I was confused at the arrival of the girl. Who was she? Why was she here? I know I wasn't in the place to ask this but shouldn't she walk to her house after she meet him? Why did he brought her here? I looked at Liam with questioning gaze. He opened his lips and closed it again. No words were coming out of him. He looked at the car moving his eyes from me. I also looked at the car and the car door opened. Mr. Gold slowly came out of it like a superstar of some movie... Huh... Style.. He then moved to another side of the car and opened the car door, for her... I felt a wave of anger and jealousy hit my heart. The girl looked at me with confused eyes as well. I tried to smile at her but my lips didn't even curve upwards. "Why is she here...?? " I whispered softly at Liam. Before Liam could speak a word another word interrupted. "What is she doing here? " The girl asked loudly to Mr. Gold. I looked at her and our eyes met. I was not happy seeing her here and seems like th
"I.. Was just wondering around.. " I said in a stammering voice. Another person in the same uniform came to him and petted his shoulder as he asked "What is going on here? " The guard from previous pointed at me "She was wondering at the garden alone" he explained. "Why myam? I mean at least you could've asked someone to come with you if you really wasnted to explore around." he looked around the garden and added "Are you done or you still want to take a walk here? " "I'll go inside in a while" I said as I walked another direction. "Miss" one of them shouted as soon as I took a few steps towards the garden. I stopped and looked back. The guards came up to me "Do you need us to walk with you? The sun is setting already. " he said. "No, I can go myself and I'm not going anywhere outside. I'll be inside the wall. I'm just hanging around the garden" I said to them but they didn't seemed conviened at all. "It's not safe like that " he spoke. I looked at him and he had
"Uhh... I don't know ... Tell me your time. I'll try to manage.. " I thought for a while and told him. I've to ask Mr. Gold for it. "I'm taking a leave tomorrow. And I'm taking her to date on seven at night. So I need to be ready and all... I need you for about an hour. So, how about you came after the lunch break. If it is convenient for you" he calculated his time. "Well, I'll try to do that. I'll ask for half day tomorrow. If he won't agree, I'll also take a leave. Don't worry " I said to him. "Aww thank you so much Riley. You are so kind hearted" was he sucking me up? Well, he must be so happy after such a time he was finally going to purpose Anyee. I was so excited that I wanted to Anyee right now and tell her about the news but I can't just spoil their moment right? "Of course I'll do since I had already promised you" "Riley, I'm so excited for tomorrow. I can't wait for the morning to come" he said through the phone and his voice alone was so his words were n
"Sis.. What??" I was shocked to my guts. How can this be...? She was his... Sister. That was why she was so close to him and he don't even said anything to her. I feel so ashamed of myself for being jealous of her. "Did you think otherwise?" Liam raised his brow towards me. "I.. " I took her as his lover. I said inside my head but outside, I looked away with a small muffle "Nothing" "Ok" he uttered. He then inserted the car key. The car engine roared once and the car sped up out of the villa. I looked away all the way to the office. Liam was also silent all the time. It was difficult to say if he don't want to disturb my peace or want to enjoy his one company. When we reached the office, we directly went to the top floor. To our expectation, Mr. Gold hadn't arrived yet. There was no much work for me as usual. I sat on his chair lazily since Liam went out to do some of his regular check on the works going on the different depar
"Here we are" he spoke up as he glanced at the big mall in front of him. I nodded and came out of it while he took the car in the parking area. He came back in a few minutes. After that we entered the mall. "Do you know her finger size? " I glanced around and the jewelry shop didn't seem to be in the first floor. "Let's go to the third floor, I had seen a shop there last time" he added "And her ring finger is just in this size" he took out a key ring out of his pocket. I walked towards the elevator "How come you have her size just in your pocket? " "Ahh, I have been preparing for it for a long time. I have my own ways" he shrink his shoulders with a cheerful smile in his face. He seemed to be over the moon right now. "You ain't telling me? "I asked. He shook his shoulder and we entered the elevator along with few more peoples with us. The elevator started to move upwards and stopped after a few while. We
The cab arrive the given location. I looked at the familiar surrounding as the memories came back in my head. Most of the memories were pleasant except for that night which kept me stay away from here. I keep staring at the building when a voice startled me "Mam, we are here" the driver notified me since I was lost in my own thoughts. I looked at him and tried to smile but my lips felt it hard to form a curve. I opened my purse and handed him his payment. I opened the cab"s door and climbed down off the cab. Few seconds later the cab drove off in distance and I was left there alone with my thoughts. I stepped closer to the building and each step took felt more heavier than the previous one. When I reached to the gate, the guard there was having food sitting on a chair. He put his down and fix his glasses before looking at me. He have to stare at me for a while before he finally recognize me "riley? What are you doing here? I thought you left this place for goo
"hello, mam " a waiter approached me while I sat on a chair. I looked at her and a sweet girl was standing there with a beautiful smile. "What do you want to have?" she asked as she handed down a menu. I took the menu in hand and took a glance at it. There were name of the various types of coffee. I pointed at cappuccino "I want this please" The waiter smiled at me and once again her white row of teeth was seen. She slightly nodded as she walked away. "Tring" just then my mobile phone vibrated once. I took it out and looked at it once. It was Rick, he had message me the address of the resturant and then another message followed by. It states "Please get her there at eight, it'll be perfect time to propose her. Please" Eight? Won't it be a little late? But they are the ones I have. I have to help him. I sent him a OK with a smiley emoji. "Thank you so much Riley" he messaged me once again. I wanted to message him back but the waiter approach towards me with my cappuccino.
As she was away from my sight, I came out of the shadow. I was so happy for both if them. They were finally going to get the happiness they deserve. I smiled as I entered the elevator. In the elevator I open my phone and was about to message Liam when his message pop up instead "Thank you Riley, I'll never forget your support" "I'm on one then" I replied him. He didn't take time to reply to me "Sure, drive home safe" He must be excited to accompany Anyee. "Good luck and congratulations to you both in advance" I send him the last message. I came out and looked around. Thanks to the resturant for being in a popular area, it was easy to find a cab nearer. I open the cab app on phone and looked for the available cab around here. There were more than thirty cabs around when I typed the destination and my location. I booked one randomly and gave the cab driver my name and my location to pick me up. I was about to put my phone on my bag but it slipped from my hand and very next sec
