MARA
Jayson's car stopped in front of the Fernandez Corporation building, and Bobby stopped behind his car. The guard quickly opened the car, greeting him.I waited for him to enter the building before I thanked Bobby and exited the car. I went inside and went straight to the reception area. I gave a side glance to Jayson when I noticed that he was still in the lobby talking to someone. I ignored him and went to the receptionist."Good morning, Miss. I'm Mara Park, and Mr. Revira is expecting me.""Good morning, Ma'am. I'll escort you to Mr. Revira's office." She stood up from her seat smiling at me. I'm thankful that she seemed kind and friendly."This way, ma'am." I followed behind her, and Jayson glanced at me for a few seconds and nodded before he returned his attention to his companion.The woman led me to the third floor, and she stopped in front of the door and knocked on it."Come in." A male voice replied. SheRelated chapters

MARA"You are the most beautiful in my eyes. Stop being insecure and do your work, or Camille will devour you later." He said, chuckling. I scoffed but went out of his office after he planted a kiss on my forehead.Camille's eyes were on me instantly. She was on my table glaring at me."What took you so long?""Mr. Fernandez just told me the do's and didn't in here, and he told me he doesn't want any mistakes because any mistake can hinder the business. He told me he doesn't like a flirty secretary. He likes his secretary to be efficient and has initiative.""Better he told you. I don't need to tell you about that. Now start your work.""Yes, Ma'am," I replied and settled on my seat. I was relieved when she returned to her office because I felt like the hair on my body stood up when she was near me. I picked up the first folder and started my work. Camille didn't even introduce me to my colleagues, but I don't mind because the four others are snobs, like the head secretary.At lunchti

MARAThese few days of working with Jayson have gone smoothly. Claire and I have become best friends, and I'm thankful I haven't bumped into Jared.Even though Camille gives me a load of work, I don't mind, and the others order me to send a document to other departments and sometimes ask me to Xerox, a bundle of papers. I endured it without complaint. Every time Jayson sees me doing a lot of work, he will call Camille and give him a load of work too, but of course, Camille will only pass it to other secretaries. They still treated me coldly, but I just ignored them. Bobby is following Jayson's car as always. We are heading back home after a long day of work. It's already seven in the evening, and I'm exhausted. I stepped out of the car as soon as Bobby parked in the garage, and I smiled to see my father standing at the front door, smiling at us."Dad!" I run to him and throw my arms around his neck. He chuckled and wrapped his

MARAI knocked on his door, and he quickly replied to come in. I pushed the door opened and walked inside, closing the door behind me."Lock the door, Mrs. Fernandez." I rolled my eyes and locked the door. He always called me Mrs. Fernandez when we were alone."What did I do this time, sir?" I asked."Come here." He motioned me to come closer to him, holding some documents. I went to him and stood beside him."You are the one who did this?" He asked, showing me some files. It was a document of a particular project that needed his approval, but I'm not the one who did it. Camille didn't assign me to do that kind of important document. The work she always gives me is to do a copy of some documents, not only one but lots of them that my finger hurts so much after. Segregate the files or checks Mr. Fernandez's schedule."I didn't do that. Why, what's wrong with it?""The budget listed here is higher than we agreed in the mee

After the incident, Jayson didn't let me return to my desk outside. He kept me inside his office until it was time to go home. He wanted me to go with him in his car, but I firmly disagreed and went home with Bobby.This past week I wondered why every time we came home, all the servants seemed anxious, and sometimes I saw some of them running inside. And when we entered the front door, they greeted us with a welcoming smile, including Nana. They don't do this before. It only started a week ago, and it always makes Jayson and I laugh looking at them.I asked Nana about this, and she said they love to welcome us home together because they are happy for us that we are now good with each other.Jayson and I chuckled when we walked past them after greeting them and went to our room."You know they are acting weird," I said as we entered our room."I noticed that too. I wondered what they up to." He replied, taking off his coat while I went int

MARAI joined lunch with my father and Amy, and my father was right. She is very caring towards my father. I kept giggling, which embarrassed my father every time became very sweet to him. Amy seems the woman who loves to show public affection, and they both look adorable.After lunch, I bid goodbye to them and went to the office. I arrived in front of the building around two in the afternoon, and as soon as I stepped inside the building, all eyes were on me, but I ignored them. I think what happened yesterday everyone already knows.I went straight to the elevator, and I'm thankful that I am alone, but it doesn't last because before the elevator closed a hand stopped it from closing and when I saw the face of the person my eyes widen to see who was it."So the rumors are true," Jared said and stepped inside the elevator. I ignored him. I don't want any connection with this guy anymore. He is not the Jared that I loved before. This person is

MARA"Mara is my wife. ""What? Since when? And how?" Felix asked in surprise."You already know that she is Mr. Perez's daughter, and I already told you about Ara.""Yes, your first love," Felix said, and Jayson smiled."Yes, and I found out that day, you know, that I almost marry that woman. God, I'm so thankful that I found out before I married that bitch, or I will regret my whole life.""That's why I wondered you didn't go crazy after what happened." Jayson hissed at Felix's comment, and I chuckled. "I was wondering how you recovered so fast after the tragic incident, and Grandpa Phil is still in a coma, but I saw you return to your normal life, and I noticed you always smiled compared to before; it's because you married the love of your life.""Our marriage didn't start in a good term. Grandpa just forced us. He wrote it in his will. He will give all his assets to charity If I don't marry Mara before the end of the month after his accident, "This woman has been mean for two mon

"He is not my son. Why would I care?" The woman angrily said and slammed the door in our faces."Oh, god. What happened to that poor child? That woman is so heartless." I whispered. I wanted to cry, my heartache inside just by thinking of the four years old boy. " Let's check room 320," Jayson said and tugged me to the stairs, and we climbed up and searched for room 320. When we found it, the tears I held burst out of my eyes when I saw a small figure leaning on the closed door.I rushed to him with Jayson behind me. I kneeled beside him and took out the picture in my pocket, and it was him. He is asleep. He looks dirty, with some bruises on his arm and face, and he only wearing a shirt that is too big for his small form, which has ripped everywhere. His tiny form is shaking a bit, maybe because of the cold cement floor and the less clothing he is wearing. Jayson kneeled on his other side, and I saw his eyes brimmed with tears whi

MARA"Gian, are you okay to sleep with us?" I asked after we finished our dinner. It's already past ten in the evening, and I can tell he wants to sleep badly because his eyes keep closing even though he forces them to open. But he didn't say anything. He stays in his seat, waiting for us."It is okay?" He murmured, but Jayson and I quickly bolted up from our seats and rushed to him when his head fell to the side. I was relieved when Jayson grabbed his shoulder, stopping his fall. "You're tired?" Jayson asked, and he nodded his head, eyes closed. I chuckled when he fell entirely asleep after a minute, leaning on his seat. This child looks adorable, but my heart hurts about his exhaustion. Maybe he doesn't sleep properly these past months. Just thinking about his hardship these past months brought tears to my eyes. Jayson gently scooped him up in his arm, and we climbed to our room. Jayson lay him in the middle of our bed whil
