Josh POV
When I entered my villa all the lights are off, that's when I remember that Betty did not come today because she has an important matter to attend to in her family in her hometown. Their place is slightly far from City A. So that's why she needs t to be there for three days before she could come back here. This time she asks to leave for five days. So I might be alone in my villa for those five days. I open my fridge and get those cooked dumplings then put them in a microwave oven to heat them. After the heating is done I put it on the plate then slowly eat. While eating, I remember cass beautiful but lonely awra on the way home. I get my phone in my pocket then send her a message asking if she had already eaten. I can't help but feel delighted when I see her response. I just told her to continue eating her dinner. I would like to ask her what was she eating but I dismiss it in mind, I might be sound nosy. I wash my plate and put it on the
Cass POV I am still deep in my sleep when I was disturbed by the ringing of my alarm clock. I look at where the clock was put on then reach to turn it off. After turning it off, I did not get out of my bed instead close my eyes again. So because I don't have enough sleep, I easily go back to sleep. But after some time I dream that I heard my phone beep, which makes me awaken and frantically sit up on my bed holding my head. It was aching from lack of sleep. I grab my phone on top of my bedside table to check if I am just dreaming. My eyes widened when I see the message of Josh that said," Good Morning Cass, I presume at this moment that you are already awake. Because I will arrive in front of your apartment in any minute." I stood up immediately and rash to my bathroom to take a quick shower not even looking at the time. When I'm done, I walk out to the bathroom and grab my clothes as well as my bag. I put on my clothes and stand in front of the mir
Josh POV While I was engrossed in playing on my phone, a message from Cass pop-up on my notification. I clicked it to view what was her reply. I did not expect that she is already in the office at this moment. So I did not bother composing a response to her, instead put down my phone and started the car. I drove away from my villa, while driving my car my mind was still on the message that I just read. Is she really that early? Hmm, or might be responded to me like that in order to get back at me. I smile at that thought. Were like cats and dogs in that case. When I was about to pass by in her apartment, I saw someone sitting on the bench near the post of a street lamp. I slow down my car when I got a clear view of that person it was Cass, she just really want to get back at me. I stop my car in front of her then I called her out," Hey! Good comeback Miss Lim," I said. When she looks up and happens to fix in my direction, our eyes meet, And I can se
When I get out of his office after sending his coffee and schedule, I felt relieved. I really don't know how to address him. I go back to my office and continue working until I didn't notice the time it was already time for lunch. I snap back from my work when I heard a knock on my door. When I saw who it was, and see what was he carrying in his hand I smile with gratitude. " Thank you, Mr. Morris," I said. "It's nothing I see that you did not go out even if it is already time for lunch so I also grab food for you when I get out to buy food for Mr. Stanley," he said politely. I just nod my head as an answer to what he said. So after seeing me nod he gestured his hand to indicate that he would be going. He turns around to leave. totally out of my office, I stand up from my seat to eat. After having my lunch I decided to relax a little while, I sit down on my chair and lean my head on my table to take a nap. I sleep late so I did not sleep well last night that makes me felt a little s
While driving towards her apartment, I don't know what to say so I turn on the stereo on my car. The music played was a song title for the first time. I never thought before that someday I would listen to music and keep my attention on every meaning of the lyrics. I look at her from the side of my eyes while my eyes still fix on the road. I see her looking outside the window not knowing what she think. She was just calm, few minutes later she leans her head on the back of the chair while closing her eyes. I did not disturb her, I just continue driving. When we arrived in front of her apartment I saw her about to open her eyes so I look down from the side to open the door and get out. I walk towards the side of my car where she is sitting, I help her open the door. After she gets out I close it back. I told her to wait here and she just nodded her head then turn around to walk towards her apartment. I also walk to the driver's side of my car and get in. Seeing her was about to open h
I was stunned when I heard what he said. I can't believe the outstanding and handsome Josh Staley Of city A did not date anyone until now? And because of me? and I am the first woman he dated? Hmm, my hair must be very long. I didn't notice it. I keep my head down as if I'm so focused on my food. A few minutes of silence and he did not talk also," I-I can't believe that you like me. I-I am not fit with you...I mean your status and mine are not suited for each other," I said looking at him while I'm speaking he also look at me in my eyes. Which gives a shiver down my spine. " I am the one who knows who suits me or not. So don't ever look down on yourself, okay?" he said more like comforting me from feeling pity for myself. I felt warmth in his words. " How about your parents? I heard people in your level have already had their fiance chosen by their parents since they were young," I said while continuously eating my food. " Cass please, believe me, my parents have a candidate to be m
When I put down my glass I see her just holding her glass while staring at it intently. I remember that she had a low tolerance for it. " Oh, It's not that hard this is a low alcohol wine, it cant affect you even if you have a low tolerance of wine. We did not toss a drink in the restaurant so I decided to do it here," I said. " Don't worry I won't let you drink more just that to make a toss," I continued. She looks at me before taking a sip then gulp it in one go. She cringes after tasting it that makes her face a little flush. She looked at me," I'm sorry I am not good at this," she said embarrassed." I smiled at her," It's okay, don't be embarrassed about that," I said with satisfaction. In my mind, all the quality of a woman that I am looking for is with her. So she won't dream of skipping into my reach because I am going to look for her no matter where it is. When we are talking betty walk into the living room bringing some tea for us. " Don't make her drink too much just one s
I entered my apartment and close the door. I sigh when I was alone in the comfort of my apartment. Today is not tiring but an unbelievable event happens to me. Do I really was pursued by one of the billionaires and outstanding bachelors in city A? Oh my God, I feel like I was just dreaming. Okay, I think I need to take a shower to freshen up myself maybe that could help me absorbed the unpredicted happenings in my life that was started a few days ago. At first, I did not take it to heart. I just tried to ignore his persistence because I thought his just making fun of me. And here I am inside my apartment leaning in my apartment door lost in thought. After who knows how many minutes of being lost in my mind, I walk to my room, put down my things in my closet grab a towel before taking off my clothes, and get in the bathroom to soak myself in a warm shower. But before I could reach the bathroom door I heard a notification sound on my phone so I decided to just look at who it is before
When I came to my office, I knew Cass was not yet in her office, so I started doing my work. I was focus on my computer when my door open without me knowing and my mother walk in. I know Betty already told her and I can't be wrong for how many years I have known Betty very well. I was staring at her while she is walking towards me," Good morning son, How are you today? Is everything alright in the company?" she said sitting down on the chair opposite my desk. " Goodmorning mom, Everything is fine mom. What brings you here?" I said leaning a little to kiss her cheek. "Hmm, I just wanna check on you. You know your mom is bored I wonder if you had already found my daughter-in-law to be?" she asks with raised brows." Mom, please I already told don't make me rush. I promise I would bring you a daughter-in-law," I said in an irritated tone. " Oh? Why don't you call your executive assistant to bring me some juice and a coffee for yourself? " she said. " Mom...Fine," I said picking the phon
