"Stephen’s POV"
"Let's cut the chase. What do you want this time?" Marie boldly questioned. She sat down, folded her legs, and stared at me. I noticed her lips curling up. "If you're going to tell me that you're still going to attack Axel, I'm warning you, I'll be the first one to fight you," she growled.
I giggle at her bravery "As far as I recall, you were trembling the previous time we met, but today you're full of confidence. Where did you get the guts to confront me? Huh?" I
Every step she took made her nervous and distressed, she slowly walk and wanted to stop the time. Her eyes were all on the ground, ignoring all the judgmental eyes of the people around her.She heard the annoying laughter of them all. She was aware that they were all discussing her. Her knees trembled as she approached her boss's office. Her heart is pounding!She cautiously lifts her hand to knock, but even before she could, the door opens, revealing the guy she is afraid to confront.
"AC’s POV"Today is my second week working for H Group of Companies Inc., I consider myself fortunate to have been accepted into such a respected organization. Luckily, my cousin, Axel, recommended me even though my grades aren't as good as others, and here I am honing my skills as an encoder.The employees have been treating me nicely since day one of working here, I heard that my cousin is the President and CEO of this firm, but I haven’t confirmed it to him yet. I didn’t know that he was wealthy, as I expected that he could afford to build his empire!I had seldom heard from my parents and relatives before that he was a talented and gifted man, but I didn’t know that he wasn't as simple as I thought, I was overwhelmed when I found out that he was a multi-millionaire!I chose to accept his proposition to grow closer to him and become his full-time employee without difficulty
"Hello! Axel?" Aicko dials a long-distance phone call to his cousin."Hello. What makes you want to call me? Do you have a problem?" Axel inquired from the other end of the telephone. He recognized the phone call as coming from his cousin."I phoned to tell you about my best friend, but you have to promise me you won't be surprised, okay?" She attempts to persuade him."Is there something wrong with her? How is she?" He worriedly asked. The line went silent for some time. He was waiting for his cousin to tell him. She was hesitant to tell him the news, but she had to say it."Axel, I don’t want to say it to you, but I promised to inform you anything about her—" "Get to the point!" He impatiently instructed."She’s in the hospital," she promptly responded."What??... How did that happen?!" Axel can’t stop himself from over
Aicko was standing in front of the full-body mirror, wearing a rose pink half-sleeve dress that hugged the curves of her body while combing her hair, she is winking at herself in the mirror. She was ready to leave and head to work, but she heard her phone beep.She extended her hand to reach her phone in the drawer beside the mirror and checked the message. She was grinning like an idiot when she saw the name of the person who had inbox her. It was Mr. Padilla, the manager of HGCI!Aicko's imagination had run wild, believing that the message was an invitation to a five-star restaurant breakfast, a spectacular Ferris wheel date, or a candle-lit supper!She had admired their manager's abilities since the first time she worked for the firm. He was harsh with her, but she didn't take it personally whenever he criticized her or humiliated her in front of so many employees.Mr. Padilla would be classified
It’s been three days since Schina lost her internship training. She didn’t want to go anywhere. All she wanted to do was stay at home and rested her tired body.She was so depressed that she was thinking of giving up. She didn’t want to find a clue that would save her from this cruel world. She knew from the very start that something was wrong, but she was caught up in the thoughts that she might fail again!She was sitting on the living room couch, looking out the window, when she heard her best friend's voice calling her."Why is she here again?" She lazily rose from her seat and made her way to the main door, clicking the knob to open it."Good morning, Schina!" She gushed and hugged her tightly."Are you planning to kill me?" She protested while coughing, Aicko unclasped her hand from her neck and grinned at her."I’m sorry," she s
"Are you sure you're going to hack J.S. Airlines' CCTV footage?!?" Hearing her scheme, Aicko was embarrassed. She couldn't settle herself down just now by imagining what would happen to her buddy if she did such a thing. "Yes! I am certain that I will track down the perpetrator "She said. Aicko understands that once she makes a decision, no one can stop her from achieving her objective, but she still needs to try. "Are you saying that after you locate the person responsible, you'll submit it to your employer as proof of your innocence?" Her pal questioned her in a naïve manner. "Yeah," she said quickly. Aicko sprang to her feet, grabbing the computer from her grasp and shutting it off, "are you still thinking?! I understand your logic but you might get in jail for doing this even if you prove your innocence! I know, you have no time, but you can do the simplest and rightest thing," she noted.
"Gosh! Is he madly in love with me? Is it true that he likes me? If he doesn't, he won't speak those things, but that isn't going to happen!" Her mind informs her. She was still shocked as she stared at him, her gaze sweeping down his face toward his mouth. She bit her bottom lip and cleared her throat, imagining his gorgeous lips as the kiss that had just transpired flashing through her mind."What are you trying to say? Can you enlighten me? I might have misheard your statement just now," she requested, thinking that she was in a delusion when he stated that ‘he couldn’t endure the feeling of missing her.’Axel was ready to confess his love to her. He had just confirmed it when he was away, and he kept missing her. She was all in his head thinking about what she was doing and how she since hadn’t contacted him. He took a deep breath and with all courage opened his mouth and say, "I was trying to say that… I n
"What??!!!!" She yelled loudly."I'm –" the ring of his phone interrupted him. Axel pulled his phone from his coat pocket, answered it, and placed it on his ear."Hello, Mr. Hodreal. I have already completed my task, and I assure you that I verified it before sending it," he heard his employee say on the other end of the line."Okay. My secretary will send you the payment," he said and hung up the call, and raise his gaze to her.Axel grabbed her hand, pulling her out of the house, "where are we going??!" She protested."I will tell you later. For now, just cooperate with me," he assures her, and opens the car’s door, inviting her to come in."Stephen’s POV""Does anyone else live here?!?" I yelled, but my voice reverberated across the area, so I kept going and looking for the exit, but I found up back in the same
