CHAPTER FIFTEENFor Her Man 2Alexander's POVI sighed after she stepped out of my office, just her presence irritated me, her being with me was so suffocating. I sat back on my chair as my eyes caught the frame on my table again, I just wanted her to wake up, that was all I wanted.All I had ever asked God was to wake Emily up, but he wouldn't listen to me, he didn't even consider that I had never asked him anything Before, he refused to hear my plea.Everyday, I would cry and plead to him that he let Emily get back up, I would cry to him that he let her open her eyes again, but he wouldn't hear me out.Wasn't my cry loud enough, do I have to shout out loud? was he going to hear me if I shout and cry more than I had been doing? I really didn't think so.If tears could build a staircase, I would have climbed it up to God and ask him directly, I would have gone to him and ask him to help my Emily get back up on her feet, to help her open her eyes again, but unfortunately, my tears wou
CHAPTER SIXTEENThe PlayboyEliza's POVI took my seat after they both left and heaved a sigh of relief, I didn't know what the relationship between both of them was but they were a great match.Their behavior was the same, their arrogance and the way they talk low at people, she was also as rude as Alex was.I rested my head on my desk for the umpteenth time, I hoped that I wouldn't be disturbed this time again, I just wanted to rest my head for some minutes, that was all I asked for? is that really to much to ask for in this company?Everything about this man and this company, everyone was just as weird and rude as he was, expect for Dennis who has shown a different quality.He was the only one who wanted to be friends with me, he was the only one who talked to me like I was a human, others would just talk like I was piece of shit and they were just trying to throw me off, and I have had to cope with that all my lifeThey talk to me like the lowlife I was, they could have just talke
CHAPTER SEVENTEENA New Friend I finished my meal and took the elevator up to the first floor, deep in thought about what had just happened. I couldn't believe that those girls had tried to trip me and make me fall. It was no secret that they didn't like me, but I never expected them to stoop that low. I felt a pang of sadness and loneliness as I realized that I had never had a real friend in my life.What they did wasn't really a surprise because I had been there quite a lot of time, I had even been through something worse than that.I was a victim of bully at the elementary school, they were memories I would never forget, they remain so fresh in my head that nothing in there world would ever erase them.They were things I wish I could look back on one day and smile, but unfortunately, they still put me in so much pain whenever I remember it. Why can't people get friends with me? Why can't they like me and act nice to me just like they do to everyone else?Those were the biggest que
CHAPTER EIGHTEENThe KissJust few minutes after getting my space, Alex walked to me and rested his hand on my desk.I knew he was up to something again, and I hoped it would go well this time because I obviously wouldn't be able to avoid it."Pack your bags, we have to go to the hospital," he said and my mouth dropped.I looked up at him with my face furrowed, I just couldn't understand what he meant, he was confusing me once again.The hospital? For what?.I didn't know if I should ask him those questions because I really didn't want to get on his nerve again, I wasn't in for his troubles.I decided to ask after giving it a lot of thought, it wasn't like I was sick, why does he have to take me to the hospital?And if he was the sick one, he could go to the hospital without having to take me along with him. Since I got out of the hospital, months after my surgery, I always hated to go back there because it keeps giving me memories of what happened back in my childhood. How I had to
CHAPTER NINETEENHalf ParalyzedAlexander's POVAs I drove down the street towards the hospital, I spotted Eliza walking along the sidewalk. My blood boiled at the mere sight of her. How dare she do what she did to me? I swerved my car to the side of the road and rolled down the window.I had waited for her to join me at the road side after I left her at the garage but she didn't, she was walking home on her own like she could watch such long distance."Get in," I growled, my voice dripping with irritation.I would never go back on my plan to get my revenge on her, she had to pay for what she did to me, she was the one who ruined my life and I would have to ruin her own life too.My Emily was in that condition because of her, she was in coma because of her.I looked at her and she seem to be hesitating, clearly taken aback by my tone. But she must have sensed the danger in my eyes because she quickly climbed into the passenger seat. We drove in silence, the tension between us palpable
CHAPTER TWENTYWe're Getting MarriedEliza's POVI walked out of the room, the anticipation of Alex's arrival bubbling inside of me. I had spent hours preparing a delicious meal and I was eager to share it with him, I wanted to know what he thinks about the meal, because the one I made in the morning wasn't really good for him and I could see that in his reaction towards me. But as I walked into the dining room, I saw that everything was still untouched, and a sense of confusion and worry swirled inside of me.I didn't know why I was suddenly getting worried, after all all Alex had ever done was to make my life a living hell, why was I concerned about him?I looked around, something must have changed if it was to be that he was back and in the room, but nothing had changed.I tried to tell myself not to worry too much, that he was probably just caught up with work or something, but that didn't stop the unease from twisting in my stomach.I settled down at the table, hoping and praying
