Mag-log inChapter 43 MILA’S POV “The friend you texted me to meet is Dawson Briggs?” Rhea questioned with her jaws sitting on the floor. Her gaze flipped simultaneously from me to Kent, to Dawson, and circled right back to Kurt. “You knew him?” Even Kurt sounded confused. My head is literally spinning right now. These people are not asking the right questions. “This is the girl you flew on a date to Donna’s restaurant?” I heard that and was back to a kingdom called ‘the heck’.“Rhea, please, explain what’s going on?” I pleaded my request as softly as I could to contradict the tension of the situation. I’m certain everybody needs the breakdown. Everyone, but Sophia. I don’t even know what she’s still doing here. “Kurt, meet my friend, Mila. Mila, meet my boss, Kurt. And the one over there,” she paused and pointed at the dude seated on a sofa. “We met once and it wasn’t a friendly one.” She sneered at him. “You went on a date with him? I thought you said you went out for work?” Kent, wh
Chapter 42 MILA’S POV I had the worst day when Sophia coupled with my husband’s face were the two things I started my day with. What’s to say about today that the first face I’d see after waking up just had to belong to this witch! Talking about she’s here to see my husband. In case I haven’t been telling her, I told her in capital letters to stay away from my husband’s house and then slammed the door politely in her face. She can do whatever she wants with that man anywhere but around my premises. I live in this house and her shenanigans with my husband will not be tolerated. I overheard her calling to report me, saying she’s considering pressing charges over the allergy incident. She should press her charges, take it to court even and let us see who is going to walk out in shame. I cancelled all of my plans for today and centred them on Dawson. Sophia is going over to meet him at the office, and I intend to make sure I spend the day she jinxed with her. It was around noon b
Chapter 41DAWSON’S POV Camila just might be the funniest person I’ve ever seen. I’m still unable to forget the stunt she pulled back in my office last night before she left. I laughed and I rarely do that. She’s surely something. Too bad she’s who she is. I’m starting to enjoy her, but she ultimately has to go. It was the deal and the demand; she needs to go somehow. I arrived at work earlier than usual, and it’s shocking how I still met Candy clocked in already. When did she wake up to arrive this early? It’s freaking six in the morning. It was too late by the time I finished up in the office. It was around 5am this morning, there’s no sleep I could let myself get anymore. I just cleared up, went to freshen up, and thought I’d resume early for work. I was designing the commencement plan for our launch in Luxembourg; I promised the Wajes’ representative to present this to her this new week. This new week is also when the newly appointed CEO for the branch where my brother prev
Chapter 40 MILA’S POV“Wow!” I mouthed, crashing into my bed. Today had gone differently than I was expecting it to. Kent turned it all around, and that was the ultimate shocker. I was ready to retire back home because I was officially too pissed to go on, however, who would’ve thought I’d end the day loving every bit of it. We spent most of our time at the amusement park, trying out rides, getting on a water slide, and engaging in almost all the interesting activities we came upon. It was ready late by the time we arrived at the game centre, and after winning our first game, we decided it was time to go home. He dropped me off a few minutes ago to go prepare for his date that’s happening in less than two hours, and I’m here grateful to him for fixing my mood. My phone has been on airplane mode since; I was supposed to turn it off since, and call Rhea to inform her that I’d be visiting. I forgot, and if Kent hadn’t texted on my behalf, we wouldn’t have figured out that she’s not
Chapter 39 MILA’S POV Sometimes I make questionable decisions and that’s something I need to correct about myself. Steven was on his own, it was I who decided yes—I’m going to check on a weirdo even after he’s supposed to stay cut off for good. Well, after today, he already established himself as a company that’s not meant to be kept. “Did he threaten you with a knife or said something scary?” Kent was still hung to the way I dashed out of the room and out of the house. I just wanted to be as far away as I can possibly get away from him. “You know I thought he was like the normal one out of them all, but turns out his own creepiness is just as sinister. He’s acting like he was obsessed with me!” I sighed and shook my head. That man is not right in the head. He knows I’m married to his brother and still thought to say those things to me. They’re all the same, not a single one is better than the other. That family is crawling with creep-lords and monsters with the face of an an
Chapter 38 MILA’S POV I’m hoping to the universe that today isn’t going to be anything like yesterday. I couldn’t honour the promise I made Steven about my visit. I just left the dinner, came straight home and went into my room to call it a night. And I refuse to get out of bed as early as it still is this morning because I didn’t want the devil’s face to be the first I’d see today. He’s pissing me off so bad I wish I could kill him for a minute or two and then bring him back to life, which totally excuses me from being a bad person. Michael has been disturbing my cell since I woke up. It was him who even woke me up. He wouldn’t stop calling when he realized I wasn’t going to pick; I had to turn on airplane mode to escape the early morning harassment. If I’d taken that call and listened to the bullshit he has to yap, it would’ve jinxed my day and that is something I’m desperately trying to avoid. Today is Sunday. I’m going to visit Steven, go shopping with Rhea, and ma
