92 My Worries
Murmurs can be heard in the hall. Geoff stood still on the stage, probably thinking whether he should stay where he is now or follow Erica to comfort her. In this situation, I should feel happy and proud because I am gradually having my revenge, but why do I have the feeling that the people present in the hall are looking at me like a villain?
Holding Colin's hand in one hand while holding the trophy on the other hand, I couldn't help but to look down. I have to avoid stares of those people seated on their seats. Colin still looks so relaxed. I'm not sure whether he could sense the judging eyes glaring at us.
A little later, Geoff decided to get off the stage as well. I guess he couldn't stand to be in the same place with me. After he left, all the awardees with their partners took pictures. I had to force a smile not to look awkward in photos.
As we get back to our seats, some reporters approached Colin.
"Mr. Andrews, can we have a short interview? We ju

Time past by quickly and the news about me is not that frequent anymore. although there are still some articles about Geoff, but it seems that not so many people are interested in it. Thanks to social media, new interesting topics come out from time to time that people forget about previous issues easily.

He always says that the truth would come out eventually, so we don’t need to bother explaining our side of the story, and he is right.Geoff and Ericka are now more open with their relationship.

The Love I Have Hoped For 97 The Encounter
Who would have thought that a perfect night such as this will be ruined with the presence of the two most hideous people I know. It’s my first time to be in this restaurant and the place already made me feel comfortable and excited just seeing the interior from the lobby, but having these two people in here ruins all my expectation about this date. “Should we just look for another restaurant? I just want to have some pizza and pasta tonight.” I suggested to my husband. He can sense how worried I am and how uncomfortable this will be for the both of us. Just a simple smile from him makes me feel that I am understood and I don’t need to worry about anything. “It’s difficult to make a reservation in this place and food here is one of my favorites. I want you to try everything that I like. You trust me, right?” He replied with a reassuring smile on his face. This is not the response I was expecting from him. I expected he would tell me that he understands what I feel and we will leave t

98“You did a good job in there. You should know how to defend yourself all the time, especially when you know you are right. I’m proud of you. I think you’re ready now.” Colin said.“Ready for what?” I asked.“Ready for what?” I asked again. I cannot guess what Colin is thinking right now. I also never thought he has other plans for the two of us, especially for me. Having him in my life has always been enough for me now.

I have the money to support you, Athena and mom but I don’t want you to feel you are locked up at home. I want to train you.

The Love I Have Hoped For 99 Working Again?
Monday came. and true to Colin's words, I am scheduled to visit the company where I will work as an intern. I asked Colin to give me an entry job instead, a secretary perhaps or an assistant to one of the editors, but he refused. This almost led us to an argument."I am not called as a CEO for nothing. That is my company and I can assign anyone there. I could make you a manager in an instant if I want to." "I know you're the owner of the company, but you have to hire people based on their experiences. I could attend a short course on business and publications first, then I could go there as an intern""Practical experience is much more important in learning. You have this valuable chance of gaining that experience by working directly to the company. I already told the supervisor about your situation. Please don't be stubborn and just do what I say.""But..""Stop with those buts. It will lead to nowhere. I know you are worried about what people would say about you, or you might give
