Andrian’s POV
I really don’t understand myself anymore! Just when I said I will return to the old me, I fell for Leah’s trick again. What did I do to these girls that they are bent on ruining me? Can’t they go for someone else?
I heard a knock on the door and quickly arranged the files in order before sitting on my chair fully focused. The knock came again and I asked the person to come in.
“Good day Andrian” I heard the voice and raised my head to see it was Zoey.
“Good day Zoey” I answered stuttering nervously
“Are you okay?” she asked taking a sit
“Yeah, I’m fine” I said and cleared my throat
“So why are you here?” I asked after getting a hold of myself
“I came to submit my resignation letter like I said” she took out an envelope from her bag and dropped it on the table

✨Episode 41✨ Unknown POV I smiled satisfactorily after ending the call. I guess you want to know who I am? Well, that will be later. I want Zoey to find out about who Leah really is so I had to stop her from going to Paris. People might call be a backstabber but I'm not. All I want is justice for my sister that was killed by Leah. I'm going to avenge her death in the most brutal way. Zoey's POV I woke up feeling stronger than before, I think it's a good thing I slept. I decided to get up from my bed but then I stopped when I remembered the anonymous call. I will wait back like he said and find out who betrayed me like he said. I'm definitely going to make that person pay after I find out! Let me inform Leah about it "Hello Leah" "Hey Zoey! Aren't you supposed to be on your way to Paris?" "Yeah... but I changed my mind. I've decided to stay behind" "Huh? Why?" "Someon

They asked everyone that applied for the contract to come to the company with their fiance.I called Skylar to dress up and come over to the company immediately. I really hope things go well.Minutes later, she came into the office dressed in a blue short strapless gown and for a minute, I drooled over her. I never knew Skylar could be this beautiful."Are you done?" she asked with a smirk plastered on her face"I don't know what you're talking about" I said facing the files on my table"Why are you ears red?" she asked mockingly"This isn't what I called you for""Yeah!

✨Episode 43✨ Andrian's POV I closed my eyes as I waited for the man to announce who the first position goes to. I know it can't be I and Skylar because we're not even in love, I just hope we're not among the last five. "The first position goes to C.A company" I heard the man say and I opened my eyes wide in shock I didn't hear him clearly! There's no way it could have been my company. Who is the person that has the same company name as mine? "Mr and Mrs Carter, please step forward" the man said again and that was when I figured he might be referring to me I slowly stood up with Skylar and we walked to where the others stood. "You see this beautiful couple here? I'm sure they're the envy of most couples out there. They are madly in love with each other and I can assure you they will live happily forever. None of you took care or the rooms given to you but Mr Andrian here did that even though his wife made him do

✨Episode 44✨ Skylar's POV I stared at Mason like he had gone nuts. He's in love with me? "Are you sure you're okay Mason?" I asked but he just sighed "I know you won't believe me. Besides, I didn't tell you so you can date me. I only told you so my heart can be free" "Okay. I don't know what to say" "It's okay. I know you love Andrian so much and I wish two of you a happy and long lasting relationship" he said with a sad smile and I kind of felt pity for him "Mason..." "Let's not ruin the moment. Aren't you planning to go to college?" "Uhmm... I don't know yet! I don't really have much money right now" I said truthfully "Do you want to go?" "Yes I do" "Okay. I will help with the necessary fees" "No Mason, I will go to college at the right time" "Let me do this one thing for you Skylar" he pleaded "I will think about it" I said after staring at him for a while

I picked up the form and started filling the necessary information but not too long, my phone rang. Oh... Mason! "Hello dear!" "Mason! How are you doing?" "Fine. Have you thought about what I told you?" "Errm..... You see, I don't know how it happened but Andrian already collected a form for me and I've filled it" "R.. really?" he stuttered "Yes and I can't reject it. I'm sorry" "It's okay, it probably wasn't meant to be" "Have you taken dinner?" "No, but I'm going to do that now. What about you?" "I've eaten" "Ohh... That's great!" "Yeah. We'll talk tomorrow. G

✨Episode 46✨ Donald's POV I knew she was going to fall for me without me having to stress myself because it has always been like that. When a lady stares at me, she gets drowned in my handsomeness and Skylar isn't an exception. I don't think I will be needing up to two weeks before I accomplish my mission. When it was night time, I checked the card she gave me and decided to call her. "Good evening Skylar" I said once she picked the call "Evening. Please who am I speaking with?" "It's Donald" "Ohh...... How are you doing?" "Fine" "Did something happen?" "No, I just missed your voice. I had to borrow this phone so I could call you" "Ohh... But why didn't you tell me you don't have a phone when I gave you a card?" "I didn't want to be a burden to you. Besides, I'm a guy and I was meeting the popular Mrs Andrian for the first time.

I was the dumb one to believe he had changed.He called the third time and I figured I has no choice but to answer the call."Hello Skylar" his voice came in"Yeah, what do you have to say?" I asked a bit rudely"Is something wrong?" he asked like he's concerned"Why are you asking? For how long do you want to keep pretending?" I asked going straight to the point"I don't understand" he said trying to act dumb, well two can play this game"You don't understand? Is it the fact that you impregnated Leah and schemed with her to pin it on Andrian? Or the fact that you made a fool out of me?" I asked getting angry"I see you found out my plans already.

✨Episode 71✨(Final Episode)Skylar's POVAfter the hot romance between Andrian and I, we laid on the bed staring at the ceiling lost in different thoughts.I haven't had sex with Andrian yet because I'm scared. Scared because I heard first time is always painful and also because I don't know if Andrian will like me afterwards.I shrugged the thought of my mind and just stared into space."Why are you avoiding sex?" Andrian asked making me gulp nervously"I... I'm not avoiding it" I stuttered helplessly"Really? You always stop me whenever we are close to doing it and you said you're not avoiding it?" he asked with a scoff"I'm really not avoiding it""Fine then! Let's do it now since you're not avoiding it""I... We can do it later, not now""Are you scared?" he asked softly"No! Why would I be scared?" I answered raising my voice a little"Okay, i

✨Episode 70✨(Semi-final)Andrian's POVI sat in the garden just staring into space. Within few days, my life has become something else entirely.I can't believe Leah will go to this extent. What did I ever do to her? I guess this is the price I have to pay for sleeping with two friends. I don't know what I was thinking."What are you thinking about?" Skylar asked sitting beside me"Nothing" I lied looking away"You don't have to deny it. I know you're thinking about what is happening but you really don't have to think about it anymore.Avery told me something just now" she said making me turn to face her"What did she tell you?" I asked anxiously"She said the pregnancy doesn't belong to you, it belongs to someone else" she said and I felt my head spin"W.. what did you say?" I stutteredI must have heard wrong. There's no way Leah is pregnant for someone else."You

✨Episode 69✨Skylar's POVI listened to the recording posted by an anonymous person over and over again.The voice clearly belongs to Leah and she was talking to someone else probably on phone because the other person's voice wasn't heard.One thing is obvious in the record. She's pregnant for someone but she's trying to pin it on someone else.Does this mean she's pregnant for someone else and she's trying to pin it on Andrian or she's pregnant for Andrian and she's trying to pin it on someone else?Aish!!! I'm going crazy! If she had just mentioned someone's name, then this puzzle will be solved.Maybe the first thing to do is find out who posted the record. I'm sure the person will have a clue to what Leah really meant.I stood up to go in search of Andrian but I stopped in my track when I remembered something.Avery mention something about posting a record when she was talking to Leah yesterday so

I just finished cooking and I came to call Avery downstairs but what I heard made me stop.She was threatening someone but who? I heard her talk about the kidnap so I think it's Leah but I'm not sure about that.What did Avery discuss with Leah that evening? If only I could know what they talked about, then I would have the answers to my questions.I sighed tiredly before knocking the door."Come in" I heard Leah's voice"Dinner is ready, come downstairs" I said to her"Alright, I'll be there soon" she said not looking up from her phoneI stared at her for a while before going back downstairs. I just hope Avery knows what she's doing because Leah can be very dangerous.After we were done eating, I cleared the plates and washed them in the kitchen.I took out my phone as I sat on one of the couches in the sitting

✨Episode 67✨Andrian's POVI sat in my office as I waited patiently for Skylar's call. I told her to call me once they get to school but I haven't seen her call and it's being a while they left home.I'm beginning to have a bad feeling but I don't know what to do. I even tried calling her but she didn't pick my calls.Just when I stood up to go in search of them, my phone rang and I discovered it was Skylar calling. I sat down and hurriedly picked the call."Hello! How are you doing? What of Avery and Ella? Is everything okay?" I asked anxiously before she could say a word"Yeah, I guess" she muttered and I became really scared"S... Skylar! What happened?""It turned out that Avery was right, we're fine though""Did something happen?""Yeah, I'll tell you when we get back home""Okay, take care of yourself for me""You too" she mumbled before ending the callI rubbed my sw

✨Episode 66✨Zoey's POVI went back to my mansion in tears. How could Leah do that to me? The most painful part of it is that she doesn't feel remorseful.Why didn't I see that part of her all these while we were together? Was there a time she ever considered me her best friend?If she has been craving for Andrian all these time, does that mean she was the one that asked Mira to poison Andrian and framed me for it? Oh goodness!She acted like she cared and even encouraged me to be strong but she was the real enemy?Can my life get any worse? I don't think so!Right now, I don't even know what to do anymore. Andrian thinks I'm his enemy but he doesn't know his real enemy is right under his nose.How could Andrian even think of sleeping with Leah and getting her pregnant? Isn't he ashamed?Thank goodness he already ended our friendship because I would have been the one to do it now.Avery's POV

✨Episode 65✨ Avery's POV I walked up the stairs with a smirk plaserered on my face. Leah must be dumb to think I will sit and watch her do whatever she likes to Andrian. I know you must be confused about the recording I played so I'll explain it. *Flashback to the day Leah visited Andrian in his mansion* Authoress POV After Skylar saw Andrian and Leah kissing, she couldn't sleep anymore so she went to see Audrey before going on a date with Mason from there. Avery and Ella arrived from school and they noticed the unusual quietness in the house but they paid no attention to it because they were tired. When they were done changing their clothes, Avery decided to go to the balcony and that was where she saw Leah. Leah was on a call and she was backing Avery so she had no idea that someone was behind her. "You can say that again. He's so gullible and I'm sure he won't think twice before a

✨Episode 64✨Andrian's POV*The next day*Skylar woke me up in the morning to take my bath. Surprisingly, she was already dressed."Didn't you sleep?" I asked after staring at her for a while"I slept, I only woke up early. The time is 7:00 already, stand up and go and bath"I sluggishly stood up and went to the bathroom. After about twenty to twenty five minutes, I was done wearing my clothes."What else?" I asked Skylar when I was done"Nothing. I already called the guards to take our bags""Let's go then" I said leading the wayWe were both wearing dark shades to avoid the media and public and I prayed within me that none of them should recognize us.Thankfully, no one noticed us and we finally got into the private jet. I don't know what awaits me when I return to USA but with Skylar by my side, I feel safe and somehow confident.We arrived at USA few hours later. The guards he
