LOGINDo you believe in Nina?
Nina’s POVI stood on the rooftop, the cold breeze brushing against my face and blowing my hair backward.After the accusations, I couldn't help but wonder if leaving Carter Global would be the best decision.I didn't know who was behind all of this, but it could seriously affect Carter Global, especially Alexander.I didn't want his company to fail because of me. He had worked so hard to get where he was.His years of effort shouldn't be in vain because of me.“Maybe leaving would be the best thing for us,” I whispered to myself.My heart tightened.The thought of leaving was breaking my heart, but I had to do it. I wiped away the tears threatening to fall from my eyes.“Do you always run away when life becomes difficult?” His deep voice jolted me.I turned around and found him standing behind me. “How long have you been standing there?” I couldn't help but ask. He seemed to have been there for some time.“Long enough to hear your plan,” he replied as he walked toward me.The breeze
Nina's POVWork resumed as usual. The only difference was that today we were going to sign an international contract.With this contract, Carter Global would gain international recognition.The board members would also be present today.For some reason, I felt nervous.After making sure everything was in order, I went to meet Chloe while she was cleaning.Whenever I had nothing to do, we would sit together and chat. Even during lunch breaks, we often ate together whenever I didn't feel like going to the cafeteria.Recently, we haven't spent much time together.Carter Global was a very large company. It was so big that you could go an entire day without seeing someone you usually met every day.After talking for a while, we both returned to our respective duties."I hope everything is ready," Alexander asked the moment he walked in.He wore such a serious expression that every employee was instinctively tensed.No one needed to tell me that he meant business today."Yes, sir," I replie
Nina's POV Soon, the picnic was over.Alexander carried Finn while holding Mia as he walked me to his car."I'll be driving you home," he said calmly.I nodded. I didn't argue with him this time. I'd learned not to because it was pointless. Anything he decided to do, he would do. Nothing could change his mind.The ride wasn't quiet.The kids couldn't stop talking about the picnic or asking Alex questions.I relaxed in the back seat as they bombarded him with one question after another.Once he dropped us off, Mia immediately hugged him and asked, "Can we come again next year?"Without thinking, he replied, "Yes."He seemed to be getting attached to the kids.Nolan's POVI still couldn't believe that Nina had really moved on. She used to be head over heels in love with me.I knew I had messed up, but a second chance would be enough for me to make it up to her.I just couldn't stand seeing her with Alexander. It broke my heart.My phone screen lit up, and a notification popped in.The
Nina's POV Deep down, I knew Alexander wouldn't want a child to paint his face, so I held the children back from joining the face-painting activity."Mom, everyone is drawing on their dad's face," Ethan said, pointing at the children painting on their fathers' faces."I know, sweetheart, but you can't..." I didn't know what to say, so I paused."Mom, you said we could find Dad if we came back from the States. Where is he?" Mia asked innocently.Thankfully, everyone was busy with the event, so no one was paying attention to the conversation between me and my kids.How do I explain to them that I don't know their father? I haven't even seen him or learned his name."Can I draw on Uncle Alex's face?" Finn asked softly."I want to draw on his face too." Mia pouted."Me too," Ethan added."No, baby, you can't. Uncle Alex won't allow it.""And who says I won't allow it?" he said as he suddenly appeared out of nowhere."Yay!" the kids chorused.He looked at the three of them and said, "Finn
Nina's POV My kids were over the moon when I broke the news about the family picnic to them.Finn couldn't hide his excitement. "Mom, will I get to see Uncle Alex?" he asked.Before I could answer, Ethan replied instead. "Of course! Uncle Alex is Mom's boss." He folded his arms, trying to flex his tiny muscles like a superhero.Little did they know that Alexander might not even attend. Poor kids.The next day, we got ready and headed to the family picnic.At first, I didn't want to bring the kids because no one at work knew I had children. But since it was a family picnic, I had no choice.Besides, I couldn't leave them home alone on a Saturday.The venue was filled with children and couples. Of course, it was a family picnic. Husbands, wives, and children were all welcome.I knew the kids would want to play with the others, so I bent down to Finn's height. "Don't run around too much so you don't get hurt," I said as I straightened his shirt.He nodded. Then I turned to Ethan. "You n
Zoe's POVI returned home late that night only to find my apartment door unlocked.I was certain I had locked it before leaving that morning.Fear gripped my heart.I didn't know if the person who had broken in was still inside, and Sarah no longer lived with me.Nervously, I stepped inside.Maybe I had been in such a hurry that morning that I forgot to lock the door.Yet I couldn't shake the feeling that someone had been here.I tiptoed through the living room. To my surprise, everything was exactly as I had left it.Nothing had been broken. Nothing was out of place.I rushed to my bedroom. It was the same. Everything was neatly arranged, just as I had left it.I quickly checked my wardrobe.The important documents I had hidden there were still untouched.A sigh of relief escaped my lips.Thankfully, nothing had been stolen.Or perhaps... I really had forgotten to lock the door.Slowly, I sat on the edge of my bed. That's when I noticed a folder lying on the center table.I hadn't se
**Nina**“Another one, please.”The bartender refilled my glass with whiskey, and I swallowed it in one gulp. I winced as the alcohol burned down my throat and settled heavily in my stomach.I slammed the empty glass onto the counter.“One more!”The bar was loud, filled with neon lights, heavy bas
NinaThe smell of coffee and butter pulled me out of sleep before the light did. I cracked one eye open.Zoe stood at the edge of the bed with a tray balanced on one hand, dressed like she was about to close a deal. Her blazer was perfectly fitted, her dark hair pulled back neatly, and her heels
NinaI was watching a movie when Zoe’s call flashed across my screen. I hate it when I'm disturbed while watching a movie, especially my favorite, MY DEMON. This is a popular Korean movie that just came out, and I'm literally glued to my phone.A second later, she called again.And again.With an i
**Nina**“You really did something crazy,” Zoe laughed.We were talking about last night, and honestly, I expected her to be angry. But she wasn’t. Instead, she was doing everything possible to make me feel better.“Sleeping with a stranger is better than wasting years with Nolan,” she said, her ex
