"It's as if someone intentionally did this. I really didn't send the goods to that mall, sir. I promise you." My secretary, Monique, spoke in terror as she stood by the other side of my table, her eyes down.  My nostrils flared, my blood boiling in anger. I knew she had done what I had asked her to do, but it was her job to ensure she monitored all the goods that were being moved around my malls. "Is this a joke? Do you wanna lose your job? This is gonna make us run at a loss! It's not just about the mix-up. You literally ordered thrice the goods we would normally order at South Dantry. The manufacturers won't accept them back after a week. What's this?" "N-No, sir." She finally looked me in the eye. Yes, she had tears in her eyes. She was definitely petrified. "I swear, I did it right. I also can't make our company lose million

I let out another heavy breath. Why had she come here? She still had the guts to face me, after embarrassing me on the day of my wedding? How audacious she was.  "Hi, Ivan." She stood in front of me, a smirk hanging on her lips.  "What do you want?" I asked in a low voice.  She glanced at Rae, rolled her eyes, and stepped closer. "Can you please tell that woman to leave? She'll invade our privacy?" "Excuse me?" Rae snorted. She ambled over to us, stood beside Tanya, a tiny frown on her facial feature. "Yes, it's fine if you wanna speak with him. It's none of my business. But, can you try to be a little bit nice?" "Hold it right there." With h

Like the tired and sleepy person I was, I rolled back and forth on the couch, debating with myself on whether or not it was time to wake up. I had had a crazy night, so it felt like I hadn't gotten enough sleep.  "Are you awake, ma'am?" The tiny voice coming from the side of the couch caught my attention. I opened my eyes a little, peeping through the small opening of the duvet which was over my body. Wait, who was that? Spotting a young, black woman in a casual sky blue dress, something like the maids' uniform, I pulled the duvet off my body swiftly, and sat up. "Oh, hi." I tried to fix my tousled hair, smiling like a confused monkey. I was definitely confused. "Do you need something? I'm… surprised to see you here." 

Rae°°°°° As I stared at myself through the mirror on the vanity table, I smiled, adoring how cute I looked. Though I seemed so happy, my heart and mind weren't at peace, at all. I was worried about Dale's loneliness, and at the same time, I was scared he could do something terrible. I knew for a fact that he wasn't patient, and that could absolutely be a big problem for us.  What would he do? Worst of all, I hadn't been able to speak to him long enough. That annoying freak walked into the balcony at the wrong time. Well, the only thing I was glad about was the fact that Ivan hadn't heard my full conversation with Dale. If he had, I'd be exposed.  "Now, you're on track." Dora grinned at me as soon as she was done wearing my jewelry. Now, this

Brenda glared as she pulled her arms around her chest. She snapped her neck in the direction of my car window, sulking so much, and tapping her feet against the floor of my car. Whenever she was super upset, this was how she behaved.    I let out a sigh, a sigh of surrender. "Alright then. I give up. Bad that you don't wanna come in, but I think I understand you."   "You think?!" She snapped, her eyes widened at me. "You're not married to a human! My refusal is valid. Literally, he embarrassed me so much. I just can't imagine going back into that place."   I giggled. This wasn't funny at all, but it just made me laugh. "Oh, sorry, sorry." I waved my hands at her to apologize for laughing, trying so much to hold back my laughter. "Okay, girl. I get you. A hundred percent
