"Oh, for the love of God, shut up and do something useful with yourself," Gina yelled at the workers at her boutique. they all immediately scurried away when they saw the terrible mood that their boss was in... She was mostly like this but only lashed out at them when her mood was really terrible... "I can't believe this is happening. he cancelled the date again!" She groaned in anger and almost threw her phone at the wall, but was able to control herself before she did. She had tried too hard to get this date arranged by his mother and now his 'Secretary!' was sending her a message that it was cancelled. "Who do you think you are?" She muttered under her breath and grabbed her bag angrily... Gina walked out of her boutique angrily and got into her car. She needed an explanation from Michelle Graham... After all the expensive clothes and shoes she had spent so Michelle could put out good words about her to her son, was this disrespect what she was going to get in return... She yel
Claudia wiped her tears away with the handkerchief that Mrs flicher had offered her... "Thank you," She said and shook her head. The two women with Joyce Flicher exchanged looks with her, and one of them nodded. "We can take you to her place if you want. she doesn't live far from here." Doris, the second of the trio, said, hoping to get more information about what had happened a few hours ago from Claudia. They had waited for the small crowd to dissipate before they finally approached her when she wouldn't leave, and Claudia was more than ready to pull out her victim card here. "No, i shouldn't go there. she must be mad at me because I lost my temper earlier. I didn't mean to hit her. She was just so rude, and it made me so sad. She used to be such a sweet girl." Claudia started and pretended to cry again... she buried her face in her palm, and Joyce patted her shoulders. "I always had a bad feeling about her," She muttered and scoffed. she always knew juliet was a problem, and Cla
Gina stood in front of the elevator impatiently. if Alex was going to avoid her calls and messages, then maybe if she showed up at his office, he wouldn't be able to avoid her anymore. She took out the office card that Michelle had given her and walked into the elevator with a smile on her face. She wasn't going to lose such a catch when her cousin was planning on marrying Jamie Miller, one of the most eligible bachelor in the city and the second son of the Miller family... He had a trust fund that would never run dry... She couldn't stand all of Joan's bragging and wanted to aim higher. She didn't want a second son she wanted the heir of the family, and Alex was the one who had caught her eyes. Thankfully, Caroline, one of her best customers, just happened to be his aunt and brought Michelle his mother to her boutique. She had easily woed the woman, and now her plans were on tracks, but the main person who she needed for the plans to finally work out was trying to prove stubborn and a
Alex Graham walked to his office... the once sweet smile that had been on his face had completely disappeared and was now replaced by a deep frown. He was back to his life. "Sir!" Patrick stood up when he saw Alex approaching finally. Daniel had been waiting for over an hour, and Alex didn't pick up when he called again multiple times. He needed to fill Alex on Gina Dawson, his 'Maybe' Future wife... "Is he still waiting?" Alex said, and Patrick nodded. he had thought Daniel would leave after a while, but he kept waiting diligent in Alex office and even asked for some refreshments... "Wasn't he on an indefinite business trip? Why is he back without any word." Alex muttered under his breath as she pushed open the door to his office. Daniel was laughing at a video he was watching on his phone when his nephew walked into his office... "You are finally here... I thought you wouldn't show up, " Daniel said, and Alex smiled slightly at the older man... "I didn't know you returned," Ale
Alex stopped his car in front of Juliet's house and came out... He was back here again. He kept returning back here. the only place he could go to forget all his problems... He Walked slowly to her front door and rang the door bell... his heart heavy... Juliet opened her door to find Alex standing outside... It was late and past dinner time and he looked... to not be in a very good mood. He had a deep frown in his face as he stared At her and his stomach grumbled... "Is there a chance I could have dinner here" He asked in a low voice and managed to smile at her... Did he have a bad day at work, opposite of her day she wondered... She thought about it for a few seconds before letting him into her house... Alex walked into her house and sighed deeply... His heart felt less heavy now that he had seen her... Juliet closed her door and wondered what she could offer him to eat. she wasn't much of a cook, but knew how to feed her self... she has some left over pasta in a fridge and wond
Juliet walked Alex to his car when it was finally time for him to leave... He looked tired and hesitant to leave but he knew he couldn't stay and it was getting late..."I'm sure your father wouldn't like to know you are finding it hard..." She said as he was about to enter his car..."I doubt it" Alex answered... "He was more of a workaholic than I was and always put his job first before anything else. that was the live he lived" "isn't that more of a reason, why he wouldn't want you to live like him" Juliet said and it took Alex a few seconds to digest her words..."Thank you for the dinner" Alex said and smiled at her... Juliet stood there watching as his car drove off... she hoped he was going to be okay... _______________ _________________ Juliet walked into her the publishing office where she worked and headed straight for Sonia's her boss' office. she was going to suggest they try to seek investment for other bigger companies to help them with their debts, but she wasn't su
Gina stopped her car at a gas station and picked up her scarf and sunglasses. She made sure no one was coming her away before she came out of her car and walked hurriedly across to where another car was parked... She couldn't risk anyone seeing her in such a place... "Did you find out" She said to the man in the car and he nodded. the man handed her an envelope and Gina Snatched it from his hand and impatient opened... There were pictures and she started ro flip through the pictures. "This is the girl he had been hanging out with!" Gina said and took off her sunglasses... She couldn't deny the lady was pretty, but she wasn't like her in any way... she looked so normal... Her clothes and everything else... Was this the person Alex was avoiding her for... She closed her eyes and let out a deep breath... "How long have they been seeing each other?" She asked her private investigator as she went through all the pictures... There was a picture of them at the park together, and anot
"That stupid boy," Michelle muttered under her breath when her driver drove she and Gina, to where juliet worked... She was glad she had such a daughter in law with quick thinking. Gina reminded her of herself in a way... She was ambitious and she liked it... She just wished she wasn't so forward sometimes... it would have been better if she hadn't gone and found things out herself. She would have handled the matter sooner or later... "This is the place ma'am," Her drive said when they stopped in front of a building with a sign reading "DB Publishing company."""" "We are not here to confront her. just to speak with her, " Michelle said, and Gina nodded. They both came out of the car and walked into the building that didn't even have an elevator. They had to go up the stairs... Gina barely placed her hand on the stair railing as she walked behind Michelle... How could people work in such a place... Her boutique that she considered small was far bigger than the place... They arrive
