Meanwhile total mayhem had broken loose at Leo Ad Agency after Jessica Williams walked in with head held high, tower heels clicking and spotted Amber Honey enjoying being the centre of attention at the reception.Wearing a sexy pink and white co-ord lycra bodycon skirt- shirt officewear which seductively highlighted her perfect curves, her plump lips painted fuchsia pink, Amber Honey with her flawless pinkish skin and waist length blonde hair with Burgundy highlights and curls at the ends looked like a gorgeous Hollywood movie heroine.“Who are you? Why are you here?”, Jessica could not hide the shock from her tone.“Amber Honey. That’s my name, and I’m the new front office receptionist. And you must be Jessica Williams, a copywriter here, right?”, Amber Honey drawled her tone marked with disinterest.“Receptionist? Where is James, the earlier receptionist? Who employed you?” Not used to being outdone on the dress or looks front in Leo Ad Agency, and thinking herself as superior to e
Meanwhile, Amber Honey had passed on information to Theodore Hill about Leo Ad Agency’s current position, list of clients and upcoming meetings including the one with the management of Home Décor lampshades for an ad campaign.Not ready yet to disclose about this intervention to his daughter Sarah, Theodore Hill in turn had appraised his son Henry, and Sarah’s friends Amelia Robertson and Sophia Baker about the future course of action planned by Robert Hudson and his agency. Sitting in Sarah’s hospital room, Amelia softly informed her about Jessica and Robert trying to bag the Home Décor lampshades campaign.“Why don’t we kickstart our Butterflies Ad Agency with edging out Robert and gang and bagging this contract? It’s not a big money deal but snatching it from under Robert’s nose will sure put the smile back on my face!”, Sarah picked up the gauntlet immediately.“Are you in a position to write the ads ?”, Amelia asked, informing her that Sophia had recovered from her flu and was
Back at the Pride Healthcare hospital, a Rolly Royce bearing number plate 9999 came to a stop. When the car door opened, golden incredibly high heeled shoes with green bottoms caught the eyes of everyone standing by. A tall stunning woman with flowing dark brown hair, wearing an emerald green velvet business suit with gold trim and matching green-black and gold butterfly brooch emerged. The hospital crowd shifted to the side as she walked in with an aloof look, her heels clicking with every confident step.“Sophia”, Sarah squealed in delight as the gorgeous woman stepped into her VIP room.Next, much to the amusement of Amelia, Henry, and the nurses standing by, the cold woman suddenly kicked off her tower heels, almost jumped to Sarah’s bed and gave her a warm hug and kissed both her cheeks.“I missed you so very much my soul sister. Sorry for the delay in coming. I didn’t want to infect you with my flu”, Sophia gushed breathlessly, before adding, “ I have come with excellent news – B
“Sorry sir, I am not morally corrupt like your Jessica here”, Evelyn responded. "While I worked at Leo Ad agency I was totally loyal to you and the company. But I was thrown out unceremoniously without any fault or notice time. Now that I have joined Butterflies Ad Agency after going through their stringent recruitment process, I am not totally committed here. I will not cheat, nor betray the company or people who have reposed trust on me.”Then turning towards Jessica, Evelyn added, “I am a God fearing person and believe in Karma, so I tell you, Karma will catch up with you soon and hit hard. You have backstabbed an honest and good person who helped you. You will soon come upon misery.”Added with the pain in her entire body and specially legs feeling like jelly from the arduous climb, Jessica was livid hearing the exhortation from Evelyn. She took out her entire anger on the young assistant and also lunged to hit her,“ You penniless bitch, what makes you think you can sermonize me…”
Back at the hospital Sophia and Amelia were in splits after hearing about the meeting debacle and the punishing fourteen floor climb up and down by the dashing Casanova Robert Hudson, his prudish assistant Josiah Stewart and pompous femme fatale Jessica Williams.“Oh Sophia! You are superb. Were it not for you and Amelia, I would have lost faith in friendship as well”, Sarah sighed while having a hearty laugh. “I almost had a heart attack thinking you’ll lash out and spill the truth when Robert remarked that I will work for him again, but mercifully you kept your cool. Your pretty talons might have got eight layers of paint by now!”, Sarah continued laughing.“I would have actually lost my temper had you not barked ‘Cool’, Cool’ into my earphone”, Sophia admitted getting agitated again, “Imagine the audacity of the man! What does he think of himself! Just because he is handsome he thinks he is God’s gift to womankind or what? After using and dumping you, he got Jessica and is now scr
The mood of the three smug top representatives of Leo Ad Agency as they started their exhausting climb down after their unsuccessful meeting at the Butterflies office was in stark contrast to the happy romantic mood at the hospital.“The gall of that bitch! She offered to buy my company? Josiah, why is it that you have no data about her? Who is she? Where did she emerge from? And how can she make such a bombastic offer just after landing one deal? Who is backing her?”, Robert let out his steam once he was back on the dirty staircase of the building.“Ouch..”, Jessica cried as she slipped across two stairs. “This is worse than hell. I can’t walk another step”, she cried, taking up her broken stiletto heel. “Josiah carry me down”, she commanded.“No one will carry you woman!”, Robert thundered, “ you are a total disgrace, a blot for our company. Who told you to attack Evelyn here? And till date I could not fathom how you dared to attempt killing Sarah in a security zone! You really have
At the Hudson mansion, the evening and night were neither romantic nor erotic. Robert had stormed in with the foulest possible mood and thrown a stack of credit card bills in front of his parents and sister who were being served their evening coffee and snacks at the time. “Explain”, he growled, “You all know that the company is down in the dumps financially. No new client has come in, and old clients are leaving one by one, and yet both you spendthrift women have piled up exorbitant credit card bills! To top it you are eating out in super expensive restaurants everyday and have also added new maids in the house. Where are we going to find this money from? You want me to sell this mansion? Dad, you should have at least drilled some sense into them.”“What do you mean no new client is coming? Isn’t Jessica writing your ads and getting deals?”, mother Carol Hudson asked incredulously.“Not a single deal has trickled in after Sarah left. All Jessica’s ideas and scripts have got rejected
“Sorry. You’ve reached a number which is no longer in service”, a recorded message answered everytime Robert rung up Sarah’s number, no matter how many different phones he tried the number from.“Shit!, she must have changed her number. How can she be so foolish!”, Robert cussed.“The idiot must have got frightened with mom’s threats”, Larissa snickered.“Threats?”, grandpa Charles Sr picked on the statement immediately.“Tell me all that transpired after I left. Truthfully and in absolute details. Only then I’d be able to help you all and salvage the situation for the family”, the elderly man slumped down realizing the gravity of the situation. “What is there to get so worried about? I bet the ugly Koala bear is going to scamper back to our house by herself, begging us to take her back after she’s discharged from the hospital and after Henry Hill gets tired of her”, Larissa let her motor-mouth loose again.“ Hospital?”. “ Henry Hill?”, the old man was shocked beyond words.“Shut up
“We can’t allow this. It will be terribly embarrassing for both families. Besides contrary to what you say, I don’t see any motive. My sister has already left Robert Hudson and signed the divorce papers. Dr Sam will get nothing further by demonizing Robert”, Henry reasoned, “And now let me go and check on my sister.”Henry excused himself.“But sir..”, the Thai Police started to speak but was interrupted by Henry again. “I’m sure this is a wrong track. Didn’t the hooded fellow who carried out the dirty job say that the man who commissioned the job spoke to him in fluent Thai language? Sam doesn’t speak Thai at all.”“But he could have covered his tracks and hired someone to speak on his behalf”, the Police reasoned.“What the hell!”, Henry was angry. “This is a wrong track I tell you. I think that bastard Robert himself planned this whole thing out to come out looking like a saint and frame Dr Sam as he is desperate to get Sarah back after he realized she is rich.”“You should investig
“Sister save me from the hell cat”, Mathew whined beseeching Nancy, making her double up in laughter.“Sarah and grandma are the only two people who can make dad cower and take a back seat. Since Sarah is indisposed, try grandma. Though I have doubts whether she will listen to you. She’s been crying herself hoarse since the past two years that you’re getting old. She even spotted a grey hair on your head!”, Edward laughed at Mathew, trying to scan through his thick dark brown hair and find more greys.“Goddammit! I’m just 28. There was no grey hair on my head. I’m sure you guys put some powder and instigated grandma!”, Mathew retorted, making even the matronly Rosie laugh and shake her head at the bantering. She loved the Hill family children and knew that Isabella’s coming into the family would spell bad news.“Just because I don’t have a steady girlfriend doesn’t mean I can be paired with just anybody! Am I a cow that the Hills bought which can be sold and led by the noose to be fas
Chapter 47 :Isabella Sinclair groaned and palmed her head as she opened her mobile and unblocked Jessica Williams. Her eyes rounded in shock seeing the super hot Mathew Hill with another woman. She had been busy visiting top designers for the super rich and shopping for her attire and accessories for the evening dinner with the Hills through the past few days which had left her exhausted. She was getting a body massage at a luxe spa when Jessica’s irritating phone calls started disturbing her.To Isabella, Jessica was a pest, always sweet talking her to somehow slide her way to bag some projects which the Sinclair Industries might throw like crumbs to a stray. As Jessica couldn’t manage any appointment with her canny father, shrewd business magnate Albert Sinclair, she was desperately wooing the daughter to make a side entry. Isabella however did not generally mind the sycophancy as it gave her ego boost and also added to her string of followers, but sometimes it got to her nerves. L
Sitting in a dark corner of the luxury hotel’s night club, Jessica who was waiting for her date for the night who had not arrived yet, spotted Sophia Baker and her beau in their romantic reverie. Her entire being started burning with jealousy.Why does everyone she knows manage to ensnare some magnificently handsome and young men while she has to wait for a potbellied middle aged man to date and pay her bills?, she cursed her fate, wondering who the demi- God lookalike drool worthy man was.She bent over to a hustler sitting in the adjoining sofa with gaudy make –up, similarly waiting for a client.“Hi Anne! Do you know the man dancing with that slut in white gown? I kinda know her, so curious about who she managed to screw.”“Oh my God! He is Mathew Hill, the middle son of business tycoon Theodore Hill. Is he a decillionaire?”, the hustler gushed. “Who is that whore? How did she manage to wrap the walking stack of dollars around her cunt? Why can’t I ever get such luck? God !”, she
Chapter 45 :Mathew Hill, the second son of business tycoon Theodore Hill was introvert by nature from his childhood. Cocooned in himself, he preferred spending time playing and watching different sports. From soccer, tennis to car racing, parachuting, skiing and water sports, he excelled in every sports and even represented his University in some of them.Additionally, his business acumen was the sharpest among the three brothers, with some business heads vouching that his astuteness, acumen and business foresight was even better than the shrewd Theodore Hill.Blessed with chiseled features just like his other two brothers, tall and toned physique, deep set aquamarine blue eyes, sun tanned skin and dark brown haired Mathew had branched out the Hills Industries into the power sector, solar manufacturing, defence and aerospace.His aura and reputation were such that very few could fathom that he had a fun side to his character as only a handful of people apart from his family and sele
“Madam I think we should inform Sarah about this development”, Rosie spoke out the moment the troublesome conniving duo left.“How many times have I told you Rosie Ma not to call me Madam! You call my husband and his brothers by name, Sarah by name. You’re a mother figure to all of them. They call you Rosie Ma. How and why am I different?”, Nancy’s cold demeanor disappeared the moment the door closed and she hugged Rosie.“Let me call you Madam. You’re the eldest daughter-in-law of the family and are the rightful lady head of the Hill empire after the death of Mrs Hill”, Rosie said wiping a tear. “Edward your husband was in middle school and the others were younger when their mother died so they fondly started calling me Rosie Ma and have continued ever since. They have showered lots of affection on me and I never felt the need to have my own children. You too are like a child to me. Also like the Hill children you too are humble, kind, respectful and very affectionate. I am blessed.
Meanwhile, mayhem had broken loose at the Hudson Manor after Robert’s mother Carol Hudson and sister Larissa learnt that Sarah was Theodore Hills’s daughter and also the world famous author Honey C. whose books earned enormously and who was pursued by Hollywood film producers to sell them her book rights !“We have done hara-kiri mom!”, Larissa whined.“ Who would have ever thought that obese koala bear who slogged day and night without complaining is someone born with a golden spoon in mouth and had a battery of servants and maids at home to do the menial jobs she did here?”, Carol palmed her head in dismay.“Cornelius, advice, what can we do now to somehow get into good books of the Hills family?”, Carol cried wringing her hands. “Mercifully Robert has not yet finalized the divorce so legally Sarah is still Robert’s wife. Maybe we can capitalize on that?”“Foolish woman, Sarah has signed the papers. It is your son who is dilly dallying. If the Hills get on that, the divorce will be
Chapter 42 :“They took your mobile forcibly? What’s happening?”, Amelia exclaimed.“This is getting highly curious. The Thai Police showed us footage of Robert pushing Sarah. They said someone had anonymously sent them the footage not wanting to be involved. Was that fake?”, Henry asked flabbergasted.“No worry. No worry. I have another mobile”, the old woman vendor gave the two a toothless smile. I transfer footage there. I show you if you buy me a mobile”, she said.“We will”, Henry promised.Soon the woman brought out another mobile hidden under the folds of her dress.“New Mobile?”, she asked smilingly. Henry paid her fifty thousand Baht “Too much”, the old woman returned forty thousand Baht to Henry saying “Only 10,000 Baht for very good phone.”Amelia hugged the woman touched by her honesty and told her to keep the money as gift, but the woman wouldn’t take more than 10k.She next showed the young couple a video wherein the tourist was maybe capturing the scenic view. It was a
Chapter 41 :“Milly! You think you can hoodwink me with your hair bleached golden?”, Peter had walked in breaking Amelia’s reverie.Amelia jumped up in shock with her mouth opening like a goldfish.But before she could utter anything, another rich baritone interrupted.“Who are you calling Milly? You’re making a mistake Mr Publisher, Peter. She is my fiancée, Amelia, a childhood friend of both mine and Sarah’s. We all grew up together”, Henry walked in and stood in front of Peter, with his taller built dwarfing the man with brooding and crafty grey eyes.Amelia startled in shock. Fiancée? Grew up together? Why was Henry covering up for her?Dr Sam walked in next adding to Peter’s discomfiture. “We understand your concern for Sarah, writer Honey for you. Rest assured, we will inform you the moment she recovers, but for now, lets not crowd around her, and importantly, not say anything that might make the current situation more stressful for any of us. We are going through a bad time Mr P
