View MoreEdwin's POVBack in the day….Stepping on the throttle, we were already out of the mansion in no time and I was having a hard time digesting all that I heard. Silverstein made a move while my family stupidly accepted. They don't know what they're in for or maybe they know and are just blindly going for what they want rather than what they need.“So..” Aunt Sarah started, swallowing hard as she spoke. “There's another woman..?” she asked.“Hmm!” I nodded.There's nothing to hide anymore as they all are making a move already. Miranda, she could be in danger at any time and the only person to help me out with her safety now is my aunt. She's the last person I would want to keep Miranda away from.“Do they know about it yet..?” She asked again, finding it hard to believe. “Maxwell knows as well as Alex. Aside from them both, no one else from the family..” I explained, pressing further.“The Silverstein.. they must know about her to have come prepared with a marriage proposal. Holy!!” I
Miranda's POVI felt weak, drowned in my own sweat as I ran towards the hospital reception. The nurse there just kept looking at me and not understanding what I was saying at all because I was a mess. There was only one name on my lips, a single name that had me almost disabled from fear.“C.. Christabel..? Christabel!?” I kept saying, repeating the name and bawling my eyes out.“Who is it, Ms..?” The nurse asked but I can't explain, just how can I..? A very healthy person just typed enthusiastically to me, very much happy about modeling for an endorsement, now where's that healthy person? In the hospital..?“C.. Christabel..” I repeated, breathing harder in minutes that I could collapse any moment soon. My limbs feel weak, and my head..? Both mentally, physically and emotionally, I am drained.I swiped to unlock my phone seeing as repeating just a name wouldn't help. I went to my gallery where I swiped through different folders and pictures and finally, I got one that I was looking f
Edwin's POVWe both stepped out and frustratedly, aunt cursed In the air.“Those god-damned family of yours, scumbags..” She hissed irritatingly.I sighed too, exasperatedly as I turned back to the door. Was this how it has always been? Not to acknowledge one as a family yet.. “How are you..? Are you okay?” Aunt Sarah called from behind.“I am, aunt.” I answered curtly, turning towards her direction and smiling which she did too.“I know, I know..” She said, “You did well,”“Right!?” I uttered, releasing a frustrated sigh. “You're not really going to do what that asshole said right? You're not going to be paired with the Silverstein just for their joy right..? You.. you're not going to force them to take you in right..?” I heard my aunt query rather impatient that it made me frown for a bit.I held on her shoulder, making her face me as she squeezed gently on them to make her at ease.“You saw it too..” I stated simply. “They failed aunt, they are even more worthless now that I thin
Edwin's POV“Have the new team work on the project with the SLL group; we can't have anything go wrong.” I ordered as I stepped into the company.“Yes boss..” Came the answer while we moved further in till my phone vibrated with a message popping on the screen. For a while, I stood still like a brick wall, with my phone held tight in my hand and a slight grin plastering my face.Who would have thought the whole of the Silverstein family and mine would lay low without causing trouble..? Of course, not me because I expected much. They weren't doing anything not because they can't, time is all it takes.From where I stood, I turned back to the direction of the underground pack. A smile still lingered on yet it didn't do much to my anger. I felt my hands clenched as I pressed them on the steering wheel but my breathing was controlled. These people, they're never tired of amazing me, bringing me to a knowledge of how far they can go and a terrifying understanding. In no time, I was in the
Miranda's POVMy eyes stung as I turned to leave, it was my fault that I had a wrong determination and false hope but then, I mustn't have taken up to the fifth step when I was held in a bridal style.“Wh..” interrupted with a peck that asked me not to say another word till I felt I was sitting on a soft comfy bed.I was dumbfounded, I couldn't talk but that didn't mean I wasn't still in pain. I looked at the man that squirted before me and felt worse. His eyes bored into mine. I had to look away but it only gave him room to my neck. I felt him nimble on it and became stiff, his mouth was hit against my skin and his wet tongue continuously drew circles.“What are you doing, Miranda..?” I asked myself and came back to my senses. Slightly pushing him to the back and getting up to move but again, he's fast.This time, his lips slammed hard in mine and I felt him intrude my mouth with his tongue. With how rough it was, it was damn passionate. I didn't know when I relaxed and responded to
Miranda's POVI arrived at work early so I could meet with Edwin. I know he comes early too and would just leave once it's almost time for a normal resume and then be back as the boss he is to be acknowledged and so, I wished to see him.The day before, I kept replaying the recorder, thinking about what there is to do and not wanting to make a mistake. The same mistake I did with Maxwell, thinking I can handle it all. There was this tiny part of me that wished I never made that mistake and it was all because I was blinded and couldn't have possibly met up with Edwin. I had my own business to settle and after the whole scene and after I realized Edwin still cares even while he's yet to know I used to be his friend in school, there was this particular part of me that wants to become closer and accept the fact that I like him. I came to the term that I settled my business already. It never was Edwin's fault that he left me. He was an outcast and now, those family members of his all want
Edwin's POVI stepped into the office the next day, and as usual, they all greeted me but I didn't care to answer. They bowed till I'm out of sight, yet, there's this particular one I can't get to submit to me.I found out Miranda was that same girl I used to be closer to, since I found she worked for Maxwell and quit because she suddenly began to care… I became obsessed. I walked past several of my employees till I got to Miranda's desk, she's there, also greeting and bowing like the rest.One moment, I stopped in my tracks and it felt like my whole body became hot and stiff. Shit.. I remembered all that transpired between us, the conversation we had before. I couldn't help it. The energy that was sipping through was that of anger. I wanted to know, to understand and become closer but I guess she likes both of my brother's and would work with them to get to me.How greedy! Being involved with three brothers that were constantly backstabbing themselves. She's going to get the project
Miranda's POV“Mr Alex..?” I called, shocked to the bone that he was there or might have been there but he seemed calm.“Hi, representative. '' He greeted me, smiling awkwardly at me.“What are you.. I mean” I stuttered, finding it hard to ask a question that bugged my entire being.“You mean?” he scrutinize his eyes at me for a while, coming closer than expected till he let out a hearty chuckle that had my biting on my lips in embarrassment.“I came to see my brother that's always locked indoors, instead I came face to face with his personal assistant.. that works just fine for me. It means he isn't just indoors doing nothing..” He ranted.“Oh, that..” I said back, feeling how hot my cheek is, I can tell they're a tomato red already. He chuckled again and this time, tucked my hair to my ears to have a better view at my already colored face, shit..!“Alright, let's go shall we?” he asked and didn't wait for an answer when he pulled me by my hand.All eyes turned in our direction, th
Miranda's POVIt becomes easier when there's no interest in negative thoughts. The SLL group finally signed the contract and became a team with us. Everything was going just as expected but then, the sound of a knock on my desk drew me back to life and almost immediately, I frowned.“Did I disturb our newly found representative..?” I could tell of the sarcasm beneath the voice. I looked up only to find the company's manager, staring back at me.“I am so sorry…” I pleaded, immediately getting on my feet.He looked more like a person that wouldn't want a no for an answer. Almost carrying Edwin's aura but then, there's something spectacular about Edwin's that this young man here doesn't have. Shit..! Why do I think of him?“No need to be. I just wanted to see the new representative of the company that has been able to pull my brother's attention. It turned out to be you,” He continued. I couldn't help but scrutinize my eyes. He's Edwin's brother..? It was confusing but somehow, it wasn'
MIRANDA'S POVMaxwell never listens, I said to myself as I watched him do what he hated the most.Watch Edwin being pronounced the first as always. He sat down on the couch totally ignoring my presence as he watched the news silently while I sat at the other end of the chair.“And here is the most Influential and top one ranking businessman, Edwin Dawn, the CEO of The Dante company, which is popularly known worldwide as the world's best and most influential company,” The newscaster announced, and I felt my mood in the room suddenly change.Maxwell was surely boiling and looked so much like he wanted to punch something, hopefully not me.“Fuck!.” He finally exclaimed as he turned off the television, then angrily threw the remote, which later landed on Me, who was sitting not too far from him.He did well this time, unlike the last time, when he had ruined the office and destroyed the television in a fit of rage.I sighed and stared at his pathetic self, the look I knew he hated so dam...
