26 years old successful millionaire and CEO of Eva's and Co., Evelyn White has committed suicide by drowning in a pool of shame in her apartment on Monday night.

Now that would be a good headline. At least the reporters will be benefited by my death. Maybe they'll be more genuine than others while praying for my departed soul, I thought solemnly as I watched the blurry images disappearing behind me.

Okay, if you people are wondering how that thought occurred to me, let me tell you, I was currently in Adrian's car, beside him, in the passenger seat, as he drives, headed to...

His place.

Yup, that's right. And that was the reason I had been wondering if it was possible for someone to die of shame.

Earlier, when I'd finished my works and was headed to the parking lot to get home, the devil was already standing right in front of my building with his stupid car and the already open passenger door.

By now, I don't think I need to mention his irritating smirk. 'Cause it's a given. You just n

  • A Promise To Forever   chapter 48

    But Mr. Stone silenced all the objections and announced the companies as partners, daring anyone to go against his decision. With that, the meeting ended and the big, heavy bag of burden residing in my heart flew away like a bird finally freed from its cage. Refreshments were served and all the members were thanked and politely sent on their way happily. The world was happy.I had just sat down on my seat in relief when a knock suddenly sounded on my office door. Thinking it might be Leah or any of my employees, I told them to enter as I put away the files. If I left the job to my secretary, three Christmases would be over before she finally remembers that I had asked her to do something.The person behind the door walked inside and cleared their throat seeing as I was occupied. I looked up and nearly stumbled on my seat (I didn't think it was possible before today) as I saw Mr. Stone standing in front of my desk."Oh! Mr. Stone, forgive me, I didn't know it was you. Please make yours

    Over the years, there were quite a lot of times when I wanted to leave my body organs and disappear from the solar system. However, none of those times came even close to what I felt the moment Mr. Stone Senior walked in. This time around, only leaving the solar system didn't seem enough. I wanted to fly out of the milky way galaxy and if possible, out of the universe altogether, never to be heard of ever again.I heard Nate's snicker from beside me but couldn't find the energy to glare at him. I was frozen as I looked at the person who was the legend of the business industry. He had turned a medium scale family business to The Stones Inc., which was now the biggest business franchise of the world. Adrian had further expanded this business to a whole new level, making it an internationally renowned company.Mr. Stone was handsome even in his fifties. He was tall, just like his son, and had the same black hair, and same facial features. The only feature that was slightly different in t

    "Alright, then. As you say. Give my love to my Bubbles. Goodnight. I'll try and come in both of your dreams, although I'm quite busy. Ladies all over the world like to dream of me, you know? But I'll ditch them for you tonight. So sweet dreams, ladies."And then he hung up.I sighed and slowly turned to Eva, who was looking at me with an expression that made me feel slightly uneasy. "Did Adrian say something to you?" She asked quietly after sometime. I scrunched my face in confusion. "He says a lot of things everyday. What exactly are you talking about?" She rolled her eyes and heaved a sigh. "I mean about that day when I talked to him. Did he say anything about it afterwards?"I suddenly remembered then. That he'd promised me he would tell everything once Eva was fine and our meeting was over. "No, he didn't. But he said he would soon. Do you know what it's about?"Eva shook her head. "It's not my place to tell you. You both need to have that conversation and for that, you need to

    I walked out of the hospital cafeteria with a bag containing burger and fries and two takeaway cups of hot chocolate. My dear sister had shooed me out of her room, not so politely asking me to not enter unless I bring good food to her. I had to sneakily bribe the nice looking waiter to fulfill my sisterly duties.My phone vibrated as I was walking towards Eva's room and I adjusted the bags and the cups on one hand while I searched for my phone. With great difficulty, I took it out of my back pocket and smiled at the contact name. I was starting to feel that I should change his contact name by now but it always managed to make me laugh everytime he called so I let it be.I ignored my heart which was once again resuming what seemed to be its job everytime the devil was involved in any form and answered the call. Before I could even utter a word, however, Adrian beat me to it."How's Eva? How did it go?"He sounded breathless, as if he was running and soon enough, I heard the ding of the

    The same nurse from earlier came to us and both of us stood up straight. She gave a small smile at us, which relieved some of my anxiety but I didn't dare return her smile just yet. Allie was tapping her right foot nervously on the floor as both of us waited for the nurse to speak."Ms. Evangeline has woken up. Dr. Marshall and Dr. Jenkins are inside. You can come now."Both of us rushed towards Eva's room and we entered to find ourselves in almost the same state as before. Dr. Marshall was running the tip of a needle like thing along her feet and speaking to her while Keith was writing something on her file. I was scared to move further inside. I wouldn't be able to take it if this surgery failed. I wasn't strong enough to watch my sister disappointed in me. I couldn't stand being a failure to my sister once again.Eva's face was scrunched in confusion as she watched Dr. Marshall repeat the same movements along her feet. I felt my heart hammering against my chest as I looked at her

    "I can't feel my legs."I stumbled backwards hearing this and felt a pair of arms holding me, preventing me from falling down. I didn't have to look back to know who it was. Once again, I was grateful that he was here.It was silent for while, all of us looking at each other. Dr. Marshall scrunched his face in confusion, and repeated the same movements on her legs, giving her simple instructions like lifting her heels, moving her toes. But Eva shook her head at each one, her eyes filled with tears of frustration as she failed each time.I couldn't speak. I was still standing there, frozen, as I watched my sister trying and failing to do a task as simple as shaking her feet. I suddenly felt cold when the arms unwound themselves from me. Adrian moved away after giving my shoulder a little squeeze. A part of me wanted to call out to him but I stopped myself. Another pair of smaller arms enveloped me into a hug and I looked over to see Allie with tears in her own eyes. I could hear Adria
