Chapter: Chapter Twelve: Crossed paths 2CROSSED PATHS 2Kevin's POVI walked over to where they were and yeah, my guess was right. It was really her. Her fierce looking eyes gave her away so easily despite her vulnerable state.The men were hovering around her, trying to touch her in inappropriate manners. She couldn't fight back much because of her weak condition. Since they were in a dark corner of the bar, it was difficult for people to easily sight them.Although, I had a dislike for women, I would not sit back and watch a woman been harassed. With a growing rage, I approached the men who reeked badly of alcohol and cigarettes.One of the men grabbed her shirt and fondled with the buttons of her shirt. His intentions were clear. I could not take it anymore. I yanked the man off her body and landed a hard punch on his face. He fell off, writhing in pains.The other man looked at me with anger, revealing his tobacco stained teeth as he spoke to me. The bad odor oozing from his mouth nearly threw me off balance."Who the h

Chapter: Chapter Eleven: Crossed paths "CROSSED PATHS"Kevin's povIt was Monday again, the busiest day of the week! Every Monday morning, I get greeted by a mountain of files and documents on my table, screaming for my attention and signature. Of course, I was a workaholic I had never hesitated to attend to the files. By the time I'm done with them, my secretary would walk into my office with his ever dark, blue suit and checkered tie tightly hung around his neck and with his iPad in hand, he would read out my schedule for the day which was usually a list of meetings with my executive teams, board members, investors, and other stakeholders. For the evenings, it was usually dinner with business partners or potential investors.As the CEO of Whiteland groups, this had always been what my Mondays looked like.

Striving to be at the top of the business sector was m

Chapter: Chapter ten: His forgotten lover(His forgotten lover) Kevin's POV I arrived at my house and brought out the gate's remote control. I pressed a button and the gigantic black gate opened. Due to my paranoid nature, I didn't employ any domestic worker. I did my house chores by myself. The gate got locked behind me as soon as I drove in. I drove straight to my spacious garage filled with latest cars. I had always loved cars. To me, they are the most expensive toys a person could own. Tired and hungry, I dragged my weary feet to the door and unlocked it, using my fingerprint. The door opened immediately, welcoming me home. I smiled satisfactorily as I took a glance at my luxurious living room. Unbuttoning my shirt, I walked to the refrigerator and poured myself a cup of wine. Slowly, I sipped my drink like one in a state of melancholy. Since it was already late in the night I decided to not bother with ordering foods. Cooking wasn't an option either. "I will order breakfast by tomorrow morning." I resolved and went

Chapter: Chapter Eight: A clash with NadiaChelsie's POVThe shooting of the movie scenes were easier and faster than I had expected. Nadia Grayson was such a talented actress no doubt. She ate her role perfectly, leaving no crumbs. The other actors and actresses were on the A-list, that is, they were all stars.They took on their roles really well and soon, we were on the third scene. When we were done, Mr Park gave everyone a twenty-minute break."The MYtip times, one of the sponsors of this series donated a food truck with varieties of dishes. You all can go there and have your lunch." He announced.Tired, Jamie and I walked towards the food truck, parked within the premises of the hotel."Gosh! I'm so famished and tired."

Chapter: Chapter Seven: A glimpse of herChelsie's POVJamie and I woke up very early the next morning to prepare for the day's work. Glen Motion Pictures had texted us the location for the shooting of the movie. All we had to do was to get prepared and go to the location. The location was at a hotel."I still can't believe that I'm going to finally set my eyes on Nadia Grayson." Jamie giggled excitedly in the cab taking us to the location."Lucky you." I responded with indifference.I don't get fascinated by celebrities so I wasn't a fan girl. Obsessing over celebrities wasn't just my thing.Jamie was the exact opposite of me. She would follow up stories of her favorite celebrities- singers, models and actresses alike. She attended concerts, runway shows and a lot of movies premieres and would seize every opportunity to take pictures with them.Jamie playfully gave me a jab in the stomach and looked at me."Ouch! that hurts!" I exclaimed, faking pains. "What did you do that for?"Jamie jabbed me again and laughed. "You don't
