Davis woke with a long yawn, stretching lazily before walking to the dining. Caro was already seated, hands folded neatly. He gave her a brief nod, grabbed a seat and dug into his food. Caro’s cheeks warmed, she felt shy, her heart quivering, still fearing and respecting him deeply as her boss. They ate with heavy silence, unspoken thoughts. No words passed between them, only the clink of cutleries against plates. Caro kept her gaze low, while he ate calmly.He stared at her for what felt like ages. Admiring her beautiful face, her cute eyes, her soft red lips, he cleared his throat, paused on his meals."If you don't find it offensive, can I ask you a question? Who was that guy yesterday? Is he your boyfriend? Are you two trying to fix things together?"Caro chuckled softly. "He used to be my boyfriend, but not anymore.""Okay, you know I'm asking this because you're very tender and special, he doesn't seem like a nice guy, I advice when choosing love, you should be careful." His

Makeup artists hovered around Caro, brushing her cheeks, costume designers adjusted her dress, the stylist perfected every strand of her hair. In a single glimpse, they stepped back and left the stage quickly, giving her space to pose.Caro's beauty radiated effortlessly, her eyes, dark and luminous, carried an aura that drew every gaze, while her lips, soft and full, curved with unspoken enigma.Camera flashes burst like stars, capturing every angle as she posed magnificently, the company’s handbag gripped firm on her hand.Each click marked her claim, an audition to prove she was worthy of becoming the brand’s ambassador.How she strike her poses made the role perfect for her. Alex sat beside Bella, who'd just finished her audition. They both stare at Caro disgustedly. But Caro ignored their presence focusing on her charisma.Alex frustrated, called out to the talent director taking the shots."Well, Miss Hugo, what do you think? We can agree that Bella should be the leading ambass

"My little eye candy, Caro...." He smiled for a second, cupping her jaw with his palm, voice soft. Caro blinked twice, face fluttering."Jealousy looks adorable on you. You know that right?" Davis remarked.Caro sat up, quickly masked the expression. Phew! Looked like someone already caught those jealous altitude of hers."I..I.. don't know what you're talking about." Caro hid her face away. Eyes blinking repeatedly.Davis laughed. " Well, nicole wants to see you again tonight."Caro's brows wrinkled. "Wait. Why? Why does she want to see me again? "She wants you to join us for dinner.""Again? Why? " Caro snapped back. Jealousy blanketed her cute eyes. Davis smiled, touched her cheeks and went upstairs.Does he actually cheated on her and wanted to put that to her face?Caro's chest rising fast, she couldn't bear another heart break, she didn't want to give a hearing to that breaking thought, being scared of the truth alone was it all.Moments later, Caro already dressed, wearing a

“Please,” Caro mouthed again. Davis shook his head in surrender. There was no way he could possibly refuse her after she was being so sweet to him. Suddenly, his stare fell at her lips, he glanced at them as he wished he could kiss her again, but he halted his thoughts because he wasn’t ready to satisfy his Mum and Sister's cravings.“Fine, I will stay,” Davis agreed. Caro smiled warmly and whispered a Thank You to him. Edith shoved her shoulders in a little happy dance and she went back to serving with Nicole who was grinning sheepishly.“She has held your brother so good,” Edith said in a low tone to Nicole, who nodded in agreement.Davis took Caro to a chair opposite his Mum and Nicole and they both sat down, his facial expression had softened now. Caro felt his ease as in his grip and she was glad they stayed, at least his anger was gone now.But Davis hadn’t forgotten what he needed to do. But he’d decided to give this one up for his Mum’s happiness but most especially for his

“You think I’m lying?” Davis asked and then dropped the dress on the bed. “Come and see.” he pulled her hand and took her towards the shelves. “Every dress has a receipt.” Caro was still confused, but she kept mute, waiting for Davis to finish with his drama, but she knew that she wasn’t the owner of that dress. Davis picked out a new receipt and then gave it to her. Her eyes first caught the price of the dress. “Five hundred dollars?” she asked, looking up at Davis. He shrugged. She looked back at the dress and gulped. It was really high class. She faced the receipt again, and then she saw her name as the buyer. “Why is my name here?” She asked. Davis shrugged again as he smiled. “Go ahead and check the date.” She blinked as she gazed down once again to check the date. “This is my–”David smirked as he took her hand. “Your birthday?” He asked, and she nodded, still confused for a while. How was her birthday the day she bought a dress worth Five hundred dollars and yet she wasn’t
