2025-05-26 20:05:02Noreen's POV
In gritted teeth, I felt humiliation wash over me as hotel staff helped me up from my embarrassing fall on the stairs.
They all tried to hide their mirth but their eyes showed how they found my predicament funny!
Angrily, I shoved the hands helping me away and cried out in frustration.
"Don't touch me. How dare you touch me."
I was livid at the indignity Lucas Sanders put me through.
How dare he humiliate me like this? I am Noreen Jacobs. People in the upper class tremble at the mention of my name.

Oliver POVThere was urgency in my movement when I shut the engine of my car and stared at our apartment building.Then, I opened the sun visor overhead to check my face on the vanity mirror, making sure that I looked my best. When I was satisfied, I opened the car door, bent a little to pull out the bouquet of roses I ordered earlier, and walked toward the building. I was in high spirits. I tried to slow down, but excitement bubbled up inside me at the thought that Veronica would be surprised to see me home so early. She was not expecting me back so soon, but right after my talk with Mia, I felt like I could not wait to see Veronica again. I missed her.The longing seemed to stretch when I had to wait for the elevator to go down along with several residents. Some kept eyeing my roses, and I stood tall and proud because this was for the woman who had become such an important part of my life. I can’t believe how it happened. I used to ignore her presence. I would have continue
Goodbye Jerk, Hello Mr. Perfect? Chapter 162. Not Yet Too Late
Veronica POvI bit my lip to keep the anguished sob at bay, holding fiercely on my moral fortitude to tide me over. I wanted to jump from my seat and bolt to the entrance because I didn't feel like I was ready for this meeting. I can't confront my father right now. Not when my emotions are unstable and I might say things I would regret later. But my feet are stuck. Ironically, my knees do not have any strength left. I couldn't move while my father pinned me with his gaze. Don't get me wrong, my father never laid his hands on me. It was his wife and my brother. But he never said anything to stop them, but his silence made him complicit in their cruelty. It was always work, office, house. He was always so busy with his work that you can count on one finger how many times I saw him in the past.“How are you, my daughter? The words were stuck in my throat.I looked at him helplessly. It seemed he understood what was happening to me because the next instant, I was already enfo
Goodbye Jerk, Hello Mr. Perfect? Chapter 161. Hello, My Daughter
Veronica POV“Your father wants to talk to you.”“I know.” I nodded slowly after we were seated in a cozy booth away from the other customers. Our location also offers a little privacy, but it has a good view of the rest of the coffee shop. “He was worried that you wouldn’t pick up your phone, and then it went dead.” He explained. “Can’t he take a hint? It only meant that I did not want to talk to him. He can’t offer me anything that would ease his nagging conscience. That was all on him.” I snarled as everything that had happened that afternoon came rushing back to my head. Then, I remembered who I was talking to. I smiled apologetically to Red. “I am sorry. I did not mean to take my frustrations out on you.”He nodded at the service crew when he came to take our order.While placing our orders, I began to study Red. He seemed like a good person. It was hard to believe that someone like him could work for my ev*l father and his equally ev*l son. The waiter left, and we were su
Goodbye Jerk, Hello Mr. Perfect? Chapter 160. Chance Encounter?
Veronica POVThe thing with sitting silently while watching someone you had begun to depend on in the past days kiss another felt like you had been struck by lightning. I could not move, nor could I think straight. H*ll I could not even feel anything. Just this vacuum. What do I know about Oliver Manns?He said he wanted to date me and had shown me a tender side of him that I had not experienced for a long while. But what if all he felt for you was pity?Because come to think of it, what is there to like about me?My own family did not even like me. My biological mother denied me my right to know all about her. Why?Why do all the people I seemed to care about do not care for me?Maybe they did, but not as much as I cared for them. The realization that Oliver Manns belonged to someone else did not surprise me anymore. At least, I had been given an opportunity to be with him.Even if it was brief, I appreciated the feeling of being taken care of.Now, I had to return him to his
