CHAPTER 11A RESUME FOR BOYFRIEND APPLICATION "Do you love me?" Dan asked his mother as she finished dressing him up for work."Of course I love you. Haven't I been showing you that?" Flora knitted her brows.The little boy nodded and continued."And, am I handsome?" Flora was beginning to have goosebumps over the little boy's unexpected questions, but she managed to maintain her expression. "Of course, you're very handsome. Even if I don't tell you that, you've always heard that from people outside. And yes my dear, you're the most handsome kid in the world." Flora remarked and planted a soft kiss on the little boy's forehead."Okay mummy. One last question. Since you said you love me and I'm handsome, that means you'll also love my dad because he's as handsome as me."Flora smiled and shook her head."Com'on, we're running late. I still have a lot to do at the office." Flora dismissed his questions and asked him to pick up his lunch bag as they headed for the door.Little Daniel

CHAPTER 12ANOTHER FRUSTRATING PROJECT."Miss Blake, we have another order from.." Mrs. Elizabeth paused for a moment, pairing her eyes into Flora's for some seconds.Flora blinked, a light grin washing over her face.Mrs. Elizabeth still kept mute, furrowing her brows in confusion as she glared at flora. "Is everything okay? Is something wrong with my face, Ms Elizabeth?" Flora asked." Not at all." Elizabeth blinked with a smile. "It's another demanding project from..""From Mrs. Wilson, I guess." Flora cut in, her expression instantly turned gloomy."Yeah." Elizabeth nodded and took her seat.Flora frowned.She was really relieved after the successful delivery of Debby's first work. Since then, she had been praying deep in her mind for Debby never to return to that company again–at least, not to be welcomed with such an evil woman's project as the first schedule of a new week!"She called me earlier today and said she needs you two to meet up to discuss the project.""And guess

CHAPTER 13

CHAPTER 13A FAKE NAME "How was the meeting, Flora? Guess she wasn't as difficult as she used to be?" Elizabeth asked with a light grin on her face when Flora joined her in her office.Flora sighed heavily. "Can anything good ever come out of a meeting between a husband snatcher and the victim?" "I'm sorry for all the emotional damage that Mrs. Wilson is causing you. I assure you that after this, I'll find better ways to get another designer to handle her projects." Elizabeth said softly.‘It’s easier said than done.’ Flora thought to herself."What if she insists on me being her designer? Would you risk your business for my sake?" She asked.Huh? Elizabeth blinked at the unexpected question from Flora.She sat down quietly and paired into her innocent eyes for some seconds. "And you, you're doing all of this for Daniel? Is that how far you're willing to condone anything for the sake of your son, Flora? I must say I admire your zeal as a mother.""Of course. I can go the extra mile

CHAPTER 14

CHAPTER 14FINALLY MET WITH THE RICHEST MAN“Hey Dan. Didn't you hear me? I said, "How's your grandpa?” The receptionist.Dan furrowed his brows in confusion, but immediately replaced them with a smile before the lady could catch sight of him.‘Fuck! I didn't even ask Miss. Bianca of Mr. Adrian has a father!’ the little boy cursed inwardly.“Ehh..ehnnn you mean my grandpa? He's doing very fine. In fact, he would have come with me, but he was exhausted from his home exercise.” He said, his voice firm and determined.After saying this, he raised his eyes to look at the expression on the receptionist's face, and their eyes met."Wow!" She nodded at the striking resemblance. The three lines on his forehead were exactly how they always appeared folded on Mr. Adrian's face whenever he raises his brows."Alright. Give me a minute to tidy this up so that I'll take you to your uncle." The receptionist calmly and hurriedly arranged the open files on her table.What a golden opportunity to show

CHAPTER 15

CHAPTER 15IS IT BECAUSE MY MOTHER IS POOR The man dropped the cup of coffee and fixed his eyes on the innocent little boy who's looking confused but still trying to pull his face together to look confident.The moment he looked through the boy's eyes, it reminded him of his looks in the past.“Wow! This little boy is really handsome even in a simple outfit! Adrian gasped.Dan kept his eyes fixed on him.The perfect scent of perfume that filled the room was–oh my God! It was so nice that he wished to inhale it two times at each passing second."Christine, where did you see him?" Adrian asked.Dan's heart began to race faster than his feets.What if they catch his lies? Would he go to jail just as Bianca had warned him?What will do to get himself out of this mess?His body began to tremble. He blinked and looked at the man with a corner of his eyes. Judging from his expression, he doesn't look like one who could reprimand an innocent kid who's only trying to look out for his mother!

CHAPTER 16

CHAPTER 16I NEED A DNA TEST.Dan glared painfully at Adrian. His sole mission was to find a boyfriend for his mother, and now that Adrian is saying that he's not interested, then what's the need of pressing further with the discussion? He thought to himself."Mr. Adrian. Can you just be my mother's boyfriend even if it's only for a few moments before she gets another job? My mummy needs protection in this job. She's the only one taking care of me, and I cannot even protect her!" He explained.Protection? Adrian raised his brows."Why does your mother need protection from her job?" Adrian asked, his voice laced with curiosity.Little Dan lowered his head and swallowed painfully before he continued."My mummy is a designer, and she works tirelessly both at home and in the office. But there's one woman that always bullies her whenever she comes to the company.” He reported.Adrian blinked. The little boy's level of reasoning and defense sounded quite funny but pitiful at the same time.

CHAPTER 17

CHAPTER 17A MEETING IN HER HOMEChristine stood speechless; she had never seen her boss in such an unsettled state of mind.'Isn't the boy his nephew again? Why demand a DNA test for a nephew? This really sounds absurd! 'She thought to herself, but she still took the samples and left quietly.***At the ADVs design hub, Flora was almost beginning to shed tears as she tirelessly searched for her son.Dan was rushing to meet his mother when he overheard some voices."The chief designer's cute son has gone missing. Have you seen him by any chance?" One of the older women, a cleaner, was asking the security man at the gate."I didn't go missing. I'm here." The little boy quickly replied as he rushed towards the reception."Hey little boy. Where have you been? Your mother has been looking for you!" The receptionist announced as he approached her table."Now, hurry up and go show yourself to your mummy." She added.At the office, Flora was restless; she paced back and forth the corners of

CHAPTER 18

CHAPTER 18DEAL OR NO DEAL?"Keep her waiting for the next two hours." That was the instruction Mrs. Wilson passed when the gateman asked the head of domestic staff to inform their boss of Flora's appointment."I'm sorry, ma'am. You'll have to stay out there until she returns in two hours' time. She left for an urgent meeting this morning." The gateman stood from inside and related the information to her."Two hours? Did your boss think I'm that jobless?" Flora exploded and began scrolling through her phone to report everything to her superior."Flora, you need to be patient. I promise, this will be the last time I'll allow that woman to subject you to this kind of suffering. Once we get the complete payment from this contract, the company will stop accepting any difficult deals from her." Flora's phone beeped with a message from Elizabeth when she dropped a complaint about the annoying situation she found herself in.For more than an hour, Flora stood under the scorching sun, her cl

CHAPTER 19

CHAPTER 19YOU'RE APPOINTMENT IS TERMINATED "Deal or no deal?" Those words kept running helter-skelter down Elizabeth's mind as she stood at the window of her office, her hands clutched around her waist as she looked out at the sky in confusion.'Fifteen million?' She thought and breathed heavily before reaching out to her phone on the table.What if I lay Flora off from work, and I have difficulty in getting an exceptional hand like her for a replacement?What about our future clients?Elizabeth, you must know that Mrs. Wilson is only against Flora's works for her own selfish reasons, not that Flora's designs are bad. What will happen if after firing Flora, Mrs. Wilson or another client continues to complain about the company's next dedicated staff?Who knows? If I add the price, Mrs. Wilson might back down and let the innocent Flora be.'Different thoughts ran helter-skelter down her mind while she paced back and forth between the corners of the office.She picked up her phone and

CHAPTER 20

CHAPTER 20A LIFE SHE NEVER PLANNEDMs. Elizabeth didn't look up from her desk at all; instead, she continued to open some files on the table, as if the words she just spoke were normal words for daily human consumption.Flora's grip on her bag tightened. "I don't think the company needs your services anymore." The words continued to replay in her head like some unforgettable ceremonial lines of an event. Her lips parted open, as if she wanted to talk, but no word was forthcoming. Just like that.She's no longer needed.“Is Ms. Elizabeth experiencing some migraine that might have affected her faculty of thinking?” Different thoughts ran helter-skelter down Flora's mind."Sorry? Did...did I just hear you correctly? My appointment..." Flora stammered when she finally found her voice."Yes, Flora. Your appointment is terminated. Effective immediately." Elizabeth cut in, her eyes still fixed on the files before her and her voice devoid of any emotions.The room began to tilt around Flora
