Alissa sat down next to Hope while watching the rest of the movie but her mind was floating elsewhere. After the dreadful almost interesting but somehow charming, she would say, event, Alissa just tap on her face repeatedly to get rid of the blush making her cheek red which happens much time since the bathroom incident.
She remembered hearing Daniel laughing when she was outside of the room and that pisses her off more. He was making things way too awkward and yearn to slap him just once. In which that would make it all better.
However, just thinking about his built features and that hair falling down his face, wet and dark, a part of her was screaming hallelujah! Which begs her the question of why she wasn’t scared of him or traumatized seeing him like th
Being an early riser that he is, Daniel was already awake around 6am in the morning despite today being a Saturday. Being a boss means he have a lot of things that he had to do and there’s no such thing as break if one is pursuing profits that is worth millions. For him, billions. Only billions. A lot of expectation is hanging on his shoulders plus being the son of William Walton does not make that easy. As much as he hate his father, he have huge admiration and respect and love for his grandparents that had worked their ass off to give their children and grandchildren the life they never have.
Her luggage was just prepared and now laying on her bed, opened as Alissa was folding her clothes for the conference. St. Lawrence Book Conference is a big thing for publishers everywhere. Participation from every part of the state and future or aspiring authors is important to generate better profit for the company. It’s an opportunity for Daniel or anyone in the industry to build buzz and relationships with reviewers and bloggers that help to promote boo
After a long argument with the receptionist and almost having the guards joining them, Alissa is now inside the elevator with Daniel standing beside her. Meanwhile, Daniel has a much happier mood compared to Alissa because unlike her, he wanted to have her near him. Same room, same bed, what else can he ask for? Alissa who was fuming with anger ad crossing her hands the entire time to calm herself notice the grin on his face. “What are you smiling about? I
Feeling the warm sensation from the sunlight kissing her skin from the windowpane made her slowly wake up. She yawn and moan from the sensation of stretching her body along the spacious bed and her eyes were closed while doing that. Her hand was stretched out to look for her Samsung A80 as she had always put her phone next to her when she was sleeping. Her head is slowly filled with ideas and ingredients to prepare to make breakfast for Hope. When her hand was moving all over her side and she felt nothing, she opens her eyes and stare at her surrounding.
Earlier, Daniel had told Alissa that the book conference in JW Mariott was a big event that every publishing company in the states and some from other parts of the world would participate in. It was an understatement because it wasn’t just big, it was huge and Alissa could see hundreds, tons of people with a few familiar faces at sight. Celebrities take a picture with their fans while writers are on every booth doing a book signing of their own. Fans can be seen in a long queue just to see them and Alissa saw one of her favorite writers.
Alissa was sitting on the bed with her leg bend and her hand wrapped around her leg. She leans forward while watching the show played in the TV but none of the thing that she was watching isabsorbed into her mind. Her eyes drifted to the bathroom door and the sounds of water running with Daniel whistling from the inside is just too foreign to her. When she recalls the kiss that she has shared with him earlier, at the pool with no one around, she started to
Alissa and Daniel checked out the next evening after a successful meeting and deal with fellow publishers all around the states. The receptionist was talking to Daniel while Alissa sat on the waiting lounge. Sitting on the expensive sofa, she stares at him meticulously. Observing his every move, the way he speaks, smooth body language, interaction with the people around him, and how fine he looks. One doesn’t have to talk to him to know if he’s a wealthy man. His persona just spe
Alissa woke up from the sound of the door slamming. She perks up and straightens her sit when she realizes she was in front of Walton and Ross headquarters. She looks around for Daniel but he wasn’t there. When her eyes turn to the building entrance, she sees Daniel just finish speaking with the guard and enter the building. She wrinkled her forehead, odd at why they were there in th
