Harriet’s POV Knowing what will happen in the future is one of my biggest strength. I knew what to avoid and the possible best choice to choose. However, if Reese would also know that future as well, then that’s a big problem.[“It is so weird that I heard words that I did not remember seeing or hearing before. It is like a deja vu of something I did not see. Is it because I did not sleep that well last night?”]According to her, she saw and heard words that exactly happened in the original future. If she’s so sure that it is true, then she wouldn’t tell this to me. Basically, she’s confused.“I think she’s starting to remember things bit by bit,” I murmured while standing in front of the mirror inside my room in Wyatt’s mansion.If Reese remembered all things from the original future, then it will help us know who really killed grandpa. However, she can also hide the fact that she remembered all and used that in her own benefits.She will find out that I also came from the future.“
Third Person’s POV Inside the limousine, Harriet is thinking about the news she heard directly from Reese and when she had dinner with her and Astell.Her father said that it was Zion who offered himself as Reese’s partner for the upcoming birthday party of Harriet next week.Reese looks so happy that Zion would be her partner and the fact that it was Zion who initiated this plan.Harriet is not certain about Zion’s intention for doing this. However, she had a guess that it has something to do with what she said to Cassius before. Harriet shared Cassius that there are certain scenarios of the original future which should happen to help them find out the killer.‘Did Cassius tell Zion about his engagement to Reese?’ she thought.She will know the answer once she met Cassius in the Fantell company.Today, she and Cassius had to check the clothes that they will wear during the event. Harriet is on her way to visit her fake boyfriend as she thought of questions and topic to discuss.Not
The four froze like statues after they saw Cassius held Harriet’s hand and pulled her away. It felt as if they saw a dramatic scene right in front of their eyes. “I think, I will pull back what I’ve said before,” Many murmured, still staring at the direction where the couple went. “I won’t say that Harriet suits Director Zion more.” “Didn’t he just pull her away after holding her hands and saying that he does not want rumors to hurt his girlfriend?” Jaymee mumbled. Cassius did not directly say that. But for them, it has the same meaning as: ‘Don’t you dare match her up with another man because I’ll get jealous and get hurt if she face trouble due to that rumors.’ Women have just broad imaginations when it comes to men’s words. “And he was so manly. Like a knight in shining armor,” Haidee said. Mario looked at the three single women and he thinks they are living in another fantasy. “What’s romantic about that?!” Mario complained. The three glared at him. “There is no creepier
Cassius and Harriet finished early in checking the clothes they will wear during the birthday party event. They both exited the boutique. Cassius was gawking at Harriet. He noticed that she sudden went aloft, and he wondered why. ‘Did I do anything wrong?’ he asked himself. Just a moment ago, he told her that she looks great and he tucked her hair behind her ears. Aside from that, Cassius did not see anything that would make Harriet sulky. ‘Or maybe, it started when I said to the Fantell employees that the rumor about Zion and Harriet isn’t true,’ he made another guess. While he was busy trying to figure out what’s going in her mind, Harriet took the courage to face him and start a conversation. “It’s time for lunch. What do you want to eat?” Harriet asked and she smiled at him. Cassius noticed that Harriet wanted to act as normal as possible. She does not know that acting like this would make her more odd. “Anything. I’m fine with anything,” Cassius answered. At his response
The two of them left the restaurant without talking as much as they did when they entered the place.It felt like they have opened a Pandora box which they should not see and made their hearts so heavy.It’s early afternoon when they exited the restaurant.Cassius planned to go back in the company, while Harriet will go back to the Wyatt mansion to watch the preparation for her birthday party.But now that they are standing outside the restaurant, both of them haven’t moved a bit.The body guards who watches the two, looked at each other. Even them finds it odd that the two are unresponsive, as if they don’t want to leave the place.“Are you going back to the company?”Finally, Harriet spoke.But Cassius did not reply.“If you need to go back, then we will send you back. After all, I took a lot of your time during your work hours.”“...”“Cassius?”“Can we just go around for few more hours?” he asked, staring at her.She was reeled after his remark and she blinked swiftly while starin
Harriet regretted dancing in front of many people. This is the reason why she does not want to participate anymore and why she wanted to stop Cassius from joining the game. But he did not give her the chance to stop him. Therefore, things came to this. Cassius is now standing on the stage with thunder struck expression after hearing that he had to showcase his talent. ‘He must be regretting right now!’ Harriet worried. Questions like: “Why did you not stop me? Why did you not tell me about the talent portion? And WHY AM I HERE?!” There are all written clearly at Cassius’s face. ‘I really wanted to tell him that but he jolted there like a bull and without looking back!’ Harriet complained inwardly. Harriet can’t do anything right now. All she can do is to pray for him that Cassius won’t embarrass himself with a crazy talent, just like she did in the original future. ‘I am so sorry, Cassius. But please remember that I did not force you to do this,’ Harriet wanted to come clean.
Harriet’s POV All preparation for my birthday party was done. The day of the celebration arrived and everyone in the Wyatt’s mansion is excited for the event. I lifted myself from the empty bed where there is still patch of dark warmth in the sky. Reason is because I need to undergo multiple oration in order to make myself presentable in the party that will take place in the Wyatt’s mansion tonight. I soaked in a water filled with red rose in a bathtub, had someone to put special aroma and soothing oil in my body and then when the sun rose magnificently in the canvas of blue, I was finally allowed to rest for a while and have some light breakfast in my room. I didn’t know that dolling myself even with the help of others will be this tiring. We are not even in the half way done. With this, I remember the times when I had no one to help me to prepare when there’s party in the Fabroa mansion. It was always Reese who did my make-up. But now that I know how hectic it is, I somehow pity
The large hand of the clock seems moving faster for Harriet. It’s not been that long since she heard that Zion and Reese met in the living room and now, it is almost the time for the party to starts. She tried so hard to rest inside her air conditioned room but somehow, things just made her mind messy. In fact, she was unable to sleep well last night. It just that she contemplated a lot on how she’ll face Cassius after the day they went outside to check for their clothes. That day should end with them trying the clothes but they had fun eating outside together, joining games and trying to change the future. It was so fun. So fun that Harriet wonders if she’s allowed to feel this happy whenever she’s with Cassius. What confused her too is that when she heard that Zion came her for Reese, she felt something unexpected. She worries about him rather than feeling jealous to see him together with another woman. Is it because she knows that Zion does not like Reese? Or there’s somethin
