Jane’s POVThere are two crucial events that happened to me this week.First, Eric was convinced that Eugene is his son and he made a deal with me before signing the contract.Second, I got a job in the new flower shop in front of our apartment building.If there would be another one crucial event for this week, then it is telling my son about Eric’s condition.“Eugene,” I called my son.“Yes, mom?” he answered as he looked back at me with a pencil in his hand. He was practicing how to write his full name on his 1st grade paper.‘It feels weird to see him practicing how to write his name again. In the present time, he’s already solving difficult math problems.’While looking at his writings on his paper, I sat beside Eugene.He will probably decline his father’s condition. Still, I believe Eugene has the right to decide about this. Thinking back then, I always made decisions without asking his opinion. This time, I should consider his feelings.[“What should I expect? Mom does not car
The servants of the Desmond mansion were so busy early in the morning. They were told that the young master of the house will visit home. Therefore, they cleaned the house, prepared his former room, cooked his favorite foods, and made sure that everyone was present when he arrived.“This will be your first-time seeing Sir Eric, right?”“Yes,” the newest maid replied. “I heard that it’s been almost months since the young master went home. Why did he not visit frequently?”Before answering, the maid looked at her left and right. Then, she leaned closer and whispered, “It is because Sir Eric and his parents are n…”“The two of you.”Both flinched at the voice of the head maid who caught them whispering in the empty hallway of the mansion. Slowly, the pale maids turned around and what they saw next was the unsatisfied expression of the head maid.“What are you still doing here? The young master arrived. Quickly go.”“Yes, ma’am!” they said in unison before dashing towards the entrance.Sig
Once Jane told Eric that Eugene wanted to see him, they were fetched by Eric’s secretary on the way to the Geelq company.With secretary Byron’s help, Jane and Eugene entered while avoiding the eyes of other employees with the help of Byron. They used a pathway that only Eric used, therefore, they did not meet any of the employees working in the building.Jane held her son’s hand as she watched the number on the elevator soared up. She looked around without familiarity, as this is her first time entering a tall building. Everything seemed so unreal.Meanwhile, secretary Bryon took the small time to gawk at the little boy who resembles his boss. Even without the result from the DNA test, Byron could tell that Eugene is really Eric’s son. From the boy’s blue eyes, pointed nose, thick brows and shape of the lips, Eugene is the carbon copy of the Geelq’s CEO. If there are features that Eugene got from his mother, then it is his pale skin and black hair.Sensing the intense gaze from the s
Jane’s POV It’s been weeks since I started working in Sir Lance’s flower shop. I couldn’t imagine that I will work as a florist just like what I dreamt before. It makes me feel blissful and excited even though I am not the owner of the shop.My heart raced every time I saw the colorful flowers before my eyes, and when the scents reached my nose, it provided me with a moment of serene peace. Even if the sun is scorching out from the glass window, I could feel the endless spring inside the shop.Those short days I spent working here have blessed my heart and proved my fondness for this field. But today, although being inside the flower shop is a bliss, I couldn’t help but to worry about my son.“Nothing will happen to Eugene, right?” I asked myself after checking the screen of my phone for the 6th time.I received no new messages, besides the multiple texts from the load network which kept on reminding me to pay the last load bill that I borrowed two months ago. Aside from that, I got
Third Person's POV For lunch, Lance ordered hamburger, fries and coke. Meanwhile, Jane brought a lunch box that she prepared early in the morning. It’s almost been weeks since Jane worked in the shop. Lance and Jane’s first encounter was great, but because their age gap isn’t big and they have opposite genders, there were times they felt awkward together. Was it because Jane is a quiet person? No. She is talkative. However, there are many things bothering her these past few days. In fact, she’s still scared that everything is just a dream and she might wake up someday. And just now, she met Eric’s fiancee. ‘Who composed the song ‘It’s a small world’? That person is a genius,’ Jane thought with a sigh. While she was in deep thoughts, the guy beside her glanced at her fingers. From day one, Lance was curious if Jane is married or not. He usually does not care about these things, but since she’s his employee, he thought it is fine to be curious. “Jane,” Lance called. Jane place
Jane’s POVAs soon as I finished my work in the flower shop, I went back to the Geelq company to fetch my Eugene. Secretary Byron gave me a fake ID to wear so I can disguise myself as one of the employees.“Miss Jane, I am sorry that we are using the main hallway. Something went wrong with the elevator we took this morning. So, they are currently fixing it,” Byron apologized.I waved my hands mid-air and said, “No. It’s alright. I’m fine walking.”“But I am sure they will fix it soon. We can use it on our way back.”“Right. Thanks.”I continued following Byron’s tail here in the hallway of the company. There were many employees around the building and they were busy on their own so no one gave me any attention. And that’s for the better.While walking in silence, I fell into deep thoughts again.Since this morning, I couldn’t stop thinking about Eric’s fiancee, Haidee Wren.‘Pretty, kind and elegant.’ This is how I describe her.I have nothing against the woman whom Eric will marry so
When the door of the office opened, Eugene’s eyes brightened. He missed his mother so much! And so, he was saddened to see Secretary Byron instead. Pouting, Eugene slouched on the sofa while Byron walked closer to the CEO. “Sir,” Byron whispered to Eric. “Miss Jane came here.” Eric glanced at the little boy. ‘Before they reunite, I think I should talk to her first,’ Eric thought. Eric stood up from his seat and said to Eugene, “I need to talk to someone. Stay here.” The stubborn kid just snubbed him and pretended as if he heard nothing. Their last conversation went well. But that does not mean Eric has won his son’s favor. Eric walked towards the exit. As he held the doorknob, Byron whispered another report. “Sir, I have something to tell you first.” “What is it?” “Actually, before we came here, Miss Jane heard the employee’s conversation about you and your fiancee, miss Haidee.” Eric has no plan to hide this from Jane. However, at least, he does not want her to know this
