When I arrived at the highest floor, where the president’s office is located, I started to hear my heart beat like a drum. I was nervous as hell. More so that Sir. Remy couldn’t accompany me because the president especially requested to see me alone.

What does he want from me?

Is he going to fire me?

Seeing how angry he looked earlier in the morning, I wouldn’t be surprised if that was the case.

The metal doors finally open.

Since the elevator was specifically for the president, the first thing I saw in the room was his back facing the huge glass window that looked over the city. The

office of the president was breathtakingly beautiful. It had these black interiors and low-dimmed light that sparked a mysterious vibe around the room. Yet because of my nervousness, I couldn’t help but get an eerie vibe from it.

I strode towards his desk like a rabbit in fear.

"Sir, you called for me?"

At the sound of my voice, he glances over to see me. As usual, he was this godly human being who had pe

    Once I opened my eyes to start a new day, my smile quickly turned upside down as I realized how awful the rest of my day would be. As my mom wished, I agreed to take her to Gilbert’s anniversary party on her birthday, but that doesn’t mean I’d have to pretend to like it.I absolutely detest it. I mean, who celebrates their birthday at their ex-partner’s anniversary party? Only my mom would!I buried my head on the pillow and started to scream endlessly. The torture of even just thinking about it made me barf. To think I have to see those people on my mom’s special day! I didn’t get a day off just to be pissed off!Someone knocked on the door, so I paused my outrage."Baby? You awake?" My mom’s voice travels through the door."I wish I'm not!"She opens the door, "Don’t talk like that. Are you wishing me bad luck on my birthday?""Of course not!" I got up and hastily said, "You know why I'm upset in the first place, why are you twisting it like that, geez."She chuckled before heading

    Everything went downhill after that.Abby’s rage blew out of proportion that she couldn’t care less about the event anymore. She walked up to her step-mom and violently pulled her hair down to make her kneel, she doesn’t care anymore what happens to her, but the thought that her mom was humiliated was enough for her to finally stand up against Sarah after so many years.Everyone gasps at the sight.Abby says, through gritted teeth “How dare you slap my mom? If you think you could bully us by inviting us here, you’re just digging your own grave!”Sarah couldn’t believe what she was seeing.For the first time, Abby, who she had known to be powerless and meek was suddenly yanking her hair down to her knees. The emotions that burned in Abby’s eyes was enough to render Sarah speechless, all that all she could do was cry for help. “Gilbert! Help me! She’s trying to kill me!”Abby pulled her hair tighter, “Go ahead, scream louder!”It was all too much while Abby’s mother watch at the side. S

    *ABBY’s POV*As we walked by the station. Rain splattered so hard around us that it drew my gaze to the quiet streets in front of me. If we had been a minute late, then we’d be drenched for sure.I frowned. I'm sure tomorrow will be filled with more problems for me.As I was lost in my thoughts, Mom gave me a hug all of a sudden.Startled, I patted her back. "Mom? What’s wrong? Does it still hurt?""I'm sorry that you had to go through that.""Don’t be sorry, it’s not our fault, mom. They had it coming." Sarah and Gilbert should be thankful that I fought the urge to stab them with a fork. I rolled my eyes to myself.Mom pulls away from me with a worried expression, "Honey, they are powerful people, you know what they’re capable of.""It’s fine, mom. I can handle it. Haven’t I always been doing so?" "I know you can handle it." She sobs, "You grew up well, but I'm still worried. Everyone has their own breaking point.

    No one could possibly imagine how much I hate Raphael right now.After the humiliation we had suffered in the hands of my evil stepmother, I couldn’t care less about any gossip or news that may contain the scenes that had transpired earlier that night. All I could think about was how to spend the rest of the night with my mom, and if possible, make her happy, even if it takes me the last minute of the night.As soon as Raphael left, I immediately threw the pink box into the trash bin behind our house. Then I grabbed my homemade cake and slowly made my way to my mom’s bedroom.She had just finished showering, so when she saw me approach her with the biggest smile on my face. Candles lit, the dimmed lights somehow helped in making the cake stand out.She laughs in tears. "Oh honey, you didn’t have to."I smiled, "Happy Birthday, Mom. Thank you for being the best mom I could have in this world. Despite what happened today, I still want you to know how much I love you, and I’d do anything

    “How are you planning to do that?”I leaned back to my chair and stared outside the window. A huge billboard for Mary Brooks endorsing a skincare brand stood out among the buildings. And I just had a brilliant idea in mind.“Call every media and tell them to block all news regarding what happened last night. I'll be playing hero to save the damsel in distress.”“For Abby, sir?”“Who else?”“I know I shouldn’t be asking this sir, but I thought you don’t think highly of her?”“I don’t.” “Then why?”Truthfully, there’s something about her that makes her unforgettable. I'm not sure if it’s her rude behavior as my employee or her playful personality as ‘stacy’. She’s also smart that it makes it even more fun to play this game with her. Whatever it is, I know I can’t possibly let an amusing person slip through my hands.“She’s an odd woman. I’ve never seen such a brave woman who can curse at me so openly.

    “Come on Abby! Just do this for me! It’s my birthday are you really going to be such a killjoy on my day?” Emily pouts, showing her googly eyes in front of me. “Pretty please?”“You’re already drunk, Emily. God, why are you so weak in alcohol?”We’re currently inside a famous bar in the city. Since she pleaded to take me with her to celebrate her birthday, how could I say no?I let out a sigh in disbelief.It’s only been a few drinks yet I still can’t seem to believe how my best friend always gets drunk so fast. It’s not that I didn’t want to do her dare, but my best friend of 20 years is basically trying to dare me toseduce an impossible man at the bar table right in front of us. Multiple women already tried to flirt with the dude but all of them ended up getting humiliated and ended up running for their lives in tears. We didn’t know the guy but he looked powerful enough to send a few ladies out of the bar with just a raise of a hand.I sighed, why am I still surprised at this poin

    I gasped in horror.I knew he heard me spot on because he suddenly turned his head as soon I finished my sentence. And of course, I had the nerve to look away at the same time he glanced at me. I felt so embarrassed that I didn’t even notice that the bartender had already served my drink and I accidentally spilled it when I lifted my elbow at the counter to cover my face in shame.Why is this happening?!I quickly stood up to wipe myself as I felt the cold water run through my thigh. I didn’t dare to look at him and just hurriedly faced my back on him to lessen the embarrassment that I felt now. While I was wiping myself, to my surprise, he suddenly spoke.“Are you trying to make me laugh?”I turned to him in confusion. I held out the gasp when I saw how handsome he was again and just gulped down the overwhelming pressure of seeing such a guy in front of me. He already looked drunk as his cheeks were flushed red like Emily’s and the fact that he was grinning at a stranger like me, say

    "So that’s why you’ve been acting weird! So you do know him-Oh My God you even slept-" I placed both of my hands over her loud mouth."Shh!! Are you planning to expose me right after I just told you?"She looks at me up and down in disbelief. I kind of expected this reaction, so I was also quite prepared to stop her from exploding her emotions in the public eye. I couldn’t blame her; this situation was really not something that you’d expect from reality.It sounds absurd to even say I knew Raphael.She calmly removes my hand with her eyes wide open, "Bitch, do you know what this means?""I'll get... fired?""No! You're going to be Mrs. Hughes!"I slapped my forehead in frustration. My best friend had really watched too many soap operas that it shows. I shook my head towards her response and took her car key out of her pocket. I just gave up at that point, and reached for my things at the back of her car. But she didn’t stop with her ramblings."You got his seed right? If that baby com

    Keith was kind enough to show me around the floor and politely introduced me to some of our coworkers. Most of them were females, and it was apparent that they didn’t like me because of what happened in the lobby earlier. Some tried to ask me about how the new president knew me, but all I could give them was empty answers. I don’t even dare to say that I knew him since that would just make things difficult for me.I let out a heavy sigh.Keith must have noticed my dismay as we suddenly stopped midway down the hallway. He pats my shoulder, "Don’t mind them! Everyone’s just curious about your relationship with the new president. And if you don’t mind me asking, may I ask what is... your relationship with the newpresident?""You’re also curious?""Who wouldn’t be?" He clicks his tongue in excitement. "The scene in the lobby was filled with tension! Everyone wondered why the head of the Hughes group knew a new face like you! especially why you were rejecting the new president’s orders wi
