"I chose the second Jaiswal"Maya could not take her mind off the content of the piece of paper Mr Gabriel has left for her as he boarded his plane to leave the country.It was too plain and at the same time hard to understand.She couldn't tell what he meant by the one sentence, even to someone else she wouldn't be able to explain it.The Second Jaiswal. Who was that? Who exactly was that and what influence did the person have that made him give up his 20% stakeholder shares at her father's company.It just didn't make any sense to her considering how the company was the second best in terms of profit in the whole of Qhezon City, why would he give up his shares that easily without flinching and relocating abroad. Her heart missed beats the more she pondered on what had happened right in the twinkle of an eye.The elevator door she was in with a few other people at the Jasmine Company opened.She stared at the lady before her. She looked awkwardly familiar.It was the lady she h
Mia was that friend everyone would want to have. Bold, courageous, assertive and always looking out for other people's good regardless of the situation she found herself in.She never for once envious or jealous of the fact that Jasmine had been a Jaiswal throughout the years of their friendship.Seeing her reflection from the computer after what she had told her made Jasmine's heart break.Perhaps she was just annoyed that she wasn't listening to her advice. That must be it. There was no way Mia would be jealous of her. What was there about her for her to be jealous of.Perhaps someone had annoyed her and she didn't know any perfect time to express her anger but at her. Perhaps that was what had happened."Am I doing too much, Mia?" Jasmine asked.She felt the need to ask to get the reassurance she so desperately needed after seeing Mia's expression."No Jasmine. You're not. Don't for once think you are. Many that might be in your shoes will do worst. I'm surprised you haven't done a
Arun sat quietly at the back seat of the bar he was at, so angry and fidgety.Since time immemorial, even before he ascended ranks to be amongst the top ten billionaires of Qhezon City, no woman or human born of one had given him such disrespect Maya had.He was left wondering if he had done wrong loving her and all, framing and divorcing his wife, her sister for her and practically doing everything just to be with her.Now that he was with her, he couldn't even get a check of his emotions nor tell what the reason had been why he loved her so much in the past.She was so full of flaws, why couldn't he have seen the red flags before so he wouldn't have committed to her like he had.Though he tried as hard as he could to keep his emotions in check and not to dwell on his regret, he couldn't find a way to and without noticing, he constant saw himself and his thoughts in the direction he had wanted to pull them out from."What was so special about Maya that had made him abandon his ex sub
It was a bit late at night when Jasmine heard Marshall walk into her room.She had given him the permission to enter; this still left he wondering. He was practically housing her, feeding her and giving her all she needed and might want for her revenge. Of what use was all the respect he was always according her when he could use her however he pleased.She was nothing and a nobody and even if he were to mistreat her, no one would know not care. She was already dead in records and wouldn't raise much attention but yet he was always so kind and nice to her and this always leaves her wondering why."The jewelry store owner sent this as a token of his apology for the disrespect his former staff accorded you with before" he said before dropping a boxed gift on top of the table by the side of the room.He dropped some off by the stand as well, boxes of different sizes and shapes.The way he always did each and every time."I'll leave you to get some sleep then" he muttered and turned to l
The cool morning breeze that was blowing in the city of Qhezon was dim and promising.As if it held promises of an upcoming rain to the enthusiasts who would do anything for it to fall."The CEO of the Yugo group of companies would be having a party today...... " Maya heard on the news she was watching on TV. She didn't want to hear anything about him nor his name and at the same time, she couldn't snub her piqued curiosity about the party he was having and why he was doing so.Was he finally apologizing to her for how he ditched her at the altar or was it for another reason? Announce his marriage to the new woman that stole him from her?.Or perhaps bo one stole him from her. She was everything a man would ever want.The perfect ass, the pretty face oval to perfection, and with just about the right height for career women.There was no reason for Marshal Yugo to dump her at the altar without calling off the Marriage to her before hand, sponsoring the wedding fees and all only to
"Where is she? Where is that good for nothing bitch? Where is that godamned human? Where the fucking hell is she?" Mrs Jaiswal bellowed as she burst open the front door of the house with the house helpers screeching fearfully behind her,, afraid of what might become of Maya's own outburst when she finds out she let her in.Maya stood up as she saw her mother approaching. She knew she would come after she answered none of the calls she rung her."So is this how it's gonna be?" She asked Maya.Maya gave her no answers but instead turned to form disinterested in whatever she had to say.She knew she would come. She always did.Her brother was nothing to write home about and for that, her mother always came back to her regardless of how harsh her insults might sound."I know nothing about the sold shares" " Mother" she added out of courtesy." I'm not talking about the shares. That can wait. We can get it back by negotiating with the buyers. The shares isn't the reason I was calling you!
"I loved you, Arun. I did, so very much. I wanted to spend the rest of my life with you. I did agree to. I walked down the altar with you. I took the vows, I fucking took the vows because of you!!" "I never asked you to do that for me Jasmine. You did it on your accord. Don't try to pin the blame on me." "Don't fucking tell me that!! don't fucking tell me that!!" She screamed on top of her lungs, much that the other prisoners in the other ward across hers began to look at her with quizzing eyes. "You know how I hate being abandoned. You know how I hate the feeling. I never agreed to fall in love before because if it. I hated love. My thoughts were always pretty much the same. what if you left me, what if we got separated by death early in life . I'm so used to the feelings of being abandoned, don't fucking tell me that you're doing so. Don't tell me this divorce papers are real. I trust you, please" Her voice came very low and slowly, almost as if she were pleading with a kil
Jasmine's eyes opened and the sharp scent of antiseptic filled her nostrils. She didn't need anyone to tell her that she was in a hospital, the chains that binded her hands and legs to the bed were enough indication. "Jasmineeeee!!!!" She heard her name and she slowly turned to the entrance. The voice was unmistakenly familiar, the only voice that could offer her comfort amidst the turmoil within her soul. It was Mia, her best friend since childhood. They had carried their friendship to their adult ages after the death of their mother's, the tears in her eyes made a tear fall from hers as well. But Mia was not allowed in the ward she was in, so she stood at the entrance. Jasmine already knew why. She has fainted the time of her hearing and had been rushed to the hospital. Say, anytime soon, she would be discharged on the doctor's word and that would be it for her. Her judgement would be pronounced and she would rot in jail for years for a crime her husband, or should she say ex
