Maggie POV
I need to see Tatiana for my come-up plans again. I can't give up like this. I will do everything to make Asher love me back again.I won't let anyone take him from me. I came back here and leave my job for him and I guess he didn't know about it. He wasn't aware that I am here to continue our wedding. We don't have a proper break up so I want to continue our wedding.
I went home yesterday and I told my brother Tim not to tell mom that I and Asher weren't back together yet. I don't want her to get worried about my situation since she's the one who persuaded me to go home. She's always telling me that I need to see him because, after three years of being away from him, he didn't dare to find a new girlfriend and mom thinks that he's still waiting for me but why was everything doesn't goes in what I want to be?
I stretch my arms and legs in my soft mattress before I get up from my bed. I smelled the nice aroma of the foods my mo
Asher lick his lips after Max came out from his office with a smirk on his face."So cute." He whispered while thinking about their kiss earlier.He was about to go out when someone came. His eyes widened suddenly to realize who came unexpectedly."Oh, looks like you saw a ghost? Am I not allowed to visit my son?", Mrs. Sophia Aragon came inside his office and Asher just rolled his eyes while following his mom.Mrs. Sophia went for a vacation in Alaska with her new husband and he was pissed about it. His life will go to be miserable again because his mom was here and she always bragging to him about Maggie, his ex-fiance.The socialite old lady sat beside his desk as she owned it." Mom, when did you get back? Why do you just wait in the house? This place is only for men and me ---", he stops when his mom looks mad.She slammed her palm on the table and Asher was surprised." Am I
Asher cupped his head after his mom left his office. His head started to throb about the visit of his mom. His life will become miserable again because the tiger came back. "It's okay, Asher. You can get away with it." He murmured and decided to go out. On his way out, he saw Russ talking to Max. He didn't continue going out since he plans to go to her office to say sorry for what he did a while ago. He just waited until one hour. *** Max POV "What? I--do--not know what you're talking about. What do you mean?", I asked him with my trembling lips. I think this is the worst moment of her life. If Russ will find out who she was, her chance of getting to the top will be nothing and their secrets with her boss Asher. Russ sneered. " Max, I know it's you. Why do you keep lying? Please, I know also that you celebrated with our boss on your daughter's birthday!", he to
Max tried her best not to confess and she succeeded. "Russ, please keep it a secret to everyone, please. I need this job for my daughter's future. I hope you will understand me." She begs for him once again. Russ took a deep sigh. He can't just stand here and just wait to see Max getting hurt. He decided to tell her about Maggie. "Max, don't worry about me. What I am worried about is your feelings. You don't know anything about Asher. He's just playing your heart." He told her with his sincere face. He's not even blinking so he's not joking here at all.Max was disturbed by what he told to her. She's curious about what he was about to say. " Listen to me carefully. Asher's heart belongs to Maggie only. She's her ex-fiance and she just get back from New York." He told her and Max didn't know about it. She doesn't know much about their boss. All she knows was he's cold, arrogant,
Asher made a quick shower and change his suits to a comfy pair of turquoise shorts and a plain white t-shirt where his biceps almost fill the edge of it. He's a fit guy and anyone fell for his muscular chest and broadened abs.He rubs his hair to make it messy and it adds a cooler look to him. He decided to go downstairs to meet Maggie and his mom for dinner even he's not glad to do it. He just doesn't want to hurt his mom since she's very sensitive in a moment like this."Oh, son. I'm glad you accept my request. It's time for dinner." She said when she saw him on the stairs coming towards them.He just took a sigh as his eyes shifted at his ex-fiance, Maggie."Ahem, it's nice to see you again." She mumbled when he's almost near them.He had no choice but to smile at her."Well, same to you." He simply said and Mrs. Aragon looks so happy that her son and soon-to-be daughter-in-law are getting along well.
Max POVI was tongue-tied when my boss appeared in front of my door.I felt like my legs turned to jelly and my forehead began to sweat as he walked inside."Sir, what are--you doing--here? It's late." My lips quivered as I smelled the scents of whiskey on his white t-shirt.He's too tall for me and when he came closer, I can't be seen anymore."I --just--miss you." His voice became a hush to my ears.And then to my surprise, he suddenly fell on me."Sir! Wait!", I exclaimed when we both stumbled on the floor.He's too heavy to carry and he's on top of me." hmmm, you're so beautiful, Max. You know how much I like you?" his lips were almost touching mine.I turned around but he quickly cupped my cheeks, making me face him."You can't get away from my kids anymore! Now, my turn to make you mine." His eyes sharpened to me and I felt nervous about
Maggie came home with her frowned face. She can't believe that her ex-fiance just kick her out of his house even after she confessed everything that happened in the past."That asshole. He's not worth it for me. Mom, maybe I can just forget about his money and just give up." She told her mom after she saw her in the wine bar area.Her mom was drinking alone there. She slowly gulped one sip of red wine in her mouth and put down the empty glass on the bar counter. He took a deep sigh as her eyes shifts towards her."Why give up now? Your ex-fiance is now a multi-billionaire so why the rush?", she raised her brown shade eyebrows at her.Maggie came closer and sat beside her. She took one empty wine glass and ask for a toss." Give me that. I want to be calm." She said and drink the whole glass of wine into her mouth.Her mom laughs at her behavior.She suddenly made applause for cheering her daught
Ace CompanyThe Aces employees make a line to welcome their boss Asher Aragon. Today is the day of Italy's summer collection Fashion Show and Max, the head designer of the Ace Company was the one who made the ten designs who is now walking behind their CEO. Russ was there too as her assistant designer.Everyone prepared to their way out going to Italy."Good luck, sir!", they said and escorted them to the exit door.Max didn't want to make eye contact with their boss so she decided to wear eyeglasses. Of course, she's still pulling her man's haircut, deep voice, and boyish walking and the way she acts on many people.Asher on the other hand did the same. It's like an awkward situation where they were together but they are both too shy to talk to one another. Russ notices them so when they're inside the Limousine going to the airport." Is there any problem? Seems like you two are fighting?", he cleared his thro
Max POV We finally reach the hotel they prepared for us and each of us has our room. I walked inside and took a deep breath. Italy is such a nice place for tours and family vacations. I wish I can bring my daughter here with me. We can go shopping and eat at the fancy restaurant here but what can I do, she's not okay to come with me since my secrets is still a secret to others except sir Asher and Russ. I jump on the mattress and landed my back on it. "It's nice to feel pampered!", I mumbled as my eyes slowly went drowsy and heavy. I can sleep in a short while since the show is tomorrow. I didn't realize that I fell asleep. *** Asher opened his room and he didn't fancy this kind of place because he loves staying in his room. This place was used by many people and even they were clean and disinfect, many still lay on this bed to sleep. He walked near the window and slide
