2024-10-29 19:42:56I woke up with a grunt. My head's spinning. I started massaging my forehead.
"I shouldn't have got drunk that much," I said. It feels like my head's going to explode."Take these pills, they help with the hangover." I heard a tone from aside. I turned my face towards the side and found....."Ralph?" I said with a confused tone. What is he doing here?. Why is he in my room? or was I in his room."Good morning." He said and kept the tablets and water aside."M-morning," I replied still with confusion.He walked to the restroom and that's when I realized that he wasn't wearing anything.....I mean, he has his pants on but his shirt.....his top was naked.
'Why is he naked.......?'I thought while rubbing my forehead and when I looked down.......'Why am I naked too?' I thought loud while covering my mouth...I mean I have my boxers on but still..... I looked around and it wasn't my room.<Related chapters

I woke up at my normal time, when I looked around, I saw Celine still sleeping. It's unusual for her. I slowly went beside her and shook her up."Wake up. Celine..." I said while shaking her."Hmmm....." She hummed in her sleep."Wake up...." I shook her hand and she woke sat back on her seat with a grunt."Don't shout. My head's hurting." She said while holding her head with both of her hands."I'll bring a hangover pill. Fresh up by then." I said while getting off the bed."Hmm...." She hummed and gave a small nod.I went downstairs and saw Adam in the hallway. He was ready and was on his way to the gym. The incidents of last night flashed, the moment we almost kissed popped up. Out of all the things that happened why does this one pop up. I was about to pass by him but his words stopped him."Hey....." He called. I stopped my tracks and turned towards him."Yeah,"

I took the items from the list and chose some others. I was walking towards the car when a thought struck my mind. Celine won't come back for a long time. It was just like me leaving for Australia.Evelyn might be an arrogant one but Celine....she's a kind girl. She's the main reason I and that stupid girl hadn't gotten into fistfights. She deserves a proper send-off, not just a simple part.After accepting what I thought. I drove my car to the mall and walked inside. I stopped in front of a jewelry store and started looking for something she might like. I don't know what she likes.I guess it's good to choose according to my choice. With that thought, I started looking at the stuff and that's when my eyes landed on the jewelry set. It looks good and suits her if I'm not wrong. I chose to take this."Excuse me," I called one of the salespeople. I saw a girl.....rather a lady coming towards me."Can you pack this?" I asked while showing the jewe

The next morning, I woke up at my normal time. I got fresh up changed into my gym outfit and went downstairs. I grabbed the water bottle from the refrigerator and walked out of the kitchen and found Ralph coming towards me, with a bare chest and a small towel around his neck. What happened?."Good morning, Adam." He greeted with his usual smile."Morning." I greeted him back with an awkward smile. My thoughts weren't stopping from thinking what might have happened last night."Can I borrow your clothes?" He asked to my surprise."Sorry?" I asked when my mind didn't register what he said."Your clothes. Can I borrow them?" He asked again."Y-yeah sure. I'll bring them in a second." I said and Ralph replied with a smile.I went back to my room and grabbed jeans a t-shirt and a jacket and came downstairs. I gave them to Ralph with a smile but my mind was thinking of the reasons. I'm sure Martin isn't s

We started packing the other things and after 30 minutes we completed them."Finally," I exclaimed."Yeah. I didn't know that I brought these many clothes." Celine chuckled and sat beside me."Idiot," I replied in annoyance. She smiled and threw her weight on me."You're heavy, Li," I said and tried to adjust my posture so she can be comfortable."Even though you won't throw me." She said while making herself comfortable. She laid her head on my shoulder and held my arm with her hands."You would miss me for sure," I said while caressing her hair."I never said I wouldn't." She replied and closed her eyes."You are coming back after the contract ends right?" I asked after some time of silence. But the silence continued."Li, babe you are coming back right?" I asked while looking at her but she buried her face in my shoulder. I held her face and made her look at me. He

The next day, I did my morning routine and the maid made breakfast."Thank you," I said as she served the breakfast plate on the dining table in front of me. She smiled and left the place.Later on, the sleeping beauty woke up from her sleep and came downstairs with a moody look on her face.'Mood off first thing in the morning. Great.' I thought by seeing her face.She sat in front of me and her face was still pissed. The maid served her the breakfast but she didn't reply and started eating with a pissed look. She looked at me and shifted her gaze towards the food plate immediately. I ignored it and completed my breakfast. I was having my coffee when she spoke."Umm...Adam." She called."Yeah?" I replied in a normal tone while looking at her."I'm free today. So, I'm thinking of going to my parents' house." Wait is she asking my permission for real?.She must have gone crazing for asking my

Marti took a long breath and clicked his tongue before answering."Yes, accidentally." He added."Fine. Go on." I said with a hand gesture and leaned back on the bench."So. I saw him accidentally. I thought of meeting him and asking him about yesterday night. So, I parked the car at the park and went inside to meet him." He added.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Flashback:"Hey." I greeted Ralph and he looked at me in response."Oh, Hai Martin. What are you doing here?" He asked with a surprised tone."I happened to pass by and saw you here...alone. So, I thought of meeting you." I replied with a smile and sat beside him. Ralph nodded his head and smiled a little."So, what are you doing here all alone like a lost sparrow?" I asked with a joyful tone to cheer him up but this guy didn't even change his expression

"What if you haven't?" I asked back."How can you say that I haven't?." He whined."And how can you say that I have?" I asked and he rolled his eyes."Stop thinking Martin. We know nothing and it's not worth a headache. Moreover, if Ralph has known then he would have told about it already." I said trying to encourage him."What if he's been hiding about it?." Does this person ever stops overthinking?."What will he gain from it?. He's not that type of guy Martin." I said while keeping my hand on his shoulder."Are you sure about it?" He asked."I'm pretty sure. Don't think about it." I replied with a small head nod and smiled in reply.We stayed in the park for some time."Let's get back. It's getting dark." I said while standing up."What about Evelyn?. When will she come back?" He asked while standing up."I'm planning on picking her on my way," I

The next morning, my daily schedule got messed up. I woke up when I felt like waking up. I turned towards the other side of the bed in a habit to call Celine and it felt heart-wrecking when I found it empty."Yeah. She's not here." I said in a quiet tone.And...that sentence was enough for my mood to be off. I miss her....already and....so much. I got fresh up with that mood off look and went downstairs. I act obedient and sulky when I'm mood off and I don't mind if it's my parents or my enemy.I saw Adam having his breakfast and I'm seriously not in the mood to get into an argument with him. So, I sat on the chair opposite him silently. The maid served the breakfast and I started eating it.I can't stay in the place I hate when I'm completely mood off. I need to go to the place where people pamper me. So, I thought of going back to the Lawrenson mansion. But.....I should ask him first.I looked at him to speak but shifted my gaze immed

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
