“You're not going to open up?” She yelled.”Her heels tapped on the floor as she glared at him in anger. Noah was doing it on purpose. His aim was to piss her off. “Noah, I'm literally standing outside. Open this door.”“Can't you see I'm busy?”She laughed in disbelief. “And can't you see I'm waiting here?”“I didn't ask you to come, did I? We had no appointment. Meet with my secretary and schedule an appointment with me if you so much want to see me. I'm busy right now.”She laughed again. This man. He must think that she came here to chit-chat or smile with him. There is no way on earth that she is going to turn back and leave without getting what she wants. She's not leaving here until she settles scores. “No, you're not. I can see that. You were busy scrolling on your phone before I came.”He didn't reply to her. Taking things into her hands, Eve walked to the other side of the glass office so she could stand somehow close to the chair where he was sitting. She picked up both
“Eve? Eve, wait, what happened? Why are you angry?”“Let's just get the fuck out of here, Ella. Everything is fucked up.”“Oh my God.” Ella ran after her, trying to keep up with her pace. They had come here with so much confidence. “I just want to strangle someone right now. Walk fast. I don't want to be in this building for another hour.”Ella held her neck and ran after her boss. What if she tries to vent her anger on her and strangles her? She's not the cause of this. “Ughhhhhh,” Eve yelled as they finally walked out of the building to the parking lot where the driver was already waiting for them. They both got into the back seat of the car. “Tell me, Ella. What exactly should I do? What should I do to him? He pisses me a lot and I can't bear it. Should I just poison him to death and pretend I know nothing about it? Should I sneak into his house and kill him in the middle of the night? Should I burn down this damn building,” she ranted as the car started moving. “Wait! That's
Without bothering to look at the face of the person who offered her a handkerchief, Eve took it and started wiping her tears with it. After she was done wiping her tears off, she took a deep breath before her eyes fell on the design on the handkerchief. What the hell? She only knew of one person who had this design on his handkerchiefs. She wasn't sure any other person had possession of it. To confirm her doubt, she raised her head, and good Lord, she wished she never did. She wished she just dropped the handkerchief and left the cemetery. What the fuck was he doing here. Is he stalking her now?”She stood up after rolling her eyes severally and folded her hands under her chest. “You're done crying?” “Forget about my tears. Tell me, what do you want? Are you stalking me?”She heard him stutter. “I have a company that awaits my attention every now and then, I have businesses all around the world and you think I'll stop so low to stalk you?” “Then what are you doing here, Noah?”“W
Before he could get to his car, she got to him and held his arms. “Wait please.”He turned in surprise. Didn't she just fight with him and leave? “You want something, Eve? Why did you come back?”“Fine, let's get married.” “What?”“That's what you want, right? Let's get married if this is going to stop all of these.”He looked at her in a confused way causing her to roll her eyes in disbelief. She knows that he knew what he was doing and was just playing with her. Fine, this time, she let him win. He won this time. “I don't know what you mean.”“Where is the marriage agreement? I'll sign it. You want that, right? I'll do what you say, just stop all of these.” Noah chuckled. “Now, why are you chucking? I'm being serious. Where is it?”“Didn't you say you weren't interested? What if I'm no longer interested in helping you? How's it going to be?”“Wh…what the hell do you mean? Didn't you want my forgiveness?”“Trust me, I do.” “Then you have to win it. How come you're still stressi
“What the fuck, Eve, what the hell did I just read?” Ella exclaimed as she barged into Eve’s room at her apartment the next morning. Eve yawned and sat down on her bed.“What is it? What's so important that you have to wake me up this early in the morning?”“Do you know what I just read on the internet? Goodness. I don't know why we keep getting into trouble upon trouble. Honestly, I'm tired as fuck.”“Show me already. I'm used to bad news now anyway.”Ella walked to her side and handed her the phone so that she could read what she just read herself. Eve scrolled through the phone reading the news articles and when she was finally done, she sighed. “Why aren't you surprised?”“Why would I?”“Because…because.” Ella gasped and exclaimed. “Don't tell me what they're saying is true. Don't tell me that.”“What can I say? I can't lie to you, Ella. It's true.”“Oh my God. You're getting engaged to him? How? When? When did you both start dating? I'm really trying my best to understand this s
“What's going on?”Their heads snapped to the side. Ella walked to them and stood in between facing Liam. Her eyes bore holes into his soul as if she was planning on eating him. “What do you want? Why are you troubling her?” She asked. Liam rolled his eyes. “I don’t see how that is any of your business. Move aside. I and Eve were having a conversation. You should learn how to keep your nose off people’s business.”“Well, this is my business. Don’t try to bully my boss. I don’t trust you one bit, flathead.”“Flathead?”“Yes. Go away.”“How dare you call me flathead again? Every day I see you, my whole day ends up being ruined. I’m sure the rest of the day would be bad for me.”“What do you mean?”“That you are bad luck. I’m sure that’s why you don’t have a boyfriend. Move aside. “Yaaa,” she lunged at him but before she could lay her hands on him, Eve interrupted and held her backward. Her troublesome friend will not hesitate when it comes to fighting anyone that offends her. Knowin
In a large fancy ballroom with highly prestigious guests, an engagement party was being held. From the look of the hall alone, one could tell that it was not a party of two middle-class people. Everyone could tell that it was a party of two wealthy families coming together. The ballroom was large and screamed luxury. If you don’t look carefully, you will post your way trying to find where the celebrants were as everywhere was filled with people from different parts of the world. The high ceilings with crystal chandeliers, the long tables covered in white linens, the smell of the freshly cut expensive flowers, and the soft music were indicators of what to expect the moment you step foot in the hall. The guests were in their best clothing, some ever ready to outshine their mates and make the headlines. Couples danced along with the music on the dance floor and proved their dancing skills with their partners. The environment was looking fun and it seemed like the guests were excited
“What are you looking at?” Ella brought Laim’s attention back to her as they danced on the dance floor together with the other couples and of course the newly engaged couple. She frowned when she saw that his attention was divided and he was looking elsewhere. His grip tightened on her waist. She was sure that he left a mark there. What made him angry?She held his head and straightened it so that he was looking at her only. She was right in front of him, why would he be looking elsewhere, right?“Hey, you asked for a dance. You never said that I have to look at you all through.”“But you’re dancing with me. You should be staring at me.”“This is why I didn’t want to do this. You’re too demanding.”Her face fell. “What the fuck you’re even looking at?” She whipped her head around to where he was staring before she broke his gaze away. Her eyebrows drew together. Eve? “Don’t tell me you’re jealous because your friend is getting married soon and you might not be seeing her often.”“Wh
