LOGINBonnie's POV I cleared my throat and put up a defiant expression, sticking up my head. “Yes, I'm Bonnie. The lady who filmed with him is also Bonnie. You might say we are namesakes and doppelgangers. And so?" “Liar. I work here too, in case you are not aware. Simon told me you are the one. Now, why would he want to lie about that?" “And why would you want to be bothered with whoever he filmed the ad with?” This one silenced her this time.I returned my attention to Gia. “If you guys need a takeout, just tell that sweet guy at the counter and he will package it for you." I turned around sharply without giving her a chance to say another word.The blond girl followed me with angry steps.Who the hell was she? What did she want? She caught up with me in the pantry while I tried to put some stuff in order.“I don't want anything from the pathetic being that filmed with him other than a compensation for stealing my spot." Was this girl real now? I scoffed. “I'm sorry, I stole nothing.
Bonnie's POV I grinned at the notification. I never thought I would get a buyer so quickly.@Jorjia - I'm interested. Is it really $900?I grinned as I sent my reply without even watching where I was going, until I almost bumped into a woman struggling with several shopping bags. I quit texting and focused on finding my way. I met Dean's gaze as I approached the bus stop where he was seated quietly beneath the shade alone on a bench, waiting.“Who are you so eager to text in the middle of the road at the cost of your life?” He sneered."Shut up. I wasn't in the middle of the road. And it's not whatever you're thinking. It's only a client.He snatched the ice cream package from my hand and opened it. "Awwwn. It's so thoughtful of you to get these for us. I was just craving.” I chuckled in my head. If only he knew the history behind it.He took his ice cream as I sat next to him and resumed my texting.Lizbet - Yeah. It's fairly used. Not brand newJorjia - I want it. Where can we me
Bonnie's POV I smiled bitterly after Lena's friend left. Her name refused to register in my head. “You were saying something." Mich cleared his throat, bit his lower lip and looked away. “I know a lot of things must be going on in your head, but you ought to know better. Lena has always been on my tail. It's nothing serious.”Why was he telling me like it was any of my business?I shrugged and concentrated my attention on scanning the menu, whose icon was etched on the table. As expected, the cost of everything was outrageous and I didn't have the heart to place an order.“I'll have whatever you're having.” I said quietly.Mich looked like he had something else to say, but he fell mute. He ordered grilled salmon with creamy mashed potatoes and seasonal vegetables.It was so heavenly.“Michael, stop eating like a recently discharged patient. I believe you're spending a fortune on this, so you should enjoy yourself.” I remarked when I noticed he seemed to lack appetite.“Do you really
Mich's POVNo big deal if I finally voiced my feelings to her, right? I had only barely convinced her to stay, and was really glad. But Antonio was getting on my last nerves this time, especially with the shit he rubbed on my face the previous day when I was just about to successfully make out with Bonnie for the first time.I desperately needed an outlet for my fury, and had gone to meet Sammy in his quarters after Antonio left with Bonnie. He was a darling to have her phone fixed just in time."Sammy, don't you get it? This guy just insulted me to my face indirectly, just like that Dean idiot.”Sammy snickered, then laughed.“What's amusing you?" He shook his head and waved his hand dismissively. “Honestly, if I was the one, I would also do that. Why the hell would I ask you to place an order and you tell me to my face that you would rather prefer someone else? Not like we have a beef with each other." I scoffed and rolled my eyes. “I'm so glad you get the point. Of course, we don
Bonnie's POV When I returned home, there was no one around. I was grateful for the peace and quiet, though I knew it wouldn't last long. I took a good long shower and then sat with a cup of coffee at the balcony, enjoying the cool night breeze. My mind wandered to the day's events. I had made up my mind to accept Mich's offer and leave right after that, but the incident between me and him, and Antonio, left me at a crossroads.It was really obvious what we had been about to do, had Antonio not stepped in. It was super humiliating for me.But what the hell did Mich take me for? And what exactly was he trying to achieve? Did I seem like a fool to him? Or did I suddenly look vulnerable all because he promised me a few additional bucks?Well, an extra two thousand dollars wasn't exactly a few bucks. Neither was it enough to make me feel used.When I returned to the room, I noticed something sticking out of Mirabel's wardrobe by the corner of her bed. Curiosity pushed me to take a closer
Bonnie's POV Dean was at the gym’s entrance when I came. He waved at me and stepped out. "Are you okay? You look worn-out?" “What do you do here often?" I observed the area curiously. He shrugged. "Nothing much. I just help out with photo shoots for important clients. I work with a couple of photographers.” "Is that so? That's great. Why was I thinking you would be crying out your ass that Mich kicked you out?" He snorted and rolled his eyes. “He is the real asshole. I will make him regret not picking me. Let's just say that audition was merely a ticket to get my real deal." “I don't understand." “Would you believe that guy came with his girlfriend for breakfast this morning, and when I went to take his order, guess what he said he wanted? A different waiter to serve him. You know what I did? I told the others he said he wouldn't be making any order, so everyone let him be until he realized my stunt.” "Dean? Really?" “No, really? He had to say that to my face? Di
Mich narrowed his eyes at me, stroking his chin. "I'll call you what I like, because I'm the boss here. I'm the one calling the shots.”"It's my name. I'll teach you how to pronounce it.”A knock came at the door before he could respond. "Yeah, come in, Ruky.”The lady who had ushered me, in walke
"Bonita Helmes. You're up next." I blew air into my cheeks when I heard my name. This was my tenth interview in two weeks. Yuup. One interview per day. This time, unlike other interviews, it was being conducted by the CEO himself, because it was for the position of a personal assistant.A posit
So what? Was he a god or a king that couldn't be yelled at? “You have no right to call me names or judge me!" He nodded, clicking his tongue. “Minus two dollars. You have no right to call me Mich." We held each other's gaze as usual. “So get back to work or get out." Was he really going to pay m
The gown and heels were gone when I finally awoke to my blaring alarm by 6am. Next to me was Shirley, and on the other bed were Mirabel and Arella. I remembered Shirley's warning for me not to leave it there. No doubt Mirabel and Arella must have taken it. But then, it wasn't impossible for the
