(Ivy)

Well, he knows it's me but it wouldn't hurt to convince him otherwise.

But being the stubborn ass that I'm so proud of being, I refused to back down…you can put it down to my instincts as a lawyer.

I had to keep up with it, if I want to get him off unscathed.

    (Calvin)“We've agreed not to talk about this, Dad.” I strained through my teeth. “And certainly not here,” I say, my tone sharper than I intended.My mother let out a slow exhale, arm in arm with Frederick Williams, the man after her heart. “Someone has to, son. It's been three years already, you can't continue to fight your brother,” “Cousin,” I corrected, my blood boiling beneath the surface.My father sighs and shakes his head. “He's your blood, son. Let by gone be by gone, please?”Wow, so now everyone thinks I'm the heartless one?And why are they even the ones pitching about this to me, when the fucker clearly knows what he's doing?That asshole betrayed me, stole my first ever business plan and ran off.I sigh. This has taken up enough of my time.Choosing silence over anger, I pull my gift from beside me. “Happy birthday Dad.” I cut straight to why I was here in the first place.They both exchange glances but leave me be, anyway. “Thank you, son.” he says, taking the gift fr

    (Ethan)Dean blinks and shifts his gaze to me. “Wait… Tricia is Ivy?” he twisted in his seat, surprise clawed his features.When I nod, he rolls his eyes. “This is— almost unbelievable,” he muttered, his words coming out in a stutter. “When Bella said you both kinda know each other, I …I didn't think it was…you know?”I give him a wry smile. “I didn't believe it myself.” I tell him.Dean straightens up and locked his eyes on mine. “Why did she lie about who she was?” he asked.I tilt my head. “Hard to say. I still haven't figured out why,”The truth is that I had hardly thought about that, I hated lies and deceit yet that didn't stop me, getting closer to Ivy has occupied the main position in my mind.This is so not like me and I'm painfully aware of it.Dean looks across from me and raise a brow. “So what are you going to do about it?” A smug grin appears. “I think the real question should be what haven't I done?” Dean's brows shoots up. “Well?”I pinched the bridge of my nose. “I

    (Ivy)“Incredible,” Sabrina breathes out, her eyes lightening up as she goes over my business proposal. “This is to my liking, Ivy. I for one love to venture into businesses with solid prospects and this is it,” she tells me, making me feel all warm inside.“Thank you, Sabrina.” my voice carries a hint of pride as I say this.Without wasting anymore time, she signs the contract, gently pushing the file over to me to put down my signature and I did.“Welcome on board, it's up to you now,” she tells me, a soft smile sitting on her lips.I nod. “Sure, and be rest assured I’ll give it my all, you won't regret this,” I say and she flashes me a smile, nodding.“I'm certain I won't, and I believe Ethan will put in as much work too,” she says and I suddenly roll my eyes.“Ethan?” I ask, genuinely confused.Her eyes lit up. “Oh, I almost forgot to mention, I won't be directly in charge of this, someone else will. He's most reliable,” she says and watches me for a second. “I hope that won't be a

    (Rihanna)I stepped out of Mr Grumpy's office, confused as hell. What was that about?I get the part where I'm supposed to show up at his father's party as his assistant, but was his cranky attitude really necessary?“There will be important people at the party. Try not to embarrass me or there'll be consequences,” he said through literal clenched teeth and I quote.That wasn't a statement, it was a clear warning. The terrible scowl on his face when he says this tells me he dislikes the idea of me being there but is he joking?I want to be in that goddamn party even less than he wants me to!But then, I don't exactly have a choice, do I?With his words or rather threat in mind I strutted out of his office, not sure how I feel about this not-so new arrangement.According to him, the company will take care of my clothing expenses and any extra. I didn't need to worry about that.My job was simple, turn up looking appealing, hang around in case of business emergency and speak only when sp
