Evelyn's POV

I woke up with a headache and I groaned bcos of the pain. Maybe I drank too much last night. I looked at my surroundings.

'What place is it?' I asked myself in the unfamiliar surroundings.

I looked down at myself and my eyes widened in horror. I'm naked and I don't know whom I slept with. I don't remember what happened last night. Me and sana went to a club and we drank a lot.

I was literally pulling my hair in frustration to remember everything.

The whole scenario of last night played out in front of my eyes. Meeting that stranger in the club who saved me from the creep guy. Then he took me to his home and I kissed him. Oh my! Holy moly! I initiated intimacy with him and we had sex.

Evelyn what the hell have you done? You slept with a stranger. Oh wait, he was familiar. I must have met him before.

I tried hard to think about him. And I remembered his facial features and realised he is the same guy from the coffee shop whom I insulted that day.

'Wow Evelyn Moore, you are so awesome right. You are such a fool that you slept with the guy whom you insulted. My first impression of him was so bitchy and in the second meeting I took him to bed. You are maintaining such a nice reputation.' I said sarcastically and cursed myself.

I remember he was calling me Bella, he was moaning the name of some other girl named Bella. Did he mistake me for someone else last night? Is Bella his girlfriend? If she is his girlfriend it means he cheated on her and I become a third person between the couple. I felt like shit at the thought of taking someone else's man.

I was calling him Sebastien last night but I don't remember him telling his name. How did I know his name then? Maybe he told me but I don't remember that. I was not sober last night.

I saw a note at the nightstand and read it- " Whatever happened last night, let's just forget it. We were not sober last night. You don't have to feel guilty about it. Just hope we never cross paths with each other ever again."

He wants me to forget it. What else was I even expecting? Obviously, he has Bella in his life.Why would he leave her for me, after all it's just a one night stand for him and we were not even sober. I don't know why I'm feeling bad about his note. I shouldn't feel hurt.

I looked at the clock and it was 8 in the morning. Dammm, today is my first day at work. I can't be late on my first day at work. I wore my clothes and booked a cab.

I reached home and went straight to the bathroom, took a quick shower and brushed my teeth. Then I got ready in my formals and did a little touch up. Rushed to the office.

It's 9:25 am already and I'm supposed to report at 9:30 am. I'm already in the lift and I have to go to the 10th floor.

"Hey, I'm the new secretary. Can you tell me the directions to CEO office." I asked a girl in the corridor.

As per the directions given by him, I reached the CEO office and knocked on the door.

"Come in." I heard the voice from inside the office.

I pushed the door and entered the office. It was lavishly decorated. Boss was sitting on his chair facing the opposite wall.

I read the name on the nameplate on his desk- Sebastien Robinson

Why does he have the same name as that stranger? I'm sick of this name. But I guess I need to get used to it bcos it's my boss's name.

"Good morning sir. I'm Evelyn Moore, I'll be your new secretary from now on." I greeted him.

"Good morning, Miss Moore. You are 2 minutes late. I don't like late comers. I'll let it slide as it's your first day but make sure to be on time from the next time. "He said.

"I'm sorry sir. I'll be on time from tomorrow on." I apologised.

He turned his chair and faced me and my jaw hung down and so did his.

"You?" We both said in unison.

"What are you doing here?" I asked him.

"I should be the one asking you that. This is my company. You are the outsider here." He said rudely.

"I was appointed as the secretary but I didn't expect you to be my boss." I said .

"Oh god! You are such a headache. Why are you everywhere? Are you stalking me or something?" I asked furiously while facepalming.

"Don't think so highly of yourself. Why would I follow you? I think you are the one stalking me." I said sarcastically.

" This is my place. You are the stalker here, not me." He pointed finger at me. We started arguing.

" Let's just stop fighting now. I don't have energy to argue. " I said annoyed.

"Yeah, you used all your energy in bed last night." I said sarcastically and smirked.

"Don't mention that thing. My brain is already fucked up because of that. I know you have a girlfriend. Let's forget about last night. It was just a mistake. " I said.

"Yeah it was a mistake. And who saud I've a girlfriend. I don't have any." He said.

I wanted to ask him about Bella. But I don't want to be nosy. Maybe it's a one sided love. Let's not embarrass him.

" Also, I'm sorry about that day in the cafe. I was at fault. I'm so sorry. " I apologised to him.

"I don't accept your apology and I don't want to work with you. Get out of my office now." I hissed at me.

"But why? You can't fire me like that?" I tried to save my job.

"I can do whatever I want. This is my office, Miss Moore. And as per your words that day, I'm a jerk right. So a jerk can do anything. " He said coldly .

"Now get out" He shouted.

I've noticed that he skipped his lunch most of the time, so a home cooked meal would be the best option. I packed up everything in the tifin box and got my cab to work. "Good morning, sir," I said with a bright smile, and he just nodded without even glancing at me. He seems to be in a bad mood.'Be careful Eve, Don't end up making it worse rather than making up with him,' I thought to myself. "Is everything okay, sir? You seem to be in a bad mood," I asked him curiously. "Just get to the work, Miss Moore . You are not paid for worrying about my mood," he said coldly. Miss Moore? Seriously? Are we back at the formalities ?"What's the schedule for the day?" he asked. "Today you have a meeting regarding collaboration with a Chinese fashion brand.

I heard some weird noises from my neighborhood and went to the window to look out, but there was nothing. I got back to my bed and thought about him. Should I call him and ask him about his surprise? What if he is already sleeping?My phone beeped with a notification, and I thought it's his message, so I checked it quickly. 'Evelyn, I'm in serious trouble. Please save me. I'm at the playground near your apartment. Please come and meet me.' Sana texted me, and without wasting any time, I changed my clothes and headed out towards the playground. When I reached the playground, there wasn't anyone. "Sana, are you there? It's me, Evelyn." I called out but got no response. Just then, I felt someone's presence behind me, and I turned around. I expected it to be Sana, but it was a guy wearing a mask."Who are you?" I asked with a scared voice."Your d

    At Isabella’s villa, the whole family gathered to spend some time with the little devil. Bella and Sebastian had taken on the roles of doting grandparents, their hearts swelling with pride and joy. Bella cooed softly at Gabriel , who was seated in his bright blue playpen filled with colorful toys. “Oh, look at him! Just look at those cheeks!” Bella exclaimed, her voice high with excitement. She leaned down, her hands resting on the edge of the playpen. “You are going to be spoiled rotten, my little prince!” Sebastian chuckled beside her, a warm smile on his face. “And it’s entirely our fault. Can you believe he’s already six months old? It feels like just yesterday when he was born.” “Time really flies,” Bella agreed, her eyes sparkling with nostalgia. “And he’s already got us wrapped around his little finger. Look at the way he’s holding that toy. He’s going to be quite the little charmer.” As if on cue, Gabriel glanced up at his grandmother, his bright blue eyes gleaming. He gr

The soft coos and gurgles of their baby echoed through the room, filling it with a joy that only a child could bring. “Good morning, little buddy,” David said with a wide grin, peering down into the crib where Gabriel lay, his chubby cheeks flushed, and his big blue eyes sparkling with mischief .David reached down, gently lifting Gabriel into his arms, careful not to disturb his little onesie covered devil. Isabella entered the nursery, her hair still tousled from sleep, but her smile brightened the room. “Is it a good morning?” she asked, walking over to them, her arms outstretched. “Every morning is good with this little guy,” David replied, bouncing Gabriel slightly in his arms. The baby laughed, his tiny giggles was like music. Isabella leaned in, pressing a kiss to Gabriel's forehead. “Oh, look at those cheeks! He is so cute.” She gen

    Isabella stood on the terrace of their villa, gazing out at the ocean. The rhythmic sound of the waves crashing against the shore had always calmed her, but tonight, she felt a twinge of anticipation. David had been secretive all day, dropping hints about a surprise, yet offering no real clues. He had asked her to dress up, telling her only to meet him outside at sunset. The air was warm, with just the slightest breeze tousling her hair. She smoothed down the flowing red dress she had chosen, wondering what David had in store. As she stepped down from the terrace toward the garden, soft music began to play in the distance, the melody familiar and comforting. Following the sound, Isabella rounded the corner of the garden, and what she saw took her breath away. There, in the center of the garden, was a beautifully set table, draped in white linen with glowing candles and a bouquet of her favorite flowers—white lilies and lavender. Tiny twinkling fairy lights hung from the trees above

    The estate’s sprawling gardens had been transformed into an elegant wedding venue. Rows of white chairs stretched out on either side of a long aisle, which was adorned with fresh roses, delicate ribbons, and greenery that swayed gently in the breeze.At the end of the aisle stood two grand arches, intertwined with flowers. One arch was for Alonzo and Abigail, and the other for Shelley and Miles. The arrangement was symbolic of the bond between the two couples, inseparable friends, now sharing this beautiful day together.David stood at the front, next to Alonzo and Miles. He cast a glance at his best friend, Alonzo, who was busy adjusting his tie for what seemed like the tenth time in the last five minutes. David chuckled under his breath."Relax," David said with a smile, giving Alonzo a pat on the shoulder. "You’re going to be fine."Alonzo let out a small, nervous laugh, running a hand through his hair. "I know, I know. It’s just… It’s all hitting me now. I’m about to marry Abigai

    The air was filled with an air of excitement, anticipation, and laughter as the girls gathered around the rows of gowns. Isabella, Rachel, Shelley, and Abigail were here on a mission—find the perfect wedding dresses for Abigail and Shelley.Isabella glanced around at the elegant displays of satin, lace, and tulle. "Okay, we have a lot of work to do," she announced with a grin. "But I think we’re more than up to the challenge."Rachel chuckled, running her fingers over the delicate fabrics. “Between all of us, I think we’ll find the perfect dresses in no time.”Shelley, who had been scanning the racks with wide eyes, finally looked up and nodded enthusiastically. “I’m so excited! I’ve been dreaming about this moment since I was a little girl, and now I get to do it with you all here.”Abigail smiled at Shelley’s enthusiasm, though a part of her still felt surreal about the whole thing. "I’m still wrapping my head around the idea of a joint wedding," she admitted with a soft laugh. "I

Isabella has also enjoyed her time with the girk gang- Shelley, Abigail and Rachel. Everything was going well. Shelley and Miles also got engaged recently. Alonzo and Abigail pulled up to the cozy restaurant nestled on the outskirts of town. The sky above them was painted in shades of soft pink and orange as the sun set, casting a serene glow over the evening. Alonzo glanced over at Abigail, who sat beside him in the passenger seat, looking radiant as ever."Ready for tonight?" he asked, his voice warm as he smiled at her.Abigail met his gaze, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "I’m ready. It’s been too long since we’ve all had a chance to just relax."Alonzo grinned, pulling into the parking lot. “Agreed. Plus, Shelley and Miles are always fun to hang out with.

    The morning sun cast a warm glow over the family estate as preparations for breakfast were in full swing. It was the day after the party celebrating Sebastian’s return, and though the night had been filled with joy and relief, today held a new sense of excitement. At least, for Alonzo and Abigail.They had spent the night talking, laughing, and savoring the reality of their engagement. Now, it was time to let everyone else in on their little secret.Alonzo stood by the large dining room window, watching as the family slowly gathered for breakfast. His heart raced in anticipation, not of nerves but of excitement. He turned to Abigail, who was seated at the far end of the table, catching her eye. She gave him a small, reassuring smile, her fingers absentmindedly brushing the engagement ring on her finger.“You ready for this?” Alonzo whispered as he approached her.Abigail nodded, biting her lip. “I am. But you know how they all are, especially Isabella. She’s going to be over the moon.
