Chapter 9. Disturbing Sight
Phillip
There I was, sitting in my car for like 9 minutes trying to get off the image of Rebecca’s beautiful face from my mind. I was startled when I saw her out so early, looking fresh and beautiful. I felt my heart squeeze, but I tried to keep my feelings from showing.
My advice for her to start exercising was actually to make her feel bad. Treating her badly seemed to be the only way to kill what I was feeling for her. I hadn’t felt this way in years, actually, since I’d been with Jessica.
Reminded of Jessica, I took out my cell and looked at the picture that had popped up on my phone days ago.
I felt the same pain I always feel whenever I looked at it, but I couldn’t stop myself from looking, and had refused to delete it.
I wanted to keep it as a reminder never to fall in love again.
"Stop being stupid,"

Becky's POVI slammed into my lodging, furious. I told myself I was annoyed because I was tired, and my heart ached because I was missing my mom and Wendy. It had nothing to do with seeing Phillip Dale making love to a beautiful woman in the hallway. I knew I was lying to myself.I had a very hot shower, hoping the hot water would burn the anger out of me. Then I changed into a sleeping gown, and began to comb my hair. My hair kept getting tangled in the stupid comb. Angrily, I threw it across the room. It hit the wall and I wished Phillip's head had been on that wall.Jealous! My mind mocked me.“No, I’m not,” I said aloud.Yes you are. You wish you were the one in his arms, but you’re not and will never be. Accept it! He doesn’t like you!I sighed sadly. I wondered how a day that had started so well was now ending so sadly.I went out, straight to Anna’s room after leaving Dom, and knocked gently on the door.“Come in, Rebecca dear.”I entered to see Anna sitting up in bed.“Good mo
Loving The Man I Wanted To Hate Chapter 11. Second Meeting
Becky's POVI couldn’t sleep that night. I wondered how long the person had been there or if anyone had been there at all.Was it my imagination?By six am, I was dressed. I went outside to see if I could find any sign of who could have been watching me, but I didn’t find anything.I saw the woman Phillip had been with come out. I hid behind the tree and watched her walk through the gate. My heart squeezed remembering she had spent the night with Phillip."Remember you said you had forgotten about Phillip," I told myself.I went back in and made coffee, then sat by the window sipping it slowly while waiting for Phillip to leave. I didn’t want to risk running into him.He came out at exactly 8:00am. My heart beat quickened despite my resolve. I watched him head for the garage and minutes later he drove away.
Loving The Man I Wanted To Hate Chapter 12: Admirer
Becky's POVI tried to hide my shock.“If I heard you clearly, Mr. Dale, I have done good work, but I can’t be retained. Why?”“You aren’t a good fit,” he explained.“Because you feel I am not strong enough?” I asked, genuinely puzzled.He sighed. “No, it’s not that. Look, you are good to my grandmother. I can see she really likes you, but she needs more care than you can give her,” he said.“What am I doing wrong?”“Nothing. But I would rather she was looked after by a professional. I have spoken with her and she also agrees. Don’t worry, your salary will be paid in full,” he said with finality.“When am I to leave?” I asked sadly, deciding not to argue further. It was clear he had already made up his mind.“Monday morning.”I nodded.“I meant to talk to you about Ms. Dale,” I began. “I think you should change her doctor.”He frowned. “Why?”I told him what had happened at the clinic.“Dr. Francis has no right to treat Gran that way,” he said furiously. “How long has this been going
Loving The Man I Wanted To Hate Chapter 13. Ultimatum
Becky's POVI let out a sigh of frustration as I hit the redial button on my cell. I had been calling my mom since yesterday, but she hadn’t been picking up her calls, and now her number was not going through. I have not spoken to her since I left home. However, I spoke to Wendy every day, and she told me our mom was fine and promised she would call me, but she did not, and she also did not reply to all the messages I had been sending her on social media. Then yesterday evening I’d noticed something troubling. At first, I tried to tell myself it was a glitch in the network or something, but by this morning I could no longer pretend. My mom had blocked me on social media and from calling her. I was sitting in the hospital waiting room. Anna was inside with Dr. Matthews, her new doctor.Phillip had wasted no time in finding her a new hospital, an exclusive place that catered to the rich. Dr. Matthews was a lot kinder than Dr. Francis had been. He had gently asked me to wait in the waiti

Becky's POV.“What do you mean by leaving?” Phillip asked.“What I said. I am leaving the house,” Anna said.“But why?” Phillip asked. “What is wrong? Did something happen at the doctor’s place?”“Nothing happened at the doctor’s place. But I am not going to stay in that house if Rebecca isn’t.”Phillip’s jaw dropped. “Come on Gran-”“I am here to inform you that Rebecca and I have gone house hunting.” She lied. “Since you insist on her leaving, then I am going too.” “But Gran-"“No but. If she goes, I go too. I have already found us a house, and we leave on Monday.” “Gran, we discussed this. I have told you why."“And I am telling you what I’m going to do unless you change your mind. So you had better have a rethink.”Phillip glared at me. “Is this your idea?” He demanded.“It is my idea,” Anna said firmly. “I am not senile. I can make my own decisions. And I have made it. If Rebecca goes I go.”“Listen Gran-““My decision is final. Think about it and make yours.” She turned to me,
Loving The Man I Wanted To Hate Chapter 15: Time’s Running Out
Celine's POV My dad had been calling me all morning, but I refused to pick up his calls. I knew what he wanted to say and was in no mood to hear it. He had given me no peace ever since I had met and started dating Phillip. Every time it was the same question."Has Phillip proposed yet?""No? Well, make him."As if it was possible to force a guy to marry you in this century. I sighed. I have tried every trick I know to get him to commit, but no way. The fact we were sleeping together hadn’t helped. I glanced at my watch.Lunchtime. I left my building and took a cab to his office, hoping to convince him to take me to lunch.“Mr. Dale isn’t seeing visitors,” his secretary told me, but I ignored her and barged into his office.“Hey babe, how about lunch? I asked smiling.He raised his head and my smile froze.“What are you doing here?” He demanded angrily. “I don’t remember inviting you over.”“I missed you. I was hoping we could go to lunch together.”“Look, Celine, our arrangement is

Becky’s PovI had just stepped out of the shower that morning, when there was a heavy knock on my door.“Coming!” I called.It came again, much louder. Either the person didn’t hear me, or they were just being annoying. I put on a robe and opened the door.Phillip came in. He was dressed in a dark suit and snow white shirt. He looked extremely handsome. The sight of him, and smell of his muscular cologne, took my breath away. Until I looked into his eyes, which were very unfriendly.“You have gotten what you wanted, haven’t you?” He said glaring at me.“Good morning, Mr. Dale,” I said sweetly. “Anything wrong?”He ignored me. “I don’t know what you did to my grandmother to get her so attached to you, but since she is, I have no choice but to let you stay.”“Thank you, Mr Dale. But I didn’t-““Don't thank me! Left to me, you would have been replaced with someone more competent.” I stared at him, trying to control my anger and desire at the same time. I wished he were ugly, so it would
Loving The Man I Wanted To Hate Chapter 17: Creepy Caregiver
Becky’s PovI was still admiring the pictures, when an elderly woman was wheeled in.She was about Anna’s age, size, and looked a little like her, except her bright blue eyes were dull and fearful. They brightened on seeing Anna. I knew instantly I would like her. The man pushing the wheelchair was another matter. He was in his early thirties, tall and dark haired, with a broad, pleasant smile. He looked friendly, but his gray eyes were cold and hard. I disliked him immediately.“Anna!” Brenda exclaimed. “It has been ages. I have missed you.”Anna laughed. “It has only been two weeks, dear. How are you feeling?”“Good and you? Where have you been? You weren’t at the club last week.”“I had a slight emergency.”“What happened?” Brenda asked, alarmed.“No, nothing serious, just a little change of staff. Meet my new caregiver, Rebecca.” Anna introduced me.“Nice to meet you sweetheart,” Brenda told me, smiling. “Nice to meet you too, Ms. Finley.” I said.“Call me Brenda. What happened to
