Grayham’s POV

I traced my way into the bar and headed straight to the VIP lounge where Miles was waiting for me. We texted a while ago and agreed to meet in the lounge we had met before.

The place was gradually turning into our meeting spot. We felt it was safer compared to the way Miles was randomly showing up at the café at night in my body.

When I walked into the lounge, I met Miles taking a sip from his glass. There was a bottle of whisky stationed on the table. I chuckled and settled in front of him.

“I never knew you were into alcohol,” I said and snatched the bottle from the table. I grabbed a glass and poured some drink into it.

Miles pouted his lips like a pissed little kid. He was upset.

I gulped down my drink and nodded in satisfaction as the liquid burned its way down my throat. I then placed my glass on the table. “So, what mess did you create at my company today?”

I had a deep conviction that his mood had to do with something from work.

He sighed and fell back on the sof

  • THE SWITCH: 100 DAYS OF ME AND YOU    SETTLING THE DISPUTE

    Grayham’s POVThe moment I got to the café, I saw Max rushing toward me.“Hey, there’s a small conflict brewing outside. You might want to check it out before it escalates.” Max reported and immediately turned around. He was waiting for me to follow him.I remained transfixed to my spot.What role will I be playing today? A tribal chief that resolves conflict?Gosh!It was barely 8 am and the last thing I wanted to do was get involved in the lives of everyone here.“Hurry up!” Max couldn’t wait any longer. He dashed out.I sighed and then felt a hand resting on my left shoulder. When I turned around, I saw Alex standing behind me.“Miles used to settle most of the disputes around here.”I jerked away and curled my lips in irritation. “I’m not Miles.”There was no point hiding it anymore since Alex was aware and lately, I noticed that he uses every small chance to tell me what Miles does and doesn’t. Had he ever stopped to ask me what I wanted and the pressure that comes with being som

  • THE SWITCH: 100 DAYS OF ME AND YOU    THE CURSE

    Mile’s POVSince Grayham is still mad at me, I didn’t think there was any reason to involve him in today’s quest. I called him so many times but he wouldn't respond.If he was waiting for an apology, then he won’t get any. 20 million dollars isn’t a lot of money judging by his net worth. It’s just like taking a drop out of an ocean and besides thousands will benefit from it so if you look at it, the people won’t have much but enough to compensate for their losses.I kind of feel good though.If he was sensitive and kind, he would be glad I made the move because right now, all news outlets and bloggers are talking about him. Henry also mentioned that certain investors want to partner with the company.Maybe I’m a good businessman after all.Right now, I was seated in the back seat of a cab and was headed towards Nathan’s residence. I’ve been communicating with him in the past few days and he asked me to pick him up in front of his house this morning. I decided to book a ride instead

  • THE SWITCH: 100 DAYS OF ME AND YOU    RAGE!

    Grayham’s POVTwo cars pulled up in front of the café. A Bentley and a Range Rover and guess what, both cars are mine.I clenched my jaw and watched two of my bodyguards in sleek suits step out of the Range Rover. Then, they rushed to the Bentley and opened the door to the back seat.Miles emerged from the Bentley in my customized Brioni suit.The anger inside me spread like a burning wildfire and I was already sweating profusely from the impact.Anger, jealousy, and Rage!I watched the live broadcast. All of us who were working at the café at that time saw it. Alex had a small old model television glued to the wall in the café so that was how we watched the news.Miles, fucking Miles donated twenty million dollars in the name of charity.My money!And now, he had the guts to drive down here in my cars, with my security team in the name of paying homage to the affected communities?Crappy insolence!He began taking steps towards us. There was a small crowd gathered in front of the caf

  • THE SWITCH: 100 DAYS OF ME AND YOU    A PRESS CONFERENCE

    Mile’s POVWhen I entered the office and sat on Grayham’s comfy chair, an idea struck me like lightning. I immediately beamed and quickly placed a call to Henry via the telephone on the table.A few moments later, he came running through the door. I smiled and sat up with my hands positioned on the table.“You said something about getting the media team?” Henry asked, his tone was etched with confusion.I had told him to come to my office immediately. I had pointed out that I needed him to carry out a task with the media.“Yes. I’m talking about a press conference.” I replied and then raised a finger. “An emergency press conference in like an hour.” I glanced at my watch.Henry hummed. “Okay. I can arrange that. Do you have any media outlets in mind or you’d want us to stick to the ones we always host.”I stood up and immediately left the desk. “I’m not talking about the usual business conference so strike out any business channels.”Henry looked up.“I’d be needing reporters from mai

  • THE SWITCH: 100 DAYS OF ME AND YOU    I'VE ALWAYS KNOWN

    Grayham’s POVI looked at Alex in wonder, my jaw was almost dropping to the floor. He blinked and the look in his eyes proved that he was saying the truth.“My God!” I immediately turned away.I might have fooled the whole world but trying to fool a father who had been with his child all his life had proven to be an impossibility.I couldn’t help but wonder. Does my Granpa know that Miles wasn’t me or was Miles putting on such a good act that he couldn't detect?I have failed!I finally mustered the courage to turn to Alex and look him in the eyes. “For how long?” I asked him. “For how long have you known that I was another person in your son’s body?”He sighed. “For about a week now.” He replied. “You’ve been acting quite strange since you came out of that coma and I didn’t want to put unnecessary pressure on you because I felt the accident might have altered your routine so you needed time but when I started to pay more attention, I noticed that you were just…“Different!” I complet

  • THE SWITCH: 100 DAYS OF ME AND YOU    I'M NOT MILES

    Grayham’s POVGosh!The burning sensation I had experienced all over my body was back. My head was aching badly and I could barely keep my eyes open with the way my head was spinning in circles.My arm was wrapped around the man supporting me and we were heading back to the café. The rain had ceased. Liam who had stopped crying was now walking alongside the three of us.I fell from the tree and landed in a dirty puddle. I ended up twisting my left ankle and right now, I’m in so much pain. I could even pass out from the pain.The fever was still in my system and it appeared that the rain had intensified it. It shot up and now, I was back to square one, feeling like shit.One of the men was in front, leading us back home with his flashlight while the other was helping me to walk. Every step I took was painful and the man seemed to be in a hurry.We finally arrived at Kaden home and the first person I saw was Alex. He was standing by the door.“Give way!” He yelled when we approached the
