Chapter 17: Dilemma
(Catherine’s POV)
I saw the lights turned on in our apartment when I arrived. ‘Monique didn’t go to the agency today? It’s quite early’
As soon as I opened the door, I heard laughter echoing in the living room. I slowly closed the door and headed to where she was. There, I saw her watching a comedy film with a bowl of popcorn in her hands. “You didn’t go to work today?”
She looked at me and smiled. “Nope, I resigned.”
My brows furrowed when I heard her. I instantly sat near her and asked, “What do you mean you resigned? You left the agency?”
She turned off the TV and put down her popcorn. “*Sigh* Yeah, I asked my manager to sign a termination contract earlier this morning. I think it’s already signed by now.”
“Why? Your contract isn’t over yet and there are liquidated damages to pay. Why did you leave the agency anyway? Are you changing careers?”
“It’s not that I’m changing careers. You know how much I love modeling, b

(Catherine’s POV)“That’s all for today. Don’t forget our fieldwork tomorrow. I’m expecting everyone to be here early in the morning. Class dismissed.” I left the room and walked towards the teacher’s office.There are still some things to prepare for our fieldwork tomorrow. On the way to the office, my phone rang and saw that it was the principal who had called. “Hello, Mr. Principal?”“Yes, Catherine. Is your class done already?”“Yes sir. I’m currently walking back to the office. Is there something you want me to do sir?”“That’s good. Can you come to the office right now? There’s something I want to discuss with you.”“Okay, sir.” The call ended right after. ‘Why did the Principal call me? Is there something wrong?'The principal’s office is in the opposite direction from where the teacher&rs
Love Blooms At Second Chances Chapter 19: Field Work
(Catherine’s POV) “Okay everyone, let’s have our lunch break since it’s near lunch already. Remember to be back here before 1:30 in the afternoon, okay? You may go now.” Half a day has already passed since the time I saw President Lu in the parking area of the university. I don’t know how I managed to get on the bus after what President Lu had said. Fortunately, he didn’t approach me again when we reached the venue. He was just at the corner observing the class. I breathed a sigh of relief because of that. I don’t think I could continue this activity if he approached me again. When all of my students were already having their lunch, I glanced around to see if President Lu was there but he was nowhere to be found. It would be great if he had already gone back to his office. I can now focus on my job without feeling anxious. Feeling elated, I headed to the restaurant near our location to get something to eat. I’m not really picky when it
Love Blooms At Second Chances Chapter 20: Dinner
(Alexander’s POV) After our encounter in the parking lot, she finally agreed to have dinner with me. We left her car there and used my car instead. Fortunately, after that earlier episode, she finally managed to calm herself down. Silence is all that is heard on our way to the restaurant. I had already asked Secretary Lin to reserve a private room in the restaurant. When we arrived there, a few people were dining since it was already late in the evening. “Good evening President Lu. It’s a pleasure for us to have you here in our restaurant. Please follow me. I’ll lead you to your table.” The manager guided us to the second floor of the restaurant. This is where all the private rooms are located. I glanced at Catherine, who was silently following from behind. I stopped walking, which made the manager confused. “Is there something wrong President Lu?” Ignoring him, I turned around, which surprised Catherine. Her widened eyes tell how afra

(Monique’s POV)Earlier this morning, Jasmine called to tell me that she would be coming over-delivering some important news. It would be nice to have someone to have a chat with since I’m dying of boredom here.Catherine is, as usual, working at the university, while I don’t really have much interest right now in going out.Speaking of Catherine, she was acting strangely after she got home late last time. She came home late even if the only schedule she had at that time was her fieldwork. I’m sure something must have happened during that time. If not, why is she acting unusually?She looked tense and there were times that I caught her lost in a trance. This is so unlike her. I’m sure there’s something that’s bothering her, but I don’t want to annoy her just to feed up my curiosity. It’s best to wait until she speaks about it on her own accord.*Ding*Someone rang the doorbell. That must

(Michael’s POV) “Sir, I have already made a phone call to Ms. Yang and she agreed to come to the office tomorrow morning for the contract signing.” Director Chen explained when I called him over for a meeting. “That’s good. Do the contract signing immediately and make sure that the contract is very reasonable. Not too much or too less or else she will not sign it. I can just increase the benefits once she’s already signed up here at the company.” I know her very well. She will become suspicious if the contract states too many benefits. It’s not yet the right time for her to know that I’m the CEO of this company. “Excuse me, Sir Michael.” “Yes Director Chen, is there anything else?” “Sir, do you know Ms. Yang personally?” I raised my head and looked at him. “Why did you ask?” “Well, I’m just confused about why you were targeting KM Agency. But when you suddenly order to have Ms. Yang signed, I got a little bi

(Monique’s POV) “Welcome to Glory World Entertainment Ms. Monique Yang” Director Chen stood up and offered his hand. I happily accepted it and said my most heartfelt thanks. “Do you have something to do today, Ms. Yang? If none, would you like to have a tour of the company?” He offered, which I was delighted to hear. I was really curious about how Glory World Entertainment looks inside. I was only able to see the lobby and the 5th floor. And Glory World has more than 20 floors. “Yes, of course. I would love that Director Chen.” He took the contract in his hand and gestured for us to go out. “Let’s go, Ms. Yang.” When we were about to get to the elevator door, his phone suddenly rang. “Excuse me for a moment, Ms. Yang.” He walked a little bit further and answered the phone. That must be the CEO. He was very polite when he was talking and I keep hearing him say, sir. I waited at the corner and looked around just

(Catherine’s POV) “Cathy, hey! Cathy! Cathy!” Monique’s waving hands flashed in my eyes instantly. “Yes, sorry. What are you saying?” I didn’t notice that my thoughts drifted away. Caught up in a trance, I can’t concentrate on our conversation because the words left by President Lu keep on popping up. “Are you okay? You seem distracted. Is something bothering you? I’m free to listen.” Worry flashed in her small eyes. Her eyes blinked a couple of times while looking at me. Her slender white fingers covered my hands resting on the table, comforting me. I flashed a smile to reassure her that everything was fine. I don’t want to worry her about my current predicament, especially now that she’s having trouble with herself. Pinching her pale white hands, I smiled gently. “Don’t worry. It’s not that serious, I’ll tell you about it soon when I figure things out. By the way, you were talking about some big news. What is it?” Enthusiasm came bac
Love Blooms At Second Chances Chapter 25: Conditions
(Third Person’s POV) In a luxurious restaurant, a beautiful lady is silently sipping her tea while glancing at the scenery outside. It’s already spring and the flowers are slowly blossoming. The trees sway elegantly to the breeze of the wind, making the scenery harmonious to look at. This tranquillity was interrupted when a young handsome man took a seat in front, blocking the great view. The lady blinked her eyes twice and looked at the man sitting in front. “Oh, you’re here, President Lu.” The man smiled brightly at the lady sitting elegantly opposite him. “It was a surprise to receive a call from you Ms. Su. 2 weeks haven’t passed yet but you took the initiative to call. So, I’m guessing you have already made your decision.” Catherine reached out to her bag and took a file. Placed it in front of President Lu confidently. “I will marry you if you agree to the conditions written on that file.” Alexander took the file and carefully read each i
