BRIELLE POV“Lizzy and Brielle, meet my son, Mateo Caldwell” Davis said proudly“Unfortunately he's late as he didn't seem to honour my wishes to arrive on time” he quickly glared at Mateo“Im sorry father, I was caught up with work and traffic, at least I'm here now” He said as he sat do“It's very nice to meet you, you look so much like your father” Mom saidAnd she was right, there was a striking resemblance between Mateo and his father, the shiny black hair, the strong jawline, and similar facial features.“It's a pleasure meeting you and….” his attention turned to me“Brielle, my name is Brielle” I quickly said before he gave away the fact that we knew each otherMy best friend is going to have a field day when I tell her about everything that's happened.“Brielle, nice to meet you” my name rolled off his tongue slowly and it instantly irritated me, I had no appetite for dinner again.I was so annoyed that I was going to get up and go outside but my mom told me that it was rude t

MATEO POVOf all the people to meet, I had never expected in my wildest dreams to meet her.When my dad had told me he had engaged the woman he had been seeing for the past few months, I was upset.How could he just make his decision to spend the rest of his life with a person he met in less than a year? I had thought nothing of his fiancee but a gold digger.Then he told me that his fiancee was coming over for dinner to his place for the first time and I had to be there. I planned to get rid of the woman and expose her as a gold digger to my dad but I got shocked instead.Of all the women he could have met, it just had to be the mother of the one girl I couldn't get her name off my head for the past eight years.I instantly recognized her the moment I set my eyes on her, her facial features had barely changed but everything else did.I used to remember her as the cute chubby hazel jaded eye girl whenever I thought of her, but now she was more grown up, slim and more fierce looking.I

I sat on edge on my seat waiting for his response“Im sorry, I want to keep my private life a secret and I'm sure she wouldn't like her name out in public”I heaved a sigh of relief, thank goodness. I was sweating thinking about how reporters were going to be storming out on my door the next hour asking dumb questions and invading my privacy.I was about to call my mom on the phone and just then she walks in through the front door“I was just about to call you” I said“Yeah, I’m here now, how have you been?” She asked“I’ve barely been seeing you mom, you just can’t wait to move in with your lover, can you?” I teased her“Oh shut up and stop teasing your mother” She blushed“Have you watched this?” I showed her the tv where Davis and the host were now talking about business issues.“Oh yeah, I was watching it on my car drive home”“I was so scared he was going to reveal our names” I said“Of course not, Davis likes to keep his personal life a secret and I cautioned him beforehand as w

BRIELLE POVDavis called me aside and I just knew something was off.“Listen Brielle, I know you and Mateo are not the best of friends” He started..He knew, he knew about our past. But how did he find out? Did Mateo inform him?“If you actually do know our past, you’d know we’re nothing near friendship” I said crossing my arms on my chest.I didn’t care if I might be rude right now, I just had a feeling that I wouldn’t like where this conversation was heading.He sighed then continued “yes I’m sorry, you two are more like ex enemies right now and I’m aware it’s Mateo’s fault, he hurt you and I apologize on behalf of his past mistakes”I sighed, this was going to be a long hard conversation“Listen Mr Caldwell, there’s no need to apologise on his behalf, I’ve already forgiven him and hold no grudge against him, if you’re asking for us to become close like friends or sibling, I’m afraid that won’t be possible” I lied.“No, id never ask you to compromise for my sake, all im asking is th

BRIELLE POVIt's been four days since I started working for Mateo, I still haven't gotten used to working for him at all.This job was draining me.Sometimes he can be very demanding and expect me to be on his beck and call around the clock. It was very draining.He was also calm. When I wasn't able to understand his requests, he explained them to me calmly. I wasn't expecting this, I had expected him to be more of the evil boss like in movies.Maybe his plan was to be nice to me at the beginning and reveal his true colours later on.He probably wants to convince me more into staying at this job so it would be too late to leave, that had to be his plan because I had no excuse for his behavior.I had just finished working and clearing out his schedule for the weekend as he asked, we were now on lunch break.I usually don't eat at the company's cafeteria as I wasn't really interested in meeting the other people. Especially after meeting Olivia.I wanted coffee and we had a coffee maker
