Few days have passed away, Tatiana did not say any word to Damon. Instead, she pretended like he doesn't even exist, maintaining distance with him and giving him cold shoulders too.Damon, on the other hand, seems to be suspicious of her sudden silence, but he turned deaf ears to her attitude. Somehow, he likes her silence, at least, she would stop stalking him like she used to.But Tatiana was not the type that quits. Rather, she is just pretending so as not to be suspicious. She will just act like she got nothing on mind and give Damon the wrong idea.Damon's words hurt her like hell, she never, for once, think anyone would ever hurt her that much. She couldn't pinpoint how it happened or what made her feel hurt that much.Though, he did not say any hurtful words apart from rejecting being in a relationship with her, which seems to be a normal thing for her. But still, it hurts so much.“… And the last time I checked, I'm not in any relationship whatsoever with you, Tiana...” His wo
Megan and the kids had barely walked away from where the cotton candies stand, when a familiar voice stopped Megan on her track."Meggie..." The voice called out. It was manly and bass. She need not to be told who it was, there is only one person who calls her that. But still, she can't believe he is there.'What he is doing here any ways?' She asked herself, getting no answer to her question. Turning slowly to the direction where the voice is coming from, her gaze met with him, drawing her in for seconds."Rhett...?" She sounded really surprised and awestruck eben though she's not supposed to be. She still find it hard to believe her sight though.Rhett was never the type if person who come to such places, what is his business with the park? But he is here any ways. Interesting, huh? Isn't it?"I never thought I see you again, Megan." He confessed, sincerity laced in his voice as he strutted closer to Megan and the kids. "At least, not this soon.""Yeah..." Megan uttered, wearing a s
Tatania knew she was left alone with Damon. She already came up with a plan, and she felt it's time she executes it, knowing how to deviate her plan.'That should not cost me a lot…' She told herself, convincingly. 'Right…!'Pretending to be checking up on Damon, who had barely step out of his room, she decided to give him a glass of drink as an excuse.Tatania knocked softly on his door. “Hey…?”Contemplating, Damon replied her few seconds of silence. “What did you want?” He demanded with a little trail of coldness in his voice. “You should know I'm busy.”“I know, right?” She replied, sarcasm laced in her voice. “Can I come in?”“Just leave. I have no much time to entertain whatever you are here for.” He enunciated rudely, not wanting to spare her any chance of his. “There is always later and some other time, if only it can wait.”“I won't take much of your time.” She responded, and she sounded like she's never leaving until Damon permit her in. “Try being considerate for once, Damo
It's been a week since Tatania left the Zahan without traces. Megan couldn't be any happier, she was pleased at least. She did not miss the gloomy faces of the kids that same day Tatania had decided to leave.Just when they were heading in, they collided onto Tatania. Her facial expression was blank with no traces of emotions in it. Anyone could easily guess she got into a heated argument with someone and she lost maybe. “Tatiana….?” Megan was unable to clamp her mouth shut nor ignore her with the kind of facial expression she was wearing on that day.Instead of a reply, Tatania threw her a sharp look, glaring hard and hells at her. This made Megan to conceal whatever she wanted to say to Tatiana inside her, already aware of what might come next if she says another word. “Are you leaving for somewhere, Tatiana?” Jade chipped in, not minding her facial expression. “Yeah…" Tatiana manages to give Jade a reply, unable to snub him like she did to Megan.“When will you be returning? Soo
Jason was magnetized at the size of the building. It's not just an ordinary or random building, coupled with how enormous and vast it is, making it seems like Jason has seen nothing like it.“Whoa…” Jason exclaimed in amazement. “Do you mean to say dad reside here, eh?” Jason asked to be sure of himself, finding it hard to take his sight off the building. “Yeah.” That was Theresa plain reply. “You are right.”“If what you say turns out to be truth, and he stays here, why then haven't we got to meet each other since these years?” Jason asked his mother in a plain and flat tone. “Why being away from each other?”Theresa breathed in shortly, clearly confused on what to reply to her son with. She realized she was only concerned about the thought of Jason having a father, but never, for once, thought of the questions he might tend to ask and how best to reply. 'What am I supposed to reply to him with?' She asked within herself, but was sure to conceal her fused expression. 'How did I for
Theresa successfully passed the security after being inspected to be certain she isn't a threat with, Jason not included. Getting to the main building's entrance, she pressed the doorbell to announce her presence. A few seconds had barely passed when the door opened revealing a girl, Theresa guess her to be in her late five or maybe six years of age. The little girl's brow was creased upon seeing them, giving her the same look anyone would give to a stranger. The same look expected of any kid, yeah. “Who are you, if I may ask?” The little girl requested, as her soft and childish voice came out, sounding politely. Although, her brow was still creased. “I don't think I've seen you guys around. Right.” “True though…" Theresa answered positively with a slight acknowledgeable nod. “I guess this is Damon's residence, am I right? Damon Zahan.” “Oh, you mean Dad?” The little girl mouthed. Theresa's countenance changed at the mention of 'dad', dropping drastically to the least, but she w
“What I mean is, he is your son.” Theresa told him bluntly. Megan and Damon almost choke on their breath. It is not true, right? “You got to be kidding me…" Damon enounced with a stifled laughter. What is she trying to insinuate? Damon probably thought he must have heard her wrong the first time, but he was sure his ears weren't playing tricks on him. And Megan, on the other hand, felt her heart seized at the sudden confession of Theresa, making her entire world stop for a few seconds. She closes her eyes as she held her breath. 'Can I ever get enough of these supposed dramas that won't stop coming in lately?' She questioned with in herself. 'Can l, eh?' To her, it was starting to get too much and maybe out of hand. No, not maybe... It's really getting out of hand for her to bear with.Megan was very much sure she can't keep up with Damon's exes showing up unannounced and slowly turning into a thorn in the flesh. This is one of the horrible expectations for anyone.First it was T
“You don't reside around the States, do you?” Arielle asked Jason, who shook his head negatively in response to her question. “Where do you reside, then?”“Well, I can say I stay in States, but on the outskirt of the state. Mom and I just relocated here a few months ago. Maybe four or five, that's if I'm correct.” He replied in a faint voice. “You must love changing environment, I guess.” Miguel said. He was probably referring to how Jason and his mother had come unannounced. He needs no one to tell him they will be residing here since they claimed uncle Damon to be his Dad. That's most likely why they came out of the blues, he is sure of it. Jason creased his brow, unable to fathom what Miguel was trying to insinuate. “We've only changed environment once, so I don't get what you are trying to say.” Jason replied, staring keenly at Miguel. “Uh… Never mind.” Miguel wave it off, it's of no use explaining words to him. He should not be telling him that, not at all. “If you say so.”
Months has passed since Stella left Rhett and he could not wish for any thing else. With Stella finally leaving him holds a lot of interpretation to him, it was more than a relief.Truth be told, the first few weeks without Stella was bored and he felt empty but he dreaded the wish of having her back but soon enough, he was able to adapt to it.Rhett spend the months alone, burying himself with works and more works. He was not the same hard and temperamental boss he used to be any more and felt more good in himself having a good relationship with them.He is barely seen leaving his seat till the day was over except for if there is a board meeting for him to attend, if not that, he never leaves his seat.The day Megan had paid him a visit and invited him to her wedding, his feelings for her was different. It was far different from lust or love and he loved the feelings a lot. If only he has realized it sooner..."I see no reason for you to decline my invitation coupled with the fact t
By the time he got home, the kids were already in their room and then he went to meet them inside. "Hey kids..." He called out for their attention and they all rushed to him. "Dad..." They hugged him passionately and they could noticed that he has something to tell them. "What's that Dad?" Jade asked after they had disengaged from the hug. "It sees you've got something to tell us, spill it out." "Yeah, right..." Damon admitted and nodded in agreement. "You should guess who is here, kids." The kids were confused, someone has really came to visit them? They are not really good at guessing but they have to try this time around, who could have visit them today? "Is it Tatiana?" Arielle asked with smiles on her face, she could barely think of any other person than her old friend. "Nope..." Damon shook his head in disagreement earning a frown look from Arielle. "Jason's Mum?" Nell questioned hoping his guess was right but was disappointed when Damon said no to him too. "You kids sh
The silence was deafening as it hang awkwardly on the air. It seems like the two humans opposite each other were being forbidden to utter even a single words.Damon's face was bent as his eyes were strongly fixated on the files on his table. He badly wanted to talk to her, to say some thing to her —any thing!His heart ached as his feelings were growing faster again for her, his mouth yearn for him to confess every thing to her —every thing he ever felt for, without holding back or hiding any of it from her.But then he can't! The thought of him holding back breaks him more than ever and clearly enough to make him go crazy and nut.The lady before him wasn't the same Megan he know —no, she turns out to be a different version and total opposite of her.He vividly remembered the first day they had met and had called her by her name but then..."Megan..." He called her in his oh–so–calmed voice, stopping her abruptly on her track.She turned towards him with an innocent smile on her face
Rhett continue to stare at Stella wondering how and why she had did it. How could Stella have done some thing so despicable like that.For all these years, he had trust her not knowing she is just a wolf in sheep clothing. Had Stella not told him that Megan was having extra affair outside the relationship and he had foolishly trust her knowing full well that she is Megan's friend and will not lie on her? Stella was feeling uncomfortable with this unusual stare that Rhett is giving her. He had never gave her this kind of look and Stella did not know why he is doing so now.He had left the office quite early this morning after they had a lively conversation. Although, Rhett never told her where he was going even when she asked him severally.But now, ever since he returned, he had not say a word to her rather, he was just staring at her with boiling rage. "Rhett..." Stella called since she could no longer bear the silence and weird attitude Rhett is putting on. "What exactly is the p
"Hey there, Meg..." Rhett hailed casually with smiles in his face unsure of the right word to use for her. "It's so good to see you after all these years." "Hi, Rhett. Its so good to see you too." Megan reciprocated although without smiles. "Maybe, though." "To be sincere Meg, I really looked for you after the day you chased me like a pest from your house." Rhett told her, rubbing his palm together. "But each time I keep coming, I always find the door locked and I usually don't get the chance of seeing you too. I really looked for you but all my efforts proved futile. It produce no reward or effect but yet, I never gave up on searching for you until the day we meet at that board meeting." Megan leaned her back on the chair as if she's enjoying the conversation which she is not. She know Rhett won't leave if she did not comply with him. Yeah, she have to act in accordance with him for today. "And what would you have done if you have find me then, eh?" Megan questioned in a demandi
"So what were you saying when we were at the car pack earlier?" Rhett questioned. "Now I can hear you with my full ears." "That question should go to you, Rhett." Stella told him in reply. "That question is not meant for me but you because you are the one asking me about her." "I know so." Rhett nods slowly. "But then you have not given me a positive reply." "Come to think of it Rhett, why would you be asking me of her. Do I look like her keeper to you or am I the one who had invited her to the board meeting." Stella was visibly angry and Rhett know so. "Your answer seems suspicious." Rhett told her. "I just asked you a simple question but you flared up as if what I was asking is a prohibition." "It is indeed prohibited if you did not know." Stella replied almost yelling but was wise enough to control her self. "And have you forgotten the punishment she deserves for hindering your clients from patronizing you any longer. Are you now going to back off all because the firm owner
Immediately the meeting had come to an end, Stella walked out hurriedly as if was probably heading somewhere or maybe there is someone already waiting outside for her and she need to see the person as soon as possible. She did not bother to wait for Rhett who was still talking to some business partner inside the conference hall. "I need to talk to her as soon as I can before Rhett would notice." She said to herself as she wait endlessly for Megan. Just as she was tempted to check what's keeping Megan in for so long, she saw her walk out of the hall all alone. "It just work on my own favour. She's coming out alone and I like the fact that she is." Stella smile wryly as she appeared at the front of Megan giving her that mischievous grin of hers. "Hey there, Miss Starks..." Stella hailed but yet, Megan is not that daft not to have noticed the sarcasm laced in Stella's word. "Good to see you again, I guess so." Megan did not have the time to exchange words with Stella –it would be
Could this really be her? Rhett doubt it but then, the secretary had just mentioned her name as Miss Starks and that is Megan's surname and he knew so.Could this really means Megan's owns the new firm which has been hindering his clients from patronizing him any longer.If truly she's the owner, then will he still go ahead on investigating and punishing the firm owner? He know he can't do such not when the firm is that of Megan's own. But where have she been all this while and only to return and then built a currently rising firm which has also be the talk of the town too.How could she have possibly done this in just a few time and yet, he never got the clue that she is already in town. Rhett never knew Megan to be this clever such in a way that she would have built such a firm in just a short period of time. "That means we should not underestimate any one no matter the position we find them." Rhett conclude within himself as he watch Megan take her seat and the new Megan seems
Rhett sat impatiently waiting for Stella who seems not to be coming anytime soon. He had asked her to meet him since ten minutes ago but she is not yet to come. He was tempted to call her but he changed his mind again. "What is even taking her so long to arrive." Rhett wonder. "And she is aware of the board meeting we are attending. But yet she is taking ages to arrive here." After what seems like eternity to Rhett, Stella walked him giving him that lustful smile but Rhett is in no mood to reciprocate. "Hey there, Rhett..." Stella greet walking closer to him to give him a slight hug. "Your face looks gloomy, what's wrong with you?" "Just take a look at the time, Stella." Rhett said ignoring her question. "You are already fifteen minutes late to the time I asked you to arrive." "Chill dear..." Stella smiled at him as she sat on the table next to Rhett. "It was not my fault that I am late. And besides have I ever came late or disappoint you before." "Then why did you do so this
