“So, how was school today?" Giselle asked her kids as she went through their school bags.She had just gotten back from work, and they were all in the living room. Blaire and she were seated on the sofa, and Ayla was on Blaire’s lap.Blaire was busy with Ayla’s hair."It was annoying," Archie said, standing in front of Giselle, frowning.Blaire chuckled."Why do you say that, baby?" Giselle asked."I hate that school," Archie replied."But you just started. I am sure you will love it as time goes," Giselle said, taking out his books."No. I hate it already," he insisted, folding his arms, which made her chuckle a little."What about you, Ayla? How was school?" she asked."It was awesome," Ayla said.Giselle hummed."It is a lie. It was annoying," Archie retorted."Speak for yourself, Archie,” Ayla yelled back."Okay! Both of you had a different feeling about school today. We get it," Blaire said, making Giselle chuckle."School was good," Ayla affirmed."She is saying that because she

“Will you pick us up after school, Mum?" Archie asked as Giselle arranged his uniform."No, Auntie Blaire will pick you," she replied."Why not you?" Archie whined."Because I will be working, okay?"He made an unhappy face."Will you buy chips for us after work, Mum?" Ayla asked."Yes, baby. I will remember that," Giselle said, dusting her hair a little."Alright, off you go," she said, kissing their cheeks."I love you.""We love you too. Bye!" they said as they walked toward the school building."Bye," Giselle sang, waving at them. She watched as they entered the building in their adorable uniforms.God, they are so cute. Archie’s shorts are really bigger than him. She would handle that later.Right now, she was already late for work.She quickly boarded a bus and, not long after, arrived at the company. She walked into the building and headed up the stairs to Xavier’s floor. Thank goodness his office was not on the upper floor.She would have to take the elevator up there. Her leg

“That is not going to happen," Xavier said.Harley scoffed. "What, you don't want me to take the job?""Not that. She can't be your assistant. That is not going to happen," Xavier replied, scowling at Giselle.Giselle’s heart ached severely. Xavier is so full of hate. The Xavier she knew was long gone.He is never coming back."But I have the job, right?" Harley asked."Yes. It is yours. It has always been," Xavier confirmed."Fine then. Whoever I hire as my assistant is totally none of your business," Harley stated, making Xavier’s face twitch.Arabella scoffed in disbelief."Giselle,” Harley called, making Giselle look at her."Will you like to work with me?" Harley asked.Giselle was about to speak but..."Harley, stop testing my patience," Xavier snarled, making Giselle look at him. He was really angry."Giselle,” Harley called again.Giselle looked at her.Harley raised a brow at her.Giselle nodded."Good. So, CEO, my boss, meet my executive assistant, Giselle Harrison," Harley

That name rang a bell, but she couldn’t quite remember why. His charm was making it hard to think."I presume you are here to get some dresses for your fine self," Damien said, making Giselle's cheeks heat up again."Uh... yeah. Ish," she muttered the last word, nervously moving a strand of hair behind her ear."Giselle, I have been calling you," Harley said, approaching her. She stood beside Giselle with a blue dress in her hand and looked at Damien. "Oh, hello," she said, smiling. Giselle bet Indy was as intrigued by his charm as she was."Hello to you too. I guess the universe decided to bless my eyes with beautiful women today," Damien replied.Harley chuckled. "You are cute.""Thank you," Damien said.Giselle looked between them. “Um, this is Harley, my sister in...""Her sister. I am her sister," Harley interjected, making Giselle furrow her brows as she extended her hand to him."Nice to meet you, Harley. I am Damien Walker," he said, shaking hands with Harley."An alpha name f

AT XAVIER’S HOUSE "What do you mean you can't stop her?!" Arabella asked, making Xavier heave a sigh.They were both in his room, ready for bed, but she had decided to bring up that morning's incident."It is your company. She can't dictate things for you, Xavier," she said, standing a bit far from the bed where he was seated."She is the genesis of all I have, Arabella," he replied.She scoffed."I am who I am today because of her.""So what?" she retorted.Xavier scoffed in disbelief."Just because she introduced you to her friend who helped you doesn’t mean she can do anything she wants in your company, Xavier. She brought the source, and you grew it with your smartness. Stop giving her all the credit.""I am not giving her all the credit. Can you stop?""No!" she snapped.He rubbed his temples tiredly. "Arabella, please, I had a long day at work. I don't need this right now.""No, Xavier. We have to talk about this now!"He heaved a sigh."Did you see the way she spoke to me? Hel

Giselle locked eyes with Xavier from where she stood. He was literally gawking at her.Deciding to give a little courage, she flipped her hair proudly, smiling a little as everyone stared at them.But she was only enjoying one person's stare."We were working on something, weren't we, Giselle?" Harley asked loudly, making Giselle look at her. Harley was dressed beautifully as always. Giselle bet all eyes were on her in particular. They hadn't seen her looking this way before."Yes, we were. Sorry for the lateness," she said, looking at everyone.Harley chuckled as she leaned closer to Giselle."See the way he is staring?" she asked, making Giselle look at Xavier."I see it now," Giselle replied."He is more speechless than I thought," Harley said, chuckling as she stood straight.Giselle smiled."Alright, let's begin!" Harley said out loud, and the workers continued with whatever they had been doing before the interruption."Let's go say hi, shall we?" Harley asked, motioning towards

Giselle's heart pounded as Xavier got closer to her. His piercing blue eyes on hers made her very uneasy.Seriously, why is he here?!"Xavier...""What the fuck are you wearing?" he retorted.She was taken aback by his question.Was that the reason he followed her up here? To ask her about her dress?He was scowling at her.She managed to put on a smile. "I am wearing a dress. What? Do you like it?"He clenched his jaw angrily. "Don't fuck with me, Giselle," he snarled.Giselle shrugged. "What did I do?"He closed his eyes and opened them as if trying to suppress his anger.What was with him?"What is it with you and my sister, huh? Why the fucking foolishness?" he asked.She scoffed. "Foolishness? Your sister employed me as her assistant. I don't see any foolishness in that. Why does it upset you, huh?"He scowled at her."What? Do you hate the fact that I am no longer slaving around for you or cleaning like you wanted me to?" she asked, and the next thing he did was grab her arm, ca

Just as she had thought. That stranger was her twins' father. The DNA test results had just proved it.Her heart tightened severely as she looked at the results."I am so sorry, Giselle," Cameron said, drawing Giselle's attention."I know you wanted Xavier to be their father," Cameron added.Giselle shook her head. "It's okay. I did want that, but it is clear now. Everything ended between Xavier and me a long time ago. These results just confirmed it," she said, dropping her gaze as tears threatened to spill.Cameron quickly collected the results from her, making Giselle look at her.Cameron was staring at something behind Giselle. "Xavier’s sister is coming," she whispered, causing Giselle's heart to drop."Is something wrong, Giselle?” Harley asked.Giselle turned to her. "Huh, nothing. Nothing is wrong. Just talking with my friend," she replied.Harley folded her hands and looked at Cameron."Hmm, friend. Cameron, right?" Harley asked."Yes. Doctor Cameron, it is nice to formall

Loads of regrets washed over her as he smirked at her.She felt terrible.She felt dirty.She felt shameful.She felt pissed beyond anything. She pushed him away, and he almost fell."You bastard!" she yelled, pushing him again."Don't you ever come near me again!" she almost cried, running out of the kitchen.She ran toward the restroom and entered one of the stalls. Sitting on the toilet seat, she covered her face with her hands.She cried silently, feeling very awful.That didn’t just happen to her.He was a devil.He was a bastard!She hated him!She hated him so much.What is wrong with you, Giselle? How could she let him come near you like that?How?!What is wrong with you?!She hugged herself, sniffling.She felt so pathetic.She couldn’t believe she let this happen.She felt very awful.Damn you, Xavier.Damn you!*******After some minutes in the bathroom, she headed back to the studio. She managed to compose herself before stepping out.She still felt awful, but she had to

Giselle turned her gaze away from Xavier just as Damien pulled away from the hug. He gave her a pleasant smile, and she returned it, though a wave of nervousness still lingered beneath the surface.She felt exposed beneath the dress, knowing there was nothing underneath to shield her, though the fabric did its job—barely. The slit ran dangerously high.Harley had picked the dress for her.In fact, Harley had orchestrated everything. She had intentionally caused delays in their preparations and misled Rob with false information.She’d wanted to mess with Arabella a little, claiming Arabella would fall for the misinformation and act immediately.Giselle had her doubts—but looking at Arabella now, caked in makeup and visibly fuming, it was obvious she had taken the bait.It was actually hilarious.“So, what do you think, Damien?” Harley asked.Damien shook his head slowly, his eyes still fixed on Giselle with awe, much like the others in the room.“I think I’m going to make a lot of sale

Ava bit her lips, regretting asking the question. Well, she can't back down now. She has to finish what she started.She couldn't ignore the signs. Her curiosity had to get the best of her.She seriously can't believe Giselle is here and in front of her.The same Giselle her mean girlfriend hates so much."Um...Cameron is an old friend. She talks about her friend called Giselle sometimes." Ava said.Giselle’s face twitched."So I wanted to know if you are the same Giselle she was talking about." Ava said."Yes. Cameron is my best friend." Giselle said, smiling a little.Ava is amazed by that.Giselle is not as she expected. She just called Cameron her best friend.And happily too.Giselle is instantly reminded of the little issue between her and Cameron."But we.....," she paused, looking at her fingers but looked back at Ava. "We are not in good terms."Ava nodded. "Really? Mind telling me why?Giselle shrugged but furrowed her brows a little as she recalled something."Wait, are you

Giselle furrowed her brows as Ava continued staring at her in a blank but strange way."Do you know her?" Elodie asked Ava."What? No, no. Her name is just familiar," Ava said, extending her hand to Giselle and smiling.They shook hands."It is nice to meet you," Ava said."Same here," Giselle replied, smiling a little."So, where did you and my dad meet?" Elodie asked Giselle."I told you, princess," Damien said."I know, Dad. I just want to hear it again, but from her," Elodie said, smiling at Giselle.Giselle let out a chuckle. "We met at the mall. He was buying some pretty dresses for you," she said, making Elodie giggle."And we met again today at the company where I work," Giselle added."That means you both are meant to be," Elodie said, making them chuckle."That's enough questions, princess. Let's have dessert," Damien said, motioning toward the dining table.Elodie held Giselle's hand as they headed toward the dining table.She is so adorable, Giselle thought.When they reac

Xavier was scowling at her, still pinning her to the wall.She struggled to push him away, but his strength was always too strong to fight against."What the hell is wrong with you? Why do you keep following me, huh? Go and be with your perfect baby girlfriend," she said angrily."What's your deal with my client, huh?" he asked, ignoring her words.She scoffed. Seriously?"What's your deal with him? All of a sudden he wants a change and he chose you?""Yes, he chose me. Why do you have a problem with that?" she replied.He clenched his jaw."What? Are you upset he doesn't want your mighty celebrity model anymore?"He didn't respond but kept scowling at her."News flash, Xavier, the world doesn't, and won't revolve around her even if you are the wealthiest man on earth," she retorted.He hummed. "I see. I get it now. I see why he prefers you."She looked away from him."Damien is one of your clients, isn't he?"She looked at him with furrowed brows. "Excuse me?""He is one of those men

“Yes, that's right. Damien from the mall the other day," Harley said.Giselle nodded slightly as Damien kept staring at her. She moved a strand of her hair behind her ear nervously. He was dressed in a blue suit, looking more handsome than the first time she saw him."You didn't tell us you were THE Damien Walker of Walker Textiles. Hell, you didn't show off as a CEO," Harley said, making Damien chuckle."No, I don't do that. Especially when I was smitten by your sister here," Damien said, looking at Giselle."Oh," Harley responded.Damien smiled at Giselle, and she smiled back."She is not her sister," Xavier spoke up, claiming their attention and reminding them of his presence."What?" Damien asked."She is Harley’s assistant," Xavier said."Well, she is more than that, Damien. That's why I called her my sister," Harley said, smiling at Damien."I see," Damien said. He extended his hand to Giselle. She placed her hand in his."I am happy to see you again, sunshine. You look stunning

“We have to talk," Arabella said, making Giselle roll her eyes."I have nothing to say to you," she replied, walking past her."You think you are winning, aren't you? Because Harley has your back."Giselle stopped in her tracks and turned to her.Arabella raised her brows. “Excuse me?" Giselle asked. "You heard me.""What? Are you jealous?" Giselle asked.Arabella scoffed. "Of you? Stop dreaming, bitch."Giselle chuckled. "You are jealous, Arabella. Harley is Xavier’s only family. You are jealous because you don't have her approval to marry her brother," she said, smiling.Arabella scowled at her."I am correct, aren't I?" Giselle asked. Arabella didn't respond."I know you are young. But you shouldn't be a fool as well." Giselle said. "What the fuck did you just say to me?" Arabella asked. "You heard me. You want to marry Xavier so bad, right? You should be trying to get his sister's approval and not provoke her like you did back at the studio." Giselle said. Arabella scoffed.
