Eros’ POV
“You don’t have to send them home.” Jeffrey whispered his displeasure as I open the door into my office.It reminds me of the time Dalia came to apologize. Those were moments I despise. It shouldn’t happen again... I decided, taking my seat and pointing at the leather chair across the table. Jeffrey took that one. I removed my suit, hung it on the coat rack and adjusted my tie. It is beginning to get hot.Very soon, I would turn on the news to find out that I have sent nearly half of my staff home. “You have your company Jeffrey. I am sure there were moments when you wished you sent your staff home. You didn’t or did you?” I asked dryly.Jeffrey tilts his head before the weight of my words sank in. Then he chuckled. “You are right.. I do send them home sometimes. But the way you handle your staff is simply amazing... Isaiah is here to help you out with the work load,” He points at the young man engrossed in his laptop behind us. “I might have to look for a

Dalia’s POV.The phone gradually slipped from my hands. I have done it again.I confessed to him! What were you thinking Dalia Thompson?...I look at the images in the screen, sighing when I see the business news talked about Eros and the entertainment news still talked about Eros. His reputation truly precedes him as I could see a video of his staff going home. So he fired all of them...?Well, someone had to take the pain in uploading the video of the unfairness to Instagram. The caption and number of views were crazy.I secretly wonder how many views it would get when it is eventually announced. My marriage with Eros.As a secret exposed...His company ratings has dropped by seven percent and although the damage seems little, it would take Eros at least a month to get the company back on its feet. All departments would be on hold for a week...Who will help him now? Instead of proffering solutions, I went ahead to confess my love to him. Who cares

Dalia’s POVI gesture to the chair across the dining table. “Thank you for coming.” I am indeed grateful Dimitri decided to come. After all he is tasked to protect me from any physical harm. Who knew what Eros was thinking while he hiring this gentle giant.Dimitri nods, taking his seat and urging me to get to the point. I have managed to ask Stephanie to take my dad for a walk. Getting him a wheelchair and forcing him to sit on it wasn’t easy but I eventually got it for him and pleaded for him to breath in fresh air. He doesn’t need to hear my conversation and Stephanie don’t have to eavesdrop. I can take care of myself. Although I do feel a little bit uncomfortable as my belly and legs increases in size everyday, I know I can do this little by writing.“I asked you to come here because I need your help. I need to know what is going on in West wing.” My notebook and pen was already placed in front of me.Dimitri nods. He seems to know why I am asking already. “You n

Dalia’s POV.“Is that him?” I point to the man on tee-shirt and grey flannel trousers. He’s like how Emily described- tall, broad shoulders and bulging stomach. Since yesterday ‘s incident, I decided to pay more attention to my friend. She was there for me when I felt lost and scared.We are both wearing matching outfits of spies, squatting behind Emily’s car. It was sleek, blue and didn’t blend well with other cars at the parking lot. Bluetanic.. For some reason, Emily choose not to stay in the car. And I tagged along.I stare at Emily from the corner of my eyes discreetly, amused by our spy outfit- she picked them of course! Few hours earlier, she emphasized on how important outfit were during this expenditure. After much trashing and ruffling, she settled for a black one piece latex jumpsuit, Red bandana wrapped around her head, the biggest sunglasses I’ve ever seen to hide her puffy eyes and blazing red lips gloss smeared over her thin lips. She should have weapons for ear rings,

Emily’s POVMy plan was to rip Vanessa’s fake hair out but I can’t now...“Emily, Wait!” I hear Dalia call faintly behind me. She must be so stressed out, following me out here. Well, for the things I’ve done for her, she can do this much for me.Facing Eros West now and it took everything in me not to lash out at him. He looks.. wasted? I guess the problem Dalia told me about must be affecting him a lot. Just what is he putting on?! This isn’t the Eros West who asked me for a favour. Dalia should be around here somewhere...“What are you doing here?” He asks, eying my outfit up and down.I roll my eyes. “I should be asking you the same thing. Why do you always leave your nose in my business?”Eros snorts, which was a side I’ve never seen. Has he shown this side to Dalia? It only infuriates me. “That’s rich coming from you.”I fold my hands in disbelief. “Let me guess, you are here to complete what you started. You are ruining my career by intervening. Do

Eros’ POVI feel sorry for Emily. It wasn’t supposed to go this way...“You need to stop drinking, Eros.” Vanessa Dave warns collecting my glass of wine.I roll my eyes. I hate for her to see this side of me but since she has been so adamant, signing the visitor’s form just to see me,- all which had been rejected, she better get used to it. “Tell me, why Emily Newton?”Vanessa shakes her head in mockery. “Emily Newton? She nearly ruined my reputation, so I nearly ruined her career in acting. She has no business here.”A song played softly in the background, relaxing my mind a bit. It was her idea to visit the university cafe. I didn’t know universities had cafe like this.. their snacks tasted like heaven and their wine is to die for. Though it was a special order on my part. It was immediately granted by the pastry chef. She was excited to deliver my order and even asked for an autograph. Others didn’t get a chance to because they were served coffee and it was on the house.“OMG! It’s

Eros’ POVI had to threaten her. The both of them behaved like sisters- Inseparable and their statements ends with their names in it.From my investigation, both of them grew up together and at first glance I thought they were just pretending to be friends or Dalia was friends with Emily for benefit but now I see that they are just bound by sisterly love.I shake my head as it seems like my brain wants me to remember something. The girl behind the truck!Who was she and why did she look so familiar? It just happened that Emily and the girl wore same outfits?It happens but what are the odds?Betty' PoVI feel like I am losing my mind. Where is Eros? He promised to be back home by six and it’s nine already. This is the third day at his house and I can’t help but think he is hiding something from me.I hear the front gates open and the familiar sound of Eros’ car reached my ears. I leap from the bed in excitement. It was rare seeing him at home and I don’t want to make the mistake of v

Dalia’s POV“Oh..” Was their reply and I am okay with it.Now, to the main purpose of why I brought them here.Betty’s PoV“Hi,” I flip my hair to the back gently. I managed to get Echo’s business number. She is the easiest to talk to among the West siblings. Starting with her first is the best choice. My only choice.“Betty?” She shrieks on the other side just in time for me to drop my humility act.“Hey, girl! Didn’t think you’d recognise my voice!” I smile, excited at her ability to remember after many years.“You tell me...” She chuckles, after which she cleared her throat. “I know you have a reason for calling so let’s not deceive each other. What’s it?”Now that’s the Echo I remember. She was our playmate when we were younger. One day she chose not to associate herself with I and Eros. Although we were understanding but it didn’t make the pain any less.I was hurt and got over it after many years.“Fine! You got me.” I bit my inner cheek

Dalia’s POV“You did it, Dalia!” Emily screamed from the other side of the phone.Yay! I did it... I muttered dryly.“Are you there?” Emily asked after a while. I must have been quiet for too long.“Yeah, yeah. I am happy.”“I know what you are thinking and don’t you dare let it. You’ve done your duty... Let it go.”Is it really my duty? “But,”She didn’t let me finish. “At first I was sceptical about this. Then I noticed you were enjoying yourself. It made you happy and trust me I haven’t seen you as happy as this in a long time. You exceeded our expectations and now the show can go on, don’t think you did it for Eros. You did it for yourself... Even so, I can plan your wedding without any drama!” she adds with a squeal.Well, that was a long speech..“Alright. Enough of the motivation. I guess, I won’t take the credit,” I chuckled bitterly. No one will remember me and I am sure Eros will never know it was me behind the ratings.“But I know.
