Dalia's POVTracy greeted me with another letter at my desk and when I asked her about it, she shrugged. Sighing, I drew one of the letters from the stack. I am really going to do this huh…The first paper was pink in color. Classic romance. My mind drifted to the conversation the both of us had at the pool. Something told me he was the one who sent these letters because how else can you explain it? He opened up to me last night!I hope we remain good together. It would be a shame for the both of us to separate after the talk last night. I opened the paper to read.Dear Dalia,Roses are red,Sky is blue,Of them all,I love you.My cheeks became suddenly hot and I folded the letter. What was that? It was the most cliche thing I have ever heard. Couldn't he find better pick up lines? I chuckled at the thought of him researching just to make me happy. His serious face and all…I couldn't hold the laughter. Imagining Eros writing down these words was hilarious. I guess I must have laughe
I opened the cap of the board marker. "Your team spirit." I wrote on the board.They all 'o' ed and I was once again the spotlight. "Every fashion company doesn't see technology as the fastest way to make money. But the economy is built on it. Would you like to come to a company to buy your clothes or order from the comfort of your homes?"They all replied the obvious."Good. Everyone would like to order from their homes right? But is that all? What about sizes? Heights? The correct shoe size? Body shape? Are you going to order that too?"Another raised his hands. "It's simple, I can easily input those things when I am placing the order. It is left for the company to give me what I want."I shook my head at his reply. He wasn't right and he wasn't wrong. I turned to the board again, drawing the outcome plan arrows I had seen online. "Good. But what if you aren't given what you wanted? What about those who aren't well versed in English? How are they going to type in their preference? W
Dalia's PoV"I miss you even now." Jeffery muttered and I could see how much he did. His eyes held so much regret. I nearly laughed at the irony. He looked around. "But look how well you have done. You are handling a team now and I can tell it wasn't easy getting here."I chuckled at his assumption. Of course it wasn't easy even as the wife of a billionaire. Eros would never give it to me if he knew I was going to mess it up. I just took up the position to make myself relevant. The fact I am pregnant doesn't mean I am immobile. The earlier Eros and Betty get it into their head, the better."I am married to Eros West," I choose to say instead. "How hard did you think it was?"Jeffrey clapped his hands in appreciation. "Bullshit. You don't like privileges. Remember the time I hired you? You asked me a million times why."I grinned as I recalled those times too. It wasn't far from then but I relished those days when I worked with Jeffrey and got to travel to different places. "Heavily pr
Eros' POV"Isaiah! My office now!" I yelled, jolting Isaiah from his work daze. He jumped into my office immediately. It suddenly felt too hot. I quickly removed the jacket causing it.It still felt hot. It only meant the jacket wasn't the problem. The problem was me and how Dalia talked me down in the office. I think she knows my weakness.She knows my reputation is my weakness. I will do anything to save it and now she is trying to ruin it by involving Nick. Is he the only one with sufficient knowledge on the project? It would be nice to have him on our side but he's already in my bad books and I can't wait for him to experience the consequences of his recent actions.Nick Newton? She is toying with me! I know how desperate I want this project to work but not at the expense of allowing a bitch into my company. He once tried to set my company on fire, he is the reason why I am going through this right now.How did she get to know he was the ghost tech man?I glared at Isaiah who just
Third person's point of view."Why can't you believe me?" Nick asked with his eyes a little teary. It didn't faze Emily one bit. She was even eying him skeptically.Hera had suddenly found the kitchen more interesting but her ears never stopped to listen to what Emily and her cousin discussed. How privileged she is to be listening in on their awkward conversation."I can't believe you because I know you, Nick. You don't do things by mistake." snapped Emily. She wasn't in the mood for his bullshit. He could sit on her couch all day and tell her lies and she would sit all day on her couch, opposite him and listen, not believing one shit about it. "We grew up together. At some point, we grew apart. I will ask you once again. Why?"Nick sighed. He should have known his clever cousin wouldn't believe him. She has always been like that. Always suspecting what wasn't there. It was a pity her parents weren't there to see how far their daughter has grown. Instead of a modeling career why not a
Emily frowned at the realization. It meant Dalia was still safe. He wouldn't do anything to her for now. Besides, Eros will be there to protect her. The ball is in Dalia's hands now. She has to choose. Eros or Nick. Of course, she knew about the fake love Dalia and Eros convinced the onlookers about.Hera suddenly jerked her head up. "Is he gone?" She asked softly.Emily patted her head. "You slept throughout."Hera closed her eyes in frustration. "I didn't want to. I just couldn't fight it."Emily smirked as they both looked at the cup of tea that was now cold. "You almost hit your head. Why not go and rest. You have a meeting tomorrow.""Will I see you after?" Hera asked hopefully. Their relationship was still a secret. She was a bit glad, Emily didn't mention anything about her cousin disapproving of their relationship.Emily sat on the chair opposite as she contemplated whether to see the clingy woman. She knew she was the setback in their relationship. She was the one who drew ba
Third's person's POV."Boss, I was thinking of including a fair game." Sara presented to Eros at the second board meeting with the team leaders."Let technology rule!" A man chipped in.Dalia beamed at the team. "You know what? After all this, we should hang out. Dinner?"Anthony, who was the leader of the tech team, snapped his fingers in agreement. "Barbeque?" He asked his colleagues, and they all raised their hands in agreement.Eros cleared his throat, and everyone dropped their hands. Dalia sighed at the suddenly cold room. She knew that they all felt like themselves around her. He always managed to ruin their playful mood with his cold attitude. "We haven't implemented our plans, yet. So no eating until then. Everyone is staying overtime. No excuses."With a scowl, Sara closed her file with a thud. "We haven't had time for dinner as colleagues. We are halfway there…"Eros hissed in irritation. "You cannot go without me!"Dalia cleared her throat the same way he did and they all
"Bethany Woods!" Eros called. You couldn't hear his voice, but Dalia could read his lips. It was what he always called her. Bethany woods. It wasn't in a spiteful way. His eyes looked happy. Really happy."I brought dinner. I guessed you would be working overtime tonight, so I decided to help you." She was putting on sweaters and sweatpants. What a crazy combination! Even though it was good, Dalia still saw it as crazy. She wasn't a happy woman as she watched them. Doesn't she know Eros' dark sides? Does he really show this rainbow and sunshine to her and leave the parts that haunted his life behind? Or do they both pretend there is nothing but happiness in their lives?Dalia shook her head as she pressed the button for the first floor. The last thing she saw as the elevator closed was the two of them laughing hard at whatever she prepared. Dalia banged her head softly against the hard walls of the elevator. Eros hasn't tasted her food before. She has never had to work since she offic
