Gwyneths POV
I 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?"
Gwyneth's POV"You're aware that your performance for the past two months was atrocious, right?" Gerard confront me, and disppointment plastered on his face as he looked at me, making me lower my gaze due to embarrassment.I am fully aware of what he is referring to. Disappointment is actually an understatement for everything. I handled three projects and all of those went on disaster, not even a single event went successful. Even I was so disappointed of my performance because I know I could have done better if only I did my best and concentrated on what has to be done rather than being distracted of Kalex's presence.I have done everything not to cross path with him. I didn't even accept the project related to his company, but fate has its own way and still let him cross his path on mine. Who would think that he has a connection with all of my clients? From being a friend, a stock holder of the other and whatsoev
Gwyneth's POVI went to the Fuevo Corporation to see Alex. He said he has a list of some people who knows how to make decorations. He is also the one who takes care when their company has an event because he is Kalex' assistant. I also agreed to go to him because he said his boss was out of town.“Girl! How's your morning?" He said as he walked closer to me and greeted me to kiss. I was thirty minutes early in the time we agreed to meet."Are you busy? I can wait." I actually woke up really early because I wanted to do the work because I didn't want to disappoint Gerard."Of course not. I don't do anything so boring without sir." I was about to say something when his eyes suddenly went wide as if he was shocked at the person behind me. "Shit."
Gwyneth's POVI turned around when I felt someone behind me but I knew immediately who it was. I smiled at Kalex, but he didn't smile back at me. He just stared at me and I know that kind of look that he's giving me."Kalex, come on. I'm not going to kill myself." I tried to cracked a joke at him but he remained serious. I rolled my eyes. "Just because the man that I've loved for a decade is getting married doesn't mean that I should end my life. I should be happy for him ... and I am."I turned my back at him and looked at the sea of lights below. we are here today on the rooftop of the hotel where Quir’s company anniversary party was held. I am very happy for him because after years of proving to everyone that he can handle the company, he has finally proven something. i was really happy ... until he decided to propose to Gretchen.&nb
Gwyneth's POV"Why are you here?" I raised an eyebrow at Kalex when he arrived at the restaurant where we were supposed to be meeting for the Vogel Corporations event. Alex just waved his hand at me."Alex would you mind sharing to Ms. Presley the reason why we are here?" said Kalex arrogantly. Alex nodded and just smiled at me as I gave him a bad look."The only person in front of you now is the Vice President for operations of Vogel Corporations." I was stunned. Vice President? how did that happen when in fact he holds Fuevo Corporations?"H-ha?" How did he become the VP of the company that Callas parents owned? But Vogel Corporations manufactures food! I know Kalex is good at running a company because even though he is that smart, but how is he? They're not even related!
Gwyneth's POV"Kalex! Will you please let me go?" I tried to remove his hand that is tightly gripping my wrist. I really dont understand what makes him furious all lf a sudden. I know I ruined the wedding, but that was nothing to do with him. What's the big deal with him?"You're hurting me!" I yelled, being serious on my tone.He harshly let go of my hand, and I then caressed it as I check where he swollen part is. I saw him turning his back and see how he held a deep breathe. He's trying to calm his self after almost leaving a scar on my wrist. Tch. I don't have time for this. I badly need to go back to the wedding."Don't dare going back there!" he shouted when I motioned to the way back to church.I ignored him, not minding how mad his voice was. I need an update of what's going on now. I wonder if the wedding will still continue after putting a show just a while ago.&n
