LOGINChapter 103 — The Wrong Person/Maya had barely set her bag down when Daniel asked her to come to his office. She had been hoping to get a few minutes to check her emails and prepare for the day, but the look on his face told her the problem with the missing proposal had not gone away. The bouquet was still on her desk, pink and white roses with no card or name.“Please, sit down,” Daniel said.“Have they found the proposal?”“Not yet. IT is still checking the access records.”“Then you know someone moved it after I left yesterday.” Daniel looked at her for a moment. “The records show that the folder was accessed through your account.” Her stomach tightened. “That doesn't mean I was the one who accessed it.”“Your login was used.”“I logged out before I left.”“The proposal contains private information about a major deal. It was sent outside the company. I can't ignore that.”“Find out who did it. Someone used my account after I left. Check the time.” Daniel glanced at the papers on h
Chapter 102— The Missing FileMaya arrived at the office earlier than usual the next morning. She had barely slept, partly because she kept thinking about her first day and partly because she was still trying to understand why Jake had been so quiet after their short conversation. She pushed those thoughts aside as she walked towards her desk, but stopped when she noticed a large bouquet of flowers sitting on it.She looked around, wondering if someone had made a mistake. The bouquet was beautiful, filled with pink and white roses, with a few smaller flowers arranged around them. She stepped closer and searched for a card, but there was none. No name, no message, nothing to tell her who had sent them."Well, look at that." Maya turned and found one of her coworkers smiling at her."Someone is trying to impress you," the woman said. Maya laughed lightly. "I don't even know who they're from.""That's the interesting part. No card?" She shook her head. "Nothing." Lauren walked past just
Chapter 101 - let her fightThe loud knocking on his bedroom door pulled Matt out of sleep. He groaned and turned to the other side, hoping whoever was outside would get tired and leave. But the knocking continued, followed by a familiar voice. "Matt! Open this damn door! You useless child" He opened one eye and glanced at the clock. It was barely eight in the morning. Who the hell was disturbing his sleep at this hour?He turned his head and found two women lying beside him, still asleep under the sheets. Their clothes were scattered across the floor, and the smell of alcohol from the previous night hung in the room. He rubbed his face and dragged himself out of bed. He pulled on his trousers and walked towards the door, already annoyed."What?" he asked as he opened it. His father's face greeted him. He looked past Matt into the room, and his expression changed immediately."What the hell is this?" Matt followed his gaze and shrugged. "You can see for yourself.""Are you out of your
Chapter 100- fair enough Chloe stepped out of the lecture hall with her bag hanging from one shoulder. She was tired and already thinking about getting home when she spotted a familiar face across the courtyard. Her steps slowed. It was her ex boyfriend. He was standing near the parking area with a girl Chloe had never seen before. At first, she didn't think much of it. Maybe she was a friend. Maybe they had just run into each other. But then he leaned closer, brushed a strand of hair away from the girl's face and kissed her forehead.Chloe stopped walking. For a moment, she simply stared at them, waiting for someone to explain what she was seeing. But no one did. Her ex boyfriend smiled at the girl, held her hand and said something that made her laugh. He looked happy. More relaxed than he had been with Chloe in weeks. Her stomach tightened. How had she not seen it before? The cancelled dates, the sudden excuses, the phone calls he always had to take somewhere private. Every time s
chapter 99- James Allison slammed the car door shut and gripped the steering wheel. She had just left Ryan's house, and the look on Emma's face kept playing in her mind. For once, her younger sister hadn't backed down. She had actually told her to leave. Allison let out an angry breath and hit the steering wheel with her palm. "Stupid girl."She had gone there expecting Emma to apologise, maybe even beg her to give her another chance. Instead, Emma had stood there acting as if she had every right to be with Ryan. Allison couldn't believe how much things had changed. Ryan was supposed to be hers. Emma was only meant to be a temporary arrangement, someone he was pretending to date. How had her little sister managed to turn it into something more?She picked up her phone and opened Matt's contact. She had been calling him for days, but he still wasn't answering. She tried again, holding the phone to her ear as it rang. After several seconds, the call went to voicemail. Allison dropped
chapter 98- you don't understand Ryan's words hung between them. Emma stood beside the bed, still wearing the dress he had bought for her. A few minutes ago, she had been smiling and thanking him. Now, she didn't know what to say. He had feelings for her. Not as his fake fiancée. Not because they had agreed to act like a couple. He meant it."Emma?"She looked down at her hands. "I care about you too, Ryan." His expression softened, but before he could say anything, she continued. "I really do. And these past few weeks have meant a lot to me. The time we've spent together, the way you've treated me, the kisses..." She paused, struggling to find the right words. "They don't feel fake to me anymore."Ryan took a small step closer. "Then what's wrong?""That's the problem." She finally looked at him. "I don't know what any of this means. We started this arrangement pretending to be together. We agreed to certain things, and somewhere along the way, everything became different. I'm scare
