Livia Washington's Point of View

I was late the next day upon the small argument I had with Archer yesterday. I nearly wanted to cold the guard earlier who was fixing my door but upon realizing he was an angel sent by God to come and wake me up.

Booking a cab was pretty hard not to mention it was already late and I have no car I own so it was a bit of a hassle for me since it's thirty minutes away from the apartment I was in.

Fortunately, our manager was in a good mood and didn't ask when she saw me coming along inside.

"You're late," May said, having a huge grin on her face.

I scratched the back of my neck and nodded. "Uh-huh. I woke up late earlier but still managed to arrive here after ten minutes."

May nodded her head and bid her farewell. I was about to pass through my boss when suddenly, she held my hand and then stopped me.

"Livia, can you get the jewels I had on my table?" she asked, a bit in hurry.

I thought that she would scold me but I was wrong. "W-Which tabl

Everyone in the office took out their bags, opened them, and put all their things on the surface while I stood, crossing my arms, proud of myself that I didn’t steal it.It took awhile before Miss Rosa stood in front of me, ready to open my bag when I did it myself. Miss Rosa was the one who was taking my things out of my bag while I stood watching."I told you, Miss Rosa. I wasn’t the person who stole your jewelry." I told her.Taliah and her friends looked at each other. Upon watching our manager extract everything, she stopped halfway, gaping at me as she pulled out her hand, picking up an unfamiliar bangle bracelet in her hands.My eyes widened.

    Livia Washington’s Point of View "I’ve texted you!" My friend, Janice, can’t stop saying I was ignoring her. I stood up and folded my pullover until elbow before taking the cutter. Currently, we’re inside a Korean restaurant that serves a lot of Korean food. Frankly speaking, I felt bad last night, and the feeling I had the whole day remained inside me until now. I’ve been craving Korean foods or anything that could make me feel good. Gladly, it made my red and white cells good at the same time. Taking a bite of the baby octopus made me smile, though it was a bit spicy and had a touch of sweetness. "Haven’t you eaten for days?" Janice inquired while looking at me with judgment in her eyes. I sneered before continuing to eat. "Just let me. I’m stressed.""Today’s Wednesday. Don’t you have work? Your mad husband would attack you with his awful words again," she said, a little bit worried after dipping the pork in her sauce.A heavy sigh came out of my lips before I put the food awa

    Livia Washington's Point of ViewAunt Jess was furious after I told her what had happened earlier. We’re in their house talking with their family about the agreement they had with the landlord, who happened to vanish in just a blink of an eye. "So you signed the contract without reading it carefully, Uncle Bryan?" I asked Janice’s father. Uncle Bryan was playing with his fingers; he seemed down. "I didn’t, the landlord was swaying me a lot and told me about what the contract says." He said I shouldn’t look at it but sign directly. "Since we really want and need this place, I signed." Aunt Jess groaned as she began to massage her temple. Everyone seemed down as well as Janice and his sister. Before the man completely left, he gave us a copy of the proof they have, along with the other documents supporting it. I stood up, trying to cheer for their family so it could quickly lighten up the mood. "Don’t worry, everyone. Janice and I will talk to their boss directly and explain what

    Livia Washington's Point of View"P-Personal assistant?" Ajax took out a small business card from his pocket. He lifted his hand and gave it to me, which I quickly accepted. Now, his name, the address of the company, as well as his contact number, were intact. He was calmly sitting in his chair, waiting for my answer. "But you have your rude secretary. I can't find the reason for you to seek a personal assistant, Mr.” I said, emphasizing the word rude. Ajax craning his neck, he put his two elbows on each side of his swivel chair whilst staring at me. "Secretaries and personal assistants have the same jobs. Secretaries work in the office, whilst personal assistants derive from the word itself. The work you will be dealing with was affiliated with me personally." His clarification about the job was somehow helpful. Well, I'm just stupid not to find out quickly, but instead, I asked for the differences. I stood straight, trying to think of any alternative way, but there was none.

    Ajax Steel's Point of View Helios, my friend came inside my office with a huge smile on his face. He seemed happy, however, he wasn't always like this so I was shocked when he visited. Normally, I was the one who came to his office but he visited me. "How's Andre?" he asked the moment he sat down on my sofa, pouring a small portion of alcohol in his hand. I spoke, "Good." "How about you?" "Good." I answered without a few more words. Helios' eyebrows twitched, it seems like he was some sort of curious to things which doesn't make sense. "Just Good? Don't you have any news you wanna share?" I have, actually. But I'm thinking whether to tell him or not. Right after what happened between Livia and I that night, I think of her each day. As I was standing in front of my huge glass walls and the view in front of me, I veered around to take a glimpse of my friend whilst both my hands were inside my pocket. Helios was sitting on my sofa, his thighs were crossed while his one hand was

    Livia Washington's Point of ViewThe first day of the week has been the irking day for me since I was in grade school. I refused to wake up early just because I had to attend school early in the morning and then I got it until now I'm working. I hate Mondays. It's not really my thing, believe me. Especially when teachers asked for students to wear their uniforms often during that day and I just realized bosses require a dress code as well. Fortunately, I had my alarm clock with me who woke me up the moment it rang. As I was preparing my food after I took a bath, it was when I received a message from an unknown number. It wasn't an unknown number entirely as we had a past conversation. I hoisted my eyebrows when I saw it was Louis, Ajax's secretary who dropped me off at 6:23 in the morning. "Make sure to come into the office before the call time. Please come to the office before 7 to make a good impression on your new boss. Besides, you'll take over my work if I can't come to the

    Livia Washington's Point of ViewHe had a bunch of work to do. On my own estimation, I bet I've been standing here for quite an hour now, assisting him to sign the papers while I flip it all over. It's not that I was complaining; I did this back then to our manager, who was kind of busy as well. "Livia," he called out my name in a low tone. I jolted in shock and stood up straight. "Yes—I mean, sir?" He took a deep breath and put down the pen. "It's lunch. You can go eat at the cafeteria." My eyes widened. "Is the lunch free?" "Yeah." Since I got late, I immediately got my bag, which was on top of the table, and was on my way outside when I froze on my location as Ajax's words ceased me. "You're coming out right away?" he asked, hoisting his eyebrows. I blinked my eyes thrice. I was about to put my bag back on the top of the table when he spoke. "No need. Just take your break and be sure to come back at 1:30. I’ll be having an important meeting back then." As soon as I got ou

    Livia Washington’s Point of View I was completely in the dark about the reprimand that he was going to issue. After I had texted him that I was having stomach trouble, I went outside the building and sat on a bench underneath a tree while eating ice cream. I was been here after I had also told him that I had a bad stomach. Despite the fact that I instructed Rue to convey the information to them, I was uncertain as to whether or not Ajax had knew it due to his initial response to me over the phone. Vanilla is my favorite flavor, and ice cream is my comfort food when I need to relax and chill down. When I have a lot of things going through my head, I often turn to the food that I eat as a way to distract myself for a couple of minutes. After all, eating that makes us feel better makes it easier to meditate. The penalty that Ajax had mentioned to me over the phone continued to irritate me. I was late earlier, and he was unhappy about it; but, when the lunch arrived, I didn't mind the

    Third Person's Point of View"Are you seriously telling me that now, Ajax? When the event start any moment from now?!" I blurted out as he was behind Livia, caressing her small waist and lifting the dress she was wearing. "Just a quick fuck, please. Just a quick one." Ajax couldn't stop himself from claiming Livia again. Today, the christening of their baby will going to happen and anytime soon, the visitors will arrive one by one especially when everything was settled yet she was cornered inside their room and he was asking for a good fuck. In just a span of a few minutes, Livia already got wet. Her hands are on the table while in front of them is a mirror. Livia could see their reflection on it, especially Ajax's broad shoulders. He was staring at her straight in the eyes through their reflection, and each push and pull Ajax made Livia moan. "Careful, baby! My dress might get torn!" Livia asserted, trying to remove Ajax's hands on her chest. It was a limited edition dress from

    Livia’s Point of View ***MONTHS LATER***The whole baby section was filled with women finding better and cute clothes for their a month old baby and above. Anyhow, my eyes set on all the things that I bought at the shop where Steffany and I went to. Samantha and I already gave birth but she was busy with her child. I gave her an invitation to shop with me along with Janice but she couldn’t since her due date is near. It was when Steffany and I were the only ones who shopped whilst Ajax’s mom, Aunt Andrea, is the one who’s looking out to our kids. “That would be $2,789 in total, ma’am.” The cashier asserted. “Here.”“I received $3,000.”Paying everything using my own money was beyond my expectation. I used all of it to buy my children’s needs when Ajax was giving me a monthly budget but I didn’t spend most of it. Instead, I stock it for Andre’s studies as he will begin his grade school where Ajax graduated. Steffany and I have gotten close. Andre doesn’t even want to let her go but

    Livia’s Point of View “I can do it!” I asserted whilst taking the plate to the sink. Ajax groaned. It was when his eyes shut directly at the maids who were in the dining area. “What’s the purpose of having a lot of mates when I’m paying them well but you’re doing household chores? Damn it!” he exclaimed before combing his hair using his fingers. I rolled my eyes, didn’t let him do whatever he wanted but instead, I went overboard and then halted him. “Now you’re cursing at me, huh?”His expressions melted. It was when he tried to reach for my elbows but to my anger, I gave him the plate I was holding forcefully whilst our family were watching us together. I was mad at Ajax! “Fine, do it yourself then! Curse at me again and I’ll throw you out of this penthouse!” I irritatedly asserted. “That’s not what I meant! I’m not cursing at you!” My eyes widened hearing the tone of his voice. Now, I can’t imagine he’s shouting at me. My jaw dropped as a couple of silence surpassed us both wh

    Ajax’s Point of View “Where are they?” I consulted my friend, Caspian, who was in charge and had his men behind us. The warehouse was dark, but we could see some men around it and seeing that there was only a light on the second floor made me clench my jaw. Before we came here, we made sure that we had a plan beforehand. Otherwise, we’ll get screwed and I can’t risk Livia getting into trouble and severe conditions. “It seems like they are on that spot.” I heard one of them say, “Move quietly.” the leader of this operation stated. Our initial plan was to come inside but let a spy go first to see what’s the condition. Archer was also here, along with the man he brought that literally came from the army. I don’t even know why the fuck I approved of him meddling with this thing when I can handle it myself. However, I just let him be because I could sense his sincerity as long as he wouldn’t execute something that might irritate me. “Use this, Ajax.” Caspian said, giving me the bullet

    Archer’s Point of View My blood boils. I was raging in anger seeing the man across me was Archer. He has been on my sight for the past few weeks and frequently joins meetings where I was also there.The moment that the meeting ended, many people started to leave until it was only between Archer and I inside the conference room. I was about to leave when Rue hurriedly came inside the conference room. "Ready the car. We'll go somewhere else." I stated whilst looking coldly at him. "You can't leave, sir. We received very devastating news," he muttered with such worry in her eyes. "Livia disappeared. It was seen in the CCTV that she was kidnapped and the driver was their ally. It seems like Gianna was a spy and we didn't know she would attack us like this!" My jaw dropped. Everything about me crashed knowing Livia vanished. Archer and I couldn't believe that he wanted to conduct an investigation and told me to wait but I didn't wait so I opposed him. Livia is my woman. She's the love

    Livia’s Point of View My body was not in its best condition the moment I moved. I feel dizzy… my body was sore as I couldn’t move from where I was. Slowly opening my eyes was the horrific thing I did after the blur vision was set aside. Terrifying feelings crept within my body. Realizing I was inside a cell sent goosebumps seeing the location where I currently was being imprisoned is for those evil who deserve to be here. My feet and my hands were tied whilst the floor was creeping cold to touch my bareback. I took every chance I had to stand up, ogling at every corner I am with and finally seeing a shadow of a woman made me burst in anger. “Take her out.” Her cold gestures made each man from nowhere open the cell where I was. The smell of the place stinks as if I was in a warehouse that was full of dead rats. Gianna showed up in the dark, bearing heavy make up whilst polished well with her not so short elegant dress. Her hair was tied up, whilst she had dark eyeshadows on her e

    Livia’s Point of View Staying at home is the most boring thing I’ve ever done for weeks now but at least, it'll make us safe and sound after the countless death threats Gianna is giving me. We know it came from her. The death threats are horrifying especially when I'll just wake up one day to find that there was a box outside the penthouse with a dead rat on it. Horrifying, isn't it? Ajax and I became extra careful especially when it comes to our son, Andre. After Ajax and I fixed our family, he told me to move in completely with him. Andre was happy, he was also pressuring Ajax and me to give him another sibling which makes my cheeks burn each time he says that. Ajax told me everything I should know. He apologized to those days that he was absent whilst I cried myself to sleep thinking about us. I had no choice, I couldn’t get in touch with him and Ajax wouldn't answer his phone. I overthink a lot… but all of the pain I felt has been switched into something more beautiful. “Are

    Livia’s Point of ViewI was left dumbfounded whilst Ajax was in front of me. I tried my best to cast my emotions away but I couldn’t. I missed him… I longed for his touch and the kisses we shared together. Looking straight at his eyes makes everything deep inside me to throbb. How many days have we not seen each other? Five days? A week? Two? Damn. “I want to a-apologize first.” I muttered solemnly. “It's not my intention to keep everything to you. I was just waiting for the right time. But if you are really mad, I understand and I have no intention of complaining. Of course, you have the right to know everything. After all, I lied to you despite knowing the truth…" I muttered whilst playing with my fingers. God knows how nervous I am right now. This conversation seemed to be in demand, and both of us really need to talk about this otherwise, we'd lose everything that we both built. Ajax wasn't speaking. He was just letting me squeal my sentiments whilst we're inside our son's priva

    Livia’s Point of View I rushed to the hospital without even drinking, eating or even washing my face. I wanted to get angry knowing neither Gianna and Ajax were there for Andre and thinking that Ajax wasn’t there makes me pissed. Andre was rushed to the hospital but Ajax didn’t even go there for his child. His nanny, Steffany, told me that Ajax wasn't answering her call and didn’t even go home last night. “Really? What about Gianna? She's a very irresponsible mother! She should be with Andre 24/7 knowing she was his mother!” I said whilst my blood was boiling. Andre was sleeping in his bed when I came here. Steffany was worried about Andre. He was sick, he caught coughs and colds waiting for his father to come home but he ended up getting a fever. I was beyond pissed when I thought of Gianna who wasn't doing anything just to be here. It was when my hand drifted to his arms that has bruises on it. My jaw clenched seeing that part of his arms and foot were turning purple whilst som
