ALMYRA'S POVI sat down on the bed still, and Malum comforted me the more I cried."You should stop crying now," Malum voice echoed in the room as is dripped in warmth."Yeah of course, I mean it's fine now." I sniffed as I cleaned the tears with the handkerchief in which Malum passed to me.Malum stood up from where he was and walked towards the fridge. He brought out a bottle of milk out from the fridge along with two cups."You would need alot of strength if you are going to explain what happened," Malum chuckled as he set his gaze at me."You never cease to amaze me," my voice was husked with emotion."What are friends for girl?" Malum teased, his voice dripped whit a hint of sarcasm."You really wanna know?" I asked as I furrowed my eyebrow."Umm…."You are already staying to long I'm answering," I snapped. "Scared?""Nevermind, umm, I don't wanna know." His lips curled into a smile."Fuck you!" I cursed.I and Malum has always been best of friends since we were little. People wo
ALMYRA'S POV.I walked into the company with a red suit along with a red high heel, it was my first time of wearing one of its kind.My shoes made noise as I walked, causing everyone to look at me, the source of the noise. Not like I care.Since the absence of Xavier, it looked like life has taking such a devastating turn. But I just had to pretend like everything is alright, and I guess I'm pretty good at it.I barged into my office, and made for the chair.Well, well, well. I gave a sigh of relief.Not too long after, I heard a knock on my door."Come in," I said as I dropped the cup of coffee in my hand.The door was opened and it was Xavier's secretary. She was the busy type, and I see why Xavier left his company in her hands for the time being."Good morning." She said as she held se files across her chest."Good morning," I replied as the clicking sound of mouse echoed."About the project," she stated still standing."You can have your seat." I gestured to a seat at my front for
ALMYRA POV.I walked slowly as I observed people's face unknowingly to them. Xavier could be anywhere in this billionaires gathering since he was one. Or was it his secretary he sent here again.I walked towards Rachel slowly who was still admiring the whole place slowly. "Hey, Rachel." I said to her as she looked at me in surprise."Yeah…Yeah." She stammered as she was shocked seeing that I called her out of the blue."Who are you here for?" I asked as my voice was coated in confusion."Xavier, I'm here for Xavier." She said as she drank part of the drink in her hand."Oh, I see." I said, my voice barely above a whisper.I walked slowly, before my gaze met that of Hilda Farell.“Shit.” I mouthed as I saw her look at me.She walked slowly towards me as she dropped the glass cup in which was in her hand.“Well well.” Hilda Farell clapped her hands loudly causing some of the people there to look at the both of us.We smiled as they looked at the both of us, no one would want to cause
Almyra's POV As Hilda Farell walked to the stage to give her speech she called Kitara to the stage. “Standing before you all today is myself and my PA,” she scanned through the crowd. “Her name is Kitara Anderson, and she has joined me in achieving part of my goals.” Hilda lips spreaded into a smile. Kitara on the other hand gripped her gown at the end. I guess the clingy bitch also got nervous also. “I guess what you said is true,” Rachel gaze was set at Hilda and Kitara. “She sure seem cool.” “Yeah sure, she is.” I replied Rachel who never looked away from the stage. I had started to know why Xavier left his company in her hands while he his away. “I would like to give her three minutes to say what she wants to.” Hilda said with her voice dripping with warmth as she gave the microphone. Just how evil was this fellow who is my mother-in-law. I wouldn't be sad if her see obituary. “I want to thank you all for giving me this special moment, especially to Mrs Farell.” Kitara
Almyra's POVIn recent days I kept bagging deals with companies since Quantum Spheres partnered with Alfred's company.Some seemed to favor us, in which we accepted and those that did not, we declined.Even with that, there was not a day that goes by that I did not think of Xavier. I kept wondering what had become of him as he seemed to have disappeared off the face of the Earth. Today makes it four months exactly since I last saw him and it was on the day I told him there was no good for the both of us.It was the day I saw his captivating smile, his commanding of attention with ease, but after I told him there was no hope for us, it was like he had vanished into thin air. No more appearance at high profile events, no more social media updates, no more whispers about his latest conquests.I missed Xavier, despite myself. I missed the way he made me play hard to get, the way he set his gaze at me that seemed like he could see right through me. But the scars he left on me were even pa
Almyra's POV,I looked at my brothers in awe as the woman left the store. Their eyes, filled with pain. I walked towards them and they looked at me in shock, they were ashamed for a reason but it was not just clear to me, what could be behind it? I asked myself inwardly.Kaleb broke the silence. “Oh, Almyra you are here, I'm only asking since you don't come her often.” I looked at him with a smile plastered on my face. “Yeah, I had to get somethings.” I looked at three of them one after the other as Keith ran his hands through his hair and Keiran on the other hand avoided making a eye contact with me.“I think I need to use the toilet.” Keith placed his hands on his stomach walking out of our midst.What actually happened between them and the lady in which I saw.Kaleb two paces forward as he cleared his throat. “I also think I need to use the bathroom.” The three of them looked at one another and their lips spreaded into a fake smile.“What happened between you and that lady who w
Almyra's POVI ate in a rush as I made squelching sounds in the car while eating. The both of them looked at me in disgust as they scoffed almost every minute that went by.“Would you stop?” Kaleb looked at from the magazine with his face twisting in anger.“You all should take that as a music to your ears.” I snapped back at him and a hiss followed as I took a sip of the milkshake and sent it down with a loud gulp.I looked at all of them with a furrowed eyebrow tilting my head to their angle almost every minute.While I was with them I guess I did not think about Xavier for a while but I knew that I can't just evade that thought.Who knows what condition Xavier might be in, and who even knows where he his. Hilda Farell and Kitara Anderson are not even helping the situation in a way or two, it was like they're just programmed to make life a living hell for me. I always got back at them nevertheless.On the day I rejected Xavier and told him that there is no hope for the both of us I
Almyra's POV,I picked up my phone as it chimed, it was the alarm today was should I say the first day I woke up before the alarm woke me up. It was three minutes past six already.I stood up from the bed with a loud yawn as I made for the bathroom, I looked at my pale skin through the reflection of the mirror.“Aurora Joules.” I said audibly as I glanced through my phone. It's been long since I heard from Rachel, she is the busy type though.She could be of help in revealing who Aurora is in a few days. Since she was the type to put all of her effort into things. I guess Xavier employed the secretary of the year.My phone ringed loud, loud enough to drift me away from my thought as I packed my hair before checking who it was. It was Malum.“Calling me at this hour?” I had a concern look on my face as I picked it up.“Yeah, good morning Mal.” I placed a strand of my hair behind my ear, I guessed I missed it while packing the others.“It's been a while.” Malum hushed over the phone.“Y
