Chapter 130 Dazed

• Juliet went back into the coffee shop and sat there for thirty minutes; she stared at her coffee the whole time but didn't take a sip from it and by the time she left, it was cold... She sighed deeply when she came out of the coffee shop and realised that her phone and purse weren't with her, so she had to take a twenty-minute walk back to her office... the work felt longer than twenty minutes to her. It felt more like two hours. Lana's eyes were immediately piqued with interest as soon as Juliet walked in, but Juliet headed straight to sonia's office before anyone could say anything to her. She knocked on the door and pushed it open when Sonia asked her to come in. Sonia was seated and going through a manuscript on her computer... she raised her eyes to look at Juliet and took off her glasses when she saw the look on Juliet's face. She had been surprised to see Michelle at her office when they hadn't even spoken or seen each other in years, but when Michelle had causally started asking about one of her employees, Juliet, solid was smart enough to put the pieces together because why on earth would Michelle come to her office just to ask about Juliet. she sighed deeply and gestured to Juliet to take a seat, which Juliet did. "I know it's a bit too early for me to ask since I come in once a month, but can I go home early today? I'm not feeling too well," Juliet said and Sonia, who knew that Juliet had left and followed after Michelle like Lana had narrated, nodded. "I have no idea what is going on between you and Michelle Graham Juliet, but I hope you have everything under control. Michelle can be a bit annoying sometimes. Make sure you watch your back, dear, " Sonia said before Juliet left her office, and Juliet nodded...
• Juliet walked straight to her cubicle and started to pick up her things so she could go home. She wanted to take a nap. "Are you leaving already? It's barely even twelve yet," Lana asked, and Juliet paused and turned to look at her coworker. "I'm not feeling too well," Juliet said, and Lana smiled at her. She knew it had something to do with Michelle Graham. "You should get some rest, do you want me to call you a taxi?" Lana asked, but Juliet shook her head. "I will be fine on my own,", Juliet said and smiled at the rest of her coworkers before heading out for a minute juliet walked to the bus stop and waited for the bus that always took her home, but not to Alex Penthouse, but the house she had lived with her room.. she sighed deeply when the bus arrived and she just stood there and watched till the bus filled up and then drove away. she then walked away and waved herself a taxi... the penthouse was empty when she arrived, Alex was at work and wouldn't be back until a few hours she went up straight to her room hoping a nap would help, but she ended up only tossing and turning on the bed... she closed her eyes, but time only seemed to pass while she laid there wide away... she sighed exasperatedly and got up in a sitting position. "I should have just remained at work," Juliet muttered as she got out of bed and went downstairs and sat in the living room... As she sat there staring blankly at the TV, she thought about Michelle and the life she must have livedDidid sly care about Alex? she wondered. Was that he of or showing she caredOror perhaps shy wanted to help Alex, but no matter how Juliet tried to think about it, she just couldn't wrap her head around Michelle's actions she be able to understand if she heard from Michelle's point of view instead. was she a tormented mother who thought her child could heal from facing the cause of his trauma but had bemistakenake?
