~Ophelia's POV~

I walked into the company with some files in my hand. I muttered some greetings to the receptionist. I went through the elevator and came out of the office. I greeted Claire and went into the office, only to see that Demetrius was already there.

"So much for a personal secretary." He said without looking up and I almost rolled my eyes. He still had that glass he wears on his face. I dropped the files and placed them before him.

"These are the files you told me to sort out." I said and he went through it. He nodded his head in agreement before focusing back on what he was doing.

We went on for hours working on several files. Gosh, there was sometimes that I wished that I did not take up this job but what can I do when I have such a workaholic as a boss?

He seemed to have noticed that I was getting tired. He packed the files and picked the telephone.

"Get me some orange juice and snacks." He said and dropped the telephone. He looked at me.

And I began to wonder what sudd

    ~Ophelia's POV~My eyebrows scrunched together as I heard what he said. Me? A date?What's happening?He seemed to realize what he said. "Ehmm... No, not a date. I mean will you be available this weekend? Maureen said she would love to spend some time with you." He said with a gulp. Oh, so it was his sister.But why did my heart skip a beat when he said that?"Okay, tell her I will come over." I said with a small smile. He nodded his head and I walked into the building, still reminiscing about what he asked about earlier on.Gosh, he almost gave me a heart attack. I walked up the stairs and got to the door of my apartment. I pushed it open and walked in.I saw Kelly on her laptop, typing away. She did not even acknowledge me. Well, things have not been going well between us and I think I better get her to talk to me."Hi, Kelly." I greeted but she ignored me. I sucked in a deep breath and walked towards her. No, not her. I picked the laptop up from her sight and she looked at me wit

    ~Demetrius' POV~I stared at the file before me as I tried to understand what it meant. It was already in the night and I ought to be sleeping but this file before me held great importance to me and my business world.I need to... A beep from my phone's notification interrupted my thoughts. I groaned and picked it up. I looked at it.It was a Facebook notification. I thought I asked Steven to turn this off the last time. I don't have time for Facebook. When last did I even make a post?I looked at it and clicked on it. I might as well get my mind off work.Okay, someone just liked my post.Huh... I clicked on the name and it took me to... I smiled as I saw the name. Stalker. She stalks me this much to the extent of making it known?I smirked and clicked on her profile picture. She was smiling in her profile picture and she stood with two women. One was older who looked like her mother and the other... I don't know.I went through her posts and I saw that fvcker that had tried to mole

    ~Unknown's POV~ My phone rang with vibration that I had to stop the file I was working on. Gosh, it is this man. "Hello, I said I will pay you back. Just give me some time." I said to the man who would not stop threatening me over the phone. "I give you just few months' or else. I will have you and your generation killed." He said and before I could reply, he already disconnected the call. I hissed out and tugged at my tie. Gosh, I have been working non stop to pay back my debts but instead I am falling into more. My phone vibrated and I picked it without looking at the caller. "I said I will pay you your money. Stop threatening me. My business is at the brink of falling. Threatening me won't pay back your money!!!" I yelled furiously and wiped the beads of sweats that rolled down my forehead. "Honey," Her voice came through and my body calm down a bit. "Rose, I am so sorry. I did not mean to yell at you on the phone. I was just... Frustrated with the way the people I was ow

    ~Ophelia's POV~I stood shaking as the cops carried his body away from the place."Miss, you are needed to make a statement at the station." The man said and I looked at him and nodded my head a little bit hesitantly.Few minutes later I was in the station, writing down my statement. "Okay, miss. We will call you if we need you for any information." The officer said and I nodded my head.I exited the station and signaled to a cab which parked in front of me. I looked at the cab carefully now that I know that I am not safe.I sat in the passage seat and the driver asked where I was going to. I told him the address and wrapped my hand around myself.What happened just kept replaying in my head... He was killed. In front of me. And... I could not do anything about it.The cab stopped and I stepped out. I scanned his QR code and paid him before I walked into the building. This time I looked around even more carefully.I got to the apartment and just pushed the door open. I went in and sl

    ~Ophelia's POV~Demetrius dropped me off after work as usual but not after making sure his bodyguards checked my surroundings."It is safe, sir." The body guards said and he looked at me."Should I send a car over or do you still know the way?" He asked and I contemplated for some seconds."Send a car over." I said and he nodded his head. He got into the car and drove off.I went into the building and walked straight to my apartment. Kelly was home and I could be at peace."Welcome." She said which surprised me. my eyebrows creased in confusion and stared at her.She rolled her eyes and got off the bed."I see that you are in a good mood tonight. Tell me I really want to know about your relationship with your boss." She said and I scoffed."There is nothing going on between him and I. Just the boss to the Secretary relationship. Nothing at all." I said with a shrug and I scoffed."You are lying to me, huh?" She asked and I turned towards her."Shouldn't I be the one to ask you that qu

    ~Ophelia's POV~The car drove into the Demetrius' mansion parking lounge and I stepped out of the car.I walked towards the entrance of the house and pushed the door. What is the need to knock when they know I was coming anyways?I entered and saw no one was in the large living room, then suddenly I heard giggling and chuckling as steps became louder. Demetrius was carrying Maureen and he seemed to be saying something into her ears and she was giggling.They soon saw me standing there and I felt left out."Oh, Ophelia, you are here." Maureen said as she impatiently got down from Demetrius hand and ran over to me. I prepared to hug and she pulled me in tightly."How are you?" I asked her."I am fine and you?" She asked."I'm good." I replied."I guess you must be wondering why I asked my brother to tell you to come visit me. Well, it is because I like having someone who is just as old as Dimitri to be my friend. Ever since Emery stopped visiting or calling me, I have been so lonely." S

    *Two days Later*~Ophelia's POV~We stood at the airport with our luggage close to us. I wonder why Demetrius is not letting us use his private jet rather we are using a commercial aeroplane. The plane was taking off in a few minutes and Demetrius was busy typing away on his phone.I tapped my foot continuously on the floor and he faced me with an arched eyebrow. "What is wrong?" He asked."When are we going to the plane?" I asked and he looked at me like I had grown two heads."My private jet is to arrive, dummy." He replied and looked back at his phone. Oh, we are even using his private jet. That is nice.I don't think I can stand being in the aeroplane.His phone rang and he picked it."Is it ready?" He asked and then he nodded his head."Let us move." He said and I dragged our luggage along with me.We got to his white private jet and got in. We took a seat respectively and I looked outside. I used my seat belt...**As we got down from the jet, a black limousine was already awai

    ~Ophelia's POV~We were soon done with our breakfast and we headed towards the car. The driver pushed the door open for us and we stepped in. I looked outside through the window, watching people as they moved around. Goosebumps prickled my skin and my eyebrows scrunched up together. Why do I feel like someone is watching me? Someone was watching me.I looked outside through the window again and did not see anyone unusual. "Are you okay?" Demetrius asked and I faced him with worry etched on my face."I feel like I am being followed," I said as he sighed before holding me by my hands."You don't need to be scared. I am here with you." He said and picked up his phone. He dialed some numbers and a voice came through."Eliminate all threats." He said firmly and disconnected the call. My mouth hung open at the voice he used."Are you ready?" The driver asked and I nodded my head. I guess he could see me through the mirror. He ignited the car's engine and zoomed off. I was beginning to rel

    ~Ophelia's POV~My best friend, laid before me, with blood spilling from her lips and her eyes opened but lifeless. How the hell did this happen?How could I have forgotten that I was being followed? A waiter had come to meet Demetrius where I was standing and he had whispered in his ear. It was the look of shock that was his face that caught my attention and how the waiter was trembling. I knew something bad if not worse must have happened. I had asked him what was wrong only for him to walk outside and I followed him then I came in contact with this horrific view of the corpse of my best friend. How did it happen?Why...

    I looked up at Demetrius. "Someone is here?" Kelly asked."Come in." Loretta said and the door was pushed open. My mother stepped in, she looked around the place and then her eyes landed on me. My brows creases together."Mother..." She raised her hands to me."You..." She trailed off as she moved closed to us."So you now stay with a man? Or are you here for a celebration? Wait, you are the one celebrating?" She asked and I could feel the hurt in her voice."Mother...." I said as I moved closer to her."Stay away from me." She said, using her hand to make a distance between us."Ophelia." Demetrius called out. I turned to him."This is my mother." I said and his face brightened up."Didn't know you had one. Good day ma." He greeted with a polite smile."You are... That stupid boss of hers?" She asked and I gulped softly.Demetrius turned to look at me with an amused smile then back at her.

    Weeks later....~Ophelia's POV~Gosh, no one told me morning sickness could be this bad. But–Water splashed on my face and I yelped out."What the heck? Demetrius?!" I yelled out in shock. Water dripped down from my hair to my night gown."Happy Birthday!" Kelly and Demetrius squealed and I could not help but glare at them."I know you wanted to surprise me but do you have to wet me with water like this?!" I asked them and they scoffed. The both of them, Ha!"Happy Birthday to you, Ophelia." Loretta came in with a gift in her hand. Gentle lady manner.I looked around. "Where is Maureen?" I asked.That little devil."She...." Demetrius scratched the back of his neck."How about you dress quickly and come downstairs?" He asked instead and I knew that there was something going on. I stared at him with interest and he shrugged with a smile on his lips. I snorted and climbed down the bed.They both exited the room for me and I picked out the clothes I will be wearing.

    PART FIVE~Demetruis' POV~She is carrying my child? My own freaking child? My child. And she left me. What if something happened to her? Or to the kid?I pulled the car over and stepped out. I walked towards the entrance of Emery's house. Pushing the door open, not caring to knock, I walked inside.I saw her, the devil herself, sitting there with a smoke in her hands and watching Netflix. Spoilt brat."You came back?" She asked as she faced me with a amused look."No, I did not. And will never." I bit out as I clenched my fist from going straight for her plastic chin. Instead I moved closer to her, I leaned over, almost choking on the awful cigarette smell. This brand was really really hard, I wonder how is she yet to run mad. Even I must not take these. Well, what do you expect from someone like Emery?"I know what you did." I whispered and I noticed her throat burp and she choked on the smoke.Good.She started coughing out and reached for the drink.

    PART FOUR~Ophelia's POV~Loretta's lips widened into a grin as she took note of me. From her huge grin I knew her heart leaped with joy. Which was weird for me. I mean why would she be so happy to meet me? I am just an ordinary secretary to her son."Ophelia." She called out with every ounce of your joy she could show. My lips turned into a small smile and I moved forward. "Ma'am." I greeted."Oh my goodness, you are real." She said as she touched her chest. She pulled me into an instant hug and squeezed me tight. Okay, this treatment I am receiving is weird for me today."You don't know how much I missed you." Maureen said and I noticed she was crying.She was crying? For me?I am really heartless.I crouched down to her level and cupped her face in my palms. "I am so sorry, Maureen. I promise you I won't leave again." I said and she blinked her eyes."You won't?" She asked and I nodded my head. "I won't." I stood up."Okay then. I have so many things to show you." She said and was

"Never knew you were such a loser!" He snapped at me suddenly and I felt the small world I was trying to build crumble down before me at the vocals of his voice."I..." The words could not even form at all. What was he doing here? How did he get here? Why was he here?He stared at me with scrutiny, walked towards me with calculating steps. "So you think you can just leave as you want after what happened?" He asked, his eyes searching for a particular thing I know nothing of. This was dangerous. It was dangerous. Why can't he just let me go?I need to speak up, Clearing my throat, I patted my thigh with my hands. "Nice meeting you again." I said and he uttered a scoff before settling down to sit. I followed his every action. His muscles strained in the pair of jeans he wore. He had his eyes fixat

    PART TWOI woke up as early as I could for this mysterious meeting with this person. I was eager to see what he had in store for me but I should also be careful because it could be the person that was stalking Ophelia at that time. But it goes both ways and I hope it is worth the risk I was taking."Demetrius, where are you going so early?" My mother asked as she sipped her tea. That was one thing she was used to. Waking up early and drinking tea as she watches the sun rise."No where. Just have to make a quick visit to someone." I said and she turned to me fully with a shocked expression."Really? Never knew you to make meetings as early as this." She said with her brows raised and I did not want to tell her about it."Mother, it is nothing to worry about. I will be quick." I said and hurried towards the dining table. I picked an apple and bit into it."Goodbye mum." I said and walked out. It was still a little bit dark so I just drove my car. Getting to the place took some minutes,

    PART ONE~Ophelia's POV~Kelly moved away from me and went towards the door. I just stood there, expecting to see who it was that came here. Something in me was hoping that it would be HIM. Opening it, she moved back and Ryan peeped in with a cocky smile."Sorry but you left your purse." He said as he handed it over to me. I stared at him with scrutiny. He could have just called me back. Right?He looked at Kelly and I noticed her move uncomfortably on her feet. "Okay, you can leave now. Thank you anyway for the ride. I really appreciate." I said again with a feigned smile that I was not even sure it was there and he nodded his head at me before moving back. Kelly slammed the door shut and glared at me before going to sit down. Just as I was about to utter a word, a knock came again and I groaned out loud. What does he want?I walked towards the door with the aim to speak my mind to him but then I pushed the door open, "I am quite thirsty. I was thinking if you would welcome me insid
