Third Person Pov

(Flashback continuation)

The girls walked together to the company’s auditorium, where they were told the orientation would take place. This was the biggest tech company in the city, and everyone was fighting to get in, so for the interns, this was an opportunity of a lifetime they couldn’t joke with.

Cassia and Celine sat two rows away from the podium because they didn’t want to be at the extreme back or too close to the front. This was Cassia’s idea, and Celine was fine with either.

The hall was filled with interns and old employees of the company. The orientation began.

They all sat through five hours of lectures and presentations. They were exhausted, but the adrenaline of it being the first day still kept them going.

When the current speaker was done, he asked a series of questions to the audience. A few were answered by random interns, but only Nathaniel got most of the questions right.

"He is so brilliant," Celine said as she looked at how confidently her fello

    Third Person Pov“Put the things in the kitchen and start prepping. I will come out and join you once I change out of this outfit,” Celine told the maid as they entered the house after their shopping.“Ma’am? You want to cook?” the maid asked in shock.“Yes, of course,” Celine replied with a laugh, as if she had just been asked the obvious.“Okay, ma’am,” the maid smiled. “Should I start with cooking the meat, or?” She asked Celine for advice since she would be the one cooking.“No, just wash everything thoroughly. I’ll do the rest when I get—” Celine was replying when Christopher swept her off her feet and spun her around, laughing in joy.“Drop me down!” Celine said, terrified that he might slip and fall with her.He spun her some more and laughed before dropping her.“What happened? Why are you so excited?!” Celine asked Christopher in shock.“I just finalized a business deal with someone I’ve been speaking with for months now! He is willing to invest a lot in the company. Celine,

    Third Person PovThe next day, Celine had a free day because she completed her work the day before. So all she had to do was relax at home and do whatever came to mind.“Let’s go shopping,” Celine said to the head of maids at the house.“Ma’am, you want to go shopping with me?” she asked Celine, as she was unsure what Celine was referring to when she said shopping.“Yeah. We can go grocery shopping together since I’m bored and the house needs them.”Immediately the maid heard that it was grocery shopping, she immediately calmed down and smiled, because she could not imagine herself giving the boss’s wife advice on which clothes to buy. She didn’t know anything about fashion and did not want to mess it up.She immediately went to the kitchen to get the list of things to buy before going to the butler for money and then going to Ma’am Celine to inform her that she was ready.The driver drove them to the nearby mall.Meanwhile, Rebecca went to the house to meet Celine. She finally came t

    Third Person Pov Celine and Christopher laughed at themselves immediately Victoria left.“Your father will think I’m a negative influence!” Celine said as she hurriedly stood up.“Hmm, but I like you like that,” Christopher replied in a flirty tone, making Celine pause in her steps to look at him.She smiled before saying, “Stop with all the teasing. We need to hurry up and go down before your dad leaves,” she told him.“To make it fast, I can join you in the shower…” he joked, as he knew that they weren’t there yet.“Ha ha, very funny,” Celine said as she entered the bathroom.They both freshened up quickly before heading downstairs to see that breakfast was already waiting for them.“You’re finally here,” Richard said to them with a knowing smile on his face.“Sorry for keeping you waiting, Dad,” Christopher said.“Good morning, Dad. How was your night? I hope you slept well?” Celine asked him before kissing his cheeks.“Not as well as you both,” Victoria replied, teasing them bot

    Third Person Pov“Celine? Are you awake?” Christopher called out to her.“Celine,” he called again, but this time he reached out to tap her.Celine was awake, but she was trying hard not to move. He didn’t let her go, though. He kept tapping her until she replied.“Yes? What do you want?” she asked as she turned to face him.“Why were you not replying to me?” Christopher asked her.“I’m trying to resist the weird energy between us, but you won’t take the hint!” she replied, frustrated. To her, it all felt like déjà vu, because this was not the first time she had slept in Christopher’s bed—but this time there was a sexual tension to it.While Christopher moved closer to her on the bed, with only an inch of space between them, he asked her calmly, maintaining eye contact, “What weird energy?”His breath fanned Celine’s face as he spoke, making it hard for her to form words—especially with his intense stare—but she had to speak. “This… I know you can feel it too,” she said.Christopher

    Third Person Pov Celine immediately started crying heavily. Christopher was touched and shocked. He was surprised that she liked him that much, to the point of crying because of his sad past.“It’s all in the past now, you don’t need to cry,” he told Celine, trying to comfort her, which only made her cry harder.“Celine, why are you crying?” Christopher couldn’t handle it again, because no matter how he comforted her, she just continued crying.“Your story is so sad, and I’m just thinking of how, after everything you’ve gone through, you still ended up with someone who is as broken as I am,” she said as more tears fell from her eyes.“Celine, do not say that! You’re not broken.” Christopher went to her side immediately.“Do you know why Nathaniel divorced me?” she asked him seriously, making Christopher think before answering.“Because he cheated on you with Cassia?” he asked, thinking that she was comparing Cassia with Rebecca and scared that one of them would hurt her.“I wish that

    Third person Pov “Can I join you?” Celine asked Christopher as she saw him drinking alone on their balcony.Christopher looked at her and smiled brightly. “Yeah, sure, why not? But do you drink scotch?” he asked, wondering if he should ask his butler to bring wine for her.“So you think I’m some baby that can’t handle my alcohol?” Celine teased.“I don’t mean to stereotype, but you don’t look like the alcohol type of girl,” he laughed before sipping from his glass.“You don’t mean to stereotype… was that before or after you did?” she laughed, pouring herself a glass and downing it immediately—only to end up choking on it.“Easy, easy… I know you want to prove that you can take scotch, don’t die trying,” he told her while laughing.“Ha-ha, very funny.”They joked and laughed until evening. That’s when the alcohol kicked in for both of them. They weren’t drunk, but the atmosphere and the alcohol made them more sensitive.“You know, there’s something I’ve been wanting to ask you for a w
