Charlotte’s pov

“Do you have an appointment?”

“No.” My voice dropped. “But it’s Miss Charlotte. He’ll want to see me.”

The nurse gave me a strange look before picking up the phone to dial out. She spoke in a hushed tone before hanging up and looking at me.

"You can go see him now. Last door at the end of the right corridor."

“Thank you.” I smiled.

I walked through the halls and stopped at his door. With a deep breath, I knocked and waited for a reply.

“Come in,” his voice said.

I walked inside and smiled.

He was seated behind his desk and deep in work. He looked up and saw me as he raised a brow.

“Well, well,” he said. “Charlotte. This is a surprise.”

“I’m full of surprises,” I told him as I walked in and sat down across from him.

“What are you doing here?” he asked. “Isn’t Edward away?”

“Yes, he is,” I said, crossing one leg over the other. “But I’m not here about him.”

“Okay, what are you here for?”

“It’s about myself,” I replied. “And a slight difficulty I have.”

    Edward’s povI watched the accident before me almost happen as I wanted to jump in to save them. But then George held me back.“The security has it under control,” he said as I looked at the car before me. The driver recovered quickly and drove away as I heard my name from the car.“Who did you give your middle name to?” He laughed as I stared after the moving car.“A special someone,” I said with something fluttering in my chest.I looked at him and nodded. “Let’s go,” I said as he nodded and we walked away.I soon finished with the school and its meetings, which, to be honest, were boring me to death, and headed home.The moment I got out of the car, Bryan appeared like he had been waiting for me. He bowed, and my eyes immediately shot to the files in his hands.“Can we do this later?” I asked. “I can’t keep this up. I need rest.”“Certainly sir. I’ll push your schedule for later.”I nodded and walked with him as we entered the house. My butler got me a drink of water as I gulped

    Edward’s povI stared at the little girl and chuckled a bit.“Timothy,” I smiled, reaching to shake her. Timothy was my middle name. There was no need to give this little girl my main name anyway. I barely used Timothy except for strangers I didn’t want to know about me. “Selena, huh. That’s a very nice name.”“Thank you,” she smiled as she looked at the biscuits and handed me one. “You look sad. Why don’t you… You eat my biscuits?”I smiled and shook my head. “No. It’s yours.”Hearing her talk like that in her cute little voice made me smile. She was really good with her words. Clear too.I spoke with her for a few minutes and got something out of her. From what I could tell, she was really smart and very clever.I had met with a few three to four-year-olds and she was the smartest one I had encountered. If not for how small she looked, one could mistake her for a seven or even eight-year-old. And a smart one at that.Now I was intrigued to know the parents of this child.“Where are

    Edward’s povI sat in my office drinking a bottle of one of my expensive drinks when the door opened after a quick knock.It was a board member.“What do you want?” I swirled my drink as the ice fell apart in the glass.“I’m here to see if you are still showing up for the board meeting,” he said as I groaned and shook my head.This was frustrating. Knowing that I had to deal with him as a person right now.“How about we deal with this later?” I said with a small smile.“As much as I would love to let you stay here and relax, we have so many things to do. We can’t just let this go. We need you for the meeting so that we can discuss the next step to take. We have to meet some investors who would love to step into our company. We need to check the staff and maybe hire more. This is a seven-star hotel. It needs the best of the best. We can’t do anything without investors.”I dropped my cup on the table with a bang as some amber liquid splashed out on the leather top.I was so mad I could

    Eloise’s povThe moment the door closed, I started to pack up my things.“Where are you going?” Sandra asked as I looked at her.“Out of here.”“Why?” She asked. “Did anything happen? Did he threaten you?”“You can drop the act now Sandra,” I said with a stern voice. “I know you all are in on this. It’s Edward. I know him. You all work for him so it means you all are in on his plan to make it look like he didn’t hire you all to make me feel cozy and let down my guard while he slithers in to try to cut me down.”She looked confused. “What are you talking about? Did you know Sir Edward before?”I sighed. I didn’t know whether to believe that he was genuinely confused or if she was playing me this whole time.All I knew was that I needed to be out here and be on my way home. I had to call my lawyer.She needed to help me understand what was going on. It was that or I was screwed. I wasn’t going to be screwed for any reason.Picking up my bag, I looked at a confused Sandra. “I have to get

    Edward’s povBeing in the same room with her made my heart thump in ways I didn’t expect it to. She was just in my grasp.Everything around me stopped. The only thing before us was the table and the food on it which, to be honest, I couldn’t wait to taste.Yet I wondered what she would do now. Would she leave without a care in the world? Or would she act like nothing happened between us?“Eloise,” I said as she looked at me wide-eyed like I was a ghost.“Umm…” she muttered as she blinked hard multiple times before looking down at the food.She looked around to see the other helpers and her assistant before looking back at me.“Excuse me,” she said before walking out of the kitchen.People started to murmur. They were confused about what had happened.The awkward stares between us had been a lot. No one was blind to not notice that.“Sir,” Bryan whispered to me. “What do we do?”I sighed and nodded. “I’ll be back.”“What?”But before he could ask me what I meant by that, I turned and w

    Edward’s povI stood on the balcony as my assistant Bryan parked his car in the courtyard and walked up the stairs.I heard thumps before he appeared behind me.“Good morning sir,” he said as I turned to look at him.“Well, you’re up early. What’s got you in a hurry?”I sipped my drink as he nodded, “The new workers have been incorporated into the company. So that means that you need to talk to some of them. A special chef, Camille, is showing up today for the taste test.”“Does she know who I am?” I asked, a bit worried that the moment she would get wind of me, she would leave.”“No. She doesn’t know who you are yet. But if you show up today, she will know you.”I turned back to the balcony to look into the horizon. I didn’t want this to be too much on me or her. I just wanted her to know me as a nice person. I hated stringing people along. I wanted her to know I had changed. I coughed, and my cup shatteredingly fell to the ground.“Sir!” Bryan yelled as I held a hand to stop him f
