LOGINThe next day, Kylie arrived at the location of the party but remained in her car. She sucked in two deep breaths at the thought of seeing Sienna again. Sienna had once texted her about how much she missed her and right now, Kylie didn't know if that message had really come from her or not. After staying in the car for about ten minutes, she stepped down from it, and grabbed the small box in it— a gift she had carefully picked for Sienna. Kylie walked into the hall and when she got in, she headed straight for the second floor so she could watch from a distance. She stood close to the bannister, and when the curtains opened widely, Sienna stepped out into the light. The crowd cheered, slamming their hands together to welcome the princess dressed so gorgeously and a small smile escaped Kylie's mouth as she stared at her beautiful big girl. What came next had the smile on Kylie's face fading away immediately. Sebastian stepped up to the stage and besides him, Judy followed. Kylie
The air-conditioner in the room felt unusually high today, and Scarlett had not even the slightest idea if it was because she was tired or her body was simply sensitive to every damn thing.She raised her wrist to her gaze and her eyes scanned the watch on her wrist. Their flight back to Las Vegas was in an hour and thirty minutes and yet, she had no idea what her boss was still discussing with the investors.Her eyes still settled on Kingsley, watching as his fingers tapped on the long ceramic table lightly, quietly listening to the men's long talk. Just from a glance, Scarlett could tell whatever deal this was all about wasn't going to fall through.Whenever Kingsley Stone was displeased with something, he always had that look on his face. That extreme look of seriousness while tapping on the table and now he was doing it again.She almost chuckled but gulped it back down her throat when his gaze suddenly fell on her, making shivers run down her spine.Her eyes found something else
~SCARLETT~“One more glass and we'll call it a night.” Scarlett mumbled to herself when the flashbacks just couldn't stop playing in her head over and over again. She still found it hard to believe Clara had done that to her.Clara had every damn thing. A perfect life with rich parents. Her life was completely mapped out and planned from birth by her parents and she didn't have to lift even a finger for whatever she wanted.Money? It certainly wasn't a problem Men all lined up? It wasn't a damn problem because a lot of surgeries had made her close to perfection in terms of beauty and a great body. So why the hell did she do that? Why Jackson of all the men lined up for her.Meanwhile, Scarlett had to work her ass for everything. Since her father died five years ago and left them in a huge debt, she had been the one responsible for her sick mother and her younger sister who still had to finish college. She couldn't understand why her Dad had done that to them because he loved
In over three years of working as his secretary, this was the first time Kingsley Stone was having a fucking heart.“You're free to go.” He said, and Scarlett’s brows knotted, Her eyes landed on the wall clock in his office and they widened in shock as her feet remained rooted in a spot, barely moving an inch. It was just 5pm and he was letting her off work already.“Didn't you hear me?” His voice came out again, colder this time, and Scarlett instantly shook, forcing her body to move, “Thank you sir.” She murmured and immediately stepped out of his office. Twenty minutes later, Scarlett was walking out of the company with her bag clutching on her shoulder and legs moving to the roadside to get herself a ride.“Taxi.” She got into the car, and it drove off instantly. Mr Stone had never called it a day by 5pm before, especially when there was a pending meeting and she couldn't help but wonder why. If something good really happened today, she had to pray often for a lot more to happe
~OLIVIA~What the hell was I even thinking? Taking an offer to be in the same space as Brayden Asher. This felt like me asking for fire I knew could burn me fiercely in the end. “Alright, it's settled then. I'll prepare an accommodation…”“It's fine. I'll like to handle my accommodations myself if you don't mind. Getting me this offer was more than I could ask for.”Richard smiled at me, “Your Mom was right. You truly are hardworking, Olivia. Alright, it's fine. Just know if there's anything else you need, your new home is one call away.” He assured me and I nodded my head.We had lunch in silence. Brayden didn't utter a word, nor did he oppose anything that was said earlier. I guess he was cool with me working in the team.After lunch, I rose to my feet to leave and to my surprise Brayden did the same almost immediately, “Can you show Olivia around the building? She'll be leaving with you tomorrow so maybe you two can get along a little before your departure.”“She isn't a
Damian's fingers twitched beside him. He didn't pick up the phone, still staring at it ringing for the third time until it finally stopped.It angered him that Sebastian was calling. What would he want with a woman he had treated so badly and even replaced like she meant absolutely nothing?After the call ended, he picked up the phone and tucked it into the bag still on the couch, picking up the bag afterwards. Damian headed back to the room and dropped it on the table in the center of the room He walked over to Kylie on the bed and glanced at her sleeping so peacefully and calmly. His lips curled into a small smile before he even realized it,She really was beautiful and he could clearly see that. He monitored the slow, steady rise and fall of her chest, then the tiny movement her eyes made now and then,When his eyes finally reached down to her lips, his heart started to thump loudly. He could hear it, the way his breathing suddenly started becoming unsteady and the hairs at the ba
