Here, put this on,” Max said after 20 minutes in the store.

Kristen looked at him clearly unimpressed.

Max sighed and crouched down without another word. He grabbed her ankle and tried to force her foot inside the slipper.

Kristen yelped. “Hey! I can do it myself!”

He ignored her and pushed her foot further in...only to realize it didn’t fit.

Silence...

Kristen stared at him... then at the slipper. Max exhaled sharply.

“This doesn’t fit me,” Kristen muttered.

Max closed his eyes for a second before standing up

Kristen looked at him with amusement "You were so confident a minute ago," she teased.

Max shot her a look. "Do you want shoes or not?"

She sighed dramatically but followed him back inside. "Fine, but this time, let me pick."

Max smirked. "As long as we don’t spend another twenty minutes deciding."

Kristen rolled her eyes. "No promises."

They went inside and Max brought another pair of shoes to her as she met him in the aisle.

“How about this?” he said as he went down to try put

    Mrs. O took a sip of her tea and sighed in contentment. “Ah, nothing like a warm meal on a chilly morning,” she said and glanced at Max.“Oii, where did you get this one…” She placed her fork down and looked directly at Kristen.“Who?” Kristen asked as she widened her eyes and glanced around..Mrs. O pointed straight at Max.Max looked up with his fork frozen mid air. “What have I done?” he asked innocently.“Where did you see him from?” she asked again, her eyes narrowing slightly.Kristen smiled slightly and was about to answer when Max cut in smoothly.“We met in a very cool place,” he said with a confident nod.Kristen turned to him with her eyes widening in shock.Mrs. O raised a brow. “Cool place?”"Yes, very cool..." Max continued and forced a casual tone."I see," Mrs. O said, leaning back. "You need to change him… he’s not strong enough," she added and stood up while holding her bowl."What did you mean by 'cool place'?" Kristen asked.. looking at Max."Well," he drawled, cle

    “We are sorry for any inconvenience this might have caused you, Mr. Anderson,” the man said politely as he handed the keys to Max. “We will have your car delivered back to the hotel. Please use this in the meantime.”Max took the keys with a nod. “It’s fine,” he replied smoothly before unlocking the car and sliding into the driver’s seat.Kristen rushed out from Mrs. O’s store and she hurried toward the car and instinctively opened the back door. Just as she half entered, her head still poking in, she heard Max’s voice.“Do I look like your driver?” he asked as he glanced at her through the rearview mirror.Kristen froze, then quickly cleared her throat. “I’m sorry, sir.”She awkwardly stepped back, shut the back door, and hurried to the front passenger seat, sneaking inside as discreetly as possible.Max smirked slightly but said nothing as he started the engine.…...“Oh, Mr. Anderson… nice to see you again after last week’s meeting,” Mr. Creed said as he approached them in the hotel

    Mr. Jonathan Reeves another of the competitor stood up and adjusted his tie and cleared his throat.“Ladies and gentlemen, our project focuses on AI driven logistics, reducing operational costs by 30% while improving efficiency. With our software already tested in several markets, we guarantee fast results and high investor returns.”The screen behind him displayed charts and successful case studies. The investors nodded in interest while some took a notes.After a short Q&A, Mr. Reeves stepped down, and the moderator spoke. “Next, we have Mr. Creed.”Creed stood up with a smirk and walked to the front. He didn’t even look at the screen as he spoke.“Unlike some companies making empty promises, we deliver real results.” He paused, letting his words sink in before tapping his tablet. The main display lit up with statistics and recent projects. “Our technology is already in use by global corporations. We don’t ‘hope’ to be successful.....we already are.”The room stayed silent as invest

    UAECreed lounged in the pool, his head resting back as a woman massaged his shoulders. The warm water rippled around him, and he sighed, satisfied with his eyes closed..Then, his phone rang. Without moving much, he gestured for the woman to stop. She obeyed instantly and stepped back and excused herself quietly. Creed watched her walk away before picking up the call.A smirk played on his lips. “I told you he was going to fall for it,” he said smoothly, followed by a low chuckle.Mr. Oman’s voice came through the line. “As expected, he is slower than I thought.”Creed’s smirk widened as he leaned back against the pool’s edge. “And now, the investors are questioning his leadership. Just as planned.”“I got a call earlier from Mr. Ahmed,” Mr. Oman continued. “He said almost half of the investors are questioning the board...why was he even picked in the first place?”Creed let out a low chuckle. “Perfect. Let them doubt him. A leader who can’t control his emotions is a leader who won’t

    Kristen quickly wiped her tears and stared at him as she let out a bitter laugh and shook her head."You don’t know? I thought you knew everything. You’re Mr. Perfect, the one who never makes a mistake." She scoffed. "So tell me, why did you bring me here in the first place? To torture me more? To use me as your slave?"Her eyes burned with tears as she took a shaky breath. "Yes, I know I work for you, but that doesn’t mean you own my life! You don’t get to do whatever you want with me! You don't get to talk to me anyhow"Max looked at her but didn’t stop there as her hands trembled at her side…She clenched her fists. "I get it...We come from two different worlds. You have everything handed to you on a silver platter, while people like me have to work ourselves to the bone just to survive.""I stayed even when I had to go through so much because, of course, I wouldn’t find another job that paid more than yours. Life is unfair to some people more than others. You wouldn’t understand wh

    Kristen’s eyes darted to his hand, frustration bubbling inside her as the blood refused to stop.“Are you just going to stand there? You’re bleeding to death!” she snapped as she looked around in a panic for something to stop the bleeding.Max just watched her as he wore a smile without even doing anythingKristen groaned and quickly grabbed a paper towel and wrapped it around his hand. “Why do you even have to cook when you can just order for room service?”Kristen rolled her eyes. “Stop being dramatic!” she scolded, tightening the paper towel around his hand.Max let out an exaggerated groan. “But it does hurt! You have no idea how much pain I’m in right now,” he whined.And Kristen blew on and shot him a sharp look. “Then maybe next time, don’t go playing chef when you clearly have no idea what you’re doing.”Max smirked despite the pain. “But look at this you're finally talking to me.”Kristen huffed, letting go of his hand. “You’re impossible,” she muttered and turned away.Max gr

    After the kiss, they both felt overwhelmed. Kristen looked away as she felt awkward. "I...I think we need to get going before they come after us" she said turned away to face forward and took a small step."Yeah," Max agreed.As they walked, neither of them could stop stealing glances at each other.The awkwardness between Max and Kristen lingered throughout the night as they made it back to the hotel.Kristen walked ahead as she tried to avoid his gaze, while Max trailed behind, shoving his hands into his pockets.As they stepped into the elevator, the silence was deafening. Max glanced at her with a smile but Kristen tightly fixed on the glowing numbers above as she knew he was looking at him……When the doors opened to their floor, Kristen muttered a quick, “Goodnight,” before she quickly rushed to the hotel room and slammed the door closed.Max chuckled as he exhaled sharply and rubbed the back of his neck as he stepped into the hotel room when he entered she was already curled unde

    "Hello..Mr Anderson..yes Sir….your dad asked me to book you the next available flight back to Cali"Max leaned back in his chair as his jaw tightened. "He did, huh?" he muttered and tapped his fingers on the table."Yes, sir," Mr. Green confirmed. "Your father said there's no need to attend tomorrow's meeting. He believes the deal is already lost."Max let out a slow breath as his gaze darkened. "Tell him I’m not leaving. I’ll handle this my way.""But sir""That’s final," Max cut in firmly and ended the call. His eyes flickered toward the window……...UAEAre you sure about this, ma’am?” a gentleman in a black suit asked as he stared at the woman before him.She wore a striking red dress, her bobbed hair framing her face perfectly. Her red lipstick added to her allure which made her look almost like a goddess. A white pearl chain rested elegantly around her neck.“I flew all the way here not to be sure about it,” she said, leaning back in her chair.“Tomorrow, I get to show what my po

    "Let's see how you free yourself from this one," Lena muttered to herself as she slowly walked to a seat, her gaze still fixed on the man."Can't say no to the finest wine," the sugar baby man said, taking a glass from the waitress' tray. He sipped it and swaggered forward.….."Ah, I thought you weren't going to come," a man called out as he stopped in front of him."Haha, you know I never miss any party, Mark... late but never miss," Sugar Baby responded with a chuckle.The man laughed in response and gave him a friendly pat on the shoulder before turning to exchange a few words with a nearby guest.....Kristen nodded her head as she took a step forward after speaking with one of the men.Without knowing, Sugar Baby and her bumped into each other."So sorry, Sir," Kristen said, turning to face him."No problem," Sugar Baby said, turning equally.Kristen stared at him for a brief second, her eyes slightly blinking."My sweet Sugar baby," the man muttered with surprise as he looked a

    "Hahaha, come in," Mr. Morgan said, laughing warmly as he led a group of men inside.....all dressed sharply, clearly important like himself.As they walked in, two security personnel stood at the entrance, checking every guest.“Good evening, ma'am. May I have your name and invitation card?” one of them asked politely.“Kristen Roses,” she replied softly, handing over her card.The guard looked at it, nodded, and handed it back.“Welcome to Mr. Morgan’s 67th birthday celebration, ma'am.”Kristen nodded with a small smile, hiding the nervous flutter in her chest.“Shall we?” another guard said, stepping aside to let her through.Taking a deep breath, Kristen stepped inside the venue.She tried not to stare too much, keeping her head low as she made her way through the crowd.Inside, the ballroom is filled with elegantly dressed guests, all chatting and laughing as soft music plays in the background. Crystal lights sparkle from the ceiling.Kristen walks in, forcing polite smiles and nod

    "Welcome. This is going to be your new office. I hope it works well for you," Mr. Creed said as he stepped in with Kristen by his side."Thank you, sir. This is more than I expected," Kristen replied with appreciation."No need to thank me," Mr. Creed said with a faint smile. "I'll leave you to settle in while I take care of a few things."Without waiting for a response, he turned and walked away, a smile lingering on his face as he disappeared down the hallway.................Mr. Creed met Tyrese just outside the hallway, pausing briefly before both men stood in front of his office. Without a word, he opened the door and gestured for Tyrese to enter first.Inside, Mr. Creed moved with an air of authority, crossing the room and settling into his chair.

    Kristen’s hands shook as she tore off the wires attached to her arms. The monitor beside her beeped wildly, then went flat.“Miss, please....you need to rest!” the nurse rushed over as she tried to hold her gently. The doctor stepped forward. “Hey, listen. You just woke up. Your body is still recovering, and you’re....”“I said I can’t stay here!” Kristen exclaimed, her voice trembling and breaking. Her eyes darted around the room, wide with fear. “I don’t even know what happened to me…”She shoved the blanket away and swung her legs off the bed. The cold floor felt like ice against her bare feet, but she didn’t stop. Her head spun, and her knees almost gave way.The nurse caught her just in time. “Please, you’re not strong enough to walk. Just lie down”Kristen clutched the nurse’s arm, her low and broken voice she said. “I need to get out of here. Please… I can’t breathe.”The doctor shared a concerned glance with the nurse, then nodded slowly. “Alright,” he said softly. “We won’t s

    "We have about 6 hours until everything clears from her eyes," Charles said, his grip on the phone tighter as he made a step into the room. Kristen laid there motionless, still fully unconscious."Do whatever you want with her... dump her somewhere," the person on the other end said."Sure," Charles said as he ended the call.Charles slipped his phone into his pocket, just as the door creaked open. The lingerie lady stepped in, crossing her arms behind her as she surveyed the room. Her eyes briefly flickered over Kristen’s motionless form before shifting to Charles."You want us to keep her here?" she asked, her tone casual, but with an edge.Charles didn’t look at her as he answered. “No. They’ll come for her back.” He turned to her sharply. “Thank you. I’ll have the rest sent to your account.”The lady simply nodded her head, chewing her gum with a lazy smile. “Sure thing,” she replied, unbothered, as if this was all just another day’s work.Without another word, Charles turned and w

    “Hey, sugar baby,” a man in black socks muttered as he stepped inside, a grin tugging at the corner of his lips.Slowly, his pants slid down while his gaze remained fixed on the bed where Kristen lay unaware of his presence. He pulled off his white tee and tossed it to the floor, revealing a large belly that jiggled with every movement.“Sugar baby…” he said again, his voice low and thick as he climbed onto the bed, settling himself above her motionless body. He muttered "sugar baby" once more as he climbed onto the bed, letting out a soft moan while leaning over Kristen's body.“Are you ready to have some fun?” he muttered, a crooked grin spread across his face.He gently took Kristen's hand, raising it gradually toward his face. With a disturbing calm, he began sniffing along her skin, trailing from her wrist down toward her elbow. His eyes fluttered briefly as he exhaled, completely lost in the moment.When his head lowered near her breast, a soft, unsettling moan slipped from his

He turned and walked past her without even glancing back.Lena stood still, watching him go, but a small smile tugged at her lips.

    Kristen walked into the building with a hopeful heart. It wasn’t a grand place.......nothing luxurious.....but it was hers. A fresh start. A chance to prove herself.She smiled politely at the front desk and introduced herself, holding her appointment letter carefully. “I’m Kristen Rose. I was told to report for my trial this morning.”The receptionist checked the list, paused… then looked up.“Wait here, please.”Kristen waited, watching people walk by with files in hand and purpose in their steps. She imagined herself being part of them.Minutes passed. Then the HR manager walked out.“Miss Rose, may I speak with you privately?”Kristen followed unsure of what she might say. The door shut behind them.“I’ll be direct with you,” the woman began. “We’ve received an urgent message from one of our board members. He’s advised that your appointment be withdrawn with immediate effect.”Kristen blinked. “What? Why?”“I wasn’t given details, only that your presence here could compromise cer

Engines around them roared, ready to move.“Max, stop it!” Lena shouted, panic rising in her voice.“Kristennn!” Max called again. He pulled his head back in and reached for the car door, about to open it.The car jerked forward slightly with the movement of traffic, but he didn’t care.“What are you doing, Max?!” Lena cried, still clinging to his arm.Before anyone could stop him, Max was already out of the car, rushing to cross the road.He ran straight into moving traffic, weaving through cars. Horns blared, but he didn’t stop. He managed to make it across.Lena’s heart nearly jumped out of her chest. “Max!” she cried.
