Alina’s Redemption Realisation
ALINA'S POV This was my chance.By some miracle, Gomes had agreed to showing me around his company. I didn't know why, but one thing was sure: I was going to utilize it to the fullest advantage.Most likely, he must have thought that since I was the one trying to get a partnership with his labs, then I would make sure I was on my best behavior and not do anything funny.But as it so happened, we didn't want a partnership in the first place, and this was just more of a cover-up so that I could utilize any chance I got to, in fact, do something funny and gather all the information I needed as soon as possible.So when he actually agreed to it, I felt more relieved.But of course, I wasn't foolish enough to believe that my mission here was almost complete. If there was really some dirt on him, then he would not show me that or give me any reason to think that.Instead, I would be shown only the basic, uninteresting parts. So in truth, he had nothing to lose either way.That didn't mean
Alina’s Redemption Backup
TRENT'S POVClarence was my backup, or no wait, more appropriately, he has sandwiched himself to me as we went on the journey that I sold did not look forward to.I listen to Evelyn's voice note over and over, wishing I could crush it between my hands; how infuriating. The soul essence or rather what I had been able to gather from the annoying voice of hers as she spun into a long monologue of how she had come all the way to America and was not going to go back until she got what she asked for.Like I was the one who told her to come all the way from her precious London here. If she didn't like it, she could only wear, leave for all I cared. If she wanted all of Father's property for herself and that woman she called mother, then she should have made him sign it over to her when he was still alive.I didn't need it, but I wasn't going to give out what was mine. It wasn't f****** charity, and I wasn't about to treat it as such. So back to how Clarence ended up following me to a hotel

The receptionist was a man...I have to give him that. “how may I help you?” The man asked looking up at the both of us with a without a smile. Good, he didn't even fake it. I was starting to like the guy. “We have reservations,” I said, flashing gik my Identity card as well as a picture of the reservations.

Alina’s Redemption The Glare
CHAPTER 49—TRENT'S POV —I knocked on the door once, then twice before remembering that I had a fucking card that opened everywhere. Regretting knocking in the first place, I pulled out the little card from my pocket and slid it between the doors, an f watched with a hint of satisfaction in my eyes as it slided open. Know what else was open, Clarence's, (my so called manager that insisted he be bought along ) mouth as he watched me and my complete disregard for people's privacy.“You might want to consider closing it,” I nudged him slightly before walking in. No misconceptions here, I had immense respect for people, and talk lees of their own privacy, especially when it came to humans. I loved animals too but it just wasn't that necessary when it came to them. Especially the Evelyn species. And so since there was a means, I ffniy just because I could, and then there was also the other reason of flaunting my superiority over her.I was almost pointing it out myself since it alway

Alina’s Redemption Something Cute
ALINA'S POV I might have been a bit biased in my evaluation of the CEO of Star Frost labs. But then again, considering that it was none other than Gomes Allen, the devil in the making, then I would not even bat an eyelid if I later find out that he was way worse himself .I read through the report I filed out in my tab a couple more times, then after concluding that no other personal secretary could have done a batter job, I saver it and sent it in an email to my Boss, Clarence. After clicking on the send botton, I leaned back on the seat and heaved a sigh of relief.Well, at least now that part of the day was over. I glanced back. The labs were already far away as I had ridden far away from it. However I had a nasty feeling that settled down in my gut. There was a nagging feeling at the back of my mind that said that I just succeeded in reopening that inexperienced university student chapter of my life all over again.“I sure do a stellar job when it came to overthinking,” I mutte
Alina’s Redemption Window
GOMEZ ALLEN——1 hour ago —I watched the red haired Stacy Miller shuffle out of my office with Priscilla behind her. I made sure to keep tabs on the both of them, only satisfied when finally I could see the red haired wonder again, in the drive way of the company. From my position by the window, I got a clear view of everything that was happening over there. Priscilla stood by the side and Stacy got into her car, and pulled out of tge drive way. Only then did I finally heave a sigh of relief. The red haired little creature was as fake as any human could be without being thrown out of the Earth completely for not fitting in. There was another issue too. She seemed to be almost frightened by me. Well, maybe repulsed even. And I was almost certain that we had metbin the past. I could not for the life of me figure any other credible reason for a random lady to hate me that much, so much that she inched from me a couple of times. What would I have done in the past to make someone ha
Alina’s Redemption The Truth
GOMES POV—15 minutes ago—“Mr. Allen,”Priscilla entered the office for the second time, a tablet clutched under one hand and the other folded behind her back.I looked up lazily.This would only mean that she had gathered the information I had told her to find. We had an unspoken rule to not come back unless she had whatever I was looking for.Which in this case, was all the intel I could get on one, Stacy Miller.Since undoubtedly that was the case, I waved her towards the seat that was opposite from me.“It better make sense,” I muttered under my breath.The truth of the matter was, here in the labs might be constantly interesting, as the young scientists that were under me had their minds filled with possibilities of what can and could have been. And I was here to give them the man power to turn those possibilities into the next realities.As interesting and fulfilling as that was, my personal life remained one word short of boring.But this one, Stacy Miller, she was the key to
