.

    The pleasure felt by her body was instant as that was the most erogenous place on her body.

    On one hand, she was already feeling horny from teasing him earlier and she wanted to enjoy the sensation but on the other, she was resisting and fighting the feeling because it made her feel disgusted with herself that she was starting to enjoy Chen’s touches.

    Thus, she was also angry with herself for even having such lustful thoughts as she felt it was as if she was betraying Jim.

    She frowned, bit her lips and shook her head. At the same instance, she could feel his finger sliding down along her pussy and moving downwards towards her hole. In response, she stared at Chen angrily, hoping that he would stop and let her go.

    Earlier, when she came out from the room, he was stunned for a moment. Even though she looked young, he knew that she was about his daughter’s age and should not be wearing a secondary school uniform.

    When he noticed that she was braless, he suspected that she might be a KTV girl since he had gone to those venues countless times because of his business dealings. Furthermore, the guy had said that she was not his girlfriend.

    As soon as he saw that she was pantiless, somewhat it seemed to confirm his suspicion about her job but he did not dare to touch her.

    Unexpectedly, after he had dismantled the door lock and looked at her pussy again, he was stunned to find that she was wet.

    With this new finding, all his previous assumptions were thrown out of the window and instead, it gave him concrete evidence of what was actually happening.

    She was purposely exposing herself to him and was getting aroused by it.

    When the guy told her to remain here, it further supported Chen’s evidence because if she was just a tenant, she would have asked more questions to the guy since the instructions were very brief.

    As such, Chen suspected that the 2 of them were a couple in a relationship and the boyfriend had instructed her to tease Chen.

    Once the guy disappeared into the kitchen with his friend, Chen did not wait any more and reached out to touch her. He knew that it was not even a risk because if she shouted, he would say that it was an accident since she was squatting so near his hand.

    Just as he expected, she remained silent and did not even try to fight back or push him away. The only thing she did was to back away from him until she was stopped by the wall.

    Since she was no longer backing away from him, he was able to finally find her swollen clit and began to rub it properly. Her hands remained on the floor beside her thighs and still, she did not resist him.

    As he continued to tease her clit, her face cringed with pleasure. She bit her lips and shook her head and Chen could see that she was enjoying his touch but was trying to prevent herself from moaning out loud.

    At the same time, he moved his thumb on to her clitoris to take over his finger while his finger slid further down her slit, towards her hole.

    She looked directly into his eyes and he recognized the all too familiar come-fuck-me look from a woman who was begging for sex. As such, Chen began to insert one of his fat fingers into her vagina.

    In response, Janice closed her eyes, inhaled deeply and opened her mouth to let off a silent moan. At the same time, she pushed her breasts forward involuntarily and Chen immediately grabbed one of them with his free hand.

    By now, Janice was not thinking any more.

    She opened her eyes to look at him and clenched her teeth so that she would not start to moan as his finger commenced its exploration within her. As Chen was probing her pussy, her blouse seemed to be getting tighter and was restricting her breathing, so she started to undo the buttons.

    Chen removed his hand from her breasts and waited until she had freed her tits from her shirt.

    As soon as they were exposed, he grabbed one of her naked breasts with his hand and squeezed it. At the same time, he placed his mouth over the other breast and began to lick her nipple.

    Her mouth was very close to his ear and he could hear her moaning softly.

    Janice (whispering): ahh….. aah…..

    He looked up at her and whispered to her in Mandarin.

    Chen (WM): sit away from the wall so that your pussy is not under your body…..

    She knew what he meant and moved her butt away from the wall. She leaned her body 45 degrees backwards and put her hands on the floor behind her for support so that her vagina would not be hiding under her body.

    Then she placed the sole of her feet on the ground and spread her thighs wider.

    He smiled.

    Chen (WM): good girl…..

    Janice could feel her vagina being stretched as he squeezed a 2nd fat finger into it.

    Janice (w): aahhhh…..

    He smiled and started to finger fuck her vigorously. She tilted her head back and squeezed her eyes shut. With one hand supporting her body, the other flew up to cover her mouth as she tried her best to prevent herself from screaming out loud.

    Chen continued to fuck her with his fingers as he repositioned himself between her legs. When he was ready, he bent forward until his mouth was just above her pussy.

    In this position, his face was in the way and he could no longer continue to thrust his fingers into her and they returned back to probing her tunnel.

    When Chen was fucking her with his fingers, Janice’s sexual satisfaction was steadily building towards her climax. So once he stopped thrusting them into her, she opened her eyes to find out what was happening and realized that his tongue was reaching out for her pussy.

    Janice (w): oh gawd…..

    Once his tongue found her clitoris, she shivered.

    Janice (w): mmpphhff…… ahh….

    At this same instance, she suddenly felt an extremely tickling sensation in her tunnel. It was as if there were a million ants crawling in her bottom but it was not a painful or gross sensation. It was pure pleasure.

    Jim and her ex-boyfriend had tried to find her G-spot but to no avail. Chen had found it with his finger and it was the first time that she was experiencing this sensation.

    Coupled with the stimulation from his tongue on her clitoris, it was too much for her and all the pent up sexual tension that she had were released at the same time and she had a massive orgasm.

    Her thighs quivered and she pushed her pussy towards his face.

    Janice (w): aarrmmmppphhggg…….

    With his face fully coated with her juices, he stopped licking her pussy and sat up. However, he continued to tease her G spot with his finger.

    At the same time, he held her wrist and guided her free hand onto his crotch. She did not realize it but automatically clenched her fingers around his dick.

    He waited for a few more seconds until her climax reached its peak before extracting his fingers from her vagina.

    Without his fingers to stimulate her, her climax began to subside and Janice slowly regained her composure.

    Ep 20

    Chen (Whispering in Mandarin): Do you like my cock?…..

    It was then that she realized that she was still holding his dick through his berms and retracted her hand immediately in embarrassment. She quickly adjusted her skirt and then began to button up her shirt.

    He chuckled softly.

    Chen (WM): I know you were exposing yourself to me on purpose…..

    She blushed when she realized that he had found out about it.

    Chen (WM): …. And I assumed that this is the first time that you and your boyfriend are playing such a game….. Just to let you know that the next time you play such a game, if your boyfriend is going to leave you alone, you should not continue with the game….…..Because you are very pretty and have a sexy body…. Other guys will not be satisfied just to touch you…. They will want to fuck you……

    She blushed brighter because despite Jim trying to hide the fact that they were a couple, Chen had found out about it.

    Chen (WM): anyway….. I don’t believe that your boyfriend asked you to let me touch you…. So as a man, I will advise you not to tell him about it…..

    She was ashamed of herself and she was actually thinking of telling Jim what had happened after Chen and Carter had left.

    Chen (WM): …. because no matter how much you love him or he loves you, if you didn’t discuss it beforehand to let other guys touch you, there is a high chance that he will be furious and might even leave you…..

    She looked at him in shock. Chen did not seem to be lying to her.

    Chen (WM): But it’s up to you….

    He decided to change the topics.

    He turned away from her and took out 2 locks of different designs from his bag.

    Chen (M): so which one do you want?…

    She pointed to one and he stood up.

    Janice had already finished buttoning her shirt but did not want to go into the kitchen to look for Jim and just stood there as Chen began to install the lock that she had chosen.

    Chen (M): anyway, why don’t you like the friend?….

    He nodded his head in the direction of the kitchen.

    She was surprised that he could even sense that she disliked Carter.

    Chen (M): tch…. I know because you didn’t look pleased when you saw him earlier and I don’t think it was because he interrupted your game…..

    Janice did not see any harm in telling him about it.

    Janice (M): He always borrows money from Jim and doesn’t return the money……. Since they were ex-poly friends, Jim doesn’t mind but I don’t like it and even more so when he belittles my boyfriend……

    Chen (M): hmmm….. I see….

    He did not stop what he was doing and smiled at Janice. It was not a lecherous smile by a warm one.

    Chen (M): Since you let me touch you earlier, in return and only if you want, I’ll teach you how to get rid of the guy from your boyfriend’s life…..

    She blushed but nodded her head.

    Chen (M): ok…. You looked relieved when your boyfriend led him away….. So besides what you have told me, that guy also either stares at you lewdly or says lewd stuff to you or does something that makes you uncomfortable, right?…..

    She was no longer surprised that Chen was able to deduce about it. She nodded.

    Chen (M): good…. Just what we need….

    He told her what she needed to do and she thought about his plan.

    Chen (M): anyway, I’ve finished with the installation.

    He put his tools into the toolbox and stood up again.

    Chen (M): you can check the lock to see if it is fine…..

    Janice went over to the door and tested the lock before turning to face him.

    Janice (M): Thanks…. It’s fine….

    Chen raised his hands towards her but she did not move away.

    Just like what she did earlier when she tried to seduce him, he undid the 2nd top most button of her shirt. Once the button was undone, he grabbed both her breasts and began to tease her nipples gently until they were erect.

    Chen (M): you really have a pair of beautiful tits…

    He grinned.

    Chen (M): Ok…. now go….

    She did not speak and turned to go.

    She went to the kitchen and found Jim and Carter standing by the window. They were holding a can of beer in one hand and a lighted cigarette in another. They stared at her in surprise.

    Carter had always felt that Jim was a loser since their poly days because he was too soft and accommodating. When the first time Jim brought Janice along for their poly gathering, Carter was angry and jealous that Jim had found such a pretty and sexy girlfriend.

    That day, she was wearing a bodycon dress and he had seen how good her figure was and had been lusting after her since.

    He was not sure but perhaps he might have said something or behaved inappropriately towards her, because after that gathering session, she was always keeping a distance from him.

    As such, he was stunned to see that Janice was not wearing a bra now.

    For Jim, he had told her to settle the stuff with the locksmith but he had not seen the guy leaving the house. So he was not sure why she was here as the locksmith might come into the kitchen and Carter might let the cat out of the bag. It would then be a waste of his efforts.

    Moreover, she had previously complained that Carter had tried to get fresh with her so Jim was surprised that she would even let Carter see her without a bra.

    Janice: Dear…. The locksmith wants to talk to you….

    Jim: har?… erm….

    If he was to go out, then Carter might just follow him out.

    Janice: I’ll stay here with Carter…..

    Jim: oh…. Thanks….

    Jim passed her his beer and extinguished his cigarette before he went out.

    From the corner of her eyes, Janice had noticed that Carter had been staring at her tits since she came into the kitchen and she was sure that her erected nipples played a part. Although she did not mind exposing herself to others, she felt a little disgusted that he was the one who was staring now but she knew the trap was set.

    She controlled her emotions and turned to him.

    Janice: so…. Why are you here?….

    He smiled.

    Carter: Come on…. You don’t have to be so unfriendly…. You know, I’ve known your boyfriend longer than you did….

    Janice: You’ve mistaken…. If I am being unfriendly, I would have come in here and just shouted for Jim already….

    She replied coquettishly before taking a sip of the cold beer from the can that Jim had passed to her. She allowed some of the contents to dribble down from her mouth, down her neck and onto her cleavage.

    Janice: oh shit…..

    She removed the can in a jerking motion and spilled more fluids onto her shirt. She could feel the coldness from the beer drenching on one of her nipples and she was glad that her aim was accurate.

    Carter could not believe his eyes as he watched her shirt turn transparent. Her nipple was now completely visible on one side of her wet shirt.

    She began to wipe the shirt with her hand across her nipple, causing it to become even harder.

    Janice: tsk…. Can you get me the cloth on the basin?….

    Carter immediately turned around and took the cloth before turning back.

    Carter: let me help you…..

    She did not stop him as he began to dab the cloth on her shirt on her breasts area. Even when he brushed the cloth deliberately across her nipple, she remained still.

    Carter could hardly believe his luck. As he continued to wipe the cloth on the wet area, he moved his thumb discreetly until it was resting directly on her nipple. Still, she did not respond.

    Even though she felt disgusted by his actions, Janice psyched herself to enjoy his touches. She knew that it was essential for Chen’s plan to succeed.

    Apart from that, she was also waiting for the alarm to sound from Chen’s phone. So once it sounded, she knew it was time for her final act.

    Carter’s hand was still on her breast and he was still discreetly using his thumb to tease her nipple.

    Janice: thanks…. I’ll clean it on my own….

    She reached out with her free hand to get the cloth from him. As soon as his hand moved, she moved her other hand and caused him to knock the can of beer out of her hand and onto the floor.

    Janice: Shit!…..

    She acted as if she was moving by instinct and immediately turned her back to Carter before bending down at her waist to pick up the can.

    As soon as she did that, the back of her skirt rose up above her butt and exposed her pussy to him.

    Carter was stunned when he saw her exposed pussy. Furthermore, it was well coated with her juices and it was a clear indication to him that she had been enjoying his touches.

    As he was staring at her pussy, he saw that she turned her head back and looked at him seductively.

    Even though she noticed that he was staring at her, she did not cover herself up. It was obvious that she was seducing him and without thinking, he reached forward, grabbed butt cheek and slid his finger right between her pussy.

    Janice: ahh……

    She was so wet that he easily inserted his finger into her.

    Janice: AAAH!!!!!! STOP TOUCHING ME!!!!!

    Suddenly, she shouted loudly, took a step away from him and stood up.

    At the same time, Carter realized that Jim and the locksmith were already running into the kitchen.

    They stopped in front of him and stared at his finger which was coated with Janice’s juices.

    Chen’s plan was simple. Since he knew that Carter was lusting after Janice, he wanted her to create a scenario for Carter to molest her.

    Once the phone alarm sounded, Chen would be walking heading for the main door with Jim. Janice would then time her scream so that they would both turn to look at her and catch what Carter was doing to her at that point in time.

    Carter: wait…. I can explain…..

    Jim punched him across the face.

    Jim: YOU BASTARD!!….

    Jim was about to punch him again when the locksmith stepped up and pulled Jim away.

    Chen (M): hey….. It’s not worth it…..

    Jim (M): HE MOLESTED MY GIRLFRIEND!!….

    Chen (M): I know… I saw what he did.…. So let’s call the police……

    Carter: don’t!…. Don’t!!…… I didn’t!… she seduced me!……

    Janice: NO!….. I didn’t!!

    Carter: then why are you not wearing anything underneath?!…..

    Chen was still holding on to Jim and he had calmed down a little.

    Jim: That’s because we had sex and then we got locked out from the room!…. That’s why she’s not wearing any undergarments!!!….. If not, why is the locksmith here??!!!….

    Carter stared angrily at Janice.

    Carter: Tell him that you let me touch your tits…..

    Janice: I never!….

    Carter: what the fuck?!…. You bitch!….

    He made Jim angry again when he insulted Janice.

    Jim: YOU ASSHOLE!!…. YOU’RE SUPPOSED TO BE MY FRIEND!!!…. AND SHE’S MY GIRLFRIEND!!….

    Jim tried to rush forward once more and Chen continued to hold him back while Carter backed into the windows.

    Carter: look Jim…. she seduced me…..

    Jim: DON’T GIVE ME THIS SHIT!!….. Dear, call the police!…. Call the police!!…..

    Carter: hey…. Hey…. wait…. Wait….

    He got down on his knees and his face had turned pale.

    Carter: look…. I’m sorry…. I’m really sorry….. Please don’t call the police…. I can’t afford to go to jail…..

    Jim was still raging and Carter turned to Janice.

    Carter: Janice…. Please…. Please forgive me….. I’m really sorry….. Please don’t call the police….. I still need to work to support my parents……..

    He began to kowtow to her and Janice softened her stand.

    Janice: dear…. Let’s not call the police… I’ll forgive him this time…..

    Carter: oh! Thanks!!! Thanks!!!!……

    Jim: are you sure?….

    Janice: yes….

    Chen let go of Jim and Jim turned to Carter.

    Jim: You’re lucky that she forgives you….. but I don’t want to see you again…. Don’t look for me ever again….. Now…. get lost…..

    Carter got to his feet and dashed out of the house.

    Chen (M): really don’t want to call the police?…..

    Jim (M): it’s fine…. Thanks for your help…..

    Chen (M): I thought you said that she’s not your girlfriend?……

    Jim was embarrassed as he had forgotten about it in the chaos.

    Jim (M): ermmm….

    Chen grinned and turned to Janice.

    Chen (M): …. Are you ok?…..

    Janice (m): yes….

    Janice: dear… Can you help to clean the mess?… I’ll show Chen to the door….

    Jim: ok….

    Jim was glad that she had offered to show Chen to the door since he had embarrassed himself. He went into the toilet and prepared to mop the floor while Janice walked with Chen to the door.

    Janice (M): thanks for your help…..

    Chen (M): no problem…. anyway, you saw how your boyfriend reacted…. .so you better don’t let him know that you let me touch you……

    After Chen left, Jim asked her about Carter. Although she did not want to lie to Jim, it was necessary and she stuck to her story.

    Later that night, when they were having sex, Jim asked her about Chen’s reactions after he went into the kitchen with Carter. Janice told him that she stopped exposing herself once he left her there and he stopped asking.

    After Jim had fallen asleep, Janice recalled everything that happened over the past few hours.

    3 different guys had touched her for different reasons and only 1 was her boyfriend. She felt weird.

    It was necessary to get Carter to touch her because she wanted to protect Jim. She would let Carter do it again if the need arises once more but she hoped that it was the last time he would bother Jim.

    What she could not understand was about Chen. It was the first time that she had ever let another guy who was not her boyfriend touch her.

    She had allowed him to finger her and even let him licked her but did not feel disgusted by it. In fact, she was especially enjoying it when he teased her G spot that she even had an orgasm.

    On the other hand, she felt guilty towards Jim and had initially wanted to declare what she did but after she saw how he reacted towards Carter, she changed her mind.

    She decided that she would rather remain guilty than to lose him and with that thought, she knew it was only possible because she was a slut.

    7 April 2020

    For the whole day, they did household chores together and went out to do takeaways for their meals.

    They had sex only when they were going to bed at night.

    For the remaining period of the lockdown, they did not commence on any new adventurous stuff anymore. Neither did they bring up what happened that night.

    Their life fell into a routine and they were happy to spend time as if they were a newly wed couple.

    25 May 2020

    As for their company, they had discussed and decided that their company was to resume operation when the country reopened.

    However, since only 50% of the employees could be in the office at any one time, Hock Beng was one of the headcount permanently to be in the office as he needed to collect the goods in the morning before heading out for delivery.

    The other person who would be in the office would either be Jim or Bernard since both of them took turns helping out with the deliveries using the company van.

    They all agreed that Janice did not need to be in the office since she could not drive and would not be able to help out with the deliveries.

    In the meantime, Janice managed to get permission from her parents to extend her stay at Jim’s house since they would also remain at her grandparent’s place.

    Hock Beng did not need to be in the office today since there was nothing to be delivered.

    Bernard wanted to do a stock take after almost 2 months away while Jim needed to do some paperwork and so they returned to the office.

    Janice remained in his house alone.

    She ate bread for breakfast and after that, she began to call her existing customers first.

    However, most of her customers were still working from home and she could not reach most of them. As such, at 11 am, she decided to head downstairs to buy her lunch before coming back to continue with her calls.

    She was surprised that there were a lot more people outside today and only when she reached the shops area did she realize the reason for that.

    It then struck her that to get to the coffeeshop, she had to pass by Chen’s shop. Over the past few weeks, his shop was closed due to the lockdown and she did mind walking past but his shop might be open today.

    She could flank around the other side to get to the coffeeshop but it would mean that she had to walk a lot further.

    On the other hand, Chen might not be in the shop or since she was wearing a mask, he might not recognize her. Moreover Janice was not afraid of him except that it felt awkward for her to see him again as she had an unwanted sexual episode with him.

    Feeling awkward will not hurt her and she decided to continue in the direction that she normally used.

    She was not looking into the shop when walking past but Chen had spotted her and called out to her.

    Chen (M): eh…. Janice…..

    He had helped her with Carter so out of courtesy, she stopped.

    Janice (M): Hi Mr Chen…..

    Chen (M): come…. Come…..

    Reluctantly, she went into his shop.

    It was the first time she went into his shop and it was like any neighbourhood furniture shop. There were dining tables, cupboards, beds and other items, all on display within the shop.

    The interior was well lit and Chen led her towards the back of the shop.

    There was a desk and behind it was a director’s chair which Janice assumed was Chen’s seat. Across the table where the guest would sit, there were 2 swivel chairs for the guest.

    A cupboard blocked off these furniture from the front of the shop.

    Chen (M): come… sit…. Sit….

    He gestured her to an armchair that was not hidden behind the cupboard. He sat on a stool next to it.

    Chen (M): so, is the guy still bothering your boyfriend?…..

    Janice (M): no…. Thanks for your help…..

    Chen (M): good….

    He realized that she was alone.

    Chen (M): where’s your boyfriend?…..

    Janice (M): he’s working today…..

    Chen (M): ah…. I see….. So you’re not working today?….

    He took a quick glance at the T-shirt and shorts that she was wearing.

    Janice (M): I am…. But I’m going to buy my lunch….

    Chen (M): I see…..

    She quickly tried to bring his attention back to their conversation.

    Janice (M):I’m doing sales…. So I’m working from home….

    Chen (M): oh…. So what do you do?….

    She briefly told him what their company did and he raised his eyebrows.

    Chen (M): Hmm…. I see…. Is your company facing any challenges from your suppliers? If so, let me know…. I know quite a few people in your industry….. And I might be able to help….

    Janice (M): thanks…. That’s handled by one of our partners….. But we need to get more sales first…. Anyway, I’ve got to go….

    Chen (M): good luck…..

    She bought her lunch and went home and continued with her cold calling. Although Chen did not ogle at her or said any lewd stuff, she was still uncomfortable speaking to him.

    After that day, whenever Janice went to the coffeeshop on her own, she would always take the longer route so that she did not need to go past Chen’s shop.

    29 Jun 2020

    Over the past month, both Jim and Janice were closing quite a number of new deals and their business had picked up considerably.

    Bernard was having difficulties trying to keep up with the orders and so he began to neglect his deliveries duties. To ensure that there was no delay in receiving the items the customer had purchased, instead of doing deliveries 2 days a week, Jim had to take over Bernard’s additional 3 days of deliveries duties.

    With Jim doing deliveries 5 days a week, his sales suffered and the 3 of them met up at a coffee place near their office to have a discussion.

    Jim: I am thinking of getting another delivery driver….

    Bernard: I am thinking that I need help….

    Jim: Aren’t you doing fine handling the operational matters if you don’t do any deliveries?…..

    Bernard: yes but I prefer to have someone to help me out with the suppliers while I can take over my part of the deliveries again…..

    It did not make sense to Jim because employing a delivery person was cheaper than someone in operation but Bernard’s point was that the issue started because he was overwhelmed with the orders and became the bottleneck. So having an additional headcount for him would solve the issue for them.

    Eventually, they agreed that Bernard would source for someone in procurement while Jim would source for a driver but they would hire whoever was cheaper.

    14 July 2020

    Bernard informed them that he had found a candidate and arranged for them to interview the person. Jim was available but Janice was meeting a customer but she would join them as soon as her meeting ended.

    Bernard had already met the candidate previously but still he wanted to join Jim for the interview. So he arranged for them to meet up with the candidate at a coffee place. When Jim asked him for the resume, Bernard said that the candidate would give them a copy when they met up.

    Jim was surprised that the interviewee was a young woman around Janice’s age. One looked at her, he already knew the reason why Bernard had selected her as the candidate. She was completely Bernard’s type of woman.

    The candidate handed Jim her resume and after reading it, Jim knew the reason why Bernard had not sent him her resume in advance.

    The interviewee was working for a few years but her experience was as a cabin crew.

    During the interview, Jim also found out that she was asking for a much higher salary than what they could afford.

    The interview did not take too long and after she left, Jim questioned Bernard about it.

    Jim: bro…. She’s obviously not suitable….

    Bernard: eh come on man…. She’s hot….

    Jim: yes…. But we’re not looking for a girlfriend here… we’re getting a staff…..

    Bernard: can’t we be more flexible?…..

    Jim: Let’s not talk about her experience….. Just her salary alone….. You should know that we can’t afford that price…..

    Jim continued to reason with him but Bernard began to get a little upset.

    Jim: you are being unreasonable here…..

    Bernard: no… you are not understanding….

    Jim: We are talking about our business here…. Not about getting a girlfriend for you…..

    At this moment, Janice arrived and she was shocked to find that the guys were arguing.

    After she understood what had happened, she tried her best to defuse the situation by not taking any sides.

    Eventually, both the guys simmered down but left the place separately.

    15 July 2020

    Jim cut Bernard some slack over the interview yesterday and gave him another week to source for a proper candidate who could do the operational job and yet be cheaper than a delivery person.

    A week passed by but Bernard was unable to find anyone.

    As such, they hired another delivery person and the new employee commenced work on 3rd of August.

    31 July 2020

    Their profits were rather substantial for that month and Jim gave Bernard, Janice and himself a small performance bonus. With that bonus, Bernard stopped sulking and returned back to his normal self.

    3rd August 2020

    Due to the new regulations by the government, they could not all be present in the office at the same time as the 2 delivery staff were already there. So Jim, Bernard and Janice met up at the coffeeshop near their office for a meeting session.

    Jim was drinking his cola when someone accidentally knocked into him from behind and caused him to spill his drink all over his pants.

    As his girlfriend, Janice automatically pulled out some tissues and began to wipe the stains that were on his thighs.

    Bernard was still in the dark about their relationship and was watching her reactions curiously.

    Bernard: I wished that I was the one who had spilled the drink instead…..

    Janice realized what she was doing and quickly removed her hand from Jim’s thighs. She turned around and slapped Bernard’s shoulder playfully.

    Janice: Of course if you are the one who spilled the drink, I’ll help you to clean as well…..

    He laughed and Jim excused himself to the toilet to clean up the mess.

    Bernard: hey babe…. I haven’t asked you about this since you came to work with us…..

    Janice: what is it?….

    Bernard: Is your boyfriend back from overseas?….

    She thought about it before she replied.

    Janice: I don’t know…. Ivan and I have already broken up…

    Bernard looked surprised.

    Bernard: oh… I’m sorry I didn’t know….

    Janice: don’t worry… it happened some time back…..

    Bernard: so are you attached now?….

    Jim had told her that he had not told Bernard about their relationship and there was no point for her to divulge it now.

    Janice: nope….

    Bernard: hmm…. Then I have a chance now?

    Janice: haha….. We are good friends……. So don’t go there…..

    Jim came back and Bernard stopped asking her about it.

    21 August 2020

    Janice had been chasing a large deal that was worth 100k for over a month now and the client called her this afternoon to go over to their office to sign the contract.

    Once she collected the signed copy of the contract, she made her way to the office since Jim was in the office today.

    By the time she arrived, it was already 5.30pm and Jim was busy typing at his desk.

    Janice: Jim… anyone still in the office?…

    Jim: Both delivery guys had already left for the day and so only I’m the only one left….

    She went over and stood next to his desk.

    Janice: dear… I have something to show you….

    He stopped typing into his computer and looked up.

    Jim: yes dear?….

    She placed the contract on the table and when he saw it he got up and hugged her with joy.

    Jim: YEAH!!…. Dear…. That’s a good contract for us!!…

    Janice: so where are you going to bring me for dinner to show your appreciation?….

    She was not wearing anything provocative today. Just a plain white-front buttoned shirt and a black A-lined skirt that went down all the way to her knees.

    However, her period had just ended a few days back it had been slightly over a week since they last had sex.

    Jim was still hugging her and with the sudden piece of good news, he got a little frisky and began to neck her. At the same time, he began to grab her breasts.

    Janice: ah…. dear… you’ll crumple my shirt……

    Jim: mm…. I’ll try not to…. Mmm….. crumple it then….. Mmm……

    He began to unbutton her shirt but she did not stop him.

    Janice: we’re in the office…..

    He had already undid all the buttons and pulled the tails of her shirt out from her skirt. He started to slide his lips from her neck down towards her breasts while removing her shirt with his hands.

    Jim: sshh…..

    Once her shirt was removed and she was standing there just in her bra, Jim held her hands behind her back. Using his chin, he pushed the cups of her bra down to expose her nipples.

    He looked at her and licked her nipples slowly, one after the other.

    Janice: ah…..

    He pushed one of his thighs between her legs and lifted it upwards until it was sitting directly on her crotch. Once she began to gently rocked her bottom on his thigh, Jim released her hands.

    She lifted his face from her breasts and leaned forward to kiss his lips.

    After all these years of making love to her, he knew what she wanted next.

    Even as their lips were locked together, Jim removed his thigh that was between her legs and unzipped her skirt. Once it was free from her waist, he let it fall onto the floor.

    At the same time, she had already removed his pants and boxers.

    She broke from their kiss and took a step back from him so that she could remove her thongs, followed by her bra.

    Once she was completely naked, she sat on his desk and opened her legs to show him her pussy. She spread her lips with two fingers while inserting her middle finger into her vagina.

    Janice: How about doing your job and giving this pussy a good lick?…

    Jim squatted down and began to lick her pussy.

    Janice: aahh…….

    Bernard had left his phone charger on his desk in the office yesterday and did not realize it until when his phone announced that it was running out of battery in the evening today.

    Once he remembered that he had left it in the office, he made his way there.

    Their main office door was glass and they had purposely built a partition to block the view from outside so that strangers walking past their door could not look inside their office.

    So when Bernard entered the office, he could not see inside and at the same time, Jim and Janice could not see him. So the couple did not know that he had entered the premises.

    However, Bernard was able to hear Janice asking someone to lick her pussy and he was stunned.

    He walked quietly past the partition and when he saw how Janice was spreading her pussy for Jim to lick, his cock sprung up in his berms immediately.

    Bernard could not believe his eyes and initially thought that they were in a friends-with-benefits relationship as Janice had recently told him that she was unattached. He thought that perhaps he might also have a chance with her and decided to continue to watch quietly.

    Janice: stop licking me…. I want your cock…..

    Jim stood up and pushed his cock into her.

    Janice: aahhh…… yesss…….

    He began to fuck her slowly.

    Janice: dear….. Aahh… Lick my breasts……

    Bernard blinked his eyes. He just heard Janice calling Jim “dear”. Did she make a mistake in her aroused state?

    Jim: no…. I want to hear it dirty…..

    He continued to thrust his cock into her.

    Janice: aah……. Dear….. Lick my tits…… aaaahhh……

    This time it was loud and clear. There was no mistake that she was calling Jim “dear” and it can only mean that they were not in the friends-with-benefits kind of relationship but were actually in an actual relationship.

    Bernard was shocked and somehow, he felt hurt and blurted out loudly.

    Bernard: how long?!…..

    His voice shocked the couple. Jim pulled his cock out from her and scrambled to pick up his pants from the floor in order to cover his crotch while Janice got off the table and hid behind Jim.

    Jim: erm…. Sorry…. We got a little too excited…..

    Bernard: HOW LONG?!…..

    Janice spoke softly.

    Janice: how long what?

    Bernard: HOW LONG HAVE YOU 2 BEEN TOGETHER?!

    They spoke together.

    Jim: ermm…. 3 months…..

    Janice: 1 week…..

    The timelines that they provided were different and Bernard knew that they were lying.

    Bernard: tell me the truth…..

    Janice: I got together with Jim after I joined the company…..

    Bernard: but 2 weeks back you told me that you’re single…..

    She kept quiet.

    Bernard: and you!….

    He pointed at Jim.

    Bernard: you previously told me that you’re not interested in her…. And you knew I courted her before….. So as a friend, you should have told me that you are already in a relationship with her!….

    Jim: bro… I can explain…. I didn’t want to tell you because I’m afraid that I’ll hurt you…..

    Bernard: So you already have a girlfriend and yet you mocked me about employing a staff to be my girlfriend!!!!….. fuck you!….. FUCK THE BOTH OF YOU!!……

    He turned around and ran out of the office.

    Janice: ermm…. Dear…. He is really angry….. Should we go and look for him….

    Jim: let’s give him some time to cool down…. He should be fine after a few days….

    They were in no mood to do anything after that. They got dressed, went for dinner before heading home.

    24 August 2020

    Bernard did not go to the office that day and Jim thought that he was still sulking and left him alone.

    As they had to start to fulfill the order that Janice had signed the contract with last Friday, Jim began to call up the suppliers that Bernard had been working with.

    60% of the items in the contract were general items that were easily sourced from any of their suppliers but for the remaining 40% of the items, there was only 1 supplier who could provide those items.

    This was the supplier that Bernard had a very close relationship with and had helped Jim in the past when he was in his previous company.

    During the proposal stage, Bernard and Janice had worked with this supplier to cast a specialized mold to produce a customized cabinet. They had then submitted the completed sample to the customer and the contract was signed based on this sample.

    Jim called up the boss.

    Jim (Hokkien): Mr Lim….. we won the project…. Can you send your contract across?… we need you to start working on the cabinets soon…..

    Lim (H): eh…. Jim…. sorry…. I’ve decided not to go ahead to do the project…..

    Jim (H): har?!…. Why?!…..

    Lim (H): I know business is business but Bernard said he is resigning from your company and I have a very good working relationship with him and don’t want to spoil it…… moreover, your company is not giving us a lot of business anyway….. so I’m sorry….

    Jim was shocked by the news.

    Jim (H): but you can’t do that to me…. The contract with the customer had been signed….. And you have the ready mold…..

    Lim (H): sorry Jim…. I’ve made my decision….

    Jim (H): can I go over to your office now?…. We can discuss the terms….

    Lim (H): please don’t come over…. Let’s not make this ugly….

    Jim (H): Mr Lim… at least you can sell the mold to me…..

    Lim (H): Maybe you should speak to Bernard and settle your differences first…. I don’t want to be your middleman….

    With that, Lim hung up.

    This supplier was very important to them because there was a liquidated damages clause in the contract with the client for any delay in the delivery of the items.

    Jim immediately called Bernard but was unable to reach him as he had switched off his phone. As such, Jim headed to Bernard’s place.

    When he arrived, Bernard’s mum told him that Bernard had told her that he would be staying at his friend’s place for the time being. When Jim tried to ask for the friend’s address, Bernard’s mum was unable to provide any additional information because she had no idea where her son was staying.

    Jim was frustrated and went back to the office.

    He called up Janice and told her what had happened. She was as shocked as him.

    Jim asked her for the templates of the molds so that he could quickly get some other suppliers to do it for him. However, she told him that the template files were in Bernard’s laptop and since he was unreachable, they could not retrieve the templates.

    30 minutes later, Janice had reached the office.

    They tried to call up all the people that knew Bernard but none were able to provide them with Bernard’s whereabouts.

    Left with no choice, Janice and Jim began to rework on the templates.

    25 August 2020

    They managed to complete the templates and began to source for another supplier to build the items for them.

    26 August 2020

    After calling for the whole of yesterday, they were still unable to find any suppliers who could build the molds for them in time.

    This would mean the customer will charge their company liquidated damages for the delay.

    Although Jim would not be directly affected since their company was a private limited, their company would not be able to pay for the damages. As such, this would lead them to insolvency proceedings and their company would be bankrupted.

    Of course if their company ceased operations, Jim could look for another job but he had poured all the inheritance that he had received from his parents into the company and for sentimental reasons, he did not want it to close down.

    Janice could tell that Jim was feeling extremely stressed over this and she felt entirely responsible for the entire episode because she was the one who had signed the contract and if she had stopped Jim on Friday, then Bernard would not find out that they were a couple and this situation would not have occurred.

    This morning, Jim told her that he was going to a few locations that he knew Bernard patronized to look for him.

    Janice wanted to help but Jim told her to stay at home and try to continue to call other suppliers to see if anyone would be able to complete the project on time.

    After he went out, Janice began calling but just like all others suppliers yesterday, none could build the cabinets in time.

    Angry and frustrated, she stopped calling at 11.30 am and went out to get her lunch.

    She was deep in her thoughts and did not realized that she had taken the shorter route to the coffeeshop.

    When she was walking past Chen’s shop, he called out to her.

    Chen (M): morning Janice…it’s been a long time since I saw you…. Busy?

    She was in no mood to speak to him and just nodded and continued walking.

    When she was queuing at the coffeeshop, she suddenly recalled something that Chen had mentioned previously.

    Although she did not want to look for him if possible, she decided that he might be able to help her.

    Instantly, she stopped queuing and went back to look for Chen.

    He was sitting at a desk that was near the back of the shop and he was surprised to see her so soon again.

    Chen (M): you’re looking for me?….

    Janice (M): yes….. Mr Chen…. I want to ask you something…..

    Chen (M): what is it?…

    Janice (M): since you said you know a few people in my industry previously, do you know this supplier?…..

    It was a long shot but she told him the company name.

    Chen (M): hmm…. This company supplies customized and standard furniture…. And the owner is Lim, right?…

    Chen took out his phone to show her the number. There was a ray of hope for her.

    Janice (M): yes!…. Are you close to him?….

    Chen (M): yes… I have known him for a long time….

    Janice (M): really?!….

    She began to get excited as Chen might be able to help her to convince Mr Lim.

    Chen (M): tell me your story first…..

    She told him everything but left out the part that Bernard had caught her having sex with Jim.

    Chen (M): I see….. So this Bernard guy is jealous that you are attached to Jim and not him….

    Janice (M): yes…. Can you speak to Mr Lim and help me?….

    He dialed the number.

    Chen (Hokkien): oui…. Lim…. long time no see… how are you?….

    After what happened at Jim’s house previously, Janice already knew that Chen knew that she understood Hokkien.

    Chen (H): no lah…. It’s just a catch up session…. Haha….

    Lim was speaking over the line.

    Chen (H): ok…. Keep in touch…. Bye….

    He hung up and Janice blinked her eyes in confusion.

    Janice (M): Mr Chen, why did you hang up?….

    Chen (M): Just to show you that I know Lim personally…

    Janice (M): yes…. I already believe you….. Can you call him again?…..

    Chen did not speak, cocked his head and looked directly into her eyes.

    Janice suddenly realized that in her anxiety, she had missed out the fact that there was no reason for him to help her.

    Even though he did not speak, she knew what he was insinuating.

    Janice (m): erm… I’ll think of something on my own….

    She stood up, turned away from him and headed towards the front of the shop.

    This is also why businesses should keep cloud backups rather than local files. Can avoid the situation like this.

    unfortunately in real life, I have encountered some of these kind of people before.

    Anyway, updates coming up
