Carla Christine’s POV-I feel like last weekend was the longest weekend that happened to me because most of all, it was tiring for me.I can’t believe I’ll have another reason to live.Yuichi gave me a new reason to live, and that was to pay him back for what he did to me..When I arrived in front of the faculty room, I quickly took a deep breath to calm myself down and stop my tears from flowing down.Every time I think of that Yuichi, I growl with anger that leads to tears.The same time I opened the door, I was surprised to look at my fellow professors in the faculty after I saw most of them were fixing themselves except for two teachers who were already married.Usually, my colleagues who are female teachers get dressed and they also really put on makeup to make them look presentable, but the difference today is that they seem to be excited and thrilled. “Yes, he’s handsome,” said a female prof who is not married yet. For the length of my weekend, I feel like I missed somethin
Carla Christine POV-After introducing the Chairman of this prestigious school, I returned to our faculty room. I just said to them that I suddenly had a headache. But I really don’t want to see that Yuichi.I still can’t believe that he is the Chairman of H.I.S. and as long as he has been chairman, I have been here for the same amount of time.I don’t want to make a conclusion that these things might not be a coincidence, but I can’t think of any other reason why these things could not be a coincidence.Thinking about something makes my head hurt really. After I sat in my chair, I rubbed my forehead while closing my eyes.“Ma’am Christine?”I quickly woke up when I heard the familiar voice of Prof Martin.“I bring you a snack—bread to be exact, also bottled water and also medicine for a headache.”I just smiled at Prof Martin. “Thank you, but I don’t like taking medicine. I will just rest.”Prof Martin quickly stopped coming to me. “Are you sure?”“Yes.” I answer immediately.“Wel
Edward Fernandez POV-I looked at the caller on my cell phone. I shook my head with a smirk after I saw the caller. It seems that boss Yuichi immediately misses my good looks. The sun was just setting when he suddenly called.“Hello, boss? Why you’re calling the most handsome–”“Before crossing in the hideout.” Boss Yuichi just said, then he hung up.I grinned. I looked at the four ugly people in front said, of me: Blake, Vince, Astrid and Dylan, who did nothing but sleep.I took my gun and shot it near Dylan’s head so that he would wake up.“What the fuck?” Dylan said, annoyingly that he looked at me badly.“Boss called me and said that he missed my good looks.” I told them all.The stupid ugly ones looked at me badly and Vince threw fries right in my face.“Are you jealous of my handsome face?” I asked arrogantly.“The last one will get the car is ugly!” Blake screamed like a child, so we all stood up and came out of the hideout.I can’t allow myself to be caught in the act, especi
Carla Christine POV-I scan some important details in the documents in front of me now, such as the history of the Yuichi company, when it started, what its businesses are, investors and many others. But, one thing is for sure this company earns million dollars per hour.This is I realized that the ten billion dollars seemed like a coin to Yuichi because it was just a coin to him.I couldn't help but be impressed by him. His company, established three years ago, was recognized as a multi-billionaire company, and I couldn't help but be impressed by it as well.It’s surprising that I have read nothing about Yuichi’s family.“That’s just a little Ma’am Christine.” Dylan said, now eating the breakfast he cooked.When we went to the dining room earlier, he also gave me many sliding folders he said I should try to read first.“I’ll be your personal butler first while boss Yuichi is still fast asleep.”I put the sliding folder on the table. “Why do I have to be the acting CEO of that man’s
Carla Christine POV-“Sit down,” I said with a smile to Rachel as she entered the office.Even though Rachel used to fight and oppress me, I didn’t harbor any anger towards her; maybe a little resentment, but that’s all. Rachel is still my cousin and my only family, apart from her parents.I haven’t seen her for almost a year since she left where we used to live with her parents.“You look great.” Rachel smiled at me.I smiled.I don’t know if Rachel is teasing again or if she just has nothing else to say because I don’t think I can hide my exasperation with what hasn’t happened in the past day, especially what happened earlier.Even if I feel vexed towards Yuichi, I’m not that kind of person. My emotions were so fast earlier that I couldn’t think, and anger prevailed in my heart.“You look great too,” I said with a smile.Rachel is always beautiful. She is beautiful; her blond hair makes her more beautiful.“I’m here, Christine, to apologize to you.”“Huh? What... Are you saying?” I
Carla Christine POV-“Here’s some water, ma’am Christine.”I tried to accept the glass of water that Dylan was giving me, but I couldn’t take it after I saw that my hand was still shaking.Dylan quietly put down the glass of water on the table and sat down across from me.“May I know who the woman I ran into earlier is?”“That’s Rachel Avyana Cabrera, Rachel. My cousin.”A while ago, before Rachel even asked about it, I confessed to her it was a good thing that Dylan came and sent Rachel away. Dylan made the excuse that he needed to talk to me, which turned out to be true.“This company just lost eighty billion dollars.”I stared at Dylan.“The moment the investors saw me, they didn’t continue investing, and I didn’t even know anything about the boss’s company. I may not invade his belongings. That’s why I can’t tell them anything to continue their investment.” Dylan spoke calmly, and it seemed as if he was not worried about what he said.“Why are you telling me this? Didn’t I say ea
Carla Christine POV-Dylan took me to visit Yuichi. Arriving inside the private room, I sat on the sofa, where I could only see Yuichi.I was trembling to approach Yuichi. I am afraid of what I can do because of fear. Other than that, Astrid’s sharp look at me.“Ma’am, Christine!” Blake called.I smiled when Blake came and sat next to me.“It’s good that you visited boss Yuichi again,” Blake said cheerfully, with a smile.I smiled sparingly at Blake, then glanced at Yuichi.I went with Dylan to visit Yuichi, not because I wanted to see Yuichi. I just want to confirm something, and now that I have confirmed what I want to confirm, maybe I can do what I’m planning to do.“Are you all right?” Blake asked as I looked at him again.“What do you mean?”Blake’s innocent eyes looked at me for a few seconds, and then he also smiled. “I mean, how about being the CEO of boss Yuichi’s company? I think it’s hard to be the CEO of the YCC company.” Then he pouted his lips.“It’s okay,” I said. I di
Carla Christine POV-“Who the fuck are you?!” Yuichi shouted.The man on the other line ended the call.Yuichi attempted to call that unknown number multiple times, but the number got lost.Yuichi’s eyes were burning with anger as he looked at me. “Who is that fucking man, Christine?”I want to let him know that even though I don’t know him but I feel like I swallowed my tongue and that I can’t talk.“Tell me!”Yuichi held my phone, and when we heard a little crack in my cell phone, I noticed Yuichi loosening his grip on the phone.He threw my phone at Dylan, who was now awake.“Have Blake find the owner of the damn phone number, as well as where the fucking owner of that phone number is. Bring that fucking man to me!”“Yes, boss.”I followed Dylan and begged him to look at me and take me to where he was going. But until he was out of my sight and the door was closed, I didn’t glimpse Dylan.“And, you.”Before I could look back at Yuichi, he grabbed my arm and walked me to the second
