last update Dernière mise à jour: 2025-03-22 03:42:09

It has been three weeks since my suspension, and I was spending most of the time, curled up in my bed, eyes glued to my laptop screen, as I scrolled through social media.

I stocked up on snacks and settled in for a marathon session of scrolling and reacting to funny videos of cats, trendy outfits and celebrity gossip.

I was still bored! I guess stalking celebrities has no fun in it.

I had just reacted to a random post, when a familiar face popped up on my screen- mine. It caught me off guard, I widened my eyes as I read through the post. The account user had just published an article, where I had admitted to the assault on video. I regretted reading through the comment section, with people accusing me of being a monster and a desperate maniac.

I consoled myself with the fact that it was just an online drama and nothing more. “Can't they just move on?” I muttered to myself.

“It's been three weeks for crying out loud”

  • Love Amidst Lies   Chapter 20

    Nora's POV ******I let out a slow agonized groan as I struggled to clean up my room. “This is harder than I thought” I muttered as I lazily tried to organize my closet. After 20 slow minutes, I gave up again, the strength just wasn't there. I laid on my bed with different thoughts taking turns in my head, I was a shadow of my past self.Not that I wanted to be sad, I just didn't know the best way to deal with the situation, the shame? The disappointment, mockery and of course the betrayal. I had tried to shut myself up from the world by deactivating all my social media accounts but I can't survive without Instagram, how on earth will I be able to keep tabs on my favorite celebrities? My thoughts drifted to Lexi, my best friend who hasn't contacted me in the past weeks. Last time we spoke, she was on about how busy her job keeps her and how much she needed to do for her father. But I'm no fool, she's avoiding me because of her family's reputation. The news must've gone round th

  • Love Amidst Lies   Chapter 19

    Nora's POV I stormed into the conference room, raging with anger. All eyes turned to me, as the room grew quiet.One of the seated men spoke up “Miss Nora, glad to see…”“Shut the fuck up!” I screamed, interrupting him.I walked to the center to get a closer look at their faces. “I see the entire board is present,” I scoffed and prayed for my tears not to fall. “I am getting fired, correct?” I said calmly, speaking to no one in particular. A man seated at the far end spoke up, I'm guessing the most senior person in the room “A lot has…” I raised my hand, silencing him. I didn't care to know whether I was being disrespectful, I had every right to be rude. They betrayed me.I smiled sadly. “ I gave this company my whole life after my mother passed away.” I paused and let out a bitter smile“You all have forgotten that I was once the top deal closer of this company, not once did I receive the award,but twice!.” I held my finger at their faces. I continued “The company grew rapidly,

    Michael's POV *****I woke up with a slight headache on the couch in my living room wondering how I ended up there. I yawned loudly and stood up to stretch, still wearing my outfit from the previous night.My gaze fell on Alex who was snoring peacefully at the far end of the couch, he must have overslept. I tried to recall the time we had left the bar the night before, but my memory was hazy.Shrugging it off, I focused on getting to work on time. Punctuality was my top priority.With my headache intensifying with each passing moment, I slowly made my way to where Alex was sleeping and shook him awake, he sprang up immediately as if he had only been resting his head.“Good morning sir” He said standing up to stretch. “I'll go get ready for work.” He said and proceeded to the door. I yawned again, trying to shake off the feelings of fatigue. How much had I drunk the night before?While getting dressed for work, I felt tired and exhausted at the same time, it was odd that I had a fuzz

    I’m Gabrielle, gab for short.” The other girl flashed her even white teeth, and made a 360 turn. Who asked her to?“Yes?” Alex frowned.“Would you mind, if we join you?”Alex looked around, checking for a vacant table. He cleared his throat and pointed to one. “There are still a lot of vacant tables around.”Both girls flushed and then giggled, all the time eyeing at me.“Actually, um… we just wanted to introduce ourselves.” The one called rose, spoke upthere was no response or nudge from either of us.“Um…. we’re wondering if you could hang out with us later. Go to the mall, or do fun stuffs or something.”“We’re very busy girls. We have a lot of work to do. We don’t have the time for that.” I heard Alex rejecting their offer lightly“That’s soo boring. Whatever” The girls stormed out furiously.When the girls left, I was back to my worried state. I was running out of time. The fact that my grandfather intends to act as a matchmaker scared and annoyed me at the same time. I wasn't i

    Michael's POV I settled into my lounge, dressed in a white robe and stared directly at the serene mini beach beyond my window. The sounds of gentle waves crashing against the shore was perfect for my afternoon relaxation. I was passively sipping a cold juice as I tried to relax my mind.I had cancelled all my appointments and meetings for the day, they could wait. I needed to get my acts together, coupled with the fact that I was running out of time. I needed to clear my head.After a 30-minute respite, I retreated to my bathroom for a refreshing afternoon bath, after which I headed downstairs for lunch. I was going to wait for Alex to join me for lunch. He had called an hour ago. It's been an hour, 30 minutes already and no sign of him. I realized he was running late, annoyed, so I decided to dine alone. Hours passed, and Alex finally showed up armed with all kinds of excuses. I waved at him to indicate I was not ready to hear them, all I wanted to hear was the information he had
