Helena’s point of view We got into the house and I was so captivated by all the aesthetic designs and how beautiful the house looked from the inside and out. Some ladies walked out of nowhere, took my bags, and welcomed us in. Ohh I guess we won't be just the two of us staying here after all That was a relief off my chest. I know Mr. Manchester won't do anything to me if we stay alone but I won’t be comfortable with the fact that we will be alone. “Mrs Helena, she will walk you to your room.” Mr Manchester said and walked away. “Welcome Ma’am, my name is Ruth.” The lady standing beside me spoke, which took my attention off Mr Manchester who was walking out of the living room. And I looked at her. She looked young, like she should be in her early twenties I guess, with a bright smile on her face. “Thank you, Ruth.” I smiled a little and we walked through the stairs to the room. The room was so spacious and a few aesthetic designs Ruth helped me arrange my clothes in

Helena’s point of view “That’s not Mr Manchester, look closely.” Scott turned and looked at him and turned back to me before speaking. Am I seeing things now? But I really thought that was Mr Manchester. “Oh, you are right.” I laughed a little, I was quite embarrassed, but Scott acted normal. But he really looks like Mr Manchester, or am I beginning to think otherwise We were finally done eating, we talked some more and then Scott finally took me home. “I would really love it if we do this often, I want to get to know you more.” He said with a thin smile on his face. “That would be nice,” I said and wished him goodnight before leaving his car and I walked into the house. Lisa didn’t hesitate with her questions immediately she saw me and I told her countless times that nothing was going on between Scott and me. The next day at work, Mr. Manchester acted so strangely, like he was back to his normal behavior, finding fault in everything I tried to do. What is wrong with this ma

Helena’s point of view “I'll accompany you to Italy, sir but I want to know how long we will stay,” I answered and he let out a thin smile. “It's just a two-week contract.” He replied and I nodded. “Alright, sir,” I said and he just kept on staring at me, which made me feel a little uncomfortable. Was there something on my face? “I will come over to the place you stay to pick you up this evening.” He finally spoke but that wasn’t what I was expecting to hear. “Mr Manchester, if I may ask, why?” My eyes slightly popped out. “Since we both will be going to Italy next week, we should go shopping together.” He said and I immediately choked up. What is all this?He gave me water and I had no choice but to take it so my throat won’t get sore. “Are you okay?” This attitude of being so nice these days freaks me out, I could see how worried he was on his face. “I’m fine, sir,” I said and he suddenly cleared his throat. Mr Scott wanted dinner with me tonight and I failed him once, no

Helena’s point of view Is this man hypnotized or what? “Why would you want that from me? Aren't you married?” I was so pissed off already, I never saw this coming. He suddenly frowned as I questioned him, rumors had been flying around the company that he was married but no one had ever laid their eyes on his wife. Since he is married, why would he want such an offer from me? I never signed up for this. “You are too loud, Helena! I'm not married so calm down!” He reacted and tightened up his face which made me gasp a little. I was kind of shocked by the denial. “And who told you that I am married?” He added and I bit my lower lip and remember when Betty told me he doesn't like it when someone talks about his marital status. “I-I thought you were married.” I stuttered and he just kept on staring at me with his jaw clenching. He stared at me for a while before saying, “I’m not, like I said, I'll reward you handsomely if you keep your mouth shut without telling any of your other

Ethan’s point of view From everything that has happened to Helena, I think I really need to stop stressing her out, from the doctor’s report she has been so stressed and I will blame myself for doing that to her. Seeing her at work the next day got me so surprised, she is indeed a strong woman. I really wanted her to rest but that's not in my power to stop her from coming to work, so it wouldn't look so obvious that I am into her. I stood and watched her talking to other staff, she looked very much okay now and she smiled so brightly. I wanted to move forward to ask her how she was feeling now but suddenly one of the new employees stopped her. She talked to him with so many smiles, her face never stopped beaming with smiles, she had never smiled so much to me like that before. I couldn't just stand it, so I walked back to my office. I got a message from the contract I'll be working on in Italy and it was finally finalized but there was just a little problem. I needed a partner

Helena’s POVIt was a man putting on a black suit and also black eye shades, I gasped a little. “You must be Helena Brooks.” His face looked so cold, he didn’t even let out a smile at least. “Yes, I am.” I answered and slightly furrowed my eyebrows. “It’s an order from Mr Manchester, that you should come with me.” I didn’t respond to him but rather I awkwardly looked at him. What’s all this about? What’s up with Mr Manchester and all this drama? “Please this way ma’am.” He pointed to the direction and I walked behind him. We got to a place that looked extremely empty. “There’s no one here. Why?” I asked the man who approached me but there was no response from him. We finally got to the entrance of a building. “Please go in, Mr. Manchester is waiting.” He instructed and I scowled at him a little bit. He didn't even look at my face and I walked in. There were so many empty chairs and tables everywhere. It was so empty. I haven’t seen a restaurant as empty as this before. I saw M
