Liana’s POVEverything was very new to me: the formality, the respectfulness, and everything they were showing me, which made me feel awkward at the moment, but I felt like I needed to accept it because things are going to become that way from now onwards.I decided not to act like a novice when it comes to stuff like this; that’s why I would not lose my respect in the eyes of everyone, and he’s already respecting me.I was shown my office, and when I got there nobody looked at me. They were all very concentrated on their work as if they weren’t expecting anyone. I decided to respect myself and just sit down on my seat and wait till I am given any job to do.“Thank you.” I said to the lady, and she went back to her position. I was very nervous; my legs could not stop shaking because I was having serious anxiety at this point. I felt like I wasn’t doing something right, or maybe I was just overthinking the whole thing. I was worried about making mistakes and not doing up to Jace’s exp
Writer’s povIt was finally the day that Liana was supposed to resume work. She was very nervous about it because she has never worked before, and this one came as a result of the connection she has with the family, so somehow she feels like she might not be up to the task, but at least she will put her best into the work and make sure she does her best.Celeste was not totally in support of it because she was wondering why all of a sudden Liana is interested in working when she isn’t even done with school yet. Leanna tried convincing her several times before she finally agreed, but that doesn’t mean she is in support of it; she just doesn’t want to get into any misunderstanding with her daughter again.“I want to trust that you will do a good job, but you know that there is still an opportunity for you to change your mind; nobody is forcing you to work because you really don’t have to do it.” Celeste tried to convince Liana again before leaving, but Liana has already made up her mind
Jace's POVI was still very upset with him, and I couldn't hide it because I still can't believe that if tomorrow something comes up between Shayla and me, he's definitely not going to take my side. It was definitely more of a heartbreak than anger from me, because his action was totally unexpected.When we closed that chapter, he tried his best to bring conversations that would make both of us forget about the home misunderstanding, but I just couldn't forget it; his words, his facial expression, and his tone couldn't stop lingering in my head.At this point I honestly just wanted to be alone; I didn't want to have any conversation with him, but on the other hand, I was trying to avoid having a misunderstanding with him. So I had to pretend like I was okay with everything and just forget about the misunderstanding we had earlier.*******After a while we were done talking, and I went back to my room. I could not stop feeling very disappointed about how our conversation went and final
Jace's POVI was very excited about realizing that Liana can help me out with the translation. I didn't understand exactly why I was happy about it; somehow it felt like the happiness was more about both of us working together and not just her helping me out.I tried to snap out of it, but I kept thinking about it continuously.“Hey.” Caleb finally decided to visit me after a few days of ghosting me; he even stopped picking up my calls or texting me and all social media. I tried visiting him several times, but he kept ignoring my visits, trying to keep his distance from me. I still don't understand the reason why he did that, but maybe finally he will explain to me why he reacted that way towards me.I looked at his face very well, trying to figure out if I could get anything from his facial expression, but unfortunately I couldn't because he looked perfectly okay, like nothing had happened.“Why were you not picking up my calls? I even invited you over to the company so that you coul
Jace's POVI was stressed about getting someone to help me translate for Chinese investors, and little did I know that there is someone here that can help me do it. I was so excited I almost hugged her out of excitement; I had to stop myself immediately and control my excitement because I don't want to make her feel the slightest discomfort because from now on it seems like both of us will be working together until the investors are gone.Now the only problem I'm facing is how do I tell her about it and also how sure I am that she's going to agree to help me? The worry weighed me down because it was too sudden, and I don't know how she's going to handle it.“Have you ever had any interest in working with the company?” She opened her eyes wider than normal the moment you heard the question that I asked, like she wasn't expecting me to ask such a question.“Why are you asking me that all of a sudden?” She asked me curiously. I don't know if she was trying to avoid the question or if she
Writer’s povJace was still struggling to find someone who could help him with the translation before the investors arrived; this situation was stressing him out because he didn’t know where to start or what to do first.It’s been four days already, and there’s still no hope yet. It feels like no one will be able to do it, or else he steps out of the werewolf world. He was only scared of involving someone that is not from their world because he doesn’t want to make any mistake that would implicate them.His head was spinning; there was a lot bothering him, and he didn’t want everyone in the house to know that something was bothering him. He tried as much as possible to be discreet about it and not let everyone know that there was something like that bothering him.“Good morning, Jace.” Liana said goodbye to him and excused herself to go to the kitchen for her usual drink and coffee from Martha. Even though she didn’t spend so much time with him, she could already tell that it was some
