A Shocked Malcolm.

MalcolmFor quite some time now, I had wanted my personal assistant to upgrade her wardrobe, and no, it wasn't because her clothes were outdated or unfashionable. The problem was that standing beside me meant she represented me, and whether she liked it or not, she was constantly surrounded by people who paid attention to appearances.To her credit, she had always looked professional and presentable, but I wanted more for her. Besides, somewhere along the line, I had made a promise to myself that I would compensate her for all the extra trouble she endured because of me.And what better way was there than giving her an unlimited card to buy whatever she wanted?Women liked shopping, didn't they?The moment she left, I finally allowed myself to relax. This week hadn't been nearly as chaotic as the previous one, but the effects of everything that had happened recently were finally catching up with me. There was only so much stress a person could endure before their body demanded rest.W

Imogen Evans

MalcolmI stared at my assistant for much longer than I should have, wondering if this was truly Mrs. Evans standing before me or an entirely different woman. She looked nothing like her usual professional self. Her short hair had been styled neatly, her makeup was soft yet flattering, and her eyes seemed brighter than usual, drawing attention to them in a way I had never noticed before.What the hell was I thinking?Get yourself together, Malcolm.She was beginning to look at me strangely by the time I cleared my throat."You're here?" was all I managed to say.She bit lightly on her pink lips before nodding."It wasn't hard finding you in the crowd," she replied after a brief pause, and I simply nodded as though that was a perfectly reasonable response."And who is this beautiful woman?" Marcelo suddenly asked, making me realize I had completely forgotten he was standing right beside me.Turning toward him, I gestured in Mrs. Evans' direction."This is my personal assistant, Mrs. Ev

Complicated Feelings

MalcolmI stood there for a moment, unable to take my eyes off her.Imogen.Of all the names in the world, it just had to be Imogen."And why wouldn't he like that name? It's a beautiful name," Marcelo said, but the moment he caught sight of my expression, he paused and nodded slowly. "Oh.""Do you hate my name?" she asked softly.Why did my assistant have the same first name as the woman I was supposedly married to? What were the chances of that? Now, every time I heard her name, I would be reminded of the one thing that had been giving me a headache for months.Suddenly, I felt her hand on my arm and turned to look at her. A slight frown rested on her face, and she seemed genuinely concerned by my reaction.I let out a sigh."It's not that I dislike the name. It's just... complicated."The moment I said that, she slowly withdrew her hand."No wonder Sebastian told me to keep it from you."That damn Sebastian.Why hadn't he simply told me her name from the beginning? Then again, the

Complicated Feelings 2

Malcolm Later, I took her to a fine dining restaurant. At the very least, I hoped it would improve her mood and make up for what happened yesterday, and thankfully it worked because without any warning, she suddenly looked at me and said, "I forgive you." That made me laugh. "Is it really that easy?" I asked teasingly, and she nodded her head. "You know I can't stay angry with you for long," she replied, causing me to shake my head. Women were truly something else. People always claimed that the way to a man's heart was through food, but I was beginning to think they had it all wrong, it was women. "So, are you finally going to tell me why you didn't like my name?" she pressed, refusing to let the matter go. I shook my head immediately. "I never said I disliked your name." She pointed her fork in my direction. "No, but you should have seen the look on your face when I said it." Before I could think of a response, a familiar voice interrupted us and drew both our at

Amusement Park.

ImogenThe time finally came, and when we arrived at the amusement park, it was crowded with people. Adults and children walked about excitedly, and the entire place was lively with colorful lights shining from every direction. As I glanced around, I noticed Malcolm's bodyguards scattered throughout the park. They had been following us everywhere we went, though they mostly remained in the shadows.The park was filled with different rides and games, and as I looked around, I found myself getting more excited by the second. It had been a long time since I had done something purely for fun, and a little leisure was good for the body.My eyes eventually landed on a shooting game where players could win teddy bears. I found myself staring at it for a little too long, wondering if Malcolm would approve if I told him I wanted to try."You want to try it."His voice suddenly sounded beside me, and I turned to look at him.How long had he been watching me?I nodded shyly, and a small smile ap

Divorce Your Husband.

ImogenI was so tired that my legs felt like they could give out at any moment."I think we've had enough fun for one day," Malcolm said as he glanced back at the amusement park, looking almost as though he would miss the place.I raised a brow."You did, though."He chuckled."Indeed."When we finally left the park and made our way to the car, Xavier quickly opened the door for us. I slid into the seat and dropped the teddy bear beside me while Malcolm got in after me.Just as Xavier walked around the vehicle to take his place behind the wheel, Malcolm suddenly spoke."Divorce your husband."My eyes widened.I turned my head so quickly that my neck almost protested.He was staring directly at me, his expression unreadable, yet there was something in his gaze that made it feel as though he expected an answer.At that moment, Xavier got into the driver's seat.For a brief second, the atmosphere inside the car felt strange.Why did he want me to divorce my husband so badly?What exactly

Separation Crisis

Lyra“You should go back to your room to sleep,” he said after a long pause.I smiled and shook my head. Playing around the bush clearly wasn’t going to work on him. The smile stayed on my face as I replied, “That’s what I do all day.”He didn’t leave this time. He stayed right there. So I reached for another glass and began pouring drinks for both of us. Since he hadn’t stopped me, I knew he wanted this too.When I was done, I glanced up at him and offered the glass I had already drunk from. “Here, sir.”He walked over and took it, then deliberately drank from the same spot my lips had touched. A wicked smile crept onto my face. He was tasting the saliva of his daughter-in-law. So I wasn’t the only one trying to seduce. He was too.No point prolonging this anymore.“Instead of taking it from the glass,” I said, pointing to my lips, “the real thing is right here.”He dropped the glass instantly and pulled me hard against him. “I see you have wits,” he growled.I chuckled softly. “Even

Unexpected Arrival

ImogenThat evening, we were all having fun, drinking, eating, and chatting, but for some reason it didn't feel complete. It wasn't because I wasn't enjoying the company of my friends, because I truly was, but my mind kept wandering back to Malcolm.I didn't regret leaving him behind, yet I found myself missing him. I guess somewhere along the line I had grown close to him without even realizing it, and that was bad. The man was married and so was I. We were both off limits.Seriously, I had thought my crush on him would have disappeared by now, but I guess it hadn't completely gone away. I couldn't help wondering what he was doing at that moment."You seem to be somewhere else."Jones' voice pulled me from my thoughts, and I turned to look at him with a smile."Not really. I'm here with you, aren't I?" I asked with a small laugh, and he nodded."You look different now," he said.My eyes widened."Exactly, I was about to say the same thing. What is it? Are you glowing or something?" S

Mrs. Evans

Imogen"Well, he is certainly a remarkable one, isn't he?" I asked, and Jones simply stared at me."Well, for a moment there, I thought I didn't exist. You seemed to be in your own world too."I furrowed my brows at that. Was he upset because we had left him standing there?"Enough about my boss. What was so urgent that you had to follow me out here?" I asked, and he shrugged his shoulders."I was going to tell you something, but now I don't think I need to anymore because it seems you already have someone you like."I blinked as his words sank in, and before I knew it, a scoff escaped me."So you think I like my boss romantically?" I asked, and he pressed his lips together before nodding slightly."It seems that way. Sorry if I'm stepping out of line."I sighed and rubbed my forehead."And what does someone I like have to do with whatever you wanted to tell me?"His eyes drifted elsewhere before eventually returning to me."I was going to ask if you wanted to go out sometime, like a

I'm Not Though.

"Sir? Are you still there?"Sebastian's voice cut through my thoughts."Send me everything you've uncovered. If I find out she is in on it with my grandmother, she will pay," I said, my voice hard, though a part of me prayed she wasn't.She didn't seem like someone who would do that, but then again, you never truly know people."Of course, sir, but please let's not be in a haste to judge," he said, and I could hear the concern in his voice.I rubbed my temple."And you think I don't know that?" I snapped.His side immediately went silent before he finally replied."I'll send everything over now."---ImogenI went to Malcolm's house as usual, and when I arrived, I found him sitting with a cup of coffee in hand."Good morning, sir," I greeted.Instead of replying, he placed his coffee on the table, got to his feet, and turned to look at me."Tell me about your husband."I blinked.There was something in his expression that I couldn't quite place, and for some reason, it felt like I nee
