Andy’s POV:“What the fuck you think you’re doing?” his voice said, I stiffened looking at my new boss. I knew he wasn’t into phone calls, I looked back at the phone in my hand, then put it back inside my pocket, I just got the job, if I want to keep it, I should be careful.“You’re here to work, if you want to gossip…” he started then made closer steps towards me, when he was inches away from my face, his eyes scanned my body, then he smirked, I felt disgusted from the way he looked at me, so I backed away, heading back to the kitchen to take the order to the client.“A bad day huh?” Aaron said, I smiled at him, “I can’t take this anymore” I started, then grabbed the tray in my hands, and gave him another sad smile, “but I don’t have much of a choice” I added, he laughed, then got back to the work.It was weird really, I mean it was only me and Aaron who worked, the boss was nasty, and pissed all the time, it seemed like we were slaves, and also the money wasn’t good, but I didn’t h
Harris’s POV:“Then where is she?” I asked, “We’re still looking for her, and we will find her” Alex said on the phone, he was calm, and I was out of my mind, “so you’re telling me I should just wait? Is that it?” I asked, running my fingers through my hair, unable to control my anger.“No, but you have to stay calm, she’ll leave a trace, and that’s what are we waiting for” he explained, his tone still calm, and cold. But I couldn’t stay calm, I hung up on him, and was about to throw away the phone, but stopped myself…My phone started ringing again, “what?” I answered, “can we meet?” her soft voice made me more pissed, “no!” I almost yelled, I wasn’t in the mood for such silly things. But Chloe found out that Andy was gone, and she didn’t stop since then, she was trying so hard to win me back, but I kept rejecting her, over and over.“Don’t play hard to get” she whispered, I rolled my eyes, I was so annoyed that I could feel the blood coming out of my ears. “fine” I said, she gasped,
Harris’s POV:“So, it is true!” Mom said, she seemed so angry, and so did my father. “What have you done?” he asked, I frowned, looking away from them, “Harrison!!” my father said almost yelling, he was losing his patience, and I couldn’t but look back at their disappointed faces.I watched as they both approached me, “my poor son!!” mom gasped, looking at my face, she must’ve noticed how drunk and messed up I was, “whatever happened…we can fix it” she said, I was surprised of her words, she didn’t care about the scandal, all she cared about was me!“It’s a scandal…is it true? Why would Andy escape?” he asked, I frowned, I had all the answers, but this question was the only thing that keeps me awake every night. I was clueless, and confused at the moment.“Yeah, what happened?” mom asked, “Andy wouldn’t just escape without a real reason” dad said, as if he got it all figured out. “Mom, dad…I think you should sit for this” I said, looking down for a moment, I knew that they won’t let t
Andy's POV:I was shocked staring at him, while he started making closer steps towards me. "What...are you doing here?" I asked, looking at him, still shocked, how did he know my place?"You seem to forget about my good skills!" he said smugly, I started to panic, I turned around and was about to escape, but Rick grabbed my wrist. I froze, I knew that I was doomed."shush...just calm down okay? I'm not here to hurt you" he said, I frowned and turned to look into his honest face."Then why are you here? And how did you know I'm here?" I started asking, "I've been following you..." he whispered, then looked around us, as if he was afraid that someone would see us."Follow me" he ordered and started to walk , I froze, I shot him another questioning look, his eyes met mine again, "do you trust me?" he asked, I hesitated to answer his question but I nodded eventually, he smiled then walked away, while I only followed behind him.We entered a calm bar, the soft lights and music welcomed us.
Harris's POV:At some point I knew I had to stop, but I just couldn't. Looking at the mess around me, it was another typical morning after a long drinking night, it was something I hadn't experience for a while...I hadn't realize that my phone was ringing, till I felt my head almost exploding from the annoying sound. I groaned, sitting on the couch, I can't even remember when was the last time I slept in my room, because it remined me in that night, the first night I tasted her, and the first night I confirmed my feelings for Andy.I tried to stand but felt too weak, all the mess and the bottles around me reminded me of everything that's been going on in my life. It's even worse when I remember that it was all my fault, my mother still into a coma, and Andy's still missing.My phone started ringing again, I glared at it, my secretary's name appeared on the screen, and I knew something was wrong."Yes?" I asked annoyingly, "you really have to see this" she said, her tone was dead seri
Andy’s POV:Suddenly I bumped into someone, I looked up to see Jen, I was relieved, taking a deep breath. “Are you out of your mind?” she said, grabbing me by my wrist, we entered inside a dark room.“You have to leave, as soon as possible” she added, “he visited her early today” she said still confused, I was still shocked that Harris was a few steps from me, and he knew it was me.We both kept waiting until Jen said it was safe, still shocked and afraid, what would've happened if Harris caught me? I wasn't sure anymore, I felt like I don't know him anymore!But the thing that made me more confused was, part of me wanted to go to Harris, and pull him into a tight hug, my feelings were mixed. I was longing for him, but also was still disappointed and mad.After I was out of the hospital, I headed straight to California, I couldn't risk my life like that, everyone was looking for me, and it was so hard to stay undercover. But it worked anyway, though I almost got caught."Let me guess,
Andy’s POV:“That’s you!!” Abby said, still pointing at my picture on TV. I froze, still shocked, why would Harris put so much effort to find me? He was so obsessed to find me, and make me pay for leaving.I was still looking at Abby who was still looking at me, giving me a questioning look, still confused, why was my picture on TV?“What’s going on?” she asked, she was so serious, “who’s Andy? What the hell are you hiding?” she started asking all those questions standing from the sofa, I started to panic, “I’ll explain later, just please change the channel, and give me a chance to explain…” I pleaded, she took a deep breath, then nodded, Chad was back, then noticed the tension, “is everything okay?” he asked looking at Abby and me.“Yeah, everything’s fine” she answered him, then joined him on the sofa. I was relieved that she decided to listen to me instead of judging me.We were watching a movie, but all the time Abby seemed awkward. We barely talked, or laughed, I knew it was time
Andy’s POV:Everything was getting better in my life, except for one thing, MY BOSS!!!“How am I supposed to work for a drunken boss?” I asked, staring at Aaron who was only laughing at my reaction, “What are we supposed to do? We have to handle all of this shit, if we don’t wanna be broke in this city” he said, I shook my head “but it’s getting more serious, he’s not only treating us like his little bitches, but he’s also making this place looks like shit, this place has reputation. If people saw how drunk our boss is, what would they think?” I said in a serious tone, helping him with the cleaning.“You know, sometimes I think you’re in the wrong place, you’re smart, and know how things work” he started, I blushed shaking my head, while a small smile crept onto my face.“I’m just saying, how come you never thought of starting your own work?” he asked, “I guess I’ve always respected the fact that I need a boss around me” I started, remembering Harris, “but I think deep inside, it was
Andy’s POV: My eyes widened when the guy turned around, my doubts turned out to be true. Even though he was wearing a black mask, those blue ocean eyes made me recognize him right away. “Harris?” My voice barely audible, a smile crept onto his half masked face. His eyes were locked with mine for a moment, and I knew I was in trouble, just like every time. “surprised?” he said, scanning my look for a moment, then smirked. His eyes met mine again. I was about to turn, but he grabbed me by my waist, turning me around, so I was facing his smiley face. “What do you think you’re doing?” I asked, “can we at least dance?” he said, his hands traveled from my waist to my back. He pulled me close to him. And I could feel my breath fading away. A song started to play, I assume it was the same song that played in Paris, at Caleb’s party, he smirked. “What do you want, Harris?” I asked, looking away from him as he started to dance, making me sway along with him. All the dancers baby on t
Harris’s pov:I was very surprised that Tress finally decided to talk to me. I was trying to talk to her for the past few months.“What do you want?” she asked, her voice annoyed and pissed. “Tress…please, can you listen to me before judging me?” I asked, “I’ll think about it” her voice was more calm.“I love Andy…and I know how much she loves me…” I started, “but I don’t think she needs me as much as I need her” I added, she remained silent for a moment.“I don’t think there’s another good friend that knows what’s good for his friend like you do” I said, “I just want to know what happened suddenly that made Andy leave?” I asked, she remained silent for a moment, “as if you don’t know” she said, making me shake my head.“I swear…I don’t” I said, “you have to stop all the acting, Andy knows about you and Chloe” she said, seemed honest. My eyes widened, “what?” I asked, feeling my heartbeat accelerating.“She knows that you were back to Chloe, and the worst part was that you told Chloe
Harris’s POV:I stood from my seat, her eyes were locked with mine, and I could feel my heart skipping a beat. Andy was there in front of me, still standing at the doorway, but the way she looked at me, it wasn’t the same anymore.We kept staring at each other for what looked like ages, and it was burning me from the inside. I was too weak, and she was a few inches away from me, but I was unable to walk towards her.Suddenly, she started walking towards my desk, then put some papers on it. I frowned, narrowing my eyes at the papers on my desk. I froze looking at her cold eyes, I was about to say something but she beat me to it.“I signed them…we’re no longer…husband and wife” she said, the shock left me silent, I was about to explain, but I couldn’t speak, instead I kept scanning every inch I loved in her, and it was everything, there was nothing that I didn’t love about the girl she was standing in front of me. I made a few steps closer to her.She flinched, looking away from me, I
Andy’s POV:I was still staring at Hector, who was looking back at me. I was unable to move, standing in front of him as if I was a body without a soul.“What were you expecting?” he asked, “that you can do whatever you want, then just run?” he added, I frowned, then looked away from him.“This was your son’s idea…” I started, but he interrupted me, making closer steps towards me, “but you agreed to it” he said, I opened my mouth to protest, “you lied to all of us, especially to my wife” he said, he was pissed, and annoyed.I gulped, not having any idea of what to answer him, deep down, I knew he was right! But I couldn’t just watch while he was putting all the blame on me.“My wife was lying in a bed inside a hospital for like a month, because of your actions, you and my son” he said, I looked down, not able to look at his disappointed face. I was tearing apart from the inside, I’ve never felt much humiliation in my whole life.I gulped, not looking into his eyes, “I kind of expected
Harris’s POV:I knew that I couldn’t do that anymore, I was struggling and fighting back, just to stay away from alcohol. I hated the fact that I was weak, and needy. And it sucks that I had to have the same bad hangover every morning.Which is why I decided to make a promise, that I’ll stop all of this shit, and was trying to occupy my time with various activities, I even started to go swimming, and boxing.Caleb was shocked, still not believing the fact I was trying to stop all of the mess in my life. But all of that didn’t stop me from thinking about her, Andy was keeping my mind occupied, even at work, I wasn’t able to focus. Most of my meetings were no longer interesting, because she wasn’t around anymore.And most of the employees were confused, and negative all the time, and that made me more aware of the upcoming consequences. If I continue in this way, I’ll lose everything!“The doctor said she’s doing good, but…” My father said, “but she she’s still in coma” I said, dad look
Andy’s POV:“Are you alright?” Landen asked, I froze looking at him, then nervously wiped my tears, “yeah…sorry, it was an urgent phone call” I said with an apologetic look, he nodded, “it’s okay to have phone calls, as long as your work is done. It’s also okay if you want to read some of our books” he finished, I felt relieved that he was friendly.“Anyway, if you need any help with these documents, just ask for Elena’s help” he said before leaving me, I received another call, I decided to switch my phone off, since I have some work to do.After I finished all the work, it was lunch time. I headed outside the library after I took Landen’s permission of course.I switched my phone on, and after a moment or two, it started ringing, I frowned, it was Tress. “hey…” I started, but she interrupted me. “thank god you’re okay!!” she gasped, taking a deep breath, her voice shaking.I frowned, “what’s going on?” I asked, “Andy, Harris knows that you were working with…” she started, “Kim?” I wh
Harris’s POV:My eyes were fixed on the girl with the black masked girl, the dress fit perfectly on her body, and her red hair made her more…I looked away from her nervously. What the hell I was doing? Maybe it’s the bourbon, because I swear that girl wasn’t just some girl.It was Andy, but with different hair color. I shook my head, and took a deep breath, looking up at her once again. My eyes widened, and it was official, I was losing my mind because of her love, there was no one sitting there, but I could swear I just saw her sitting at the bar, holding her glass of wine.“What’s wrong?” Caleb asked, joining our group. “nothing…” I said, then walked to the bar, still confused, my eyes looking at every face there. I sighed, I was out of my mind, that girl totally made me not only crave her, but also she was driving me crazy!I ordered a glass of bourbon, and took my seat, then suddenly I was surprised of Caleb’s sitting right next to me, “where the hell did that black masked girl
Andy’s POV:Harris was staring at the camera, he said he wanted to confess a lot of things. I stared at Abby, who seemed shocked, just like me. “My wife did leave” he started, then looked down for a moment. I frowned, I couldn’t believe he would do anything to keep his water face safe.“I can see why you escaped” Abby said, patting on my back, I was still staring at his sad face, or probably his fake sad face.“But, it was because of me,” he said, I frowned, “my wife cares a lot about her reputation, and since she left, it means something went wrong. I know how much she loved me, but…I was a bad husband, always late, and always busy, but cheating wasn’t one of the things, it’s just a huge misunderstanding” he said. I gasped, studying his face.“I can’t believe you escaped! WOW” Abby whispered, “leave Andy, and my family out of this” his eyes pleading, “I’m ready to let you go, Andy” he said, “but I really hope you come back, and give me a second chance” he said, and with that he fin
Andy’s POV:“So, you’re his wife, I knew I saw you somewhere” Kim’s voice from behind, she was very shocked, “so, you’re Andy!” she added, I turned to look at her mad face, her arms were crossed over her chest, as she shot me a deadly glare.I never saw her as pissed, I opened my mouth to explain, but she stopped me, shaking her head, “and you lied about your name? this is a company, what were you going to do when we discovered your little lie?” she asked, still staring at me with the most disgusted look I could ever describe.It was so hard for me to see the disappointed look on her face. She wasn’t only disappointed but also angry, and sad.“Why did you lie? And why did you escape?” she asked, I frowned, I trusted her, but it didn’t mean that I was ready to talk about it, I was still surprised that Harris was in the same building as me…“Really? After everything?” she asked, seemed more disappointed, “it’s not that I don’t trust you” I said, she looked away nervously, “if you don’t
