“It’s good to see you again, Maria,” Paul opened up with a wide smile on his face. There was a hint of anxiety in his voice, though. Perhaps he didn’t know how he would approach her after five long years.
They already finished dinner and everyone was having desserts. Evina coaxed him to ask Maria if they could talk in private. He thought Maria wouldn’t agree. But she did.
They were in the backyard and sitting on the bench. The sky was clear, and the stars could be vividly seen from where they were.
“You too, Paul,” Maria smiled at him, making Paul’s heart gallop at a fast rate. Even when the years have passed, he still has feelings for her.
She left the country without even saying anything to him. He thought that it was because he was too hasty with expressing his feelings with her that is why she moved away.
He didn’t want to make her feel uncomfortable again, so he decided to just let her go.

Evina bit her fingernails as she stared into nothingness. Her heart was palpitating faster than light. Her father and the Chairman would be meeting later in the afternoon. And she felt jittery about the outcome. “Calm down. If Plan A didn’t work out, we have Plan B anyway,” Gabriel soothed her anxiety. He held her hand and brought it to his lips. It is the weekend and Gabriel didn’t come to work. He and Evina decided to go to a jewelry store. Their plan is to go to the Chairman’s Villa after their meeting and give him a gift. If the result is great, they could celebrate. And if not, they could pacify him. Evina walked inside the store with Gabriel.

But afterward, Gabriel whispered in Evina’s ear, “Very soon they will not call us like that. It will be Mr. and M
The CEO's Rebellious Woman Give Them A Chance
Chairman Yang paced back and forth at the floor. His hand flew to rub his neck as he checked on his watch. He was already an hour late. “Did he opt to back out at the last minute?” He sneered. He has been waiting for him inside the car. But since it was taking him a long time, he decided to get out of the car and wait for him outside. “I did not,” A voice behind him replied. Chairman Yang turned to his back and saw William approaching him. He chose to meet up at the first office of The Elysian Inc. Building. It was part of a shabby commercial complex then. But now it deteriorated to extinction as there were no tenants left in the place. Instead, it was an old abandoned building filled with exposed pipes and loops of loose wiring hanging through holes in the ceiling and torn-up flooring. He wanted him to be reminded of their good memories that he destroyed. With a sarcastic smile on his face, he smirked as William walked towards him. He
