Chapter 39

Nancy had been living with Jason but in her quarters for about a week before Phoebe made her appearance again at the Campbell's mansion.

She had decided not to act too clingy. She decided that the only way to make Jason miss her was to keep a little distance from him. So for about a week,she had stayed away.

Jason had not been bringing female companions to the house but he met with them outside. Phoebe had the privilege of visiting him only because she lived just a stone throw from him and the window of her apartment overlooked his mansion.

There were alot of things she noticed that got Jason thinking that it may not just be that she could see the happenings in his place from her apartment because of her view of his mansion but that she may have a binoculars,that made what she saw clearer.

He had dismissed the thought thinking that she had no reason to spy on him that way.

It was a Friday night and she came and spent the night with Jason though he would rather not have had her visit. He was beginning to get tired of the frequency of her visit but he was too cultured to tell her so. He thought that his body language would be enough to put her off but she seemed to be oblivious to it.

The next day was a Saturday. Jason had got his emotions under control after telling himself all the reasons why he could not allow himself to be attracted to Nancy.

He asked Nancy to have breakfast with him. Do they had been having breakfast together every morning and they would go to work together and when he had to get to somewhere before the office, he always called her a cab or dropped her off at the office before being on his way. They were growing close and most times, they would discuss about the office work and the schedule for the day on the dinning table and on the way to the office.

Jason felt that he could not have been luckier having such a secretary as Nancy. She was a fast learner' and did her work efficiently.

She was also so humble and easy going. All his household staff had grown to love her in the short space of time that she had been living with them

She was also hardworking. Though that was the part that they didn't really agree

But they had agreed to disagree.

Nancy, not knowing that there was a female visitor in the house had brought Jason's breakfast as usual enough for both of them, though she was surprised that Mrs. Potts had made more food. Nancy had simply thought that Jason must have specially requested for that

She had her cup of tea because she could not tolerate coffee

And this had started since her pregnancy.

She set the tray on table and was shocked that the table had been set for three, not two as usual.

'Good morning Sir'

'Good morning Nancy', he replied softly.

'Are we expecting someone to join us?' she asked as she took her seat at the table.

Before Jason could say anything, Someone entered the room and Nancy looked up into the eye of a beautiful woman.

The lady was not very young as she was but no one could deny her beauty. And she was really curvy with flowing curly chestnut hair.

'Yes, I shall be joining you'.

Nancy could not take her eyes off the lady but she felt that the lady did not like her. It was not in anything she said or did but there was this hostile and threatening look in her eyes as she smiled at Nancy that put Nancy on her guard.

'Phoebe, this is Nancy, my personal secretary. Nancy, Phoebe Walkman, my friend'.

Phoebe did not like the way Jason had introduced her. She felt that they were more than just friends and he could have said something like, my lady friend,though she would have preferred it if he refered to her as his fiancee. But lady friend would have sufficed but she was going to make this girl know in no uncertain terms that they were definitely more than just friends.

'Jason darling, but what is your personal secretary doing here having breakfast with you?' she asked, her voice dripping honey as her eyes shot daggers at Nancy, then she turned and smiled sweetly at Jason.

'She is living in the quarters and we have developed a ritual of having breakfast together before going off to work. It is a perfect arrangement that is mutually beneficial'. Jason said eating his breakfast with a great appetite.

'Nancy,why are you not eating? Please eat so that you can tell me some of the programs I have for next week'. he said ignoring Phoebe.

Phoebe was not very happy about this. They ate in silence for a while, each lost in their own thoughts.

Phoebe looked at the girl called Nancy through her eyelashes and was consumed with jealousy. Nancy was very beautiful. Even that early and without makeup, her skin was translucent and wrinkle free. One could see that she had not just beauty but youth as well. Her shape was great. Though the tea shirt she wore was on the big size,her firm breasts were still visible and her firm buttocks in the jean she had on was an indicator that she was a beauty. If she were to dress up with the right make up and jewelry, then Phoebe was afraid that she would be no match for Nancy.

And she was living here and having breakfast with Jason every morning. Who knows what else, they were sharing apart from breakfast and a ride to work.

They were close at home and at the office as well. This was dangerous and not a welcome development at all.

Phoebe could see her months of scheming on how to become Mrs Campbell going to waste and her efforts, going down the drain.

She had to do something to stem this development before it got out of hand. But how was she going to do it. If they had had a normal relationship, she would have staked her claim on him but what they had was an open relationship and she dated not show her disapproval openly.

She decided that she would make out time to speak privately with Nancy.
