Eight- VIP Room
We are now at our hospital. She’s still unconscious. Someone knocked on the door. It's Annie. I let her in. Annie is my personal assistant, and she’s working with me for 5 years now. She’s 35 years old. She brought me two pairs of clothes.
“Changed in this while I changed her clothes. I also brought you your coat.” She told me. She’s like an older sister to me.
“Thanks, Annie.”
I went to the washroom and changed clothes. I'm now wearing a white t shirt and grey joggers. And good thing Annie brought my winter cotton coat. I feel warm now.
I went and asked for our family doctor who’s on duty and the one who checked on the lady. He’s my Uncle.
“Uncle Louis, how's the patient?” I asked.
“Hey, Alex. The lady is all safe. Just a minor concussion but nothing's serious. She may experience d

Her thoughts.I opened my eyes. My head is aching. I looked around. This is not my room. Wait, I know I was walking down the pedestrian, then there was a car — ugh, my head hurts.I breathe deeply. And told myself not to panic. You're okay, Heather. Relax.I'm in a gigantic room. Is this a hospital? My clothes are now different. It's kind of big, but warm. No one's here. Checked the time on the digital wall clock. It’s past six o’clock in the evening. I got up, whoa! I felt dizzy. Likewise, I noticed that my right elbow and right knee has plasters. Then, I tried looking for my things, the only that's familiar on that room was my purse on the table. It's wet. I opened the door, and I'm actually at the hospital. I rushed outside until I was out of the hospital. I feel super dizzy. I think I have a fever.I rode a taxicab and told him the flat address of Sophi

I have to go back to the hospital to retrieve my things, especially my laptop. But not today. I still have a commitment to do.Sophia and I were having our breakfast. And she told me again about the plan. This is the first time I had my breakfast without worrying about work. But thinking about sabotaging one's engagement party is insane.“How are you feeling?” She asked.“I'm great.” I lied. I feel feverish.“Okay. Oh! H! Aside from ruining my mother’s plan. I’m super excited to doll you up! I haven't seen you wear a dress. But today I’ll make you look like a princess!” Did I tell you that Sophia has a royal blood? That's how rich she is.“No. I'm good. Just don't mind me.”“You don't trust me?” She’s quite sad.“No! That's what not I meant. I just d
CEO MEETS HER Eleven— Night Sky
I found him! But I felt unwell and feverish. I unconsciously touched my forehead. Likewise, I staggered a little but found my balance.Alexander moves towards me and tried to help me stand up straight and asked me in his cold but beautiful low voice, “Hey, are you all right? Are you hurt somewhere?” He sounded concerned.“Yes, I'm fine. A little dizzy, but I'm good.” I without a second thought hold his arms for support.“I retract that, I don't feel well. Can you help me sit somewhere? Please.” My face almost touches his chest, but I tried not to. He smells great. Then he scooped me. Like my weight was nothing to him. I stared at him, shocked and puzzled. He sounded worried and annoyed.
CEO MEETS HER Twelve— His Thoughts
“Hey, Sarah! Quick! The devil’s here.”I overheard one of the staff when I walked to my office. And just how superficial human beings are they greeted me with a smile “Good morning, sir.” I continued to walk like I never heard them.Someone knocked on my door. I responded, “Come in.” It’s Annie.“Alexander, your today’s schedule is full.” Told Annie. She’s the only one I permitted calling me by my name in the office. She’s like a sister to me. Likewise, she went on.“That's all for your schedule today. And someone already delivered your red suit in your house. You cannot not go to the party.”
CEO MEETS HER Thirteen— Alleyway
Her thoughts.Two weeks later.The results are in.My palms were sweating. My heart was pounding so hard. I tried to calm myself down.“Breathe, Heather. Breathe.” I told myself.Today is the result if I got in to the next round of the Writer’s Luck competition.I opened my repaired laptop and went to my mail inbox.Five unread emails.Whew. I have to read the mail. No matter what.Then, I saw “The Writer’s Luck” email and opened it.It says,Hi Ms. Russell,Congratulations! You passed the next round of competition.For the next round of event, please click the link below for instructions.HTTP://x
CEO MEETS HER Fourteen— Trust
I was looking intently outside as if I could see the hooded man. I cannot comprehend if I am just imagining things back in that alleyway or not. One thing is for sure, I will never try wandering in the alleyway next time.My entire body is in shock. You know the feeling when you wanted to cry, but you are too numbed to weep? That feeling.I am not certain if I should trust Alexander. The dude who almost killed me and also the gentleman who helped me. I cannot read this dude. Should I leave? But what if the hooded man was there lurking in the dark waiting for me to go outside? I wished to call Sophia, but I cannot. My battery’s already 35 percent. I cannot wait here any longer. But I am too petrified to go outside. I scanned my contact list. Sadly, there is no one to call for help.“Heather.” I looked up and saw Alexander. I felt relieved to see him and to hear his voice. Likewise, I know
CEO MEETS HER Fifteen— Cocktail Dress
I suddenly woke up. Thinking about yesterday’s scenario was a nightmare. I also remembered hugging him. Ugh! I have never been so embarrassed in my life I thought. But what was surprising is that Alexander, if I may say somehow, is a kind person. He helped a total stranger like me. And he even suggested for me to sleep in his house. I should thank him.I saw a glass of water on the table with a note:“Rest as much as you want. My secretary will go there to bring you some food and clothes.— Alexander”This is too much. Are all rich people this generous? He's just like Sophia.I thought of calling them both to tell them not to bother, but I realized maybe they are busy. So, I ended up leaving a note too.“Alexander,Thank you for your help, and thank you for letting me stay at your place last night. I apologize if I
CEO MEETS HER Sixteen— The Party
Brisk walking in heels is indeed a challenge. I have reached my destination, and I was gasping for air. I stopped for a moment to catch some air and the guards of the hotel were looking at me. One guard asked me if I need assistance. I told him I am all right. I entered the hotel and went straight to the front desk to ask where the nearest washroom. Then, I followed the staff’s instruction and found the comfort room. As I looked in the mirror, I said, “you look awful, Heather!” My face all oily and sweaty. The makeup is gone. I think I did my best to freshen up a little. I still have five minutes before the party starts.I am now at the elevator going up to the 20th floor of the hotel. When I got off the lift, the hallway was quiet. There was a sign that lead to the banquet hall. There was a queue before entering the hall. And for added security measure,
