Gwyneths POV
8 years ago,
"Gwyn," I turned to the man who called my name. He was cheerful and playful, but now, he just looks serious and doesnt have any streak of excitement. I ignored him and just drank from the glass of wine I was holding.
this is his condo unit so even though I don't want a partner, I have no right to evict him. He has a house so he rarely comes here. He entrusted the other key of this unit to me because he knew there were times, I just wanted to be alone.
"It was you, wasn't it?" He asked. Of course, he knows. He knew that I was the only one who could do that to Maureen. Which I don't even regret doing because that's just his thing. He kidnapped the man who should have been for me.
"Yes, I am. So?" He massaged his temple. She sighed and sat down next to me.
I hired a p
Gwyneth's POVIt's good to start in a place you don't know. Being in a different country gives me the freedom of starting a new life, away from the prying eyes of those people whom I thought I knew, but did nothing but to judge the hell out of me.Sir Ferdie-our manager- gave me a wide smile as I entered his office. He's warm and charming even at the age of fifty years old. I've met his wife and she's just as lovely. In fact, his family is cute. They are also Filipino, as much as possible because this hotel prefers to employ Filipinos because the owner is also Filipino."Gwyn, I have good news." Wow. The last time he called me in his office he also said that line and the next thing I knew, I was promoted. I smiled at him. "You're getting a promotion."I was stunned. Again? Immediately? It was as if I could already hear the resentme
Gwyneth's POVI was currently lying on the sofa, simply chilling and feeling the ambiance of our new home. Mom told me earlier that we will be living in this enormous mansion. I couldnt feel anything but just a pure excitement. Who wouldnt?Hey?I was taken aback when someone called my attention, making me sit up straight and gaze to the boy whom I guess the same age as me.Im Kalex, he introduced himself but I was mesmerized by his dazzling feature.Hes too handsome to be true. I love his visual.Call me Gwyn. I smiled back. Well, first impression last and I dont want to make him feel I am rude.He sat down next to me, and smiled even more. I also noticed that he has this natural light brown hair, which I think because he has a race. I am not sure though.Are you Aunt Elmas daughter? I simply nodded
Gwyneths POVHe froze when he saw me, and so I am. I dont know but it feels like as if my heart beats faster than the usual. I couldnt speak nor move. Its just that, my world seems to slow down and cant be able to move my gaze away from staring at him.The elevator door automatically closed so he then pressed the button to prevent it from closing. He never averted his eyes to other direction, just on mine. We stayed like that for a few seconds and when I finally composed my mind and self, I then bowed down, showing my respect because hes my boss after all and Im just his employee.Gwyn,Yes, sir? I formally asked, thinking that he needs something from me the reason why he called me.Oh sir, good you even caught up with Miss Gwyn. She's the event organizer sent by the Moonlight hotel." Alex approached behind him, making him shifted his eyes to my friend.&
Gwyneths POVSeveral years agoWhy is she even close to Kalex? Shes just nothing by a complete mess. I heard someone whispered to the girl she was with, behind me.Its pretty obvious that she was pertaining to me but I just let it passed and didnt mind them. What else would I get if I were to answered back and defend myself?Know your place, b*tch!I was taken aback when the other mean girl suddenly walked past me and intentionally pushed my harshly, making me almost slumped on the hallway, but thank God, I managed to maintain my balance.I stared at their back as they make their way, and after a few seconds, I continued walking on the way to the cafeteria. I bother not to fight back and chose not to cause any mess. They wont do me any good anyway.Hey! Kalex greeted me with a sm
Gwyneths POVI was walking on the street, sipping a coffee while eyes on phone as I read my sons message to me. I went out for a while just to buy a coffee because I dont feel like tasting the coffee on our cafeteria. I smiled when I saw Jases message. Looks like he aced his exam once again."Gwyn!"I turned around to see whos yelling my name but I see no one. Aish. I continued walking but I didnt expect to hear my name for the second time. "Gwyn!!" This time, its louder compared earlier. Just like what I did, I turned again to check if who the it is.I dont see anyone but the voice is somewhat familiar."Gwyneth!"I stopped on my track when I saw Maureen running towards me. What the h*ll this b*tch is doing on here? I was about to nagged her when she suddenly jumped out of excitement and hugged me so tight. "I miss you so much. Where were you all
Gwyneth's POV<F L A S H B A C K>"Hey!" I lifted my gaze to the second floor of the building and stopped from walking. "Are you alright?" he asked. It was Quir who called my attention."I guess so." I showed him a half-smile. I then saw him rushed downstairs and in just a second, hes now standing in front of me."Any problem? What about an ice cream for your gloomy smile?" he's wearing his sweetest smile as if trying to cheer me up.I am so devastated right now after hearing from someone that Quir is seeing another girl. Yeah, I just admire him and has a bit crush on him, but I didnt expect to feel this pain. Do I look stupid? Thats how I felt."Lets go," he held my hand and pulled me as he started to walk.I didnt bother to speak or make any noise because I know that hes a silent type of a person. I just let him dragged
Gwyneth's POVTomorrow is my day off since its Saturday. I wanted to hang out with someone because I feel like my life is getting boring and boring even more. As much as I wanted to have fun with my son, I chose not to due to our situation. We just had a facetime every night for at least thirty minutes before he goes to sleep. That is better compared not to seeing him all day.I was currently facing my phone, playing my favorite game when I received a message coming from Alex. Alex and I became really close and we actually went out and hang out for several times. I didnt even expect to have a bond with him.Alex: B*tch! Dont you have plan of telling me that you handed over to another event organizer your project which is the anniversary event of Fuevo Corp? Are you insane?I rolled my eyes after reading his message. Yeah, its been a week since I handed over the project to Valerie. Shes more exp
Gwyneth's POVI groaned as I woke up when I felt my head throbbing in pain. This is must be the hangover after getting intoxicated last night. I landed my gaze at bedside table and see that it's already eight in the morning.I checked under the blanket and automatically frowned when I saw what I am wearing. A pajama? Seriously? I can't remember when was last night the time I change my clothes. Ugh! I can't remember anything. What just happened? I just tugged my hair, thinking how did I able to got home safe despite being drunk. How? I mean, did I drove? Or did someone drove me home?My forehead creased even more when I suddenly smelled something, and I am sure it was from my kitchen. I stood, but still can't get enough thinking of many how's and why's. Did I just brought some random guy last night? I can't remember even just a single thing and that's what makes me even more annoyed."Hey?"
