ZYRA. “Sí. Helix es una buena opción a peser de que tiene sus defectos. (Yes. Helix is a good option even though he has his flaws.) Mi equipo y yo vamos a comprobarlo hoy. (My team and I are going to check it out today.) Vale, vale. (Okay, okay). Te haré saber cómo va. (I’ll let you know how it goes.) Ay. Gracias. De acuerdo. Adiós. (Aww, thank you. Okay. Bye.)” I just got off the phone with Gabriela. Kennedy had gotten the land, and Elodie got everyone in position. All we had to do was go there and start work. “You heard them babes, let’s start moving.” They shouted and got into our company truck. I laughed. I’ve seen this excitement before. Working for Mr. Lane. Speaking of him, Elodie told me she got some new workers to finish the project since it just needed its final touches and this one needed everyone’s attention. That was amazing. She always thought fast. Now speaking of Cariño. It has been two weeks if not more since he sent that creepy envelope. I sw

ZYRA. "Lunch?" "Yeah." "Okay." He smiled and opened the door. I got in and I watched him rush to enter the car and I shook my head. Just as we were about to drive off. A man who I presume lives in the building knocked on my window and I winded down. "I'm sorry for disturbing you." He put his hand in his pocket. "This is for you." He handed me an envelope. "I totally forgot to give it to

ARDYN. I have done so many things in my life, but I've never gone to such lengths for a woman. I've never even liked a woman enough to be so consumed as I am now for Princess. I've never been so out of touch with myself for the opposite gender. I've never been so disorganized. I was going mad and I just realized that sometimes memories are the worst form of torture because I only had memories of her. "Do you know that when I first saw you, I thought you were fine, but I thought that I was supposed to be talking with your dad instead." I remember Princess telling me this while making Paella. She stole the recipe from the chef at the boat we were on in Spain. "Are you being serious?" I was laughing so much. "Why would you think that?" I handed her the spoon. I was her sidekick for this purpose. It was also her first time cooking for me and she was excited. "Yes. And I also said your dad was supposed to be too old." I shook my head and laughed. "That was why I w

ZYRA. It's been a month. A complete month. Today actually made it a full month. A full month since Mr. Lane and I's separation. I was a month and three weeks pregnant. I had Jade disturbing me, which I liked a bit, but don't think I can entertain much longer because of my suppressed feelings for a certain Mr. Lane. I had Ree making sure I had everything I needed. I had Elodie and Kennedy making sure everything was in place because I was feeling a little too weak. I had my mom sending me silly videos of babies. I had Jane checking up on me every day since I broke the news to her. I had Mr. Lane's envelope sitting in a drawer in my room. Untouched. And I had myself, sitting on a bench in the streets of Spain, licking ice cream, and enjoying the view. "Yes. I promise to be home soon. I didn't run away, Ree. I just needed to touch grass." I laughed after I said that because I knew she rolled her eyes. "Okay. Love you. And take care of Lane for me." I laughed and hung up. I s

ZYRA. "Hola a todos. ¿Deberíamos? (Hi everyone. Shall we?)" I dropped my purse on the table and looked up. "Ahhhh!!" They all rushed me and I found myself hugging up to thirty plus people. "Shit. I'm so sorry." I almost died of laughter. "Too much Spanish interviews." I said to them after they left me. They were so happy to see me. It's rare to find a boss that'll take you to a different continent and let you have two free days to explore before starting work. A boss that asked Jade for accommodation for over thirty people and still paid in full. "We understand. How are you?" "We never thought we'd see you again." "Seriously." "We thought that was the end." So many questions. I loved all of them and I was just so happy. I couldn't stop laughing. "I'm sorry. I promise we're not doing that again. We're practically family." My personal family. They looked at me with puppy eyes while I just rolled my eyes and took a seat. "Let's get started alright?"

ARDYN. I looked at her; she walked into my office and took a seat. I did what Princess always did. I rolled my eyes “I really don’t understand the attitude, Ardyn.” I didn’t speak to her. It has been almost a year since Sabrina, and I began our scandalous activity. It was just two months before I met Princess, and she’s still doing all these things, even up until now. Ward or Evander is indeed her father because they share some very disturbing traits. “Why won’t you speak to me?” I just spun my chair around. What she is doing here is supposed to be the question, but I’m not ready to speak. “I heard she’s doing well in Spain.” I stopped spinning my chair. “Yeah, I knew you’d stop. Fucking fool.” I just had to speak. “I really don’t understand what you’re doing here.” She smiled at me and pulled her chair closer. “She’s definitely going to find someone new, and you’re going to be here. Cold and lonely.” I shook my head and moved my chair back. She w
