MARAWhen Jayson left for work, I went up to Grandpa's room. I smiled when I saw Irene checking his vitals. "Good morning, Irene. How's Grandpa? Where did you sleep last night? I found Jayson sleeping here earlier.""Good morning, Mara. Sir Phils, all vitals are normal. He is away from danger now. The only thing that he needs to do is to open his eyes. And about where I sleep last night. Mr. Fernandez came here last night and told me to sleep in one of the guest rooms and Sir Phil's room if he wasn't around.""Okay, you go downstairs and eat your breakfast. I'll watch Grandpa while you eat.""Okay, thank you. I'll be quick.""No, take your time. I have nothing to do anyway.""Okay, I'll return as soon as I finish eating." I nodded my head, and she quickly left the room. I went to my room and took my manicure set, and went back to Grandpa's room.I pulled a chair beside his bed and settled do

MARA"Sorry." He whispered after a few minutes of uncomfortable silence passed between us. He kissed my head before he rolled down beside me and pulled me into his embrace. I buried my heated face in his chest, don't want to look at him. "Hmm!!! I clutched his top when he tried to distance himself away from me. I don't want him to see my blushing face. I'm so embarrassed because of what happened. With a kiss from him, I quickly have forgotten everything, only the feel of his kiss on my lips."I think you need to close your top." He whispered. I think all my blood went up on my face. I quickly rolled away from him and hurriedly closed my top.After that, I stayed on my side of the bed, not moving like a statue with my face buried in my pillow, but I stiffened when his arm wrapped around my waist, and I suddenly felt his body pressed on my back, and he buried his face in my neck."Jayson!! I wiggled from his hold, but he pulled me closer and kissed my neck, up to my ear. "Yah!! You sai

MARA"You are the most beautiful in my eyes. Stop being insecure and do your work, or Camille will devour you later." He said, chuckling. I scoffed but went out of his office after he planted a kiss on my forehead.Camille's eyes were on me instantly. She was on my table glaring at me."What took you so long?""Mr. Fernandez just told me the do's and didn't in here, and he told me he doesn't want any mistakes because any mistake can hinder the business. He told me he doesn't like a flirty secretary. He likes his secretary to be efficient and has initiative.""Better he told you. I don't need to tell you about that. Now start your work.""Yes, Ma'am," I replied and settled on my seat. I was relieved when she returned to her office because I felt like the hair on my body stood up when she was near me. I picked up the first folder and started my work. Camille didn't even introduce me to my colleagues, but I don't mind because the four others are snobs, like the head secretary.At lunchti

MARAI knocked on his door, and he quickly replied to come in. I pushed the door opened and walked inside, closing the door behind me."Lock the door, Mrs. Fernandez." I rolled my eyes and locked the door. He always called me Mrs. Fernandez when we were alone."What did I do this time, sir?" I asked."Come here." He motioned me to come closer to him, holding some documents. I went to him and stood beside him."You are the one who did this?" He asked, showing me some files. It was a document of a particular project that needed his approval, but I'm not the one who did it. Camille didn't assign me to do that kind of important document. The work she always gives me is to do a copy of some documents, not only one but lots of them that my finger hurts so much after. Segregate the files or checks Mr. Fernandez's schedule."I didn't do that. Why, what's wrong with it?""The budget listed here is higher than we agreed in the mee

MARAI joined lunch with my father and Amy, and my father was right. She is very caring towards my father. I kept giggling, which embarrassed my father every time became very sweet to him. Amy seems the woman who loves to show public affection, and they both look adorable.After lunch, I bid goodbye to them and went to the office. I arrived in front of the building around two in the afternoon, and as soon as I stepped inside the building, all eyes were on me, but I ignored them. I think what happened yesterday everyone already knows.I went straight to the elevator, and I'm thankful that I am alone, but it doesn't last because before the elevator closed a hand stopped it from closing and when I saw the face of the person my eyes widen to see who was it."So the rumors are true," Jared said and stepped inside the elevator. I ignored him. I don't want any connection with this guy anymore. He is not the Jared that I loved before. This person is
