Cat Got Your Tongue?

A day later, Ella and Eve parked their car in the same spot that they did the previous day. They both had a veil and thick sunglasses on their eyes and their gazes were fixated on the entrance of the company. “How did you get in yesterday?” Ella couldn’t help but ask about the tight security of the company. “By using the pass father gave me.”“They’re not going to question our attire?”“They won’t. They wouldn’t dare question people sent by their boss. Come on, let’s leave. Is everything ready?”“Never been more ready. Although, yesterday, I almost lost the envelope.”Eve’s eyes widened and her head whipped to Ella. “What? Where is it now?”“Relax,” Ella laughed. “I found it at the bottom of Liam’s passenger’s seat after finding it for minutes. It’s a miracle.” If Liam hadn’t sighted the envelope under her chair and picked it up for her, she wondered what she’d have done considering that the success of the operation lies in it. Eve would’ve nagged her to death. Eve let out a breath

Tiala Gumeris

Eve’s anger burned over. The room suddenly became twice as cold as usual from the glare that the two parties passed each other. She slammed her hand on the table and rose, her eyes glaring daggers at the girl. “No, you didn’t get deceived. You deceived us and we’re here to have you pay for it.”“Wait.” Genevieve chuckled but there was no hint of amusement on her face. She had a panicked expression as she shook her head from side to side. “You mean that everything was a lie? That you’re not on the same page as me? Yesterday you told me.”“Yeah yeah, I deceived you. But that was little compared to the lie that you told. Unfortunately for you, you’ve been busted. Right there is the proof that you fixed your face to look like my father’s and of course, you have someone behind you, directing you and ordering you around like a fucking puppet.”“I’m not a puppet,” the girl screamed. “I told you I’m not a puppet and you’re lying. I’d never fix my face…”Ella cut her off. “I think it’s high ti

Get It Done Or You’re Done

FLASHBACKJust an hour after Eve got out of the Gray corporation, Tiala paced around the office, her perfectly manicured nails in between her teeth as she tried to think of Eve’s words. On one hand, she was happy that Eve would make her mission easier for her but on the other hand, she couldn’t bring herself to trust the girl fully and agree to the truce. But she had to. Mainly because she had barely two weeks to finalize everything and leave. A gasp escaped her lips when the door of her office flung open abruptly and closed with a bag, a slightly shorter slim woman stepping in. Tiala gasped when she realized who it was.“Wh…why are you doing here, Melissa?” She gasped. With annoyance, Melissa tore her scarf and glasses off her and threw them to one of the couches. Afterward, she walked closer until she stood before Tiala. “Why the fuck you didn’t ask that lowlife secretary of yours to let me in whenever I get here?”“I…I’m sorry, boss.” Her head lowered and she found her fingers cu

You’ll Rot In Jail

“Me…me…Melissa?” Tiala faked a gasp of surprise and stepped backward away from both girls. “I don't know what you're saying. I don't know who Melissa is.” She might get killed after this by Melissa but she still had a little faith that Melissa would put things into place and come to save her. Her boss, she knew, was the expert at scheming and drawing out plans. She prayed to the heavens that Melissa would be able to save her now.“You think Melissa will save you by hiding who she is? I told you we have a train of police officers outside and nothing you do will be able to stop them from taking you away.”“They can't take me away. I did nothing.”“Then lure Melissa here. Lure her here and you might receive lighter punishment from the court.”The girl’s body was trembling all over. Her legs were threatening to give away underneath her and she was holding herself so badly from peeing her pants from the fear that enveloped her. She never planned to return to prison after everything that s

Eve Is Pregnant

“If you’d brought her in any later than you did, we would be telling another story by now.” All six eyes peered keenly at the doctor as he began, their expressions filled with concern and worry. On both sides of Eve in the hospital room were Noah and Ella and they both shared the same look of worry on their faces. The middle-aged doctor continued. “For now, Mrs Hank and the baby are fine but you must watch and avoid situations that might put the baby in danger. Congratulations on your pregnancy once again.”Eve let out a loud sigh of relief once the doctor was done with his words, a smile spreading on her lips afterward as she glanced at Noah. They shared a smile, his hands caressing her hair gently.“We're going to have a baby, hubby.”“Fuck we are. I guess my hard work paid off then.” He leaned in and pecked her forehead before rising from the chair. “I'll go with the doctor and sort things out, okay? You'll be fine, right?”“En.”His eyes darted downward to her flat stomach and he

Epilogue

EPILOGUE FIVE MONTHS AFTERNo one had informed Genevieve that being surrounded by loved ones on a special awaited day would be so satisfying. They say that it takes a village to raise a child and if there was one thing that she was sure about was that her baby sure had a city. There were tons of people who loved her to death. Noah, her papa, her mother-in-law, Ella, her new friends, and a whole lot of people. She wouldn’t trade their love for anything else in the world. Staring at herself in the mirror, Eve let out a sigh, an emotional yet relieving sigh. How did her life become this great? With the baby in her, it was all rainbows and smiles. “Darling, you ready?”She looked behind her at the voice of her husband who’d just walked into the room. She rose from the chair and at the sight of her dress and makeup, Noah’s lips curled into a charming smile. He strode toward her and pulled her into his embrace. “What? You look stunning, baby.”“Thank you. Is everyone ready? Should we g
