A Little Like Fate のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 61 - チャプター 70

DELIA Hailey and I became quite distant from that day. I always saw her struggling to talk to Levi but he just wasn't giving her the vibes she wanted. She barely came to my office, I was the only one that visits her and she always gave me some kind of attitude. She stopped talking to me entirely and even stopped playing with Andrew. What sort of jealousy was that?I made it clear times without number that I wasn't trying to take Levi from her but Levi himself made things worse. He would always get gifts for me and Andrew, even though he had never touched him before. One day, I needed to run an errand for Levi and I didn't know anybody to keep Andrew with. Everybody was busy and he wouldn't just sleep. I had to beg her to stay in my office and watch him while I ran the errand. "Why can't I just go on the errand? Are you sure you're trying to help me win him over? All you're doing is standing in my way." She complained. "What more do you want me to do for you? Beg him on your behalf

LEVI I couldn't stop thinking about Delia after I left her. She had, once again, successfully wrapped me around her little finger. But she drew me close to her only for her to push me away. Or did I do something wrong? It was hard staying away from Andrew. Or did the father of the baby come back? Maybe I had really lost her to someone else this time. Once I entered my room, I checked my messages and saw her text. I frowned and deleted the message. Last month, my mother had introduced me to the daughter of one of her friends. No doubt the girl was heavily endowed but she wasn't my type. She was rude to those around her and spoke impolitely to her elders. She only respected her parents, my mom, and me, while others were like trash to her. Worst of it all, my mother didn't see her as that as she only put up the nice side. The girl, Fallon, got obsessed with me and began stalking my every move. She confronted every lady I had been with to restaurants to discuss business and she calle

DELIA "Are you seriously going to do this?" Devin asked me as I checked myself out in the mirror. "Do what? I'm going for an official meeting." I shrugged while adding the finishing touches to my makeup. "Besides, I can't let any woman outdo me, especially not that Hailey of a person. I need to remind her who's in charge." I smirked. I looked hot in my red, V-lined neck gown that hug my body, enunciating my heavy features. My red lipstick sparkled and my blonde hair wasn't left out. It was styled beautifully and I couldn't help but gush over myself. "Don't come crying to me," He sighed and walked out with Andrew. Part of me wanted to believe that Levi had changed but with the way Devin was hammering on it, I began to doubt my instincts. What if he was still the same and was just disguising? I shrugged all negative thoughts out of my head and had Devin drive me to the club after I was done. "This is a little bit too much, don't you think? Did you come with a sweater? You might ca

DELIA "How is he?" I asked, sniffing at the end of my question. Andrew was playing with my dress, chewing the buttons on it but I didn't bother. Javan looked at me and sighed. "Be honest with me, Javan. Don't think about lying because I will still find out." "The doctor said he might not make it out alive." He said with a deadpan expression. "There were lots of alcohol in his system. He is almost as good as dead." I sighed heavily as fresh tears rolled down my cheeks. "He can't do this to me. This is all my fault." I wept bitterly. "No, no, don't think like that. None of this is your fault. He was just reckless. We should just pray a miracle happens and he comes out alive." "I should have just called him after that night. He must have thought I was joking ot trying to play games with him. And you tell me not to blame myself?" I grabbed a tissue and blew into it. "It's not your fault. It's his fault for driving when drunk." He scoffed. "Don't worry about it." "What? I have al

LEVI "Thank you all so much. I feel so loved." I touched my chest in gratitude. Seeing my employees visiting me when I'm not well was something to be grateful for. It proved that I was a good boss to them and what better than having a good employer-employee relationship at a place of work? "Thank you very much. I really appreciate the gifts." "Get well soon, sir. We miss you a lot." One of them said. I didn't spot two significant in the crowd; Evans and Delia. I knew Evans hated me and was probably sulking somewhere because I was still alive but what I didn't understand was why Delia wouldn't come to see me. To be honest, she was the first person I was expecting to see. Was it that she didn't care if I died or not? Soon after the celebration of my coming back to life, everyone except Javan left. I sighed, I was hurt by her absence. Why was she bent on killing me? Why did I even bother waking up? "Delia made this," Javan stretched a bag toward me. I stared at it for some seconds b
