her past

Coming out of the airport, I spread my arms wide and threw my head back. “ Finally, I’m free!!” People coming and going gave me weird looks, but I didn’t care!I couldn’t believe I was finally freed from that demon in human skin, my ex-husband! A man who made me regret jumping into marriage too quickly!I married him believing love could be born. Maybe I was naïve, or perhaps I clung to that romantic idea that time, dedication, and patience could soften any heart, even one as cold as his.Timothy Owen was powerful, rich, and elegant, just like how I imagined my future husband should be! And I was the ideal wife in his eyes.Beautiful, well-educated, discreet. Everything fit. At first, he was distant but polite. Dinners were quiet yet respectful.He often traveled while I stayed behind, waiting for him. Whenever I was bored, I read.Each month, I thought maybe this would be the month something changed that he would look at me differently, that he would come closer. But the only time he

A golden Job

I sighed and ruffled my hair. “ Don’t think too much, bebès. Maybe they don’t even need a secretary.”“ But I need this money! How am I supposed to feed myself?!”“ You won’t stay at home, I promise. And guess what?”I rolled my eyes. “ Not interested. Today is already a bad day…”“ The Donovans accepted your request to teach their only son extra lessons!” Sofia giggled as she brought out a file.I looked at her in disbelief. “ This isn’t a prank, right?”“ What kind of prank will make me print these expensive files, huh?”I went through the files and saw Mrs Donovan’s signature. “ Yes!! Yes!!” I had been eyeing this contract ever since I came to this country. Being new and broke, getting a job as a homeroom teacher for the most powerful family in business and politics was actually a big deal. I didn’t think much of it when I applied, since it was very competitive!Their salary was 30% higher than some companies’ secretaries’, almost matching the salary of the company I wanted to appl

Mr perfect

The next day.Sofia and I went to a famous bookshop to buy stationery. Then Sofia picked up a red pen. “ I don’t think I’ll need that,” I rejected, shaking my head. “ You will. Won’t you mark his work?”I rolled my eyes and took the red pen. “ Anyway, I should have it, just in case.”After shopping for stationery, Sofia dragged me to a boutique.“ You need sexy clothes, Lisa.”“ No! Don’t you read the rules?!”She laughed. “ That’s not what I mean. Not even for them, I mean for Andrew.” She giggled.“ The motherf**ker?” Ahh, that man!! Not even up to a month since I came here and he already started disturbing me to date him, but he wasn’t the serious type. I once wanted to give him a chance just to get over Timothy, but when I visited his house, I saw a lot of sex toys everywhere. That turned me off immediately.I didn’t even like the man from the beginning, but since everyone kept rejecting me because I’m divorced, I started feeling something was wrong with the way I dressed. I began

Meeting Mr dragon

The next day, in the afternoon.Coming down from the taxi, I walked toward the huge tall gate in front of me. I tightened my grip on the bag I was holding. I could see two gate men through the opening space in the gate, and when they opened it, I smiled at them and entered.I walked for about five minutes before reaching the main mansion. I stared at it in awe. I used to think the Owen family was the richest, but seeing this mansion was another thing entirely! I suddenly felt this family could easily buy the Owens.I wish I were born into a rich family like this… I wouldn’t have to work this hard just to earn money!! I sighed as I entered the luxurious living room, huge enough to build another house inside it. The chandeliers and lights made it look like heaven!A maid approached me and smiled. “Hello, are you Miss Lisa?”“Yes, I am,” I answered confidently. I had to act professional so they wouldn’t look down on me! The contract wasn’t easy to get anyway.“Follow me, please,” the mai

Opening up

“Are you trying to look funny?” he added.I rolled my eyes, shaking my head. Not only rude, but he’s also very disrespectful! I suddenly had the urge to spank his butt!“I’m not trying to do what you think Mr Kelvin. I mean, you can also learn how to make a business on TikTok.”He raised a brow and glanced at his phone. “What’s there to learn by wasting my time watching movies? I don’t even post anything. How will I learn or gain something? Are you even a good teacher?”I chuckled and nodded. “I’m glad you know you won’t learn anything from just watching videos on TikTok.” He can if he posts his cute face, in fact, he’ll have millions of fans within a month!His mood worsened. “Why do you even care about my lifestyle? I don’t know why they keep sending different people to annoy me.” He grunted. “The door is there. You can go.”I smiled faintly. “Why would I go if I can help you?”“I don’t need any help, miss. Leave. I’m not interested. Don’t let me see you here again,” he growled, sta

Mhenn!

Kelvin was surprised by my request. “Did you really value this work? I thought you said you have many people waiting on the clue.” He remembered… I almost forgot that I lied. “I know, but I prefer this place more. You can tell me if you want to see her.” “Okay! Fine, I want to see her, so how can you help me with that?” he asked in confusion. “My parents are very strict about me going out. You think you can confuse them?” I smiled awkwardly at him. For some reason, I’m not comfortable!! Those green eyes and innocent face are killing me. “You don’t understand, I will talk to them….” “Ahh, what are you even saying? I don’t think you know how much they hate her.” I rolled my eyes. “You don’t have to worry about that, kid.” Then he frowned deeper. “Kid? I’m 19.” “Then I am 24!” He chuckled while his sharp eyes swept over my body. “You don’t look like your age… why adding to it to make me…” “This!” I placed my birthday certificate in front of him. I came well prepared. Ma

Sleepless night

As if he sensed my tensed body, he quickly placed his hands on my waist. Feeling uncomfortable, he pulled away. “Sorry about that,” he said and left, leaving me worried about what happened. I placed my hand on my chest, trying to calm my pounding heart, then followed him, meeting him up, then I asked him “Bar?” “Good idea,” he nodded. He needs to pour his emotions out. ….. I looked at him nervously as he finished his second bottle of wine, not just wine, but the one with a very high alcohol level. One small glass would knock me out! Just as he was about to open another bottle, I snatched it from him and rolled my eyes. “That’s enough, Kelvin.” “I want to drink more…” “No more drinks, Kelvin! I don’t know why you want to destroy yourself over her. She isn’t even worthy of you,” I gritted my teeth. I’m the one fighting for my husband’s attention in a relationship. My husband doesn’t love me, but I love him. Kelvin loves his girlfriend, but she’s into someone else. Not balanc

She found out....

Entering the Donovans’ luxurious mansion, I saw Mrs Donovan and two men in the main living room, chatting. One was wearing white while the second one was wearing black. I could tell from his features that the one in white was Kelvin’s father. The man sitting beside him… very good-looking. I chuckled. From his look, he was bored with whatever Mr Donovan was telling him. He’s very mature, and everything about him— very perfect. I envy his wife! Some ladies are just lucky! They paused when they saw me. Mrs Donovan smiled and stood up immediately. “Ahhh, you are here, Miss Lisa,” she patted my shoulder and looked at her husband. “This is the amazing tutor I was talking about.” Err… amazing tutor, she said? Today is my second day… I blushed and looked away when the two of them looked at me. “Oh really? Thanks.” He stood up to shake my hand, surprising me. I’m surprised not all rich people are rude… Timothy’s parents were very rude, especially his younger sister. “Ahhh… don’t say

It's okay not to be okay

“Are you okay?” Her voice snapped me out of my thoughts. I forced a smile and nodded. “I’m good.” I wondered how she would react when she learned that I was infertile… “Because of your pure intention, I won’t fire you,” she smiled. I sighed in relief and bowed. “Thank you so much…” “Oh… no need.” “I will make sure it won’t happen again!” “Come on, you’re funny.” ….. “Hey… why are you looking like that? Did you see a ghost?” That was when I realised I was already home. I was hugging my handbag tightly to my chest! “Oh, I’m home,” I scoffed and dashed to my room, Sofia following me in confusion. “Lisa, are you okay? Why are you in tears!” “I’m fine,” I sniffed. “Hey, wait…” She caught my hand before I could enter my room. I couldn’t hold it anymore, I burst into tears. “Oh my gosh… what’s going on with you, babe,” she whispered and hugged me, placing my forehead on her shoulder, patting my back. “Whatever you’re thinking, it’s going to be alright. I promise.

out of control

He looked at me for a while. “ May I help you, Miss Lisa?”“ Ohh… yes… sure.” Why was I even feeling guilty? Not that I committed any offence. I was only a teacher for his friend’s son! “ I came for a check-up.”He nodded. “ What exactly do you want us to check?”I blinked. Why did I feel like this question was deeper than it appeared? “ I…”“ I mean, where do you want us to focus on? Or do you want a full body check-up?”“ Yes…” I quickly nodded. There's nothing wrong with telling him my problem, but I wasn’t comfortable with the man, and I was even confused about why I was feeling that way.“ Noted.” He then stood up immediately. His blank expression made me feel at ease. We went into a room filled with expensive equipment, some of which isn't common in normal hospitals because patients wouldn’t be able to afford it.After the check-up, he dropped his stethoscope and sighed. I noticed he was trying to hold his anger, making me wonder what I did wrong…“ Madam, if you are having issu
