章 99: I Have A Boyfriend

***

Gossip and rumors spread fast in the Sanderman Group's company. It started with one department and then scattered across other departments that even the clerk on the ground floor would look at Elise funny sometimes.

Before Elise even knew about it, people were already calling her the boss's mistress after the situation with Tessa and Julian. Not only was it something that became a well-loved topic amongst colleagues…

It was something that people weren't even afraid to tease her with.

The nickname stuck with Elise all throughout the following days and weeks, even when the time when Tessa and Julian visited was already way past them. 

It even stayed when the last month of the year came up and Elise was working a good chunk at the company. That day, Elise was running some errands for Alex to help her out when she came across some people relaxing in the hallway.
