One week had passed since Maverick Powell appeared to her, begging Daphne to come back to him. After seven days of waiting, Daphne was finally accepted as an English teacher in elementary school. Her hard work and eagerness paid off sweetly as she got a job at one of the elite schools in the city.It was her first day at work and, as excited as she was, she arrived at the school early in the morning to meet another teacher in the faculty room. With her bag in her hand, she pushed the door open and gazed at the unfamiliar crowd. Most of them were doing their own thing, while some were with another teacher having a conversation.No one noticed her coming inside, and because of this, Daphne decided to ask the teacher nearby to help her get situated inside. She headed toward the table next to where she was standing and asked a lady who looked like she was just her age."Um, hi, good morning! I’m Daphne. " She lifted her arms to the woman sporting red hair.However, to her dismay, the red-

Daphne Collins had already gotten the grasp of adjusting to her new job for the entire first week. The load of her work was not that heavy, and she still had time to prepare her lesson plan in advance. More so, her first-grader students didn’t give her a hard time adapting to the new school.To be honest, she was rather lucky. She landed a favorable job in her first work experience, where she could still do other things outside of school. Adding to this, her co-teacher, Stacy, was amiable and approachable, and she could ask her any time she needed clarification. Same as with other teachers in her department, Daphne was grateful that she could rely on them for things that were new or confusing to her.Apart from these things, the most important thing that made her really glad was that Daphne enjoyed teaching the kids and felt their warm welcome, accepting her quickly as their new English teacher. Although, despite this blooming passion she had discovered, there were still setbacks in h

“Get your hands off me, you fucking vause!” Thomas bellowed while struggling to get out of Nathan’s firm clutches.“Who’s this swank with ya, missy? Your sugar daddy?” The men behind Thomas jeered in laughter as they stepped closer to their leader.Nathan didn’t balk. He dug his fingers deeper against the branch of the gang leader’s neck and turned his shoulders to peek from his side. “Ah, so these guys are your sycophants? Ain’t I right?” He smirked deviously. “Shit, dude, your people looked like they’ll betray you any minute after I throw your ass in this goddamn building.”“You don’t fit here. Don't go meddle in other's business, wuss. Go back to your gold and shit!” Thomas’s nose flared. Lifting his arms, he grabbed Nathan’s wrist and shoved it away.Despite how facile Thomas could counter his attacks, Nathan didn’t shrink from him. He still stood tall in front of him, regardless of his towering heights. Thomas might be a few inches tall from Nathan, but it didn’t bother him.“The

"Is that so? You think I’m hot?" A silvery, thick, hoarse voice emerged before them. She knew that instant that it was Chuck’s uncle who was behind her all along, listening to their conversation. Daphne was caught off guard by him; she didn’t know how to face the man without looking like an utter idiot. Slowly, she turned around and was greeted by his serious, yet amusing, expression. Her body stiffened, and her ajar mouth locked when she noticed him walking closer to them, still staring at her like he had found out an interesting piece about her. The man was wearing his usual fitted suit and tie, which even stressed his regal and blue-blooded posture, which made her reaction worse.Nathan simpered as he approached them, his eyes transfixed on her while he strode to Chuck’s side. Leaning down to his nephew, he greeted apologetically, "Sorry, bud, I was late."Daphne couldn’t let his pompous smirk pass by, as she wanted to explain herself to the man. Moreover, she didn’t want him t

Kelly Holding wasn’t always as regnant as it was today. In the past, when the company was still one of the fledging businesses making its way to the market, Robert Kelly, Nathan’s father, had a hard time pervading the top market spot. Despite his efforts and acute vision for his company, he knew how hard it was to penetrate the top position in the market. However, that changed when Robert met Casper Smith. A well-known business magnate with more power than the government. He’s a man who had the touch of Midas’ hands where even the most shunned corporation could become a glorious business enterprise.Adamant about the notion of getting his business into the playing field, Robert asked for Casper Smith’s support. Despite this bankable aid from the god of business himself, Casper’s help came with a blowback cost. It was a consequence that Nathan’s father didn’t ascertain, not until he came down to his last breath.And now Nathan had to face this conniving man again. The man who had bec
