Angela.

I throw a "don't tell him" look at Vanessa and she nodded, going ahead to openly demonstrate zipping her mouth shut.

I grunt.

"I definitely heard someone saying they want a baby.."he drawled, moving inside.

Nervousness cuts through my spines as I chuckle, giving Vanessa a pleading look.

"I...was on a call?" Her head tug to the side before she looks at me.

I squint my eyes, shaking my head.

That was definitely not a good lie.

When i saw she couldn't be of much help, I sigh then look at him.

"Fine, I was asking her if you'd like a baby.." i blurt before shrinking my face away in disgrace.

He spits out the water in his mouth.

"Wha-at?"

"Didn't even remember such exists."

I sighed. "Yeah? I was only asking and no, I don't want one. I am always this curious." I gulped hard before standing up and walking out awkwardly.

Shit, the abrupt heat in there was insane.

When I settled in for the night, my cellphone dings with a message from barrister - he has just sent me the address.

  • HER EMERGENCY GROOM    Puzzled.

    I step out of the company, my phone held in place on my left ear by my right hand as I use the other to rummage through my bag looking for my card or any cash to take a cab."Good evening, ma'am." A voice slid into my ears like a wisp of air and I look up to see the driver I had turned down."What are you doing here?" The words roll out of my mouth slowly."I got the address from Mr Winslow, he said I should come pick you up," he replied.I nod and got inside the car: that help which I had forsaken, now came in handy.In no time, we were home, with me having left thirty-three calls for uncle.God damn it, why isn't he picking up?I rush down from the car to walk inside the house—I heard the door at the driver's side open and he rushed out in awareness of the disaster that was just about to play out.I didn't know what I was doing until headlights from cars shone in my eyes, almost sending me blind— series of hon

    Angela..."Lunch?" Janice pops up during break."Come on, I doubt if the heiress would eat such cheap lunch they're offering in the cafeteria..." Billie dismissed.My eyes glints, "just like back in school?" I whisper to Janice snd she gave me a nod."I'd like to," I say and dash out before them."You don't even know where it is.." Janice came after me.My team members and I walk to the cafeteria and I wonder why other workers wouldn't stop staring at me and whispering to themselves.Janice suddenly became protective when she holds my hand."How can she come to work with that clueless face, eeiii.""Our pay would get delayed because of this but she looks okay.""What do you think? she turned the company into her personal battle ground without minding for others..."Those were the talks that welcomed me in the cafeteria along with a waft of fresh food.I pretend not to hear and

    MIGUEL...In the ride to drop her off at the office, I kept stealing glances at her but she wouldn't even look at me for once.This is all Rachael's faults, if she hasn't released such ridiculous post, we...I heave out a sigh when I see i was just blame dumping. Her phone dings in her hand, and i see her peep at it but ignore the message.I open my mouth to ask why, but the car pulled to an halt."Thanks for the ride, Pierre," she uttered perfunctorily."Always here for you, Mrs Winslow," Pierre replied and I shot him a glare."And, you have a good meal at dinner," the corner of her lips lift in a sneer before she alights from the car.The tyres squealed as Pierre moves immediately and I grit my teeth at him."Was I supposed to drive the car inside the company, boss?""What do you mean by you're always here for her?" I question instead."...as her husband's worker, i should

    His eyebrows pull up in surprise, a pant coming out of his lips."Is this still about the previous matter? I thought I already apologized?"I chuckle hysterically, finding him preposterous: "Really? Woah, everything must be a piece of cake to you then." He pulls the bridge of his nose and nods, "I'll just keep apologizing then""Why bother doing something that's going to be fruitless?" "I..will still keep giving it a trial." He deadpanned.My eyes trail down to his bare chest and I quickly look away, my eyes finally settling on the sight before me.My eyes glints and I find my feet moving into the space, and I feel him retreating behind me."Ah," a delighted chuckle left my lips."Is...this an heaven of alcohol?" I stood in the middle and stare around at the shelves.The room is white walled, with touches of black on it. The chandelier hangs down the ceiling, casting a soft glow on the r

    Angela.."Here comes the one who set the world ablaze yesterday and still manage to have such...a calm face," Vanessa mouthed when I entered the kitchen."I doubt if that would be enough to burn everything tho." I sigh."You look like you could devour a whole building, I'm making salmon and chicken wings, would be ready in four." She clicks her tongue.I move to the fridge and take out a loaf of bread."I'll be dead by then," I mumble before going to sit on the stool."You seem not to like them juices.." she pointed out.I nod, "they aren't good for my health." I stuff a slice of bread in my mouth."But alcohol is good for it?" She lowers her voice."Shhshhhittt..." I look around, afraid that someone would hear her."I..I don't drink alcohol, why would I?" I scratch my neck—anxious, swallowing the bread in my mouth."You once asked for it, have you forgotten? That night?" My lash

  • HER EMERGENCY GROOM    Whose fault?

    I open my mouth to tell a response at him but just slip my hands in my pockets, tired of arguing with someone like him."When the Prime Minister said to declare a state of emergency on the State's state and rate of unemployment, I thought he was being overboard but now I see," the man pass us a sympathetic look and I laugh, pointing at myself."Me? No, you've got it wrong. I've been here with my colleagues to buy some choco—" i trail off as he cut me off."Here, have a look," he points to the computer Infront of him where he was behind the counter and step away. The guy step to it and I did also. He fast-forward the clip till it get to the scene.The light clearly turned to red and then he came rushing."Who is the brainless one now?" I smirk.He strike a finger on his lips before shrugging,"I see it happens that way" and in the most amusing way, he simply strides out and I chuckled like crazy."He is such

    Janice. . Tears fill my eyes from watching Angela's press conference online. I was standing by the roadside after going to grab a coffee across the office, waiting for the light to turn red before crossing. I'm glad she is finally getting out of her shells but couldn't wait to meet her and ask for the address of that scumbag of a step brother! But why didn't she revealed why he decided to do such? "Wait, wasn't her mother forcing her to get married? Oh, that darn woman definitely knew it all along! She sent her son to marry her so he could be in control of her shares maybe? Oh what a family!" I gritted out. I pocket my phone, deciding to get to the office first before giving her a call so we could fix a time to meet today. The light turned red and I step on the road, looking sideways on pure instincts when my eyes detects a car charging forward at high speed. My mouth opened and a scream tore my lips. The caddy box in my hand hit the ground and i jumped back, merely escapin

    Mom's eyes flicker, a weight of shock reflecting in them.Her jaw tightened, but then Lena whisper something to her and that brought back her unnerving confidence."How true is that?!""We saw the pre-wedding pictures and photos of Mr Daniel and you when you went on different trips,""If it was your intention to wed Mr Winslow all along, why did he have to sit at the audience area before going up the altar?" The reporters ask and my eyes dulled for a moment.Our trips?The pictures we took was only the fun of it, just like it would have been if I had gone there with a brother.A grin broke out of my lips, and everywhere went silent.I guess Miguel's experience sure comes in handy. He has made me list out every objects, places and words of existence between Daniel — He gave me possible questions on them and how to answer."Oh?" I chuckle into the microphone."The trips were only to get mother disillusioned that our ship was moving.""That's Mr Daniel right there, you can ask him how o

    Angela...I was going to pull the conference off on my own but he had came to knock my door that night and begged for a five minutes talk."He is always saying let's talk! Could he be a turkey that is talkie freak?" My second grunts.I open the door and he nod with a "thanks.""I know I've let you down but still,""You didn't disappoint me, for your information," I corrected and he nods with a long sigh."I know you want to go to the conference alone but can you take me? I'll just stay by your side without saying a word..""I didn't know you had the bodyguard trait in you, I thought you were into business?"I strained my eyes at him."Angela, please can you stop interrupting?" He says with an open palm as if begging for alms."I do have an information I am willing to share only if you agree to take me?"I stare at him for some minutes before saying with a void face."No,""You..you need me. You haven't spoken at a conference before, have you?"He made a point. "Fine. You absolutely c
