Just as she was trying to calm her pounding heart, the rain poured down slowly, drenching her a bit and her body reacting by shivering. The sound of thunder echoed through the darkened streets, adding to her unease. As she walked with hurried steps, desperately seeking shelter, a sudden flash of headlights illuminated her face, momentarily blinding her. She instinctively shielded her eyes, squinting through the rain-soaked strands of her hair.To her surprise, the car came to a halt right in front of her, its engine purring softly. Through the misty windshield, she could make out the silhouette of a man behind the wheel.'Isn't this Boss' car?'She asked herself. The car door opened, and the driver stepped out, holding an umbrella to shield himself from the downpour. He looked at her with concern, his eyes reflecting the faint glow of the streetlights."Hello Miss Oslon," he said, his voice warm and inviting. "The boss asked to give you a ride home. It's raining and there are no tax
Scar didn’t dare tell Nat of what Seb did to her the other night, she didn’t dare to tell Natalie that, Sebastian had actually sent her out of his car. She was scared that because Natalie is a very wild person she would definitely go to attack Sebastian and that man! that boss of hers was really crazy. "scar, have you had anything to eat?" Scar rolled her eyes and said, "didn’t you just see that I just woke up?"Nat chuckled, she shook her head dramatically at her friends grumpy attitude."ok fine, I will go out now to get you something to eat""Just hurry up already" Scar scolded with an eye roll.Natalie walked out immediately.The moment Natalie left, the smile on Scar’s face disappeared.She hurriedly grabbed her phone to call the company."Hello?" Seb's voice sounded impatient on the other end of the line.Taking a deep breath, Scar mustered all her strength and said, "Boss. It's Miss Olson, I'm calling to ask for a leave. I'm currently at the hospital and won't be able to com
Scar goes home to Nat waiting impatiently for her return.On seeing Scar walk through the door, Nat immediately ran up to her."And how did it go?" She impatiently asked."I already applied for a few jobs elsewhere for you and I’m so damn sure you’ll get them!"Natalie continued to ramble on and on and Scar just gave her is skeptical look. Scar sighed tiredly and slumped on the couch first of all."I’m sorry to disappoint you, but I am not quitting my job"Nat was taken aback by this information."What?""Yep, I’m not quitting"Natalie glared at her and then sat beside her. She asked "are you kidding me?!""No, I’m not kidding" Said Scar with a shrug.Natalie‘s lips twitched as she screamed on top of her voice like a banshee "are you saying that I have been wasting my time all along surfing the Internet just to find you a job and you didn’t even tell me, you didn’t want to quit your job anymore?!"Scars head snaps to Natalie and a soft expression appeared on her face. She smiled, "d
Scar realized she had left her purse in Seb's office and wanted to avoid him for a little while. She decided to go back to his office to search for her purse, hoping it was still there.As Scar entered the office, she spotted her purse on the couch and felt a wave of relief wash over her. She quickly grabbed it and made her way out.Just as she left, Michelle emerged from another room in the office, wearing a knowing smile. "Time to go, bitch," she whispered, flipping her blonde hair and walking away.She was so determined to chase Scar out of the company and that was exactly what she would do.No matter what.Sebastian soon arrived at the company and into his office. Surprisingly, he was in a good mood because, a certain someone had decided to surprise him with a gift.As he walked into his office, his eyes darted straight to his desk, where a small box sat, resembling the perfect size for a watch. His always stoic face broke out in a smile, a soft smile at that. With anticipation f
Sebastian was absolutely furious. I mean, you could practically see the steam coming out of his ears just by looking at his darkened expression.He had his eyes fixed on Scarlett. Actually, scratch that, he was straight-up glaring at her.If looks could kill, she'd probably be six feet under by now."Come closer, Miss Oslon," he commanded, his voice so low and authoritative.She wanted to resist or maybe show some stubbornness.But she knew better than to do that.Scarlett's heart raced as she found herself inexplicably drawn closer to Sebastian. Michelle, who had been standing in the corner, wore a sly smile that only Scarlett could see. Feeling a sudden urge to break the tension, Scarlett coughed awkwardly and greeted Sebastian. However, before she could utter a word, he silenced her with a swift gesture, extending his hand as if to command her to stop talking. Scarlett obediently clamped her mouth shut, her curiosity mounting.Sebastian's piercing gaze locked onto her. "Were you r
Everyone casted a look of disdain on Scar. No one had expected her to actually steal the watch —as they thought.Seb smiled softly, his eyes frozen over again.He looked at her teary face and sighed.One thing he hated most, was theft. No one steals from Sebastian Ashford and goes unscathed.Right now, he wanted to believe that the last thing she could do, was steal. But with all the damn evidence pointing to her, he didn’t know what to believe anymore.“Why did you steal it?“ he asked and she glared at him.“I know you must already despise me, but to think I stole from you?“ she scoffed, “in your dreams”And her sharp tongue was still intact.“A watch was pulled out of your purse, and you still have the right to scold our boss? Pathetic bitch” Michelle was the one who spoke up and Scar raised a brow.“You said a watch, Not His watch” she corrected angrily, “And I’m very sure that the boss isn’t blind enough to notice that this watch right here” she gestured to the watch in his left h
After Scarlett wrapped up her explanation, everybody gasped and murmurs broke out. "I can't believe this." One girl said."Michelle stooped low." another said."And she acts so high and mighty." another scoffed.All the comments being thrown around somehow got to Michelle and she exploded in anger, "Enough! I've had enough of your stupid comments, how dare you say that about me huh? So what if I tried to sabotage Scarlett, what's it to all of you, moreover, she doesn't deserve to work here!"Everyone fell silent looking at her with dismay, she sauntered forward heading towards Scarlett with a murderous look but was stopped by Sebastian before she could reach her, "Not another step." He snarled, his teeth gritted and eyes filled with rage."You have extremely disappointed me, I expected better from you Michelle." He shook his head at her and motioned for the guards to come over. "Empty her desk and take her out of my sight.""Of course sir." The two guards chorused and went to first cl
Ding! Ding! Ding! Scar’s alarm went off, waking her up at the ungodly hour of 6 am but she was thankful for it or else she would have overslept as she went to bed at 3 am. 'Stupid clock'She woke up with a yawn and stretched her libs to their full size then got out of bed.She sleepily sauntered to the bathroom with her eyes half open, her greatest advantage was that she knew the room inside out and there was no way she could bump into anything, hit the wall or anything like that.After taking a cold shower to awaken her senses, she headed to her closet to get what she'd wear for the day.After struggling a bit, she settled on a white blouse with black polka dots and a plain black pencil skirt that hugged her curves perfectly. Not being a lover of makeup, Scar put on some light blush, eyeliner, mascara with a touch of lipgloss and tied her hair in a neat perfect bun.She gazed at her appearance in the mirror and was satisfied with what she saw. "Good"She proceeded to quickly clean
