ZACK POVThat reaction was seen before, but it became intense here at the office. I couldn't expect the cold reaction from Kayla, whom I thought was soft-hearted. The reaction told a thousand and one messages concerning her current state of mind. I tried to make a sound to attract her, but it was just noise for her. She went back to her seat and stared straight at her desktop, completely ignoring me. I tried to put my legs in her shoe but couldn't understand the rhythm behind every step. I made that statement to push my father away from my true love, but didn't realize that my love story was closing up. The book containing our story is beginning to fade away into the sea of time. From my perspective, I couldn't sit back and watch this incident cast a black shadow on me. I decided to track down Kayla's movement to the last. With that, I went back to my office, sending spies in the form of office attendants to track her. This wasn't directly tracking, rather it was in the form of an e

KAYLA POV The anger written on my mom's face was one that I've never seen before. She was naturally a calm person, despite her attitude I despise. But seeing her anger shiver down my spine as if being electrocuted. My eyes moved straight to Lucas's face, who looked pale. His face resembles that of a person who had seen a ghost or a worst nightmare. Her cold expression while being with us was one that I haven't seen in ages. To be honest, we stood by the door for several minutes like monuments. I broke free from the monument curse only to see Lucas being stuck in that reality. I couldn't say much more than to watch the whole scenario. At a point, I couldn't take it anymore since he's been a monument for a while now. I tapped him, which brought him to his senses. He didn't say anything as he stared at random items at irregular times. The only statement I heard from him was "Let's move," in which I had to follow him. I followed him to the car, and I entered first. He was still outsi

LUCAS POVI didn't understand this type of feeling I experienced, but I was anxious. What will happen if she rejects the invitation? Different questions kept my mind as busy highway at its peak. I tried to come out of it, but realized that I was at the bottom of that pit. At this point, I had no choice but to take in my regular Vodka, which I believe will help calm my nerves. The Vodka was so strong that it nearly knocked me off my feet. I tried maintaining my posture, and I fell back into my chair. It was weird as I rarely felt the effects of Vodka in the late afternoon. With this development, I had to maintain my composure till I left the office. After a moment of struggle, I finally got hold of myself. I came back fully when I heard a knock on my door, which opened slowly. The person behind the door turned out to be a director in the production department. He submitted his proposal for the new line of production, which I eventually accepted. After that, he left my office, leavin

ZACK POVAfter the meeting with my father, I discovered a hidden secret about my father. This secret happened to be his accommodating heart. With that, I felt a sense of guilt washing through me to see that he wanted me back in one piece. I couldn't do anything to find the informant, as I knew I had to pay for my sins. I went back to my office and spent my work hours delivering the work I'm expected to do. During those hours, my subordinates were also giving their quota. First time in my life that I discovered that I actually turned a blind eye to the work rendered by others in this department. When my work hours elapsed, I went to the relaxation center where I usually hang around. Engaging in different games to kill time, I discovered it was just boring for me today. I had to resort to drinking ng till I actually passed out. KAYLA POVMy eyes were instantly agitated by the effect of the sunlight, so I shut them violently. Was I from the race of a long history of vampires? I kept t

LUCAS POVThe air became lovely all of a sudden as I gained consciousness to the new day. Remembering yesterday's events at dinner remains my motivation for the day. Personally, I didn't expect the return of my family. I guess all thanks goes to Kayla for comforting me and guiding me through each step.With that, I stood up and had my personal daily routine. After my routine, I prepared to move to the office. Exiting my lounge, Zack was still preparing , and I had no time to waste since there were important documents to sign today. I called Raymond, who organized everything concerning transport.Moving out of the mansion, he was waiting beside the Lamborghini Urus. Personally, I wanted a Range Rover, but I'm open to adjustments as taught by Kayla."Good morning, Sir, " Raymond said as he bowed while I moved closer to him. I nodded in acknowledgment as he opened the door while I entered the car. In an instant , the journey began as the car left my mansion heading to the office."Raymon
