then.”
Wayne sat behind his
desk and looked over the files Richard had drawn up for him. Some
of it made sense, while the rest sounded a little complicated. He
couldn’t get her out of his mind, and it affected his ability to
work. Wayne heard her come back. He wondered what she’d bought. A
bikini or a full costume?
He glanced over at the
clock and wanted the meeting over.
“You really don’t care
what I’ve got to say, do you?”
“I trust you, Richard.
Get it done.”
Wayne stood from his
seat and left his office.
Chapter
Six
The shop downstairs had
been packed full of women, and she hated shopping at the best of
times. The great relief was when a shop assistant helped her to
pick out the simple two-piece suit. Looking at the flimsy garments,
she wondered if her splurge should be taken back. Being back in the
comfort of his apartment was welcome. She’d never been one for
shopping. Having a large figure while size zero women shopped
always made her feel like a sore thumb.
Never being a small
woman, she knew she wouldn’t be on the catwalk anytime soon.
Sighing, she pulled off her dress and underwear, stood in front of
the mirror to gaze at her reflection. She wondered what Wayne saw
in her. Her legs were too large, her hips too wide, belly rounded
instead of flat. Her breasts were pert and a handful even to
her.
When she was around
Wayne, he made her feel small and dainty. No choice left, she put
on the deep purple costume. There were ties at one of her hips for
the briefs, and she’d need someone to help with the top part. The
top consisted of two cups held together by flimsy string. She tied
one part around her neck and then moulded the fabric over the large
breasts to give her some respect. Why couldn’t she have been given
a decent pair? Ones that weren’t the size of melons. Lily went in
search of Wayne to help with the ties.
She walked into the
hall and crashed into a hard muscular chest she wasn’t accustomed
to. Firm hands held her steady.
“I’m so sorry,” she
said as she looked at Richard. Lily was mortified he’d caught her
semi-naked.
“No need to be sorry
when a half-naked woman crashes into me.”
Wayne came round him,
and his gaze skimmed her body. The blush heated her cheeks and
chest. She couldn’t see it, but she knew it was there.
“I-I....” She stopped
and licked her lips. “Could...you...could you please do me up?” She
gave him her back and then remembered her ass was on display.
Lily squeaked and spun,
the top slipping. A breast popped free. She squealed and ran from
the men.
Lily heard them talk,
and then seconds later, Wayne was back in his office and stared at
her, amusement shining in his eyes.
“I’m so sorry.” Her
father, use to call her many names, including an embarrassment, and
here she’d proven it. What other woman would go around with the
threat of a boob falling out as she did?
“You don’t need to
apologize. Unless you were intending to sneak away with Richard
while my back was turned,” he said.
“I guess that was a
joke.” Wayne put a finger to his lips and shushed. “Don’t tell
anyone. You’ll spoil my reputation.”
Lily couldn’t stop her
laugh, and before long, she saw him respond in laughter. The
laughing was infectious.
“Turn around. I’ll tie
it up.”
“I’m not wanting to
swim anymore. I feel like a whale,” she complained. Lily shook her
head not knowing why she mentioned her insecurity. Most women had
weight issues. The women who travelled in Wayne’s social circles
were notorious for being super slim. The classic size zero.
They’d had a pool at
home, and she used to love soaking in the sun and taking a swim.
George and Jessica hired a pool boy to clean it, and then Stephanie
was out every opportunity to tease her, shooting nasty comments
about her size and the way she looked.
Shame when the pool boy
laughed at the cruel words. That had been about three years ago,
before the staff were let
