DINNER

MIRABELLA’S POV

I paced back and forth in my room as thoughts of my discussion with Easton’s parents flooded my mind. It felt as though I was in a crossfire, and I couldn’t think straight.

This was the first time they had made such a desperate request, and I could tell it really bothered them to the point of coming to ask me for help.

“Mirabella, please help. We had an argument with Easton a few weeks ago, and he hasn’t visited us ever since. We were only trying to talk some sense into him, but he remains adamant on marrying that woman, Nicole. We had the strong feeling that the woman was just fooling him, but he wouldn’t listen to us. Please. Mirabella, could you talk to Easton about this?” Lucia’s eagerness kept resounding in my head.

Easton may have been a jerk to me during our marriage, but his parents have always been good to me. They treated me like their very own daughter, and always made me feel loved when Easton failed to. I could never resent them; they’re like my second pa

  • Dear Ex, Come Back With My Baby   TOO PERFECT

    EASTON'S POV I ransacked my wardrobe for the perfect suit to adorn. All my clothes were made by top-notch designers, and some were even the first of their kind, but today it seemed as though they weren’t good enough. I screamed at myself internally, reminding myself that this was just a simple dinner, and I was taking it too extreme by trying to look my best, but even with that said, I couldn’t help but try to look my best. I just felt I had to impress Mirabella.I admit that I felt a bit nervous to meet her in private. Although we’ve been working under the same roof for close to two weeks now, Mirabella only treated me like a co-worker. Rationally, I knew that it was the best state for us; it was better than her completely ignoring me, but on a personal level, a part of me wanted to be closer to Mirabella.When I had finally clad myself in my finest suit, I checked the mirror once more just to make sure everything was perfect. I brushed back a strand of hair that had left its posit

    EASTON’S POVI tried so hard to focus on the steering on my way back, but thoughts of my discussion with Mirabella clouded my mind. I didn’t know how to feel about it all; if it wasn’t Mirabella, I would have concluded that this was all a vicious attempt to ruin my relationship with Nicole.My parents have always been against my relationship with Nicole, right from day one, but I never paid their words any attention, as I assumed their disapproval was due to Nicole’s poor background. I never cared about her background because, to me, she seemed diligent, well-mannered, and ambitious. She also showed kindness to everyone around her, and seeing how much effort she put into her studies contributed to my willingness to help her.I finally got back home, and Nicole was waiting for me as usual. She dashed towards the living room with a bright smile on her face and wrapped her arms tightly around me. “You’re back! I missed you.” She said enthusiastically with a cute pout, and I forced a smi

    NICOLE’S POV I opened my eyes the moment I heard the closing sound of the door. A small frown settled on my face as Easton’s question resurfaced. “Would you still want to be with me if I gave up the company and married you instead?” Why would he ask me such a thing all of a sudden? Was he really planning on giving up the company? I can’t let him do that; all these will be for nothing if Easton gives up the company! My phone vibrated, and I picked it up reluctantly. It was a message from Broody. “Tick tock, dear daughter. I’m running out of patience.” I clenched my fist the moment I read the message. It all makes sense now! Easton was not planning on giving up the company; he must have asked me that because he was suspicious of me. It has to be Broody’s doing! My body tensed up immediately. What did Broody say to Easton this time? That old swindler has really become a thorn in my flesh! I stared at the message, thinking of possible ways to deal with this quickly. I need to get ri

    MIRABELLA'S POV I watched in silence as the old man got rushed into the emergency unit. He had lost consciousness the moment we arrived at the hospital. The police arrived almost immediately, as I had called them prior to our arrival, and Roman had gone ahead to talk with them while I stayed with Alfred. “Who is that old man, mummy?” Alfred asked when we were seated in the waiting room. “I don’t know, sweetheart, but I hope he’s okay.” I responded. Roman joined us shortly. “Any news from the doctor?” He asked, and I shook my head in negativity. “He is still in the operating room. What did the police say?” I asked curiously. “They said they'd look into the case and try to find the man's family.” Roman responded, and I bobbed my head. The doctor finally came out of the operating room, and I stood up immediately, eager to know how the old man was doing. “How is he, doctor?” I asked with a worried expression. “He is one lucky man to have survived after losing so much blood.

    ***EASTON'S POV***I felt a gentle tap on my shoulder and slowly raised my head up from the table. A small smile tugged at the corner of my lips when I saw Mirabella's face. She was dressed in just sweat pants and a hoodie and yet she still looked beautiful with her hair parked in a loose bun, allowing some strands to fall at the corner of her face.“Easton, are you alright?” Mirabella asked in a soft tone, laced with worry. I wasn't sure if it was the effect of the alcohol but at that moment, I felt like taking hold of her hand and never letting go. I guess deep down, I knew my greatest mistake was letting her go and now she was far beyond my reach.“Come on, let's get you home.” Mirabella said this and tried to help me up but I held her hand instead, and gave it a gentle caress. Her hand felt perfect in mine, and I realized that this was actually the first time I had held her so tenderly since our marriage. I had neglected her a lot during our marriage, I barely looked her way, and

    ***NICOLE'S POV***I quickly grabbed my purse and dashed out of the house the moment Easton's car drove out of the premises. I had waited patiently for him to leave for work so he wouldn't insist on driving me to my location.He had offered to take me to the hospital earlier but I declined, insisting that he had to go to work and I didn't want him to miss his meeting because of me. That was half truth. My main reason was because I needed to pick up something before heading to the hospital.If Broody is still alive, then I must make sure he stays silent. I was lucky enough to have escaped being seen by Mirabella the other day, if Broody should regain his consciousness and tell anyone what happened, then it'll be over for the both of us.I quickly called a cab and gave him the address of where I was heading. It was an abandoned warehouse and the best place to meet without being seen by anyone I know.I quickly paid the driver and alighted the vehicle the moment we reached. I brought ou

Who are you?” She asked, her gaze still lingering on my hands.“His daughter.” I responded firmly. “Is there something you need?” I asked her with a slight frown.“My apologies, miss. I just came to check his vitals.” The nurse said as she walked around to where I stood. I swiftly moved out of her way, making sure not to turn my back to her until I was at the door.“Thank you so much for taking good care of him. I'll visit again soon.” I said with a faint smile and the nurse gave me a nod and then began checking his drip settings and his vitals.I quickly left the room, heaving a sigh.

    ***MIRABELLA'S POV***“Well ma'am, you have nothing much to worry about. All his tests came out clean.” The nurse said with a smile as she handed the results to me.I stared at the sheets, feeling a bit confused. “But what about his fever?” I asked worriedly. I had rushed Alfred to the hospital the moment I noticed he had a fever, as I didn't want to take any chances. I couldn't stand seeing him get sick, I couldn't stand seeing him sad or in any form of pain.“Well it's normal for kids to develop a fever without any serious medical cause. These fevers are benign and often go away in less than two to three days.” The nurse explained.“So you're saying he's fine?” I asked, my voice laced with uncertainty.“Yes, just keep him hydrated, make sure he's dressed comfortably and keep monitoring his temperature. If it persists then we can run more tests.” She explained and ruffled Alfred's hair with a warm smile on her face.“Take care, kiddo.” She said to him before leaving the room.I tur

What's wrong?” “Nothing's wrong. I shouldn't even care, I mean I'm the one who pushed him away so I should not care whether or not he hangs with his new girlfriend or fiance or whatever!” I blurted out all at once, breathing heavily and Hailey stared at me in shock.“Okay, back up a little. What on earth or who on earth are you talking about?” She asked as she led me to the school's garden and we sat on the bench.I took in a deep breath before responding.“Alfred got engaged and —”“Wait what?!” Hailey exclaimed, cutting me off.“It's kind of a long story.”“That you need to tell me now!

    ~SANDY~I felt my heart shatter into a million pieces as I watched Alfred leave my room. The look in his eyes told me he was hurt. I had hurt him, and in doing so I had hurt myself as well.I wiped off the tears that had blurred my vision as I made my way to the bed and tucked myself in. I just wanted to sleep and forget this dreadful feeling but the pain in my chest couldn't even let me close my eyes.I kept telling myself I had done the right thing, and he would eventually get over it but then the thought of him actually being with another lady made me feel sick to my stomach.“It was for the best. I'll feel better when I wake up.” I said to myself and forced my eyes shut, pushing all thoughts of Alfred at the back of my mind. By the time I opened my eyes again, it was already morning.I took a quick shower and changed into a baggy white pants, with a black long sleeve t-shirt to match. I tied my hair up into a high ponytail, then grabbed my bag and walked out of my room. I bumped

    ~ALFRED~ I was greeted by the unfamiliar face of a middle aged man and a blonde lady who I assumed to be his daughter. “Alfred, join us.” Dad said as he gestured for me to sit next to him. “I'd like you to meet Mr. Byron Flynn, and his daughter Natasha Flynn. Mr. Flynn is the President of The Drew Special Care center and also a very good friend of mine.” Dad explained and I walked up to Mr. Flynn and offered my hand to him. “It's nice to meet you, Mr. Flynn.” I said with a slight smile and he nodded as we shook hands. My gaze met with his daughter and I found her a bit familiar but quickly looked away and made my way to the chair next to dad. “We finally meet again, Alfred.” She said with a smile and I furrowed my brows a bit. I did find her familiar but I had no idea where I had met her before. “You two know each other?” Mr. Flynn asked and she bobbed her head. “Alfred and I met during the JFK business orientation.” She responded and it finally hit me. “Oh you both met on the

    ~SANDY~ “My goddess! Sandy are you alright?!” I flinched a bit when I suddenly heard Mrs. Mirabella's voice and the look of horror on her face finally brought my back to my senses. “Oh no!” I gasped on seeing the shattered glasses and wine bottle on the floor. “I'm so sorry.” I quickly bent down to pick them up. “No, Sandy don't!” Mrs. Mirabella warned but it was already too late as the first glass I touched, made a big cut on my hand. I winced as I retracted my hand and Mrs. Mirabella raised me up immediately, staring at my bleeding hand. “What were you thinking, Sandy?!” She scolded as she dragged me away from the broken glass. She quickly removed the scarf she had used to tie her hair up, and wrapped it around my hand to stop the bleeding. “Go wait for me in your room, I'll clean this up first so no one else gets hurt, and then I'll dress your wound.” She instructed and the look on her face told me there was no room for argument, and so I bobbed my head and slowly went u

    ~SANDY~ I let out a heavy sigh as I finally sat my ass down on the chair. I had been standing for hours, observing the nurses and surgeons in different operations that were carried out today. I wasn't complaining though, I couldn't wait to finally be the one holding the scalpel. “Hey girl, how did your observation class go?” I smiled the moment I saw Hailey walking up to me. “All surgeries performed today were successful with no complications.” I responded and she bobbed her head then sat next to me. “That's good to hear.” “What about you?” I asked and she sighed. “A two year old boy was rushed in today. Poor thing had a bacterial infection and vomited everything he ate.” She responded and I widened my eyes in shock. “Oh my goddess, is he okay?” I asked worriedly and she bobbed her head slightly. “He'll be fine. He was prescribed some antibiotics, and with proper care, he'll be fine. I just felt sad seeing him cry so much.” Hailey responded and I smiled softly. She has alway

    ~SANDY~I woke up to the smell of bacon and toast and my stomach grumbled almost immediately.I sat up on the bed and realized Alfred wasn't in his room, so I went back to mine and freshen up. I had to be at the clinic today and so I quickly put on a denim jean skirt and matching jacket, tied my hair up in a neat bun and strapped my bag on before heading downstairs.“Good morning.” I froze the moment I saw Alfred in the kitchen.“W-what are you doing?” I stuttered, trying to keep my eyes on his face but the dude was shirtless! And not to mention his wet hair which lapped on his forehead, making him look smoking hot.My goodness it was too early for my panties to get soaked!Get your head out of the gutter, Sandra. This isn't the first time you've seen him shirtless.I tried to stay focused but my damn eyes betrayed me as it immediately dropped down to Alfred's rock hard biceps and eight pack abs.Stop staring! Stop staring!I scolded myself and finally forced my gaze back up to his f

    ~SANDY~I yanked my hand away from Alfred the moment we walked into the apartment.“What is your problem, Alfred?! Why won't you just let me be?!” I yelled, feeling frustrated.“Why are you working there?” He asked instead.“That's none of your business!” I yelled and he ruffled his hair, exhaling deeply.“Look, even if you wanted to work, why chose such a job that puts you in danger? If you needed help so badly, why not ask me?”“That is the exact reason I'm working, Alfred! Why do I have to always rely on you for things I could actually do on my own?” I asked and he furrowed his brows.“Why are you trying so hard to live a difficult life when you could simply just enjoy the luxury my family provides?” Alfred asked in a much more calm tone and I let out a scoff.“Exactly, Alfred. Your family, not mine.”“They are your family too, Sandy. Why can't you understand that?”“Because no matter what you say, I know very well that I will never be part of the Grey family.

What would have happened if I was just a minute late?!”“Then I would have handled it myself! I don't need you playing superman in my life, Alfred! I can take care of myself.” She responded and pushed me o

    ~SANDY~I froze the moment I felt his soft lips claim mine in a hot, searing kiss and almost immediately I shut my eyes and reciprocated, kissing him back with the same ferocious rhythm.My insides churned with desires as Alfred released my hands and gripped my waist hard, pulling me onto himself as he deepened the kiss, leaving me breathless, and gasping for air.I wanted to stop, I knew we shouldn't be doing this but I couldn't bring myself to pull away. Instead, I leaned onto him, wrapping my arms tightly around his neck as I felt myself getting lost in a sea of pleasure. I gasped when he suddenly lifted me up, parting my legs as he placed them around his waist and the next thing I knew, I was on the dressing table as Alfred pressed himself against me, and I could feel his arousal poking at my throbbing core.His hand trailed up from my waist up to my chest and just as he was about to undo my buttons, I opened my eyes and caught his hands, as I forced myself to pull away from the
