Hey guys so sorry for the late update I've b but I'll try and update the next chapter sooner. Enjoy!

"So when am I going to properly meet Mr.Hot boss? Stacy asked Candace they were currently sitting in her living room couch sipping wine.

"I'm not sure yet these last two weeks have been amazing! Though"

"I bet! What does Amanda think about him?"

"She likes him and Xavier but I haven't told her about us yet. I don't want her getting attached if it doesn't end up working out."

"Yeah I get that...and your co-workers don't suspect anything?"

"I don't think so we've been keeping things low key at the office so I don't think anybody suspects anything going on between us."

"And how does Amanda feel about him?"

"She likes him but I haven't told her anything about that yet."

"And your parents?"

"I haven't said anything to them either.. but I don't think I'm going to say anything to them until I feel like it's getting serious right now we're just seeing where things go."

Stacy nodded "well you seem to really like him as much as he likes you so I'm sure everything else will work itself out."

Candace nodded in agreement and they continued conversing and laughing.

...

The next morning Candace walks into the building and walks straight into the elevator she's about to close the doors when she hears someone yelling to wait before closing the elevator doors. She stops the elevator from closing and sees Leo running inside the elevator.

"Oh hey Leo" she says smiling

"Hey Candace, thank you for waiting."

"Yeah no problem, how was your weekend?"

"It was good and yours?"

"It was good too." She says as the elevator opens up to their floor.

"That's good to hear. Hey me Kevin, Ben and Jenny are going out for lunch. You should join us."

"Um..yeah maybe I'll let you know I'm going to go get started on my work." She says walking away towards her office.

"Okay I'll see later." Leo says walking away in the opposite direction.

She leaves her office door open and sits down on her desk and begins working on her latest case.

...

Two hours later she hears a light knock on the door. "Come in," she says.

"Hey Candace sorry to interrupt you" she hears Ben say as he walks into her office.

"Oh don't worry about it, is there something that you need?" She asks.

"Yes Kevin send me he says he needs the copy for Mr. Evan's?"

She nods "oh yeah I'll get it for you right now." She says standing up from her desk and going over to her files.

"Thanks..." he takes the folder from her hands.

"No problem. Hey..so Kevin, Jenny, Leo and I are going out to lunch and we wanted to know if you wanted to join us?"

Candace looks up at him surprised, "Really? I mean, I would love to but I have a lot of work to do."

"Come on Candace, you always have a lot of work to do. Take a break and join us, it'll be fun."

Candace thinks about it for a moment before finally giving in, "okay fine, let me just finish up this last bit and then I'll join you all."

"Great! See you in a bit." Ben says as he leaves her office.

Candace walked out of her office a couple minutes later and made her way to Mr.Johnsons office.

She lightly knocked on his office door and a few seconds later hears him say "come in"

She enters his office and closes the door behind her.

"Hey beautiful missed me already?" He says standing up from his desk smirking at her.

She lightly chuckles walking over to him. "I actually wanted to let you know that I won't be joining you for lunch today Jenny and the others invited me to lunch again for the fifth time in these last two weeks." She says now standing in front of him.

He lets out a small sigh but nods his head in understanding. "Alright, but I expect you to make it up to me." He says with a playful tone.

Candace smirks and leans in closer to him, her lips barely grazing his ear. "Oh, I definitely will."

She then straightens up and gives him a wink before turning to leave. As she is about to open the door, she feels his hand gently grab her wrist and pull her back towards him. Before she knows it, his lips are on hers, soft and demanding, sending shivers down her spine. She eagerly responds, wrapping her arms around his neck and deepening the kiss. Their tongues dance in perfect sync, exploring each other's mouths with a hunger that has been building up for days. Candace can feel the heat between them, the passion and desire that they both share. She moans softly as his hands begin to roam over her body, his touch igniting a fire within her. She can feel her body responding, craving his touch and wanting more. Mr. Johnson breaks away from the kiss, his breathing heavy as he looks into her eyes with a hunger that matches her own. He leans in and places a soft kiss on her lips. The kiss quickly turns passionate as they both give into their desire for each other. His hands roam over her body, causing her to moan softly. She can feel the heat rising between them and she knows that she wants him right then and there. Without breaking the kiss, he lifts her up and places her on his desk. He begins to unbutton her blouse, revealing her lacy bra. His hands caress her breasts, making her moan even louder. "Shh you gotta be quiet babe" he says softly in her ear. She nods and reaches for his belt and quickly undoes it, freeing his hardening member. He pulls her skirt up and removes her panties, already wet with anticipation. He enters her slowly, enjoying the sensation of her tightness around him. "Oh..my.." he cuts her off with his lips as they move in perfect rhythm. The intensity between them grows with each thrust, and they both know that they are reaching their climax. With one final thrust, they both reach their peak and collapse onto the desk in a sweaty mess.

Afterwards she fixes her clothes and stands up. "I was not expecting that today we usually only do that during lunch but I can definitely get used to that." She says.

He smirks and leans in to kiss her softly. "Yeah well as much as I'd love to take you whenever we have to be careful my assistant could have walked in on us now that I think about it." He says.

She laughs and nods. "You're right, we'll have to be more careful next time." She says, still catching her breath and then leans in to kiss him one more time before heading back to her office.

...

A few hours later Candace stands up from her desk and walks to the break room to meet up with Kevin Leo Jenny and Ben. As Candace approaches the break room, she can hear the laughter and chatter of her colleagues. She takes a deep breath and walks in, putting on a fake smile. She greets everyone and they all seem happy to see her finally joining them for lunch.

"So where are we going?" Candace asks

"We were thinking that Chinese place down the street." Kevin says.

"Okay lead the way." she says as they walk to the elevators and to the restaurant as they enter their met with the host

"Hello table for 5?" She asks and they nod she grabs the menus and leads them to a booth where they sit down Ben and Leo sit together Jenny sits at the end and Candace and takes a seat next to Kevin on the end.

"This is a buffet restaurant so feel free to grab as much food as you'd like" the host says walking away.

They nod and do just that and once they all have their food and are sitting down they start talking.

"So what's been going on with you guys anything new?" Candace ask as they start eating the food.

"Well nothing with me but I heard a rumor a few days ago!" Jenny says excitedly.

"Ooh spill!" Leo says excited to hear the latest office gossip.

"Well apparently Mr. Johnson is having an affair with one of the girls at the office." Jenny says they all dig into their lunch.

Candace's heart sinks at her words. "Umm...where did you hear that from?" She asks trying to sound normal.

"Oh from one of the other girls apparently she's easy to get into bed" Jenny says

"Wow so we have a little skank in the office I see." Leo says.

"Does anyone know who she is? Ben asks intrigued.

"No no one's actually seen her but there's definitely been rumors.

Candace took a deep breath she knows that it's her they're talking about her, but she can't reveal the truth to them. They would never understand her relationship with Mr. Johnson. She can't believe what she was hearing. Her heart dropped as she listened to her colleagues spread rumors about her and Mr. Johnson. She felt a lump forming on her throat as she realizes that these are people she considered friends, people she shares lunch breaks and inside jokes with. But now, they're talking about her in such a hurtful and judgmental way. Feeling a wave of anger and hurt wash over her, Candace stands up from the table and quickly makes her way to the bathroom. She needed a moment to herself to process everything that is happening. As she splashed cold water on her face, she can't help but wonder how her relationship with Mr. Johnson has become the talk of the office. Candace and Mr. Johnson had been careful to keep their relationship a secret. They know that it could cause problems at work, especially since Mr. Johnson is her boss. But they couldn't resist the strong attraction they had towards each other. And now, it seemed like their secret was out and everything was falling apart. Candace took a deep breath and gathered herself before returning to the table. She plastered on a fake smile and tried to act normal, but her mind was racing. She can't believe that her coworkers are so quick to judge her without even knowing the full story. And it hurts even more knowing that she can't defend herself without revealing her secret. Candace couldn't shake off the hurt and betrayal she felt. She couldn't understand why her coworkers were so interested in her personal life and why they felt the need to spread rumors. She had always been a hardworking and dedicated employee, but now she felt like she was being reduced to just a scandalous affair with her boss. She tried to change the subject, but Ben kept pressing for more information. His persistent questioning started making Candace feel uncomfortable and feeling his eyes on her wasn't helping. Just then the timer went off on her phone signaling that she had to get back to her and she never felt so relieved to hear a timer. She quickly got up excusing herself and left she knows she's going to have to have a conversation with Jeremy about this and she's not to sure how he's going to react.
