Taylor spent four hours at the gym like she always did. When she was done, she realized Ramos was nowhere to be found, so she crossed over to the café shop opposite the gym house to have lunch while waiting for him.

Parked on the road in front of a restaurant was a Mercedes.

The passenger in the back rolled down the window and the person inside scoffed at the peaceful sight of her munching through a hamburger while having her eyes pinned on the book she was reading.

Elizabeth had a phone pressed to her left ear as she watched Taylor, "She's been doing this for the past two months?"

"She has breakfast with him before he goes to work and before she goes to the gym house, and has dinner with him when he returns," the person mumbled, her voice coming out as a whisper.

Elizabeth was silent for a moment before she asked again, "Is that all?"

The person from the other end responded immediately, "They've not spoken more than three lines to each other in a long time. In fact, I'd say she ha

    That night, Andrew didn’t come back to the house. And he still wasn’t home the next morning.So Taylor sat in the dining room having breakfast alone. But a few minutes after she started, she heard the door open and after a few seconds of hearing his footsteps, the man’s suffocating presence filled the dining room as he strutted in and sat down. Then began eating.After what seemed like forever, she dropped her cutlery and looked up at him.She was about to say something when she noticed the bloodstains on his collar. Her first instinct was to ignore it whilst praying it was him, but when she recalled what she had learned in meditation classes and what she read in the textbooks.While Andrew and everyone else thought she had finally become submissive to him, she simply just came to terms with the fact that going head-on against him won’t do her any good.He was stronger than her, richer, and more influential. Furthermore, she didn’t have anyone to stand up to him if word got out about

    “Here! Here she is!” Geraldine immediately jumped forward and pointed at Taylor.The chubby woman turned towards their direction. When her eyes met Taylor's, she immediately immediately began rushing towards her. However, as she got to where she was standing and raised her hand to slap her across the face, somebody suddenly appeared in front of her and shielded her from the slap, receiving it on his back instead. Seeing the back of a man, the three women in front of Taylor gasped and looked around in disbelief. “What is this? So Bezalel Meyer isn’t the only one you’re after? Who else did you get to fall for your charms!” Sophia lashed out at her as soon as she regained her composure. Emily turned to the man who still had his back to them and advised him in a self-righteous tone, “Hey, if you know what’s good for you, get away from this woman as fast as possible or risk ruining your reputation.”Gael, who had stood in front of Taylor and shielded her from the chubby woman, turned a

    Andrew was standing at the door and because of how tall he was, the sunlight penetrating in from the window by his side, shone brightly on the lower part of his face, making it impossible for anyone to look into it. However, when he stepped out of the sunlight, they quickly realized they couldn’t see his face not because of the sunlight shining on it, but because he had on a mask which stopped just above his nose. Bezalel Meyer snapped out of his shocked state and hurried towards Andrew, “Mr. Radford, I didn’t know you were coming. You should’ve called in advance to tell me you were coming so I’d prepare a befitting welcome for you.” “Mr. Radford? Who is that?” Emily Carter blurted out thoughtlessly as she craned her neck to see the person’s face only to realize he was putting on a mask. Andrew clasped his hands behind his back and glanced at Bezalel with a blank look on his face. “I didn’t think there was any need to since my wife works out here. I was in the area and I thought

    Taylor attended the interview as scheduled and got through it. She was called by the interviewer the very next day and told she passed the interview and got the job. When she arrived at the company on monday the following week, she was handed her company ID card and led to her desk. She was a junior consultant. The lowest position in the department. Basically, she was below everyone which meant she’d be at the beck and call of everyone. When she got to her desk, there were already piles of paperworks waiting for her to tend to them on her table. Taylor had just taken her seat when another person waltzed to her desk and dumped a big pile of reports on it. “Newbie, I need you to go through these reports on your table. Particularly the feedbacks from the companies whom we offer security services to in three hours.” Then she turned around and left without another word. Taylor reached out to feel the bulky pile of reports and couldn’t help batting her eyes in disbelief. “I’m to go

    In tbe third floor’s hallway, Taylor’s eyes darted around the place in confusion after hearing him. Poor? Who grew up poor? “Hey, what are you doing standing there? Ella said to tell you she doesn’t have the whole day!” The shrill voice of someone in her department drew her out of her reverie. The man had long left, but she was still standing in the hallway staring blankly at where he previously stood.She hurried back to her department and to her desk where she gave the photocopies to Ella Holland.When she arrived, Ella raised her eyes to look at her and half shouted, “What took you so long? I clearly told you I didn’t have the whole day!” Something snapped in Taylor at being shouted on, but she just clenched her jaw tightly and continued stretching the photocopies towards Ella. Biting down the harsh retort trying to make it way out of her mouth, she met Ella’s eyes and smiled at her faintly, “My apologies, I had problems with the printer, so someone came to help me.” Ella sno

    Taylor left for the restroom as soon as Samuel left. While she was inside the stall, she heard some staffs discussing outside. “Research and Development Department are trying to come up with this new software, but each attempt has all failed. We even got to find out we’re not the only ones attempting to build this software.” “Apparently, other companies have tried to but failed for some reasons, now I have to go through the feedback the users gave which led to it failing to know what to do.” “The reports are just so much that I don’t think I can keep up since I have to plan my son’s birthday which is coming up this weekend.” “You still go through feedbacks by yourself?” “Isn’t that what everyone does?” “You poor thing. Haven’t you heard of the junior consultant in the Consultant Department? She came a month ago and everyone’s been going to her to go through reports, statements, accounting and even the company’s finances.” “She’s very good at it and even offers good feedbacks. S

    Everyone silently watched as the surveillance cameras were mounted and the people from the Technology Department all left.After they left, the people from Consultant Department just stood at a distance glaring heatedly at Taylor. Now that there were two surveillance cameras, they didn’t dare to act bold anymore. However, Anna Coleman scoffed. “He helped you with the printer and he even brought you lunch because he didn’t see you in the cafeteria. Are you bragging right now?” “Does it make you feel better that someone like him noticed that someone like you exists?” When Taylor didn’t respond, she grabbed her by the shoulder and shook her fervently as she yelled into her face, “Don’t keep silent! Answer me!” Ella subconsciously glanced towards the direction of the cameras and whispered to Anna through clenched teeth. “Anna, don’t do anything here. The surveillance cameras were just mounted, I’m sure the higher ups have their eyes on it at the moment.” Anna listened to her and sto

    One of them pulled out his phone and went to a corner to make a phone call. He returned less than thirty seconds later to lead her inside the club. The day was still bright for there to be any party, so she wasn’t surprised to see the place quite empty. Asides from the two bartenders at the counter, some heavily tattooed boys and girls lying on the couch unconscious and the rest patrolling the place with lit cigarettes in-between their lips. Sergei Petrovich had a scantily dressed girl on his thighs when Elizabeth was led into the private room he was in. Despite her coming in, he continued his business with the girl. Elizabeth took her seat and watched them in silence with a straight face until the man zipped up his zipper and nudged his head at the girl to leave. He then got up to pour himself a drink. As he walked towards the counter, she couldnd help noticing he winced with every step he took. He picked up bottle of whiskey and two glasses before walking back to her. “Siste

    Inside the elevator heading downstairs, Taylor and Samuel stood in silence. He turned to her and questioned, “He called?” She hummed, “Mhm.” “What did he want?”“He just said to come back home.” “If that was the only thing he said, why did you take so long?” The man frowned slightly. “My father called after he hung up. The Holts will be visiting the Fairchilds residence tomorrow. He called to remind me in advance not to be late.” “Are you sure you don’t need me to come?” “Who would I tell them you are? My family doesn’t like me very much and neither does my ex’s family. If I show up with a man who isn’t my husband in place of my husband, they’d say I’ve been cheating on him.” “You’re telling me you plan to face six people alone. At least tell your husband. He’s a proud man, I bet he wouldn’t want you to be in the same room with your ex.” “What difference will it make? He’s not going to come. He’s never attended any event with me. I’ve always gone alone. A family event is not

    After agreeing with Samuel’s terms with, Taylor went back to work like nothing happened. She paid no attention to what the people at work said about her and how they treated her. She just turned a blind eye to everything. Samuel took her under his wings and attended pitch meetings with her where he gave her the opportunity to pitch her ideas to the rest of the directors whenever they gathered for a meeting. In two months, every idea she pitched, got approved by the board of directors and rolled in hundreds of millions in profit for the company. She was soon promoted from a junior consultant to a a partner, a post second only to the Managing Director in the whole of the Consultant Department. The evening after the 5th proposal she pitched to the company got approved, an elated Samuel took the entire consultant department out for dinner. Samuel was grilling their meat as usual. When he was done, he picked up a plate and filled it with me before passing it to Taylor. “Thank you.”

    Andrew left hours before she woke up and she had dinner in silence like she did the day before. Gael drove her to work and when she entered the reception, she realized no one was staring at her like they had done yesterday.They were rather all nervous and anxious. When she got to her department, no one still paid any attention to her. “Hey, have you seen the news about Daniel Holt? I heard he’s currently unconscious but now out of harm’s way.” “Why do you care about news about Daniel Holt when there’s a more pressing issue?” “Huh? Pressing issue? Is the company going bankrupt?” “Not that kind of pressing issue. Listen closely. A reliable source from the Media Department overheard that President Radford’s wife is working in the company.” “How is that possible? We would’ve long heard of it the moment she came in.”“That’s why it’s weird. I remember he got married and the internet carried the news and the name of his wife, now I searched up the news about his marriage on the inter

    Taylor felt uncomfortable and took a step backward. Then parted her lips to say, “Mr. Sanchez, I’m afraid I have to-“ tell you I’m married. She never got to complete her sentence as he placed a finger over her lips and hushed her thinking she was about to reject him without giving him any chance. “Don’t be in such a hurry to turn me down.” “My father may be a shareholder in this company, but that doesn’t mean I’m the director of the Consultant Deparmtent because of his influence m.” “Just like you, I’ve worked hard to get to where I am today. And I promise to continue working hard to take care of you and our family in the future.” “I’ll let you do whatever you want and I won’t let my family boss you around because of your background.” “When we get married, I’ll be in a better position to protect you from these bullies at work. So don’t be so quick to reject me and think it through, alright?” When he realized she wasn’t lookkng at him, but was staring at something behind him wi

    Taylor woke up early the next morning and the first thing she did was check her phone to know what was going on with Daniel. She found a live video of the hospital and clicked on it. Elizabeth’s face immediately popped into her sight wearing the doctor’s white lab coat under her sleeping wears. It was a live interview with a lot of reporters as swarming around the hospital. “We waited for you here all night but there was no sight of you. We’re all very well aware the surgery only lasted three hours and you were not supposed to be at work yesteday.” “So I have two questions for you. Why were you at Beating Hearts Hospital? You came to the hospital in your sleeping wear, were you preparing to sleep before the accident happened? If yes, why were you in such a hurry to leave the house that you forgot to change out of it?” The camera zoomed in on Elizabeth’s face. The bags underneath her eyes were now obvious and the fatigue on her face couldn’t be mistake. In the chat room, Taylor

    Inside the hotel room, awkward silence was broken when someone checked her phone to see the trending news. “Huh? Someone got into an accident? Daniel Holt got into a life threatening hit and run accident. No way!” “What? Daniel Holt? Has the culprit been caught? How is he?” Almost immediately, everybody whipped out their phones to see what was going on. After scrolling it for a moment, one of them heaved in relief. “Elizabeth Fairchild is in the ER with him already, I’m relieved.” “Honestly. She’s so good at her job that I can’t help but feel at ease after hearing she’s the one operating on him.” “She treated my grandfather once and he said he hadn’t felt much better. Ever since then, we changed our family’s doctor to her.” “The police report says he was driving drunk which was why he couldn’t get out of there quickly but it just looks to me like someone tried to kill him. I mean, look at how gruesome the scene of the accident.” “I know, right? Four trucks came up from all fou

    Anna’s expression changed drastically as she turned to Samuel beside her. Samuel ignored the curious eyes on him as he went ahead to grill the meat in silence. Anna swallowed a lump and glanced at Taylor in irritation. “Junior consultant, it’s your first time eating such an expensive dish. Despite how it looks to you, you should take a bite from it. As for grilled meat, you can always eat them every other day.”Taylor sensed the irritation in her voice and smiled at her apologetically, “My apologies, it’s not exactly the food. I’m just allergic to peanut. And it seems to be seared all over my meal.” “If it were an allergy I could control, I would’ve tried to take a bite from it. However, that isn’t the case. So I’d hate to bother everyone by having them see me break out in hives before spending the rest of their evening transporting me to the hospital.” “What are you apologizing for? Allergies can’t be controlled. You can’t eat peanut, but you can eat meat, can’t you?” Samuel but

    That evening, every staff in the company were driven to a 5 star hotel called Rosé Hotel using the company’s shuttle bus. However, the first set of people to arrive were staffs from the Consultant Department. Samuel Sanchez left the group when they got to the reception and went up to the receptionist to tell her of his reservation. “Hello, good evening. I made a reservation this afternoon for a dinner for more than 30 people.” “What’s the name, sir?” The receptionist asked as she settled her fingers on the keyboard. “Samuel Sanchez.” The keys of the keyboard began clacking the very next second before she stopped, a puzzled look appearing on her face and glanced up at him. “I’m afraid there’s no reservation under that name, sir. Are you sure you made a reservation before coming? You might think you did but actually forgot to.”Samuel shook his head at her suggestetion at what might’ve happened and whipped out his phone to show her his call logs. “No, I’m very sure of it.

    In Andrew Solution, Taylor pushed the whispering going around the company to the back of her mind and focused on her work. When it was a few minutes from when she closed from work, someone walked to her desk. “Junior consultant, the department director is holding a department dinner this evening. Everyone is mandated to be there.” “A department dinner?” Taylor repeated and raised her head to look at the person, already planning to reject the offer only to see her hurriedly walking away. Three minutes after she left, Taylor picked up her phone and opened her phone book. Andrew had made her delete every number she had saved. So the only number she now had was his. So she stared at his phone number in her phone book for several minutes. It’d be rude of her not to go to the department dinner, but she’d have a worse fate in store for her if she attended the dinner without Andrew’s permission. After hesitating for a long time, she tapped the number and called. She listened to it in t
