Nick looked at me with hesitation. "But Stella, are you really sure about it?"I smiled at him with teeth out. "Of course I am! It will not take too long, I swear!"I put my phone on the table to record the conversation between Hailey and Nick. I dragged my feet towards towards the line and I could not help but to stare at them. I was kind of nervous because they seemed so comfortable with each other. But I have them monitored and later after my work, I will play my recording of their conversation. A few minutes later, I went back to our table and I immediately put my phone inside my pocket. I immediately kissed Nick on his cheeks and asked him. "Did you miss me?""How can I not?" he said."So may I know what you were talking about earlier with Hailey? Based on what I have seen, you two are getting along with each other so well already!"Hailey gave me a long face. "What the hell are you talking about? Are you feeling jealous over shallow things? We only talked about our past memorie
When I went back to my house, I quickly played the recording on my phone and I have concluded that Nick and Hailey planned to meet tomorrow after the work. It really pisses me off knowing that he is going to betray me like this. I am the one who only owns my boyfriend and Hailey is just a nightmare throwback for Nick. However, in as much as I would like to confront Nick, I know that he would still deny that there is something going on between him and Hailey. And because I am now superior to Hailey, I need to act more matured than her so that Nick will still choose me over to her. I am willing to forget about my friendship with Hailey if that is the only way I can be with Nick for the rest of my life.While I am eating in the middle of the night, my stepfather suddenly came out. "What's with the long face?" He asked me. I smiled at my stepfather, "there is something to worry about!""Would you mind if I sit down? I just want to talk to you personally!"I don't see anything wrong wit
"But when I confronted him earlier about this, he does not want to talk! And I am afraid that this is not the first time it will happen!""I understand where you are coming from, but it really needs a teamwork in order for a relationship to work. Try to talk to him if that what makes you comfortable!""How about you, if you were in the same position, are you going to confront the person who is flirting with mom or are you going to talk to her directly?""I will choose to talk to both of them since they are doing it together. However, I trusted your mom because she is matured enough to handle a relationship. This is totally different in your age, Stella. Your boyfriend is handsome and I know that there are many women who will try to steal him from you and it's gonna be challenging to trust him! But as I said, as long as he is not cheating with another woman or a gay, you need to put your trust in him!""Thank you, Peter! I know that you've got problems on your own but you still choose
Tomorrow morning, I went to my office at exact 6:30 a.m. The lights on different departments are still turned off so I went to office's cafeteria in order to have some coffee. Until this very moment, I still could accept the fact that Nick is upset with me!When I got my coffee, I quickly returned to my office and I was shocked when I saw Nick sitting on my table and looking at me with a serious face. Then he tilted his mouth to speak. "Are you surprise that I am here, Stella?" "Why are you here? I thought you were upset with me?""I told you already... we need to talk... heart to heart while nobody is around. In that way, we can assure that we have no future problems!"I closed the damn door and went to my area. I put my coffee on the table and leaned on my chair. "And what would you like to talk about?""I believe you still remember our previous chat!"I crossed my arms over my chest. "If this is regarding me stepping down to give way for Hailey, Nick... that ain't gonna happen!"
"Is that so? But why are you acting that way? I am very sure that Nick said something to you that makes you really sad. I wonder if he's losing interest in having a relationship with someone as immature as you are. Seriously, having a boyfriend like him does not suit you well... bitch!"I've really had enough of Hailey being a bitch to me so I returned those words back to her. "Well... I would rather be a real person in front of a bitch rather than being a fake like someone in front of me!""So you want a trouble again? Are you being so arrogant now because you are in that position? Because you stole Nick from me and broke our promise?""First of all, I am not starting a trouble here. I just want you to know that you are getting in my nerves and I know for a fact that you are the ones manipulating Nick to do something against me. I don't even think that it makes me arrogant if I'm being rude to someone who does not show me respect!"She looked at me as if she is confused. "What the f
I quickly defended Hailey from my dad's rant. "Please Sir Joseph, this has nothing to do with Hailey! I swear... my decision is not something to do with her or with anyone. Later after my shift, I will pass my resignation to you!"Sir Joseph looked dismayed with what he has heard from my mouth. I expected that he would do something to stop me from stepping down as the Chief Marketing Officer. "But what could possibly the reason of your resignation? Is it personal or you've been assigned to do a lot of works? I hope to get your true answer regarding this!""Well... I really am still navigating to do my job as the Chief Marketing Officer and I have come to realize that it is more stressful than my previous job. So I think I am too young to be stressed out that is why I am resigning from this position!""But, isn't it too soon decide on this matter? I believe in your potential, Stella! I know that you are capable of making a better decision on this matter. I know that it's so damn stre
"Don't worry Stella, we only talked about a few things and you should not worry yourself about a lot of stuff!""How can I not worry about a lot of stuff she is like a leech that follows you wherever you go?""Don't look at me like that. It's not even my fault if she is trying to seduce me again. More importantly, would you like me to take order for you or would you like to order on your own?""I wanted you to order for me. The same food and please order me extra rice!""Okay, I noticed that you are gaining weight because you are taking too much rice so I won't buy extra rice!"I frowned. "And now, my weight is already a big deal to you? Are you going to break me up if I became obese?""Of course! Although, do not get the wrong idea. You need to discipline yourself and control your weight because it will indicate whether you are healthy or not!""Nick... only boys have an issue like that with women. How about me? Even if you gain weight, I will still love you because of who you are. I
"No thanks! I am tired and all I wanted to do is to rest!"Nick did not answer me and he just waited for me silently. I know that he is upset so I no longer talked to him. Now I have come to realize that he is probably having an affair with Hailey but I need to confirm it with my own eyes, to see is still to believe! At 6:30 in the evening, I went to my father's office and talked to him again. "So what is your final decision?" he said, looking at me with serious eyes. "Because honestly, I am going to be very disappointed if you leave your position so I have realized that I need to revise your contract if that's what you really want. I will make your salary twice with how much you earned today!"I was not illuminated by the money he is going to offer me and I will stick with my decision to resign. "I am so sorry Sir Joseph but I have already made up my mind. I think that this is the right time for me to resign. Again I am so sorry but I have already made up my mind!"He let out a fr
