Evie peeked at herself in the rearview mirror for the thousandth time. This was the first time she was going to Global Corporation, and she didn't even tell Blake she was coming. What if he was with another woman?
She swallowed as the thought flashed through her mind. She slapped herself lightly, why was she thinking the worst right now?
Breathing in, she arranged her dress. These days, she was forgetting that she was a celebrity, a top one at that. It was surely going to be on all social media that she went to Global Corporation to see Blake, but Evie hadn't been happier about any rumor, in fact, she intentionally didn't cover her face with a mask when she stepped down from the car.
Her guard went ahead and explained to the security, such that as she arrived, they showed her to the elevator leading to the top floor while her guard waited for her on the first floor.
Her heart raced as the numbers read, when she was almost there, she started contempl
Blake gazed at her amused; ''No, I'm talking of anyone that comes to see me, she might have been rude to them.'' He chuckled; was she jealous?''oh;” Evie nodded;''And I was so glad to see you, you just made my day. My meeting didn't end well, but seeing you now, I'm just so happy.” Blake smiled as he rubbed her cheeks, making it redden the more.For a second, Evie thought she was intentionally doing it so he could watch her turn all shades of red.''Well, there's a reason I came;” Now she thought about it, it wasn't enough reason to come all the way there, but then, she couldn't out rightly tell him she had come to see him.''The role has been given to you officially; you just need to sign the contract. And the welcome party is next week Friday.”“Damn, everything is happening so fast.”She smiled; ''yeah, I've looked through the script, you'll be given tomorrow after the contract signing.&r
Tristin sat in her couch as she played a game on her phone, trying to distract herself from the fact that she actually came here by herself only to be imprisoned.Today, she wasn't even allowed to leave her room. She screamed and screamed but no-one even answered until she got tired and kept quiet. As expected, he had turned off her internet connection, so she wouldn't tell anyone what was going on, she was frustrated but she tried to hold it in and breathe, if she thought about it for an extra second, she was going to run mad.Just then, a knock came on her door. She lifted her eyes briefly to look at the door and without saying a word; she turned back to the phone in her hands. The person knocked a few more times before he unlocked the door and walked in.She raised her eyes and when she saw that it was her father, she frowned and turned back to her phone.Mr. Brown walked forward and sat in front of her, but she did not say a word to him as though he w
“Tylor… '' her voice trembled. He was staring at her as though she was a stranger. No, he was staring at her like he was trying to mask what he was feeling, as though there was someone making him do what he's doing. She gulped and walked closer to him;“Don't… don't come any further. '' his voice trembled as he spoke, making Tristin stop on her spot.“Ty… what's wrong? You can talk to me… please…”Tylor’s heartbeat raced. He saw her when she came, he didn't know if he could be able to pull it through but he couldn't risk flopping and most importantly now. Her father would be very alert now since he knew she was coming to see him, he was sure he had people watching them, so he had to act the part.It broke him in so much seeing her that way but he couldn't do anything.“Tristin, it's over between us.”Tristin felt her whole body freeze at his words;''wh
“Damn I love your skin it’s soft and you are so beautiful!” Even though it was an obvious question, Lynn couldn't help asking.Irene smiled as she covered the pot sitting on the cooker, some maids were in the kitchen with her, when she said she wanted to prepare dinner, they didn't know she meant it. They had accompanied her but they didn't know how to start a conversation, but when she talked with them, they all became free and starting chatting. Now, they could talk about all the things they had gossiped about her at her back.''Stop, it's just as soft as yours, don't flatter me.” Irene laughed as she felt Lynn’s skin. Lynn smiled. Everyone liked Irene already, she was so sweet and talked to them freely.''You are so pretty, Kate is pretty too, but I think you're prettier.” One of the maids spoke, and everyone kept mute. They didn't expect that anyone would openly compare her to Kate. They didn't know if she would get annoye
Evie and Blake walked out of the company, his hands were in his pockets as they walked towards their car, suddenly he saw a man almost run into her and he reflexively pulled her to the other side.''Watch where you are going; '' he said to the man but he didn't respond. Evie smiled and looked behind her; she was sure it was a freak because the road was wide enough, so if he was walking in front of her, it was intentional.''It's one of my fans, well not fans, but then I don't know what to call them, you know, even when there is a rule, they just don't obey it, and you can't keep reporting every person that runs into you. They can say it was a mistake.”Blake sighed; ''yeah, one of the disadvantages of being a celebrity.” He opened the passenger's seat and she got in, then he got into the driver's side.''Do you realize you're a celebrity now?” she asked with a chuckle. Sometimes she wondered if he even knew he was a celebrity. Starring i
Evie’s eyes remained on his face for a few seconds, she didn't want to assume things but it was a little obvious he liked her. His every action showed it, the way he looked at her, spoke to her, touched her… she wondered why he wasn't asking her out yet.Blake glanced at her and she realized that she had stared for too long and she quickly looked away.''Thank you.”''Where do you want to shop?”She replied and the drive was quiet. Evie peeked at Blake once in a while, she hadn't noticed it earlier, but he looked troubled, he would brush his head back once in a while and adjust on his seat, as though something was on his mind.Looking away from him, she stared outside the window. Soon, they were driving into the store. She was a frequenter, so when they saw her, they quickly attended to her.''What do you want to wear, a short or a long dress?” he asked as she looked through the dresses the attendants brought t
''Get ready, she is here now.” Irene whispered excitedly to everyone as they stood in front of her closed dressing room; they waited excitedly as they watched the closed doors; after a few seconds, the door opened and Kate walked out majestically in her long wedding gown.There was a momentary pause as their eyes fell on the beauty before them. She looked like she was just let down from the sky. Her steps sounded on the floor as her light chuckle brought them back to their senses;''How do I look?”Mary and Dorothy just walked in and that was the first sight that met their eyes;''Oh my God! Kate, you are beautiful, this is too much for my eyes!” Dorothy exclaimed as she walked to her and embraced her in a beautiful hug. She was so happy that her eyes teared up;''I can't believe this is happening; I think someone should wake me up.” Dorothy cried and others laughed; the cameramen were there to record every scene of it. Ever
They were still lost in each other's gaze when the celebrant cleared his throat; ''Love is such a beautiful thing. '' He said and everyone laughed.Kate cheeks flushed and her eyes broke away from Liam; she looked behind him and she smiled when she saw Blake. He was the groom's man.Liam didn't have any friends, so it was trouble when he was to choose a groom's man, she suggested Blake since he had become close to them since after the event with Melinda.It wasn't a bad idea, and when he asked him, he had accepted immediately, and coincidentally, Evie was her bridesmaid too, although she was suspecting there was something between them, she didn't want to jump to conclusions, but it was rare for her intuitions to be wrong;''You both look so perfect, like a pair made in heaven. Ah, you make us singles jealous. '' The celebrant joked and everyone laughed again, lightening the emotional mood that filled the room from the procession and the slow song.
