Finn’s Pov“How did you do that?” He whispered once we were already seated. I turned towards him, stunned that he asked me that kind of question. “You haven't done that before?” I whispered back and he shook his head. “Never. I already pay full price. My dad has the money and I can do whatever I want with it. This is the first time something like this has happened before my eyes.” I wasn't surprised. He was from a very rich family and had all the money he wanted at his fingertips. His monthly allowance was ten times my mother's earnings or maybe even more. “Don't worry, okay? We'll talk about it when we get home.” Knox nodded and relaxed his back on the chair until we were finally able to get to the house. Once there we alighted and Knox paid the bills. However, the moment he saw where my family and I lived, I saw the shock in his eyes. “This is where you live?”

Finn’s Pov“See, I told you it was going to be alright, didn't I?” He asked with raised brows, and his hands crossed over his chest the moment we got into the room.“Yeah you did, but you'd have to understand that my mom isn't the kind of woman to let things go. I mean, I'm worried she might find out I'm hanging out with the rich kids way too much.” “Why does that even bother her? Everyone's allowed to make friends, aren't they?” I sighed, lowering my shoulders. This was it, he was never going to understand what my mom meant, but I understood her perfectly.She didn't want any of her children to be used by rich people.She had worked with them several times and each time they proved her right.The rich use the underprivileged to get what they want. That wasn't a bad thing, she knew everyone had a place on the chain. What she didn't like was their attitude, how they treated the poor like they didn't matter.I tried to make Knox understand this, but he exhaled, running his hands thro

Knox’s PovI gritted my teeth and clenched my hands as tight as I could. Why the hell would he do that? I thought he was bluffing. I thought he was going to come back, but I was wrong. I paced around the room when I saw it was evening and he still hadn't responded. “I hate that it's making me worry.” I was still trying to think about what to do when I heard the door open. I snapped my head over to the door and the worry in my gaze became fury. “Ugh!” I clenched my hands as tightly as I could and was breathing hard. “Where the hell have you been? You didn't even let me finish my conversation with you in the morning before you…” I trailed off because he walked past where I stood. The expression on my face was dark and I tried my best to not overreact. “Is this what it has come to? You don't even listen to me anymore. Why would you even do that?” I asked with raised brows, fol

Finn’s PovMy heart raced and I blinked like I didn't want to believe what he said but the evidence was before my eyes. He was right. He didn't need new employees. His shop was undergoing reconstruction, and there was nothing he could do about it. A small smile formed on my lips before I walked out of there. However, the smile on my lips couldn't compare to the heaviness I felt inside my heart.This was one job I was looking forward to and just like that, it had slipped out of my hands.How was I supposed to save now? I exhaled, dragging my foot against the hard floor as I walked back home.By the time I got back home, I noticed the expression on his face.“You’re actually back home early, what happened?” I ignored him and headed straight to the only couch in the sitting room.“Yes, I did. I was let off work.”His eyes widened, and he hummed. “Why did you do something wrong?”

Finn’s PovSomething didn't seem right. Everything happened way too fast and it became almost too easy to be able to identify what had happened. Knox had a hand. I had been thinking about it, but the more I pondered it, the more I saw signs that Knox had done something to get me fired. I was scared. If that was the case, I wasn't sure that was a good sign. A small sigh left my lips and I immediately exhaled. I didn't even know where to start at this point. I shook my head and then turned to him. “Are you alright? Seems like something's bothering you?” He held my chin gently as he stared at me. I pressed my lips into a humble smile. “Nothing’s bothering me, there's no need for you to worry, okay?” I blinked, confused. I didn't even know what else to do at this point. I exhaled and tried my best to be able to understand what was going on. “
