Evelyn's POV
"Miss Moore, re do this file. There are several mistakes in it." Said my cold arrogance boss.'Oh god, not again. I'm so done with his drama.' I thought to myself."I've done it correctly, sir. I even rechecked everything before presenting it to you." I said with greeted teeth.I know very well there is nothing wrong with the file. He is just picking on me unnecessarily. He just wants to annoy me."You are not here to talk back to me. Just do as I say." He replied."Then please enlighten me about my mistakes so that I can improve it." I asked innocently."Just find it yourself. Learn to see your own mistakes and rectify them. Now you may leave. " He said and dismissed me from his cabin."Devil Robinson, I'll choke you to death. " I cursed him under my breath. I know it was my mistake that I misunderstood him on our first meeting, but he is going too far. He always makes me do the same work again and again.I get back to my desk, and I just changed the front page and font of the text, printed the analysis report as it is.'I know, Mr Devil Robinson, you have not gone through the report yet, so you won't know that it's the same file.' I smirked at my thought.I went back to his cabin and submitted the report. He looked at it carefully and said, " Good, now it's better. Be careful from the next time. Don't make silly mistakes. ""But isn't it the same content. I just changed the font." I said and narrowed my eyes at him. He was speechless."Mr Robinson, you are picking on me intentionally. You didn't even go through the file and asked me to re do everything. This is so unfair. " I said, and he was trying to form words." I didn't like the previous font and design Miss Moore, so I asked to make it again." He shamelessly gave that dumb excuse, and I wanted to slap him so hard for that shitty remark.I stormed out of the cabin in anger. I packed my stuff and headed back home. I'll go insane if I stay with this even for a second. I'm done with his nonsense for today.I swear I saw that nasty smirk on his face when I was leaving the cabin.After having a long with that devil troubling me, I'm finally home. I took a shower and cooked some pasta for myself. After eating and cleaning the dishes, I went to my bedroom.As soon as I lay on the bed, it felt like heaven. Finally, I can rest. I closed my eyes and waited for sleep to take over, but my phone started ringing.What the hell. Who is calling at this hour? My blood boiled when I saw the caller ID. It's none other than Devil Robinson."What do you want at this hour?" I snapped as soon I picked his call."Is that a way to talk to your boss, Miss Moore?" he was offended by my tone and as if I care about that."What do you want, sir?" I asked why greeting my teeth."I want you, Miss Moore. " he said huskily, and heat rose to my cheeks."What are you saying?" I asked."I mean I want you to be here with me right now. I have some work for you." he said, and I felt the strong urge to give some piece of my mind ."You are getting too far, Mr Robinson. It's already past my working hours . I'm not coming. " I said."If that's the case, then I'm afraid that I've to look for another secretary. I don't want a secretary who goes to sleep when her boss is working overtime. " he said."You are so cruel, Devil Robinson ." I gasped when I realized what I just called him." What did you say?" He questioned."Nothing, sir. I'll just come to the office in a while." I said sheepishly."No need. Just tell me your address. It's not safe for you to travel alone at this hour. I just want to discuss some details about tomorrow's presentation and also see if you are well prepared. We can do that at your place. " he suggested."Why at my place when we can do it in office?" I objected."Don't worry, I won't do anything to you if that's your concern. I'm least interested in you. And it's going to be only two of us either we do the work at office or your home. All the staff have left already. I was just concerned about your safety." I said.'Concern my foot. I know how much concerned you are, Mr Devil Robinson. Always making plans to annoy me and fire me.' I thought to myself."Ok, I'll text you the address. " I hung up before waiting for his reply.I texted him and went to change and wear something more appropriate. I don't want him to see me in my sexy nightgown. Who knows if that devil tries to do something after seeing me in this.After 20 minutes, the doorbell rang. I opened the door to see my boss. He didn't even wait for me to invite him inside. He just walked inside as if he owned the place."Would you like to have some water, sir?" I asked politely."No need to bother Miss Moore. " he smiled, and everything he smiled, I felt something fishy.But it's a relief that he is going straight to work rather than bothering me about other things and waste my time."If you don't mind, can I get some coffee. I'm so addicted to the coffee you make." he said sweetly. I know all this sweetness is just an act."Sure, sir." I replied."And something to eat too. I haven't eaten dinner yet. " he added.How did I even expect that he won't bother me? But it's late. He must be really hungry. Even if I don't like him but I should not let anyone starve.I cooked some steak for him. And he enjoyed it. He was trying not to moan when he had the first bite, but I noticed it."Thanks for the food and coffee. Now, let's get to work. I want you to make some changes in the presentation you made. I have already highlighted the points you need to change. Plus, I would like you to give the presentation in front of me now so that I can get an idea if you need any improvement."Ok, Sir," I said."This deal means a lot to me, Evelyn. I've worked hard for it for months. I'm serious this time. I'm not making you do this just to annoy you." he stated, and I'm glad that he is not doing it to irritate him.We worked on the presentation for hours, and he was also helping me a lot. I thought it was just his way to increase the workload on me, but he is serious this time. This is the first time I'm not frustrated while working with him.When we finished the work, I got up from the couch and stretched my arms. I was about to walk to the kitchen to get some water, but I tripped on foot and fell on the couch that was too on top of Sebastien.Our faces were just inches apart, and it reminded me about that night with him. I could feel his hot breath on my lips, and my ears were getting hot.He closed the gap between our lips, and I closed my eyes as our lips met.Sebastien's POV I didn't even realise when our lips met, then thought of Bella emerged in my head, and I pulled away from the kiss."I'm sorry, I didn't realise. " I said while trying to avoid eye contact. She was still lying on top of me, all flustered. I don't know what's about her that make me forget everything whenever she is around me. She makes me feel things like Bella used to so. No one beside Bella have ever had such an effect on me. I need to maintain my distance from her. I can't let this happen again.My trail of thought was broken when her phone startedringing. She quickly set up and picked up the call."Hello, who is it?" she asked. I couldn't hear the response of the other person, but the discomfort on her face could tell me something was definitely off."Why do you keep calling me? Just stop it. I don't want your nonsense anymore. " she yelled and disconnected. "What happened? Who was it? Are you fine?" I asked her."It's nothing, sir. You don't have to worry about
Evelyn's POV I am so nervous about the presentation. this deal means a lot to Sebastien, and I don't want to make any mistakes. Otherwise, he'll fire me. "Let's go, Evelyn," Sebastien said, and we went to the meeting room. Sebastien shook hands with Mr Parker, and we greeted them."Welcome, Mr. Parker. I hope you are doing well. This is Evelyn, my secretary. She will be the one giving the presentation today. " Sebastien said."Hello Evelyn, pretty name for a pretty lady," Mr Parker said while smiling at me, and I smiled back. Something about his gaze was making me uncomfortable. Everyone settled at their place, and I started the presentation. The whole time, Mr. Parker was gawking at me. I was already nervous about the presentation, and his gaze was making it hard for me. After I finished the presentation, Sebastien discussed the deal with Mr Parker further. And I was standing beside Sebastien. Mr. Parker was still staring at me."Is everything fine? You look so pale." Sebastien
Evelyn's POV As I've planned to make things up with Sebastien, today I'm cooking lunch for him. 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. After that, you have to go through the outfit design for our next product launch. Then you have to attend a fashion design contest as a chief
Sebastien's POV 'She is going to resign. It means she won't be by my side anymore.' I thought to myself. "But isn't it what you wanted from the beginning. You wanted her out of your sight. You wanted to make her resign. It was your main aim from day one to irritate her and break her to the point that she resigned herself. " My conscience was mocking me."Yes, I wanted it. But....." I don't know what to say anymore. "But what??? Your purpose was to be her biggest nightmare, but you became soft to her. For a moment, you are being mean, then other moments you become soft . You are being bipolar Sebastien Robinson," said my inner voice."No, I'm not being soft to her. I don't even like her. I just hate her," I tried to defend myself. "Oh, just shup up, man . You can fool everyone but not me. I'm your conscience, a part of you, so I know you better."Just when I was busy in the battle of my thoughts, I noticed that she was not here anymore. 'No, I can't let her leave me. She can't go
Evelyn's POV I'm really very excited to go out with him. I don't know where he is going to take me. My curiosity is not letting me sleep. 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
Evelyn's POV I woke up to find myself lying on Sebastien's chest. Our legs were entangled together. It made me blush, and I tried to get out of his hold. My movement woke him up.Our eyes met, and I just got lost in them.I got up and ran into the bathroom and locked it. My heart was beating so fast.' Am I falling for him? But what if he doesn't feel the same? He said he won't love anyone but Bella.'This thought made me sad.When I got ready and made the breakfast, I called him for breakfast. "After breakfast, we'll go to my place first so that I can get changed, then I'll take you to the place I mentioned. " he told me.We got to his place, and he went for a shower and got dressed. While he was driving, I asked," Where are we going?""You will find out soon." he replied, and I pouted. "At least give me some hint." I whined. "It's a place where your curiosities will get filled. You will get answers to your questions." He told me, and I stayed silent for the rest of the ride. H
Third Person's Pov Sebastien was waiting in his car outside Evelyn's house. They were going out for a movie, then amusement park. After Bella's death, his life was colorless. He became so cold. But after his last visit at her cemetery with Evelyn, he decided to be happy and live his to the fullest. He honked, and Evelyn ran out and got into the car."Sorry to keep you waiting," she said ."What took you so long, young lady?" He asked her while helping her to fasten her seat belt. "I was having a hard time choosing the outfit," she said with a pout."But why did you get the tickets for a horror movie? Let's watch Marvels or some romantic movie, she suggested. "Why? Don't tell me you are afraid of horror films," he smirked at her.She folded her hands over her chest and tried to act brave," No, I'm not afraid of horror films. I was just concerned about you. I don't want you to get scared and scream during the movie. It will be embarrassing for you.""Okay, if I get scared, then be my
Third Person's POV"Is she your fiance?" Evelyn asked softly. "Do you have any doubt about it? Of course, I'm his fiance, and you are just trying to steal my man. So don't try to act innocent. " Emily called out.Evelyn felt bad at that moment. For her, it was hard to accept the fact that the person she loved had you feelings for someone else. That's Bella. But after knowing everything about Bella and what Sebastien has gone through after losing her, she thought she could win his heart and make him happy again. But she never expected that he have a fiance. "Enough, Emily," Sebastien roared. "Sebastien, why are you shouting at me? This girl is crossing her boundaries. She needs to learn her lesson. " Emily said. "You are also crossing your boundaries, Emily. Don't forget that there is nothing between you and me. I haven't made any commitment to you. As for the marriage, you also know that I agreed it just because of my parents. And we are not married yet nor engaged. I can still ca
