38. Contending With My Thoughts
We were able to find a resort with good standards after asking around. If anything, the people of Mexico weren’t bad at all. They were willing to help and held warm, welcoming hearts. Liam and I managed to get separate rooms this time. Since this was a bigger resort, the rooms were more voluminous.
A sincere part of me was grateful at the fact that we were now in separate room. This meant privacy to a certain extent and less instances that could lead to arguments. As I retired to bed for the night, I thought of the compromise and the kiss before that. It was like this billionaire had the ability to take my breath with a kiss.
And it made me afraid in a million folds.
Whatever incidence I witnessed at the hospital today, changed my perception about my celebrity image. Before I had thought of it to be a burden, because my every move was being watched. But now, it felt like more of a responsibility.
It was all thanks to Boss Liam, my perspective was c

Still on a spot, not moving at all and a little bit unsure to do. My feet were on the dry sand with nervousness. The dancers had already begun to parade, moving to the beat. It was not until I heard,“Cut!” that I came to my senses.I wiped the little sweat that was threatening to ruin my makeup. I could have sworn, everything froze that moment.“Miss Nikki, do you need something?” The director asked. I had expected to be shouted and yelled on, just like the first day at Pink Moda. But it was when I realized things were different now, I cheekily smiled. A celebrity model was an important guest that was the reason why.“Yes, some water please.” I let out, pretending to be burning inside. Someone immediately rushed to give me what I requested for. I sipped from it, with my eyes searching for Liam, through the sea of eyes, that were currently staring at the shoot.Liam seemed to be busy with the females around him. I watched with fury, as he whi

“Listen to your heart, child. At times it’s your inner voice you should embrace not your instincts on what is wrong or right.”My head couldn’t get rid of the diviner’s words no matter how hard I tried. It came spiraling in my head even without me trying. Ever since that magical moment with her, I had a problem trying to forget her words.I had to deal with remembering her words and Liam’s little gift the day before. I couldn’t bring myself to get rid of the anklet he gifted me. Instead, with a pouty face, I looked at the cute little thing from time to time.“Here is my gift to you, red. Traditionally, it is said to keep one safe. I don’t want you getting in trouble with cops again.”I laughed wondering what the hell that meant. Was this some kind of spiritual asset to keep me safe? If it was, that was thoughtful of him. His gesture was sweet, leaving me with so much curiosity and wonder.My thoughts contained this, even when I washed myself

Liam’s PovI looked on phone to see the tenth missed call from Jackson. Slamming it on the table with anger, I continued with work immediately. It was insane how we fought so much as adults these days. Things had been more different when we were children.It had just been a lot different.There was a time Jackson had broken father’s treasured ceramic. I remembered him instantly crying on the spot, in fear of what father was going to do him. I comforted him, telling him not to cry.When I heard father’s footsteps approaching, I instructed him to run and hide, while I stood directly in front of the scene, pretending to be the one that got it broken. Father had taught me a lesson, locking me up with no food at all.We had been so bonded that I’d rather have borne all that, than for him to go through it. Jackson was the silent kid as a child. He was feeble minded and

A loud applause erupted the conference room of Pink Moda. Smiles were written on their faces. From the musical videos from each of the models, it was evident that it gave an overwhelming feeling to the employees of Pink Moda.“Congratulations, Miss Nikki!”“Congratulations, Boss Liam!” Everyone called out, repeating the same words to us both. Somehow, they liked the musical in Mexico. One by one, they had watched each model’s performance. And, in a way, they decided mine was the best. I also admired it too.Yet, that left me surprised because I didn’t even attend the rehearsals at all. But in a little part of my head, I knew that after the incidence at the hospital with Liam, I swore to give my career all amounts of seriousness. It wasn’t a plaything and meant so much to my fans out there.The board of bosses stepped forward to congratulate Leah, Jojo, myself and the last model that went with the youngest boss. I could see Jojo practically fuming t

“Sugar plum.” he called out. My heart softened a bit at his voice. I admired the way that nick name rolled off his tongue. I also admired his angelic face, his presence, the fact that he helped me numerous times. I wished to thank him for everything presently.For making me feel like I was more when people thought I had nothing. It meant so much to me. And, I really wanted to.But I needed to listen to what he had to say.“I’m sorry, sugar plum.” he started out, with a lost look on his features. His face held a sober look, making me wonder what was wrong. My brows cringed immediately, that instant at what was happening.Why was he apologizing for nothing? I certainly don’t remember him annoying or pissing me off, so why was he apologizing?“I don’t understand. Why would you be? I’m the one who should be sorry. I missed the date that day not you.” I constructed out, telling him.I hadn’t even told him the reason why I missed the date. An

“I’m sorry.” he added, with an apologetic expression written all over his features. His brown orb eyes didn’t even flinch for a minute. And, that alone made me want to yell at myself for being stupid.The instant he mentioned those words, his hands untangled from my shoulders. A gust of wind from the window, rushed past me from the window. It slapped my face, bringing me to reality.I couldn’t bring myself to comprehend whatever Jackson had just uttered. It was something unexpected.So unruly and hurtful. I would never had expected something like this from anyone, especially the fact that it was Jackson. It made me want to cry. Gawd, it did make me want to cry.But the thing was, I didn’t know why I wanted to. My feelings made me really confused these days.

Jackson’s PovImmediately Eleanor walked out, I felt a part of my heart pang in guilt.It wasn’t for loving her. Whatever I had was never love. When I met her at the elevator, I wanted to be friends with her because she was such a beauty.The kiss confession at her house, had been just a test. I needed to know if she was really in a relationship with my elder brother, because she seemed to hate the rich so much.The rooftop incidence was because she told me she wasn’t in real relationship with Liam.

The day after that day, I received a phone call around 6am. Wondering who the caller was, I sleepily reached for the phone. A migraine from last night’s drinking hit my head, making me groan out.“Eleanor,” A raspy and somewhat silent voice called out. My brows wriggled in confusion, the minute I recognized the voice.“Margaret,” I uttered. My mind drifted to a lot of things as I wondered what exactly was the problem was. She didn’t reply abruptly.
