My left elbow smashed against the asphalt and I knew I was going to get quite a few bruises from this “little” fall. Groaning, I tried to sit up. But, something was pressing firmly against my chest making it impossible for me to move. A little annoyed, I partially opened my eyes and saw what was enabling me. Startled, I let out a sharp gasp.

“M-Mr. President… what are you–”

Staring into his handsome face, I became aware that we were lying on the street with my head resting against his right shoulder. His right arm was snuggly wrapped around my body which supported my back. Turning his head to me, his eyes snapped open and I heard him let out a frustrated groan.

“Are you stupid Miss Young? You put your life in danger because of this little shit,” he said while glaring down at the puppy that was shivering in my arms.

Gathering myself, I quickly slipped out of his hold, stood up and offered my hand to help him. Getting up off the ground, without taking my hand, he started brushing the

    I could never seem to shift my attention from that tiny woman. She looked like she was examining every little thing in the room. My mind drifted back to how terrified I felt as I watched her standing frozen in the middle of the street as that fucking truck came barreling down the road. I had already texted Scott to find that maniac and to make sure that he would get fired before the day was over. Miss Young could have lost her life in a matter of seconds. And for what? A stupid animal! So reckless! I yanked her to safety before I even fully registered what was happening. All I could think about in that moment was to save her—to protect her. I had only known the woman for a day! Why was I behaving like this?Still studying her, two female doctors and a red headed nurse entered the room. Their eyes instantly sought me out and they profusely blushed while gawking at me. One of them took a step toward me as if she was about to ask for a picture or some such nonsense. Sighing, I shook my h

    The temperature inside the car suddenly dropped. Even the AC wasn't enough to cool down the brimming fire, igniting from Victor's eyes. He heard her loud and clear.Who was she calling the baby? Could it be a man or that guy called Noah?When Assistant Zaid saw his boss's killing expression through the rearview mirror, he quickly went on explaining," Boss..Boss.. Don't take her words too seriously..She must have read a script and was too immersed into the character..I checked it all personally. She didn't date any guy when she was overseas."The fire in Victor Reynolds's eyes melted a little. It was only convincing because his investigation team was top-notch in the country. No way, they failed to gather wrong information about Janet. He let out a long helpless sigh and the next time, he was carrying the girl in his arms.As he carried her into the hallway, the maids all ran over to him to greet however they all retreated after receiving a sharp glare from Victor Reynolds.

    When Director Susinna came on the set, he was surprised to see that Janet had actually followed his order. His eyes shone up brightly to see her dedication towards her works. Janet was struggling with the rope when she heard the director's voice," Janet! If it's too hard..we can find a double stunt!"The scene included riding from one tree to another tree with a rope singlehandedly. Although the distance wasn't too much, as a romantic actress, she was scared of heights. However, she wanted to do it all by herself. Janet assured him smiling as she clung to the tree like a monkey," Director, I can handle it. If I fail to impress you, you can always find a stunt double for me. I won't refuse that time.."This kid....Director Susinna let out an exasperated sigh. Other actresses were always scared of bruises. But she...she didn't care about doing everything on her own. Believing in her judgement, Director Susinna didn't pressure her anymore and left her in practice to see the final shot

    The most startled person was the duty doctor. In his lifetime, he never saw these awesome doctors all together to treat a single person. Furthermore, she didn't even break a single bone.What was the situation?Even Janet was stunned without saying anything. She could certainly guess who did this for her treatment. She held her aching forehead and cursed underneath her breath. Director Susinna saw her expression and immediately understood what was going on. He urged those doctors to get out," Janet is doing fine. There is no reason for all body check-up. Let her rest! This child has suffered too much already. Get back all of you!"Janet also nodded her head vigorously, waving at the doctors who were here for her treatment," Yes..yes..I am absolutely fine..I have not even fainted.. Please spare me alive, doctors."There were so many Reporters outside of the hospital already. If those doctors visited her together, surely they would think that something major had happened to her.

    Lily puke a few litres over his question. She didn't expect from Andrew that someone was going to ask such a straightforward question. As a result, her cheeks turned a little warm and hot. She wanted to skip answering but thinking about how she promised to do anything, she had to give him a solid answer. Lily hesitated for a while before replying with a long sigh," Actually..No.. Sister Janet doesn't like him but the guy is persistent!"Andrew felt slightly better after the answer. He thought Janet was his good friend. So, he definitely didn't want her to suffer from any heartache. CEOs like Victor Reynolds only regarded this artist as their plaything.When they both reappeared on the ward, Victor was gone already. He understood that Janet didn't want any rumours at this moment. So, it was better for him to leave early. Lily was in tears after meeting Janet finally.

Get back into the car! Shit!"Lily was suddenly snapped back to reality, jumped back into the car and quickly pulled up the glasses. However, she was still scared a bit and spoke with a solemn expression," God! Did they really take pictures of us? Will we be on the headlines tomorrow?"She sounded resentful as if it was the worst thing that could happen to her. Andrew glared at the woman who treated him like a worthless paper.

    " Sister Janet! It's too late! Why don't you stay in our company's hotel?", Lily suggested, quickly catching up with her pace. Janet pondered for a while and found that it was better now. Now the clock had tickled to 11 P.M at night and there was no call from Victor, she assumed that he hadn't returned yet. Furthermore, she felt bored in the house all alone. Janet nodded with her in agreement and looked behind the tall building," You sound right! I will stay overnight here then. Call the manager to notify him once."Recently, SKYWINGS started earning well slowly. CEO Gary quickly bought this hotel nearby to expand the business. For the artists under SKYWINGS, they had a privilege in their sub branches such that she could stay in this hotel without any cost.After manager Aiden had confirmed that Janet could stay at the hotel, Lily left her at the entrance and drove back to her own house. From the hidden Maybach, Noah had his eyes fixed on the girl who was bidding farewell to her assi

    Janet coughed vigorously before asking to double check. Her eyes were slightly widened in shock," Mmm! CEO Gary..are..are you sure that these rules are not for me?"Naturally, the company gives multiple clauses to artists to keep up with their perfect image. So, Janet was obviously doubtful even questioned about CEO Gary's authority in her heart. CEO Gary made a face like he wanted to smack this dumb woman's head. He put another cupcake into his mouth before telling," Do you think that I would come here personally to humiliate myself just to show you this?"Janet was speechless. Even Andrew who heard the pathetic terms came across to take a look at the papers. His eyes were big in disbelief as he slammed the papers down to blurt out loud," No way! Janet! He must be a fake CEO!"CEO Gary rolled his eyes and leant against the couch leisurely. His lips twitched in the mockery before asking Andrew back," Boy...you have never been in love right?"Andrew seemed dumbstruck by his questio

    The engagement news was kept hidden. Since when CEO Fred heard it from Janet's mouth, he was baffled out before losing the ability to say anything. His marriage to the heir of Graham's family was fixed. That heir from the Graham family was a spoiled woman who could even beat men. Because of her share from the company's family, CEO Fred agreed to marry her. However, the girl had only one rule which was that he had to stay far away from women. If she finds anything again, she would come to break his leg personally.That mad woman..CEO Fred was internally freaking out but however, he couldn't even talk now or do anything. Janet was satisfied with the terrified expression on his face. She simply pulled her phone out and clicked a few pictures of CEO Fred who was laying half-conscious. Without hesitation, she sent it to his Fiancee. After all, the girl was innocent and she deserved to know the true face of this scum.After taking a few pictures from different angles, Janet saw that the pa

    Janet took a deep breath to calm herself down. She rubbed her forehead aching and finally said in a serious voice," CEO.. Victor...You are too much really..I feel like you are seducing me to stay at your home. Please you are an honorable person. You deserve to act all high and proud. Why are you insisting on chasing me?"Victor let out a helpless sigh. He had nothing to respond actually. It was more like a first sight. The moment he saw her in the hospital, he wanted her as his own. So, he approached her slowly and cautiously. It felt as though he was attracted to her from the beginning. He ignored her question, said apologizing," I..I am sorry..I have gone overboard..I know that you don't like me..but I can't help.. really.."Janet didn't feel convinced with her words. She replied sternly, looking down at her feet," I guess, it's not convenient for me anymore to stay at your home.

    " What opinions?", Noah entered into the dining room, looking extremely tired. The new company was taking a lot of his strength to build up. When he appeared on the entrance, he barely heard about the elders, discussing about something regarding his opinion.Jonathan smiled big at his son, replied after patting the seat next to him," There, my son! We were talking about your marriage to Jessica."Noah froze in his track, looked blankly at the elders as if they were cracking jokes. However, Jessica was already blushing. She lowered her head down to hide her smile. Noah retorted sharply, turning grim in annoyance," What... what did you say? Getting married to Jessica? Since when did I agree?"The dinner table fell awkwardly silent. His response even shocked Jessica who looked up at him stupified. Jessica never expected that Noah was going to refuse to marry her even after finding the dark sides of Janet.Didn't he say that he hated Janet for abandoning her family for her dream?Mother

    Kate was flabbergasted with an expression of being frozen over decades. She looked around uncertainly and indeed noticed that there was nothing special in the room. If it was a date, there should have been flowers, candles or anything fascinating. However, the room was looking nothing less than a haunted place.Kate suddenly had a very bad feeling. She looked up at the man who was smoking lazily. His legs were wobbly crossed, a kingly aura surrounded the air around him. A few buttons of his retro suit were frankly opened, highlighting the taut muscles underneath. She suddenly had a feeling of being trapped by a Mafia Boss.Kate cleared her throat, embarrassing," Then..why..did you call me CEO Victor?"She dared not to address him by his name so casually. Victor peeked his head outside through the layer of smoke. He pointed at the screen beside them and told casually," Miss Kate! I needed some confirmation from you. Do you know the woman in the footage? Take a look at it!"Kate subco
