ALMA'S POV I spent the rest of the day and night looking through every possible solution. Every gemstone supplier in the region.None had a shade similar or even spot on with Bellamys. Was this some sort of bad karma I had accumulated?Some kind of punishment I was receiving, cause oh my lord!How could I be so unlucky right now??My phone kept buzzing on the side with text messages and info from my team, as well someone else interested in contacting me. But none could alleviate my stress.None.I could feel my spirit gradually drain out of me, leaving nothing but an empty shell of depression behind. Only then did I get up to find something to eat.Food.A real food that wasn't sandwiches or a bottle of water like I'd eaten back at the office.So it was past 2am, the world asleep, my eyes sad, stressed. Body physically in the kitchen, having no choice, and yet my phone kept buzz

ALMA'S POV If I wasn't sure about Valtier Gem International, I was most definitely sure now.After getting back to the office and receiving a query, receiving the confirmation email from the Valtier Gem International representative that everything had been confirmed from their end and contract awaiting to be signed. Everything so quickly done and nice.I made a good decision.A hard to come by decision, and I wouldn't let anyone make me feel otherwise about that.Not even he was CEO or my boss."We really have to thank this friend of yours, Ma'am!""Yeah. We had to." I agreed with Gwen, thinking fondly to my morning. My breakfast.I had to do something for him. Even if he'd already said I owed him, I kind of felt like I should get something for him for the meantime.I was still on that thought when a package came in for me during the afternoon lunchtime.A lunch.From him, Gabriel."Can't have you looking stressed again, My Goddess." His little note read.Making me smile and roll my

ALMA'S POV For the rest of the week and ones after that, I didn't encounter anymore 'family' concerns over my decisions. Or anyone standing in my face. Everything went smooth. Without a hinge, production taking off like there was never a problem in the first place, multiple orders coming in.Success. I could smell it in the air whenever I stepped into my office, whenever I thought of the Heritage Collection.It was a success. Would be a success, a big one. Permanently shutting up any wagging tongue.But for the meantime, I still had more to be excited about. More to squeal my head off with Rosie in her apartment as we tore into bags of chips."What? He invited you??" She shot out, mouth agape."Not just that." I said, grinning. "I even got an executive notification from Ashford on how my presence will be much appreciated at the very same event. The Annual Auction.""Quinn Annual Auction??" Rosie rose slowly, eyes wide. "Girl. Girl!" She squealed, loud. Grabbing yet another glass, wi

Hey Guys, Thank you all so much for reading. I'd wanted to put this note out before but I decided against it, now I'm putting it up because I really should've.

ALMA'S POV It was just the setting, wasn't it? The right place to be. Right place to stand so closely together, smiling and talking with people, as she planted herself ever so conveniently at his side, like it was the most normal thing in the world. Just then his eyes shifted. Slanted, pulling away from his mini circle, sipping wine as they somehow landed on me then. Our eyes held each others. No words. No reactions. Most especially, no approaches. And like that, I turned away. Focusing on my once interesting glass display now seemingly not anything so great, I walked away from it. Actually considering making a bid at this point, cause really, that was what I was here for, wasn't it? "It's high time to at least buy something." "Then you should. You must. How else do we make brag about doing charity here?" A voice cut in, fresh. Smooth.
