“You are nothing like my type,” he hissed, his face so close to mine that mine burned from the intensity, he definitely still had that intimidating aura from high school. This reminded me of how he would constantly back me up against my locker and tease me about all the things he hated about me until I burst out crying. He always enjoyed it, watching me cry. “Now… get the fuck out of my room.” He snapped as he pointed back at the door. ——————— Desperate to save the only family she had left in the world that cared about her, Mirabel Walter is forced into a marriage with a man from her past that had done nothing but make her life miserable, worse still, he was back with even more misery all the while being everyone’s favorite person. Determined to give him a taste of his own medicine and expose him to the entire world, Mirabel would have to do more than stay married to him, she would have to win his heart over even though it was the last thing she wanted to do.

Firstly he was standing too close, secondly, he was whispering in my ears in a way that made me feel slightly uncomfortable. I've never been this close to a man before but somehow his presence made my heart beat faster than normal."My…" I began but he cut me off."You don't learn now, do you? I've told you to stop trying. Stop trying hard to get me to look at you but somehow you don't listen. It seems you love my attention so much, isn't that it?""I… that's not true," I replied, my heart beating so loud that I wondered if he could also hear the rate at which my heart was beating. "Then what is true Mira." I shuddered at the sound of his voice when he mentioned my name for the first time. He has always referred to me as a girl. I never thought hearing my name from his mouth would sound so good."My skirt…. It…""Yes, your skirt is too short and it is barely covering your ass. Are you trying to seduce y
MIRABEL"Is it that you've never had a boyfriend or you don't want to have a boyfriend because I'm certain that lots of men would have wanted you." If only she knew my story but I didn't bother talking much about it. "I don't know. I just didn't have men lining up for me and besides I had lots of things to focus on so even if I did have, it would have eventually ended." I replied."That's true but now you are all set. You should try dating but then again don't take my words seriously and don't bother if you don't find the right person because trust me when I say that it's not worth it when you mean useless people." She sighed deeply. "Take me for instance. I still believe in love. I believe that the love I read in books and watch movies still exists and that's what I'm holding on to hence the reason I've chosen that until I see that love, I'm going to focus on the fun aspect and that's sex!" She cheered after her last word and I chuckled.I glanced at my wristwatch and in panic mod
MIRABEL"This is wrong! What the fuck have you done? I asked for you to arrange them all accordingly to how it should be but somehow you managed to make it worse. The details is evident and all you have to do is arrange them like you do in school. What is wrong with you!" Giveon shouted at me, throwing the papers all in my face.I swallowed the knot that formed at the back of my throat. To say I was tired would be an understatement. I was more than tired. I was exhausted and frustrated. Since morning I've been going all over it and trying to fix it but it's like every time I present it to him, it just gets worse.I was holding myself from crying because I was close to crying. He was shouting and now I didn't know how to pick it all up and restart because I'd done it every way that I could. Would it make me a bad person that I was recording him while he shouted at me? After the third time that he shouted at me, I chose to record him."You are so dense and dumb. I can't even stand you.
MIRABELI had the best first day at work all thanks to Beauty. We exchanged contacts and after office hours, we met up.She wanted to shopping to get new clothes because she wanted to change her wardrobe. I would have refused but because I was enjoying her company, I followed her. We ended up having fun while shopping and she got me some matching slippers with her.She said it was the start of our friendship and she prayed for me to not lose my job or she'd go crazy. The thought of that made me a little sad but that motivated me to do so well so that Giveon wouldn't get angry. After his morning schedule and he left for whatever he had in the afternoon, he didn't return to work as he asked me to handle everything.I didn't know what exactly to do but I was certain I tried my best. When I got home, I was feeling full as I ate some street food with Beauty before we went our separate ways."You look excited," Miranda commented, walking towards me with her walking stick.I smiled at her,
MIRABEL"I'm so sorry sir. I didn't intend for this to happen." I apologized, taking a step closer to him."Just stay right where you are at!" He chided and i halted on my track more like froze."You didn't intend to?" He scoffed. "Don't lie. You knew what you did. I clearly stated that and for you to remember everything else but not my coffee is enough that you wanted to ruin my day. Now I have no good coffee which means no good morning!" "I can quickly make another one for you," I suggested."Just get lost." He stated firmly.He was outright rude but I had no choice but to keep shut. I hated being scolded or yelled at, it was enough to trigger my tears but while working at different places to earn money for my mom's treatment, I had to get used to it without having to break down. "What are you waiting for?” He growled. "Do you need me to drag you out of my office myself? Leave." He snapped.I walked out of his office. Once I was out, I leaned at the door to calm my heart. It took
MIRABEL"You must have forgotten that you are a married woman. Coming back home by this time of the night? Where did you go to?" He asked.For someone who had his own life, he was sure interested in mine way too much, or maybe that was his way of making me regret getting married to him; a marriage I already regretted before I got into it."Where were you?" He asked again when I didn't give him a reply to his first question."Are you not going to give me an answer?" He chastised."I went out." Came my simple response.He let out a dry laugh, taking some intimidating steps towards me. "I don't think I gave you any rules when you entered this house, or did I?" He shook his head."I doubt and that's why I'm going to be giving you rules because there's no way that I'd share the same house as you and not show you your place." I swallowed the invisible lump that formed in my throat now that he was standing in front of me. I thought all the fear that I had for Giveon ended in high school bu
MIRABEL“Who is she?” I heard a feminine voice from inside and I guessed it to be the woman that I saw him with banging.What a wonderful Monday for me walking into the office to see my husband banging another woman shamelessly and thankfully I didn’t care for him enough to let his actions affect me. I wasn’t too surprised about the kind of person that he was because he was a big flirt back in high school and although he was a year ahead of me, he had every girl in high school wanting to be on his bed.It’s so funny that after so many years, he hasn’t changed and he claimed to have a a girlfriend he loved. I scoffed in disbelief. Shortly after, the door opened and an angry-looking Giveon stood beside the door.“Good morning Giveon…”“It’s Sir to you henceforth and where is your manners? Did you forget it before you left the house? How dare you barge into my office without knocking and don’t know what the time is?” He uttered through his teeth, clearly pissed but my mind and eyes wer
MIRABEL"It's over!" I muttered in the realization that I had woken up late.I was certain I set my alert to wake me up by 6:00am but somehow I overslept and woke up at 7:30am, the time I was supposed to join Giveon at the car to go to work.My first day at work was already a mess and it was evident that Giveon was going to punish me for coming late. The first thought that came to my mind when I woke up late was how I was going to find out where the company was. I didn't have a good relationship with my grandfather to call him and ask for some directions asking why I didn't know it already. I left the bed after moments mentally fighting myself for waking up late although I slept early to go take my bath.I barely used ten minutes in the bathroom before I came out to get dressed. I settled for my two-piece grey office outfit that I had prepared for today before touching my face with a little makeup as I didn't have enough time to waste.I didn't want to arrive at the office later tha
MIRABELI sighed deeply as I sat on my bed with my towel wrapped around my body. Tomorrow would be my first day at work and I wasn't prepared. I have never worked in an office before. I didn't even finish college because my mom fell ill and I've been struggling with life. If it wasn't for the situations I had, I should have graduated college two years ago but sadly I didn't. I never studied business, I don't know what it's about but somehow I have to start working as Giveon's assistant.I will be working with him from tomorrow. Earlier today, Zara brought some clothes for me if he needs them for work tomorrow. I was expecting someone to come explain to me what it was that I'd do but no one has. This might be a perfect opportunity for me to get close to Giveon and expose him just as I had intended to do but for some reason, I didn't think that I'd be able to pull through with it. Just as I got rid of my towel to wear my pajamas, the door to my room opened and Giveon stepped in. My
MIRABEL “Your mother’s insurance doesn’t cover her immunotherapy so that’s why you need to pay up.” The doctor said to me with a much calmer tone than the others. I was seated in front of him, holding on tightly to my pants as my mind raced with the possibility of losing my mother. She was all I had left and losing her after we had just lost Dad, I would never survive it. “I understand this is too much for you and that’s why I am suggesting you ask a relative for help. Anyone? A friend? Family?” He asked and I shook my head as I fought back the tears that threatened to spill. It was just the two of us, no one else. “Listen Mirabel, your mom doesn’t have much time and that’s why I am advising you to find someone that can help, it’s the only way because you can’t possibly raise such an amount on your own.” He advised. He was right, I knew he was right but there was no one else. There was really no one else. As I made my way out of his office and towards my mom’s room, the t...
