The next day Mira woke up to the sound of her ringing tone.

Grumbling, she reaches out for her phone on the top of her desk.

Without checking the caller ID, she picked up. "Hello?"

"Mira, are you still asleep?"

On hearing Andrew's voice, Mira's eyes jolted wide opened. "Andrew? How did you get my number?" She shakes her head. "Anyways, why did you call? It's Saturday"

Andrew chuckled. "You didn't forget about our 'stakeout' today, now, did you?"

"Stakeout?" Mira rubbed her forehead as she suddenly remembered. "That's right, it's today. I nearly overslept. Thanks for calling"

"It's not a problem. By the way, are you alright? You sound quite unlike your usual self"

Brandon was still on Mira's mind like a leech but she was determined to brush him off, even if it was just for today. She had to focus on work. "It's probably because I'm just waking up"

"I understand. We decided to go in teams, remember? Let me know when to pick you up"

"That's not necessary, Andrew. We can just m

    "But sir, we have so much to do today. A field trip is a bit..." Valentina starts. "I know work is a bit tough on everyone, that why I'm suggesting this" Kyle says with his hands in his pockets. "So everyone round up with you are doing and get ready" When Kyle was out of sight, Mira walked up to Valentina. "This field trip might just be exactly what you need to calm down. You've been edgy these days, V" Valentina heaved a heavy sigh. "I know that but how can I calm down? The company is fairing badly because of us. We should be working harder than before not playing around" "Don't you see why boss is suggesting this field trip?" Dwayne questions Valentina. "He can see just how much pressure we're under" "That's right" Andrew countered. "Just use this trip to blow off some steam. Who knows we might be able to think better when we're all relaxed?" Kyle rejoins the team. "Is everyone ready?" Mira assures Valentina with a smile before turning to face Kyle. "Yes, boss" "Then, let's

    The next day when Mira wakes up, she stretches with a smile on her face; glad to have come on this field trip as aged forgotten about all her problems. But then suddenly, her mind drifts off to Andrew's drunken confession last night as the smile on her face suddenly disappeared. "What do I do? I can't act as if it never happened. That might hurt Andrew's feelings" She mumbles. Grumbling, she pulls out her hair. "I don't know, honestly" Deciding not to dwell on it too much, Mira climbs down from her bed as she moves to the bathroom to shower. When she was all freshened up, Mira left her room as she headed to the dining; where she was sure the others were gathered and she was right. Each and every one of the them looked like they'd just been hit by a bus; Mira stiffles a laughter over this as she joined them by the dinning table. "Can you still laugh this morning?" Valentina questioned Mira, jealous that she didn't feel like hell. Mira smiles. "Yes, I can. Wait here while

    The following day as Mira walks into the company, she mutters her usual words of encouragement."Everything is going to be alright, Mira. Let's focus on work; that's what truly matters. Let's forget about Andrew or Brand---" She swallows her words as she sees Brandon flirting with other ladies from the company. Mira rubs her eyes; wanting to believe that her eyes were playing tricks on her but there Brandon was in the flesh, his hands trailing the skin of that red haired lady she knew not. "That pr***!" Mira cussed as she makes her way towards him; her anger obviously taking the best of her. She poundered on what she should do to him; grab his hair? Kick his person or slap him as hard as she could. When she just a stone throw away from him, Mira decided to be 'humane' for the sake that she was at work. Crossing her arms, she stared at Brandon; who suddenly noticed her, long and hard."What are you doing here?" Mira questioned through clenched teeths. "Mira, right?" Brandon ques

    "Then..." Mira says as she walks up to Andrew taking the cup of coffee from his hand. "Thank you" They sip their coffee in a comfortable silence. While Mira seems to be enjoying the silence, Andrew broke the ice. "Is something wrong? You look like you have alot on your mind" Andrew says observing Mira's facial features. "How can you tell?" "I'm very good at reading people. So? Wanna lay your burden on me?" Mira was in deep thoughts for a while but since Andrew seems to not remember his confession to her, she concluded to treat him as she used to. "Should I? Then, here it goes" Mira sips her coffee. "My sister's boyfriend is quite sketchy" "Sketchy?" "Yes. He's doing something that if I tell my sister about it, she won't be able to move for days" "How bad is it?" "Hmm, let's say like smuggling drugs out of the country?" Andrew nods his head. "And you are worried if you should tell your sister or not, right?" "Yes, what should I do?" "Just do whatever your guts tells you

    Mira smiled to herself with all the sweet words she had heard from Andrew all through the day, although, Kyle was the one she had feelings for, but she couldn’t help but replay all that happened to her.“Hey sister, you’re back home. How was work, by the way?” Mirabel asked as she turned off the gas.“Well, it was fine. Had a nice day at work. Is that beef stew you just finished cooking?” Mira asked, exclaiming in joy.“Really? Now, I guess the beef stew summed up your nice day.” Mirabel teased as she served the beef stew and went straight to the dining.“Of course. Beef stew is one sumptuous meal, and when prepared by you, it tastes exquisite.” Mira complimented as she sat down, ready to dig in the food.“I see. Well, I’m glad you love it. I’m going to give Brandon a taste of it, seeing that you’ve always complimented my cooking skills on it.” Mirabel smiled as she took a spoon of soup.Mira lost her appetite as she heard Brandon’s name and especially that her sister was still engros

    Mira couldn’t believe her ears, she never thought that Kyle would ever make such confession to her. This was like a dream come true for her, but she didn’t know how to respond to it, because she had never expected it.“I want us to talk better on this, but not at work, so you’ll certainly give me time, when I ask for it, right?” Andrew asked, with a charming smile.“Yes.” Mira responded without thinking.~Mira got back to the office, fazed by the confession she had heard from Kyle. She started smiling to herself and covering her face, while blushing.“Did anything good happen?” Andrew asked, smiling at Mira.“Not really. I just remembered something, that’s why.” Mira defended, trying not to raise suspicion.“Oh, I see. Do you mind to share?” He asked as he leaned on my desk.“Nah. It’s better off a secret.” Mira smiled as she picked up some papers.“Mira, in case you have forgotten, you haven’t eaten anything and we still have enough time for break. I think you should stand, and let

    Mira ran out of the house, then rushed straight to the company, hoping that she would see Andrew, waiting for her, but he wasn’t there. “Oh,my goodness. How could I forget?” She bit her lips as she paced around. Mira brought out her phone and dialed Andrew’s number, but there was no answer to the call. “He must have been annoyed. For Andrew to be annoyed, he must have waited for long without seeing me.” She muttered under her breath as a smoke-like vapor came out of her mouth. In the blink of an eye, she got a call and to her joy, it was Andrew. “Andrew, I’m so sorry I stood you up…” “Hello, ma’am. This isn’t Andrew. The person you are trying to reach is currently in the hospital now and has been given immediate attention. If you are his guardian or you are close to him, kindly make your way to Davidson Hospital.” The caller informed, then hung up after she responded. Fear gripped Mira as she didn’t know what had happened to him and if his case was serious. She hailed a cab and

    Kyle was restless and uncomfortable that Mira had not replied him since the time he sent her a message, knowing that she would have seen it.“Why isn’t she replying my message?” He said as he bit his fingers, wondering about the reason she had not replied.“Or could she be avoiding me? No… No, that can’t be. She wouldn’t do that.” He muttered under his breath and sat on his couch.Then a call came in from Katherina, his secretary.“It’s absurd that I am getting a call this late. Is there anything wrong?” He asked, raising his eyebrows.“Sir, there is a document that was mixed up. The contract that was supposed to be sent to HK beauty was mixed up and it seems that it was the letter, which you kept in a file that you wanted to give to Miss Mira is what was sent to them.” Katherina said, with a worried tone.“What!” Kyle exclaimed as he jumped up from the couch.“Where is his secretary at now?” Kyle asked, immediately.“We have tracked him and he is still at a bar. I guess he would be s

    Kyle was still shocked with the news and didn’t know what to say to his workers. He could barely look at them in the faces, yesterday, but he had to act tough. It wasn’t a sin, but as a public figure, Mira could be going through some uncomfortable situation right now and he felt bad for what had just happened. He wondered who exactly leaked this, because no one else knew about their relationship, except Mirabel and she wouldn’t do that to her sister. He had returned the phone and walked out, feeling anger, deep inside of him.And his secretary followed him to his office, hoping that he wouldn’t lash out at her. Kyle slammed his fist on the table, feeling angry. Kyle didn’t go home and stayed in his office until the next day. His secretary walked in early, trying not to get on his nerves.“Good morning, sir.” She greeted him, trying not to sound happy or sort.“How did this happen, right under my nose?” He said, with anger.Katherina couldn’t say anything as she was speechless because

    Mirabel was heartbroken and as she drove off, she screamed so loud.“Screw you! How could you do this to me?” She shouted in anger and threw the flower at the already gone car.She moved closer to the river bank and rested on the rail and started crying.“Why would Brandon do this to me? After trusting him so much and doing my best for him, he left.” She muttered under her breath, with hot tears rolling down her cheek.Then she headed towards a bar and then sat down.“Bartender, give me two bottles of any strong alcohol you have here.” She said, not minding the way he looked at her.The bartender dropped the two bottles before her and returned to attending other customers, waiting. Mirabel gulped down the drink and then she poured a shot for herself and drank again.“That bastard. How dare he fool my sister and I?” She bit her lips in pain and was barely holding back the tears.Then she took five more shots at one go and was beginning to get drunk.“Hey, beautiful miss. I think you ar

    Mira still didn’t have the interest to go to work. There was no way she would be able to face the peering eyes of her colleagues. She was even certain that reporters could be at the company, waiting for her and Kyle, so that they could bombard them with questions.“Mira.” Mirabel called out to her, softly.“You know what, do not bother to try to convince me. I do not know about tomorrow, I could decide to go to work, but today, I do not feel like it. I can’t go to work in this mood and even while things are still hot.” Mira said, then heaved a heavy sigh.“Come on, Mira. Alright, it’s fine. I understand you and you can stay at home today, but tomorrow, make sure that you go to work, okay?” Mirabel said as she stroked Mira’s hair backwards.“We’ll see about that.” Mira said, weakly.Suddenly. Mirabel’s phone rang and she went to the sitting room to check who was calling her and to her surprise, it was Brandon. Seeing his call made every suspicion she had, against him, to disappear. She

    Kyle felt happy with the way things went, last night and when he woke up this morning, he replied Mira's message."What a good day to start work." Kyle said as he stretched, happily.He went to the bathroom and had his bath, then went downstairs to eat breakfast. He nodded his head in satisfaction as he ate the meal. Because he was having a good start for the day, everything seemed so nice to him. If he was given a meal which wasn't really delicious, to him, it was going to be delicious.Then he checked his phone while eating to see if Mira had replied him."Why hasn't she replied me? She ought to have woken up, since it is a work day. Or she is still busy, preparing for work?" He assumed, then dropped his phone to finish up his food.After he was done with eating, he entered his car and checked his phone, but still no reply from Mira."Now, she ought to have seen it. Or would it be cool if I went to her house and pick her up? She might have gone to the office." Kyle slammed his wrist

    "What's going on?" Mirabel asked out of concern as she saw the way Mira was looking at her phone."I think something is wrong, Mirabel." Mira said, trying to calm down, hoping she wasn't in great trouble."What's wrong, Mira?" Mirabel continued to ask, worrying that something was really wrong.Mira checked online and screamed as she saw a message sent to her by one of the people she knew. It was a screenshot of an article about her and Kyle. The person didn't screenshot all, so Mira immediately checked online to confirm if it really was a real article that was posted online."Check the internet, Mirabel. I do not understand what I am seeing right now." Mira said, with her hands which were filled with cold sweats.Mirabel gasped as she saw the news. An article about going on a date with Kyle was all over the internet and was even trending. Many comments were there, including hate comments that were directed at her."What the hell? How did this get to the public?" Mirabel exclaimed, loo

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S REVENGE   NEWS TRAVELS FAST

    Mira woke up, she didn't know when she slept off last night. She was really exhausted and when she picked up her phone, she saw a message which was from Kyle, which read:"I slept off yesterday and that's why you didn't see a reply from me. Good morning, sunshine. I am certain that you are awake by now, because I can feel the warm sunlight reaching me over here. Have a nice day, sweetheart."Mira blushed after reading the message. She didn't check any other message because she had seen the only message which turned her whole day into a beautiful thing. It was a really nice thing. Mira went to the bathroom to have her bath, which she took time there, then she went downstairs to watch TV or do anything else to make her day even more fun."How was your night, Mira?" Mirabel asked, from the kitchen."It is one of the best nights I've ever had in life." Mira smiled as she twirled and sat on the couch like a princess."I thought as much. When I checked up on you, you were sleeping soundly."

    As Kyle got to where she was and tried to make her stand, she started laughing and then she clutched her arms around him. “Gotcha!” She giggled, feeling happy that she was able to get him. “So, you tricked me. But that’s cheating.” He said as he stood up. Mira laughed the more. “All you said was to catch you if I can and I can use any method to catch you, since there were no rules, so it isn’t cheating.” Mira closed her eyes in pride and feeling victorious. Kyle laughed at how Mira had outwitted him in the least way he expected. ~ An hour later, they left the beach and went to a street, wearing hoodies, so they won’t be recognized. They ate street food which was really delicious. They also went to a game hub to play games. Mira was happy that she had fun, not just with anyone, but with someone that she had crushed on for years. When it was evening, they both went to a river bank and they had removed their hoodies as no one would see them clearly in the night. The breeze caressed

    Mira was uncomfortable with what Andrew had asked for. She didn’t like the idea of allowing him to give her a ride home as she didn’t want anything that could cause a misunderstanding between her and Kyle.“I’m sorry, I’ll prefer to walk back home on my own.” She said as she tried to avoid eye contact with Andrew.“Why? Is it because you are still feeling weird about the rejection stuff? Or you feel that won’t be a good idea, since you want me to look somewhere else.” He asked as he tried to make eye contact with her.“No, you do not have to think far about this. I just do not need a ride. Try to understand this, Andrew.” Mira said, looking a bit frustrated as she finally looked into his eyes.“I just want to be certain that I have not lost points or make you feel like you do not want to be my friend anymore because of what happened between us.” Andrew said, peering into her eyes like a lost puppy.“No, that’s not how it is. You are still a friend to me. A good friend.” Mira assured a

    I’m glad you aren’t.” Mira responded, pinning her hair to the back of her ear.~They had talked for a while before going back to the office to eat or do any other thing. Although, the conversation seemed platonic at some point, but it was still obvious in some words he said, that he was still very much interested and he sounded like he was still going to make many more attempts.After work that day, Mira went home in excitement and unfortunately, Mirabel was around and was with Brandon.“Brandon? You came today? After all these while.” She rolled her eyes as she joined them in the sitting room.Afterall since she'd decided to play dumb about Brandon being a cheat, she had to act the part as an excited sister-in-law, right? “You do not have to be annoyed. I am so sorry, it has been work taking all my time, but I am here now.” Brandon apologized sincerely, with his palms together that Mira nearly gagged.“It’s fine. You are forgiven.” Mira said, with her eyelids closed in pride. “Mir
