"I get it, dad! I get it!" I chuckled. I'm currently talking to my dad on the phone."Okay then, Dakota. I'll see you next month." He said and I ended the call.As a 24 years old woman, my parents constantly worried about me. They always wanted to make sure that I'm happy and that I'm doing okay. I was bullied at school and I was stressing out a lot. At first, I never told my parents about it. I don't want to stress them out because they already have a lot on their shoulders. After highschool, I told my parents that I want to study abroad and my parents let me. They were going to send me out anyway. I studied in London and I loved it. My family decided to move to London too because they somehow knew that I need them. I started to change when I start my diet. I started to go to the gym and eat healthy. I lose a lot of weight and became so much happier. As the youngest member of the family, I have two older siblings. One sister and one brother to be exact. Jane is an architect and Si
"Yes! I'm on my way now!" I told my assistant to quickly get me a car because we need to sign an agreement between 50 companies that decided to join the colaboration. I already discussed it with my dad and he agreed. I walked to the lobby of my office and my phone rang. "Hello.""Dakota." I was going to hang up but.."Don't! Don't hang up please.." Mark begged. Mark is my ex-boyfriend. I broke up with him because I caught him texting with another girl. He cheated on me."What?""Let's meet up, I'm in LA." He said and I wanted to laugh so bad. "No." I ended the call and got inside my car. Today, my driver drove me there because I'm not in the mood to drive myself. I'm so tired these days and I just got hime from Singapore yesterday.I went straight to Fort company again to sign the contract so the project can start sooner. I walked inside and waited for the kift to come. "Look who's here, miss feisty." I froze for a second but decided to ignore him. "I'm pretty sure you're not dea
"You blood sugar is low, you need to drink something sweet to help you boost it. Have you been eating healthy lately?" The doctor asked."Okay." I said completely ignoring his question."Are you her husband? Or-""I am." I glared at him when he answered that. Nico turned to the doctor."Please make sure your wife eat food that have enough nutrition, we can see that she has been lacking of sleep. Please watch her intakes." The doctor said and I sighed."Thank you." Nico said."Thank you." I smiled and the doctor gave me an IV that will finish for an hour. I brought the IV to go to the cashier so I can get out of here after it finish."Where are you going?" Nico asked."I'm going to-""I already paid it, you need to rest not walking around." Nico said as he led me back to my hospital bed. He made me rest and waited for the IV to finish. I closed my eyes and fell asleep. I woke up because there's a sound of alarm. The doctor checked on me again and let me go home. The nurse took the IV
"Speechless?" I asked and both of them just froze in place."Dakota.." Nico whispered my name."Now you know why I'm being bitchy right?" I asked and he was just.. speechless."Can you both leave me alone?" I asked and he shook his head."Look, I wan-""Want what, Nico? You want to hurt me again? I don't think so." I shook my head. "Can you leave us alone?" Nico turned to Zac and Celine. I looked at him annoyed and he took a deep breath before looking straight into my eyes. "Dakota, look.. I'm so sorry for what I did to you 6 years ago." He said and I sighed. "Okay." I said coldly."I'm sorry, Dakota. Please don't be like this..""Be like what? You want me to be nice to you?" I asked."I know I've been a jerk, I'm sorry." "Okay, I accept you apology." I said completely being a bitch."Dakota..""Don't give me bullshit, Nico. I don't want to do anything with you anymore." I warned and he sighed."What should I do so you can forgive me?" He asked."Get out off my face and let's just
"Okay! You two, this is the list of countries that we will visit. There's 10 in total, for now. We have Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Indonesia, Malaysia, Sydney, Singapore, HongKong, London and New York." Harry said and I nodded."I hope you two can work the time table and tell me what you think." He said."We can do it, just give us 2 weeks to settle it and we will report you back in no time." Nico said."2 weeks is too fast, you need more time to research. How about 5 weeks? I need you to not make any mistake so settle it slowly and make sure everything goes smoothly." Harry said"Okay, sir.""I have to leave to catch a plane, I'll talk to you two soon." With that he left the room. "The faster the better." I said."Take our time to do research, we don't want him to be disappointed in us." He said and I rolled my ryes. "Oh right! I almost forgot.." "What is it?" Nico asked."About the venue, they all have different sizes. I want you to confirm it too. Can you?" Harry asked looking at the
"Argh.. my precious lips." I whined and quickly took a tissue from my bag and wipe my mouth"I don't have a virus, Dakota." Nico said coldly"You disgust me." I glared at him"I'm a good kisser." Nico said proudly makes me want to puke"Let's not meet again, I'll send my secretary to you to finish our work. My secretary is pretty but she's too good for you so goodluck hitting her on." I stood up and took my bag and left."Do you think you can let your job go easily?" Nico pulled me"I am not, my secretary kn-""Can we work this professionally? Without our own problems? Let's set this hate thing aside, you want money right?" Nico said and that's a great idea really"Deal, no talking to me beside work. Adios bastard." I said and I continue to walk back to the building. Taking my car and go home. Driving my car home and suddenly there's a text coming. Who's texting me? I never text someone. I only messenger them or maybe whatsapp them.Arriving at home and quickly throw myself to bed. To
2 weeks later.."You are stupid." Celine said and I lay down on my bed completely frustrated"I don't want to work with him!" I hissed and Celine chuckled"He's hot now, you sure don't want too?" Celine asked and I shook my head"Not in a million years." I said"So today is the day that you should submit to him right?" Celine asked"Yeah.""Poor you, you have to go everywhere with him." Celine patted my head like a dog and I glared at her"I hate it.""You should just do it with him." Celine said"I can't even stand being in one room with him Celine." I sighed and she chuckled much more"I know." She lay down beside me and suddenly my phone rings. Celine took it and she gave it to me after looking at the caller ID"He's annoying." I reject the call"Take it, you have to hold your words." She said and it's too late, I already reject it."No."My phone rings again and Celine took it from me and answer it."Oh Hi Nico, oh yeah she's here." Celine gave it to me and I glared at her. I put
"Dakota." Nico caught my hand"Let me go!" I tried to let my arm go from his grip"Okay then if you're not going to listen." He lift me up and carry me on his shoulder"Yaaa!" I smacked his back"Stop complaining." He hissed and he brought me inside his office again. Throw me to the sofa and completely glaring at me. He lean to me and trap me with his arms"Listen, the work is still on and you're not going to stop working with me!" He said and narrowed his eyes"I don't want to." I looked into his eyes and we kinda have a glaring competition right here"Too bad, you ripped your work and I know it hasn't done yet so you have to go with me to the US and have a date with me." He smirked and I pushed him."So you want to have a date with a bitch?" I asked"A deal is a deal beautiful, remember?" He smirked and he suddenly played our conversation from his phone. He record it! My eyes widen and can someone pass me a puncher?"Come here, let's do our work." He walked to his chair and pull ano
