LOGINFollowing a challenging period of rejection and divorce during her early marriage, Hazel faced numerous obstacles while taking care of her younger twin siblings, Daisy and Zayn. However, her determination led her to secure her dream job, prompting her to relocate to a different city in search of a fresh start and the potential for lasting love. Yet, her plans were swiftly overturned when she discovered that her new boss happened to be her ex-husband. The man who had callously rejected her with no explanation was unbelievably the one who offered her a position, fully aware of her identity from the start. Necessity compelled her to accept the job; for it was his financial support that she depended on for survival. Now, she found herself tangled in a complicated web - contending with his new girlfriend, a coworker who harbored affection for her, and a ruthless rival of her ex-husband who would stop at nothing to lure her away. Harnessing resilience and fortitude, could she navigate these challenges without completely losing her sanity?
View MoreHAZEL: Just as Michael had promised, he brought me a change of clothes. I was indeed grateful and got changed immediately. Luca was out of the office and so, I didn't get any funny looks. I heard the door opening and closing but didn't bother to look up. I pretended to be busy with some files but in reality, I was just staring at an empty screen. "Report." I heard him saying. I sighed and picked up a file I had gotten from other departments. I walked steadily to his table and dropped the file. I looked somewhere else while he went through the file. "This is utter rubbish!" He exclaimed and threw the file away, startling me in the process. The papers inside the file were scattered all over the office. "Why would you accept reports like this? Even if they're all dumb enough to send this, shouldn't you take a look at it before bringing it to me or are you dumb too?" He was indirectly insulting me but I wasn't going to give him a reaction. "I'm sorry, sir. It won't happen again." I
AUTHOR'S POV: The morning sun caused Hazel to shift in her bed. She couldn't sleep all night because of the abdominal pains she felt. Opening her eyes, her eyes landed on her alarm clock. She found out it was past eight. "Oh my God!!" She yelled as she sprang out of bed. This caused intense pain in her lower abdomen but she didn't care. She was on the verge of losing her job just on her second day. "I seriously hate this period of my life." She cursed out loudly as she went about her morning routine. She had a quick bath and put on some clothes, not wanting to know if they matched or not. She didn't even know she was going to get to work. It was Jennie's car she entered on her first day. How the hell did she not think of that? "That's it. I'm f**ked!" She cussed again when we got out of the estate with no signs of a cab or taxi. It was almost nine o'clock and she hadn't gotten to work. She was sure Luca would shout at her. Just as she had already lost hope, a car pulled up in fr
HAZEL: "Alright, sir." I nodded. I watched dignitaries that I've seen only on TV walk into the conference room. Minutes later, it was filled up and a person stood on the stage, making sure to welcome every one of us. It happened to be that my boss was the highest shareholder in the College of Education. Julliard School was the most expensive, well and standardized-equipped school in the whole of California. It was Zayn's dream school and he once applied for the scholarship but he didn't get in. Although I was busy taking notes of what the speakers were saying, I felt eyes on me. But I didn't read too much meaning into it. As soon as the meeting came to an end, my boss stood up and walked away, alerting me that he'd be back shortly. He walked across the room to meet an older man who was about to leave. As I stood up and pushed the chair aside to turn, I bumped into a body. The shock I felt made me pull away from the person immediately. "I'm sorry for scaring you." The man said. "
HAZEL: Even though Jennie mentioned a lot of things, there were still some important details she skipped. Like, where to get coffee? I walked down to what looked like a general office with different people seated in cube-like spaces, all chattering amongst themselves. "Excuse me?" I interrupted. They all turned their heads to me at once. I swallow in nothing but air before continuing. "Where can I get coffee?" One of them pointed to a door that was just right behind me. I almost banged my forehead for being so stupid as not to pay attention to details. "Thank you," I smiled and turned my back to them. Their stare of scrutiny was something else, I felt like a little girl being scolded in the midst of adults. I was almost done brewing the coffee but it felt as though I was forgetting something. "Good morning there," I heard behind me. I tilted my head to the right to find someone already standing at the door. What was up with these people and not making a sound when opening th
