Lahat ng Kabanata ng MISS ICE MEETS MR ARROGANT: Kabanata 21 - Kabanata 29

River's POVYesterday's session with the therapist was amazing, he was professional, compassionate and knowledgeable. I even had to disclose to him that I had ran into Jake at the wine shop. He advised I stay away from him till I was able to clearly sort out the residue emotions I still had for him else he would manipulate and bend me to his will.As much as I had wanted to deny and claim that I was too healed for that, my reaction to seeing him at the door told me otherwise. A part of me still had feelings for him and I needed to deal with it.This morning I woke up by 4’00am sharp to start preparing what I was to present at the meeting today. Mr Brown had sent me template on how to structure my report, he was extremely pleased with my outcome at the court.Unlike that silly Dante, who seemed mildly impressed. Now standing in front of the mirror I adjusted my navel blue blazer which I pair with matching office palazzo pants. I wore a cream camisole inside and paired the whole looked

River's POVI had wanted to drive to the little cafe spot Tessa had suggested we go to but she insisted it was just a few blocks away and a walk would help clear my head.We walked about a block then a small cute restaurant came into view. The smell of hot coffee with cinnamon buns waffed around my nose and I immediately worked up an appetite.We entered inside the cute cafe a few persons were already there but spotted an empty table by the window. It looked like the perfect Pinterest background but we weren't here for pictures anyways.“Hi welcome, my name is Amara.” A young waiter approached us, I could tell she was new,it made me smile. She looked about sixteen.“Oh hi, I'll have a latte and two cinnamon buns.” Tessa said warmly.“Make that for two.” “Okay, so you'll have them here or to go?” “We'll have them here, we'll be seated at the table by the window.” Tessa said.“I'll be right out with your orders.” She nodded and went to the counter.We sat at the table, and in as much

River's Pov I don't even know for how long I had my head on my desk sleeping. All I know is when I opened my eyes I saw it was fully mid day. I yawned and stretched my body slightly aching from sleeping in an uncomfortable position for hours. Sitting up straight I picked my cell phone from the table and turned it on, it was still on Jake's page angrily I swiped it away. Leaving the app with an irritated hiss, I decided to distract myself by watching some random YouTube videos to distract myself. I wasn't going to let my mind idle away into feeling sad about a man who I shouldn't give two shits about, all I needed was to keep my mind busy and active. I tapped the icon and started watching a random video of how to make ice cream and you know how the algorithm works. The app recommended video after, video and before you know I was an hour fully invested in random stuff. My phone beeped with a notification, I pulled down the top bar only to see it was Jake who sent me a friend reque

River's Pov I decided to take my flowers to my car, I deserve a fucking early day. Seeing Jake up close again was emotional roller coaster, and man was I drained.At least something interesting was happening, a whole new different admirer. Not that I lacked male attention but I was romantically bored and the fact that it was a office romance was interesting and safe.My therapist had advised I stay away from romance right now, but a little date never hurts anyone. I was going to go out tomorrow evening, I'm not going to let my experience with Jake spoil my love life.As I got to the lobby I saw an unexpected person, Dante also seemed to have the plan of leaving the office early. I pretended to not see him and kept my face straight up, he seemed to be staring but what was my business with that.By the way his ex girlfriend was back and they're probably going to get back together. I wasn't up for the tangled mess of emotions that came with messing around with him.I busied myself makin

River's POVI woke up to the sound of incessant pounding on my door, I looked over at Sammantha who had fallen fast asleep on the couch. “Samantha.” I called but she just gave a sleepy response, I rolled my eyes slightly irritated at what a sound sleeper she was.The pounding continues, my heart skips a beat as I turn to see the time. Who the heck would be pounding on someones door by 3:am in the morning!Could it be buglar or something? I wouldn't be surprised he got past the lazy security man downstairs. I tired to ignore it but if wouldn't ceaseThinking of what to use to protect myself, I remembered we have a baseball bat in the kitchen. I tip towed there and took the bat.I approached the door turning the key ready to swing at the intruder. The moment I opened the door I swung blindly hoping to catch the intruder at surprise.But the man could think fast, he held the bat. I opened my eyes, to see the most perplexing sight.Dante was standing at my front door holding the bat, he
