Sam bought her favorite coffee first before she went to the office while Charles parked his car and took his private elevator directly to his office.
Sam saw Cindy looking around in the lobby. Obviously, Cindy was waiting for her.
When Cindy noticed her, she smiled widely and called her. “Sam!”
Sam greeted her. After a while, they took the elevator together.
“So, how was it?” Cindy asked.
“How was what?” Sam was confused.
“Don’t pretend as if you do not know. Hmph!”
“I really don’t know what you’re talking about.”<
Charles was done watching the CCTV footage as well. He was wondering why that man suddenly appeared and purposely taken away the dogs right after Richard went inside the apartment.‘It doesn’t seem right.” He thought that the man was secretly observing them already from afar.Charles called Jayson again to investigate this matter as it was not simple as it seems. Then, he immediately got up and went straight to Sam’s apartment.Along the way, he was trying to call Sam but she was not answering. He knew that she treasures the dogs so much. He already imagined how lonely she was.‘Who dared to took away our fur babies!’ He clenched his fist.Charle
“Samantha Wilson, you go up here or I will go down there!” He asked fiercely.“I’ll be there in a minute.” She answered. Then, she stood up immediately.Cindy smells a lovers’ quarrel in the air. She was shaking her head while smiling as she imagined how jealous Charles was.In the CEO’s office. Charles was grudging when he learned from Sam that she was receiving flowers every day. He regretted now that he agreed to keep their relationship a secret. ‘Who has the courage to give flowers to my woman!’He got even more jealous to learn that Sam loved the flowers and the note on them.
“Miss, what’s the matter? You look pale.” The man asked and got the wine glass from Sam.Sam glanced at the strange man but she couldn’t see his face clearly as her head was spinning. She searched for her phone inside her bag to call Charles.Unfortunately, Sam could no longer bear the dizzy sensation. She fainted and fell on the arms of the man.Kelly was secretly observing them from afar. The man turned in Kelly’s direction with a meaningful look and smirk on his face. Kelly simply nodded to him.On the other hand, Charles received a call from his mother so he went to the silent corner of the room. After the call, Sam has not returned yet. He caught sight of her chatting with Kelly before he answered his phone.Charles searched ar
In the car, Charles told Sam to avoid Kelly in the future. He was afraid that Kelly would do something bad again to her.Sam did not ask why as she understands his reason. She also thought that Kelly had put something on her drink that’s why she felt dizzy suddenly and fainted after a few sips.In the middle of their trip, Sam could not help but fall asleep again. While Charles was in deep thought. He was thinking what Harvey Johnson told him earlier. It seemed like a warning. He clenched his fist. Although at the back of his mind, he was thankful to Harvey for saving Sam from that man. If not for him, he could not imagine what happened to Sam.The next day, Sam went to work early and got busy as usual. She had lunch with Charles in his office. Eve
Sam invited Cindy for a drink. She was so heartbroken that she needs someone to vent out her feelings.“Hello, Cindy? Let’s drink.”“Sam, did something happen? Why did you suddenly invite me for a drink?” Cindy knew her very well.“Are you coming with me or not?” Sam was not in the mood to explain on the phone. She just wanted a straight answer.“Sure.” Cindy immediately agreed.Sam and Cindy went together to City Bar. While drinking, Sam told Cindy what she witnessed earlier. Cindy was astounded by what she heard.“I was right, he returned to avenge me. I was so stupid. I knew it from the start but I still believed h
Charles just came out of the elevator when he heard a shout. He immediately went over after he recognized Sam’s voice. He saw Sam who was struggling even though she was no match to Robert’s strength. He promptly grabbed Robert by his shoulder and punched him so hard.Robert was caught unprepared so he fell to the ground. He held his left cheek that was swollen. He stood up in an instant and hit back but Charles was so fast that he was able to avoid his fist. Charles hit him again one after another. Robert was not able to hit back anymore and fell again.While Sam was so shocked, her body trembled and her knees went weak. She suddenly kneeled on the ground and looked at the man who suddenly appear and was surprised to see that it was Charles. When Charles noticed her, he left Robert and immediately walked into her. He picked her up and entered her room.Robert was left on the ground with his swollen face. There’s a trace of blood on his lips. He gritted his teeth an
Five years ago, a month after Charles and Sam first met.Charles passed by the university where Sam was studying after he attended a client meeting nearby. He could not understand himself, as if there was a magnetic force that was pulling him to drive here. He parked near the entrance looking at the students walking out the large gate.‘What was I doing here?’ He thought to himself. After that night when he first saw Sam, he could not forget her beautiful face. He always wanted to see her again. He would park his car in the bus stop where he sent her off for no reason and he even went to the university where she was studying. But he never had the chance to see her even once. He believed that it was impossible for him to see Sam this time as well.Charles was about to leave when he saw a familiar figure. He stared at Sam who was walkin
Sam was stunned by Charles’ remarks and was not able to respond. She could feel the heat rising to her face. She immediately avoided his gaze while Charles turned his attention back to the road. She took her phone from her bag to make herself busy. She browsed again the online shopping app she was checking earlier. However, her mind was not on her phone but was filled by Charles and his earlier statement.After a moment, they arrived at the nearest mall to the university. Sam felt uncomfortable the whole journey, so she was able to feel easy the time they entered the mall.Charles led her to a fine dining restaurant.“Wait,” Sam said as she tugged at his sleeve. Obviously, she was reluctant to enter the place. From its look, she knows that she could not afford to pay even a single order of meal in this kind of restaurant.“Don’t worry, I will pay this time. Pay me back once you have the money.”Charles winked his eye at her. He was aware of what s
