Maya’s pov I stared blankly at the screen of my phone, the breakup message looking at me. I'd read the message at least ten times that morning, each word digging deeper into my chest. "I'm sorry, Maya. I just don't think we're good for each other anymore. I hope you find someone who makes you happy." I stopped working, and my coffee had become cold.I blinked, sighing as I forwarded the message to Celine with a single line: "You were right." It didn't take long. Within fifteen minutes, Celine burst into my office, her blonde hair bouncing as she marched in. "Girl, what the hell is going on?" Celine demanded, her voice a mix of concern and exasperation. "You're texting me cryptic messages, and I'm thinking you're curled up in a corner somewhere, crying over James, but..." She paused, scanning me. "You look fine! You're not even crying!" I leaned back in my chair, crossing my arms. "Why would I cry over a breakup I saw coming months ago? Honestly, I'm relieved." Celine's jaw dropp

Maya’s pov My entire body froze, This has to be a dream there is no way, this is real“Bloody hell.” I whispered. I tried to speak but I wasn't able to form words.Daniel on the other hand seemed to have recovered quickly. He extended his hand towards me, with the same stupid smile he had on his face last night.“Hey, Maya, it's nice meeting you.” I took his hands in mine trying not to look any more suspicious.My mom sat down beside Daniel, oblivious to the tension in the room. “So, Maya, where’s James? I was hoping to finally meet him tonight.”I blinked, still too stunned to speak.Daniel leaned back in his chair, his smile widening. “I’d love to meet James too,” he said, his tone laced with mischief.I shot him a glare, but he only winked in response.I…” I finally found her voice, though it was shaky. “James couldn’t make it tonight. He’s… busy.”My mom’s face fell. “Oh, that’s too bad. I was really looking forward to meeting him.”I forced a smile, “Maybe next time.”The rest o

Maya’s povI was finishing a report in my office when my phone pinged with an email notification. Opening it, I froze. It was an appointment letter, officially naming me the marketing lead for the Daniels expansion project. My stomach churned as I read the details. I would be working directly with Daniel."No, no, no," I muttered under my breath. Rising from my chair, I stormed into my boss's office."Mr. Miles, there's been a mistake," I said, holding up my phone. "I've been assigned to the Daniels project, but I can't take it. Please assign someone else."Mr. Miles frowned. "There's no mistake, Maya. You're the best fit for this role. The client specifically requested you.""But—" I started to protest."It's final," he said, cutting me off. "Congratulations, Maya. This is a huge opportunity."Defeated, I left his office, my mind racing. Why would Daniel request me specifically? Was this some sort of game?That evening, I met Celine at our spot. As we sipped our drinks, I told her ev

Maya's PovI didn't feel like working today, yesterday's events left me unsettled.I forcefully got ready, I wish I could call in sick but I don't want to leave a bad impression with my colleagues. After standing in a spot for eternity. I headed out of the house.I got into the office building, hoping I wouldn't bump into Daniel yet,” It's 8 in the morning, he probably won't be around.” I convinced myself.I got into the elevator and was about to push the button leading to my office floor, when a familiar hand appeared stopping the elevator.“Good morning, sir.” I greeted trying to sound professional. “Morning Princess, glad to know you're alive you didn't respond to my message.” My breath hitched in my throat, his voice had a way of controlling me and I hated the effect he had on me.“I didn't see it.” I whispered lying through my teeth.He laughed coming dangerously close to me.“Don't lie to me Maya.” It sounded like a warning and I was getting turned on. The elevator came to a st

Daniel's Pov Maya had left me speechless, I shouldn't have yelled at her. I was having an awful day, and taking it out on her was wrong. The sudden change in her attitude left a pang on my chest. I should make it up to her, right? I got up from my seat, deciding to head to her office. I froze on the spot, The sight before me made my jealousy rise. She was enveloped in a hug with a guy. I had never seen him before and I know for sure, he doesn't work for me. So who was he and how Dare he laid his hands on what was mine? “Maya, Bennet, this is a place of work. Don't bring your relationship, parading shamelessly in the halls!!” My voice echoed, causing heads to turn. She broke apart from the embrace, confusion written all over her face. “Now get back to work.” I didn't wait for a response. I walked away, leaving her dumbfounded. I sat down on my desk, trying to calm my nerves down. “How dare she flaunt another man?” She was meant to be single. How did she get a man in t
