Sarah's POV“What's going on here?” Justin asked as he noticed the tension between the both of us. Well, I had no problem. He should have asked his so-called best friend to explain to him why she looked so pale after I walked in on her, in the middle of a phone call.I clutched the files in my hands as I held them across my chest, as I handed him the files and everything that concerns the K-group project.“I came to drop that off, Sir.” I said calmly, avoiding the meeting of his gaze with mine, I just didn't have the time to feel any surge of anger right now.Walking out of his office, holding my breath in tension . I tried to look poise and unbothered with what happened there.As soon as I slammed the door gently, it was like I just got out of a suffocating room into the room of survival. Still holding my breath, I immediately exhale in relief, heading back to my desk.My phone beeped, it was from my lawyer, talking about the same meeting Steve was talking about a while ago. We ju
Sarah's POVI took a deep breath as I slowly slotted my keys into the keyhole. Suddenly I heard my name from a distance.“Sarah!”. I assumed I must be hallucinating. I turned my keys to push my door open. I heard my name again and this time it was closer.I tilted my head as the voice was a familiar one.Unexpectedly I saw Diana charging towards me, she's moving fast and is apparently in a rage. I'm too stunned to say a word. In seconds Diana got closer to me and slapped me..I yelled in pain as I held my cheeks tightly. Her hands were strong, I didn't see the slap coming.“Why'd you do that, Diana?!” I ask in shock, still holding my cheek.My anger rose to the peak and I tried to control myself from retaliating.I had a strong urge to push her off the stairs but I looked around and even though my neighborhood is quiet anyone could be watching. It could escalate into something else. I'm suddenly distracted by Diana who begins to rant.“You little thing! You should be ashamed of yours
Diana's pov.I am utterly broken by Sarah's words as I run off in the wind towards my car. I am both angry and sad, it's getting late but I do not want to go home. I felt the urge to burn somethingI turn on my car as I zoom off angrily! The wind seems to be angry too as it blows angrily. From the chaos and dust my eyes catch the lights on a bar. I had no alcohol at home and I needed to drown Sarah's words that kept replaying in my head. It wouldn't hurt to grab a few cups at the bar and head home even if it rained. I had my car with me, so I thought. I pulled over as I parked my car. Grabbing my purse I stormed out of the car into the club.The environment was sensual as clubs never had bright lights but the most colorful dim lights you could think of. Sarah's words kept coming up in my head and I couldn't bear it anymore.I stormed towards the bartender who looked hot. He was shirtless and his torso was attractive, but he wasn't Steve.“Give me the strongest mixture you have, I nee
Diana's Pov“Someone please wake me up because this is not real.” My subconscious yelled from within.At this point I felt like the ground should just swallow me whole, I felt dirty, I felt filthy. I didn't want to be touched by any other man aside from Steve.“ What the hell is going on?” He looked at me with a smirk on his face as he slowly got up looking at me lustfully, I felt instantly disgusted that I would have gagged any moment. This was all Sarah's fault! If she had just let Steve be then this wouldn't have happened.All I felt was anger and resentment towards Sarah, and now. I feel like a filthy rag.I immediately got out of the bed, wrapping the duvet around me as I headed for the bathroom. As soon as my gaze hit the mirror to see my reflection on the mirror, I was a mess, even if I wanted to hide it..it was clearly visible from outside. A tear slid down my cheeks, I felt like a disgrace, like I had just broken the little trust Steve has for me.“You're going to be fine.”
Don's PovDeep in the heart of the woods, my car drove into the forest as I just couldn't get my mind off what happened the previous night, and I must say, she knew how well to handle me. Her moans keep ringing in my head as time passes.“Boss?” Joe called for the up tenth time as I was spacing out which was not the usual me.“What?” I frowned, turning my gaze to him, as he looked at me with a hitch of worry written all over his face. “What's with that look on your face, it's not like I'm about to die.” I said I was rather uninterested.“I didn't mean it that way boss, but you acted so differently after this woman.” Joe asked again , we were close and that was why he was my right hand man. You can say that I'm a rich and successful personnel in the city who commands power. As much as I am not the mayor, I had as much influence as the president himself.I was meant to have a business meeting at the bar when my eyes caught the beautiful damsel who was drowning herself in the multipl
Sarah's PovI was stunned for a moment, what the hell is his father doing in the company.“Sarah? He is the founder, duhh?” My subconscious says to me, I quickly snapped out of it as I stretched my hands for a handshake.But instead he stood there as he looked at me with contempt, his gaze could literally rip me off the dress I was wearing af for a moment I thought it did. My hand hung in the air for seconds as he continued staring at me like I had dirt in me.“Dad?” Just called for him to take my hand as I was beginning to regret stretching out my hand in the first place. It was an awkward moment. I took back my hand, before greeting.“Good morning sir.” I said halfheartedly, taking a short bow.“So you are Sarah Parker. I thought of you too high but from what I'm seeing, I am disappointed in myself.” He spat out, I felt hurt. Who says something like that to someone. It felt like he had an already reserved hatred for me without even knowing me first.“Dad....stop it! This is an of
Sarah's POV“Sarah.” He called, as he fell back towards his seat. I stood there with no words coming out. Whichever way, I just have to learn to work with him.Oh goodness gracious when has it been heard that two ex-couple worked alongside each other or maybe I should have told Mr. Louis Steve were once married and working with him could be weird but I didn't want to sound unprofessional. Now looks, who's already tired of just staring at his face?Me!I cleared my throat, I hate to say something. He was my boss anyway. For the first time in a long time, I wished Justin was my boss, I could still keep up with the silent treatment and cruel words but this? This is weird and awkward.“Uhmm Sir.” I began switching to honorifics immediately. “I was sent here by the chairman himself. And I'd love it if we are both cordial about it. This is just work and work it would be.” I stayed, gesturing with my hands to state my points better. But instead of giving me an answer, he sat there starin
JUSTIN'S POVI picked up my telephone as I dialed Steve's office number.“Send Sarah to my office right now.” I knew he was going to counter back so I hung up immediately. I do not know what dad and Nicole are planning but taking Sarah away from me was not part of the agreement.I stood up as I paced the length and breadth of my office . I was worried, what could I do now? It's not like we're both on good terms that I could just walk up to her to explain things.Shortly there was a knock on the door, I darted my eyes to the door, as I rushed to have my seat. I adjusted my shirt and tie, as I cleared my throat, using my most deep baritone voice to use.“So come in.” I said softly. I was awaiting her entry, as the doorknob turned but it wasn't Sarah that was sent from the financial department.It was Patricia..or Patty whatsoever.I felt Insulted, I felt displeased. A typical example of what I ordered versus what I got.“Sir?” Patty called as I just stared at her with a few frowns on
