(P.S. - Dear reader, don't skip this part, as it will help you gain a better understanding of the story.)

…,...As soon as Elvis left, Harriet dismissed Jordan's offer to show her to her workstation, instead hurrying to the elevator. She pressed the button, her eyes fixed on the display as she waited for the doors to open. Her determination was clear: she was going to follow Elvis and find out where he was headed.

HARRIET POV:::::::

‘I've gone to great lengths to get Elvis's attention, yet it seems I'm still invisible. Yes, I did marry someone else, but any woman in my position would have done the same - he was young and had nothing to offer. Perhaps that's why he's reluctant to give us a chance. I divorced my husband for him, but he refuses to notice or even look my way. I assumed he divorced his ex-wife for me, to be with me, but his lack of interest since then suggests otherwise. The painful truth is, he might have used me to get rid of her. That's probably exactly what happened.’

    Elvis PovI stood outside the bathroom door, my anger simmering. "Come out now," I demanded, banging on the door.As I waited for Tessa to emerge, my mind replayed the scene. Rolex ...Rolex ...Rolex Again and again, she'd locked herself away to talk to him. The realization hit me like a ton of bricks - did she run off after the divorce to be with him?.The emotions swirling inside me were overwhelming. Jealousy, anger, and hurt mixed together in a toxic cocktail. Just then, a message popped up from my assistant. "Sir, we couldn't get any information on him. Seems he's quite powerful." The words only added fuel to the fire. Who was this Rolex, and what hold did he have over Tessa? I was determined to find out.That explains why I couldn't find Tessa all these years. She is back on my turf, I definitely won't give her a chance to leave.I clenched my fist, feeling a surge of frustration. "Find out everything you can about Rolex," I instructed my assistant through a text messa

    Tessa's POV Elvis's laughter slowly subsided, but he still has a smile on his face, " you are beautiful when you're grumpy," i ignored his words " How long have you been here?"I asked, sitting up with a stern look.Elvis's smile didn't waver, but his eyes sparkled with amusement at my attempt to change the subject. "Long enough," he replied, his voice low and teasing.He sat up on the floor, leaning against the bed frame, and gazed at me with an unapologetic grin. "I didn't mean to cuddle you for so long," he said, "but you looked so peaceful, I didn't want to disturb you.""I didn't ask you that", I cut him off rudely, but he didn't seem to mind. Looking towards the bedside table, I sighted a document, Elvis' gaze followed mine. "we need to talk about that", he said referring to the document, the playful atmosphere dissipated without a trace. "Why are you doing this?" I asked, my voice barely above a whisper, the emotions I tried to hide, seeping through the cracks. ‘At one po

    Elvis povJust then my phone rang, and my frustration skyrocketed. I glanced at the caller ID, and my eyes narrowed at the name flashing on the screen 'Harriet'. 'I'm sincerely not in the mood for her pretentiousness'it kept ringing, making me increasingly annoyed."What?" I asked coldly, my tone icy. Harriet hesitated, clearly sensing my frustration. "uhmm..uhm, did i disturb your work?" she asked innocently. i calmed down, she isn't the cause of my frustration while transferring it to her?. "I'm sorry for the way i sounded, work stress”"I understand brother Elvis, I am at your house but you are not back yet, I brought your favorite."" Yeah, I'm busy, " I said, fabricating a convenient excuse." I went for a business meeting." The lie rolled off my tongue effortlessly, and I hope Harriet buys that.

    Elvis POV As she sat beside me, I couldn't help but give her a glance. She looked more beautiful than I can remember, in good shape and fairer, the emotions swirling inside me are unexplainable. I promised Harriet that I will marry her, but I can't seem to move on from her. Despite all my efforts, I couldn't shake off the feeling that I still want her. i missed her, her innocent looks, her gentleness. blocking her car from moving, manipulating her into my own vehicle, it all seemed so irrational. There's no tangible reason for doing that, except for the fact that I don't want her out of my sight again after so many years. I can't bear the thought of it. so i had to come up with the business deal she came back for, hopefully that will stall her.Then I noticed her gaze on my hands, specifically my ring finger.
