I unintentionally scowled while my mind went wild thinking about who this guy was, in a long black hoodie with his face covered and the baggy trousers were touching his black worn-out shoes. 'Is he a thief? Or is he a shabby-looking bodyguard of Andrew that's why the other two aren't paying much attention to him?' "What's with that face of yours? That man is no one you should pay attention to." Adrian said still not telling me who it was. Licking my lips I thought for a while, my eyes staring at the videos ahead of me before I signed. Maybe I should not think too much. Slumping back on the chair I stared around. Only three chairs were placed in this room, from which one was empty right now. The white walls were clean and empty... Just like my life, that was what came to my mind but I shook my head. I was happy now, but if this whole event didn't go well, then I didn't know what would happen. I roamed my eyes around to
Andrew Pov The cool breeze was making flowers dance while I stood in my office watching the beautiful view. I took a sip of my black steaming coffee while ruffling my soft silky honey brown hair. A sigh of relief escaped my mouth as the meeting went well and finally, my company, Ford teach company, have a deal with Lee Min Jun. The guy had been against us but as it is said 'Money can buy anything' I always believed it because of which I was here today. A smirk made its place on my face as my blue eyes looked at the beautiful scenery in front of me. Being on the top floor of the biggest company surely made me feel proud, and it has its advantages too. The orange-pink shade sky hinted that it was about to be nigh after some time. The knock on my door made me turn, to face another side of the room. The secretary, Ms. Emma was standing there looking at the ground. "What is it?" I asked her as I took my seat with a blank face. "I ha
Andrew Pov Terrible, that was what I felt when I woke up because of the annoying sun rays that had been able to escape from the curtain and hit my face directly. I looked beside me to see a glass of water with a headache pill on the side table, mentally making a note to thank Catherine for doing this, I took the medicine. Gulping the water down from the glass, I went through my morning routine. ****** "Are you sure you wanna PA?" Noah asked. Well, this annoying man who would usually eat my mind from his blabbering and would make me want to punch his face was sadly my friend and a Ceo of a big company. "Why can't I get one?" "You are working for five years and you never want a PA, why now?" He was curious, which meant he would not leave me until I would tell him what he wanted. "There is a lot of work nowadays and it would be better to have someone who can do some of my work." My head was hurting like a bitch
"Do I have to, Liam?" I asked the guy who was looking at me with a look which was shouting 'Yes' "But that dog sits anywhere and then doesn't walk for the next hour or so! He even barks at me! and shows his big teeth to me," I whined but not even a muscle of his face moved as he kept staring at me. Currently, I was doing my morning job which was at the animal shelter. Honestly, I like animals, but a certain dog, Max, a big black hairy and double my size animal was not liked by me. He would make me work double than I have to, I guess our feelings were mutual. Many animals have gone on a walk with me as Liam thought it was good to take them out for once in a while and I enjoyed doing it. But Max seemed to have a special hatred towards me as he would always make his place dirty so I have to clean it twice and last time when I took him for a stroll.......well it was the worst day ever. I had to stand in front of the garbage can for an hour because Max thought it
Andrew Pov "Are you kidding, Father?" I spit the word father with such bitterness that it was impossible for anyone to not notice the hatred I have for this old man in front of me. "Don't you dare to raise your voice at me and this is my last time telling you this, do it or face the consequences." The man in a suit with salt and pepper hair was looking at me with his eyes that were showing how much he hated me too. "This company ain't yours then how can you say you will give it that so-called brother of mine!" I was the one who brought this company to where it was now, he couldn't just take it from me. "I'm your father and if you have forgotten then just to remind you this company is as much as yours as it is mine." He said, on which I rolled my eyes. He wouldn't even help in anything and still, he was also the owner of it. "I'm ignoring your bad manners, for now, find a girl or marry the girl I want. Otherwise, say bye to your company." He wa
Alyssa Pov With a sigh, I sat on the sofa. The decision was hard but was it right? I went to the kitchen to see my small sister eating her food made by me. "How is it?" "Okay." I shook my head in disappointment, on which she gave me a sweet smile and hugged me. "It's the best I ever had and you're a great sister." A smile touched my lips, it was good to hear about how much my sis loves me and my food. The vibration of my mobile caused me to look at it and I saw a message from Liam. What did this man want from me now? 'Can you meet me at our usual place?' The message said. with a short 'ok' reply I ran to my room. After changing my dress, keeping the club uniform in a bag, I went downstairs and told my sister that I was leaving. She complained that she also wanted to see Liam because my sister has a big ass crush on Liam and I would like them to date but the male would never say anything about it.
Enormous, that was what Andrew's house was. 'How does he live all alone here?' I would get lost in this big house alone and of course, it would be so lonely here. Following the male, I walked still in shock after seeing the beauty of the house. The heavy bridal dress and Andrew's big steps weren't helping me with walking though. "Can you slow down?" I finally said stopping for a while. The expensive and elegant dress was given to me by him. It was quite a surprise when in the morning bell rigged and some people walked inside. One had a dress, others had shoes and jewelry. A makeup artist was also sent and when I texted him (as he had given me his number a day before that day) he just replied with 'do not worry about it too much, and get ready.' Like what? Anyway, I didn't say anything else. Looking up from my dress I saw Andrew staring at me and waiting patiently. "Uh, ...I zoned out." My cheeks heat
Alyssa Pov "Ah, where are you going?" Andrew asked with confusion. "To work, I have to walk as we can't let anyone know that you know me or something. Also, I don't know how to drive a car." I answered his unasked questions too. "Come, you're going with me." Without even giving me a chance to say something he sat in the car. Odd, but he was driving the car himself not asking some driver to drive it. I was about to take a seat at the backside but his one look and I knew he wanted me to sit beside him. After settling down in the front seat, I looked out of the window without a word. 'Phew, he can be scary sometimes.' Who knew I would be in a car with my husband.....it felt odd to say that. I never thought I would marry someone because of money, sounded like a gold digger thingy, but didn't I marry him because of his wealth? 'Don't be stupid, you needed the cash because of your mother.' Maybe my conscie
I unintentionally scowled while my mind went wild thinking about who this guy was, in a long black hoodie with his face covered and the baggy trousers were touching his black worn-out shoes. 'Is he a thief? Or is he a shabby-looking bodyguard of Andrew that's why the other two aren't paying much attention to him?' "What's with that face of yours?

"Are you all fine with this plan?" I asked nervously because now when it was the day to put that idea into action I was hesitating, what if this plan was not good enough? What if she was already preparing for this? What if she knew about our intention behind calling her here? Many and many questions arose in my mind as I sat to think about 'how this night will come to an end?' "Come on, be a little sure of yourself. Everything will be fine." Noah as always cheered me up as I nodded. Even when Andrew didn't like Adrian, he was part of our plan and so the four of us were discussing one last time how things should go. "But why do Alyssa have to go with that man." Even after all the videos and conclusion, that the other guy was not at fault my spouse still didn't seem to be okay with him. I would say the same about me cause the hatred I had for Adrian for so many years couldn't just go within some days. It would take time for me to be okay with him. "Because they both are needed for t
It looked unreal or something that was just said because for me it could never happen. Sometimes I wondered 'if that's true?' or 'could it occur in real life?' Because I did not believe in love or having someone you would want to spend your whole life with, without any thought of being bored with them; two people being together for their whole life was something I had lost my belief from. But then Andrew came, making me think all of my thoughts were wrong. He showed me how someone could love each other more than themselves when months ago they were just two strangers. He taught me that not everyone was the other's soul mate but every person did have a soulmate, he or she just hadn't found the right one that was why they were alone. When the right time would come the two people, who were right for each other, would meet. One of my old thoughts that changed now was that I thought no one could understand what other person was feeling, tone couldn't describe their emotion. But well
Blink, blink, blink. Rubbing my eyes I stared inside the Cafe, some people gave me a look as to why I was staring at the eatery like that but I ignored them. People do nothing other than make their wrong assumptions and think bad about others. Maybe my husband taught me one nice thing which was to not care about others' thoughts, they might never be able to understand you or your situation. "Wow, I can't believe I'm seeing this," I muttered but then a question formed in my mind. 'Won't that female will know about this? Someone might have already told her about my and Adrian's meet-up. And now these two.' But then there was one more thing, it didn't matter to her. All she wanted was to break down my husband and separate us. That wouldn't be happening but we could act like that. The bell on the door pinged as I entered inside and walked straight for ordering something first. After placing the order I turned back to see the two guys who I wanted to talk to were glancing at me. Ro
Confusing, frustrating, with no end or any idea of where to go. This was all I could say about the situation I was in. Staying away from my husband while having no work to relax me, yeah relax because now that I think by checking files and documents given by Andrew I would always be able to let myself forget about other problems, made my mind full of thoughts about Bonnie, Adrian and what was the truth? The cherry on the top, I had to move around with my face hidden behind a mask or hoodie, why? Cause just some days ago my shoulders were grazed by a bullet and later that day some men tried to kidnap me but thankfully I was able to run away. Didn't know who was behind this or why all this was happening but one thing was clear, which was to not walk around while showing my face. It was better to be like this, hidden in baggy clothes. Ding! The door opened and I exit the elevator, looking straight ahead of me I was opting for the main gate of the hotel when I heard a voice calling
The long hoodie, that reached my thighs, and the baggy trousers were something I was comfortable in. Walking out of the big building with my face covered and some curious glances following me, I sat in the cab. I was busy texting some people who were quite good at getting information that might be hidden and couldn't be ever found. Andrew had made me meet them when he wanted to get some information about one of his soon-to-business partners, whose name I didn't remember. This time I was asking for their help in getting to know about Bonnie. Wanted to get out of my problematic life for a while I came to a park where I felt at peace. The cool breeze and green trees were something that was helping my mind to relax. A sigh escaped my mouth as I closed my eyes, I couldn't sleep for the last two days knowing my husband would be worried about me. Today I switched on my mobile and had above fifty messages and one hundred and three missed calls all from one person, my spouse. "I'm so sorry,
Alyssa Pov (A day before Andrew came back) "Can't you stop huh!? Is it necessary for you to create a problem every day?" Some might think I have lost my mind while others would say I never had one, but I did and everyone has different ways of using it. Right now I couldn't think of anything else but to be here and face that male. "Wow, what a day! Alyssa has come to me without me asking for it. How come I'm blessed with your face today?" Inhaling slowly before exhaling I tried to calm myself. How could he joke and laugh like this? Well, maybe he could cause he never cared about others' feelings. "I'm serious here, what do you get from threatening and joking about things that are precious to others. You got a problem with me, with Andrew, okay, we will face you but why!? Why drag my friend and Michelle in this! He is your father too, for God's sake! Can't you just let him out of this hatred web in which you and my husband are?" I frowned as the male stared at me without a word.
Andrew pov I was happy, a big smile that was spread across my face wouldn't go away even when my cheeks were hurting because of smiling too much. But how couldn't I smile? I was gonna meet my wife, my love, without her one day felt like a month. She laughed yesterday when I was saying pick up lines here and there while talking to her but nothing I said was a joke. She did look hotter than any other day in her night suit. Stopping myself from skipping my way towards the plane, like a happy child who was on his way to the candy shop, I did a handshake from the guy who had helped me from yesterday till now before calmly walking ahead. Even when my inside was anything but calm. ***** Not going to the office for looking after some work that had to be done today, as work can wait, I went home. It was already evening the sky was a mixture of red and orange while the sun was nearly gone. A sigh left my lips as I kept my head on the seat of the car, I remembered how I wasn't even able to
When black clouds had ruled the sky and the small light that was showing the way was being taken away, anyone would be afraid to let that light disappear. A sensible person would be afraid to be lost without the light and the darkness wasn't a good thing to be lost in. But here I was worried about my light and what would happen with it? My husband who had always been the one saving me was going to some other city because of a business meeting and I was hella worried about him, his safety. The conversation I last had with Adrian was making me shitting bricks. "Is it necessary for you to go?" I questioned as he made me sit with him on the couch. "You see it's an important work that had to be done. And even when I don't want to leave you here I can't take you with me because you have to look after some work here. The stepbrother of mine won't let go of a chance like this to create a problem for my company and me." I sighed understanding him while keeping my head on his shoulder as he
