CHERRY'S POVI feel so guilty for lying to big Sis but I know that if I told her that I am working as a cleaner, she would definitely make me resign.As of the new job, I am staying to do the work. I will just stay out of that mean man's trouble.I need to work out the money that I will use for her company's party. I will also buy some clothes for my mother as well.Yesterday, the work was really hectic because of Sir Andrew.But after the advice from my new friend and colleague, I am willing to do this work with diligence. “Mother, I am late for work. I am going now. Make sure you take your medicines as prescribed, do you hear me?”. I said to my mum who was lying on her bed but not sleeping. “I have heard you. I hope you haven't finished all the food at home?”“Mum, how can I finish the food at home? I have eaten my share, your share is waiting for you in the kitchen”.“Alright take care then. And don't come back late, okay?”“Alright. ..Alright”. I pecked her cheeks hurriedly and
CHERRY'S POVI froze the moment I saw him, how could it be him?He also froze when he saw me. But the next moment he behaved like he didn't know me at all.“You can leave us now”. He said with an aloof tone to Sir Andrew, who whispered in my ears with a smirk “You are doomed for sure”.Mr Grumpy is the CEO of this company. Since it's him, I will surely stop working after today.“Your uniform is cute”. He said with a smirk on his face. “Mr grumpy. …sorry Mr CEO I…. didn't know this was your company, don't worry i will resign immediately.”.“You think you can resign that easily after breaking a flower vase worth millions of dollars?”. He asked with an intimidating look. “I didn't break the flower vase, this is a set up. Someone broke it and he or she is trying to pin the blame on me”. I defended myself with tears threatening to fall down my eyes.“Can you prove that you didn't break the flower vase?”.“You don't believe me?”.“Why should I believe you? If you don't provide evidence th
DANIEL'S POVI was shocked to see Cherry in my office. I didn't know that this branch that I've not visited for years will be where I will meet her.Yes, my mother is the sole owner of this branch. This branch deals with jewelry design and it is the second best in the country.I knew she didn't break the vase but I don't want her to leave my sight again. That was why I challenged her to find out the culprit in one week's time.She is also my mother's target, it will be dangerous for her if my mother finds out that she is working as a cleaner in her company, she will definitely make life miserable for her.Not that I can't protect her though, but she still has some grudge against me, that's why she wanted to resign.I took her back to my mansion to ask her who gave her the inhaler that she brought to me at the bar that night.She looks so beautiful when she's asleep. I sat beside her on the bed and removed the strands of hair that were covering her face.Suddenly she held my wrist and
VERONICA'S POVI can't possibly move in with Simeon, at least not right now that I haven't even achieved anything. I don't know what he is planning but I won't give him that chance to know about my own secrets. Today, I plan to go with my team for the outreach. The site they sent to me is really a rural area, but I don't mind as long as I achieve what I want.The election is fast approaching and I haven't even made any preparation yet for my plan B.I observed my new looks in the mirror, I totally changed, with a different face and different body shape.I got ready with my team and we traveled to the area. The journey was two hours and some minutes.My assistant did a great job, she has already arranged for the doctors and nurses, in fact treatment was already going on by the time I arrived. I watched as each person was attended to from my car. I waited for everything to be over before I would come down and introduce myself to them.Free food was given to each and every one of them
SIMEON'S POVEverything is going according to my plans, Veronica doesn't know what awaits her yet.My plans are falling into place. She thinks she can use the media to threaten me to marry her, she has really overestimated herself.My second plan is to find the little boy whose mother I used to ruin Emma's wedding with Jason.My phone rang on my way to work and it was that bitch Veronica who was calling me.“Hello, little slut”. I said with a mischievous grin.“We went back to being enemies so soon”.It seems the person that I hired promised her something. That's interesting to hear.“I am quite busy right now, what do you want?”. I asked, sounding urgent.“It's nothing, I didn't see you when I woke up this morning, so I wanted to know where you are”. She replied like a good wife.“When did you start caring about my whereabouts? I hope what happened last night didn't make you misunderstand? We are still enemies”.“It's fine, you don't need to tell me, I know that we are not compatibl
CHERRY'S POVI am now like Daniel's nanny, I took sick leave from work and had to take care of him at his house.Though I lied to my mom that there is an event happening in the office and I won't be back for some days.I have been in Daniel's house for five days now, he has fully recovered and the wound is not that fresh anymore.Today, I plan to resume at the office. Daniel insisted that he would also resume today with me.I packed enough food to eat. When we got close to the office, I insisted that Daniel drop me because I don't want anyone to know that I've been with him for the past five days.“Cherry welcome back to work. Are you okay now?”. Zara ran to me as she spotted me at the gate, she welcomed me with flowers, I was really moved by her actions.“I am perfectly fine now, how are you doing?”. I asked her after hugging her.“Very well thank you, let's go in my lady”. She said in a playful manner.We settled in the changing room with other girls.“Look, she's back to break more
EMMA'S POVAn unknown number called me at the office. When I picked up the call, I was surprised to hear Daniel's mother voice. She finally broke the code. Before I left Daniel, she made it clear to me that if we happen to meet in the future that I should act like a total stranger towards her.I did just that at the hospital, the day she picked on Cherry. I wonder what could be so important now that she needs to call me. “Hello, who is this please?” I asked her, not that I didn't recognize her voice but because I wanted to act oblivion towards her.“We need to talk”. She replied with no emotion.“Is that how you talk to strangers madam? You didn't even introduce yourself before opening your mouth to vomit nonsense”. I retorted back with the same tone.“You are the one that has refused to let my son breathe and live a peaceful life”. She yelled out.“Accusing me now?” I asked“Accusing you? I didn't call you to barter words with you. This is just a warning, next time, I will take act
EMMA'S POVMy eyes gradually opened and the room was dark, I couldn't see anything. But what happened to me? I calmed down to rethink about what happened. And I remembered that I was with Jason and he…..I couldn't even think about it.How would Jason do that to me? No, there must be a misunderstanding somewhere.I need to find out what's going on. I stood up and I almost stumbled with the heavy dress that I was wearing. Just then, I began to inspect the long thick gown that I was wearing. This seems to be a wedding gown.At that moment, the room's light was turned on and everywhere was very bright.I covered my eyes because my eyes weren't able to contain the bright light at first, but gradually I opened it.What I saw in the room shocked me. Jason was at the center of the room, smiling while Judith, Kelvin, in fact the team I selected for the event were also present in the room wearing smiles on their faces.“What's going on Jason?”. I asked curiously. “First of all my love, I wan
BRUNO'S POVAfter talking about my Cherry outside I came inside. I walked to the table that I sat with her before, I only saw Pearl who was busy sleeping on the table.I tapped her to ask her where Pearl is but she was heavily drunk. I looked around the tables but she was nowhere to be found.“Are you looking for your wife?”. One of the waitresses asked me and I nodded vigorously.“She went this way and I saw four groups of boys touching her”.“Please take me to her immediately”. The waitress took me to her and when we got to the door it was locked but someone was screaming inside.“Open this door if not I will break the door”. No one came to open the door for me.Fear gripped me. I imagined all sorts of things at the same time.Let it not be that they have succeeded with my woman.“Go and call for help already”. I yelled at the waitress who just stood there. I was pushing the door but it wasn't opening. I heard Cherry's painful scream. I got really angry and broke the door.Thank
PEARL'S POVThis is the opportunity I've been waiting for. Cherry have to be taken down tonight.It's because of she that Daniel is going crazy. He even pushed me for her.Although I never wanted the pregnancy, because he's a bastard. A mistake I don't want to talk about. I have prepared a special gift for Cherry tonight.“Miss Pearl, what is your spouse's favourite color and why?”. The speaker asked me.“He doesn't have a favourite color because he believes all colors are beautiful”. I replied not caring if I failed or not. I am here for an important mission tonight.“Miss Pearl, your spouse's favourite color is red and his reason is that it's connected to someone special”.Of course it's Cherry. Daniel, you are so shameless, I fought for Cherry to leave the company and even after she left, you are still madly in love with her.“Next competition, the ladies would dress in disguise by wearing a veil while the men would be blindfolded to find their partner by their favourite perfumes
BRUNO'S POVThe moment I met Cherry in my cousin's place of work, I fell in love with her.I asked my sister that very day if she knew her and coincidently Cherry was her close friend.My cousin Zara lived with her parents and they are very wealthy but they betrothed Zara to someone that she doesn't love.They threatened to disown Zara. Zara left her family to start life on her own, she changed her name and every other thing related to the Sinclair family. I secretly supported her because we grew up together.After I left Cherry's home, I went straight to the shopping mall to buy her the best gown and every other accessory she would be needing for the competition tomorrow.And for the competition, my friend and I were the ones that organized it and the company that she is working as a jewelry designer, is my friend’s company.The purpose of the competition tomorrow is to prove that she never plagiarized anyone's work.“Give me these designs I need the gown in green color”.

CHERRY'S POVI left Daniel's company a month ago after I was accused of Plagiarism. They even made sure that they blacklisted my name so that no one would hire me.Surprisingly, I was employed by the best jewelry design company in the city and beyond.I didn't even submit my application to them. They just sent me an email for me to resume as their major jewelry designer. And ever since then, I worked hard for the company's growth. The company is now the number one jewelry designer.“Hello my Angel”. Bruno stopped his car in front of me and resumed flirting with me.Bruno has been so wonderful to me. He always comes to pick me up everyday after my work and he has never asked me for anything in return.“You are five minutes later, your bonus won't be paid this month”. I joked with a smile.“A punishment from an Angel is a blessing to me, so punish me any how you deem fit”. His words always makes me smile.I got in and he helped me fix the seatbelt. “My angel, I want to take you on a d
DANIEL'S POVIt's been a month since Cherry left the company.

I have tried my best to speak with her but she is still too angry with me and Bruno is trying his very best to take her away from me.“Daniel dear, what are you thinking about?”. Pearl rose from the bed and wrapped her arms around my neck.I don't even understand my feelings again for her. I have slept with her a few times but I don't love her, my heart loves Cherry but Cherry has completely changed.“Nothing, I am just tired and I want to go out for a break”. I got up from the bed and wore my pants. “Daniel, the baby wants another round, can we please do another round, you did it with me just once”. I got so irritated with her.I pushed her off of me and wore my
EMMA'S POVWell I have been riding my enemy for the past one month now. My baby and I are growing in good health.The father is also secretly keeping in touch with us. Angel thinks she has won but she doesn't know that me and Jason are at the top of the game.We want her to believe what we want her to believe.The day Jason was diagnosed of dementia that was the day he told me everything that was happening. He wanted us to play oblivion about everything. Angel even instated a mini camera in my bedroom just to monitor Jason and I.I have my memory intact, I never aborted my baby, I left to be with my aunty Grace.I don't want to risk my baby right now. I will face Angel very soon.“Emma, your phone has been ringing nonstop, here, have it”. My Aunty handed the phone which showed 'sweet hubby’ . I picked it up with a smile. “You know that you shouldn't be calling me, what if that vile woman is tracking our calls?“I am the one that's tracking her every call, and I have gotten so much e
CHERRY'S POV“Bruno? What are you doing here?”. I asked surprised to see him.“I am here to pick you up”. He replied with a wink.“Me? But I….”.“Come in, let's go”. He cut me off.I got into his car and settled inside.I had one thought in mind, Bruno looks quite rich, so why is Zara doing a cleaning job?Bruno looks so handsome, one can drown in his beautiful eyes, if not careful. “What are you thinking about my angel? Am I too handsome?”. He asked while trying to show off.“Please let's go”. I said with an embarrassed facial expression. “Where do you want me to take you, my lady?”“Stop teasing me Bruno, look at my direction”.I gave him the card that Emma once gave me in case I wanted to come over for a visit.He fastened my seatbelt and he drove me out of the work environment. The ride took about an hour before we got to the destination. “Thank you Bruno for bringing me here, I can manage from here”. I said to Bruno as we got to Mr Jason's house. “Aren't you going home toni
CHERRY'S POV We were seated in the conference room waiting for Miss Pearl to come and address us. She came in with Miriam after thirty minutes of waiting. They were smiling from ear to ear when they came in. Miriam came to where I was seated and folded her hand. She looked so vulnerable. “Cherry, please forgive me for all the wrongs I've done to you”. Seriously? Why is she begging now? Oh I see, maybe she thinks that I am planning to expose what I saw in the office today, but I won't. I believe one day they would be caught by the boss himself. As long as they don't make things difficult for me, I won't even spare a glance at them. “Actually, Cherry, I was the one that asked her to ask for your forgiveness because I want us to work as a team, because we achieve what we want easily if there is peace amongst us. So please forgive her”. So it's Miss Pearl that asked her to apologize to me. It's fine I will forgive her, but I won't let my guard down on her. “Alright, I have forgi
PEARL'S POVI am not as simple as I appear. Daniel and his fortune is my target but I have one obstacle on the way...Cherry.His mother warned me against her. The night that I drugged Daniel, was the night my journey to make Daniel mine began and I won't let an ordinary poor wretched girl steal him away from me.I don't have a boyfriend that traveled out. It's all a made up story. And when he appeared that day, I was also behind that plan, I made sure that he saw the pictures of my naked body with Daniel's.When Daniel's mother told me about the competition, I saw it as an opportunity to come into the company and as the saying goes ‘Keep your friends close and keep your enemies closer’That's exactly what I did as I came into the company today. I have seen a perfect tool to use to make her life miserable while working behind the scenes. That tool is Miriam.I saw deep hatred for Cherry in her eyes as I came in this morning. She would make things much easier for me.I saw the love bit
