Winston's request
★★★ “It is an utter bilge, William!” Winston remarked as soon William closed the library room door. Winston went to the liquor cabinet and poured himself a whiskey. Although Winston was been there at the breakfast table, he did not eat a crumb. “Bilge! Are you referring to my marriage or the reaction that Katherine's father would have had when he learned of my marriage?” William answered while seated in his favorite spot, which was generally where he spends time reading. “I am alluding to the unreasonable action you conducted without telling me about it," Winston spun around, the whisky swiveled in his glass causing some spill on the floor, at that moment, a hint of dullness flickered through his stares. “Have you thought that your father might not agree to your chosen marriage? I could not be happier that my son has found the love of his life. I have always believed Katherine was the one,” Winston finished his drink after his words. “Yes, since the ordinary person makes our fami

She was envious
★★★★ “Pardon me! Though I've been thinking about you the entire time, I promise that things took me to the edge so terribly that I couldn't find time to reach out to you," Monica responded to her belligerent and irrational closest friend who was in the mood for fighting. “What kind of work you are busy with? Let me hear it first!" Jessica asked, her voice worried as she tried to know if Monica was in a safe place. “I am in Edinburgh per my boss's request, but I have no idea when this will be finished. I thus have no notion when I will return!” Monica finally let her voice trail off, expressing her sorrow at not having a close friend or relative to talk to. “Are you all right? Look, you do not have to work for that company. Liam can recommend a better firm for the work," Jessica offered with a hopeful tone that Monica listen to her since Jessica was experiencing unknown fear for Monica as if she were in peril and alone. “Jess, I am perfect! I am aware that Liam can find me a bet

The invisible wound
★★★"Does it make a difference to you?"William murmured as he cast a foggy glance down at Monica. His heart palpitation increased when he saw her standing in his shirt. It was as if his eyes were forced to immortalize her beauty in them, to glorify it every time this shirt would appear in his sight.“Since we are husband and wife, even if it is fictitious, I would want to have my husband's support; if it is too much for you to accomplish, I would like you to refrain from allowing them to insult me."Monica said, immersed in his deep blue eyes where the wave met the warm coast.William's hand curled around Monica's waist and drew her close to his chest, driving her heart to sprint as his breath smashed on her lips."Have I not been there for you at breakfast?" William inquired.“Y-You did!"“ Since you have acknowledged we are husband and wife, I would try to listen to your tiny request, but you also have to hear me now," William's vision clouded and his nerves stretched tense

A Vicious plan against Monica
★★★ “What's the matter? Has the Cat got your tongue?” Katherine irritably stated, seeing Martina not finishing what she had begun, piqued her curiosity. Martina signaled to Katherine with her eyes on the doctor who was treating her hand, and Martina realized that distributing information to an unknown person could have had far-reaching effects in the future, so she restrained herself from speaking. “Has your treatment come to an end? Tell me I will get to see my hand as before in one day!” Katherine inquired of the doctor, who was putting a gel-like solution to her fingers with delicate hands. After examining Kathrine, the physician stated, "Pardon me, but since your fingers burned so badly, it is not possible to get them back to normal in a single day." “If you are unable to accomplish the possible, then you are worthless. Leave now!" With disgusted eyes, Katherine withdrew her hand from the doctor and flung some cash into his face, insulting him in a way that left him with lit

Monica gave him a cold shoulder
★★★“How fortunate I am to have you in my office, Mr. Mackenzie. Why didn't you ask me over instead of exhausting yourself?"Hanson exclaimed excitedly as he stood in front of his desk, while William and Monica sat in the chairs. They both had an upright demeanor which drove the man to spooky feelings as he wondered what calamity William was trying to convey to him since he had never been given notice regarding a visit from William Mackenzie and his abrupt arrival always resulted in a dangerous price.“When I am the one in need of your assistance, asking you to come to my place would not be appropriate behavior," William cracked a smile and replied, "Please, Mr. Hanson, be at ease."“Yes, sir!" Hanson nodded his head ignoring the sweat on his brow as he sat in his seat, but he was unable to avoid feeling uneasy.“She is Monica and I want you to give her a place among the models in your company,” William said to Hanson, who gave the girl a quick glance and started to examine her.

Kickass Monica
★★★ It was an opulent place. To Monica's unaided eyes, each minuscule fragment displayed an exquisite design, seemingly crafted with meticulous attention to detail. “I apologize for the inquiry, but I sense that your company is well-known among the public. I haven't had time to look it up," since she was a reporter and had always asked straight questions to people to get things out of them, Monica inquired Hanson without hesitation. “It is quite difficult for me to adequately put into words how prominent my company is, but I can assure you that it is at the top of the global list of modeling companies," Hanson stated, his voice full of pride as he informed Monica that she had joined a large organization where individuals battled for opportunities. “Let me tell you I did not doubt about that especially since William brought me here,” Monica said as she arrived at an exclusive empty stage, a place for a walk. "I hope you do not mind the next question that I have been thinking very l

The friend
★★"Boss, I was surprised to hear your call. Is everything okay? Are you disturbed by the same old crap again?"A tall and sturdy guy bowed his head to William, as if the god for him was William, given the devotion he offered.“No, that matter cannot raise its head after the way you snapped their bones. A little help I am looking for. Furthermore, you are the only one I can rely on!" William said as he lightly patted his shoulder.“Any cogent matter!" With a serious tone, the man raised his head and asked William. He was on leave after their last project together, but William's unexpected call led him to suspect there was something serious going on.“Umm! I married," William replied, recalling Monica, who had frustrated him with the way she behaved. There had been no call or text from her until now, although she knew there was nothing she could do without his assistance.“uh-huh! You are not in the news," the man inquired, a little curious because William Mackenzie had done some

William did not like the sight
★★ “You are asking me to help her! Who is she to you?” Mark spoke with a distasteful expression as his gaze followed Monica, who was touching objects in his room without his permission. “Does it matter to you, Mark!” Hanson irritatingly muttered to the irrelevant Mark kept repeating. “You don't have any prior experience walking or conducting promotions for brands. Tell me not to assume that you are attempting to impress your fiancé’s family by modeling,” Mark made this casual statement while sitting on a couch and lighting a cigarette. “I must regretfully concur with your response if my explanation is so important for you to know. I do have to win over a family,” Monica responded to the pompous man impatiently who was continuously wasting her time with meaningless discussions. “Pathetic!" Mark remarked. Hanson, who was waiting for them, spoke softly because both of them were important to him, but nothing happened until now. He had no choice but to intervene. "It would be better

They fought again
★★★“Finished what? I have not yet begun, and I've told you to leave the car because you know you will have difficulties picking me up. In addition, I can be late at times, so asking you to come pick me up would be inappropriate," Monica responded properly, staring at William in perplexity, because she did not expect him to come to pick her up rather than send his guys.William's face strained for some reason as if he expected her to realize he was trying to be good to her, but she did not want to view the sight, which disappointed him, as he said."You will have your car starting tomorrow. I do not need to trouble myself with such frivolity. Let's go since I'm here today."“Before I leave, I should meet Hanson, who had gone to make a phone call. If he doesn't find me, he will panic," Monica explained.“Is he more important than me?" Saying unpleasantly, William glared at Monica, who had furrowed her brows in confusion and was clearly bewildered about the nature of the question.

The gesture William did not despise
★★★“Let me explain. I am not here to argue with you. I married you because, deep down, I believed that I could win you back as my Ben. But there is an error in my judgment. I acknowledge that sometimes things are beyond our control, and for that reason, I have come to terms with the fact that I shouldn't engage in such foolish things with you. However, as long as our contract is in effect, I think we should not argue because you need me for whatever plan you have in mind,” Monica stated, after soothing her jittery feelings by placing the edge of the coffee cup on her lips, "It is better to be friends than fight like an arch adversary!"William paid close attention to what she said, but he felt as though something very personal had gone absent from him. He was not sure what had exactly vanished, but the feeling was hard and hollow.“I agree that it would be preferable if we did not irritate one another,” William spoke as he observed Monica holding her burger in front of her lips an
