2024-10-29 19:42:56"Morning, girls." Dad greeted with his usual smile.
"Morning, dad." Celine and I greeted in unison. Dad smiled in reply and we both started having our breakfast."So, everything set for the photoshoot?" Mum asked. Oh, she is a perfectionist unlike me. I'm a bit clumsy and mum often tells me that I got all these qualities from dad."Yeah, we just have to go there," I replied making a plastered smile."Good. Don't mess things up. I don't want Adam to get a bad impression on you, especially during this photoshoot." Mum warned me with a stern face pointing the bloody butter knife towards me.Well, not to get a bad impression... you should have said that earlier mum. I already made my...not bad but worst impression in front of him. On contrary, he too showed his worst side to me. I mean, what else side can be worse than being all cryptic, cold, and angry, huh?. Such a brat, I pity myself for falling into this situation and marryRelated chapters

We both were driving when and were talking about random things."Yeah, right. I forgot. What about the outfit for the photoshoot?" Martin asked after snapping fingers when he remembered this."The staff from the wedding agency are gonna look into that," I replied still fixing my eyes on the road."Oh. Will your outfit be the tux you have selected for your wedding?" Martin asked. I can clearly hear the excitement in his tone."Not precisely. There may be a chance that the wedding agency may change the outfit for pre-wedding. There will also be wedding photoshoot.....so..... you know they don't want to mix things up." I replied occasionally looking at Martin."How much chance is there that you have a tux for this pre-wedding photoshoot?" Martin asked with a little bit of excitement and sadness in his tone. He sure got a thing for tuxedos."Got a heavy chance. But by the way, why are you so interested in tuxe
Married To My Rival. 39. Ralph's caring and handsome Adam.
After traveling for an hour or more, we finally reached the location. "Madam, we are here," Ralph said while driving the car to the parking lot. "You again called me madam?" I asked with a pout. "It takes time to call by your first name," Ralph said with a smile while looking at me from the rare view mirror. "Okkay....fine," I said while looking outside. Ralph parked the car and the three of us came out. We were walking out of the parking lot searching for the entrance when we found a guy coming towards us, he must be one of the wedding planners. He came and stood in front of us, looking at the three of us... it was like he's searching for someone. "Hello, good morning." He greeted us with a smile and in a polite way. "Good morning." Celine, me, and Ralph greeted back. Well....not in unison but yeah with a second difference. "Sorry to ask but, are you, Miss. Evelyn Lawrenson?"
Married To My Rival. 40. The flirt king(part-1).
We both were walking around the area talking about some random things. "You look all ready for the marriage," Martin commented with a wink. "Shut up. Don't make me talk about the marriage out loud and as far as I have known that arrogant girl, no one wants to marry her unless and otherwise, they don't know about her true behavior." I replied with a small annoyed tone. "You always say that," Martin said while turning towards me and started walking backward. "I'm stating a fact. Now, walking normally, you will get hurt otherwise." I said with a hand gesture. "I won't," Martin said with a small smile on his lips. "You never listen to my words," I said while shaking my head sideways. "What a coincidence. I feel the same about you." Martin said with a fake surprised tone. I rolled my eyes in reply. "How far did the merging came?" Martin asked after a few minutes of silence and stil
Married To My Rival. 41. Ralph's company(part-2).
"Can't wait to see her," Martin said with an excited tone.Ralph chuckled looking at Martin. I really need to ask Martin about this thing. We were talking.....mostly like they both were talking when I heard a familiar tone. I turned my head towards the other side and found...Evelyn.Well, Ralph wasn't lying when he compared her to the freshly bloomed flower. She looked gorgeous in that red dress. I hate to say it but yeah she looks good.But every time I think she's beautiful and I try to give her a chance of letting her see my good side, she always loses it by showing her arrogant behavior. She has never changed since then.The same amount of arrogance and hot head. I was looking at her when Martin asked me about her look and I ended up giving what I really thought at that moment. Right, after the comment I made she ended up blushing, I let out a soft scoff after seeing that."I have to admit Ralph, you weren't lying about her,"
Married To My Rival. 42. Destruction of jealousy's kiss(PART-3).
I drove to the restaurant whose location Raph sent and came out of the car as if I was the only one without waiting for Martin. I know what I did was brutal and I shouldn't hurt him more when he's already hurt, but I was angry....and jealous. I couldn't control my anger. I came out of the parking lot and Martin followed me without uttering a single word. We met Ralph and the other outside the restaurant and went inside. I sat on the other end of the table and Martin sat beside me. Ralph, Evelyn, and Celine sat opposite us. We ordered food and started eating it. I was eating without saying anything when I heard a beep sound from my phone. I saw a text message from the wedding planners. I kept it back in my pocket and turned towards Evelyn. "Evelyn," I called her with a plastered smile. "Ha?" She replied while looking at me. "The wedding planners texted me saying they will send the pics of today's photoshoot by tomorrow," I said what I w
Married To My Rival. 43. Ralph finally found the one.
Soon the photoshoot began and the photographer was telling us the stills. I looked at Adam and he wasn't even paying attention. He was looking at something. He looked back at me when the photographer asked him to.His eyes showed hatred and piss. What did I do this time to make him feel like that?. Sometimes, listening to his cold tone and harsh words makes me feel....sad. What was my fault?. I agree that I am rude...arrogant and sometimes act stupid, I deserve to be scolded but the disgust he shows...I don't deserve that.I came out of those thoughts when I heard the photographer called everyone to change the location. We were walking to the next location when I asked him to be more alive.....I admit I was harsh but his reply was way too harsh and rude.That clearly showed the disgust he has on me. I hate it...It's hurting me. But as I have said, Celine was there to console me."It's okkay. Don't mind him." Celine said with a soft tone while holding
Married To My Rival. 44. Where is Martin?.
My head was aching from lack of sleep and while thinking about last night. I think I was too stubborn yesterday. I shouldn't have done that. I should have let my desire take control over me. I closed my eyes and was regretting the things I did when the sound of alarm jolted me and brought me back to reality.I sighed and turned it off. I sat on the bed and closed my eyes again. But the sadness in Martin's eyes flashed again. He has been sad even before I kissed him and the behavior change and flirting with Ralph that's a whole different story. What's going on with him?.Why is the sad?. These two questions are frustrating and wrecking my heart at the same. I came out of my thoughts when I heard a door knock. Damn it, who is it that's knocking on the door early morning. I got up from the bed with a frustrated face and went towards the door. I opened the door and found the housemaid holding a tray in her hands."Good morning, young master." She greeted
Married To My Rival. 45. Is Celine sad?(part-1).
The next morning I woke up after feeling myself relaxed. I turned towards my other side and I didn't find Celine. I sat back on the bed and took my phone. When I checked the time it was almost 10. I sat back with a jolt and went inside the bathroom to get freshen up. What the hell, the time's already 10 and no one bothered to wake me, even this Celine didn't wake me. I got fresh up in no time and went downstairs. I found mum and dad in the living room and there's no sign of Celine in the hall. I went towards the dining room and she wasn't there either. The maid brought the coffee and I went towards the living room holding the coffee mug."Good morning, Eve." Dad greeted with a big smile. "Morning, dear." Mum greeted right after dad. "Morning," I said greeted back with a smile, and sat on the couch. "Why didn't you guys wake me up?" I said while making myself comfortable on the couch. "You seemed tired, these days. So

I didn't knew a honey moon would be this fun. It's really been a long time since I went out without any stress or tensions. I know Martin can handle the company but I still ahve my doubts. I really hope this idiot won't mess things up. I hate seeing those kinds. It was a nice move in doing work even during this time. Things were going pretty well."Hold on, let's be friends in the first place. I don't want things to be worse by us fighting even when I'm having a vacation." Evelyn sighed."I was thinking the same. At least let's not fight." I added. I'm really sick of these fighting and I don't want her to cry more than what she already cried.We went to different places and had so much fun time. I didn't know things were this good with her when we stop fighitng."You're working?" She asked."Yeah gotta check some documents before signing. Not everyone have people like Lyla to take care of." I shouted back."What so, you're jealou

I walked back into the room and found the track pant and t-shirt he preapred for me on the bed. I grabbed the clothes and changed into them. They smell exactly like him. Ha, they are tmepting. I didn't look at his house completely. So, I thought of taking a look. I was looking at the room when I saw a photo on the bedside table. In that I saw Ralph along with other two persons. Must be his parents. He looked cute when he was young. Was it during his graduation?. He was holding a bouquet. I was keeping the photo back when it felt down. Oh, shit, please don't break. I kneeled down in a hurry and grabbed the photoframe. Luckily, it didn't break. I was keeping it agian when the below shelf held another photo."I didn't notice it here." I said to myself as I grabbed the photo. My smile faded when I saw, I saw Ralph and another guy hugging each other while the other guy kissed his cheek. It wasn't graduation one but sure Ralph looked younger in it. Were they related?. Is he h

On top of that, this bastard left me with the new project details. I took my phone and called him."Hello?" He answered with a happy tone."What are you doing?" I asked with a casual tone as I clenched my fist."Oh, I just went to an amusment park with Evelyn. She's fucking scared with the rollar coaster. You should have seen her face. She nearly died of heart attack." He said in between his laughter. Damn he's enjoying his life where I was beaten to death by this stupid work."Hey don't hit me. It hurts even if it's a pillow. Hahaha, it's true though." It's been 4 years since I heard that smile and teasing from him. God, I missed that smile..... so much. All my anger and the reason I called has calmed down and a soft smile appeared on my face. I can't resist but to smile knowing that he's finally happy."Hello?. Martin you there?" He asked after getting tired from fighting."Yeah." I said while shaking my head to come out of the tranc

The moment Master said, I can take care of the company, I almost fainted. My body felt numb and I was about to fall when Ralph held me."You alright?" He asked."Yeah, just sensitive to shocking news." I said as I held my head.Mr. and Mrs. Lawrenson along with Master left the mansion and my anger was fuming."Let's go home." Ralph said with his cute tone."Just a minute. I have something to discuss with Adam." I said while gritting my teeth."O-okkay." He replied. I walked to his room and flung the door open. As I entered the room, I saw him packing his bags."You're here?. I was about to call you." Adam said with a smile as he looked at me from his suitcase."What is it?" I asked maintianing my cool composure."I want you to take care of the company for about two weeks." He said adding fuel to my anger."That's what master said." I said gritting my teeth."I know. And send me the files that are need

I didn't get what happened at the party. All I know is I was having a headache after I took a drink and felt drowsy later on, then slept. I don't even remember how I came home. But the words Adam said scared the shit out of me. I slammed the doors later on when Adam strictly told me that he fucking fired me from the office. I was crying in my room, when I heard a door knock. I didn't care. I didn't even replied, later on the door was opened and felt another person's presence. A strong smell hit my nose and I realized who it was even before knowing that person."L-Li." I said softly and broke out. She ran towards me and hugged me from side."What happened?." She asked with a worried tone."I-I don't know. Adam shouted on me and fired me from work. I don't understand why." I said in between my sobs."I'm here. It's fine." She hugged me tight."W-Why is this happening to me?." I cried out."It's fine. Come to Paris with me. I'll take care of ev

A lot of things changed recently. The work pressure increased than I thought, I had to maintain my mental fitness along with my physical fitness too. The contract went good irrespective of Mr. brown's pervetness. But still something seems off with that guy, he doesn't look like someone who leaves Evelyn easily, but why the fuck is he obsessed with her that much?. Damn, I agree she's beautiful and.... yeah, hot too but that doesn't mean he can act the way he does. My blood boils every time I see him near her. I was trying my best to get another contract but things doesn't seem to work out. Even though we made profit, the company's position in the market is still not up to my expectations. I didn't expectthe company to be on 1st place I would be greedy to think that, but still the position isn't that good at present. Even after all these, I found two things interesting and they are the things that made me happy. First, Evelyn's change of behavior. She's been acting strange lately, I m

"I know, I know. But my dad don't know about us yet." I said with a small tone as I looked at him. "So?" He asked with a confused tone. "So.... He might get doubt and I don't want that. I'm happy that you dropped me. Understood?" I asked as I cupped his cheeks. "Hmm." He said like a kid and looked down. "Good. I'll be going then. Bye." I said as I left his cheeks. "What that's it?" He asked with a surprised tone. "Yeah. What else do you want?" I asked as I shrugged my shoulders. I know what he's refering to and I can't stop but tease him. Seeing him act like a kid, sulk like a kid is a rare thing to do and I don't want to miss this opportunity. "Nothing. Good night." He said with a dull tone. I smiled with his sulking. God, save me before I die with his sweetness. I leaned forward before calling him. "Ralph." I called. He looked with a sulking face. I tilted my head to the right a bit and gave a quick kiss on his

"S-so, you haven't moved on?" I asked with a slightest hope."You're still asking?. Why do you think I joined the company?." He asked with an unbelivable tone."Then why did you act cold towards me?" I asked as the pain regained it's strength and the past events showed up."What else was I supposed to do?. Should, I say, Hello, Mr. Harrison, I joined the company as your secretary just to win your heart and make you fall in love?. Even it sounds ridiculous." He said with an angry tone."Then why did you do that?." I asked as a tear rolled down from one of my eye. I couldn't hold bakc anymore, the fact that he's moved on all along was eating me up and the fact that I'll loose him ws piercing my heart every second. But even after knowing both the facts are lies, I couldn't hold myself anymore. I want to run into his arms. I miss the warmth he's giving. I hate him for making me suffer."Why?. Don't you know it hurts me to see you acting cold and like w

Martin's POV: I said my goodbye to the Harrison couple and walked towards my cabin. I saw Camellia outside but with a anger funsed in her face. What's gotten into her early in the morning?. "Good morning. Ms. Camellia." I said with a smile but she huffed in reply and left. Weird woman. I opened my door and found a familiar personality with his back towards me. I checked again thinking I went inside someone else's cabing but I was in my cabin, then whose is this person?. "Hello. Who are you?" I asked as I stepped into the cabin. He turned around..... my body flinched and eyes widened in shock when I saw that person. "Hello, Mr. Harrison." He said with a smile. "R-Ralph???" I gasped softly. My body started trembling and I couldn't hold myself anymore. I wanted to run into his arms..... I took a step forward but I stopped. "W-what..... what are you doing here?" I asked clenching my fist and trying hard to control myself. "My
