Kylan My night was brief, and morning came faster than I had anticipated. I didn't have much to do besides eating breakfast and staring at the television before me. I had left Cole and my assistant in charge before I left, and I was confident that the two of them could handle things in my absence.After spending a whole hour watching a TV series, I finally got bored enough to leave the hotel. I usually didn't like bothering Lisa during the early hours of the day, but it felt as though I would lose myself if I didn't speak to someone I knew. And unfortunately, she was the only person I was familiar with around these parts. I knew she worked at a breakfast cafe during the early hours of the day, and I wasted no time in showing up to the said cafe. I needed it to feel like a coincidence, so I had skipped having breakfast at the hotel. With a held up head, I walked into the restaurant and immediately caught a glimpse of Lisa while she was serving another customer. She had a bright smil
KatarinaThe last thing I expected was for Jerome to sit and wait for me while I worked. We had taken an hour to tour around the city, and had spent the remaining time in a coffee shop, chatting and learning more about each other. As I had expected, Jerome was a businessman, a successful man at that. I had wanted to ask him if he knew about Kylan Anderson, but decided against it. There was no need to bring up my past now, I was doing my best to run away from it, so bringing it up would do me more harm than good."Are you sure you can wait, my shift doesn't end until four." I reminded Jerome for the umpteenth time, but he didn't seem like he was going to change his mind anytime soon. "I said not to worry, didn't I? I'm off work today, I really have nothing better to do other than this. So don't worry about me, just focus on doing your work, and I'll sit here and wait for you." He replied with a bright smile. It was easy for him to say, but concentrating on work while he was sitting
KylanLisa remained wrapped in my arms, however the moment was taken away when my phone began ringing. I wasn't expecting any calls tonight, but Cole always knew how to disturb me, especially during good moments. At first, I wanted to ignore him, but decided against it. His voice was tense, and every word he spoke was accompanied by a sense of urgency, one that I couldn't ignore. The office was supposed to be closed at this time. It was already a few hours to midnight, but from what Cole said so far, it seemed he was still at the office.From his description, it seemed like we had been robbed, but I really couldn't be sure. Cole hadn't mentioned anything yet, all he said was there were signs of breaking and entering, and Cole wouldn't be the type to joke about something this serious.Gently, I pulled away from our warm embrace, "I have to go," I said, regret lacing my words. "It's an emergency at the office.""What happened, what's going on?" Lisa asked, her eyes filled with concern
Kylan I thought that after the events of last night that I would loathe Lisa the moment I laid eyes on her. My company's success was possibly hanging in the balance, my life was potentially at the verge of ruin, and it was all because she had refused to marry me. However, standing before her, I felt no hatred. If anything, seeing her smile calmed me more than I had expected. Her smile was energetic and healing, and each time life came to those exhausted eyes of hers, I felt the need to kiss and bed her until she could walk no more."What's going on with you today? You don't look so well, is everything okay?" Lisa asked the moment she realized I was spacing out, and wasn't smiling like I always did on a regular basis. I couldn't tell her about what had happened, there was absolutely no need for her to know about it, she couldn't help in any way after all.Mustering up a smile, I decided to go with the most cliche lie I could think up on the spot. "I had a hectic night, work took mos
KatarinaI wanted to chase after Jerome, but I decided against that. I could tell something was bothering him, and it wasn't just work.I couldn't really tell what it was, and only then did I realize that I have not really been involved in Jerome's life as much as I thought. The only thing I knew about him at the moment was his name and job, I had no idea how he worked and the other things. He was basically still a mystery to me, and I had no idea how to feel about that. Unlike me Jerome knew almost everything about me. The only thing he didn't know was my real name, and the fact that I was on the run from kylan Anderson. Aside from that, I was basically an open book to him. I rose from where I sat, my appetite already lost. I wanted to know more about him, I wanted to be more involved in his life. If what we had was real, then it was an absolute necessity. I called for the waiter, and settled the bill before leaving the cafe. I was no longer in the mood for anything, the only thin
Kylan The first person I met at the door of my office was Christopher, and like always I could tell he was up to no good. "What are you doing here?" I inquired as I pushed past him and entered my office. I could tell he had arrived minutes ago, and without doubt, he had clearly come to see me. "I heard your company got robbed, came to share my sympathies with you." Christopher replied before settling down on the couch without my permission. He was definitely bold for someone who knew I didn't like him very much. He was pushing his luck consistently, and one of these days I planned on breaking his jaw. "Your sympathy isn't needed here, so you're free to leave." I answered with my finger pointed towards the door. However, Christopher didn't budge, even anything he made himself more comfortable on the leather couch, a maniacal smile playing at the end of his lips. "Let's not get things confused here, Kylan. You may be in charge of this company, but you don't own it, so stop trying t
KatarinaEverything seemed slow, even the hours were crawling, and I couldn't fully concentrate no matter how hard I tried. The fact that I basically knew nothing about Jerome was driving me insane, and there was nothing that I could do about it. I couldn't exactly confront him about it, especially not when I was not even being truthful about myself. "What's on your mind Lisa? Is Mr handsome not coming today?" Ella whispered in my ear, jolting me back to reality. It was impossible to have a moment to myself while she was still around. It was annoying, but I loved it that way. Ella knew how to distract me from the thoughts that threatened to consume me.Looking at her now, I felt that it was probably best to have her opinion on what I should do next. I didn't like making my matters public, but this once I'd make an exception for Ella. "I don't think he's coming today." I answered before mustering up a little sad smile. "That's sad, I haven't seen him in a while, you two have really
KylanI left the office after completing the day's task. I was exhausted, hungry, and above all, angry. Everything was going downhill and I just couldn't get a grasp of anything at the moment. I wasn't in control of my own life at the moment, and it was slowly driving me insane. "You're leaving so soon? Won't you wait for the police to arrive with today's report." Cole asked, and my frustration only grew at the sound of his questions. "No, I'll leave you to handle that." I replied with a dismissive wave. I was already getting a migraine from thinking about everything that was happening. The last thing I wanted now was to wait an hour only to receive news that nothing had been done to apprehend the culprits. Hearing another bad news would definitely drive me off the edge, and I had no plans of losing myself in public. "Are you okay man? You don't look so good." Cole asked, his voice laced with concern and curiosity. I managed a smile before replying. "I'm fine, just stressed from t
