Margaret’s POV“Do I still have your heart, Dante?” I mumbled, watching Dante leave the hospital room, his retreating back burning into my vision.I couldn’t believe that a time would come when I would see Dante hesitate over any of my requests. Even though I had forced him to choose me with my little acts, I didn’t feel like I had won at all, not truly.What’s a win when it’s built on such tricks and desperation?“But I don’t care if I win with such tricks. What matters is that Dante is mine,” I whispered, ruffling my hair in frustration, but my hands trailed down to the bandaged wounds on my wrists, lingering there.My eyes darkened as I saw how far I could go just to reach Dante, and that realization dragged memories from the past to the surface. I could still remember the painful sound of the scalpel as it cut through my skin, and how I kept fainting again and again from the unbearable pain.“You’ve done worse, so this is nothing,” I muttered to myself, steadying my breathing as I

Margaret’s POVI felt my world stop the moment I realised that I had just been caught by Dante, and there was no turning back now. My heart slammed violently against my ribs as panic clawed its way up my throat. Should I start crying and beg for forgiveness? I pondered frantically as I tried to push Julio off me, but his grip tightened, holding my head firmly in place.“He can’t see anything from that angle, so listen to me,” he whispered urgently, his breath hot against my ear, as he instructed me to quickly zip up his pants. My hands shook as I did as told, before he adjusted himself calmly and turned to face Dante, who was watching us with a scrutinising, unreadable gaze.That was when I realised he was right, Dante truly couldn’t see what we had been doing from that angle. But that didn’t mean we were safe. Not at all. I still had to explain why we were in such a compromising position, and my mind raced desperately.“Are you sure you’re comfortable, or do you need to lie back down

Cassandra’s POV“Another shitty day to resume work,” I breathed, as I scanned my work ID and walked into the building.It had been a week since that horrible breakup with Dante Blackwell, and it had been horrible—no, I had been miserable. I couldn’t believe how deeply affected I was by the breakup until I got home one night and found myself standing on the bridge, genuinely considering jumping off.I couldn’t wrap my hands around the emotions I was feeling, but despite the emotional tumor growing inside me, I didn’t cry. Which Mira found either weird or devastating. She thought I was bottling everything up, thought it was too much, but I didn’t think that was it at all.Maybe experiencing two heartbreaks in such a short time had made me numb to pain. Or maybe work had become my escape, my shield. Either way, work had been a good distraction.I hadn’t thought of him all day because I buried myself in deadlines and sketches. Work had become my comfort zone. That was why my eyes burned i

Cassandra’s POVMy throat parched as I looked at the woman, and I wished the ground would open up and swallow me whole. What was this face-slapping for, anyway?Wasn’t it enough that she got hers back?“I… no, Ms. Lancaster, I think you just heard wrong. Cassandra isn’t thinking of quitting, she just says things she doesn’t mean due to the heat of the moment,” Ms. Claire said, and I was surprised to see someone like her trying to sever the moment.But did I care at all? How would I want to stay in this company knowing she was the one here now?“Don’t say that. I’m sure she’ll want to leave after she knows I’m the MD now, or am I wrong, Cassandra?” Margaret taunted, but I didn’t reply.“The way you’re talking, it seems you both know each other,” Ms. Claire whistled, and I knew it was better for me to deny that immediately.“No, we don’t know each other!”It wouldn’t look good on me if everyone got to know the history between us; I would definitely be at a disadvantage.“Really? I’m sur
