All Chapters of A Promise To Forever: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

prologue"Come on now, Adrian. Stop sulking! We're going to meet our new neighbors and it wouldn't do you any good to be looking as if you swallowed a dog's poop." The ten year old boy scowled at his older sister in reply. "I'm not going anywhere," he declared and slumped down on the couch, resuming his most common position since a week now."Adrian Stone! I swear to God if you're still not ready yet, I'll keep you grounded until you're eighteen! No video games and no cookies for you!" A shrill female voice rang throughout the living room. The voice was followed by footsteps and soon, the boy was receiving an intense glare from his mother as she looked at his state of undress. She opened her mouth again and the boy winced, bracing himself for the next round of scolding but he was saved by another set of footsteps coming their way. "What're you scolding the poor boy for? He was just getting ready now, weren't you, my son?" His father said, wrapping his arms around his wife and raisin

"...so, this is why I think it would be wiser if we introduce our products in a reasonable price that can be affordable by all. That's my idea. Any questions, ladies and gentlemen?" I directed my attention to the people sitting in the conference room as I ended my presentation.From my periphery, I saw a hand being raised followed by a gruff voice, "I don't think it is a wise idea, Ms. White. Eva's is a renowned brand all over the world because only a few people can afford it. It has a high class quality that screams money from a mile, which is the reason it is the dream of everyone and possession of a few. Then there is The Stones Inc. which is even more reputed than Eva's. So if this deal is finalized, we can be even more powerful and our products will be sold for even higher prices. There's no meaning of top brand if everyone could afford it. Common things don't attract attention."I looked at the speaker. I couldn't say I was surprised it's him. David Cameron. He was a board membe

I sat in front of the bar and as usual, Terry, the bartender gave me a wink as he asked my drink. Since Red Diamonds was our favourite club to hang out, both me and Allie were quite familiar with Terry who just so happened to have his shift almost every time we come here.Terry, although his real name was something else but apparently he didn't like it since he thought it wasn't as cool as his personality (his words, not mine), was in his early 20s, studying photography and in his sophomore year. He had blonde hair with green eyes and a friendly air around him that made you want to talk to him. However, there were some instances when he tried to get a little too friendly with his cool suggestive innuendos that made me want to whack him upside his head. But apart from that, Terry was a bubble of excitement that was contagious to anyone close by.I smiled and ordered a soda while he raised an eyebrow. Then slowly, his eyes turned mischievous. A grin was about to form in his face, which,

A few weeks passed by and work resumed as normal with some exceptions of the works related to the production and marketing department. There were some changes now that it was associated with The Stones Inc., but other than that, it was pretty much the same. I'd seen Adrian somedays here and there but we hadn't talked much except share a few greetings as we were both busy with our works. And besides, I was downright furious at him for outwardly denying my idea of organizing the event by Eva's. The man wasn't even ready for joint contribution for the event. "The event will have to be upto the standard of The Stones Inc. So I'm not taking any chances with my reputation." He had rudely stated his reasoning. I'd like nothing more than to remove the huge hollow thing covering his head and discover his pea sized brain so that I could pluck it out and crush it with my foot. God! I'm violent. The party was being held tomorrow where the partnership would be announced officially. I was not re

Adrian's POV8:00 am. The elevator opened to my office and I was greeted by my personal assistant, Ms. Natalie Carter. At least that's what I think was her name because I never called anyone by their first names unless they were family or very close friends. Well, there was an exception but it was not for my P.A. That was for someone else. I noticed her flirtatious smile and her choice of wardrobe which said one thing. I was supposed to notice that. I hid my irritation and with a curt nod, walked into my office.Ms. Carter had been providing these subtle hints for sometime now and recently it was starting to be more blatant. I was considering firing her because I hated it when my employees forgot their place and the rules and regulations of my company. And most of my previous assistants were fired for the same reason. Ms. Carter was excellent in her job though which was why I was hoping it wouldn't come to that. I just hoped she'd get the hint through my obvious ignorance since I woul
