Semua Bab Scandalously Yours: Bab 1 - Bab 7

Think of the messiest place to hear a life changing rumor? I bet whatever you think can never be as wild as mine. I had diarrhea that morning so I spent the whole time going in and out of the toilet. I would have taken a leave but I had a meeting by noon to discuss my next project with the manager. I was seated on the toilet seat when I overheard two women talking outside. I knew one of the voices. She was a cleaner here and she was usually nice to me. She had helped me out several times. How could I fail to recognize her voice? "Are you sure she really got pregnant?" I heard the woman say. That caught my attention instantly so I peeped through the toilet. They probably didn't know I was in there. "Poor girl!" The other woman muttered. "The girl is pretty and nice. However, I never knew she was that naive. Why would you get pregnant for Duncan of all people? There are contraceptives for a reason!" Duncan. Were they talking about the Duncan I knew? The CEO of Duck Entertainment Age

As I walked into the bar, I could see a woman drinking. She was sitting exactly at the place I used to. I go to the bar several days a week but this was the first time I was seeing her. I went there and sat next to her. "Shall I get your regular, sir?" The barman asked me. I nodded and the barman got ready. The barman knew me, of course. I was a well-known customer there. I turned towards the woman now. She was a beautiful one but I could sense she was sad just from the way she drank. I asked the barman to get her another drink, it was on me."Thank you for the drink," She muttered. Our eyes met and she seemed to be processing where she had seen my face. I was a popular public figure so she might know me.“Do you know me?” I asked just to be safe. “I'm not sure,” She smiled at me. We didn't discuss after this. We drank in silence and then, I began to notice her stealing gazes at me. I didn't care at first but since I was interested in her, I took that as my opening. "Do I look tha

We need to talk! Could you spare me a few minutes?" Julian asked calmly. "Will you leave if I say no?" I asked sarcastically while maintaining eye contact. "Excuse us, Isabella," Julian muttered. Isabella did as he ordered and he closed the door after her. He had a brown envelope with him and he placed it on the table. He sat down and I sat opposite him. We stared at each other for a minute and he broke the silence. "I'm sorry about this morning. I am usually level headed but I was flustered this morning. Everything happened unexpectedly, you know..." Julian apologized. It sounded sincere. "I guess I should say I understand," I muttered. "I have an offer for you," He shifted the envelope towards me. I picked it and raised my eyebrows, seeking an explanation. He understood and continued, "This scandal, if not controlled, can be the end of my career. I thought long and hard and I think I've found a solution." " The solution is in this envelope?" I raised it. "Exactly!" Julian re

I was grossed out immediately. Seeing Annie laughing so hard told me all I needed to know. She was behind this. I didn’t find this funny at all. I grabbed the cup and smashed it on the floor, shattering it into pieces. Isabella entered now, attracted from the noise I made. Annie had stopped laughing by now. She must have realized how mad I was.“Did you use expired sugar?” I asked her, trying my best to control my anger.“I used salt, little man,” Annie replied. That must be her reply since I called her little lady yesterday. I closed my eyes and clenched my fists.“Is this supposed to be funny?” I asked angrily.“It is called payback, little man. You do it but you laugh but you can’t receive the same, huh! You have a short temper, little man,” Annie replied savagely.“One more little man and I will…” I stopped talking.“Will you hit me?” Annie asked, her voice loud all of a sudden.
