FAZER LOGINBella’s POVI couldn’t wait for my alarm clock to beep before I started preparing for my new job. My excitement was overflowing. Getting this job felt like a surprise package straight from heaven—like heaven had finally heard my quiet, desperate prayers. I had wanted this position for so long. I had dreamed about walking into that company like I truly belonged there, head held high, confidence radiating from every step.I couldn’t stop smiling.Even now, it still felt unreal, like a beautiful dream I was scared to wake up from. I remembered that day clearly—the interview. I had been so nervous, my voice slightly shaking, my thoughts scattered all over the place. I was sure I had messed it up completely. So I still couldn’t understand what made them choose me out of all the other candidates. Maybe it was luck. Maybe it was grace. Maybe it was something I didn’t even see in myself. But none of that mattered now. All that mattered was that I got the job. And that was enough to make my he
Leo’s POVI couldn’t believe my mother. She wanted me to me marry that bitch Nova. The mere thought made my stomach twist, but I couldn’t stand by and watch her dying in that hospital bed.Come on, Leo, it’s just a contract marriage. Nothing attached to it, one voice inside me spoke. I should marry Nova. I held my mother’s hand and forced a smile, as if I were entering this contract marriage willingly. If I showed what I was really feeling right now about this contract marriage with Nova, one piece of me would tear apart. But I didn’t have to show it. I just had to pretend that it was all good.“Mom, I will do as you said. But once the marriage is done, I will send you pictures and videos for proof. You have to promise me that you will allow the doctor to operate on you and no more excuses,” I finally said after a while of processing her words. She was all I had, and I couldn’t afford to lose her or stand by and let anything happen to her. This was a contract marriage. I wouldn’t have
Leo’s POVI was filled with worry as I sat beside my mother. I just wished she would blink her eyes open, but all I could hear was the beeping of the machines. I needed to see the doctor to find out what should be done to get her well. I was sick and tired of seeing her in this state. Worry crept over me as I stepped out of her ward and met Jones standing by the side of the door. He looked sad. He approached me as soon as I came out.“How is Madam, sir? Has she opened her eyes?” he asked, worry etched across his face. I thought maybe he might know what my mother was suffering from. I just hoped it wasn’t something critical.“Jones, did you discuss with the doctor about what’s happening to my mother?” I asked him. I feared it would not be something serious because right now I wouldn’t forgive myself if anything happened to her. She was the only family I had left.“Yes, sir. The doctor said Madam is suffering from a tumor, but it’s not too advanced. He said she needs to undergo surgery
Bella’s POVI knew for sure that I was not going to get the job. I had messed up big time. Even after practicing everything I was going to say, I still found myself in the interview completely frozen. My brain went blank the moment fear curled tightly inside my chest. I just sat there, staring at the interviewers as they waited for my response, but my mouth wouldn’t cooperate. My lips were quivering, and no words would come out. The memory made my stomach twist with embarrassment. I wished I could forget the whole thing. I couldn’t believe what I had done to myself in that moment. Right now, I had lost all hope for the job.Alex smiled at me the moment I came out of the building, but I was clearly disappointed in myself. I tried to force a smile, but I think he noticed I wasn’t happy. That was why he had brought me here. Now we were sitting together in the garden. The soft breeze felt comforting against my skin, but I couldn’t tell if it was soothing me or simply reminding me that I h
Leo’s POVOh no. Bella didn’t answer the question well at all. Why was she looking so lost and dumbstruck at the interviewer like that? I sat in my private office, watching the live feed of the interview on my monitor. She stood there frozen, her beautiful eyes wide with panic, her lips slightly parted but no words coming out. The interviewer repeated the question once, twice, and still nothing. She didn’t even attempt a proper response. It was painful to watch, yet something about her vulnerability pulled at me even more.I knew the team would never consider her. The panel was strict; they only wanted the sharpest, most confident candidates with flawless answers and impressive experience. But I didn’t care what they thought. As the CEO of this company, I would employ her no matter what. She was going to be my secretary—my personal secretary. The thought alone sent a rush of satisfaction through me. I would be so incredibly happy if she was working here every single day, right by my s
Bella’s POVThe alarm clock buzzed loudly beside my ear. I muttered softly and slapped it hard to stop the noise from disturbing my beautiful sleep. For a few seconds, I wanted to close my eyes again, but then it hit me—I had an interview today at Solara Group. A sophisticated company like that was not something I could afford to miss.The morning came faster than I expected. It felt like I had only closed my eyes for a few minutes when the alarm rang again. I quickly dragged myself out of bed, my heart beating so fast it was as if I was already late for the interview.“Today is the Solara Group interview… today is the Solara Group interview…” I kept reminding myself, but my heart refused to calm down. I hadn’t even gotten there yet, yet my chest was pounding like I had run a marathon.I stood in the bathroom for a while, leaning against the wall, trying to calm myself down.“This is real, Bella… this is really happening,” I muttered to myself.Hearing my own voice made me breathe a l
