" I heard Colin Rogers applied for a job here" I mention." Oh, yes he did." "I'm sure you're aware that Mr. Rogers has a...history. I'd advise you to be cautious in considering his employment here. It would be quite...unfortunate if your company were to suffer any tarnish to its reputation."Mr. Steven's expression suddenly darkens. He leans forward, lowering his voice. "Are you suggesting Mr. Rogers may bring a stain to our company?""Let's just say that Mr. Rogers's history is...problematic.” I add.Mr. Steven leans back, his eyes narrowed in thought. "I see. Well, Miss Selena, I appreciate your advice. We can't afford to take any risks with our company's reputation. Perhaps it would be wise to reconsider Mr. Rogers's application."I nod, a small smile playing on my lips. "I think that would be for the best. After all, it's always better to be safe than sorry, isn't it, Mr. Steven?"Mr. Steven returns my smile, "Indeed, Miss Selena I'll keep that in mind!”" You can send the cont
" Those are photos from your year and the years before," she answered.I stared at the photo of Jasper struggling to place me on his back, a flower on the ground, and the location was the college stairs I had stumbled and fell years ago. I avert to the next photo to see Jasper carrying me on his back down the stairs, then the next photo of Colin talking to Jasper while I lay unconscious on Jasper's back, then the next photo, Jasper placing me on Colin's back. I looked down at the date on the photos. It was the day I fell in Love with Colin.My hand fell from the photos, " how were these photos taken?" I asked Mrs Watson." Oh!, these photos were taken the day the BFA,I mean the Bachelor in fine arts did their test years ago, They were asked to take photos of people and things they found interesting, so these were snapped and submitted by the students," Mrs Watson answered." So....it wasn't Colin who saved me, it was Jasper!" I thought to myself.It dawns on me that the memory I had,

Levi POVFIVE MONTHS LATER. It's been five months now, Aviva is doing better and so am I. For the past months I've been searching for the right time to make it official but it hasn't been easy and I really want this to be a special day that can't be forgotten but how? I keep asking myself.The past five months had been filled with whirlwind of emotions, as Aviva and I worked together to heal the wounds left by Elara’s treachery. But through it all, our love had grown stronger. And it’s the best time to make it forever. I found myself staring out the window, I smiled, a sudden idea forming in my mind. Perhaps that was it….the perfect setting for what I had in mind. But how? i keep asking myself, i want to make it alright but it's..... I sighed. The idea of doing that was both exhilarating and terrifying.She’s the love of my life, the one person who had seen me at my weakest and still loved me unconditionally. But how to make it special?

Levi POV I stared at Aviva, happy she came to terms with what happened and at the same time careful and hoping i'm making the right decision, i love her so much and the thought of her betraying me was so..... I looked into her eyes, I saw the love and devotion there, but also the regret and remorse for her past mistakes.She had betrayed me, there was no doubt about that. But I couldn’t help but feel that there was still something worth fighting for between us.I took her hand in mine, feeling the warmth and comfort of her touch. It felt so right, so familiar, as if our connection transcended the pain and mistrust of the past.We stood there, in silence, my mind raced with thoughts of the future. What would happen to us, now that we had decided to give things another try? Could we truly move past the pain and hurt of the past, or would the scars of Elara’s betrayal linger on. And yet, as I looked into Aviva’s eyes, I knew that this was a risk worth taking. I had loved her before, a
Aviva POV I stared at the camera in tears, Mom couldn't stand anymore and she almost fell down and was held. " What will you do to Elara Rutherford, I mean Paige?" the reporter asked, and immediately i cleared my tears, " All we want is justice, i want her to rot in hell where she belongs, finding out she ruined my dad's business to ruin our family and had to deceive me into walking for her is absurd and inhuman," I replied, shaking from tears. The cameras flashed and the reporter pushed for more. My heart ached, Mom’s sobs ringing in my ears as I struggled to find the words to convey the depth of my despair.“Elara Rutherford is a monster,” I exclaimed, recalling everything I've gone through since Dad’s passing. “She took everything from me. My father, my home, my future. And for what? For her own twisted satisfaction?” I closed my eyes, the image of Dad’s smiling face when I was younger “I wish I could see him one more time,” I whispered, the pain in my chest almost unbearable. “I
Levi POVThe guard’s eyes widened in surprise, a look of shock and anger on their faces. “You little bastard!” he snarled, lunging forward again.But this time, I was ready. I sidestepped his advance, my fist punching his jaw in a swift, powerful strike with all my strength.The guard stumbled back, his eyes rolling back in his head as he collapsed to the ground. I didn’t waste a moment. I dove towards the gun, grabbing it just as the first guard charged at me.I aimed the gun at the first guard, my finger trembling on the trigger. “Don’t move,” I shouted with a newfound confidence. “Don’t make me shoot.”The guard hesitated, his expression shifting from anger to fear. “What do you want?” he asked, his voice shaky with terror.I smirked, my eyes narrowing.“Sorry to disappoint you, But you’re going to wish I was dead by the time I’m through with you.”The guard took a step backwards, his eyes darting around the room. with my last strength I fought against him. The guard stumbled backwar
Levi POVMom’s face changed and her voice shaked in fury. “You monster,” she spat, her hands trembling at her sides. “You destroyed my life. You destroyed everything I loved.”Elara laughed out loud, “And now I’m going to destroy your son,” she said. “And there’s nothing you can do to stop me.”My heart pounds while my blood boiled as I listened to Elara’s taunts. I wanted nothing more than to burst out of my hiding spot and confront her, to make her pay for what she had done to my family. But I knew I couldn’t. Not yet. Not until we had the proof we needed to bring her down for good.I watched as mom screamed in pain,“You’re wrong,” she yelled. “You may have taken everything else from me,” Mom continued, “But you will never take my son. Never!.”Elara’s smile faded, “You think you can stop me? You’re pathetic. Weak. You’re no match for me.” “You underestimate me, Paige, And you underestimate my son.”“ Don't even go there!”" Killing Colin doesn't mean you are all that, you killed

I could barely understand what they were saying, my mind still reeling from the shock of the crash.“James!” I called out, searching for him amidst the chaos. “James, where are you?”A moment later, one of the paramedics led him over to me, his face covered in blood and bruises.“Boss,” he said, his voice weak but alive. “We made it. We actually made it.”The paramedics loaded us into the ambulance, as they checked our vitals and monitored our injuries. I was in shock, my body shaking uncontrollably.“You’re going to be okay, Mr,” one of the paramedics assured me. “Just hold tight, we’re almost there.”I nodded, too exhausted to do anything else. And as the ambulance sped away, I found myself thinking of Aviva.realizing she did well by deciding to stay in Global reach, it's obvious who did this to me. Elara and I'm certain the authorities informed her about
