Sheryl's POV
“Go on,” Michael gestures. “Continue.”
“Continue what?” Rachel asks, confused, her eyes hinting fear.
“Continue whatever you were talking about,” Michael replies. “About Tatiana? Yeah. The same way you did on television.”
I look over at him. He isn't even worried about how Rachel put his name to shame. Just Tatiana.....
Rachel's face drops into a blank stare, she’s been caught. She seriously didn't think she would?
“Oh, you think I’d never find out?” Michael asks, walking closer to her, still ignoring Karen; who's biting a pretend hang nail.
“They wouldn’t leave me alone.” Rachel stutteres, making up an excuse. Michael's brown eyes go dark with anger.
“So you lie?” Michael snaps. “Do you have any shame, Rachel!? Tati’s in the hospital and if she doesn’t wake up by two weeks, they’re pulling the plug. And you go around making up some absolute lie saying I-I don't care about her?!" he says his voice breaking a little.
"You don’t.” Rachel spats. "After what you did to her?"
I almost lunge at her and Greg grabs my arm pulling me back.
Michael inches close to Rachel, making her inch back a little. “I love Tatiana.” he says slowly an meaningfully letting it sink in.
“And who gives you the right to talk about my sex life?!”
Rachel stays quiet, glaring in his eyes. “And by the way--I fucked her countless times.” He spat, and making everyone's eyes widen.
“As IF you hit it first." Rachels says her lips curling in a smirk, making Michael ball up his fists.
"If they only knew...." I think to myself shaking my head.
"You gave me another good reason to fire you." Michael snaps.
“What?” Rachel choked, her eyes wide.
I cut her eyes between Karen and Michael, staying quiet but watching cautiously. Wanting to kick her ---
“You didn’t hear me?” Michael asks. “Pack your shit Rachel you’re fired.”
“How are you going to fire me?” Rachel questions, standing up to him.
“Over some whore?” Karen butts in.
Ohhhh
child.
“Whore or not Karen, I still love her.” Michael said sternly, shooting her a look. “I’m going to find out the truth, and I won’t be hearing from you.”
“You say you love her, but you fucking Rachel tells me otherwise.” she hisses. I shake away from Greg's grip getting in Karen's face.
"Are we going to have a problem?" I hiss making her step back.
“Don’t bring me into this,” Karen shook her head. “I’m not trying to get fired.”
At that moment Michael turns to Karen. “You’re not trying to get fired?” He asks. “Why do you say that? Is there a reason for me to fire you too?”
“Can I ask you something, Michael?” Rachel asks, slowly crossing her arms.
“You just did.” Michael replied calmly, but staring daggers through her.
“Why’d you sleep with me? To get back at Tatiana?”
Michael looks away guiltily. "A-at the time....yes..." he whispers.
