Chapter 39: Breakfast with the Boss
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 femalepanions 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 ce from her apartment because of her view of his mansion but that she may
have a binocrs,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 bodynguage 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.
Thedy 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 thedy but she felt that thedy 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, mydy friend,though she would have preferred it if he refered
to her as his fiancee. Butdy 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 eyshes 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 wee
development at all.

Phoebe could see her months of scheming on how to be 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 rtionship, she would have staked her im on him but what they had
was an open rtionship and she dated not show her disapproval openly.
She decided that she would make out time to speak privately with Nancy.
