Later that night,
Rose gritted her teeth in anger pacing around her room, how can Taylor be lucky all the time."She was meant to fall with the bench but the handsome god just had to save her", she thought annoyed.Rose was the one who told the controller to make the ride fast, seeing how uneasy Taylor was, and had also told a worker to create a huge dent on one of the legs of the bench. So when Taylor sat on it she'll fall, and hurt herself badly.Things were going as planned until she was saved again!. Rose grabbed a vase, smashing it on the floor, breaking into a million of pieces.Saturday, the next dayKate woke up, standing up from her bed she proceeded to the bathroom, washed her face and brushed her teeth.She walked out still feeling sleepy and sat on her bed. Grabbing her phone on the nightstand, turning it on, she was greeted with 7 missed calls from Andrew.Her eyes cleared, as she sat uprightRyn chuckled weakly, "you know my grandson so well I’m starting to think he might actually be yours". "You need to rest, Ryn," Gabriel said, worried for his friend. "And so are you", Ryn countered back. "I’m fine my friend you don't have to worry", he assured Gabriel but his voice was weak giving him away. "Okay, I'll let her know. Take it easy on the boy". "You know I am", Ryn said in a matter of fact tone. Then a knock was heard on the door."I'll call you back later", Ryn hung up, and looked at the door already knowing who it was. "Morning Grandpa", Charles greeted, walked over to his grandpa who sat on his rocking chair. "If I remember correctly, I sent for you yesterday not today", Ryn said with a displeased look. "Am sorry grandpa, I was busy but am here now", Charles lied smoothly, Ryn scoffed at his grandson's excuse. "Why did you send for me?". "This", Ryn said
Later that night, at Donovan Enterprise.Charles checked the time on his wristwatch, it was 7:20 pm and he had a date at 8pm. He groaned, running his hand through his hair,annoyed. When his secretary walked in."You're still here", Charles said in a flat tone."Yes, I certainly can't leave you alone", Jack said with a stern expression."Yh, right", Charles nodded with a playful smile, one he gave to those who were close to him. "Grandpa would be happy to hear you are taking good care of me".Jack rolled his eyes at his friend teasing, " he would be happier if you took good care of yourself"."I am", Charles said nonchalantly. "That's why you are here to make sure I’m taking good care of myself", he added with a playful wink.Jack rubbed his forehead with a defeated sign making Charles burst out laughing, he stared at Jack with a genuine smile.He and Jack had a really long history together. Jack had been a
Rose couldn't believe it, she was getting engaged to the Donovan heir, and will get married to him after 3 months. It sounded too good to be true, she couldn't help smiling. "But...if within 3 months I fall in love with another woman, I have every right to cancel the marriage, same goes for you". Rose stared speechless, she knew there was surely going to be a catch but she wasn't expecting that. "Here", Charles dropped a small velvet box in front of Rose. Rose opened the box revealing a diamond ring, "it's beautiful", she thought touching the diamond. "What are you waiting for?". Rose stared at him confused, "wasn't he going to put it on her". "Are you waiting for me to go down on one knee and propose to you?" Charles mocked. Rose swallowed the lump in her throat and wore the ring, she really wasn't expecting this at all, "so much for a gran
Kate walked into Donovan's Enterprise, it wasn't yet working hours and the place was already buzzing with activities, the time was 7:45am. She decided to use the elevator as there were people in, easing her a little. The elevator stopped at the presidential floor. Kate stepped out taking in a deep breath. After what happened on Friday she wasn't sure how she would act infront of Charles, "will he act like nothing happened". "Well it doesn't matter", she told herself, she should concentrate on why she's really in City S and avoid any distraction. Charles would probably act like nothing happened anyway, he wasn't the type who associates his personal life with business and she should too. "Morning Stella", she greeted as she walked past the reception desk. Stella bowed in response, "Morning ma'am". Kate turned to her right facing Charles' office. "Morning Jack", she greeted, who was stepping
"What are you doing Kate, get up", a voice screamed in her head but her body didn't move."Yh, what was she doing?"she asked herself, staring into his eyes. There was something about those black orbs, she felt attracted towards them."How can something so black look so beautiful? '' she wondered, staring intently into his eyes, they looked oddly familiar. There was no emotion evident in them, just a black pit of darkness, yet she couldn't help getting drawn to this darkness.The way he stares at her sends tingles down her spines and butterflies in her tummy, something she never experienced with Kyle."Why Charles?Why was she attracted to him? Kate wondered, her eyes searching his but all she saw was a black pit of nothing.Kate opened her mouth to speak but Charles beat her to it."I'm sorry", he apologized, "have been acting like shit today", he added with a chuckle.Kate thought his chuckle sounded weird like he was mocking himself, why?."Mind telling me what's wrong", Kate and th
Kate had to agree the tour was nice, she was impressed with how organized the company is after having so many departments and the tech they were using was top notch.They were on the 15th floor, Kate watched Charles talking on the phone a few meters away from her.She wasn't sure of what she was doing or what they were doing but deep down she liked it. It's funny she felt comfortable and carefree with him though they had just met.It was just her first day and so much had happened, after what happened on Friday she knew things were going to change between them but she wasn't expecting getting more cozy with him."Andrew would not like it when he finds out", Kate signed, rubbing her forehead. She walked down the hallway towards the elevator.She stopped in front of a door left slightly open, something caught her attention. It was a red car but why did the red car look familiar?A certain image flashed in her head, “ it can't be", Kate denied in her head, slowly stepping forward to take
“I know grandma but she doesn't look like a good person, I don't like her. You know what grandma, she looks like one of the wicked stepsisters in Cinderella”, Katie said laughing.Everyone stifled their laughs, Rose turned red in anger."You little...", Rose hissed about scolding Katie but Claire was quick to intervene."C'mon Katie, bedtime", Claire said, helping Katie out of her chair."But..", Katie tried protesting."No but dear, now apologize to the young lady", Claire coaxed.Katie turned to look at Rose hesitantly, "Sorry…”,she blew a raspberry and ran away."Don't mind Katie, she's just like that sometimes", Claire gave an apologetic look and walked out.Rose gave Claire a forced smile, "kids, how much she hated them", she thought. Why did everyone just hate her in the family? Charles' mum, the little girl, was sure even Charles' dad and elder sister disliked her but they didn't show it. She didn't care cause the Old Man liked her, her strongest backup."Thank you for joining
WARNING: MATURE CONTENTThe days had flown by quickly, it was Friday already. Kate couldn't believe it was almost 2 weeks since she arrived at City S.And her first week working at Donovan Enterprise was almost over, it was 3:30 pm.She and Charles had already talked about what they wanted to achieve in the next 6 months. They've concluded she'll design 2 cars, one design will be ready at the end of this month and the other the next month. At the end of the month, a meeting will be held to present the first design.As for their relationship, Kate didn't know what to call it, they weren't lovers to say they were dating or friends to call it friendship. Heck! What they did was more than what friends do.Kate couldn't help thinking she was one of those secretaries in the novels having a scandalous affair with her CEO boss, making out whenever they were alone, and acting professional in public. Except she wasn't a secretary or had any feelings for the CEO boss like the secretaries in the
