"That concludes the meeting, gentlemen," Averill smiled at them and stared at the four men in front of him, waiting for someone to complain since that is where they are good at... but contrary to what she expected, the four of them are casually discussing the said meeting like what happened earlier did not happen at all.Noah leaned to Averill and whispered something to her ears. The latter felt tickled when his warm breath touches her skin but remained looking at front. "You are something, Averill Hursen," Noah said, smirking like he won something though Averill did all the field work for him."I can't believe you're hiding such treasure, Noah," Hugo, CEO of one of the huge real estate business in the country, said, shaking hands with Noah. The latter smirked and glanced at Averill, he's sober up after an hour of listening to Averill's explanation of the expansion of the business that the five of them are going to do."She's full of surprises, ain't she," Noah chuckled. Averill could
"What the hell is wrong with that sister of yours?" John asked. It has been two days and he could still remember the night that Averill took over their meeting because he got too hot with Noah.Yanna was the reason why he was holding his collar that night. Noah had mention something between b*tch and two-timing though it was not directed to the woman who's currently John's lover.Yes, they officially labeled their relationship though not in public since they both are holding honor under their names and they would not want to make any mistake that will tarnish it.Yanna kissed him on the lips and tucked herself more beside him under the blanket. John smirked and chuckled, the woman is obsess with him. He kissed the top of her lips, then the corners of her chin, tracing her jawline. Playfully biting her ears, "Stop it, my CEO," she giggled and pushed John to the bed. The latter smirked and pulled her to his chest, kissing her lips."This is why I don't mind sharing you with that bastar
"You look like you're in great mood. Ms. Averill did great with handling the meeting, huh?" Karl teases Noah. He placed the coffee on Noah's desk, the latter smirked at him but with different thought in mind.That deal was one thing but the reason for his elated morning is another.Noah can't believe simply seeping with the woman while embracing her through the night could give this kind of fluttery in his entirety. Noah took the coffee and took a sip, "This is sweet," he smiled again.His secretary could only frown at him. Karl recalls how much sugar he added but he remembers how he cautiously made the coffee because Noah is stingy with sweet things. 'I'm sure that's bitter, is there something wrong with his taste buds?' Karl sighed and went to his desk, not commenting further about the matter."Right, Mr. Noah, you have a lunch meeting with your parents next week," Karl informed him, they contacted Karl earlier this morning and told him to relay the message to Noah."Conditions? Is
"Are you sure you're gonna let her go?" Gio looked at Noah intently. Noah glanced at him and made a sad smile."We have been together for almost eight years," he looked at their old photos and slowly rips all of them. Noah threw the torn photos in the flames and looked at them with a blank face.Gio cannot really read what's running inside his head right now but Gio knew that Noah is not the type to simply let go of things, especially when it comes to family."I will handle it," Noah smiled at Gio. "Thank you for everything but I may ask you to keep this to ourselves,"Gio nodded, though Noah considers him as a friend, he still looks up to the young billionaire who changed his life. He was an addict but has enormous talent in computers.Noah saw his potential and forced him to work for him. He's been working for the man for over a decade now. When Gio left, Noah received a call from his parents. He smiled at the mirror before answering it, "Mom,""Where are you?""I will just pick up
"Look who's here, my ex fiance! Hehe," Yanna is obviously drunk but she grabbed another glass of whiskey and took it straight. The harsh liquid went in her throat and she's feeling alive again. Her body is hot, head is a mess, heart is shattered to pieces."Noah, hic, Noah, my dear Noah, hic," Noah looked down at her."You're drunk,""Nyoww, Aym nyot druuunkk, hic," Yanna chuckled. It's a private suite so Noah ignored her and sat across the table.Yanna is something when she's drunk. She never remember what happened after she sober up. Noah is risking that fact to confirm his data again. Because though it was a completed investigation done in his part, he still wishes, deep inside him... that she did not do it.Yanna, though she lied to Noah about the incident. Though she cheated. Though she just used him for her own benefit... Noah felt like he either wasted or gained from the eight years they spent together.Though their relationship lasted for that long; he wa a busy man who only s
TW: Violence"Yanna... why did you do it?" Noah pinned her to the bed. Blood escaped Yanna's face, her throat dried up and she could not reply.'How? How? How? How? HOW?!' she repeatedly asked in her mind but nothing left her mouth but groans of pain. Noah is gripping her wrists tightly to the sides of the bed."Why?!" Noah shouts with no emotion in his voice. It scared Yanna more than him shouting with rage. Noah's eyes are dead black. His teeth are bared. HAnds are gripping her tightly and his body, dangerously placed on top of her."I-I ddo-don't know wh-what you're talking about, Noah," Yanna insisted as her tongue twisted in fear. Noah scoffed, he let go of her hands and sat on the soft mattress. Yanna felt like she could finally breathe but the moment she sits up, Noah's heavy hand landed on her face.With tears in her eyes, she looked at Noah, "N-Noah?" Noah looked at her with blank eyes and slapped her on the other side of her cheek. He did not feel contented and kicked her i
Kyle bowed his head down after a slap landed on his face. “What did you just say? Yanna… What do you mean you can’t find her?” Isabella dropped to the couch as tea fell from her other hand, falling perfectly on her lap. Kyle panicked when the scorching hot tea sipped slowly on her cloth but the woman could not even react to it as her state of mind was elsewhere. “Madam! Are you hurt?” Kyle asked again and again but the woman did not respond to his cries. She could not even hear him. Her mind is full of horror as she thinks about what could have happened to her precious daughter. “Where the hell is Yanna? Where is my daughter?” she repeatedly asks as her eyes wander outside the bright garden. “What happened here?” William, who was about to talk with his wife, rushed to Isabella when he saw the commotion. He totally forgot his business and snatched the hanky that Kyle was wiping his wife’s lap with. It bothered him but Isabella is his top priority. “Isabella? What happened?” “Hey?”
“Averill,” Noah called her name as she walked to and fro while they’re outside the emergency room. Paulo is being treated inside.Noah was against them going here personally but he cannot leave Averill alone with the man. He does not know what Paulo would do nor who he really is. He hasn’t done his investigation yet. Whatif Paulo is an accomplice? Noah cannot let Averill be with a murderer.“Can we sue that man?”“John? Nah, it would just be a headache,” Noah said casually. He doesn’t really wanna deal with the Hulsons right now. He got a lot on his plate.“But this is overboard, Noah,”“He deserves it,”“What?”“You knew, didn’t you?”Averill remained silent. She already deciphered what Noah is talking about and she got no excuse. She really knew about the secret relationship of Yanna with Paulo though she’s not really sure whether it was a secret.“Where’s Paulo?!” A woman in hysterics rushed inside the hospital, she looked like she just got out of a meeting. It was Paulina, Paulo’s
