A Little Like Fate 47~ Down with who?
DELIA My fever had reduced a bit and I was ready to resume work during the middle of the week. I had supposedly fixed dates with the three men and I waited for the worst. I wonder what Levi was thinking when he said that. I had already carried my bag and had gone outside when I saw Javan driving in. "About time." I placed my hands on my waist as I waited for him to approach me, just the scenario of a wife waiting for her cheating husband. The only difference was that I didn't have any weapons with me. "Where were you?" I asked, frowning the whole time. "Chill, I was in isolation." He said wearily. "I wanna go inside and yeah, the boss said you should stay home and not bother about work. At least, not after your big dates." He walked past me into the house. "In isolation? What's that about? Are you sick or did you catch some kind of deadly disease? And what's all this about me not working? I am perfectly fine, thank you." I ranted as I followed behind him. He plonked on the couch
A Little Like Fate 48~ Bruce
LEVI "Are you sure about your decision?" I asked Delia strictly. She seemed firm on whatever she had decided and that was why I still find her dumb. She lacked the knowledge to make the right decisions and that was why she will continue getting hurt. "Yes, sir. Bruce is the one I choose. We started something and we will end it, no matter what. He feels the same way too." She explained. "Alright. Whatever you feel is right for you but whatever you do, let him know of what we have discussed. Three years maximum." I smiled and dismissed her. I couldn't wait for her to see who Bruce truly is. I picked up my phone and dialed Javan's number. He picked up on the second trial. "Hello, boss." His voice came up from the other end. "Anything yet? I'm getting impatient." "He's refusing to speak, boss. He's not one to expose his employer that easily." I felt my mouth twitch as those words came out. "Cut his fingers and force them to eat it if possible." I half yelled and cut the call befo
A Little Like Fate 49~ Discarded
LEVI I arrived at my grandfather's manor quite late in the afternoon. He said he wanted to speak to me when he called last night. He mentioned me going over in the morning but I didn't have enough time on my hands so I arrived late instead. Better late than never. I met him in his lounge, sipping some wine and nodding his head slowly to the beat of the jamming country music. I met my brother seated there with a boring look. "You can go back, the time has elapsed." He said on noticing my presence. Grandpa could be a very hard man sometimes but he should also be able to understand that I was busy with my already fixed schedule. There was no way Ellie nor Delia could cancel. "Good evening, grandpa." I sat opposite him, my eyes never leaving his face. He didn't seem annoyed or anything. He just had an indifferent look on his face. "I'm sorry, meetings were already piling up for me and I couldn't cancel them on time. Please, pardon me." I begged, hoping he'd change his mind. He only
A Little Like Fate 50~ Making peace
DELIA My eyes immediately caught Bruce and a weird lady who is his 'secretary' all over each other. She straddled him on the couch while he grabbed her arse tightly. I took out my phone and snapped the two of them. I would post it later and caption it in a way that the two of them would be so embarrassed and never show their face without protection. "I should have known," I said bitterly and the two disengaged from each other in a rush. "Carry on..." I said, smiled, and walked out. I quickly uploaded the photo of them and the first reaction I got was from Devin. 'I would delete that later when my anger had calmed down, but for now, let them face the music.' As I headed for the gates, I heard heavy footsteps approaching me and I didn't need a soothsayer to tell me it was the cheating bàstárd. "Delia, wait!" He yelled but I paid deaf ears to him. He finally got to where I was and took my head and I slapped him out of instinct. I was angry, hurt, broken."Don't you dare touch me w
A Little Like Fate 51~ Change
DELIA Levi changed. He changed for the better and he let me resume my work but only as his PA. The marriage contract was unanimously burnt and we moved on with our lives. The only difference was that I got another best friend. Levi made sure I got everything I wanted. He gave me breaks and even reduced the workload by coming to the office frequently. He was a total sweetheart and I was loving the new him. It didn't take long before he convinced me to go on a vacation with him. He chose the destination since I didn't have anywhere in mind and after some weeks, we arrived in Paris, the most beautiful and romantic city in the world. I felt privileged and I was hoping to be productive during my stay there but on the first day, I was still sleeping. And Levi wouldn't let me rest. He was always buzzing my ears with loud words and it annoyed me. I had to cover my ears with the pillow before I could sleep. The next time he entered my room, he peeled the duvet off me and I sat up in anger
A Little Like Fate 52~ No internet day
DELIA "Will you stop that? It's not funny." I said with an unamused look on my face. "I think it's cute." He licked the last scoop and stretched the bowl for more but I took it from him and placed it in the sink. "If you won't help out, you should just chill in the living room watching Netflix." "Fine, fine." He groaned. "What do you want me to do?" He grabbed an apron and a hat and then stood beside me. I chuckled a little at his funny costume before getting back to work. ****"They're ready," I yelled to Levi who sat in the living room using his phone. I had the opportunity of peeping into his phone and I saw he was texting with several of his flings. I didn't know why it disturbed me but I tried to tell myself that it wasn't my concern and it was his life. He had the freedom to talk to as many women as he wanted. Besides, he had the money to take care of them all after they were done with their business with him. "Come on, Delia, stop thinking about it," I said to myself out
A Little Like Fate 53~ Intimate
DELIA Everything was happening so fast. "Levi, please, wait," I said breathlessly. His hands were moving over my surface and I wasn't comfortable with it. I managed to move away from him. "This--- This isn't right. You're my boss and I'm your assistant. We shouldn't be doing this." I said with a flushed face. I couldn't look him in the eye anymore. "I'm sorry." I turned and ran to my room. My heart was beating fast. What would he be thinking of me? I closed the curtains which I had opened earlier and shut the windows. I began to pack my things. If Levi was to make any more advances at me, I didn't think I would be able to stop him or myself. I packed up most of my clothes in my bag and proceeded to my foot wears. When I heard the door opening, I froze at that spot. Damn! Why did I forget to lock the door? Levi walked slowly toward me and stood behind me. "What are you doing?" He asked. "Leaving," I replied. He sighed. He began to move and I swirled to stop him from getting
A Little Like Fate 54~ Hurt all over
LEVI "Hey, good morning." I greeted Delia with a kiss on her neck. She was making breakfast for the first time since we got here. "Good morning." She replied. "Hope you slept well." "Why shouldn't I? I had a very good night and I slept like a baby. Of course, because you were there." "Oh, you flatter me too much." She joked and set the table. "By the way, I was invited to a function this weekend. I was able to get two invitations.""Oh, really? Who are you going with?" "Who else is seated here? You, of course." I nudged her"I see... Thanks though." "You're welcome. By the way, you need to dress as hot as possible. If possible, hotter than normal. There are some people I want to pepper that night. Hopefully, they'll be there." I grinned. I scooped some food into the spoon and attempted to feed her. Fortunately, she didn't try to resist. "I don't want you worrying about what people at the office would think about us, okay? It's normal for people who work closely to fall in love
