View MoreLooking at Mia’s vigilant eyes Darren smiled “ I will feel conscious if you continue to stare at me like that, do you need my help with anything?” Mis quickly averted her gaze and pretended to be impervious to his good looks. “ Well you can go to the kitchen and wash all the tableware on the cupboard?” She said, clearing her throat. Her heart was racing in her chest as she didn’t expect Darren to catch her staring at him. Darren stretched himself and walked to the kitchen. His tousled jet black hair made him look even more sexier. He opened the cupboard to get the softwares. His mother had raised him all by herself, a difficult fit for a single mother to perform. When Darren was a kid he had always helped his mother to do household chores. And Mia seemed to have awakened his old habits. After organising the magazines, Mia began to clean the bookshelf. An involuntary smile stretched across her lips as she glanced at the tall man cleaning everything in the kitchen. Although Darr
“Why ? What’s wrong? You had given a new graduate to write an examination we had prepared for experienced professional designers,” the other female interviewer eyed Marry with suspicion. She picked up the resume that Mary had thrown away and went through the pages. “Mia seem like a promising candidate. She is better than all her peers. We can’t afford to loose such a talent. Due to your personal reasons against her.” Mary anxiously bit her lips “ why would I have anything against her?” She shrugged trying to sound indifferent. “There were many bad rumors about when we were at college. She isn’t as innocent as she seems. During her freshman year, Mia would roam around stealing other people’s boyfriends. I know her better than u guys. She has a bad reputation. We can’t afford to take the risk of recruiting her.”“Oh, I see. We trust your judgement lf that’s truly how she is, then you are right we can’t afford the risk. We can’t recruit her, if you hadn’t explained me, it would have seem
After returning home, Mia began applying for a job. After the conversation with her adoptive parents that morning, Mia understood that she could not rely on them or the money they had promised her. Mia had majored in design, she had graduated with flying colours this year. She was a popular face in the university because of her outstanding designs. She was supposed to apply for a job earlier this year as her classmates did, however her applications had been delayed because she had been looking for her parents. After sorting out her portfolio and resume, she sent them to reputable companies. Considering Mia was a gold medalist and had received several accolades, she received interview calls within a few days. “Ohh my God! This is unbelievable.” She clamped her mouth with excitement and stared at the computer. A black invitation was flashing on the screen. It was an interview from Preston Group. Everyone revered the design department of the unity group. Fashion and jewellery des
“Darren, you must have misunderstood things here, " I scolded my daughter in a fit of anger. It doesn’t mean anything,” Lydia flashed a sweet smile, her eyes still fixed on the expensive gift placed on the table. “I don’t want to hear any explanation.” Darren looked at them indifferently. He was in no mood to listen to their stupid justification. Seeing that, James ran over and quickly packed everything and took the bags away. Darren didn’t say anything more. He held Mia’s hand and left Thomason's family villa. Lydia and Eva could not do anything but watch as the couple left them in the dust. Darren finally let go of Mia’s hand when they got outside. His face softened as he looked at her. “Why didn’t you tell me that you were going to see your parents?”Mia wanted to ask her adoptive parents for the money they had promised her, so she couldn’t take Darren with her. “I didn’t plan on visiting them in the first place” she lied. “ I happened to take this route, so I decided to drop
“Something came up, that’s why I’m late,” Darren stood outside the door exuding a powerful aura, making it impossible for Mia to step forward. “Why are you here? I want to go back so just get out of my way.” Mia said broken with anger and sadness. Seeing her red teary eyes, Darren looked at everyone in the living room. Then he gently grasped her wrist. “There’s no hurry.” He took Mia back into the living room. James put the bags on the table and opened them one after the other. After displaying everything on the table, he wiped the sweat off his forehead and retreated behind Darren. James was tired of exerting all his physical strength to do his job. Mia’s eyes widened in shock when she looked at all the expensive gifts. Expensive jewelry, watch,wine and other rare antiques dazzled under the light’s. She wondered if these gifts were also knock offs, like Darren’s expensive watch and suit he had gotten from his friend. Although the Thompson family wasn’t the most powerful fam
The taxi stopped outside the Thompson family’s villa. Mia hurried out and rang the doorbell. Now that she was married to Darren as promised, she decided to ask her adoptive parents for the money they had promised her, After all she did all this so she could find her real parents. Lydia was sitting in the parlour sipping a glass of juice. She looked up at Mia and smiled faintly, “how are you getting along with Darren? You just got married yesterday. So what are you doing here? Shouldn’t you be at your new house? Or hold up, Did something happen? Tell me now!” She didn’t utter the word of money and acted like they didn’t talk about money, which pissed Mia off. Mia looked at her sternly, “I’m here to get the money, that you promised me that you would give me the money as soon as I marry Darren.” Lydia placed the glass of juice on the table. She didn’t plan on giving Mia the money. It was a tactic to persuade Mia. Mia and Darren are married now. Mia wouldn’t even be Anne to do anyt
It was rare for Mia to have a pleasant dream lately. In this particular one, she found her parents, though she could not see the faces clearly but she had this family feeling with them. They went home together and life seemed all bright and peaceful. However, the blaring sound of the ringtone interrupted her dream. Mia sat up on the bed and stared at the strange environment in a daze. It took a while for her to finally remember she was married, she couldn’t adapt to the change yet. As soon as she opened the door of the bedroom, her gaze fell on Darren curling up on the sofa, hugging a pillow. The sofa was too small for his huge body. His legs were dangling out, and a grey blanket was wrapped around him. The sunlight cast a glow on his flawless features, making him look like a Greek God. Mia was glad to know that Darren didn’t make a move on her last night, so she relaxed her guard around him. Mia smiled to herself and walked into the kitchen. There were eggs, bacon and bread in t
Mia was startled, “if I’m not Eva Thompson who else can I be? It’s such a lame question” she said jokingly Mia had married Darren as Eva Thompson, if she messed up the plan Lydia would not give her the money she needed to pay the private investigator who would help her look for her parents. So she had to pretend to be her little sister Eva, once she got the money from the Thompson she would still keep her end of the deal because on No situation could Darren ever find out she’s not Eva but the adoptive daughter. Darren still had a frown placed on his face. The situation looked confusing. He wondered if Mia could be pretending to be nice at first and later show her true colours, but he also knew when a person was pretending to be nice and he most definitely knew Mia was not pretending but he knew something was not right here also. “It was a casual question, just forget about it.” Darren picked up his suit jacket and stepped back “I have finished saying what I want to say. Do you have
“You better take your bath first, I can wait” Mia subconsciously took some steps back as if trying to protect herself from an enemy. She looked like a trapped little bird, struggling hard to hide her panic. Darren stood upright and looked at Janet She looked like a deer caught in a headlight. Darren looked at her and chuckled “don’t be a nervous kitten, I won’t eat you also I need to discuss something with you.” Mia crossed her hands over her chest and hesitantly walked over to him, she didn’t want to be associated with this man in any way. Everything was happening too fast, she was married to a man she just met at the wedding. She wondered what would be of her now that she was married? she didn’t know anything about marriage, she never had a Mother or Father that would teach her those aspects. These were the reasons she needed to find her family, she always wanted a parental relationship but she got none.She was determined to find her parents and she always prayed deep down th
