I stood, flummoxed at his words, and entirely numb to the world.The sound of running water spilled into my ears, making me regain consciousness before swerving to the side to face him.He close the faucet, then dub his wet palms with some tissue, shrugging at me like he didn't just spewed nonsense."We expected too much.."my second sighs solemnly within me and I huffed.Maybe if she stops talking to me, all would be well!Maybe if I bring myself out of my delusions that someone was speaking to me, all would be well!I pulled at my hair, breathing in devastation before deciding to leave the room but his wet hand tugged me back by my arm."You have to develop a soul.." he was a flick away from me.He held his eyes steady in mine as if he were chanting an incantation.I was having a hard time staring at him too close like this, a stream of coldness seeping into my veins."You are not sure of yourself, or are you?If you want to fight against people, you have to have a clear stand by own

Angela...I was too late, as usual. Mother was always a step ahead of me.I plop on the bed. How did she found out that such document even exists?Too tired to start tearing up or hurt my brain with thoughts of how I hate her, I just fell asleep.The next day, I woke up to my mysterious phone ringing.I picked the call, hesitantly."Am I speaking with miss Wilson?" A male voice penetrates out of the phones speaker."Hm.""I am barrister Collins. I was your father's lawyer when he was alive and-""So why are you calling now after all these years?" I didn't wait for him to finish his words.He sighed. "I'm calling you because you just fulfilled the first requirements left by your father. Can we meet in person and talk?"Requirements?What requirements?"You needed to talk to someone before, surely his lawyer would be of much help." I concluded in my head."Sure. Let's meet in an hour time." I utter then hang up.I did the basic cleanliness hygiene and dress up in an oversized leather

ABIGAIL...The servings of different dishes illuminates under the chandeliers hanging down the restaurant's ceiling.We stare at each other for minutes before I spoke up, catching along with the violinist heightening the tune he was playing."Why do you all appear so rotten?" My eyes move to the foods on the table."If you feel too mighty to greet an elder, you should accept their kind gesture then.I heard you like shrimps so I got the kitchen prepare them specially for you."Hr gave the food s look before chuckling."It's the opposite. Your info must have developed a bug."My jaw tightened before I release a smile to mask my dissatisfaction."Family bonds is really unbreakable. Nothing has been finalised yet but we are pretty much the same. We want and chase after similar things." I pick my words slowly.His eyes twitch before he pulled the bridge of his nose."Clarifications will be appreciated.""You're really clueless, aren't you?" I smirk."I...I really tried to stop her, I..di

"You're Angela Wilson?" The manager of the store assess my physical appearance.I dragged my nod and he pinch his nose.Why does everyone look so nervous about something I am not aware of?"I..did heard you were going to work here but I still need the chairwoman's word. And.." his eyes linger on my shoes."Never mind. You can...hover around for today. I already contacted her but..""But she is my mother?" I grinded my teeth in annoyance."Clearly, yea, clearly...she is your mo..mother but we.. still need to follow what has to be followed at work, don't we?I trust you to understand since you would be more familiar with keeping family and work separate.." he stuttered.I tokk in a deep breath in."What are you on about?" Someone else came around. He looked at me before staring at the manger."Is she a customer, what is the issue?""No, absolutely no...she..she is the company's heiress.

Janice seems to notice my uneasiness as she clears her throat. "Can...we start, now?" "Fvck, that's my line." i heard Billie rumble before she stood up. "Yes, please. It is nice to have you here, Mrs Winslow." The one who looks like their leader commented. I almost blurt "do you know me?" until I remember our wedding was one weird one...and the news about it is still everywhere.. "Besides, how could they not know the wife of their boss?"
