"Miss Kayla come to my office now" he said through the intercom.Ughhh I groan and stand proceeding to his office,putting my shoes back on I knock on his door before entering."Sir you called for me"I said as he seemed to ignore my presence.
After a few minutes of him clicking on his laptop,he closed it and finally acknowledged my existence"Yes I did,I called to ask if you've prepared the lunch reservation for my mum and I at the restaurant I told you to"he said to me.
"Yes sir the reservation is for two and it begins in an hour,I've cleared your meetings and appointments for a three hours time frame giving you enough time to discuss and have lunch with your mum"I said hurriedly not wanting to infuriate him the more as his mood seems far from pleasant.
"That's all you may leave"he dismissed me,nodding I left the office to mine,slouching

Liam's POVAfter dropping Kayla home,I proceeded to drive to my penthouse.Arriving there I took off all my clothes and had a long relaxing bath while thinking about the lunch with my mum.It went well,surprisingly,my mum is someone who doesn't easily associate well with people, don't get me wrong,she is nice and all but the way she just clicked and started conversing with Kayla amazed me because it normally took her a long time before she freely associated with people but apart from that I was thrilled that she has started reacting to her drugs and therapy.Wrapping myself with a towel I went to my room and dressed in a sweatpant and left my torso bare,and headed to my house office where I did my office duties if I fail to make it to the office any day,sitting down I began to sort the files Miss Kayla sent to me.Ring Ring RingPicking up the phone I see Kyle's name flashing on my screeni

Picking up the call without checking the name I put the phome to my ear and say"Hello"to the person on the phone."Hey man"I hear and I instantly recognize the person on the phone."Hey Kyle" I reply"Dude I'm fine,you've got to come over right now I've got something to tell you"he says.Knowing Kyle I'm sure it's something very irrelevant he wants to talk to me about,but anyways I've got nothing to lose plus Kyle's chef makes the best food.Answering him with a yes I proceed to hang up and turn the car to the direction of his house.In about twenty minutes I'm at his house and the heavy rain has subdued to a mild drizzle,coming out of the car I walk up to the door and ring the bell waiting for someone to open the door.After ringing the bell twice I'm finally welcomed in by a pajamas clad

Kayla's POV I sprinted out of there like my life depended on it, turning in directions I wasn't even sure was the right way and once I heard Kyle's voice pleading with me to come back I ran even harder, if that was possible and I was immensely glad once I saw the same door through which I walked into this nightmare.Not wasting any time I opened the door and left still running while getting funny looks from some bystanders but at this point I could care less. I was about to turn towards the direction of my house until my brain clicked and I turned the other way.I did not know if I was still bring followed by Kyle and if I was I know the first place he'd check would be my house and I couldn't risk him finding me so once I saw a cafe nearby I entered and sat down.Once I was seated a waitress came to me asking what I wanted, but I was not with my purse so I could not order anything, so I told her that

Kayla's POVGlaring at the phone I move away from it like it was a bomb that was about to blow. I watched it ring until the line went dead. I sigh in relief but that was soon cut shut when I hear my ring tone once again with that name I dangerously detested flashing on the screen.Realizing that I could not hold on for so long for it might be related to work, who knows, so I grabbed the phone quickly answering it before putting it towards my ear listening to a series of command from a slurring Mr Liam, which was very weird because the way he talked made it seem like he had been drinking but ever since I've known him I have barely seen him hold anything slightly alcoholic so him sounding really tipsy made me a bit worried.Slightly alarmed and maybe frightened at what could keep him in such a state I quickly grabbed my phone and left not forgetting to lock the doors.Boarding a taxi I reach the a

I rushed in to check the bathroom but she wasn't there either. Alarmed I rush towards the doctors office but unfortunately he wasn't there and I was told by a nurse that he was attending to a critical condition and that he could not leave at the moment.Inquiring from the nurse the reason why my mum wasn't in the room where she was supposed to be.

Kayla's POVI can't believe him right now. How dare him tell me to leave. He may not have said it audibly but his actions clearly spoke louder. I can't even phantom why he dislikes me so much, I haven't even done anything outrageously wrong to him so why does my existence bother him so.Huffing I once again flail my hands in the air trying to get a cab at this ungodly hour of the night. Sighing again at my failed attempt at getting a taxi.I tried ordering an uber too but no one could come as a result of the brewing storm. Shivering I watch as yet another car passes me by. I might as well as go back inside but my fear for his wrath makes me put out my arm flailing once more and luckily this time the car pulled over. Not wasting anytime I enter into the car shivering again due to the biting wind.Telling him my address he wastes no time in driving probably hoping to get home before the

Liam's POVToday was undeniably the worst day of my life. I felt like the world was closing in on me and my life was slowly losing meaning. My mum was currently laying in the hospital ward,her life slowly vanishing right before my eyes with the doctors not knowing whether she was going to live or not. I was beyond scared and the doctors telling me to calm down was doing nothing to alleviate my worry but only made me more worrisome. I couldn't help but blame my self for what is happening right now. If only I had stayed with her and had not gone to attend some stupid meeting choosing my business over my mum's health. I should have stayed with her, should have attended church with her and stayed with her to make sure she ate well and took her drugs. It's all my fault that she is in such critical condition. I promised her that I will take good care of her, treat her well and give her all she ever wanted but I failed. I fa

Still looking at him I notice his expressions changing from that of annoyance and frustration to thatof shock and fear.My guess is that Kyle noticed his expressions because he rushed towards him,still looking at them I notice that they converse for a while before the both sprinted out of the room leaving me and the rest of the staffs shocked
