MasukSorry for the late update! (ᗒᗩᗕ)
Elizabeth's POV***That evening, I immediately called Janet to tell her I had an appointment with Victor Samaniego tomorrow. I was surprised when she informed me that Victor had long stopped accepting external appointments from Dad's company. I asked why, and she explained that Victor's company had already pulled out its shares.Like… huh? Why? Just last month, a formal meeting took place between our companies. Why would he do something like that now?"Okay. Just tell his secretary that I am coming tomorrow to speak with him directly," I replied while admiring my freshly painted nails. Crimson red—my favorite shade."This is noted, Ms. Elizabeth.""And please don't forget to have my dinner delivered to my unit tonight, okay?" After saying that, I ended the call.I sat alone in the living room, painting my nails while plotting how to bring him down.Should I flirt with him? Should I just get his attention? It looked like Victor was going to be my newest target.Based on everything I h
Elizabeth's POV *** He shoved me out of his condo unit with such force that I nearly slipped and face-planted on the hallway floor. Unbelievable! I turned to glare at Victor, who was looking at me as if I had just robbed him blind. All I did was sleep in his room! It wasn't like I took a dump in it! "Why are you shoving me? What if I tripped and smashed my face against the floor?!" I snapped at him irritably while trying to fix my disheveled hair. "I don't care. Do you have any idea how disruptive you are to someone who's trying to rest? Just because you're a woman doesn't mean I'm going to overlook the fact that you trespassed into my home." My eyes widened in disbelief. "What?! Trespassed?! Me?! I did not trespass into your house! And for the record, if you had just told me that it wasn't my house, I wouldn't have slept here in the first place!" The audacity of this man to make accusations! He may be gorgeous, but his words cut like knives! I was drunk last night! So instea
Elizabeth's POV *** I don't know how many times I blinked. I kept thinking that maybe, if I opened my eyes again, Victor's face would disappear—the face that was now staring at me, his brows slowly furrowing. Why was he standing in front of my own house? Didn't he realize he was at the wrong one? "W-why? Are you inside… of my house?" I asked, my words slurring as I pointed at him. I know he was freaking handsome! Plus those two beautiful fucking blue eyes! "Can you repeat that?" "Are you dumb? Why… are you inside my house?" A sudden ache shot through my head, and I clutched my forehead in pain! Shit! The alcohol was hitting me again! It hurt so much! Argh! I just want to lie down! I just want to sleep! "Shit! Move! Fuck, my head hurts so bad!" I yelled. I shoved him aside and quickly stepped into my house, even though Victor's muscular body was blocking the doorway. Even though he was only wearing a t-shirt, I couldn't deny the beautiful shape of his body. I could tell he wor
He raised an eyebrow. He looked at me as if there was something wrong with what I said. Why? Did he really think I would have a relationship with a man like Marcus? Hell? Over my dead body! "So you're not?" "Of course! I am not! Look at me? Will you be in a relationship---" I looked at Marcus from the corner of my eyes, his eyes were still staring at me and this man with blue eyes. "To someone like him? Hell, no." I rolled my eyes after I said that. Well, because we were enemies, he suddenly confronted Marcus. And my eyes just widened what he said next. "Bud, you better find someone who wants you. Don't settle for less. You deserve someone better." He said and then smiled at me like he won. To my surprise, I couldn't speak anymore, he stared at me for a few seconds with a wide smile on his lips before walking, passing me and going straight as if he didn't embarrass anyone. I feel like he shouted the word that he won by humiliating me. Shit. Why did I even hope that he
"Before anything else---" "Are you for real, Mr. Gallagher?" I cut off what he was about to say. He stopped talking and his eyes widened as I stared at him... blankly. I don't think this is okay. I don't really feel like talking to him right now. "W-wait, I'll tell you why I'm he---" "No. Get out." I said as my patience was running out and pointed my index finger to the door. I closed my eyes and before I lost control and threw my phone to Mr. Gallagher, we heard three knocks from the door. My forehead creased as I looked at the man in front of me, he looked terrified. "Ms. Elizabeth? Uh, you have a visitor." Mr. Peter's said from the door. I tap my nails as I looked around, trying to calm myself down. And who is this other visitor today? "Who is it?" I will ask. Mr. Peter opened the door slightly and his head peeped through the space and he looked at me and I noticed that he seemed hesitant to tell me who was outside. My head hurts even more because of what is hap
Morning came. I thought that the problem I was facing would be over immediately because I was able to find out who plan to spread the video that happened yesterday inside the restaurant. How the man with the blue eyes, handsome face and elegant body put me to shame. But even though I learned a lot about him, it wasn't enough to cover Mr. Buenaventura, my father's rage to me. I almost jumped in shock because of the force of his palm hitting his desk while I was standing in front of him. I can clearly see his rage from his eyes. Telling me that I am so fucked up today. "What do you think you're doing, Elizabeth? You're making a scandal? And you literally do it inside a restaurant with a lot of people?!" I closed my eyes with the force of his voice. I want to roll my eyes because of what he's doing now. If I am scandalous, what is he? Is it okay for him to embarrass me, his daughter, in front of the people he is meeting with here in his office? I fucking feel their stares at my bac
Elizabeth couldn't get rid of her annoyance even after she got out of the restaurant. He even met Mr. Gallagher and the man immediately retreated and moved away from her, the fear on his face was obvious when she bumped into him.If only on another occasion she would have enjoyed seeing his scared
The sunlight was warm as Elizabeth or Eliza looked out the window next to her. She was currently inside the car, alone as she watched the gigantic ships in the distance. There are many people she doesn't know if they're tourist or people who working here, well regardless of whether anyone is looking
