"Janiyah?" Javier asked in surprise when he returned to Janiyah's ward room and saw that Janiyah was not in her bed. He immediately rushed to look inside the comfort room but there was no sign of Janiyah there. He felt nervous, he also didn't notice that someone came out of Janiyah's room earlier. “Damn it!” he shouted angrily. He took his phone and called Angela because Angela was the only one he could count on right now because Liam still hadn't woken up. "Where are you? Is Janiyah in your condo?” Javier asked Angela. "What?" Angela frowned when she asked. "What are you talking about? Why would he come here if he's in the hospital—” "She's missing!" Javier shouted, causing Angela to interrupt what she was saying. "What?" Angela's eyes widened when she heard what Javier said. "I'm on my way there. Maybe Liam was in the garden or went to his room," Angela said. Javier hung up, he didn't answer what Angela said. He immediately went to Liam's room even though it was still on the fi
I was standing on the big stage in front of many people who seemed excited about what was going to happen next. Wearing this long white fitted dress that was full of diamonds on it, provided by our Manager. Somehow, I am not comfortable in this dress, I can feel that I can’t walk properly in this, it seems that I’m inside the web of the spider that wanted to get out from it, but I need to bring this dress as good as it can be. And the make-up artist did put something in my skin to make it more beautiful and shine like what I am wearing right now but at this point, I can feel the itchiness of my skin. He said this is going to be perfect for the eyes of our clients and that’s the cue that I don’t have the right to say no of their plans and ideas. I had the full spotlight of the dazzling light and I was almost blind but I didn't mind it because the order was to smile when we were on stage, smile even though I tried to show that this job was okay with me. I almost forgot that I even had
“Oh God!”I immediately got up from my bed, and wondered how did I get home here? I was with the man just last night. And now? Wait, what happened? I was just talking to him about the money and the last thing he said was. "Oh my gosh!""Janiyah, what happened?"I turned to my mother in shock as she rushed into my room. Her face was worried, maybe because of my shout. What just really happened? Because of the last thing the man said I passed out and now, I don't know how I got home."Are you alright? Are you feeling well?” Mom asked.Am I feeling fine? What does she mean? I looked at my mother in confusion because of what she asked. "The man brought you here last night, he said you passed out on the way and luckily you have your ID in your bag so they know where to take you," she said , it was a cue for her that I was wondering what was happening.Who sent me? That man or his men? Do I still need to thank him for what he did or not? Well, maybe not because I don't want to see that man
Wait, why is this man full of surprises? "What are you doing?" I whispered to him, I could still hear the applause of the people around us. Why are they applauding? And why is also I can hear the applause of the people here as well?"I'm just telling them that you're going to stay here," he said without hesitation.I clenched my fists, if it wasn't for his men who seemed to kill their boss who made the wrong move, I would have hit the man next to me a long time ago.“I went along with what you ordered because I thought we would talk, and I thought you would give me a sensible job. I'm not kidding here, man.” I told him.He looked at me seriously and signaled the people to leave and then they went back to what they were doing. "Let us talk to my office," he said and left first.I sighed and then followed him. We went up the stairs which you can tell that their stairs are really expensive because it’s a glass. He walked into a room with the word 'Office' written on it, before I followed
A few hours later, my family and Javier's conversation ended. I'm just listening to them, my family has a lot of questions for Javier and Javier doesn't run out of answers either. I don't know if everything he answered about my family is true.."Are you really rich?" my brother asked. To me that question is offensive but Javier answered professionally."My family is rich but I have my own business right now, and Janiyah is my new secretary." It seems true if he says it."Dad, Mom, he needs to go now," I told them. Only then did they notice me as if they hadn't been with me since earlier."Oh, go with him, Janiyah." My mother said with a smile. I just nodded and then looked at the man next to me."Let's go? I'll take you outside—”"Aren't you coming home with me?" I immediately covered his mouth and pulled him out of the house. Oh God, why did he have to say that."What are you doing?" I asked him bluntly when we got out and were next to his car, it was also his driver would open the c
He wasn't lying because four hours later he arrived from Hong Kong. How long is the flight from there to here?"Good evening, Master Javier." I heard the guards greet him. I went down the stairs from his room and looked at him as I walked. He was just looking at me and I don't understand why I was nervous while looking into his eyes that didn't want to let go of me."How are you here?" That was his first question when we both got close."I'm doing fine here, Javier. I thought you were in Hong Kong, why are you here?" I asked him softly because I didn't want his employees to think who I was to ask such a question to their boss."I told you that I was going home and I ended my meeting immediately so that I could go home and talk to you," he said.Just that fast? He just came home right away just to talk to me? I'm fine anyway, but I'll admit it's better if he's here so that when I have questions, I'll just ask him."Have you seen your room already?" he asked. I want to hit him, how dare
As Javier said, we left in the morning. He said we were going somewhere but he won’t always be with me because he also had other things to take care of so two of his helpers went with me. Girly and Sandy. If I'm not mistaken, they both seem to be my age, twenty-seven years old."The driver will pick you up for your next appointment after in the mall," said Javier when the car stopped at a mall.I frowned but didn't say anything. I just let him do what he asked me to do. "Girly, this is the list. Make sure you follow that and finish immediately before the next appointment." He handed something to Girly. I want to take it but he's still here, maybe only later when he leaves.He turned to me. "You'll be okay here," he said. That was not a question but he immediately decided that I would be fine with whatever Girly and Sandy and I will do at the mall."Yeah, are you going to follow us inside or are you going to leave?" I'm afraid to ask even though he's leaving right away."Do you want me
We ended up at Hillary's shop and I still can't get over what she said earlier that she wasn't Javier's choice to be his wife. Me too, I don't know why because I'm just a stranger in Javier's life."Thank you, Hillary." I smiled at her. She hugged me."I hope you like all the clothes I chose for you," she whispered.Yes, all the clothes she chose for me are so beautiful. No wonder why he is Javier's stylist. Even Javier's simple clothes suit him.“We're going first, Hillary. Thank you very much again.""Thank you too, Janiyah. We're friends already, right?" she asked. I smiled widely and then nodded.There's nothing wrong with her being my friend, she's also kind. "We are friends now," I told her.After we finished at Hillary's shop, we went to the restaurant. It's not on the list but it's noon so we need to eat three first. "Why here?" I asked Girly because It’s a luxury restaurant. It can only be done at a cheap restaurant."Don't worry, Miss Janiyah. I have Master Javier's card wit
