Eri Sunville, an intelligent and hardworking female who needs to earn enough for her sister's surgery. She needs any job she can get at any moment and so when she gets the job as a secretary to famous and arrogant multi billionaire, Don Jones, she finds herself having to keep up with his behavior to earn for the surgery. Don Jones, an arrogant yet strikingly handsome CEO who cares about nothing else but the success of his company and will be getting married to his fiancee who has been kept anonymous to stir up the media. --- "Why are you late?" A deep and cold voice called. I had not even noticed the man sitting on the chair in front of the table that lay close to the wall. I stared at him and my goodness, was this how handsome Don Jones was. Nobody told me he was this hot. He had well defined jawlines, a prominent nose and high cheekbones that made me wonder how on earth a man could been so damn gorgeous. He had smooth and straight black hair that fell on his forehead. I only realized I had been staring at his full and perfectly shaped black eyebrows when they furrowed to form a frown. I stared at his eyes and he held my gaze with those devilish dark blue eyes.

She'd never forgive me If she found out.I should've not been such a stupid child always wanting things to go my way. Now I ended up like this.My life would never be complete without her. She'd leave me and I wouldn't be able to do anything. I would end up miserable without her.Catherine was obviously someone special in her life. Eri's obviously hated me since I caused her mom's death, what do I do?I have to let her know. I need to let her know because I can't live the rest of my life with the guilt of knowing I killed her mother.The sound of the door opening caused me to jerk my eyes open.I sat up straight on the bed, turning to see Eri sauntering in."I'm sorry, did I wake you up?" She came to take a seat beside me."No, I wasn't sleeping."I had no idea if that was true. Was I just thinking with my eyes closed? Or was I dreaming and thinking about it all in my dream?Staring at her, I fe
-Don Jones-I stretched my arms to the air, yawning and sitting straight on the bed.I was surprised when I checked the time on the wall clock. It was 9p.m, well thank goodness today was Saturday so I could rest all day.The door opened, and without any surprise, Eri ambled in. She looked stunning in the purple spaghetti handle shirt she wore and grey miniskirt. She was also holding a purple purse."Good morning my love." She sauntered towards me, sitting on the bed beside me and planting a kiss on my cheeks."You look beautiful, are you heading somewhere?" I asked.She had a smile on.I loved having to see her first thing in the morning. Her presence was like a gift to me and I just wanted every other day to be filled with happiness."Yes, today's Suzy's appointment with the doctor for radiation therapy." She dramatically swiped no sweat off her forehead. "Finally she's going to be completely healed and there'd be no need for stress or other things.""I'm happy for you. Will you stay
"Will you ever leave that door?" Don asked, his head fixed to his laptop.I still stayed in the position, folded arms, leaning against the door that connects both our offices."Why didn't you tell me you've known June for fifteen years?" I furrowed my brows.He still didn't raise his head from that laptop. "You never asked."I scoffed. "You're so annoying."He finally rose his head from the laptop. "Okay, what do you want to know?" He had a smile on."A lot, like how you two met and how long you've dated.""Why are you suddenly curious to know that?" He asked with a raised brow. "Come sit here." He gestured to the seat that was beside his chair.Hesitantly, I shambled to seat where he told me to. Once beside him, be wrapped an arm round my waist which I didn't protest to."Yesterday, when you'd gone to work she'd started saying bullshits like how she's going to have you and I must leave you alone. It's annoying."His brows were pulled together in a frown before his expression changed
"This week had been a lovely one guys." I told Suzy and Rose through the video call.I wasn't lying, we'd never loved each other any less for the last one week. All we've been doing is just talk, go to work and on walks, have sex and talk some more.I love him so much and if this is how the rest of my life would be, I'd happily stay this way."That's great, it's been good for me too. Darien doesn't overwork me and sometimes he just let us talk." Rose said with a slight blush."Awwn you too are finding someone to be with." I teased which only made her blush more."It's not like that actually." She said lowly."Suzy, it's your turn to find your man, you're not getting any younger." I said in a mother like tone"I'm not into that yet, until my full recovery I think I'm just going to stay single for the moment." Suzy was brushing her hair."Eri, we both finally decided to share separate rooms. I think Suzy's well enough to take care of herself." Rose said."Really? Well then that's okay,
-Eri Sunville-I hadn't seen Don for about two days and it was getting kind of frustrating. Why is it when I realized I liked the guy that I no longer see him for a while.Hane had suggested he was probably busy with work since I was not going to work as his personal assistant yet. I would continue doing that soon.I checked the time on the wall clock of my room, it was 7p.m. If I didn't see him till the day ends, it'd be three days without even a sign of him.The knock from the door interrupted my thoughts. "Come in."I had expected to see Don but was disappointed when a maid I recognized walked in.She was bowing her head. "Mr Jones asked to see you." That made my insides jump in excitement."Really? Where is he?""He's in his room."I scurried out of my room to his. The door was closed and I felt slightly nervous. Was this how one felt being in love? This was my first time.I gave the door a light knock."Come in." That voice I'd missed for two whole days.I opened the door, closin
-Eri Sunville-"Eri, why did you come? We just left your place yesterday, is everything alright?" Suzy asked, her tone in a mixture of surprise and concern."Can't I come see how my sister is doing." I sauntered in, sitting on one of the sofas."You can, but I'm sure that's not why you're here." Rose ambled in from a door I had no idea where it led.She was right, I hadn't come to just greet them. When they'd come over yesterday, I didn't want to tell them about the kids yet because I just felt like Don could eavesdrop on our conversation, who knows.They both sat on the sofa opposite me. "What's up? Start spilling it out." Rose said.I explained everything that happened with the kiss and how awkward it had been between the both of us since then.They both had the widest smile on. "Oh my gosh, you've finally found the love of your life." Rose scampered towards me, crouching beside me."What love, this has nothing to do with love." I felt color rising to my cheeks."Awwn, I'm so happy
-Eri Sunville-"Are you sure you packed everything you're supposed to? I could've helped you pack, you know." Hane said, ambulating beside me while Don was already in the car."I told you, I don't feel comfortable with you packing my stuff for me, you might be my personal assistant but you're also a friend. And I'm sure I packed everything."Truthfully, I wasn't sure if I packed everything I needed. My thoughts were occupied by the kiss, I couldn't even think straight anymore.The fact I enjoyed the kiss was what I didn't understand. Was it because I liked him or just the kiss alone?He was the first guy I'd ever kissed so maybe I didn't know the fun in kisses, that's why I felt that way.A bodyguard held the door for me, which I entered, sitting comfortably beside Don who had his head burried on his phone.The door closed and our car started moving."How do you feel?" He asked in a less stern tone, his focus still on the phone."Huh?""Does your chest or throat still hurt?""No." Not
-Eri Sunville-I opened my eyes slowly, staring at the white light I could see. For a moment, I was confused.What was happening? Where was I? I didn't remember what had happened last.I felt a sharp pain in my chest and throat causing me to immediately recall everything that had happened with the pool.What happened next? I only recalled the pain I felt drowning with no one to ask for help, but then I don't know what happened afterwards."You're awake." A thick masculine voice I recognized to be Don rang in my eardrums.I turned to see him scurrying towards me from the door, a wide grin planted on his lips. He looked so pale and weak. I'd never seen him like that.I was so confused, especially when he gently leaned closer to give me a hug. "Gosh, I thought you were gone."He didn't pull from the hug. The door opened again, Darien and Hane ambulated in, a smile planted to their faces."What happened?" I asked when Don had finally released me from the hug."I should be asking you that.
"Hane, do you think I look pretty enough? This is my first time going to a dinner party with millionaires and billionaires." I checked myself in the mirror, twirling to see if the wine knee length gown that popped out my curves was best for the dinner party.When Don had told me one of his friends had invited him to a dinner party here in Australia and that I was going to come with him, I was so nervous.I'd never been to a rich person's dinner party, I had no idea how to dress for such occasion.Hane had assisted me in dressing. She picked my dress for me, and was going to help with my hair and makeup."Trust me, you're going to leave all the men drooling with that dress.I chuckled. "Thanks."I sat on the chair in front of the mirror while Hane walked towards me to start doing my makeup."Are you sure you can do these things? Makeup and hair?""Yes, trust me I'd make you look like the prettiest female in that party. All the male would leave their partners to come have a word with yo
She stared at her sister's teary eyes and could see how slim her 8 year old sister was."Sweethearts just hang in there. Mommy will get you something to eat, okay?" Her mom, Catherine Sunville assured them even though she was sure her mom didn't have any means of sorting things out.Although she was just 12, she could see how things had not been too good for her family.Ever since her father died when her younger sister was just born, things had been very tough for Catherine to cater for them.She had gotten a small job which was the highest she could get as she was an illiterate. She had lost her job 2 years ago and things had worsen for them since then. Catherine had relied on one of her billionaire's wife friend who would send her little change once in a while."Mom," she called out, sitting beside her mom on the brown leather chair that begged to be changed, her younger sister was sitting on Catherine's lap.They were sitting in the almost empty one room flat as Catherine had sold...
