After two days of just cleaning and taking care of Susie, I decided to get out of Harold’s house to start looking for a job. Just like what I said, I don’t want to be a burden to Harold and to hear awful things from him someday. I can sense that he will count all of the things that he was giving me once he started to realize it. And more because I am just using him for my revenge. Once he finds out, he’ll surely be enraged in anger.“Sweet Café, Miss! Grandma! Sweet Café!”And after a week of trying to find a job, I didn’t land any. It was hard because of the surname I have. And I can feel that my father has something to do with it. Especially when three companies rejected me all at once right after seeing my C.V. I’m sure that he did some trick to stop them from hiring me. I can’t believe that my own father would do that to me.So I decided to get a lower paying job, which is giving out flyers on the street. Just a temporary job so I can save money. And to not rely on Harold the whol
“How was your design?”I looked up at Harold when he looked at my tablet where I was doing the design for the company that I wanted to sign up for the bidding. As I showed it to Harold, he sat up beside me and took the tablet.“You’re pretty great,” he replied. “I’m sure you’ll win the bidding.”“Thanks! I’m confident with my design. I have two years experience, you know.”“Good luck for tomorrow,” he said.I nodded. After days of designing, it has been doing good. Harold was very supportive of me and we never argued since the day that he asked me to resign from giving flyers on the street.“Are you done?” he asked. I shook my head. “I haven’t done it yet.”He sighed and then stood up. “Right, good luck.”Hearing his cold voice, I looked up at him as he walked out of my bedroom. Instead of thinking why he was so cold towards me, I just shrugged and continued what I was doing. The next day, I was nervous when I entered the company. This company was the enemy of my father’s company b
I sighed as I entered Harold’s Villa. I was really devastated and I didn't know how to face my husband right now. He gave me this opportunity and now it all went to waste. When I woke up this morning I was so excited because I thought I would be able to show everyone my talent. I thought I could start a fresh and new life with my new company but it turned out bad. Susie ran towards me as soon as I entered the entrance. I fed her with dog food then I walked back to the living room. When I got there, I saw Harold sitting on the sofa while scrolling through his phone. He looked up at me. “Hey… what happened? Why do you look depressed?” His eyes looked so worried and unhappy upon seeing me.I sat down beside him and then sighed. “I wasn’t able to present my design…”His brow arched. “What do you mean?”“Jason and our Boss got mad at me because of it,” I said with my teary eyes. “Selina, why didn’t you do your best? I did my best to put you in that job and you ended up failing? I saw yo
Harold’s POV:I just got out of the shower when my phone rang. Just when I saw Dorian’s name flashed on the screen, I quickly tapped the answer button and then talked.“Yeah? What is it?” I asked.“Hey, bro! I think you need to get in here,” he said.“And why would I do that?” “Your wife is in danger. I heard Lilian asked someone to take her to a hotel and take nude photos of her.”“What? Are you sure about that?”“At first, I wasn’t sure. But when I saw her standing up drunk with that guy, I was very sure,” he said. “Come on! Get in here, I’ll send you the hotel. I followed them!”With that, I quickly turned off the call and cursed loudly. What the hell is wrong with that woman? She’s always out there making a problem that I always have to solve and it frustrates the hell out of me!Dorian sent me the hotel where that fucking guy took my wife and then I drove my way there. As soon as I saw Dorian in front of the door, I quickly kicked it with all of my strength, and the door knocked
Selina’s POV:I woke up with my head so heavy, I was so dizzy that I couldn’t open my eyes properly. But because I was thirsty, I forced myself to get up only to see Harold sitting on the couch next to my bed. He was busy scrolling through his iPad while sipping on a cup he was holding.“You’re awake?” he asked.I slowly moved to sit on the edge of the bed. And when I did, Harold spoke.“What were you doing at the bar last night?”“It doesn’t matter to you,” I replied while massaging my temple.“How come that it doesn't matter to me? You are my wife, I am your husband! Don’t you realize what happened to you because you went there?” Now he put down the cup on the small side table as well as the iPad.“What happened? I still got home safe!” I replied. “You got home safely because of me, Selina! Someone was about to rape you and I rescued you there,” he said in a gritted teeth.I was stunned. I didn’t remember what happened last night and how I got home. But I remembered that someone s
Third Person’s POV:After Selina stormed out of James’ office he sighed and shook his head before he sat back to his swivel chair. He was mad about that girl, he doesn’t really like her despite the fact that she has done a lot more achievements than Emma. James was about to start working again when his phone rang. After pressing the answer button, he put it on his ear.“Hello, who is this?”“Hello Mr. James Woodward! This is Margarette Scott from Brilliant Construction. We would like to inform you that the winning design from the bidding has been canceled due to some technical errors,” the woman from the other line said.His eyes widened. “What do you mean?”“We’re sorry, Mr. Woodward but someone informed us that the designer of the said work wasn’t the real designer but she just stole the work. We will conduct a further investigation about this matter—”“Who informed you about this?! That design was my daughter’s!”“I’m so sorry, Sir. But we cannot disclose any information about it.
Third POV:“BREAKING NEWS! James Woodward, the CEO and co-owner of Woodward Designs was accused of tormenting his daughter, Selina Woodward for two days. The photos showed that Selina was rushed to the hospital after being rescued due to dehydration… We tried to reach out for James Woodward but his side hasn’t released any statement regarding this matter—”James quickly turned off the television before the reporter could say further words. Their company has taken another hit because of the news today and it’s driving him insane! How did Selina run away from the Villa? Those bullshit securities! They didn’t even know that Selina escaped!“Sir, what was happening here? What does the reporter mean that you tormented Selina?” Gerald asked in confusion and shock. “Oh come on, Gerald! Do you really think that news was true? Selina was surely the one who’s behind this. She wanted to bring us down because she still thought that I stole her design! She’s always like this, you know that! Playi
I was so happy when I left the Villa to go home. Sir Cade hired me right away and he asked me for suggestions with the kitchen, bedroom and some parts of the Villa. I also showed him my sample designs that he immediately liked. He was amazed by how I was able to tell what he wanted to do with his Villa.On my way to my car, a new car parked beside mine. And I knew whose car it was. Of course, we have been together for a year! My brow arched upon seeing him. What is he doing here?As soon as he got out of his car, he saw me. Then he rushed towards my direction.“Selina!” He called.I wasn’t able to react at first but when he was finally in front of me, I stepped back. “What are you doing here?” he asked. “None of your business,” I replied. I wanted to ask the same thing but of course, I stopped myself from doing that.“It’s still my business, you’re my fiancee’s sister!” he said matter of factly.“Really? You have business with me? Come on, Gerald!” I rolled my eyes.“Anyway, you nee
