Eva had finished her work early that day and she figured out since she had a lot of free time, she should probably cook something for Stefan and brought it to his office.
Since she had been to Trident headquarter, she could easily navigate it with no problem and Stefan left his driver with her so she could ask him to drive her there. Transport no longer became a problem.
“Now let’s see, what should I make?” She walked to the kitchen and saw their personal chef, Wagner there and she approached him with curiosity.
“Hey, I would like to make something for Stefan, do you know what his favorite dish are and can you help me make them? I’d like something quick and easy to make because I want to deliver them to him later.” She told him.
“Oh, of course I can help you. Mr. Romand is a huge fan of
"I always interpret coincidences as little clues to our destiny."-Ann Brashares-***“I’m sorry I cannot go on a date with you today, my love. I have a few business that I need to take care for today and it’s requiring my full attention.”It was Saturday morning and usually every weekends, Eva and Stefan would be going on a date but that week, Stefan actually had some work to do and he couldn’t accompany her until evening.“I can take you out in the evening and we can have dinner together, but I don’t want you to be bored during daytime, so I have told my driver to drive you anywhere you want to go today.”He told her before pulling out his card holder and handed over his black card to her.“Get anything you want today, consider it an apology from me.” He told her.Eva was almost shaking when she was grabbing that black card because never in
"Childhood friends can never be forgotten for they are the ones who made us who we are."-Unknown-***Eva had not always been a loner her entire life despite being more introverted. When she was younger, she had a neighbor, the Spencer family who had a son named Larry.Little Larry was a fat boy who was shy and timid. He was often bullied by the other kids for his appearance. He lacked self-confidence and was a loner.However, there was one person who always treated him well and that was Eva.As a young girl, Eva was already a nerd but she didn’t need a glasses until she was in middle school but she was still socially awkward.Because they lived literally next to each other, they gradually became friends. By coincidence, turned out they also went to the same school.Eva was always a smart girl but Larry was just average, so she would often teach him a few subjects which he didn’t understan
"Never let your emotions overpower your intelligence."-Drake-***“What would you like to tell me, my love?” He asked as he grabbed her hand so she could sit beside him.“Earlier, I met with a childhood friend of mine at the mall. He was the sales associate for Cartier store that I went into and he invited me to have a meal with him if I want to so we could catch up on our lives.”Hearing this, Stefan raised his brow.“And what do you plan to do?” He asked her.“I want to go, but I don’t want you to get the wrong idea, that’s why I am telling you about it first.” She admitted. Stefan thought about it for a few seconds before answering.“Okay, I will let you meet him but I must come with you as well to make sure that he doesn’t cause you any harm.” He told her.Eva was a bit weirded out because he was acting like a fat
"We can do more for the people if they are not so aware of what we are trying to do."-Volker G. Fremuth-***It had almost been a week since she started working there and Madeline had made a few attempts to get close to Stefan, from bringing him coffee to spreading her charm around him hoping he would finally notice her and pay some attention.No, no matter what she did, he never batted an eye toward her and it was making her frustrated.Meanwhile, she saw him smiling at his phone a few times before while texting someone and she assumed it was his girlfriend he was texting.She recalled the woman’s face last time and still thought that Eva was just a plain jane.“Just what exactly does he see in his girlfriend?” She wondered.Madeline was so curious that she started to create a rather odd plan. She decided to follow them as they went on their date.It was a long story but she
"Surprise is the greatest gift which life can grant us."-Boris Pasternak-***It was Sunday morning and Eva woke up because she heard some noises from outside. She checked the clock and it was eight am.Usually Eva would be awake by seven because she was an early bird and if she wasn’t already awake by then, Stefan would knock on her door to wake her up for breakfast.This time it was slightly different and it made her wonder what was happening. She pushed away the blanket and walked outside.She stepped into the elevator and headed downstairs and when the elevator door opened, Eva saw Stefan’s younger sister Monica and her husband Patrick who Eva had met at her birthday party before, but something was a bit different this time because she didn’t come there alone.There was also a little stroller with a bear, I mean, a human baby inside, but the baby was wrapped in a bear jumpsuit for babie
"The soul is healed by being with children."-Fyodor Dostoevsky-***As Eva and Stefan walked at the mall, they both noticed that people seemed to be staring at them more often than usual and they wondered if it was because they had a baby with them.It was subtle but definitely noticeable.From the strangers’ perspective, it was because they saw the epitome of what looked like a perfect family.A handsome and protective father figure, a beautiful and caring mother figure and the most adorable little baby wearing a bear costume.It seemed perfect and sweet at the same time they just couldn’t help themselves.“What do you want to eat, Eva?” Stefan asked her.“I am not really that hungry, let’s just grab something light.” She told him. It was a bit unusual because Eva was one of the hungriest woman he ever knew. It wasn’t that she ate a lot but she e
"A daily dose of daydreaming heals the heart, soothes the soul and strengthen the imagination."-Richelle E. Goodrich-***“Good evening, how have your day been with my cute little bear?” Monica stepped into the living room and greeted Eva and Stefan with a huge smile on her face.This time she came alone. Who knew where her husband was.“It was great, actually.” Eva replied politely while Stefan just shook his head with a smile on his face. He was secretly having fun with Harvey’s presence as well. However, he would never admit it out loud for anyone.“He didn’t cause you too much trouble, did he? She asked as she picked Harvey up from his trolley and started hugging him.“No, he actually didn’t. Harvey is such a good, well behaved boy I never had any trouble with him.” She reassured her.“Well, that’s great. Thank you for looking
"The Essence of Strategy is choosing what not to do."-Prof Michael Porter-***Eva was heading to her nail appointment in the afternoon. Stefan was busy with work that day so she came there with the driver and when she stepped inside the nail salon, she saw a familiar face over there who was getting her nail done as well.“You, I think I have seen you before.” Eva stated as she sat down next to the woman after talking to the nail technician about the style she wanted.“Yes, I’m Madeline, the intern at Trident. We have met before.” The woman replied.“Ah, yes, I remember our first encounter. What are you doing here at this hour? Aren’t you supposed to be at work?” She asked.“I actually have hybrid shift. Some days I work from office some days I work remotely. Today I work remotely and I have finished everything I need to do, so I came here.” Madelin
