Aiden stared at the ceiling of his room, he felt an emptiness in his soul every time he remembered his bitter past. He had to admit that he hated every time he remembered this, let alone talk about it to other people. However, he knew this was the right time for him to express all the feelings he had, including his past pain and trauma. In his arms, Nina lay with her eyes closed, but he knew that this woman was not really asleep. She was waiting for Aiden's promise to share something with her. "Are you asleep yet?" Asked Aiden who finally opened the conversation after minutes of struggling in silence. "No, I'm not sleeping. I was waiting for you." She said. Nina raised her head and body from Aiden's embrace who was still lying naked. Aiden smiled, his eyes pushed Nina to kiss those sweet lips. Nina gave a short kiss which actually made Aiden tempted again and returned the kiss a little longer. "It's fine if you don't want to tell you now. I won't force you, if it ends up hurting
Nina was stunned, she didn't know what to say at this time other than being silent and listening to Aiden like a friend. From Aiden's tone of voice and the look on his face it was clear that he really loved Emily in the past. "Maybe then he really loved you," "I don't know, maybe. I just have a hard time guessing what's really on his mind. He always smiles at me, accompanies me and defends me as if I was everything to him. Even though I'm very happy, there is a part of me that seems to feel that I'm a lowly person. and being able to have a girl like her is a blessing for which I am grateful. I feel that I should be grateful for being with her and I shouldn't complain if she doesn't want me anymore." "That means he feels that he is great and extraordinary for accepting a man like you, is that it?" "Tsk, you immediately thought of that huh?" "I'm just guessing. If my guess is wrong, I'm sorry!" "No, you're right!" "What?" "You're right! He doesn't really love me. He just wants t
"Don't pretend you don't know, Gavin! I bet you already knew that!" "Tch, isn't there anything else I can do? I don't want to get too involved in your personal matters."Victor laughed out loud at Gavin's curt attitude, who was always irritated whenever he tried to discuss love matters. He didn't understand Gavin at all, this man would be 35 years old, but he had never seen Gavin date someone. "Why don't you try dating a woman? I'm sure there are two or three women who are interested in you." "Bother!" Gavin muttered while smoking his cigarette. The look on his face made it clear that he wanted absolutely nothing to do with women. "You don't want to have sex with a woman? I'm sure you've slept with a woman or two before-" "No!" "What?" "Never!" "What? Tsk, damn it. You have to be kidding me? How can there be a man who is still a virgin at the age of 30?" "I've just never been attracted to anyone!" "You've never been attracted to anyone! At least try to date someone!" "Actua
Nina stopped right in front of the same elevator as yesterday. Suddenly she remembered the incident where she was trapped in the elevator with Victor and she had to know one secret Victor didn't want anyone else to know. She was feeling really restless now, she hoped that today would go well. But it seemed that her wish was a little difficult to come true when she saw Bella's face right when the elevator door opened. Bella got up from the elevator in the basement and it made her meet Nina when the first floor elevator door opened. "Ugh...damn, I forgot there is another matter that is no less important." She thought. She smiled bitterly with the corners of his lips twitching. While Bella fiercely threw a cynical glance at her. Nina swallowed hard, not because she was afraid of Bella. But because she hated having to keep dealing with her. "What are you doing? Are you coming in or not?" Bella asked in an annoyed tone. "S-sure!" Nina, who was still busy digesting her conjecture in h
Nina and Bella fell silent at Depney's screams, even though a few seconds ago they had still maintained their opinions about who was right and who was wrong. Depney had no idea why the two of them could act so childish like this. "Oh my God, I have absolutely no idea what's gotten into you two? If Gavin sees you two fighting like this he will definitely be mad. You guys are going to be in trouble!" She said. Trying to advise these two young ladies. Nina gave up, hearing that Gavin would be angry made her lose her desire to continue the fight. But Bella still acted as if she had done nothing wrong. Nina looked at Bella with annoyance, she hoped that for the rest of her internship at this company, this would be the last time she had anything to do with Bella. She still has 70 days to go and she hopes everything will be fine. "What do you see?" Bella immediately threw a cynical question. "The dead!" Nina answered sarcastically and the answer made everyone who heard it a little shock
"It's okay, Depney! I understand. I can't just trust Bella either. She hates me, I can feel it. That's why you don't have to worry!""Thank you! I'm relieved that you believe in me!" "Yes, because you've really helped me all this time."Nina was feeling depressed, she couldn't get over what Depney awkwardly said to her and besides, she glanced at Bella who seemed to really stick to her word. Somehow she felt a little guilty because she had fought with Bella. It must be admitted that Bella made her feel very annoyed. Since the beginning Bella made herself a scapegoat with Gavin at that time, she immediately felt that something was wrong with Bella. As if she should feel needed most. "It seems she really hates me now, what should I do? Agh...why should I care about her...?" Her heart screamed. Nina didn't understand what had happened to her so she had to care about Bella's feelings. However, she suddenly thought back to Bella's words this morning about Depney trying to turn the two o
Nina was stunned, Gavin's words made her even more confused about how to react. She felt that Gavin cared about her, but Gavin's concern made her a little worried. She felt that whe had been hurt enough by the bad rumors about her lately. People call her attention seeker, lover grabber, temptress, slut and gold digger. All these rumors got worse when photos of her with Aiden, Gavin and Victor spread. People don't seem to really care about the origin of the photo or the storyline. They don't care if the meaning behind the photos they see is different from what actually happened. For them, a woman who walks with different men at different times is a very embarrassing woman. "Captain, I'm sorry. I really didn't expect that I would be such a burden to you. However, I think I understand now why Bella hates me so much." "What are you saying?" Ask Gavin. Nina is a little hesitant to tell Gavin about Bella's feelings for him. She had no intention of interfering with Bella's feelings. "N-
Nina stopped walking when she saw Victor's face in front of her. He was a little surprised because Victor was standing there without him noticing. There's no one here because all the staff for the Mr Kevin program have gone home. "S-since when was he standing there? Did he know there were still people in this room?" she thought. Nina was scared because she had obviously just come out of Gavin's office. "S-good afternoon, sir?" Nina was forced to greet him even though she felt very awkward. Victor walked up to her while looking at her with a serious face. Nina shuddered, she really did not understand this man. Why was he always acting weird like this to her? Victor stood in front of him, Nina who was much shorter could only look down at her feet. He hoped that no one saw them standing face to face here because he was really afraid if new gossip about him came back. "Gavin isn't home yet?" Ask Victor. Even though he looked serious, Victor's tone sounded calmer. "C-Captain is still
