ログインGina POVThe next Monday I arrived at Prime Entertainment at about the same time as Roland. A few people were still in the parking lot. Although we had arrived in two cars, we had turned to look at each other."Good morning." For a minute I had forgotten to be professional. I greeted him with a warm smile and undisguised fondness.Roland did not mind. He walked over to me and took my hand. "Good morning, dear," his voice was gentle. I wanted to pull away, but he did not allow me, so I could only lower my head, feeling shy."Good morning, sir," the other staff greeted him. Although I was not looking at anyone, I could tell that they were all looking at our hands.We walked like that into the lobby. More people noticed, but perhaps because the man was Roland, they did not dare to gossip. They just greeted him and pretended not to notice our hands.I followed him into his executive elevator to the top floor. I had never been so relieved to find out that his secretaries were not yet pres
Gina’s POV I let out a quiet breath the moment I stepped out of the bathroom the room was empty, Roland was gone. For some reason, relief washed over me instantly. At least… Mum did not see him here. I pressed my hand lightly against my chest, trying to calm my racing heart. Maybe I had overthought everything. Maybe she did not notice anything at all. I shook my head slightly and walked toward the closet. I needed to get dressed. Church. I had to go to church and get my head straight. I reached for a dress, trying to focus, but my mind kept drifting back to the morning. The kiss. The knock and the panic. My face grew warm. I could not believe i really forgot more was next door. Just then.. A knock sounded on the door, My heart jumped. “Mum?” I called instinctively. The door opened before I could say anything else. Mum stepped in, her expression calm, as usual. “I thought you might need help,” she said lightly. I blinked “Help?” “With your makeup,” she
Roland’s POV I had not planned to follow her, I told myself to stay where I was, I understood her mother was a Christian and held conservative ideas. I did not want her to have a bad impression of me, so I had stopped myself from taking the final step in the kitchen. But the moment she walked away… something in me refused. Before I could think it through, my feet had already moved. I reached her door just as she was about to close it. My hand came up, stopping it "Roland…” her voice was soft, barely above a whisper, only then did I realize what I had done. For a second, neither of us moved, I could leave “I should leave,” I told myself. But looking at her standing there, her eyes uncertain, her guard already shaking… I knew I would not. "I just want to hold you and sleep,” I said quietly. “Nothing else,” I added, not sure if I was convincing her or myself. She hesitated, I saw it clearly, the way her fingers tightened slightly on the door. The way her gaze flickered, as if s
Gina’s POV Roland and I got into the house together after he instructed his driver to leave. To my surprise, he had some pajamas in his car. After stepping inside, he paused, his eyes moving across the space. The lights were warm, the furniture was modern but not too bold; everything felt… calm. I was also looking around; after all, this was my first time stepping into the house after we bought it. "Welcome,” Mum said, her tone light, Roland nodded slightly. “Thank you for having me.” Mum gave a small smile, then turned to me. “Gina, show him around.” I blinked, I did not know the house well, but fortunately I had a good memory, so I quickly nodded. “Alright.” Roland glanced at me, then followed as I started walking. “This is the living room,” I said, gesturing lightly. “We haven’t fully arranged everything yet.” “It already looks good,” he replied; I looked at him “You think so?” "Yes,” he said simply. Mum walked behind us, her steps slow and relaxed, we moved from one space t
Gina’s POV “How often do you host these family gatherings?” I asked Roland as we stepped out of the house towards the garage. “Twice or three times a year,” he answered with a faint smile. I shook my head, wondering why they would go through such meaningless gatherings. I could tell that there was competition and hidden war everywhere. Zack had a proud look when he introduced his fiancée. It was like he was marrying her family background instead of the woman. “Should I have the driver send your car back?” Roland asked. I suddenly realized that I got a car as a welcoming gift. This wealthy family, they really acted differently. “Of course not, let’s use my car and your driver can take yours,” I said. If not that I did not want to look too eager, I would have taken it out for a spin immediately. “Okay,” Roland agreed. He comfortably walked over to the driver’s seat and opened the door for me. “Thank you,” I said as I got inside. Then he walked around, and I started the car.
Roland's POVGina had been so worried about meeting my family again. I knew it was because of Grandfather's warning the last time. I was also worried because I was not sure why Grandfather would ask her to join, but I acted calm, not wanting to scare her.Fortunately, my family welcomed her well, although Grandfather's brother's side of the family tried to stir trouble but failed.I left Gina alone to speak with my father. When I returned to the room, I met Gina lying on the bed, lost in thought."A penny for your thoughts!" I asked.Gina snapped out of it and looked at me. "The middle-aged woman and lady from earlier, who are they?" she asked. Her voice was filled with concern."Well, that is my dad's cousin's second wife and daughter," I replied.Gina blinked, clearly confused."My great-grandfather had two sons, my grandfather and his brother. The two were not born by the same mother. It was an arranged marriage. I heard my great-grandfather did not like his wife and kept a mistres
Gina's pov I do know why but once Roland let go of his hold I felt my heart dropped. He had looked like he would kiss me a moment before that but once I mentioned that date he was a different person. 'did he like the lady that much?' I wonder. I had witnessed the date myself but somehow I pra
