Kimberly and Harry had been dating for a year and were planning to get married, but a harsh truth shattered everything. Harry was cheating on Kimberly with Deborah, Kimberly's stepsister, and they already had a child together. Kimberly decided to end their relationship. Kimberly was devastated and grew to resent Deborah even more. What Deborah did was exactly the same as what her mother did. They both stole someone else's man and had a child with him. Michael, their father, had an affair with his secretary and had a daughter, Deborah. Fortunately, Kimberly had a reliable friend in Nicholas. Even though he was gay, he always understood Kimberly's feelings. However, a secret was eventually revealed that changed their relationship.
View MoreKimberly, who had just stepped out of the elevator, stopped. Her eyes narrowed and her forehead furrowed as she saw someone walking towards her. She let out a harsh breath and immediately put on a cold face. She folded both hands in front of her, as if preparing to block the person."What are you doing here?" Kimberly asked in a firm tone. Her face showed an expression of dislike. She looked the person up and down and scoffed. "Who are you trying to seduce with that outfit? You're a real bitch!"Deborah suddenly appeared at the office where Kimberly worked, wearing very sexy clothes. A broken white crop top and a very short leather skirt. It was probably only as high as her bottom. Not to mention her black thigh-high boots that made Deborah look like she was going to a nightclub.Deborah rolled her eyes lazily when she passed Kimberly. She stopped and glared at Kimberly just to say, "None of your business!" After that, Deborah walked away from Kimberly.Kimberly snorted in annoyance b
Since that day, Kimberly had been trying to get closer to Harry. She even continued to ignore Nicholas, even though the man tried to act like before. Kimberly only spoke to Nicholas to maintain professionalism.“Kim. Why didn’t you answer my calls?” Nicholas walked with long strides, intending to catch up with Kimberly, who was already far ahead of him. It was quitting time, and they were heading towards the elevator. Kimberly looked confused when suddenly Nicholas was behind her. Their rooms were on different floors, but why was Nicholas on her floor?“I was busy, so I didn’t have time to read your message.” Kimberly replied without stopping. She didn’t even turn to look at Nicholas. She had been acting like this to him several times.Nicholas, who did not get a good response from Kimberly, stopped. He was silent while his eyes continued to stare at the girl’s back. This was the umpteenth time he had tried to mend his friendship with Kimberly, but now she was the one who kept her dis
Kimberly took a deep breath. Once again, she woke up in Nicholas's apartment. Even though she had just opened her eyes, she already knew where she was. Nicholas's room was so familiar to her that she could recognise it at a glance.Again and again, Kimberly always ended up in this apartment when she was drunk. It made her realise that she had been too dependent on Nicholas all this time. She always troubled him with her personal matters."I guess I’m too much of a burden," Kimberly muttered with a small laugh. "Maybe it’s time for me to keep my distance from Nicholas. We both have partners." Kimberly stared at the ceiling, her memories swirling back.Looking back, Nicholas knew almost everything about her, but Kimberly didn’t know anything about Nicholas. She had never even met her best friend’s family, even though Nicholas was very close to her father."Am I a bad friend?" she asked herself. Whenever there was a problem, she would seek Nicholas to listen to her stories. Yet Kimberly
Kimberly turned around, ignoring Nicholas calling her name. She didn't know how to explain her feelings at the moment. She was devastated and disappointed when she saw Nicholas's intimacy with the man. She had seen the man who was with Nicholas before. He was the man rumoured to be Nicholas's lover. He had come to this office a few months ago.Kimberly had never met the man personally, and Nicholas had never introduced him to her.Kimberly took a deep breath as she entered the elevator. She stepped back until her back was against the side of the elevator. Her hands clenched her chest, which felt so painful. Kimberly knew this would happen, but she wasn't ready.Kimberly's eyes felt hot as clear tears forced their way out of the corners of her eyes. This time, she could no longer hold back the tears that had been dammed up in her eyelids. But she quickly wiped away her tears when the elevator door opened. She got out and went straight to her room. After grabbing her bag, Kimberly went
After dinner that night, Kimberly didn't see Harry for a few days. They didn't contact each other either. Kimberly understood because Harry might be having problems with his work."Why has it been so quiet lately?" Kimberly, who was going down the stairs, stopped in her tracks. She looked around as if she was searching for something. Kimberly closed her eyes and took a deep breath. "The air is really fresh. I haven't smelt that foul odour for a few days. No wonder I feel so good."Kimberly opened her eyes. Her mouth broke into a wide smile. She realised that Deborah had not been within her reach for a few days. Although she didn't care about Deborah's whereabouts, Kimberly always ran into her at home. And that made Kimberly feel bad.With a cheerful face, Kimberly continued her descent down the stairs. She had to get to the office soon because there was a departmental meeting this morning. Kimberly hoped that Nicholas would show up this time so she could scold the man to her heart's c
Days went by so quickly and Nicholas still hadn't appeared before Kimberly. Even the message from a few days ago hadn't been read. However, Kimberly was a little forgetful because she had a lot of work. There were some new products that made the marketing team work overtime. They had to think about how to innovate in sales.Kimberly sighed deeply. She had not left her room since morning, and she had not even had lunch. Usually, Nicholas would bring her food when she was busy.Kimberly put down her glasses. She rubbed the bridge of her nose because it felt very stiff. Her phone rang and she turned her gaze. Harry's name was displayed as the caller. Although she was a little lazy, Kimberly still answered the man's call. Kimberly had been ignoring Harry for quite some time. Maybe this was the time to mend their relationship.“Hi, Kim. Finally, you answered my call.” Kimberly had opened her lips, intending to greet him, but Harry spoke first. The man's voice sounded happy, like someone wh
After failing to find Harry anywhere, Kimberly decided to go home. Perhaps she had been mistaken, because when she called Harry, he said he was still at the office. Kimberly also didn't hear any noise like she had at the nightclub. She actually didn't want to go home, but if she didn't, Liana and Deborah would feel like they had won. She wouldn't let that happen. After all, this was her house. Kimberly wouldn't let anyone take it from her.Kimberly entered her house and continued walking towards the stairs leading to her room. She didn't care that there were two people sitting in the living room. As far as she was concerned, she was the only one in this house."Kimberly!" Michael's shout sounded ordinary to Kimberly. She even continued walking without paying any attention to her father. "Kimberly Spencer!"Kimberly took a deep breath as she stopped walking. Although she didn't want to consider Michael as her father, she couldn't erase the blood ties between them. So, she stopped, espe
Until it was time to go home, Kimberly still couldn't meet Nicholas. Even the messages she had sent since earlier had gone unanswered. Kimberly also asked Clara about Nicholas's whereabouts, but the woman insisted that he was out of town.After tidying up her desk, Kimberly visited Nicholas's office once more before finally giving up. It seemed like something she had done the night before had made him avoid her. Kimberly realized that she had been too much, so she tried to apologize. In fact, all the messages she sent were full of apologies.Because Kimberly had other things to take care of, she left the office after failing to meet Nicholas. Taking a taxi, Kimberly returned to the club she had visited the night before. She wanted to find out who had dared to mess with her. Even though she suspected one person, she had to find proof.Arriving at the club, she went straight to the bar. Ben's face immediately tensed up when he saw Kimberly arrive. But he quickly m
Nicholas couldn't focus on driving because everything Kimberly did was distracting him. She even started to lean in and try to kiss him. Feeling angry and frustrated, Nicholas pulled over and stopped the car. He then reached for a rope he had placed in the back seat the day before."Come on, Nick. I want to have some fun. Aren't you attracted to this body of mine?" Kimberly laughed."Shut up, Kim!" Nicholas snapped as he tied Kimberly's hands behind the seat. He swallowed hard when his eyes accidentally landed on her chest. It was so round and full, showing that it had never been touched by any man.Kimberly was wild. She loved going to nightclubs and getting drunk. However, Nicholas knew that she was still a virgin. Kimberly had even told him that no man had ever kissed her. Although she had had many boyfriends, none had managed to steal her first kiss.After tying Kimberly's hands, Nicholas pulled her towards him. Just as his face was in front of hers, he froze. But something unexpe
"Thank you for attending our presentation on the products we offer. We are open to any questions and further discussions.
